(The case in this episode is based on a true story,)

(and we do not intend to depreciate any specific religions.)

(Episode 7)

Hello, are you coming in now?

Yes, hello.

I shouldn't have confessed my feelings.

It's just me and her in this small office.

It'll be like this all day long.

You guys don't have any plans this evening, right?

- Pardon me? - No, I don't.

Let's have a team dinner. It's been too long.

How about some pork belly and soju?

Sure.

What is it? Do you have plans?

No, sir.

I'll see you at 7pm, then.

A team dinner sounds great.

Stop, enough. That's good.

See? It's important to go out for barbecue with close colleagues...

like this once in a while. Isn't this what life is about anyway?

Yes. You're right, sir.

All of us in Department 44 is like a family, you know.

We're a family, and we love each other!

By the way, why are you two all awkward?

Have your drinks, and let's have fun.

Drink up.

All right. Then I'd like to...

suggest something that can help us...

- bond even more. - Great, that sounds good.

Please raise your glasses.

When I shout "I love", you and the person next to you...

will clink your glasses together...

and shout "you".

All right, here we go.

- I love... - You!

Cheers.

You.

My goodness.

You totally threw us off!

I told you to do it with the person next to you, not in front of you.

You never listen to me.

My gosh, Do Yeon.

Do it with me too. I said I'd always watch out for you.

I love...

- Well... - I love...

Has she lost her mind or what?

She's dying to clink her glass with his.

- I love you. - I love you.

Let's drink!

- Cheers. - I love you. I love you.

I heard you got a case about defects...

in an apartment building.

Construction cases must be very stressful and complicated.

Gosh, I guess you don't know.

The worst of all civil cases are the ones that involve family feuds.

Family can be your worst enemy, you know.

- Hey. - Goodness.

- How dare you hit your sister? - Hey.

- You let go of me first. - Hey.

- Hey. - Let go.

Can't you let each other go at the same time?

Let go! Let go!

- You stay out of it. - You stay out of it.

- You little brat. - Goodness.

As a security guard, senior citizens are the worst.

You'd better open up now.

I'll meet with the judge..

and explain myself.

Sir, I explained it to you before.

You can't visit the judge in private when your trial is on-going.

That's why I publicly came...

all the way to the courthouse.

No, you came here in private capacity.

You're still talking back to me, you woman!

Open up now.

A professor has been visiting me every day lately.

This part. Because the witness lied,

I corrected the lie right away.

Why didn't you fix it to what I had said?

Sir,

I must type exactly what the witness said...

in the report for the examination of the witness.

Which article and clause of the Civil Procedure Code is it?

Are you sure you have proof for that?

Is this how they do things in the United States too?

All of you haven't been here for long enough.

Have you ever had a case with a pastor?

Hallelujah.

Exactly. Your problems are all trivial. Don't make a fuss.

Do a good job at your tomorrow's trial.

I love you.

(Court)

You startled me. Let's head in.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

(The oldest, 2nd son, 3rd son, and youngest daughter)

(The oldest, businessman)

(Second son, pastor)

(3rd son, professor)

(Youngest daughter, housewife who invests in real estate)

We should disown each other. Let's do that!

- Okay? - That's what I want.

- Great. - Got that?

- Let's cut all ties. - Sure, sure.

Hey, hey. That's enough.

Let me sum it up.

So your father gave the land to the oldest son,

but you're claiming that it should be void...

and it should be returned, correct?

No, what do you mean? That's not how it happened.

The Almighty from above is watching us.

Anyway, we'll examine...

if the transfer is valid or not during the trial.

But the registry is under the oldest son's name.

No.

Our father didn't give it to him.

He committed an immoral act and deserves to be sent to a fiery pit.

The defendant here...

used a 90-year-old man as a puppet...

and satisfied his own greed.

Lord,

- please speak to me. - What? "Defendant"?

I'm your brother. Treat me like one!

You couldn't even open your eyes before me when you were a kid.

