An attorney, a metropolitan investigation officer, and a loan shark.
Find out in detail why they're together and what they're plotting.
Chairman, Attorney Lee Han Sin and Chief Cheon Su Beom know each other.
Cheon Su Beom?
Cheon Su Beom is the correction officer who stopped Myeong Seop's parole, right?
The one we drove out by framing him.
Yes.
He was arrested at the time, and he's still in prison.
Also, while Attorney Lee Han Sin was a correction officer,
he followed Chief Cheon Su Beom like a father.
I wondered why that bastard did that.
I couldn't understand it, no matter how much I tried.
But now I understand.
He approached me intentionally from the start.
[Emergency Medical Center]
Please make way!
Excuse us!
That punk who ran wild without fear
I wonder if he's learned to be fearful now.
Yes, this should be enough warning for him.
Did you starve? Why don't you apply more pressure?
I-I'm sorry.
Gosh, it finally feels like a proper massage.
- Attorney Seo.
- Yes?
How about dropping the charges?
Oh, the thing is
Well, not yet.
- Not yet?
- Ms. Choi Won Mi's schedule is so packed, so-
Are you her manager? Why are you managing her schedule?
I'll take care of it.
Stop acting so scatterbrained
- and get the charges dropped first. Got it?
- Yes.
Gosh, don't massage me in my ticklish areas!
How could this be
Aigoo, goodness
Attorney
Attorney, please wake up
You can't die like this, please
Oh, no. Oh, no
Do you know this person?
He's my attorney
but he suddenly got into an accident
What do we do
What do we do
Why are you here, Attorney?
[Parole Examiner Lee]
[Episode 5]
W-What happened?
I was about to go into my house when they suddenly attacked me.
If it was just one person, I would've been fine.
But I couldn't handle it since they were coming at me at once.
How many were there?
Three?
Or was it four? Anyway.
Did you report to the police?
Gosh, why would I report it to the police? It's so obvious who was behind it.
- Chairman Ji Dong Man?
- Yeah.
I told you messing with Chairman Ji Dong Man could be dangerous!
Gosh, seriously.
Is it this room?
- Why did you throw a tangerine?
- Attorney Lee!
- Oh, my gosh!
- You're not dead, right?
How did you know to come here, President Choi?
I'm quite interested in Attorney Lee.
You could find out if you're interested enough.
Attorney Lee, I'm here.
Who are you?
Do you know me?
Attorney Lee,
you've watched too many dramas.
Do you suddenly feel reluctant now that it's time to hand over the building?
Building?
I don't understand what you're saying.
It's okay. You don't need to know.
Mr. Baek, please take out what's in your coat.
Attorney Lee, all you need to do is lend me your thumb.
President Choi!
President Choi, it's you, right?
Oh, now, I remember!
- All of a sudden?
- Yeah, I suddenly remember.
I haven't finished looking over the contract yet.
Just sign the contract and hand over the building.
I should still review the contract.
Fine then.
Hurry up and look over it.
Also, you better not die before you sign the contract, Attorney Lee.
Say ah.
You eat one, too.
Let's go.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Who are you?
Your acting was too awkward to fool President Choi.
Was it?
Then, I better practice acting a bit more before I meet with Chairman Ji Dong Man.
I can't let him know that I was a bit intimidated by what happened.
[Sinsung Daily]
People die in car accidents,
in a robbery,
and from falling into a manhole.
Human lives are so trivial.
By the way, I was surprised to hear you were coming.
Is my visit that surprising?
I never thought I'd get to see you again.
Of course, I was surprised to hear you were visiting me.
I thought you came back as a ghost.
So, how do you feel?
Have you come to your senses now?
Did you come back to apologize or something?
I should apologize only when I've done something wrong.
You haven't come to your senses yet.
Then, why did you come?
I thought you might be curious about how I'm doing.
As you can see,
I'm fine. I was lucky.
You say you were lucky?
Do you think you're still alive because you're lucky?
I said human lives are trivial.
Since I received such a great present,
I'll make sure to repay you soon.
Cheon Su Beom.
You're doing this because you're angry about Cheon Su Beom.
It's all in the past.
Nothing is more foolish than ruing your life over the past-
So, you know.
That's why
I'll see it
to the end.
That rude bastard.
You may really end up dead at this rate.
Hey! Mr. Yang, come down!
