IHWA ATM NEW PRODUCT
MODEL NAME: WIAQ8521

The biggest strength of the 2022 model
of the automatic teller machine

developed by Ihwa ATM is…

Before I reveal this,

I've prepared some news that could
be a bit upsetting for you to see.

All right, now.

This may sting a bit.

You've all seen this article, right?

"A bold bank clerk embezzles a billion won
in cash by rigging an ATM."

"Continuous insider embezzlement."

"The discovery of a bank clerk
responsible for embezzlement

leads to other banks' hasty inspection."

A total of 42 ATM-related
embezzlement cases this year alone.

And the damages go way over ten billion.

The press always says there was negligence
in the management and supervision

by the bank and that the system
of inspection is the problem.

But you know how this is.

If someone is determined to deceive,
how could you not fall for it?

It's impossible to know
what goes on in someone's head.

This concern of yours

will be solved by Ihwa ATM.

This is the inside of an ATM,
which all bank clerks would know about.

This here is the cassette,
where cash is loaded in.

If the employee in charge puts
50 million won in the cassette

but records in the system
that he put in 100 million, would we know?

No, we wouldn't.

We'd be fooled without even knowing.

So Ihwa ATM thought,

"Let's create a new cassette."

"Let's make an honest cassette

where lies and tricks won't work."

A bill's weight is always the same.

Unless it's torn or severely
damaged, it's similar in weight.

We at Ihwa ATM focused on that.

The employee in charge

not only has to record the amount
of the bills that he loads in the system

but also has to enter it here as well.

If the employee in charge
enters into the system to load 300 bills…

but only puts in 299,

you see the red light come on?

Also, the cassette door doesn't lock

because this honest cassette

calculates the weight
of the bills on its own.

Its accuracy doesn't even allow
an error of a single bill.

Isn't this the thing from before?

Is that the strength you mentioned?

Yes, it is.

It is our new product
using Ihwa's technology.

Geumgang uses this too.

What?

Leaders' products had it as well.

You know the model
that was recalled last year, right?

Their cassettes had this too.

But this technology is ours.

We developed it two years ago
and applied for model utility rights too.

Model utility rights?

Oh, like a patent?

That's right.

This isn't technology
that can be patented,

but we worked very hard
into designing this.

The technology is enough
to get model utility rights.

Maybe the technology was leaked then.

You should look into that, Director.

Whether or not another company
stole what Ihwa developed.

Well…

Right, yes.

I will check.

To be honest,
what matters to the bank is the cost.

Copied or not,

the same technology is also used
in Geumgang's ATMs, and they're cheaper.

Then we have no other option
but to sign a contract with them.

I see.

We're really not interested in

who originally came up
with this technology.

CASE 5
WILD CARD VS TACTICIAN

Hello.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Young-woo, did you eat?

Su-yeon, I did.

Did Attorney Kwon tell you?

What?

He didn't tell you yet?

I knew this would happen.

The ATM company case.

You've been assigned to it
with Attorney Kwon.

What?

Attorney Jung was about to call
and tell you himself,

but Attorney Kwon stopped him
and said he would tell you.

I had my suspicions
but he really didn't tell you.

My friend who went to
Hana University law school

told me Attorney Kwon's nickname.
Guess what it was.

-I don't know.
-Tactician Kwon Min-woo.

"Tactician Kwon Min-woo"?

Watch out.

It seems like Min-woo's
tactics have already begun.

-You think so?
-Of course.

Why wouldn't he have told you
that you were assigned a case together?

Right.

Come in.

Attorney Kwon.

Why didn't you tell me
we were assigned a case together?

I didn't tell you?

No, you didn't tell me.

I'm sorry. It must've slipped my mind.

So there's a lot to look at
in terms of the structure of ATMs.

But this is a piece of cake
for you, right?

Since you're a genius.

Here.

Right. Did I tell you?

-We're meeting with the client today.
-What?

At 2 p.m.

Gosh, it slipped my mind again.

-Did you take a look at the materials?
-Well…

Yes. It was a bit difficult because
there was a lot of unfamiliar jargon.

-But I managed to go over all of it once.
-Okay, let's go in.

-Good afternoon.
-Good afternoon.

I'm Attorney Jung Myeong-seok,
and I'll be handling your case.

Hello, I'm Woo Young-woo.

Whether it's read straight
or flipped, it's--

She's Woo Young-woo, and I'm Kwon Min-woo.

-Kayak, deed, rotator, noon, racecar.
-Right.

I'm Hwang Du-yong, the one who called.

-Nice to meet you. Please, have a seat.
-Okay.

Before we start,

I brought some mulberry juice.

They're made with farm-fresh mulberries
from Yanggu.

It's been a while since I heard of Yanggu.
I did my military training in Yanggu.

Really? I also did mine in Yanggu.

Were you at the Baekdusan unit?

