(Staff ensured child actors' safety in the filming of this drama.)

You really didn't have to walk me to school.

(A year later)

- Have a good day. Bye. - Bye.

- Call me later. - I will.

Ms. Cha.

A managing partner appears at the court himself?

Look who's talking. You're a managing partner too.

Am I?

I heard Spring Again has been thriving lately.

Do you eat only gimbap and work like before?

I introduced Mr. Jun to you for a reason.

To learn the balance between life and work?

Of course.

I have another trial. You should get going.

Make sure to eat well.

Yes. Have a good day.

- Hello. - Hello.

Hello, Ms. Han.

Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

Good morning.

- Yes? - Ms. Han.

The orientation for a new attorney is ready.

- I'll be right there. - Okay.

Hello, Ms. Han.

We're only a few years of experience apart.

Don't be like this.

Relax and have a seat.

I'm very glad to work with a star attorney.

Even before I joined this firm,

you were always my role model.

Welcome to the divorce team.

I hope you're not disappointed to receive a divorce case...

when you just joined.

Not at all.

I've always wanted to be a divorce specialized attorney.

I'm looking forward to the cases I'll be working on.

I'll do my best.

I'm glad to hear that.

Most attorneys don't want to deal with divorce cases...

when they are newbies.

Am I really a divorce team newbie?

How can I move to a corporation team?

By the way, do you have a car? And a watch?

I don't.

A car and a watch are a must for attorneys.

Without them, it'll be inconvenient.

Trials often take place outside the city.

And if you look at your phone to check the time,

it's not good manners in front of your clients.

Got it?

Get a car first.

And a watch too.

Time is crucial for attorneys.

If you keep taking your phone out to check the time,

it's not good manners in front of your clients.

I'll make sure to get a watch.

But as for the car,

I'm fine sticking to public transportation.

Sure.

(Attorney at law, Lee Han Na)

(Final Episode)

Don't you get tired after driving me home...

every day?

- Why don't we... - Oh, it's fine.

This is the only time we get to meet after work.

Don't say that.

Sorry. I've been too busy.

No, it's okay.

Still, it'll be better now with the newbie, right?

Yes.

I'm grateful for you all the time.

One thing is clear.

Like how I met you after becoming a divorce attorney,

life never goes as planned.

But I still like it.

(Daejeong)

Jung Woo Jin.

Hi.

(27 years ago)

Jung Woo Jin?

- Yes. - Hi.

Nice to meet you.

Call me Aunt Ae Yeon from now on.

I think this is my first time seeing you in the office.

You look wonderful.

- Woo Jin. - Yes.

Help me divorce your dad.

I'm sorry to say this to you.

But it'd look funny for me to find another attorney.

Have you made up your mind?

Yes.

We can't even have a logical conversation anymore.

File it right away, please.

I'm...

really sorry.

No, don't say that.

I'll put in a good word...

with my ace attorney.

Thanks.

(Law Firm Daejeong)

Did you want to see me, Mr. Jung?

Ms. Han.

She wants to divorce Mr. Oh Dae Gyu.

Can you help her?

Mr. Oh Dae Gyu?

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you too.

I understand. This way.

May I ask why Daejeong of all law firms?

Otherwise, he wouldn't end it soon.

If he refuses to divorce me, it'll be a pain in the neck.

And if his office is in charge of it,

he won't make a big deal out of it in embarrassment.

I know what he's like.

I see.

Have you tried to settle it with him?

There's no point.

I bet he'll argue he's right about everything.

I don't even want to talk to him.

It's been three years since we haven't talked to each other.

I want to end it now.

Yes. I understand.

I don't even want to run into him.

I'll leave now.

Sure.

What are you doing here?

You said the settlement begins after filing a written complaint.

I'm here to file a complaint.

What's the problem?

Have you forgotten that this is my firm?

It's my son's firm.

Wouldn't it be weird for me to go someplace else?

My son is the CEO.

I should save the lawsuit cost...

when I don't know how much you're going to give me.

How dare you? Are you out of your mind?

Stop right there.

Ms. Han.

What did that woman say?

I'm sorry.

I'm Ms. Park Ae Yeon's attorney.

What? She signed a contract?

Who'd allow her to file a written complaint against me...

through my own company?

It was Mr. Jung Woo Jin's order.