I said come down from there!
There is a suicide attempt at 127 Yeogok-ri.
There is a suicide attempt at 127 Yeogok-ri.
Wait, isn't that nearby?
Any patrol cars in the vicinity, go check out the scene.
Hey, what are you doing?
We're not assigned to it anyway.
Is this time to discuss that? A person is about to die!
You're slacking off! Seriously.
Turn the car around!
Geez, all right.
It's not me!
I didn't steal it!
Okay!
I got it. Let's talk after you get down here.
What do you mean you get it?
You won't believe me anyway!
I believe you, I believe you! I believe you!
As if.
I don't believe you.
Do something!
How will you deal with the consequences?
You don't even treat me like a human being
and always threaten me!
I'm innocent!
I'm really innocent!
- What's with you?
- Sir!
Please calm down. I'm a cop.
What's going on?
There was a bit of a misunderstanding,
but it should be resolved soon.
Hey, hey, hey! Even police officers are here!
Get down here and talk!
I really didn't steal it!
I really didn't steal it!
Okay, I got it! I got it!
Hey! Hey, hey!
No! Don't, don't!
Jeong Ho!
Your father is
I'm so sorry
No!
[Yonggeol Industry]
You're Yang Bok Gyu's probation officer, right?
Yes.
I never expected something like this to happen.
How do I write a report on this?
Did you notice anything off about him recently?
No.
Yang Bok Gyu was hardworking.
He was determined to do his best to turn over a new leaf.
When was the last time you met Yang Bok Gyu?
Well
it was about a month ago.
One month?
I have so many probation cases to manage,
and Yang Bok Gyu was granted parole release on the condition of employment.
So, he's partially managed by a correctional partner company.
Yes, I know you go through a lot.
We also complain when we have tons of cases.
But still, we should still do our job.
I'm sorry.
CEO.
Let's talk.
O-Oh, me?
I'll make the coffee. You can get back to work.
Okay.
Aigoo, we have important guests, but I don't have much to offer you.
But I'm well-known for making really good instant coffee.
What kind of employee was Yang Bok Gyu?
Well,
Mr. Yang was a special employee.
Special?
What do you mean by that?
Well, how should I explain this?
Young Officer, you've been in the military, right?
Yes.
Then, you must know about "special-care soldiers."
I do.
Mr. Yang was similar to a special-care soldier.
Since he started working here on condition of employment for his parole,
he struggled to adjust, so we had to pay special attention to him.
Yang Bok Gyu insisted on his innocence before attempting suicide.
Do you have any guesses as to why?
Well, the thing is
There was a theft.
You didn't really need to bring that up.
A theft?
Yes.
It's a bit embarrassing.
What are you doing here at this hour?
Oh, the thing is
I was out of coffee.
Okay, you may leave.
Have a good night.
Gosh, this makes no sense!
Where did it go?
What are you looking for?
My watch!
I definitely put it in here when I left work, but it disappeared.
A watch?
CEO.
What are you doing?
Can't you tell?
I'm digging through a thief's room.
Hey, where did you hide my watch?
- Did you already sell it?
- What watch?
Why are you asking me about your watch?
Why, bastard? I'm asking you because you stole it!
Damn it. This is why you should never take ex-convicts.
CEO.
How dare you look at me defiantly!
You got on my nerves as is, so this is perfect.
I'll do whatever it takes to send you back to prison.
You got that?
I really I really didn't do it!
Oh? Look down. Look down, you bastard!
I told you it really wasn't me!
He ran out screaming that he was innocent and he didn't steal.
Unable to control his temper, he did what he did.
I told him so many times to keep his temper in check, goodness.
Did you find the watch?
I didn't.
Maybe he hid it somewhere really well.
Or maybe he already sold it since it's valuable.
If it's a luxury watch, it must have a serial number.
If you give us the number, we'll look for it.
The serial number?
I'm sure it's somewhere.
Where did I put that again?
Well, I'll look for it.
Yes
An important meeting was held between the President and the opposition party leader.
This meeting was to discuss important political issues of late
and to consider plans for future collaboration.
- You're early.
- Sunbae, please come in.
What's wrong with your arm?
Oh, I just fell.
It'll get better soon.
- Are you okay?
- Of course.
By the way,
I said I'd buy you something expensive. Why insist on coming here?
I craved pork rinds from this place since it's been a while.