Baekdusan.

Salute!

Salute.

You must've shoveled a lot of snow.

Guns and knives may rust,

-but the shovel still shines.
-But the shovel still shines.

So, where did you serve?

Yes, I was at the Chilseong unit.

United we can!

A top name!
You're from one of the famous infantries.

I'm from the Seventh Infantry,
where they say only people

who committed the seven sins
in their past lives can get in.

Gosh, the Seventh Infantry.
I wonder where he served.

You look like you served in the marines.

No.

Well, it's nice to meet everyone.

We should be drinking to this.

Why don't we make a toast
with the mulberry juice?

-Should we?
-Yes, that sounds good.

I look forward to working with you.

-Same here.
-I will do my best!

-It's good, right?
-Yes.

Now then, your request

is that you wish to file for a sales
ban injunction against Geumgang ATM?

Yes, Ihwa ATM and Geumgang ATM

are Hanbada Law Firm
and Taesan Law Firm of the ATM industry.

Neck and neck, destined to be rivals?

Yes, it's so close
that you can't really pick one.

Ocean or mountain?

Jjajangmyeon or jjamppong?

To pour the sauce or dip in the sauce?

Blue whales or humpback whales?

What?

Anyway, it's like that
for Ihwa and Geumgang.

And there was Leaders ATM,
a new player in the industry,

but they went out of business last year.

It's always fun to hear
these kinds of stories.

Yes.

Gosh, I hope the Geumgang people
learn a lesson this time.

They shouldn't be sneaking around,

taking the technology that we worked
really hard to develop.

They've done this a few times already.
Including this cassette.

You must be so upset.

What's a cassette?

Oh, well…

The cassette is…

I can explain what it is.

It's the container where cash
is put with a handle on the front.

I did a little homework
before we came here to meet you.

Attorney Kwon.

Attorney Kwon Min-woo.

Anyway, the cassette was developed by us

and we applied
for its model utility rights.

So you've applied for it,
but it hasn't been registered yet?

No, there were a lot of procedures
to go through even after the application.

There wasn't much material
on the application for the rights.

Could you perhaps give us more?

Of course. I'll send you
everything I have.

Then please send them
to the number on my business card.

Yes, I will.

I came in today thinking it was
going to be a brief introduction.

Would it be okay
if we end things here for now?

Yes, of course.

All right.

I look forward to working with you.

Thank you for the juice.

It was nice to meet you.

Take care.

-Yes, thank you.
-Sure.

As I mentioned before,

this case will be led by the two of you,
Attorney Woo and Attorney Kwon.

I'll just be mentoring on the side.

-Got it.
-Got it.

I know there are a lot of unfamiliar terms

but review the materials thoroughly.

The model utility rights
for the cassette is key to this case.

Shouldn't you be aware
of what a cassette is?

Well…

-Yes, I should.
-Make sure this doesn't happen again.

-All right.
-Right.

Here you go.

-I'll get going.
-Okay.

I had a hard time because I didn't
get to see the case materials beforehand.

Please share them with me
without forgetting next time.

Well, no.

What?

Why should I share materials
with my competition?

It's not just Hanbada and Taesan,
Ihwa and Geumgang that are competing.

We're competing too.

You and I are both here
on a one-year contract.

And we need good performance reviews
to get our contracts renewed.

Every single action, every single case.
They'll all be evaluated.

But I guess you're not really interested
in getting your contract renewed, right?

If you were, you wouldn't have been
absent without notice like that.

That's…

I'm interested in getting
my contract renewed too.

Then we're competitors.

Though it seems as if I'm winning again.

What?

Over there.

It seems like you won't be receiving
the next batch of materials either.

Obligor's counselor.

You submitted additional material today.

Yes, Your Honor.

They are materials to substantiate
that Ihwa ATM's application

for model utility rights itself
is false in action.

Could you please look at the screen?

EVIDENCE TO SUBSTANTIATE
IHWA ATM'S CLAIMS AS FALSE

In October 2020,

Ihwa ATM applied for model utility rights
for a security device for the cassettes

in automatic teller machines.

But this technology

was plagiarized.

In the United States, an exhibition called

the Chicago International Engineering Fair
is held every April.

A lot of technology
regarding ATMs are introduced there.

So it's also well-known
among ATM companies in Korea.

Your Honor.

Please compare the two designs
shown on the screen.

One was presented by an American company
at the exhibition back in 2019.

And the other is the one

that Ihwa ATM is arguing
to have developed on their own in 2020.

The American company made this technology
public as open-source technology.

They did it so that anyone can freely use
and modify it without any restrictions.

However, Ihwa ATM

took this technology and pretended
that they developed it themselves,

and applied for its model utility rights
so that other companies can't use it.

Well, they did not take
the American company's design as is.

The two designs look similar,
but there is a clear difference.