- How dare you call me that? - It says so right there.

- How dare you call me that? - It says so right there.

Then how else would I call you? You're the defendant.

Quiet down. You're in a courthouse.

No, no. Don't stop them.

Why don't you let it all out?

- Pardon? - Go ahead, and fight. Go on.

So what if I'm here?

Why don't you fight all you want? Go ahead and argue.

I've been on the bench for a bit more than 20 years.

I figured out a secret tip while watching people fight.

Let me tell you what it is.

The fishier someone is, the louder his or her voice gets.

If someone has nothing to hide, they are quiet.

They only talk about what's necessary.

Our panel takes a note of such attitudes.

Our panel takes a note of such attitudes.

Ms. Lee.

I was observing them. Why did you stop them?

I understand, sir.

My apologies, Your Honor.

My older brothers have quite a temper.

Let me explain this to you.

Sure. Go ahead.

My father turned 90 this year.

He has a hard time walking on his own.

Starting last year, his memory is deteriorating as well.

That's not true, Your Honor.

Our father is still going strong!

My goodness, you've never visited him.

I thought something was up when you showed up...

to take care of him.

What did you say? You little brat.

Stay out of this.

I'm sorry, Your Honor.

Before the defendant took your father,

who took care of him?

After our mother passed away,

the youngest had taken care of him since he was single.

He also had an in-house maid.

I'm looking at your family registry.

Your parents had 4 sons and 1 daughter,

but the youngest isn't here.

He's an introvert.

Anyway, my oldest brother had never visited him,

but he made it his mission to take my father with him.

And he caused this mess.

My father had a lot of properties,

but that piece of land was the only thing he had left.

He took that land.

The appraised value of the land is over five million dollars.

It's in prime location too.

Be quiet.

Your Honor, my father has...

no reason to suddenly give...

that land to my older brother.

That's right.

He took advantage of his feeble mind...

and took his fortune.

That's not true, Your Honor. My father was upset that...

these brats lost millions of dollars which...

he worked hard to earn his entire life.

He gave the last piece of land to me. That's all.

- You spent all his money. - I can't believe you.

How dare you blame it on us?

- You brats... - He's watching everything!

- My goodness. - You jerk.

Hey, look. You're in court. Go to a church and pray there.

The argument of the plaintiffs is that...

since your father had dementia...

when he transferred the land to your brother, the transfer is...

- void, right? - That's right.

- void, right? - That's right.

I got it.

We'll take a short recess. We'll resume after 10 minutes.

Goodness, every word is a seed.

My big mouth is the problem. This is so annoying.

That was a tough case.

Let's resume after we take a break in the settlement room.

I should keep my mouth shut.

(Settlement Room)

I'm sorry. Go ahead.

No, no. I'm sorry. You should go in first.

You're the right-seat judge.

Please go in.

What are you doing? Come in already.

Yes, sir.

I've never seen...

a wealthy family that has a good relationship. Not even one.

Is that so?

Exactly. Money is the problem. It's the cause.

Let's say that there's a dead cow out in nature.

Then mobs of hyenas and vultures would crowd over the cow,

bite, and rip the cow. That's exactly what's happening here.

It's the meadow of the Serengeti.

Your presiding judge is speaking.

That's why I always say this to my children and wife.

Because I don't want to see that happening,

I'm only going to serve as a public official and go.

I don't have a penny to give to my children.

And the pension will stop when I die.

Think about how happy...

your families must be when you get old, right?

They said their father had millions of dollars.

It's hard for me to even imagine how he could save...

that much money.

I read that he ran a factory for auto parts.

How did he make that much money?

It's the land. The land.

Ever since my dad was young, whenever he had saved money,

he bought pieces of land as if he put money in a savings account.

The green belt was bound to be repealed when the governor changed.

With a new administration, a new city was bound to bloom.

You don't know which clouds will rain.

If you buy pieces of land here and there from all over the place,

those pieces of land won't disappear.