It's been a while. It's nice.
Ma'am, please give us some pork rinds.
Okay.
By the way, what about Hae Seong? How's Hae Seong doing?
The surgery went well, and he's gotten much better.
That's good to hear.
- According to the experts
- Sunbae, if you're grateful, just say so.
Fine. Thanks.
Does it make you happy to hear me say thanks?
Of course, it does.
Bringing you the next news.
There was a suicide attempt at an SME today.
The police determined that a worker, released on parole on condition of employment,
was accused of being a thief, but he claimed his innocence before attempting suicide.
The suicidal worker was immediately transported to the hospital
but is currently reported to be unconscious.
That's why ex-convicts are a problem.
Why do they keep releasing people like him on parole?
He should complete his sentence.
Regular people have a tough time finding jobs as is,
and yet they release ex-convicts and find them employment?
It's absolutely ridiculous.
It's so unfair for those who aren't convicts!
To solve prison overcrowding issues, the Ministry of Justice
You also know Yang Bok Gyu, right?
Yes, I do.
He was recently released on parole on condition of employment.
He promised to take it as his last chance and live diligently.
Sunbae, did you actually believe that?
Do you know why I'm such a regular at this pork rind restaurant?
When you keep chewing on the pork rinds,
you can taste the different flavors, from sweet to bitter.
Inmates are the same.
If you watch them for a long time,
you learn things you didn't know about them.
The true nature of who they are, hidden beneath
their label as ex-convicts.
But what's there could be fake, too.
They could pretend to repent and act like they've changed,
but they haven't in reality.
We've seen so many like that.
Yeah, you're right.
But Yang Bok Gyu was different.
Also, something bothers me about it.
What's bothering you?
My son will be born soon.
Is that so? Congratulations-
That's why
I I'm
really going to sever ties with you.
I don't want to tell my son that he has a grandfather like you.
I'll tell my son that his grandfather died.
And I'll consider you dead as well,
so don't make promises you can't keep and live however you want.
Jeong Ho
Jeong Ho!
Correction Officer,
let me see my son just one more time.
This time
This time may be the last.
Just one more time
- It won't be your last.
- Pardon?
If you change
you will have an opportunity to meet your son again.
Will I really have another opportunity?
Yes.
If you truly repent and change.
[Sangbu Prison]
Attorney Lee?
Oh, that's great. Great pose! One more time.
That's good. One more time.
Okay, that's good.
This time, let's do a Justice Girl pose.
Okay.
Ready.
I will defend justice.
Defend justice.
Defend justice, yeah. You're doing great.
Gosh, you're all doing great. Wow, so many people here.
I will defend justice!
Man, I wish you'd stop with this kind of concept.
Who are you to be doing this?
Me? No need to be curious about that.
Everyone, take a 10-minute break and leave the room.
- Get coffee.
- I'm sorry.
Why did you come all the way here again?
I came to check your schedule.
How ridiculous. People would think you're my manager.
Looks like you're free tomorrow. Go with me to drop the charges.
No, I can't. I have my own personal schedule tomorrow.
What personal schedule?
Why would I tell you that?
- Do it next week.
- Next week is no good.
Why can't I do it next week?
I can't really explain the reasons.
In any case, you need to drop the charges this week. You have to.
You said you checked my schedule!
You know I have work every day this week!
So, just cancel what you're doing tomorrow and go with me to drop your charges!
I don't care about anything else!
Just go!
What brings you here?
I came for an inspection.
An inspection?
What department are you from?
The Ministry of Justice.
A worker here recently attempted suicide by throwing himself over, right?
I'm here about that case.
Well, let me call the CEO first.
Stop right there.
Don't you know what an inspection is?
I'll look around quietly so you don't have to call him.
Oh, okay.
- Let's go.
- Okay.
Your acting has improved.
I practiced acting while watching dramas.
In any case, where is the CEO's office
Is that it?
I'll look around inside,
so go directly to the CEO's office.
- Me?
- Yes, while I meet with the employees,
please keep CEO Yong busy.
Also, ask CEO Yong some questions and see what he says.
Okay, sure. Got it.
Is anyone here?
Why are you doing this?
Come on, I told you not to worry. Why do you keep doing this?
Why get scared over that when you're a professor who knows the law so well?
Who are you?
Oh, hello.
- I'm here from the Ministry of Justice.
