THE JUDGE RETURNS

EPISODE 12

Please open your arms.

Your phone, please.

Please follow me.

Hello, sir.

We've met, haven't we?

Yes.

I heard you'd be taking Tae-sik's case in court.

That's new to me.

You'll hear about it soon enough.

The limit is 500 million won per year.

I'd like you to sentence him to five years in prison.

And he'll get the three-and-five sentence in the appeals trial.

A three-year sentence, suspended for five.

That's nothing new, you know?

Unless you want to check how I spend every penny of this

you can give the money to me in cash after the trial.

No need to leave traces.

Have a good day.

My phone, please.

I met Mr. Jang Yong-hyeon.

He told me to sentence Tae-sik to five years in jail

while handing a credit card with a 500 million won limit.

He can be so impatient.

Five years in the first trial

and three years in prison with five years on suspension in the next.

That's the magic formula for conglomerates.

- So? - Tae-sik's case involves

a few hundred billion won with the illicit loans and slush funds.

It's not a case to be handled by a single-judge criminal court.

I didn't answer him, as I didn't have your permission yet.

Tae-sik will soon be indicted while in custody.

A panel of judges will take on the case, so sort it out there.

Don't worry about the lead judge.

Conduct a legal review and finalize the sentencing order.

Oh, you might as well be promoted to a Presiding Judge for this.

But I'm not sure

how long his sentence should be.

Sin-jin has no interest in giving Yong-hyeon what he wants.

Give me an answer, and that'll be my verdict.

Didn't you hear me?

I thought I'd already answered you.

I'll follow the law.

But wouldn't that cause issues?

Don't look for justice through questions and debates.

Show me your justice

the equity and common sense

that everyone knows in their hearts.

I was going to get rid of them all

once I became the leader of Suojae, anyway.

You may go.

Yes, sir.

Have you decided?

Mr. Jang has more accounts under an alias, aside from those at Jeongdaun.

I'll give you half of the funds there.

So, 20 billion won. But promise me...

I'll be safe

after all this.

Of course.

Tell Yong-hyeon

exactly what he wants to hear.

Let Tae-sik take the fall for the slush funds

but you take care of the illicit loans

without Tae-sik hearing about them.

Think of it as being extra loyal.

Come on.

Open an account.

I'll give you a bonus.

Sir...

I might lose my license to practice law.

You don't earn much with that license, anyway.

I'm your pot of gold, not your license.

Me, Jang Yong-hyeon.

Trust me.

Judge Lee has been assigned to the case

and Mr. Kang told him to sentence Tae-sik to five years in jail.

As he should.

Make sure your testimony matches

that of the loan officer at Jeongdaun Savings.

And make sure Tae-sik isn't involved in the illicit loans.

- You know what I mean? - Yes, sir.

You're basically family to S Group now.

Congratulations.

- Thank you, sir. - Sure.

We're representing Mr. Jang, the CEO of S Shopping, in court.

Han-young will be on the panel of judges.

He may be an associate judge

but he'll dictate the verdict.

Make a team and take on Tae-sik's case.

Me?

- Really? - Why are you so surprised?

It's about time you get some experience.

Maybe start dressing up, too.

Are you on the panel of judges for Mr. Jang's trial?

Haenal Law Firm is really in on all the secrets.

Of course.

Dad wants me to make a team to represent him.

Eat up. It's on me today.

If this is your bribe for Mr. Jang's case, I don't want it.

Have you already forgotten about my help with the Miracle scam?

You asked for a meal at my house in return for your help

which you got.

That means neither of us owes anything to each other, Ms. Yu.

Fine.

I get it.

But why do you keep calling me "Ms. Yu"? It's like we're strangers.

Are you distancing yourself from me?

Seriously.

I just want to...

Gosh, I wish I could just punch you once.

Just one punch, please?

Why? Was the slap on our first date not enough?

I should've hit you more then.

Don't take Tae-sik's case.

I've already agreed to take it.

Mr. Kang is behind Han-young joining the panel of judges.

He's got S Group's back.

It'll just be a five-year sentence in prison

so just don't mess up.

Aren't you sentencing him to five years in jail?

We'll bust S Group entirely

starting from Tae-sik to his father's slush funds.

We're shaking up the whole conglomerate, so don't get involved.

Really?

Yes, Lee Han-young speaking.