I don't understand how he ended up losing millions of dollars...

and had left with only one piece of land.

Even if they went to expensive restaurants and travel abroad,

it wouldn't have been easy.

It's hard to earn money, but easy to spend.

The easiest thing in life is spending money.

And the defendant is the expert at that.

What did you say, punk?

Do you know how much you took from our father for your businesses?

Do you know how much you took from our father for your businesses?

My father always said this to my oldest brother.

"I don't care if you don't work. Please just have fun."

"You should just go to bars and play golf every day instead."

"Just don't do whatever you're trying to do."

That little brat.

What kind of business did you run?

- I... - You Honor.

We're from an educated family with good background.

Think about how frustrating it must've been for us...

to bring this matter to court.

We brought it to court because we had it enough.

(July, 1997)

My gosh, I can't swing well with this.

Sir, how long will you work at the factory...

while your old man scolds you?

You should go independent.

I need the capital. I need the money to do my own thing.

This is your opportunity.

Borrow as much money as you can from your dad.

And invest the money in an international fund.

The world is getting globalized.

Should I do that?

He opened up a film production to get back the money he lost then...

after he saw how "Shiri" became a mega-hit.

For your information, my oldest brother...

only watches adult films with naked women.

Nothing else.

When small ventures were trending, he set up an IT company.

What was that? "Super Technology..."

"Network Systems."

For your information, my oldest brother is computer illiterate.

He never changes.

Recently...

Sir, let me say one thing.

"China is the jack-pot." That's what I think.

Korea and China have the most amicable relationship in history.

You'd be a fool to pass this up.

You'll make millions of dollars if a face mask becomes a hit.

I have this town in Shandong...

where I forged great alliances.

- Is that right? - Yes.

Your Honor, I've been working hard...

to make a living.

But these guys have been living off our father...

all their lives.

- I'm innocent. - What?

Gosh, they're family and siblings.

How can they fight like that in court?

It's all money's fault.

Money is what makes them so greedy.

I don't think money is at fault.

In my eyes,

they seem to be just following their human nature.

You said when a family is wealthy,

the family members can't get along, right?

- Yes. - To be precise,

you should rather say, "Wealthy families are..."

"no exception."

Not all poor families are happy either.

Why are you so negative about every single matter?

I'm not being negative. I'm just trying to be objective.

"Objective"?

Your own interests always come before your family or relatives.

All we need to do is make an objective legal decision.

There's not enough evidence that their father had Alzheimer's then.

The eldest son will benefit from his swift action.

Judge Park, you seem to have something to say.

Say it.

I don't.

Yes, you do.

It's written all over your face.

It's about time you screamed,

"I'm against it!" What are you waiting for?

Just by determining whether or not the land title transfer is valid,

will it solve the fundamental problem?

What do you think we should do then?

Why don't we go for mediation?

In this situation,

mediation won't work.

Even if the eldest son wins now, when their father passes away,

his siblings will file another suit, don't you think?

Half of the inheritance is...

required to be kept as legal reserve.

People think they can do whatever they want with their money,

but the law makes sure that one child doesn't take all the money.

You're right, but...

What do you think, Judge Im?

Their father is 90 years old, but no one knows how long he'll live.

Will the eldest son cough up the money in fear of future suits?

I think he'll try to find a way to hide it away.

That's why we need to do our best to persuade him.

Isn't it the court's job to find fundamental solutions...

to disputes?

They're responsible for finding solutions to their dispute.

The court doesn't have to interfere.

Well...

I think this dispute...

needs to be solved by mediation.

Your Honor, it's impossible to talk to these people.

Your Honor, I ask you...

to deliver a verdict.

I need you to do something by our next trial.

Imagine you're dividing an inheritance.

I want you to write down what would be the most reasonable way...

to divide it and why.

I'll take it into consideration, okay?

What did you say?

- Try writing it down. - What are we supposed to write?

- What are we writing down? - I'm not sure.