- J-Justice?
- Hang up, hang up.
- The Ministry of Justice?
- Yes.
- Why would the Ministry of Justice
Well, it was for an inspection.
Oh, I see. Please take a seat.
- Okay.
- Please take a seat.
- Please enjoy.
- Thank you.
You must be tired coming all the way here.
I'm Yonggeol Industry CEO Yong Jin Sang.
Yes. I'm Hwang Ji Sun.
It's nice to meet you.
So, what brings you to my company from the Ministry of Justice?
Yes, I'm from the Parole Examiner Lee Han Sin's attorney office.
I'm here because I have a few questions regarding
the parolee working at Yonggeol Industry, who attempted suicide.
You came because of that, I see.
If you have any questions, please ask away.
By chance, is it okay if I film this like an interview?
The basics of inspection entail evidence collection.
O-Oh, okay, go ahead. Film it as you please.
Okay. Thank you.
[Employee Lounge]
Yang Bok Gyu.
I see, you know him.
Hello, I'm Parole Examiner Lee Han Sin.
Why didn't you do anything when Yang Bok Gyu stole
the CEO's expensive watch?
The possibility of that didn't cross my mind, then.
After learning that the CEO's watch was missing,
I realized that's what Mr. Yang was up to then.
Basically, we were blindsided.
I set the deck to forget his past mistakes and live well
and yet, he caused trouble again.
"Set the deck"?
Oh, I guess I must have misspoken.
I was trying to say we provided
the perfect environment for him to adjust to life after being released.
I see.
But did you come by yourself?
Oh, no. The Parole Examiner came as well.
He said he would come here after meeting with the employees first.
No, it's all right.
Let him meet the employees.
Were you close to Yang Bok Gyu?
Well, somewhat.
We used the same dorm.
I heard it's been about six months since you started working here
after being released on parole on the condition of employment.
Are you facing any discomfort or difficulties?
Not at all.
The CEO treats us well and takes good care of us.
Lieutenant, did Yang Bok Gyu say or do anything strange
before attempting suicide?
You won't believe me anyway!
You don't even treat me like a human being
and always threaten me!
Threaten
I think he said he was being threatened.
I heard Yang Bok Gyu said he was being
threatened before he jumped off.
Have you heard or do you know anything about that?
It's okay. You can tell me.
To tell you the truth
Hey! Mr. Yu, what are you doing over there?
- No, he never received threats.
- Hey, come over here! Geez, seriously.
Yes, yes, I'm coming!
Come here.
You should be working right now!
I set the deck to forget his past mistakes and live well
and yet, he caused trouble again.
Set the deck?
Huh? Do you know that saying, too, Attorney?
It's a slang used by gamblers.
It means to set the table for a game.
By chance
I used to be a correction officer.
Oh, right, right.
But did you find anything strange about CEO Yong?
Something strange, you say
Well, I shook hands with CEO Yong
and noticed his hands were very soft, unlike his appearance.
It was unnaturally soft.
- He's definitely a gambler, then.
- A gambler?
Yes. Of course, your hands get shiny and soft if all you do is look at cards like this.
That's it.
The company is small and struggling, but the CEO is draped in luxury goods.
Where do you think he got the money?
Now that I think about it, the luxury watch that was supposedly stolen
seems a bit out of the league for a factory CEO.
Let's change our destination.
- To where?
- Let's go to President Choi.
Why do you want to meet President Choi?
If we don't go, she'll come to our office.
Her office is in the opposite direction, though.
I won't ask you to come inside with me, so let's go.
Then, I'll take you there right away.
♫ It's drifting away ♫
♫ Where my love is ♫
Gosh, Attorney Lee, you're here!
Come in, come in.
If you didn't come by today, I was going to pay you a visit.
Gosh. That's why I came to visit you first.
Gosh, Attorney Lee. Not only are you handsome and smart, you're so quick-witted.
Mr. Baek, what did we do with the contract from last time?
What do you mean, contract?
Oh, oh, that contract.
I haven't had a chance to look through the contract yet.
Attorney Lee, I think your jokes are going too far.
No, no, wait, wait.
I've prepared something else for you instead.
Something else, what?
I'll introduce you to a guest.
He's what you call an "Easy Target" around here.
He's a CEO of a SME who loves to gamble.
(Small to medium-sized enterprise)
Gamble?