Hey, Jung Woo Jin.

What the heck do you think you're doing?

Daejeong is going to take the case against me?

It's basically like a son battling his father in court!

She raised me.

I couldn't tell her to go to a different law firm.

You know a lot of other attorneys.

If you need an attorney, you can easily hire someone else.

What did you say? How dare you?

This isn't the time to act proud.

She must have waited for you at home for decades.

Please acknowledge that at least this once.

I didn't do anything wrong.

Why must I be the only understanding spouse in this?

If you regret it after the divorce, there's nothing you can do.

You've already been separated.

- They might approve the divorce. - I've lived...

the life of an ATM.

At home, I was treated like a machine that generated money.

Then the divorce will go through.

That's the number one excuse old spouses who get divorced make.

Hey!

I know that you worked hard!

But you can't be stubborn...

and demand your spouse to acknowledge that.

Your wife also made sacrifices for the family...

- just like you. - I never asked her...

to acknowledge my hard work.

After being patient for so long, I expected her to stop being mad.

I had no idea she would ask me for a divorce!

You were the one who asked for the separation.

I thought it would help our marriage.

You...

(Law Firm Spring Again)

Ms. Cha.

Mr. Oh?

My wife wants to divorce me.

- Pardon? - Of all the law firms, she asked...

my company to take her case.

Have you ever seen anything like this?

I can't believe her audacity!

I heard you left the company.

But still.

How could she betray me like this?

So what brings you here, Mr. Oh?

Ms. Cha.

Take my case.

You cannot lose.

You must wipe the floor with those jerks at Daejeong.

(Last Case: Good, Partner)

(In session)

Next, we will proceed with Case 2020-8723.

I ask Plaintiff Park Ae Yeon, and Defendant Oh Dae Gyu,

and their counsels to come forward.

We should go.

Please take a seat.

(Defendant, Plaintiff)

I'm Han Yu Ri, Plaintiff Park Ae Yeon's counsel...

from Daejeong. We're present for the hearing.

I see.

I'm Cha Eun Kyung, Defendant Oh Dae Gyu's counsel...

from Law Firm Spring Again. We're present for the hearing.

I see.

All right. State your petition.

(Defendant)

(Plaintiff)

The plaintiff...

raised a child that the defendant brought...

into their marriage the best she could...

and supported the defendant throughout her life.

But instead of showing gratitude for the plaintiff's sacrifices,

he took her support for granted.

The plaintiff claims that their marriage ended...

because the defendant neglected his family...

and treated her unjustly.

Your Honour. That's nonsense.

I see that the defendant's counsel...

hasn't filed a response to the petition yet.

What is your response?

If you have any proposals for dividing the assets,

we will arrange the next hearing as a mediation session.

The defendant does not want to divorce her.

Does he not agree to the divorce?

He does not.

I knew it.

It's been over three years since we've been separated.

He's refusing to divorce me to torture me.

For 30 years,

the defendant financially provided for the family.

He couldn't spend as much time with the plaintiff...

as he had wanted.

But it's a groundless claim that he neglected his family...

or treated her unjustly.

Your Honour, I was like her ATM, nothing more, nothing less.

If you were an ATM,

I was a housekeeper.

I had to clean up...

for decades after a man who never lifted a finger at home.

I did my absolute best...

to feed and clothe the child you brought into our marriage.

You should be thanking me.

Why don't you be more honest with yourself?

Just say that you don't need me now that I'm not making any money.

You jerk.

That's all you can think of because money is everything to you.

Forget it.

If you don't give me half of your assets,

I'll take you to court. That's all I'm going to say.

All you ever talk about is money.

This is why I say I'm treated like an ATM.

It's not like I cheated on you and had Woo Jin.

A woman I dated before our marriage...

suddenly showed up,

said he was my son, and left him with me.

- What choice did I have? - I'm sick of it!

It's that again!

I'm not here to discuss how it happened.

You...

Have you ever thanked me even once for supporting you?

What? Just be honest.

You used Woo Jin as a bargaining chip...

against me throughout our marriage!

When did I do that?

How could you say that about your own son?

All right.

- Mr. Oh. - Please stop.

We're in a courthouse.

(Defendant, Plaintiff)

My goodness. I'm so angry. How could you be so ungrateful?

What?

How dare you glare at me?

