- I'm not finished.

Just be quiet for a moment.

Can't you see I'm speaking?

What do you two think

you're doing?

Go on, go!

Then where's the broken arrow

that the witness never found?

What?

Could the Prosecution have

put it away somewhere?

What do you mean by

'put away'?

I mean, could they have

destroyed evidence?

Mr. KIM!

- Prosecution, answer the question!

- Mr. KIM!

Are you the detective who

bagged the victim's clothes?

Yes I am.

Are these clothes exhibits

in the exact same state

as when found?

They display the same state.

Can you confirm whether

this shirt exhibit also is the same?

Yes.

Then why does this undershirt

have bloodstains on it,

while this shirt has none

despite an arrow penetration?

Can you explain?

I'm not sure. I guess

It didn't seep that far out.

Then can you explain this?

This thick padded vest exhibit

was worn over this shirt.

Why does this vest have

bloodstains on it?

I cannot give you

an exact explanation.

Why's that?

Because it requires

a scientific opinion.

Nothing further, your Honor.

Your witness, Prosecution.

Your Honor, the State will

not pursue a cross-examination.

Then I would like to ask

a question to the Prosecution.

I advise you to place

that question to me.

Every witness has revealed PARK's

statement as entirely false.

Yet the Prosecution is refusing

to cross-examine witnesses.

Have you just given up?

Or are you admitting I'm innocent?

If nothing is proven then

that means you're innocent.

You'll get your sentence

at the end of this trial.

I've been through

numerous judges

who repeatedly postponed

judgment calls

that led to quack sentences,

and then told me to appeal if I

was dissatisfied. Preposterous!

So please request Prosecution

to prove their point

right here, right now.

Prosecution, please respond.

The State believes sufficient

evidence have been presented.

The witnesses' testimonies have

been suggesting that all the

Prosecution's evidence are fa1se.

So what do you mean

by 'sufficient'?

If Prosecution can't prove their point,

then you will definitely be acquitted.

Therefore, it isn't a matter

you should be concerned of.

But I cannot help

but be concerned.

Whether PARK's wound

was se1f-inf1ict

or fabricated

by the Prosecution,

or if the witnesses are

committing perjury,

don't you want the truth?

Okay.

What do you mean, okay?

All I'm asking the Prosecution

is for a proper explanation.

Next

- The bloodstain verification

- Don't change the subject.

Mr. KIM, do not disrupt

the order in this court.

Prosecution has stated they have

presented sufficient evidence

and it is my job to decide

if this is true or not.

A bloodstain verification calls

for a judicial officer on site

who confirms evidence

in person.

But we cannot get the victim's

blood sample at this point.

It's just a simple request to

confirm whether the bloodstain

on the clothes exhibit matches

with PARK's blood.

There is no need for a judicial

officer's scene inspection.

All we need is

a blood verification.

Then how will we acquire

the victim's blood sample?

What do you mean?

The court can request

a blood sample.

And if the victim refuses,

a warrant can always be issued.

- Because it is inappropriate

- Inappropriate?!

Are you saying you undoubtedly

accept the bloodstained clothes

as evidence without

proper confirmation?

The Defense strongly motions for

a bloodstain verification.

Motion dismissed.

What do you mean,

'dismissed'?!

Your motion is dismissed.

Summons for PARK Bongju

will be determined

after the evaluation

of all witnesses.

Judge LEE Taewoo!

It's hard for you to take

this court seriously, right?

Mr. KIM!

You're way out of line!

You hold no intent to follow

the provisions in this book, right?

I will abide by the provisions.

Have you read the preparatory

pleadings I sent you on the 12th?

Which pleadings

are you referring to?

'Judge LEE's court strategy and

ulterior motive' titled one.

Yes, I've read it.

When did you?

PARK testified during

the original trial that the arrow

which struck him in the

abdomen had broken.

But none of the three arrows

presented here are broken.

Mr. KIM.

The evidence presented by

Prosecutor BAEK

fully conflicts with

the victim's testimony

Mr. KIM, I understand

what you're trying to prove.

Let me finish?

Order in the courtroom!

If Prosecutor BAEK Saemin

has destroyed evidence,

he should be held accountable

by Article 155 of the Criminal Law

or PARK Bongju for perjury

according to Article 152.

Either one has committed

a crime in court.

According to Article 234 of the

Criminal Procedure Act,

a public servant must press

charges against those

who have committed a crime.

Therefore, you are required to

act upon this responsibility

while exercising

your judicial duties.

Mr. KIM!

Only the judge has authority

to preside the court!

But isn't it your duty

to abide by the law?

Are you imposing your opinion?

I'm just 'urging' you to listen!

I will now decide

the next public trial date.

So you'll press charges

on the next public trial?

Please make sure you do

at the next trial.

Wait just a moment.

A constitutional appeal

The dismissal of a bloodstain

verification request

is unconstitutional as it violates

the right to be tried by law.

Submit this to the

Constitutional Court.

You should discuss these things

with me in advance?

How am I supposed to discuss it

with you when the verification

request was dismissed today?

It sounds like you were

waiting to be dismissed.

I've been through this

so many times,

I had to come prepared.

I'm not sure who's the attorney

here anymore!

Just make sure you discuss

things with me in advance.

Prof. KIM,

how was the trial today?

Exactly as you have

witnessed yourself.

You call this a trial?

It's just a bunch of bullshit!

- Professor, you did the right thing!

- Be strong!

How can you say that

when he shot a person?!

What the hell is your problem?

Are you crazy?

Jackass!

One, two, three, four

Professor? Thank you.

I just told them to follow

prison rules.

F***ing bastards!

Giving me disciplinary action

for teaching inmates how to dance!

At least they should have

the balls to admit

what they really want is

bribe money.

No unapproved business

on state-owned territory from now.

Dancing lessons are on me,

professor.

free of charge!

Now here are the basic steps.

One, two, three step

four step.

One, two, three step

four step.

Hey, you're pretty good.

Now, next are you hands.

Do like this.

Four beats forward,

four beats backwards.

What's most important

when you're released from prison is

a means to make a living, okay?

So when they let you out, go see

the list of women I give you.

Just do as I say and

Are you telling me I should

make a living out of adultery?

Look at it like this.

Their 1ives will be ruined

by a**holes anyway.

Just think of it as

doing them a favor.