Are you saying I should open a gambling house
and swindle him out of his money?
Yes, that's right.
Are you
not feeling it?
Yeah, honestly, I'm not feeling it.
- That requires a lot of work and is inconvenient.
- W-Wait.
He's an Easy Target with a lot of money.
A lot?
Gosh, I'm hungry.
When is the Attorney coming back?
It's not like he went on a date with President Choi
What the heck
He said we should eat together.
Attorney Lee! I'm in big trouble, Attorney Lee!
Aigoo, what brings you here, Ms. Choi?
Where did Attorney Lee go? He didn't pick up his calls, either.
He went out to take care of some business. But what brings you here?
I need to meet Attorney Lee right now.
Attorney Seo came all the way to my photo shoot and threatened me.
T-Threatened you?
Yes. He said if I don't drop the charges by tomorrow, he would-
What did he say he would do if you didn't?
Attorney Lee!
- Oh, yes, Ms. Choi, let's sit down and talk.
- Y-Yes Ms. Choi
So, he pressured you to drop the charges specifically by tomorrow?
Yes. I told him several times that I won't,
but he's like a brick wall. Nothing I say gets through to him.
There is a reason why Attorney Seo is rushing you.
Why?
A candidate like Chairman Ji, whose parole review was suspended, needs to reapply.
That means he needs to start over from the preliminary review.
The deadline to drop the charges
is the day before the preliminary review held once a month.
And that preliminary review is this week.
So, if I delay dropping the charges by one more day,
Ji Dong Man's parole will be delayed by another month?
Yes, that's right.
No wonder he was being so fierce.
If Ji Dong Man is enraged,
forget my Justice Girl image.
He'll kill me
Would it be better to just drop the charges?
Attorney Lee, say something!
How about you go on a trip instead?
What trip all of a sudden?
Trips are fun when you take off out of the blue.
Not somewhere too close. It would be good if you go somewhere far.
Actually, I do have a photo shoot in Italy.
Hey!
The customer can't answer the call right now.
Gosh, this is driving me nuts!
She's not home and isn't picking up her calls. Where is she?
Did she go into hiding so she doesn't have to drop the charges?
Gosh, damn it.
Gosh, this is driving me crazy!
Where is she?
So, did you look into where Choi Won Mi is?
Photo shoot? She already did that yesterday.
She's going to Italy? When?
Today? What time today?
Oh, okay. Hang up.
Gosh, damn it! This is driving me insane!
No, no, move, move!
Gosh, seriously!
Move, move, move!
Move, move!
Hey, stop right there!
Hey!
Come here, come here! Wait, wait!
You thought I couldn't catch you, huh?
- What's wrong with you!
- What do you mean?
What the
Did you put on a disguise?
- Your disguise looks so real.
- Are you crazy?
What are you doing?
Mr. Hwang, why are you here?
- What?
- Where's Choi Won Mi?
Why are you looking for her here?
I asked where Choi Won Mi was!
- This man keeps touching me!
- This man?
- Yes!
- It's not that.
I thought I knew her and touched her.
Where's Choi Won Mi! Choi Won Mi!
No, Choi Won Mi! Where's Choi Won Mi?
You know everything! Don't hold my feet! Let go of me!
Hey, Choi Won Mi!
It's nice to come out to the outskirts, huh?
Yes.
It feels like my headache has vanished.
But are you okay?
Oh, yes.
♫ The morning comes to me and extends its hand ♫
No, Choi Won Mi!
Hey, where's Choi Won Mi?
- You know everything! Don't hold my feet! Let go of me!
- I'm right here!
Choi Won MI!
♫ It doesn't leave me ♫
Here we are.
We're here. Italy.
[Italy]
Oh, my. It really is Italy.
Attorney Lee, you're so tactful.
You're so cool.
Take it easy, then. I'll give you a call later.
Hey, Attorney Lee.
You must be tired from driving.
Do you want to have some ramen before you go?
I would like to,
but I quit ramen.
Come on, how about coffee?
I quit that, too.
- You drank three or four cups last time at your office.
- Come to my office, then.
Okay.
Drive safely.
[Jungbu Prison]
Are you saying my parole review was delayed
because you couldn't sway her?
Yes. That's how it turned out.
So, Attorney Seo, you're telling me I have to waste
another month locked up here?
Yes, that is correct.