You think you’re the center of everything, don’t you?

"Ungrateful?" I should call you ungrateful!

- You little... - Gosh.

Aunt. Let me drop you off.

- Okay. - Ms. Han. See you in the office.

Okay.

You must think you're all that!

Mr. Oh.

It seems both parties have a lot to say to each other.

Let's set up a meeting before the next hearing.

I'll get going.

Okay. I'll call you.

Mr. Oh!

For the two of you,

it may be better to schedule a private meeting to talk...

than a hearing.

We'll help you, so you guys can talk it through.

Talk? Don't be ridiculous.

Let's take this to court all the way.

I hate to mention it,

but I can see in your eyes...

that you don't want this marriage to end.

What?

You got it all wrong.

It's just that she knows how to push my buttons!

This may be the last time you ever see her.

Are you truly comfortable...

with receiving a ruling after only arguing with her...

and not having a proper conversation?

Woo Jin.

This isn't easy.

It must have been tough on you.

Could I not be present at the next hearing?

Usually, after the first hearing,

you must attend the mediation session...

once it gets scheduled.

Is the mediation session different from a hearing?

Does it mean I get a chance to speak my mind?

Yes.

You must have a lot to say.

Is it because I stopped myself from speaking up all my life?

I should say everything on my mind as it's my last chance.

You should.

But if the case ends with a ruling,

you may not get half of his assets.

I'll be fine even if I don't get half.

He keeps saying that all he ever did was make money.

So I thought, "Then give me a lot of money at least."

That's all.

You know what it's been like for me.

I lived my entire life as his wife.

How could he never acknowledge that?

I know.

It really hadn't been easy on you.

(Law Firm Daejeong)

Ms. Han. Thank you for handling the case today.

As the CEO of the law firm and a family member of the client,

I feel reassured.

Thank you.

I had...

no idea about your upbringing.

I know you will do a great job.

But please keep trying...

to figure out what the client truly wants.

Sometimes, even their own family can't see what they truly want.

Yes. I'll do that.

Okay.

- Hey, Mr. Jun. - Mr. Jung!

- Are you getting off work? - Yes.

How's work?

Well, I'm doing my best with what I can do.

You seem much happier now.

Gosh, I've been working late these days.

I miss Daejeong.

Wait. It seems you're getting off work on time.

Gosh, no. Don't say that.

Okay. Keep working hard.

- Okay. See you around. - Okay. Bye.

Bye.

You're here.

Gosh, thank you.

Thanks for coming. I know you're busy.

I ought to come when you ask to see me.

It's nice to drink the coffee you prepared for me.

I wanted to get your thoughts too.

What thoughts?

Mr. Oh Dae Gyu.

From my observation, he doesn't want this divorce at all.

Or am I mistaken?

I've been calling him to get his thoughts on the settlement.

But he keeps stalling.

Mr. Oh.

Have you thought about the conditions of the settlement?

Ms. Cha.

Could you give me more time to think about this?

- Okay. - Bye.

Mr. Oh. Have you thought about the conditions of the settlement?

- In my opinion... - Ms. Cha.

I'm handling an urgent matter right now.

Let's talk later.

- Mr. Oh. - I'll think about it and call you.

Hello?

What do you think?

I agree with you.

When he's sorry, he gets angry at you first.

He raises his voice when he's lonely.

He's a typical patriarchal father.

I see.

What about his wife?

She won't admit it openly.

But she seems very frustrated.

It makes me wonder if she wants mediation.

I see.

I'll see what I can do.

Thank you.

All you ever do is thank me.

(Law Firm Daejeong)

I'm sure everyone here knows...

that it’s hard to have a rational conversation...

if feelings haven’t been addressed.

So we set up a meeting to talk one last time.

Right.

First of all, we made a report about our proposals.

Once you read our proposals,

I'm sure you'll find it reasonable to settle.

So here you go.

(Mediation Proposal, Plaintiff: Park Ae Yeon)

With two million dollars, she won't push to get a ruling.

She will agree to a divorce right away.

If we were to get a ruling,

it would go over four million dollars.

So it is a reasonable offer the defendant can accept.

I see.

If this isn't about your feelings,

do you want this case to be dismissed because of money?

Because you don't want to give her your assets?

Is this your first case?

Of course, that's it.