The security device on Ihwa ATM's cassette
has a much more segmented sensor

for measuring the weight of the bills
than the American company's.

They didn't copy
the technology made public as is,

but they developed it
by adding new technology.

So the grounds to apply
for model utility rights may…

not be enough.

But we do have grounds.

Gosh, Attorney.

That level of segmentation is common.

Unlike the United States,
Korean bills vary in size,

whether it's ten thousand won,
or fifty thousand won.

That's why segmentation is done.

If they applied for the model utility
rights because of that,

they really have no conscience!

The key technology was developed
by the American company!

What do you mean by no conscience?

No one in our company, including myself,

has ever attended
the exhibition in Chicago.

This is the first time I'm finding out
about something like that.

Geumgang ATM first made
their cassette security device in 2021.

Meanwhile, Ihwa ATM already applied
for model utility rights back in 2020.

The obligor claims

they used the open-source technology
of the American company, but in truth,

didn't they copy Ihwa's technology?

Listen. If you're going to argue
when it was produced,

Leaders is the original.

Leaders ATM made theirs
as soon as the exhibition was over.

All the way back in 2019!

If you look at Leaders' product,
it looks exactly like Ihwa's!

Is that so?

Can you substantiate what you just stated?

Your Honor,

we also attempted to find evidence,

but unfortunately, Leaders ATM
went out of business last year.

They went out of business after their
products were recalled due to a defect,

so there aren't any Leaders
products left in the market.

It's difficult to make a ruling
on whether this technology

was solely developed by Ihwa ATM or
if it's a slight variation of technology

that was already released
based on these materials alone.

Since the KIPO's evaluation result for
the model utility rights hasn't come out,

it's even more difficult.

Is there any other material to present?

Your Honor.

In order to substantiate the novelty

of the model utility rights
application by Ihwa ATM,

we also need some time
to put together the materials.

Yes, I agree.

Then we'll set the date
for the next questioning.

The court is adjourned.

All rise.

-Good work.
-Of course.

Is Geumgang ATM's claim true?

What?

I'm going to go answer this call.

Okay.

I have other plans,
so I'm going to head out.

-Wrap things up here.
-All right.

I'm headed out as well.
I have a lot to do.

What?

Shouldn't we check
the facts with the client?

We can only check the facts
if he tells us the truth.

So do you think
Mr. Hwang Du-yong is lying?

I'm not sure.

It could be that Geumgang
is committing fraud.

Isn't everyone in business like that?

The direction of the defense
depends on whether or not Ihwa ATM

developed the technology themselves.
We have to find out what the facts are.

Then you go find out.

I'll do my own thing.

But don't interrogate the client
about what the facts are.

You'll get me fired too.

What?

You know that we're being
employed by the client, right?

The customer is king.

Come to think of it,
you never handle cases quietly.

Right.

That time you were taken off a case

because you upset the Chairman
of Sangjeong Pharmaceutical.

It's not like you're
Wild Card Woo Young-woo.

Wild…

"Wild Card Woo Young-woo"?

Yes.

You…

You Tactician Kwon Min-woo!

What?

"Tactician"?

Have you no conscience?

I'm saying we never went there!

Stop with the lying!

What ATM company in Korea
has never gone to the Chicago exhibition?

Every time new technology was presented
in Chicago, everyone copied it!

That may be true
for Geumgang, but not Ihwa!

The employees on our
Development Team all came together

and toiled for years to make it.

Is it not enough
that you stole this technology?

Why are you trying to swipe
other people's efforts too?

Effort? What effort?

-An effort to come up with a dirty trick
-Look.

-to ruin other companies?
-Can you tell who's lying?

Why do you keep speaking
disrespectfully to me, old man?

-You can't speak like that to people!
-What?

"Old man"?

That's the nicest thing I could call you.
Should I say what I'm thinking?

-Go ahead!
-You can't, can you?

So why bother asking?

-You can't even tell who's lying.
-Do you think you can keep insisting?

Let me tell you this. We don't do
anything that's this lousy like you.

"Lousy"?

We came all this way by working hard,

and we're claiming the rights
that should be rightfully ours.

So Geumgang should stop trying to get
a free ride on other people's hard work.

Cham, cham, cham.

Cham, cham, cham!

Gosh.

Cham, cham, cham!

Cham, cham, cham!

Hey! How come you're so good at this?
You should enter a competition!

But is there really a connection
between being good at this game

and differentiating
between true and false?

Hey.

Are you doubting my method?

What do those books say?

THE DEFINITIVE BOOK OF BODY LANGUAGE
DIGGING UP LIES

Well…

If a person is lying, their body releases
a chemical called catecholamine.

And it causes the tissues
inside the nose to swell up.

Pinocchio was actually
a fairy tale based on facts.

And if a person lies,
their blood pressure rises

and it stimulates the nerve tissue at
the tip of the nose, making it feel itchy.

