why come see you?

I don't know where to begin??

You trying to squeeze

some last pennies out of me?

I'm talking about

helping each other.

Get in. Let's talk on the way.

You look quite worn out.

How are things?

You showed up after

5 years to ask me that?

Listen, you don't have to

make things complicated.

I'm not coming to you

with empty hands.

A month after the election

on Independence Day

there'll be a special pardon.

And another on Thanksgiving.

I arranged everything for you

to come out then.

I'm mad dog Byun Jae-wook.

You know me.

I can't bear a false accusation.

Got something up your sleeve?

Why go overboard like this?

I remember you were

at least a man of sense.

There is nothing

a framed ex-prosecutor can't do.

You still don't get it, do you?

You put yourself in this mess.

Please save me.

I'll confess everything.

Stand up.

You should've acted

more like a man.

I can't?. ff,breathe??

5 years ago, that night

I told you to hand

Lee Jin-seok over to Yang.

Don't you remember?

If you had listened to me

none of this would

have happened.

Don't blame me.

Give that testimony in court.

I did this sh*t for 25 years.

Don't you remember

who taught you?

You can't get me.

Still the same,

you and your bluffing.

Do you still secretly put

water in your soju?

You act so manly,

but you're a weak bastard.

Alright then.

See you in court.

You look really terrible.

Don't you want to spend

the rest of your term in peace?

Here.

He's just someone

you met in prison.

You come first.

Mr. Woo, a word please!

You're summoned as a witness,

what will you testify?

The truth is that I'm not sure why

I was called at this critical time.

They say Byun will reveal

the true offender.

I know nothing about this.

But if he was falsely accused,

I hope he can prove himself innocent

and return to society.

Any comment on

the campaign slush fund?

Nothing further to say.

How do you feel right now?

Please say something!

No. 3820!

Depart for the court, come out!

Captain!

- What is it?

- Warden wants to see you.

- What for?

- I don't know, sir.

Stand against the wall.

You stay right there.

Young-cheol!

Hey buddy.

Young-cheol!

Weren't you transferred?

I am sorry, sir.

I truly am.

What is with you?

What happened?

Guard! Guard!

Anyone there? Damn it!

The court will have a recess due to

a delay in the defendant's arrival.

We will resume in half an hour.

What?

I understand.

What's going on?

He was stabbed.

What?

I get a strong sense that my life

is screwed because of you mo.

Why on earth

did I listen to you?

Goddamn it.

What should we do?

We? Who are we?

You think I'm your mate?

Sorry for keeping you.

We'll wrap it up soon.

It's okay.

Don't worry too much,

Congressman.

I don't worry about you.

You always think one step ahead.

Why should I be worried?

ls this Korean Air?

I want the earliest flight ticket

to Koreatown in the US!

Wherever works fine.

The closest one to K-Town!

Why's it so expensive?

Damn it!

I don't think we can

proceed like this.

Don't you think, prosecutor?

Can we wait a bit longer?

The defendant's condition

has not been officially reported.

There's no reason

to kill any more time.

The court will adjourn

due to the defendant's absence

and will be rescheduled later.

Please wait, your honor!

I am sorry.

Something happened on the way.

I apologize, your honor.

I see.

You should keep to the schedule.

The court is resumed.

First, witness for the defense...

Mr. Han Chi-won?

Mr. Han.

Did you work for Far East

Construction 5 years ago?

Yes, I did.

Then you must've been close

to the victim, Lee Jin-seok.

Of course.

We shared life's

joys and sorrows.

What was he like, Lee Jin-seok?

A good, sensitive man.

A rare thing in that field.

But he suffered breathing problems

and couldn't even run to catch a bus.

He always carried an inhaler.

- An inhaler?

- Yes.

By an inhaler, do you mean

a nebulizer for asthmatics?

Yes, that's right.

Then that nebulizer must've

been indispensable to him.

Of course!

He'd die instantly without it.

As he can't breathe.

Understood, thank you.

Witness, did you know

Jang Hyun-seok, president

of Far East Construction?

I sure did.

He was like a big brother to me.

I worked for him at the scene

of the police assault case

and recently

on an election campaign.

Which campaign office

did you work for?

Am I fully protected here?

Witness, be assured.

Thank you, your honor.

The campaign office for

Mr. Woo Jong-gil over there.

Can you specify your role there?

I delivered boxes full of cash from

Mr. Jang to Mr. Woo's campaign office.

Do you have evidence

for what you just said?

I have pictures on Facebook

from the bird sanctuary protest

and my days on the campaign.

I submit this material as evidence.

No further questions.

Prosecutor, please proceed.

Mr. Han Chi-won.

Can you confirm that everything

you just said is the truth

I've never lied in my life.

ls it true that Jang Hyun-seok's

slush fund

was used as campaign money

for Woo Jong-gil?

Yes, it is 1000/o accurate.

Thank you.

No further questions.

Yes.

Hey. What are you doing?

Are you a prosecutor

or a defense attorney?

I'm trying to reveal

the truth as prosecutor.

You realize you're stepping

into very dangerous waters?

Yes, I do.

But I am certain about this.

Let's continue.

Alright.

Let's see where it leads us.

Yes, your honor.

Next...

Witness for the prosecution,

Mr. Woo Jong-gil, please come forward.

I solemnly swear to tell

nothing but the truth

and will be punished

if I do otherwise.

Prosecutor, the witness is yours.

Witness, how would you describe

your relationship with Jang?

He's one of my supporters,

but not a personal relation.

These documents show that

Jang was charged four times

from 1988 to 2006 for organized violence

and circulation of illegal funds.

But all of his cases were

dropped by the same prosecutor.

Tell me.

What name is written as prosecutor?

Do you feel reluctant to say it?

It's my name.

But how is this related to

my testifying as a witness?

I am saying that you're not

unconnected to Lee's death.

Then you should reveal the circumstances of

his death at the prosecutor's office.

Why keep straying from the issue?

And I remind you,

I'm a witness for the prosecution

who should receive your protection.

Identify well who's friend or foe.

Do I really have to explain

A to Z about the trial?

Mr. Prosecutor?

No further questions.

Defendant,

He's one of my supporters,

but not a personal relation.

Yes, of course.

Mr. Woo, who do you think

killed Lee Jin-seok?

Isn't his death the reason

you wear that uniform?

Then why do you think

I killed Lee Jin-seok?

I guess you would know best.

That's not for me to answer.

For every homicide,

there should be a motive.

The one who benefits

from the victim's death

is usually the one

we identify as a suspect.

So in this homicide case,