I made Yi-seok the Chief Justice, as you suggested.

Looks like you'll soon have the Chief Justice as your legal advisor.

Congratulations.

I once ran

like there was no tomorrow.

Are you a professional runner?

No.

If you're not a professional

why are you running so hard?

What?

I couldn't answer him.

I didn't know why I was running so hard.

And I definitely didn't know when to stop or where I was.

But I started living a different life

and finally realized why I had to keep running.

I know why I have to keep running now.

To become a better person

for my family

and the person I love.

And for myself.

What kind of a life

did you live before?

Someone said

I was garbage.

"Garbage"?

Come on. There's no way.

Don't take Tae-sik's case.

Let your brother or sister take it. Let them be greedy.

Is it

really that bad of a case?

What do you want to do

once the law firm becomes yours?

Well...

That's...

Why didn't I think of that?

Let's go.

Let's run!

SEOUL CENTRAL DISTRICT PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

LETTER OF INDICTMENT YOU ARE INDICTED AS STATED BELOW

PRINT

CHIEF PROSECUTOR KANG JI-HWAN

DETAILS REGARDING THE DEFENDANT

What's this?

He takes money from elders who collect scraps

and kids who collect every penny they get

for his drinking parties every night.

Don't you know giving non-profits a bad rep like this

makes people stop donating, even to good charities?

Think of it as an opportunity cost for our society and stop here.

Our society?

For whom in our society?

A significant portion of the donations goes

to a borrowed-name account of an unidentified person.

I told you to stop, alright?

Do you get a share of the donations, too?

Cheol-woo!

Do you want to get fired right now?

You want me to leave you with absolutely nothing?

Why can't you just say it's not true?

It's not true, you bastard!

Who gets the money, then?

Why are you asking me?

Get this out of my face

unless you want to get fired right now.

Our country's prosecution is rotten.

Why? Were you told you'd be fired?

- Did you spy on me? - I didn't need to.

Here comes another one.

Daejin Daily says

we can't publish a word about this.

And the reporters from other agencies ran the minute I mentioned the foundation.

They don't want to tackle Seonjin because Gwang-to is the face.

Does that make any sense to you?

Those who don't know what Gwang-to is really like think

he's just a kind, former President who always thinks of his people.

Cheer up. You knew it wasn't going to work.

- No, I didn't! - No, I didn't!

I was sure we could do this.

We found fraudulent ledgers!

How can we not investigate it?

Did you tell us to do this, knowing we'd fail?

Did you really?

The corrupt are resilient. It only hardens under outside pressure.

To break it, we have to trigger a fracture from the inside.

Now that they know the press and the prosecution are on it

they'll start to get on it, too.

Then, once they realize

things aren't going as they'd expected

they'll start to split up.

Then, the corrupt will finally break.

You used us as baits.

He definitely did.

I guess I'm the hook.

Are you the worm?

- Don't put it like that. - No, krill.

I don't know how he got it

but Prosecutor Park has

the Seonjin Foundation's fraudulent ledgers.

I don't think he's going to stop.

We should've gotten rid of him when we got rid of Jeong-tae.

It'll get messy if he keeps this up.

Should we get on it now?

I hear Cheol-woo is asking to investigate the foundation.

If anything happens now, the whole world will watch them.

We have no choice

but to face it.

We've never met, have we?

No, but I know who you are.

There's an opportunity cost

to establishing justice.

Does it also cost people's lives?

That's not nice.

I didn't know there was a price tag to achieving justice.

What's justice to you, Mr. Park?

Arresting all bad guys, no matter what.

That's what justice is to me.

I like how simple it is.

You want to strike the Seonjin Foundation? I can help you.

Arrest the Chairman for embezzlement and breach of trust.

Would that establish justice for you?

He's using the Chairman as a sacrifice for the foundation.

What do you think?

Let's accept the sacrifice first, as Sin-jin wants.

And then?

We'll sprinkle salt before the wound heals.

Kwak Sang-cheol, the opposition party's hitman.

He's known as the "crazy dog"

for all his bluntly honest whistleblowing and slander.

Mr. Lee Han-young?

Thank you for coming.

The future son-in-law of Haenal wants to discuss party nominations.

Who would say no to that?

I'm guessing it's not for free.

I need you to attack someone.

I guess Haenal has an enemy?

No, this has nothing to do with the law firm.