Hearing that makes my nose
really itchy right now.

Was this just now true or false?

-What?
-Hey.

What kind of person's nose grows bigger
and becomes itchy just because they lied?

I've never seen anyone like that.

Hey, you don't need any of this.
Just remember Cham Cham Cham.

Look straight into
the other person's eyes.

Looking straight
into the other person's eyes

is the most difficult thing
in the world for someone with autism.

That's right.

Then look between their eyebrows.
The area of truth.

Then you'll get a feeling.

If what they're saying is true,
you'll get the feeling of it being true.

If they're lying, you'll get
the feeling of it being a lie.

Got it?

-Yes.
-Now!

I'll guess first.
Say anything that comes to mind.

I don't want to lose
against Attorney Kwon Min-woo.

Kwon Min-woo?

-The good-looking guy?
-What?

No, not Lee Jun-ho. Kwon Min-woo.

Yes, not Lee Jun-ho. Kwon Min-woo.
The good-looking guy.

What about Min-woo?

Well, I'm working on this case with him.

Attorney Kwon…

Attorney Kwon?

is a jerk.

That's true.

You really want to beat Min-woo right now.

Yes, I do.

Okay, it's your turn now.

Focus, in the spirit of Cham Cham Cham.

"Focus, in the spirit of Cham Cham Cham."

Yes, are you ready?

Yes.

Lee Jun-ho

likes…

Woo Young-woo.

What is that?

You're supposed to guess.
I know the answer.

How would you know that?

Did you guys go to Nakjo Village or not?

Nakjo Village?

We did.

Now.

Lee Jun-ho likes

Woo Young-woo.

True…

or false?

-Give me one second.
-Okay.

Yes, Attorney Jang.

No. I was just playing basketball.

Attorney Woo?

Yes. I know.

We're on this case together.

You know Attorney Woo
has a disability, I mean, a handicap.

Yes, so there's no choice
but for me to shoulder certain things.

No, it's no trouble.

There are people who make time
to go do volunteer work.

This is the least I could do. Isn't it?

Yes. All right.

Let's get dinner together soon.

Okay, goodbye. Salute.

Hey, let's go.

Hey, is it my turn? Your turn?

Okay, you first?

Okay.

Jeez.

What's wrong with you?

Hey!

Come on, let's play fair.

What? Play fair?

You play fair yourself.

Gosh, what is he mad about?
He was winning.

It hurts.

-Here's your food.
-Thank you.

-Of course, enjoy.
-Excuse me,

I still haven't gotten the cheese gimbap.

Coming right up. Just a moment, please.

Welcome.

What kind of gimbap costs
3,500 and 4,000 won?

It's so expensive!

That's how the prices are these days.
The cost of ingredients has gone up.

That doesn't matter.

Gimbap is still gimbap.

Goodness, it's so expensive!

-Hurry and clear this table for me.
-Right.

-Thank you for the food.
-Goodbye.

Did you just think
that woman is a rude customer?

-What?
-What did she say?

Excuse me. Did you just say
I'm a rude customer?

Answer me. Then I'll guess if it's true--

I said the gimbap
is expensive because it is!

How dare you call me a rude customer!

You ruined my morning.

Gosh, I'm sorry.

Who is she? Is she your daughter?

Did you just use your daughter
to talk bad about a customer?

Gosh.

She's not my daughter.

You should leave now, Ma'am.

Okay?

What?

Yes, sir.

Goodbye.

There used to be someone on my team
who was a former detective.

And he would always say,

"The most honest part of the human body
are the legs and then the hands."

The legs and then

-the hands?
-Yes.

Apparently, the further
things are from the head,

the more difficult it is
to control completely.

You can fake a facial expression,

but it's hard to control
shaky legs or sweaty palms.

And what else?

If someone is sitting down like they're
ready to bolt out of the room

or has their arms stuck to their body
like this as if they're tied to the chair.

Or if they keep stroking
their thighs with their hands.

He said those things
could be signs of lying.

Geu-ra-mi told me
to look between the eyebrows.

The former detective said the legs
and hands are the most important.

Ultimately, do I have to look
at the entire body?

This is quite difficult.

Why don't you just have
a casual conversation?

Trust your instincts.

My instincts suck.

People with autism
are easily fooled and are not able to lie.

If there was a competition to be fooled,

a person with autism would win.

Why is that?

Is it because people
with autism are innocent?

Well…

It's more like

people live in a world
that is made up of me and you

but people with autism are more used
to living in a world made up of only me.

People can think differently from me

or have different intentions and trick me.

I understand this with my head,
but I keep forgetting.

I have to make a conscious effort
at all times to not be fooled by lies.

These stories help.

They do?

Yes.

They help me understand you.

We're here to meet
Director Hwang Du-yong of the Sales Team.

Yes. Go this way.

-Thank you.
-Sure.