I told you to take care of it meticulously.
What are you capable of handling?
I'm sorry.
And you still haven't found Choi Jeong Hak?
We're still searching, but we haven't found him yet.
You also let Choi Jeong Hak get away last time, right?
Yes.
It doesn't have much meat on it
but it's a waste to throw it away. This is
what you call a chicken rib.
Take it.
[Gyeruk: Chicken Rib]
- Pardon?
- I said, take it.
Okay.
Hold it up to your face. Like this.
- Like this?
- It suits you.
If you weren't Chief Seo's nephew, I would've already fired you.
I can't stand the sight of you. Get out!
Make sure to take care of Choi Jeong Hak, so he doesn't become
a hindrance to Myeong Seop.
Chicken rib?
- What are you looking at?
- Let us
do our job properly.
I'll handle my business, so don't worry about me.
Worry about your job.
Attorney Seo, how long do you think he'd be patient with you?
I'm talking about the Chairman.
You got a call.
Yeah, are you ready?
It's about time the drug is wearing off for the druggie.
Report to me right away when you figure out his location.
Seriously, he's an ex-gangster.
How dare he try to lecture me?
They found his location?
I'm getting stressed from both sides. It's driving me nuts!
[Jangwonjang]
Sunbae, Sunbae!
- His phone turned on.
- What?
Choi Jeong Hak!
- Really?
- Yes.
[Current location]
Let's go.
Sir.
Sir, we're here.
Shit, what the
What are you doing over there?
What's this?
Jeong Hak.
- Who are you?
- That's not drugs. It's flour.
What's this?
Who are those bastards?
- Who are you to stop me?
- You can't go in here.
Don't you see the warning sign?
Leave.
I told you to leave.
What a couple of morons.
- Ju Mok.
- Yes.
I'm your opponent.
Hey- gosh!
You bastard!
Hey, you bastard!
Stop!
Goodbye, you druggie bastard.
Hey, Helmet!
I guess we were meant to cross paths.
We meet here again.
That bastard!
Gosh, I'm screwed.
Damn it! That rat!
Why have you been so out of touch?
So, what's up?
Something going on?
What?
You found one?
Okay!
Aigoo, you scared me! Why would you shout?
Anyway, I prepared the location and easy targets.
Just come on time with sufficient funds.
I'll send you the location through text. Yeah, yeah.
How long has it been since I went to a gambling house?
My fingers are itching to go already!
What the This is it?
Gosh, I can't be lacking in funds
Hello.
Why are you calling me at this hour?
Professor.
I have an emergency.
When will you pay me for the last job?
Payment?
How can you say that after handling it like that?
I told you to quietly make room for one more,
and the police showed up and drew the media.
So, are you saying you won't give me my money?
Right now isn't the time to talk about money.
What else would we talk about, then?
To be blunt, is that all my fault?
Hiring and raising a parolee doesn't do much for me.
All that happened because you said to open a spot for
Hyangbaek Construction CEO's son!
Stop bringing up Hyangbaek Construction!
Wait, are you trying to keep all the money from Hyangbaek Construction for yourself?
So, that's what's going on!
Shit
H-Hello?
Gosh, this is why I can't deal with such an ignorant low-life.
What the
Crazy. What a freak.
- The customer isn't answering the phone right now.
- Oh-ho?
After the beep
Is she really trying to skip out on my money?
Geez, what would I gamble with later?
[Revised Criminal Procedure Act]
With the uptick in retaliatory crimes against people involved in cases,
the Criminal Procedure Act was partially amended in 2016.
New personal information protection measures for case-related individuals, including victims,
were introduced to view and copy litigation records.
There are rumors that Professor Kim Nae Gyeong is abusing
the employment-based parole
to get the children of rich families out of prison sooner.
[Employment-based Parole]
Come on. I told you, you don't have to worry.
Why would you get scared about that
when you're a professor who knows the law so well?
Gosh, how did you know this?
As you said, Oh Young Hwan, the son of Hyangbaek Construction's CEO,
got hired by Yonggeol Industry after his parole.
The judge ensured that the personal info of individuals involved in the case,
such as their names, wouldn't be disclosed.
So, in 2016, we
Lieutenant, it's me, Lee Han Sin.
I want you to repay me today for my bribe from last time.
Could you look into CEO Yong Jin Sang of Yonggeol Industry?