The target is

Park Gwang-to, the former President.

Are you out of your mind?

Your ammo is corruption in the Seonjin Happiness Foundation.

Mr. Former President isn't a man

who will fall with just one shot.

But he'll reek of blood where the bullet hits him.

And that's enough for me.

Oh, so

I'll leave him a scar, and you'll rip it open?

Okay, I see what you want now.

How can you guarantee that my party will nominate me?

You'll be the hitman of the opposition

who uncovers the former President's misconduct.

That'll earn you all the popularity to become a presidential candidate.

What?

So, I have to do all the work to get what I want?

But I'll give you all the tools for the job.

and he admitted to the charges.

As you said

it seems that his father is sacrificing him.

Anything else?

Just nonsense, you know.

He offered me the last chance for me to join his side or whatever.

I was so close to throwing a punch at him.

I regret having held back.

Where are you? I'm almost there.

Me too.

- See you soon. - Okay.

I thought Tae-sik would use that week

to harm Prosecutor Kim.

Is it decaf?

Okay?

But Tae-sik didn't do anything in that one week.

PROSECUTOR KIM JIN-A AT THE CENTRAL PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

PROSECUTOR KIM JIN-A JUDGE LEE HAN-YOUNG

The last chance... That means

Tae-sik just needed a week

to plot Ms. Kim's murder.

That means

Tae-sik is at the detention center

waiting for Ms. Kim to die.

Someone to send

Prosecutor Kim Jin-a far, far away.

And as a farewell...

No.

Oh, my phone.

Shh!

Goodbye, you crazy bitch.

Goodbye, you crazy bitch.

Are you okay?

Oh, gosh.

I'm fine.

Are you?

Oh.

I definitely broke

Tae-sik's back.

- What's wrong with him? - Hey!

Mr. Park...

What's with you?

That bastard!

Are you alright?

Yeah.

Are you hurt?

Let's head in.

What took you guys so long?

You were the last one to come!

Let's just go.

What a weirdo.

Thank goodness the scar isn't so deep.

I guess so.

I get why he kept yapping about my last chance.

So, he needed a week before detainment

to find an assassin?

Suojae is starting to fall apart after Gwang-to's arrest.

Sin-jin will jump at this chance

and try to take over Suojae.

I guess the real power struggle begins now.

The internal conflict will be a great chance for us.

Can we kill them?

- No. - Fine.

I'm Byeon Jae-yeong

Mr. Jang Tae-sik's assistant and attorney at S Shopping.

The reason

I'm here today is...

I'm here today, because...

You're sure

I'll be safe, right?

Mr. Kang, the Chief Judge

directly promised to keep me safe. You know that, right?

You bitch. You've lived for too long.

My eyes opened at the crack of dawn.

I couldn't wait to see you.

Defendant Jang Tae-sik

used a paper company

to get an illicit loan of 120 billion won

and hid 50 billion won in slush funds

at Jeongdaun Savings Bank.

Hey, didn't Byeon say he'd take the blame

for the illicit loans?

Why isn't he here?

I'm sure he's on his way.

What's taking him so damn long?

The Defendant came clean to me

regarding his slush funds.

Does the Defendant agree?

Yes, he vows to provide full restitution

for the illegally-acquired profits.

Yeah, I promise, alright?

Just give me five years in jail so I can move on to the appeals.

Where's Byeon, this bastard?

Your Honor

the Defendant is entirely denying

all allegations regarding the illicit loans.

Accordingly, I'd like to move to call an additional witness

to prove the counts of the indictment.

I object, as we did not agree on this witness prior to the trial.

What should we do about the witness?

It is mandatory

for the prosecutor to discuss and settle all relevant evidence and witnesses

with the Defendant and his attorney in advance.

However, the Court may assess and agree on evidence and witnesses

in necessary and urgent circumstances.

Your Honor!

Will the prosecutor tell me more about the witness?

He's a witness of the Defendant's loan of 120 billion won, taken out illegally.

That means

the witness is necessary and urgently needed.

Your Honor!

The request for the witness is granted.

What's going on?

Isn't he on our side?

The witness won't come to speak in court today.

However...

LOCATION TRACKING

- What? - I'm Byeon Jae-yeong

- What is he doing there? - Mr. Jang Tae-sik's assistant

and attorney at S Shopping.