Attorney Woo.

Should we practice?

From now on, I'm Director Hwang Du-yong.

If you ask me a question, I'll answer.

Then you guess if it's true or not.

Okay, I'll try.
In the spirit of Cham Cham Cham.

Cham Cham Cham?

Lee Jun-ho

likes Woo Young-woo.

Is this true?

That…

is too hard of a question

for Director Hwang Du-yong to answer.

Right.

Yes.

It was a practice question.

Excuse me.

-Are you from Leaders?
-Yes.

Thank you for coming.

I'm Kwon Min-woo,
the person who called you.

-Nice to meet you.
-Please have a seat.

How did you get my number?

I asked around and was finally able
to get a hold of your number.

Right.

It was very difficult
to get a hold of any numbers.

Could you tell me
why you wanted to see me?

Yes. You know what a cassette
security device is, right?

Yes. I do.

That must be Ihwa's?

Yes. And I'm aware that Leaders
had made a similar cassette.

More like the same.

It's the same cassette.

Was that made
with the open-source technology

from the 2019 Chicago exhibition?

Yes.

We really worked hard back then
to be number one in the industry.

The Chicago exhibition was held in April,

and we were already trying to manufacture
the product in October of that year.

We shouldn't have overdone it like that.

I regret it.

Why is that?

We pushed ourselves too hard.

We stayed up every night
to keep the factory running,

but we made a mistake
on an important part.

There was an error
with the bill recognition.

Because of that,

the new product that we worked so hard to
prepare was all refunded, and eventually,

the company went under.

So are there no Leaders products
left in the market at all?

Well, they were all disposed of.

Now, they don't exist in the world.

For some reason, that makes me sad.

We really worked hard to make it.

Director Hwang's office is this way.

Right. Thank you.

Between the eyebrows, legs, and hands.

Between the eyebrows, legs, and hands.

Between the eyebrows, legs, and hands.

-Your guests are here.
-Right.

Between the eyebrows,

leg,

and hand…

They're injured.

I was in a car accident.

It seems like you're injured quite badly.

Are you sure
you should be working like this?

Yes, I'm fine.

Attorney Woo and an employee
from Hanbada came all this way.

How could I stay in bed at the hospital?

Between the eyebrows, leg, and hand…

Things must be hard for you
because you got hurt.

Yes, well.

You said you had questions
about product development?

As you can see, I'm injured,

and since I'm on the sales team,
I don't really know much.

Let me take you
to meet the person in charge.

Follow me.

Manager Bae.

This is Manager Bae Seong-cheol
of our Research and Development lab.

He was the driving force
behind the new product.

I wouldn't say the driving force.

This is an attorney
and an employee from Hanbada.

Hello.

They're here to hear
about the development of the new product.

-Please have a seat.
-Okay.

When did you come up
with the cassette security device?

What?

When?

End of 2019?

Early 2020? Around then.

-Please tell us exactly when it was.
-End of 2019.

It was the end of 2019.

Was there an incident
that made you come up with this?

Incident?

Obviously, we are aware

Ihwa ATM didn't just take
the American team's technology,

but that you developed it yourselves.

But there are others who are suspicious.

If the occasion or its process
is more specific, it has more credibility.

Which is why the attorney must've asked.

Right.

An incident?

Incident…

Seong-cheol.

What is it? Are you shy?

Speak properly. Why do you keep mumbling?

Incident?

He's not usually like this.

Do you know what he used to do
before he started working here?

Theater.

He was an actor.

-A theater actor?
-Yes!

That's amazing.

It was just for a short time in the past.

Just minor roles.

Mr. Bae Seong-cheol.

Did you attend the Chicago International
Engineering Fair back in 2019?

Gosh, you're acting like a prosecutor.

Since you're asking like
you're interrogating us,

it feels like we've become the suspects.

You're on our side, right?

It's Attorney Kwon.

I'll take it here
since it's probably about the case.

ATTORNEY KWON MIN-WOO

Hi, salute.

Communication secured!

Hello, Director. I just met with the man
whose number you gave me.

The one who worked at Leaders ATM.

You did?

Yes, and he confirmed that their products
were all refunded and disposed of.

It can't be found in the market.

So I don't think
you have to worry about it.

No matter how much
Geumgang wants to nitpick,

there's nothing
they can bring as evidence.

Gosh, Attorney Kwon.

You're the best.

I will contact you again later.

-Sure. Goodbye.
-Yes, Director. Goodbye. Salute.

Salute.

That's good news.

Yes, it's good.

So should we end this interrogation?

Attorney Kwon said not to worry.

It's good that Geumgang ATM
won't have any evidence to submit.

However, we still have to
substantiate that our claim is the truth.

If Mr. Bae gives a testimony
on the development process himself,

I'm sure it will have a positive effect.

What?

Me? You want me to be a witness?