Well, if that's your concern, let's say...

the plaintiff asks for an amount...

lower than what we would get from a ruling,

you would settle right away. Correct?

Of course!

I'd divorce her right away if she only asked for that much.

But she demanded 4 to 5 million dollars.

That's why I don't want to divorce her.

It's within the range my client is considering.

Let's wrap it up then.

That's good to hear.

Then let's sign the document and submit it to the court.

Sure.

Sir, please sign here.

- Mr. Oh. - Hold on, Ms. Cha.

Why would we agree to the amount...

in their first proposal?

You should try to see if you can lower the amount.

I hired you to work for my interest.

You can't suddenly change your word.

Please don't...

Ms. Cha. You stay out of it.

If you keep acting stubborn, I might ask you for more.

I can take it to court.

- Then let's do it. - Yes.

You treated me like a housekeeper throughout our marriage.

So you must think it's a waste to pay me.

Did you...

ever consider me your wife?

What about you, then?

Did you ever consider me your husband?

Wasn't I just a money-making machine?

He wants to be acknowledged for working hard...

to make a living and support his family. Correct?

Say that straight up. Why beat around the bush?

What are you saying...

Hello, Ms. Cha.

Ms. Han, can we talk?

Yes. What about?

About the division of assets.

Mr. Oh offered two million dollars.

Really? My client wants two million.

We could reach an agreement.

If the amount matches...

and they still refuse to sign the agreement,

it means they're reluctant.

If that happens, let's quit representing...

and try interpreting instead.

Interpreting?

He never comes home, claiming he's working.

You have no conscience.

She means the time she spent at home doing chores,

raising a child, and waiting for her husband...

was long and tiresome.

She acts like she's above me...

because she raised someone else's kid.

He felt grateful and guilty enough...

that he thought...

Ms. Park was above him, but he was unable to express it.

What are you two doing?

We're interpreting.

If you want to interpret, do it properly.

I put my life aside...

to keep the family intact and the house going.

He calls that being haughty.

What makes you think he's grateful and guilty?

He's the one who has the upper hand.

Out of the yearning for approval and praise,

you think your spouse...

has something over you and you resent them.

Isn't that most married couples?

(Settlement)

Before you make the decision,

try to think as if you tried to drill in your stance instead of...

listening to your spouse, trying to understand them,

and showing consideration.

I'd like you to look back and think.

(Settlement)

What are you doing?

Thank you.

And I'm sorry, Ae Yeon.

- What? - Thank you.

For everything.

I was able to work long hours...

because of your sacrifice.

I was grateful and sorry I made you raise my son Woo Jin.

But I was foolish.

I was old-fashioned.

So I never told you so.

This could be my last chance.

I'm so...

foolish.

Thank you.

And I'm sorry.

No.

I was just the same.

I know you had a rough life.

I know you gave us a good life too.

But...

My pride took a nosedive.

And I was so lonely.

For 30 years...

I was always so alone.

- Shall we go? - Where to?

You wanted to eat king crab.

I'll buy you some.

My gosh.

I can see you bragging about spoiling me...

because you treated me to one expensive meal.

Get in the car already.

My gosh.

Father.

Yes.

Excuse me.

Open doors for her now and stuff.

Have a good time.

Bye, Mother.

Yes, Woo Jin.

See you at home.

Okay.

Thanks a lot.

It's not your job to help couples reconcile.

You should bill him extra.

Let's sit down.

Mr. Oh.

I could tell the day he came to see me...

that his eyes were filled with regret and reluctance.

But he kept being so prideful.

I met my mother was the same.

She separated from him out of pride,

but she asked me about Father all the time.

I see.

We helped Yu Ri and Eun Ho get together,

and we helped Mr. Oh reconcile with his wife.

We're doing a lot of good.

Yes, we did.

Jung Woo Jin.

Life must've been so tough for you.

So,

is there anything else you're keeping from me?

No.

I'll be your friend.

- Weren't we friends already? - Hey.

(Law Firm Spring Again)

(Law Firm Spring Again)

(Once winter ends, spring will come.)

- Hello, Ms. Cha. - Hello, Ms. Cha.

Hello.

Let's work.

(Attorney Cha Eun Kyung)

(Attorney Jun Eun Ho)

Hello, law firm Spring Again.