Let's give it a try.

Judge Im, try to find out how the inheritance should be divided...

considering the legal reserve, okay?

Pardon? Mediation was Judge Park's idea.

Why do I have to...

Judge Park came up with the idea.

Also, you're my right-hand man.

You're the right-seat judge. Stop being silly.

All right. But...

you're left-handed.

Oh, because of this?

Gosh.

You didn't know?

I'm ambidextrous.

What?

What did he say?

- Come on! - Okay.

I'll think about how to divide the inheritance.

It was my idea.

It's okay. Presiding Judge Han asked me, so I'll do it.

It's really okay.

- Don't worry. I'll do it. - I'll do it.

It's fine. I'll do it.

Okay.

(Court)

Oh, my.

Well...

I thought you had left.

I'm sorry.

I just remembered an error in the draft that needs to be fixed.

- I'll be quick. - Okay.

- Judge Park. - Yes?

What is it?

How long are you going to be so awkward around me?

I don't feel comfortable either,

but I'm afraid our work will suffer if this continues.

I'm sorry I caused it.

It's my fault.

In any case, our work shouldn't suffer.

We're...

judges.

I agree. I do think so.

Still, it's been bothering me.

I feel...

sorry too.

You don't have to feel sorry.

Do you think I'm that weak?

I'm Im Ba Reun.

Right?

I guess I was out of line.

I'll stop feeling uncomfortable.

Thank you.

Maybe I shouldn't have...

apologized.

Well... Son,

you're early today.

What's that?

I told you to buy the food...

instead of cooking all day.

Oh, my.

You're supposed to put your heart into memorial services.

If Uncle says that to you again, tell him to come prepare it.

With all his heart.

- Where's Dad? - He'll be home soon.

Who is he hanging out these days?

Who knows?

He has too many social groups.

Do you know what bothers me the most about Dad?

He's not even a salesman,

but he carries around an extra phone battery.

It's not like he's expecting any important calls.

It's just calls that ask him to attend a meeting or donate money.

Ba Reun.

Don't be too harsh on him.

Your dad is just kind.

Mom.

It's a sin...

to be incompetent and nice.

Since Ba Reun became a judge,

you seem to be buying new things.

How much did this TV cost?

It looks expensive.

Our old one broke down after 10 years,

so we got a new one.

We got a discount because it had been on display.

No way. It looks really expensive.

A lot of people want to set him up, right?

He should marry a girl from a rich family.

Who knows we'll benefit from it too?

Cut it out.

Public officials shouldn't chase money.

They're supposed to serve the people.

Others spend money to help others,

and he can earn money while helping others.

He should be grateful.

There you go again.

Let me tell you something now that I'm drunk.

You're such a selfish person.

Come on.

What is it now?

Be quiet.

Do you think your husband went to university because he was smart?

We were poor, and all the support went...

to the eldest son.

He should try to pay his family back.

But he's been hanging out with protesters all his life.

The world has changed a lot.

It seems like those people are taking all the important positions.

Haven't you got any offer?

Regardless of which side,

you need to be near those with power...

to get an opportunity.

They don't give an opportunity to just anyone.

If you're going to say those things, go home.

You dropped something.

After acting like you're above all of that,

are you scared that you might miss a call offering you a job?

Is that why you carry this with you?

Why? Do you think someone will call you up...

and offer you a spot in a human rights commission?

Goodness. He can't even say anything.

I'm taking the afternoon off.

It's a beautiful day today. Are you doing something special today?

My father is visiting from the countryside.

He wants to see the court even though there isn't much to see.

- I had the wrong idea about her. - About who?

I'm talking about Ms. Lee Do Yeon. I guess I misjudged her.

What exactly are you talking about?

Well, I thought she was mean and snappy,

but she's actually warmhearted.

I think she's participating in the event for the underprivileged.

She was like a very friendly, helpful tour guide.

It's not even her job, you know. She must've volunteered for it.