But was this idea approved by
all the other attorneys as well?

I should call Attorney Kwon, and…

This case is an injunction hearing,
so the jargon is a little different.

Obligee, instead of the plaintiff.

Obligor, instead of the defendant.

Reference witness, instead of the witness.

And the reference witness…

doesn't swear in.

In other words,
even if you commit perjury,

you won't be punished for it.

It'll look like you're lying
if you stroke your thighs.

Studies have shown
that the jury doesn't like it

when the witness' hands
are hidden under the stand.

There isn't a jury in an injunction case,

but the judge wouldn't trust
a reference witness

who hides their hands either.

Most importantly,
don't rub the tip of your nose.

You'll look like Pinocchio
whose catecholamine was released.

Goodness, Attorney Woo,

you're really coaching him.

Manager Bae, write this down or something.

Since you were a theater actor,

I'll expect…

you to be good at this.

Right.

Yes.

We request the questioning of the
reference witness, Mr. Bae Seong-cheol,

the manager of the Research
and Development Team at Ihwa ATM.

Yes, I'll allow it.

Reference witness, step forward.

Obligee's counselor,
you may ask questions first.

Sir.

Please introduce yourself.

My name is Bae Seong-cheol.

I'm the manager at Ihwa ATM's
Research and Development Team.

The key technology of the 2022 model

of automatic teller machines
that Ihwa ATM made

is the cassette with the security device.

Correct?

Yes.

I developed it with my own two hands.

When did you first develop it?

It was the winter of 2019.

It was an extremely cold day in November.

Was there a particular incident
that motivated you to develop it?

That winter, there were many cases
of ATMs being rigged for embezzlement.

So then, we got orders
from the higher-ups.

"Create a new cassette."

"Create an honest cassette
on which lies and tricks won't work."

Could you explain the development process?

The blood and tears of the people
in Ihwa's Research and Development Team.

Is there an explanation
more accurate than this?

Until the day we applied
for model utility rights

for the cassette security device
in October of 2020,

we continued challenging
ourselves, tirelessly.

Are you putting on some kind of play?

We obviously know
that you took someone else's technology.

Obligor, you will have
enough opportunity to speak.

Do not interrupt during the questioning.

I'm going to be
straightforward and ask you.

Did you attend
the Chicago International Engineering Fair

that was held
in the United States in 2019?

Sir?

Your Honor.

Sir?

Ihwa ATM

is a very small company.

There are only five people
in the Research and Development Team.

Those five people

put their heads and hearts together
and researched and developed for days.

It's such a waste of our efforts

for us to be framed
for taking someone else's technology.

People all think similarly,

so similar products
may be released around similar times.

However,

to lie about copying another's technology?

We're not the kind of company to lie about
having developed something ourselves.

Neither Director Hwang,
who is sitting over there, nor I

would ever do such a thing.

Your Honor.

It still takes days and nights of working
to take and use someone else's technology.

It's always like that!

As I said before,

we're in the middle of questioning
the reference witness, so…

This is a show, not a questioning!

I'm going through
every junk shop in the country

to find evidence
that will reveal their outrageous lie.

If only I can find
one of the cassettes made by Leaders…

So did you find it?

Did you find the evidence?

-I'm looking all over the country--
-Then talk after you find it.

For now, sit down.

Sit down.

Obligee's counselor.

Do you have any more questions?

No.

That is all.

Obligor's counselor,
you may now begin cross-examination.

Nice work. It's looking good for us.

Thank you.

I prepared a lot for the reference
witness's interrogation,

so I'm glad it worked.

Obligor's counselor,
begin your questioning.

Yes, Your Honor.

Did you hear
that an injunction was decided?

Oh, yes.

The people at Geumgang must not have
a clue as to how to deal with this

since production
and sales have all been banned.

Anyway, this is all

thanks to the attorneys at Hanbada.

Thank you!

This is a gift from Ihwa ATM. Take a look.

A painting that brings in wealth!

In other words, a sunflower.

Make more and more money, the same way
a sunflower grows taller and taller!

Yes, thank you.

Where should we hang this up?

Right here is perfect.

You don't need this here.
You have it memorized, right?

ATTORNEY'S CODE OF ETHICS

All right.

Here.

That's nice!

Right?

Take in all this energy

and get rich!

Okay.

I'll get going then.

I've brought your mail.

Okay.

FROM CEO OF GEUMGANG ATM OH JIN-JONG

ATTORNEY JUNG MYEONG-SEOK

Come in.

Attorney Kwon, did you get the letter?

What letter?

FROM CEO OF GEUMGANG ATM OH JIN-JONG

"Please read this, Attorney Woo."

This is a misunderstanding. You don't
need to be concerned about it. Once we…

Please read this, Attorney Woo.

No, that will never happen.

As I repeatedly said before,

that technology was developed
by an American company

and was made public at the exhibition.