Okay.

Thank you.

- Mr. Jung. - Yes?

It's tough these days, isn't it?

I must work hard to keep Daejeong going.

Will you keep the Divorce Team going?

Yes. I'll do my best.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Goodbye.

Ms. Han.

Yes?

I don't think I said this properly.

Thanks a lot for wrapping up the case for me.

(Attorney Cha Eun Kyung)

What book are you reading so intently?

Shall we read that at home?

Okay.

("The Little Prince")

(Attorney Cha Eun Kyung)

- Jae Hui. - Yes?

The arboretum your dad took you to every year.

Yes. What about it?

Do you know a festival's coming up?

Yes.

Tell me if you want to go with your dad.

Okay?

Mom. Shall we order something when we get home?

- Gimbap and tteokbokki? - No, chicken and tteokbokki.

Okay.

- The lesson was so hard. - Yes.

I need to make a call.

- See you tomorrow. Bye. - Bye.

(Attorney Han Yu Ri)

(Mini Cha Eun Kyung)

Jae Hui.

Yu Ri. Can we meet up?

Sure. Where at?

(Law Firm Spring Again)

You can't keep insisting in court that it's love.

I thought it was love.

Okay, fine. Then last week's...

If our workload keeps increasing at this rate,

I doubt you'll have the time to go on dates with Ms. Han.

Ms. Oh.

How do you know I'm seeing Ms. Han?

When a couple who used to go out together to eat...

starts to leave one by one,

it's a dead giveaway.

I guess everyone knew but us.

You always said you couldn't wait to get married.

Are things going well?

I'm happy enough to be dating Yu Ri.

My gosh.

You're actually a romantic.

Attorneys your age...

are busy fielding calls from matchmakers.

So I thought you'd get married in no time.

Marriage itself isn't important.

What matters is your partner.

Some couples split up after just a year...

and some just date for decades.

Isn't that life?

Oh, hey.

- Goodbye. - Bye.

- Thanks for your help. - Take care.

- Bye. - Bye, sir.

Jae Hui. You look amazing in your uniform.

You're in middle school already.

Is something bothering you?

Why did you ask to see me?

My mom.

She asked if I wanted to see my dad.

I wanted to know what you thought.

You went through what I did. I thought you'd understand.

This feels weird.

Is it a meeting of daughters whose dads did wrong?

It is like that.

You won't get it unless you've gone through it.

He did such a bad thing.

I don't want to forgive him easily.

Jae Hui.

You might not get this.

But seeing your dad and forgiving him...

might be two different things.

How are they different?

Meeting him to have fun and laugh like before.

Doesn't that mean forgiving him?

Not wanting to see your dad because you want to punish him.

I get that so well.

But...

you shouldn't be punished as well.

You did nothing wrong.

You miss him, don't you?

I decided to put off seeing my dad...

until I'd forgiven him.

(The late Han Myeong Jong)

(Han Myeong Jong)

I never got to see him again.

I felt...

regretful.

I should've met up with him and hated him in person.

- Did he... - Yes.

He died.

That must've been hard on you.

Do whatever you want.

Don't overthink it.

If you need more time,

you can meet him later on.

Do you think my mom means it?

What?

That I can see my dad.

Yes.

Of course she means it.

I can guarantee that.

Don't you think she's pretending to be strong?

I think I'd be really upset if I were her.

I know that best.

Your mom wants you to follow your heart...

more than anyone in the world.

I think it's ready.

It looks good. Shall we eat?

- Give me your plate. - Okay.

Thanks, Ms. Han.

Bye.

(Ji Sang)

- Long time no see. - Yes.

Is...

something wrong with Jae Hui?

You fought for custody so fiercely.

Why did you never ask about visitation?

I wonder over ten times a day if I should...

call Jae Hui first.

But I decided it was only right to wait...

until Jae Hui called me.

She's just 14 years old.

Do you think she can do something that you find so hard?

She misses you too.

Do you really think so?

I called you out of concern that you two...

would drift apart forever.

Thanks.

How about you see her starting next week?

I guess the time did her some good.

Jae Hui smiles much more now.

Will she want to see me?

She might not be able to forgive me.

It's possible she might not forgive you.

But...

whether you gain her forgiveness or not isn't important.

What's important is that Jae Hui doesn't lose her dad.