What? She said her father is visiting from the countryside.

- Her father? - Yes.

No, that was not her father. Definitely not.

That elderly man looked nothing like her father,

including his style.

It is her father.

She took the afternoon off...

to show him around the court.

That must be your father.

No, he's my boyfriend.

My goodness.

So that really wasn't her father?

Then is he really her boyfriend...

Judge Park said it's her father. Why do you keep talking nonsense?

Stop bothering us and get out.

That's not her father. Gosh, that really isn't her father.

I can't believe this. That man isn't her father.

My goodness.

There are times that I can't understand Judge Jung.

I can understand him from time to time.

By the way,

isn't the hearing for the sibling feud case this afternoon?

Will they be able to reach an agreement today?

In my opinion, the chasm will widen further.

It'll be like adding fuel to the fire.

Pardon me?

My oldest brother wasn't the only one.

My second oldest brother wasted as much of our assets as he did.

Please hear me out, Your Honor.

What makes you any better?

Your Honor, the sons are the problem in our family.

Our parents gave them everything they wanted...

and treated me as if I wasn't even their daughter.

Well, it looks like you all have a lot to say.

Then please take turns and tell us everything in a calm manner.

My second oldest brother is a pastor.

He's always been very loving and caring since he was little.

It's just that the recipients of his love was selective.

Hey, what are you talking about now?

He's incredibly benevolent and giving toward women...

who are at the bottom of society.

He bought a designer purse for a bar girl, so she can save face.

He even paid off her debt for her.

My goodness.

His statute should be built in the backstreets of Yeoksam-dong...

to commemorate his benevolence.

That is pretty impressive.

There's more. About the theological college he went to...

He failed the entrance exam three times, and he finally...

passed it, albeit barely.

But now, he's a well-respected pastor.

His church is in Yeoksam-dong. He pestered our father...

to put the piece of land in the area under his name...

and built his church there. He's doing very well for himself now.

You know what? You really aren't any better.

Your Honor, our father...

wanted to send him to an elite university,

so he tried to negotiate with their foundation.

But they asked for way too much money,

so our dad thought...

it'd be better to just buy a doctorate degree from the States.

That's why he sent my brother to a school there,

but it's not like you can earn the professor title for free.

In the end, he ended up paying just as much money to that school...

so that my brother can walk around with his professor business card.

Compared to that,

I got nothing from my parents.

They totally neglected me.

But from what I'm seeing,

your father gave you a piece of land that's well over...

a million square feet as a birthday gift when you were in your 20s.

Yes, he did.

I've been selling a piece of that barren field at a time...

to barely sustain myself.

Your Honor, since this is already brought up,

I'll tell you about every unfair treatment I've received.

I wanted a designer purse.

It's not even that much, but my parents refused to buy it for me.

That really hurt my feelings because I was...

a sensitive adolescent girl back then.

That has nothing to do with this case.

Why are you being like this to me, Your Honor?

Even you are belittling my words,

and ignoring what I'm saying.

Growing up, I was neglected because my parents favored my brothers.

Do you still have a lot more left to say?

Yes!

You see,

this isn't the only case we're working on.

Our department has to process many cases.

Let's wrap up today's trial here.

You can meet me in my office.

Pardon me? Your office, Your Honor?

Yes, this is my office. Please come in.

Yes, go on in.

Now, please feel free to tell me anything and everything...

you'd like to say. Let it all out.

Okay, thank you.

But I do need to ask you to be understanding about something.

Sure.

As you can see,

I have a mountain of case files to go through.

I'll be working at my desk as you tell me your stories.

You can have a seat here...

- Okay. - and tell me everything.

I'll definitely keep my ears open and listen to what you're saying.

I'm good at listening to people while working. I'm a good listener.

Then shall I start where I left off earlier?

About my birthday gift back in middle school.

Oh, right. You couldn't finish that story.

Birthday gifts are important, of course. Yes, go on.

They should've just bought it for you. Why didn't they?

