- Where's my money?

Follow me.

What about my money?

It's the case you'll be handling.

Which is why

I summoned you here today.

What the

It's a fraud case, a big one.

And KANG Sukchul has been

assigned as the presiding judge.

But don't you know him

better than I do?

Yeah, but you've both been on

the student council in school.

Besides, the Chief Judge

is a stubborn bastard.

And unfortunately

I've been blacklisted

You think I'm any better

when I'm just a third-rate lawyer

who leeches off laborers?

Here's an advance.

It's 5 million Won.

I'm having dinner with

KANG Sukchul tomorrow.

So make sure you postpone

your return to Changwon, okay?

I'll call you.

So broker jobs are now

that a**hole's new gig? Sh*t

THE 7th TRIAL

THE CROSSBOW CASE, 2007

As you were waiting

for the elevator

someone called you.

You turned around and saw

the accused descending

from the 2nd floor, right?

Yes.

The accused who came down

the stairs approached you

with a crossbow

in his hands, correct?

Yes.

Prosecution?

Continue the cross-examination.

The accused raised his crossbow

and aimed it at you, correct?

At that time I was too surprised

to think straight.

Anyway, the accused had

What are you

Judge PARK!

Judge PARK!

- Who are you!

- Are you okay?

Take good care of that.

Call the police and hold him

so he doesn't get away.

I have a question

for the witness.

How did the arrow extracted from

your abdomen get a blunt tip?

That I don't know.

Anyway, at that time

Witness, you're lying, right?

Please remain from throwing

slandering comments at me.

Even during the course

of the tenure-track reinstatement trial,

the witness has

constantly been lying.

Stop. Can't you see

the victim wants to settle?

Order in the courtroom!

During that trial, the witness neglected

his duty to preside a court

according to

Article 103 of the Constitution

and Artic1e 1 of

the Civil Procedure Act requiring

all trial procedures to adhere to

the principle of truth and integrity.

Mr. KIM, he is

the Prosecution's witness.

You can cross-examine him on

matters only related to the case.

Mr. PARK,

do you acknowledge this?

Mr. KIM,

are you challenging me?

Why won't you

let me ask questions?

They are related

to the key factor of this case!

The tenure-track reinstatement

trial is irrelevant to this case

and should not be treated here

as a subject for examination.

I am just pointing out my motive

for taking a crossbow with me.

If only the witness had

given me a fair trial,

this would never have happened.

I object, your Honor.

Sustained.

Mr. KIM, please stop.

I want you to object

to this trial.

I said, I want you to

object to this trial!

It's your decision to make.

Your Honor

I object to this trial.

You're fired.

Are you still working

for that newspaper?

Whew, you've become

one hot cutie?

Does that mean

I was never hot before?

You were always running around

in short hair and sneakers.

Let's get some tea

somewhere.

You must be joking!

We're going for a drink!

Love the sound of that?

Let's go!

Ms. JANG!

Mrs. KIM!

I just met an old friend.

This is PARK Jun,

an attorney

Good afternoon.

Ah Good afternoon.

I also have a case here

That was a ridiculous trial

Was it?

Good day

You two seem close.

We met while I was

working on a story.

And how do you two

know each other?

I met him once as my husband

wanted to hire him.

Anyway

Why didn't you take the case?

Who shoots a judge

with a crossbow?

It's like a fight between

David and Goliath.

David throws stones

with all his might,

but the armored Goliath

never budges.

Wait, wait.

This is a $20,000 phone call.

Yo, LEE, did you book

the appointment?

The appointment's been cancelled.

- Cancelled?

- Uh, well

Yeah, okay. Judges and lawyers

shouldn't meet anyway.

- We'll just go ahead with things.

- The case went to another attorney.

So I need the money back.

Are those sons-of-b*tches

kidding me?!

Anyway, the money

Money? Yeah, I'll return it!

But it'll just take me a year!

Those sons-of-b*tches?

Goddamn it

Let's go. You're drunk.

Don't feel like it.

Leave if you want to.

Can I sleep over?

I'd love to sleep at

a pretty divorcee's place.

You just sexually harassed me.

Then arrest me.

Yeah, okay. Let's go!

Not bad to be arrested

for sexual harassment.

We're here.

We're here?

Sh*t, nice place, let's go!

On, no.

As for you

The 24-hour sauna over there.

That's where you're going!

I'm sick of motels and saunas?

Jun!

I hate them.

Jun!

I'm not kidding. From motel to sauna,

sauna to motel

I'm sick of it!

Hey, Jun!

It won't be easy

finding a lawyer.

Even the MINBYUN-Lawyers

for a Democratic Society

won't have anyone

to represent you.

Professor KIM does have

an attitude issue.

You shouldn't be saying that,

Mrs. KIM.

I agree.

Personally, it was liberating

when he fired his attorney.

I know. But he's only making

his 1ife more difficu1t.

Professor KIM is a hero

to all us judicial victims.

If only there's an attorney

who could be a good buffer

between him and the bench

There is a perfect person

But Mrs. KIM doesn't

seem to like him

Hello, I'm PARK Jun.

Hello.

I'm surprised you're here

when you've turned down my offer.

Why did you come to me again?

While turning down

distinguished attorneys?

They all wanted me to apologize

and settle when I'm innocent.

But you did commit a crime.

You shot a man with a crossbow?

But I didn't!

I didn't shoot him.

Sorry to ask, but

are you an alcoholic?

Don't write that down?

But we're supposed to

Don't tell them to break

the rules, you're a lawyer.

f*** the rules?

Write it all down?

All rules must be abided by.

Good! Write what he just said!

Write that down?

Like, 'rules must be abided by.'

It's a problem

when they are broken.

But the law itself is beautiful.

The law is beautiful?

Then can you say the same

for the National Security Law?

Didn't I tell you to stop writing

down our conversation?

I know nothing about

the National Security Law.

I'm just saying that we live in

a constitutional state and that

our Criminal Law was made well.

And that includes

our Criminal Procedure Act

The law is nothing but crap,

okay?

Take a good look at our history.

The law is nothing but

involuntary submission following

a series of aggression!

Did you come to argue with me?

Are you claiming that

the law is useless?

What I'm saying is,

the law is full of contradictions?

The law's just like mathematics.

If the question is accurate,

the answer will be as well.

No contradiction can exist.

You are one hell of

a conservative man.

Yes, I am conservative.

Conservatism is about following

socially agreed principles.

Why should this be a problem?

That's why I will show those

law-breaking judges

a lesson using the law itself.

I'm sure you'll be fine

without me.

What a bunch of bullshit!

Awe sh*t

LEE will get on my case again.

Sh*t

I really worked hard to change