(Attorney Cha Eun Kyung)

- Mom. - Hey, Jae Hui.

Give me a few minutes. I'll wrap this up quickly.

Sure.

What did you and Yu Ri talk about?

You don't need to know.

- What? - It's a secret.

Jae Hui.

I met your dad,

and he misses you dearly.

Would you like to go to his place sometime next week?

Am I supposed to hang out with him as if nothing happened?

You two were always so close.

It can be awkward at first,

but I think you'll have fun.

Is that possible for you?

Can I be honest?

Sure.

I...

will always be honest with you from now on.

I don't think I'll ever be able to forgive him.

But you...

can forgive him if you want or choose not to.

Just meet with your dad for the dad that he is.

He's your one and only dad.

(Law Firm Daejeong)

How could you have added a zero to the settlement?

The amount says one million...

instead of 100,000 dollars,

and I heard the defendant threw a fit in court because of it.

He cried his eyes out in court...

saying he couldn't earn that amount in a lifetime.

How could you have requested a million dollars from someone...

who has less than 200,000 dollars in assets?

There should never be...

a typo like this again on a petition.

This is a written statement that is lawfully binding.

I truly am sorry, Ms. Han.

Revise the typo and submit it again.

You can go back to work.

Right. I get it.

But Ms. Han.

Yes?

The case you took on yesterday.

The one with Kim Myung Hwan and his five mistresses?

Yes.

Was that not handled correctly?

Something raised a question while I was writing the petition.

There are six defendants in this case.

Should one single law firm be representing them all?

Defendant One felt guilty...

that his five mistresses were sued.

He offered to cover all their retainers,

and the six of us came to our law firm together.

Yes, I'm aware of that.

It doesn't seem ethical.

What?

The defendants could have contradicting stories...

and there could be a conflict of interest,

so is it ethical for one law firm to represent them all?

I found myself questioning that.

That was never the case at my old firm.

Your old firm?

Didn't you just pass the bar?

I worked as a manager at a law firm for five years...

before going to law school.

I see.

What you're asking falls under the purview of the managing partner.

Your job is to make claims for your client...

and back them up with evidence.

You may get back to work.

Sure.

Ms. Cha, the firm hired a rookie lawyer,

and I'm baffled as to how I can guide her.

I'm not confident answering a question like that.

Didn't you hear...

how two rookie attorneys quit before you came to us?

Only you were able to tolerate me.

What? That's absurd.

You're the one who made me fall in love with divorce cases...

which were what I dreaded.

Thanks.

What is she like?

Tell me.

I'm looking forward to the cases I'll be working on.

I'll do my best.

She has a pure soul.

It doesn't seem ethical.

She has a strong moral compass.

I see.

She was a manager at a law firm for five years...

before passing the bar.

But she's...

I'm fine sticking to public transportation.

I found myself questioning that.

That was never the case at my old firm.

She seems like a woman of principle.

But those qualities keep rubbing me the wrong way.

She's Han Yu Ri.

What?

I'm convinced he didn't have an affair.

I'll have the case dismissed.

The court should not allow this.

He must be taught a lesson.

You're right.

I apologize for that, Ms. Cha.

So this is what it feels like to be in someone else's shoes.

There's no particular advice I can give you.

I know you'll do way better than me.

Do you really think I can do well?

Try giving her more cases.

She'll find her answer while working on them.

To us attorneys, cases are the best medicine.

I see.

Maybe I should do just that.

I never thought of that.

Can you take a look at that?

I don't quite understand...

and am puzzled as to how I should proceed.

Are you and Mr. Jun still going strong?

Give me your hand.

My hand?

What is this?

We'll go on dates all the time, eat delicious meals,

and watch movies together like we are doing now.

I don't know what the correct answer is just yet.

Ms. Han.

There is no right answer.

Marriage, non-maritalism, and divorce.

They're all a choice.

What we should be good at...

isn't making the choice itself.

It's doing our best to make that choice the right one.

And if you've done your best,

you can choose a different option without any regrets.

Going back and forth between choices and responsibilities.

Isn't that life?

Sure.

Whatever choice I make,

I will do my best...

to make it the right one.

Thank you, Ms. Cha.

Go, Han Yu Ri.

Go, me.

Go, Cha Eun Kyung.