Also, well, what are you doing tonight?
Hey, Attorney Lee. Welcome.
That was quick.
When did you finish preparing all this?
Easy Targets need to be taken advantage of quickly.
He's the gambling house manager that Easy Target contacts often.
I thought he would get suspicious if the location changed,
so I requested the house manager's cooperation.
Cooperation?
You sure you didn't threaten him?
Threats or cooperation. What difference does it make?
It's important that he agreed to help us, right?
Oh, yes, o-of course.
You don't need to worry at all.
All right.
Here are the players I recruited. Say hi.
I'm Red Ear from Chungcheong.
Hey, don't lower your voice.
He's Red Ear because his ears are red.
I'm Half Ear from Jeju.
Hurry up and turn your head. Looks terrible.
He got caught cheating while gambling, and half of his ear got cut off.
He's only got half a ear left, so he's called Half Ear.
- President Choi, a moment.
- Yeah? Me?
What about the players' skills?
They're not top-notch since I had to recruit them quickly.
Still, they should be good enough to swindle an Easy Target.
But, Attorney Lee.
You didn't have me do all this for just a little bit of interest from this gambling ring, right?
Of course not.
- I wish you great earnings.
- Thank you.
- What an awesome vibe.
- What took you so long?
It was tough to recruit players. How could you make them wait?
Bastard, stop with the nagging.
Come here.
You checked their background, right?
I recruited especially easy targets.
Make sure to pay me plenty for giving you a seat.
Okay.
- Where's my seat?
- It's over there.
Then, shall we get started?
Here's a VIP.
It's nice to meet you. I see you've won a lot.
Let's get started right away.
Let's go.
- Fighting!
- Okay.
Why, what? Are you waiting for a call?
No, it's just habit.
By the way, Attorney Lee,
though it was cumbersome, I am grateful you brought me an easy target.
But what do you gain from this, Attorney Lee?
The truth.
The truth?
The truth that will clear the false charges against
Yang Bok Gyu, an employment-based parolee.
The truth that will clear his name.
I have no idea what you're saying, but to sum it up,
he's not just an easy target, but an evil easy target?
Yes, that's right.
Okay.
Stop right there!
Are you cheating right now?
- What are you doing?
- Do I look like a fool to you?
How dare you play tricks?
This crazy bastard is making up stories!
D-Do you have any proof?
Proof?
I do.
How could you call yourself a gambler
and still not know you'll see blood if you get caught cheating?
Sorry, sorry.
Do I look like a pushover just because I'm short?
I still won bronze in the Super Flyweight category at the
2000 National Sports Festival, you bastard!
How dare you try to cheat?
Are you sure you recruited the right players?
I told you I was rushed.
And you can't blame me right now. We need to fix this situation first.
I don't think you can fix this situation.
Hey.
It ruined my mood just because of this cheating asshole.
Hey.
I'm taking all of your gambling money.
That bastard
Be careful who you let in!
How dare you bring in a cheater?
Hey, over here!
Hello. The game isn't over, right?
Yes, join us.
Geez. I got lost in the area.
Thank you.
What the
Did you recruit more easy targets?
Huh? Yeah.
He said he was running late. Here he is.
The more easy targets there are, the better.
I'll be pulling out now.
Let's set the table again.
Young lady, give us all a round of drinks.
Reset the table!
Please distribute the cards while the game is still hot.
Wow, new guy.
You may be bad with directions, but you sure have a fiery personality.
Let's do so, then.
Hey. Let's proceed quickly. Go.
Well then, we'll get started.
♫ You're a megalomaniac ♫
♫ You're going to lose so many ♫
♫ Even if you cover my eyes and hide it ♫
♫ I'll show you ♫
♫ You're a megalomaniac ♫
♫ You don't deserve what you want now ♫
♫ You can push me away and try to hold me off ♫
♫ It won't work on me, megalomaniac ♫
[Parole Examiner Lee]
All right, everyone, freeze!
What is this situation!
If you caught that bastard, tell Myeong Seop to return.
Ahjumma, it's been a while.
Will you ever need to exchange bribes?
I said open your mouth wider.
Lee Han Sin's Achilles' heel is in the prison.
If I reveal that,
both you and your company are finished!
Is that a threat?
You remember this spot, right?
You didn't hire an attorney yet, did you?
I think you might need one.