Both Geumgang and Ihwa
took it to make products.

Sir.

News of the sales ban injunction
spread too quickly.

So it seems like some of the investors
are about to barge in here.

Why don't you lay low for a while?

Then Ihwa ATM submitted
for model utility rights

because they wanted to monopolize it.
Why are you disregarding the truth?

If the ban on production and sales
is prolonged with this injunction,

Geumgang, which is smaller than Ihwa,
will be out of business soon.

Sir!

Sir, you should go now.

-Open the door!
-Get out here right now!

Don't hide! Get out here!

Sir.

-Open up!
-Come out!

-Come out of there!
-Let's talk!

-Come out!
-Get out here!

Sir!

Do you want to be a competent
attorney who only wins in court?

Or do you want to be an honorable
attorney who reveals the truth?

Right.

Why didn't he send one to me?

Did I have no presence?

If this letter is true,

shouldn't we do something about it?

Like what?

We pleaded the client's position well

and got them the injunction they wanted.
What more should we do?

If this letter is true--

Attorney Woo.

When are you going to stop talking
about whether something is true or false?

Didn't you visit Ihwa's headquarters
yourself to figure that out?

What if we show this letter to the people
at Ihwa ATM and persuade them

to apply for revocation of the injunction?

What?

For what reason?

Because the contents
of this letter might be true.

Do you have any evidence that it is?

I mean,

if you can't trust the client,
you shouldn't have taken on the case.

Are you saying we should turn things
around because of this letter?

Does this make sense to you?

You really are Wild Card Woo Young-woo.

Why do you always
think of ways to mess things up?

Don't call me Wild Card Woo Young-woo!

Do you like it if I call you
Tactician Kwon Min-woo?

I think the tactician

is you, Attorney Woo.

What?

You coached the reference witness
for the questioning, right?

I thought I was watching
an American TV show.

He came really prepared.

The questions, the responses,

and it seemed like
there was also a script.

Be honest, Attorney Woo.

Did you think the reference witness
was speaking the truth?

You didn't, right?

Didn't you help him sound
like he was speaking the truth

because you thought he wasn't?

That's exactly what using tactics is.

Whether you thought it was true or not,

if you decided to trust him, stick to it.

You owe that to the client

as an attorney.

Can I have the paperwork
I asked for earlier?

-Okay.
-Thank you.

Hey, Attorney Woo.

I saw that you called me earlier.
What was it about?

Right.

I had something
I wanted to ask you earlier.

You did?

Now, I don't.

What? All right then.

This is unexpected.
Woo Young-woo eating in the cafeteria?

Today's dinner menu is gimbap.

I should tell you whenever
they serving gimbap from now on then.

It seemed like you told Attorney Kwon.

-What?
-Tactician Kwon Min-woo.

Right.

That's because he kept calling me
Wild Card Woo Young-woo.

You're on a nickname basis now
after working on one case together?

Wild Card Woo Young-woo
is not my nickname.

Make me one.

How about "Babyface Choi Su-yeon"?

Or…

"Most Beautiful Choi Su-yeon"?

No.

-No?
-No.

Those aren't you.

Then what am I?

You're…

I'm?

like the spring sunshine.

What?

I've thought so ever since
we were in law school.

You told me where the lecture hall was,
when class was canceled,

and when the test material changed.

You tried to stop the other students
from making fun of me or bullying me.

Even now, you open my water bottles for me

and tell me that you'll let me know
when they serve gimbap again.

You're a bright, warm,
kind, and sweet person.

You're Spring Sunshine Su-yeon.

Attorney Woo.

You know how Geumgang ATM
filed an appeal for the injunction?

Yes.

And now they're saying that
there should be an on-site verification.

The CEO of Geumgang was going on
about going through junk shops

all over the country to find evidence.

It seems as though
he finally found something.

On-site verification?

Yes. They want us at a bank
in Mangu-dong, Jungnang-gu.

Enjoy your meal.

Thanks.

We will now start the on-site verification
of Case Number 2022, Injunction Case 1547,

based on the procedures of the appeal
filed for the preliminary injunction

against infringement
of intellectual property rights.

Obligor's counselor.

You applied for on-site verification.

Could you show us
the object of verification?

Yes, Your Honor.

This is the automatic teller machine
made by Leaders ATM.

Most of the same models
have been disposed of,

but this one machine was left here
in the Mangu-dong branch.

Could you open it
and show us the cassette?

This is the cassette.

This is the cassette that Ihwa ATM
claims to have developed on their own.

Please compare the two cassettes.

The difference between
these cassettes and typical cassettes

is the number plate on the front

and the weight measuring sensor
for the bills at the bottom on the inside.

The two cassettes are not
only similar on the outside.

Please look at the cassette
designs of the two companies.

The interior layout is also similar.

Ihwa ATM applied for model utility rights
in October of 2020.