Ms. Cha, I collected all the evidence needed.

I have over 100 counts of irrefutable evidence.

Nice.

How about a cheers?

- Please enjoy. - Right. Thank you.

- Mr. Jung, when did you get here? - Hey.

- You're here. - Tteokbokki and gimbap.

- Here. Let me pour you a glass. - Gosh, thank you.

So tell me.

How are things going?

Sorry? About what?

You said you were going to wait until Ms. Han opened up.

- Right? - Actually...

I mustered up the courage.

I expected no less, Eun Ho.

What if the constant waiting sent me down your path?

What? Me? What about me?

Know that I'm rooting for you.

Cheers.

Unbelievable.

It's been a while since the three of us were together.

Right.

Here are her workbooks.

She's highly on edge because of her midterms next week.

You're in for a hassle.

She's highly strung when it comes to exams.

She gets that from us.

Don't worry. I'll make sure she's prepared.

She's not at an age where she needs that.

Just let her study on her own.

Sure.

Thank you...

for caring for her and letting me meet her again.

Smile and laugh with her a lot...

and be the one to close the gap.

I'll do that.

Jae Hui.

I'll get going,

so have fun with your dad.

I'll get going.

Jae Hui.

Having your children smile again.

Creating an atmosphere...

where they know they're loved by both parents.

That's the final step of a divorce.

- You saw that. Didn't you, Dad? - Nice!

I'm sorry, Jae Hui.

What children want aren't parents who constantly blame themselves...

but parents who fulfil their role.

You will be given ten more cases.

Think about the next written statement...

that should be filed and get back to me.

You can do that, right?

Try giving her more cases.

She'll find her answer while working on them.

To us attorneys, cases are the best medicine.

Of course.

At my old firm,

attorneys took on 50 cases at once.

With 10 more added, I'll only be up to 30.

This much I should manage.

Right.

(Law Firm Spring Again)

Yes, of course.

I'll be prepared for the next trial and manage that issue.

- This is Law Firm Spring Again. - Absolutely.

- Of course. - Don't worry.

You called us once.

(- Fate brought us together. - I love you. You know that, right?)

I'm glad there's more than enough evidence.

You'll be able to win a hefty alimony.

Are you done consulting the defendants...

in the five mistress case?

- Yes, Ms. Han. - How was it?

I wrote down their statements and submitted them.

Thankfully, there wasn't a conflict of interest.

I apologize...

for overstepping the other day.

Don't apologize.

It's natural for a rookie attorney to think from various angles.

Can I give you a pointer?

Yes, I'd like that.

Gradually, separate your character.

Separate my character?

Yes.

Separate Attorney Lee Han Na...

from the regular person that is Lee Han Na.

The latter...

should be left at home when coming to work.

Separate your personalities.

Han Yu Ri the attorney and Han Yu Ri the person.

Han Yu Ri the attorney can't blurt out...

what Han Yu Ri the person thinks.

You wrote up the statements quite well.

I will advocate for our clients,

so please observe from the gallery.

Sure, Ms. Han.

(Attorney Lee Han Na)

(Court, In session)

All right. Please state your petitions.

Last month, while the plaintiff was on Defendant One's computer,

she found evidence of Defendant One...

having extramarital affairs with five women...

throughout their marriage.

Please consider the maximum alimony possible...

while realizing that he had stepped out on her with five women.

Defending counsel, do you admit to the affairs?

Yes, Defendants 1, 2, and 5...

admit to what is written on the petition.

However, Defendants 3, 4, and 6 claim...

that they got together after the marriage was over.

Your Honour, the defendant admitted to the affair.

Please state that on the record.

No. Like I just said,

only Defendants 1, 2, and 5...

admit to what is written on the petition.

However, Defendants 3, 4, and 6...

only began a relationship after the marriage was over...

which makes the cases completely different.

(Defendant, Plaintiff)

Six defendants in one case?

That is one hefty retainer.

That's right. It's the heftiest yet.

The hassle will be out of this world too.

This case will drag on for a while, right?

We'll be meeting up once a month for about a year.

Is the plaintiff...

open to a settlement?

No.

Then,

is the opposing counsel open to some tteokbokki together?

I am.

Who is your good partner?

Are you someone's good partner?

(Thank you for watching and supporting Good Partner.)

(Good Partner)