What the hell is going on?

A new witness will come forward in Tae-sik's trial.

I've talked to the prosecution

so grant the request for the witness.

I've come to clarify

that Mr. Jang Tae-sik ordered me to get the illicit loans

at Jeongdaun Savings Bank.

However, something sits heavy in my heart, and I'd like to make a confession here.

Dad probably has some slush funds at Jeongdaun, right?

He wants to sacrifice me

because he doesn't want anyone to mess with that.

I can't let anyone take that money.

That'll all be mine one day.

Fine. I'll take one for the team.

Hey, Dad.

What are you doing? Stop them!

Make her turn that off!

It's too late.

This is where you need to listen up.

That bastard!

- Hey, Byeon. - Yes?

Find someone.

What for?

Someone to send

Prosecutor Kim Jin-a far, far away.

And as a farewell...

Goodbye, you crazy bitch.

Please sentence the Defendant to 20 years in jail

and a fine of 20 billion won.

Please also order a forfeiture of 170 billion won.

JUDGE

DEFENDANT

And in a few days

he'll be detained once again for instigating the murder

of the prosecutor who detained him.

All of this is a lie!

That prosecutor bitch is lying about everything!

What the hell are you doing?

You're a lawyer, too!

He's the same man from the past life.

Let go!

GOODBYE, YOU CRAZY BASTARD

Ms. Kim hasn't changed, either.

What? Did you just cuss at me?

Huh? Hey!

Lawyer! That bitch just cussed at me!

I'll sue you for assault!

What did you say, you bastard?

Let go!

Let go of me right now!

That bitch is lying about everything!

Let go!

Your Honor, please read the final verdict.

The verdict is ready.

The court sentences the Defendant

The court also orders

DEFENDANT

Great work, Ms. Kim.

COURT

Dad

I put Tae-sik in jail today.

Aren't you proud?

Meanwhile, the prosecution found

slush funds of Jang Yong-hyeon, the Chairman of S Group

in its investigation of Jeongdaun Savings for Mr. Jang Tae-sik's slush funds.

The prosecution is focused

on the possibility of Chairman Jang

hiding huge wealth using borrowed-name accounts and affiliates.

The prosecution may extend the investigation

to the whole Jang family.

Things are looking pretty terrible right now.

You need to give us more time.

This is the prosecution.

Mr. Jang Yong-hyeon

you're under emergency arrest

on charges of creating slush funds, tax evasion, bribery

and violations of the Political Fund Act.

Here comes Mr. Jang Yong-hyeon.

The enemies will start striking back now.

Okay, got it.

SEOUL CENTRAL DISTRICT PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

Who's behind this?

Why does that matter?

You thought you'd be fine after messing with S Group?

If you don't want to get fired, go.

- Right now. - On it.

EMPLOYEE PASS FOR KIM JIN-A SUPREME PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

Come in.

May I?

No need to pity me.

I'm excited to leave.

I know. But where are you going?

Hyenam or something.

Maybe it's a vacation for doing so well.

I won't wait long, okay?

We still have a lot to get done.

- You need help? - I'd appreciate it.

Please pack this.

Is it for leaking case files?

Can you not always get it right?

I saw it coming the moment I gave Ms. Song

the photo from the security camera footage.

No need to feel sorry... Why...

- Here... - Come on.

It's okay. It looks cute.

I can't believe I look like a panda.

Where are you off to?

I thought you knew everything.

I hear Ms. Kim is going to Hyenam. You, too?

They both hate us, so no.

I'm not telling you where I'm going. Don't call me, okay?

You're not going to tell me? Okay.

You're just leaving now? That's just disappointing.

Wherever you're going, you'll be back soon, anyway.

- Huh? - See you soon.

But I...

So, if I'm coming back...

I...

Gosh.

Good work.

Didn't I tell you

I'd bring you back to Suojae as soon as possible?

Alright.

Congratulations

on your safe return, Mr. President.

THE JUDGE RETURNS

Sin-jin's rebellion has begun.

Call a meeting at Suojae tonight.

We'll get rid of it if it looks problematic.

I never trusted you from the start.

You don't have anywhere to run.

So, we'll have to give what Sin-jin wants.

He killed a man!

So, you approached me for me.

I think I'm getting blamed.

This is the last chance.

It won't take long.

I was ready to go all the way when I started, anyway.