So when did Leaders ATM make this product?

Could you please check the delivery date
that is marked on the inside?

The delivery date is October 23rd, 2019.

Yes.

This product was manufactured
a year before Ihwa ATM.

Novelty is the most important factor for
the application of model utility rights.

It can't be the same as prior technology.

This is a matter stated
in Article 29 of the Patent Act.

Therefore, Ihwa ATM

is not qualified to acquire
model utility rights for this technology.

Thus, we request the revocation
of the injunction prohibiting

production and sales
that have been issued to Geumgang ATM.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

Take care.

Good work.

The injunction is likely to be revoked.

It seems so.

And the possibility
of the model utility rights

not passing the evaluation
seems high as well.

I guess so.

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

While the injunction was issued,

I completed most of the supply contracts
with the banks.

Even if it's revoked,
it won't affect us much.

I see.

Was this your plan the whole time?

What you said about developing
the technology on your own…

I'm glad you're fine.

We're just a little
worried because technically,

Geumgang won the trial.

Winning this battle doesn't matter.
They lost the war.

The CEO of Geumgang probably already knows
that we won all the contracts.

He's just mad, so he's
dragging it out until the end.

This one should hurt quite a bit.

Gosh, I wonder if Geumgang will be
following down the path Leaders took?

Anyway, this is all thanks to you.
You all did such an amazing job.

We really appreciate it.

I'll get going then.

Attorney Woo?

So, ultimately,

I helped Ihwa ATM
take advantage of the law.

Excuse me?

Applying for model utility rights,
and filing for the injunction

were all lies to monopolize the contracts.

And instead of stopping them, I helped.

And what's worse is…

I think I already knew that.

When we visited Ihwa ATM,

did you think Director Hwang
and Manager Bae were speaking the truth?

Well…

-I…
-There's no way you did.

Try to remember what Mr. Bae
was like at the time.

Sitting down with his legs looking like
they're ready to bolt out of the room,

his arms stuck to his body
as if he was tied to the chair,

repeatedly stroking
his thighs with his hands,

and even rubbing the tip of his nose.

He was a lie in and of itself.

Right.

In the end,

I fooled myself,
pretending not to know the truth

when I did.

Because I wanted to win.

Right.

I'm ashamed.

ATTORNEY WOO YOUNG-WOO

PLEASE READ THIS, ATTORNEY WOO

WHY ARE YOU DISREGARDING THE TRUTH?

DO YOU WANT TO BE A COMPETENT
ATTORNEY WHO ONLY WINS IN COURT?

OR DO YOU WANT TO BE AN HONORABLE
ATTORNEY WHO REVEALS THE TRUTH?

TAESAN LAW FIRM ATTORNEY TAE SU-MI

Come in.

Right.

Candidate Tae Su-mi,
it's nice to finally meet you.

I'm Administrator Kim Yeong-il

from the Office of the Secretary
at the Blue House.

I'm Tae Su-mi.

Have a seat.

Congratulations on becoming a candidate
for the Minister of Justice.

I'm just a candidate.

I'm worried I have
such a high mountain climb.

You're here today
to retrieve the paperwork, right?

PRELIMINARY QUESTIONNAIRE FOR
HIGH-RANKING PUBLIC OFFICIAL CANDIDATES

I was writing
the self-verification statement,

and I was nervous.

I take pride in having lived
an incomparably decent life,

but the idea of someone
verifying it made me nervous.

We've never had the former CEO
of the country's greatest law firm

as a candidate
for Minister of Justice before.

Seeing as how this is
an unconventional selection,

we are planning on doing
an extra thorough verification

before writing up the report.

In the end,

the goal is to safely make it
through the confirmation hearing.

Of course.
I look forward to working with you.

There's one thing I have to ask you.

Go ahead.

We can't ignore public opinion
during the candidate verification.

Public opinion?

Are you talking about my reputation?

Yes.

It seems as though there's a rumor

among your university colleagues.

Is that so? What is it?

That you, Candidate Tae,

have a child out of wedlock.

Are you aware of this?

I thought it was going to be
something else.

Isn't that such petty gossip
to worry about?

It is petty gossip.

But you know as much as I do

that it's always the little things
that ruin public officials.

It really is preposterous.

Why does that kind of
rumor keep circulating?

Perhaps,

there's someone who resembles me
out there somewhere.

So I can trust that you don't have

any illegitimate children?

Of course.

Cool down Attorney Choi so that
she doesn't treat this case emotionally.

Did you run away so that you could
raise her until she reached an age

-where she could remember her mother?
-Yes.

-Ms. Gye Hyang-sim must get probation!
-That was passionate.

Are you going to trial
because you don't want to yield?

They're such a good-looking match.

Don't you think Jun-ho
likes Attorney Choi?

If I were a whale, would my mom
not have abandoned me?