Why did they even have me?

Yes, totally. They should've treated all children equally.

You've been through so much.

I'll never let any of my children experience what I went through.

Your Honor,

thank you very much for listening to me today.

No problem.

You got to let out everything you wanted to say, right?

Yes, for now.

Then you should leave for today.

Yes, you should get going now. Thank you for today.

Okay, thank you.

I'm already so sick of this case.

Sorry?

Recording phone conversations must be their family tradition.

They're starting to submit recordings that work in their favor.

Judge Park.

Don't you think it's a waste of time...

that we're doing all this work for this case?

"Waste of time"?

Yes. Aren't we giving too much importance...

to the fact that they're a family and siblings?

Is that what you think?

It's not like we can choose which family we're born into.

Just because they were born into the same family by chance...

Being blood-related doesn't mean all that much.

They don't like each other, and they don't even get along.

Yet they have to quibble and act like a family all their lives.

Don't you think that way of thinking is too sad?

Without family,

what do we really have?

Doesn't everyone live alone?

What else do we need?

Well...

I don't know why you're so sensitive regarding family matters.

My family means a lot to me.

I'm sorry.

Your family is going through a hard time.

I shouldn't have said that.

No.

It's not that it's hard.

My family gives me the energy to keep going.

That's why family is important to me.

The defendant has never done his duty as the oldest.

He'd complain every day that my father was living a long life...

and how he might end up dead while waiting for my father to die.

The youngest nursed and took care of him when he was ill.

Hey, hey. Look who's talking? You devoted your life to your career.

Have you done anything to take care of him?

The youngest did everything.

Your Honor, these brats had never visited my father unless...

they wanted to ask for money.

They couldn't do anything when my father was healthy.

After he'd fallen ill, they patronized him in his presence.

Nonetheless, I was the one who visited our father the most.

After he got dementia, you and your wives stopped visiting him.

You made the youngest to take care of everything.

You stopped coming as if you'd been waiting for it.

Goodness, thank you. Thank you so much.

Goodness.

You all loved your father dearly.

It looks nice.

Goodness. Gosh.

(Field Day with Family)

Why are they having this field day on a weekend?

Family...

That's great.

I bet the atmosphere would be great that day.

Doesn't everyone live alone?

What else do we need?

[VIU Ver] jTBC E07 Miss Hammurabi
"The Meaning of Family"
-♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

I don't know why you're so sensitive regarding family matters.

My family means a lot to me.

I get that things are hard for your family now.

We're not doing so well either.

Listen. We need to take care of Father who's all alone...

and support our children for their studies abroad.

I'm sorry.

I wasn't going to...

ask Dad for help.

Do you think Father has money growing in a plant pot?

Do you think that the plant pot never runs dry?

"A married daughter is no better than a stranger."

Hey, you're being too harsh.

Goodness.

She's right, Dad.

Why did you have to marry that kind of a family?

You're upsetting everyone.

You said even though his family was poor, but your husband was smart,

so we let you marry him.

He only has a nice title, suspended reporter. He's just unemployed.

How many years has it been?

You think he can get reinstated?

Tell him to either learn a trade or work on construction sites.

Go inside.

Honey.

Honey.

Come here.

Who is she?

It just happened.

What?

I told you it just happened.

What happened?

I'm going to take responsibility.

- What responsibility? - I said, I'll take responsibility.

Ba Reun, come on out.

He's your older brother.

Call him Ba Reun.

Ba Reun.

I'm home.

Hey, you're home.

I've never been there.

A high number of students with good grades...

are preferring to attend medical schools.

Every student who scored a perfect number on the college entrance...

exam applied to attend medical school.

Including students with a perfect score,

30 percent of students in upper ranks...

If the youth only chase after the money and security,

there won't be any future.

Don't you agree, Ba Reun?

The threshold of getting into Seoul National University...

They should take care of people falling behind...

and think about the direction they must take together.

That's what they ought to do.

The youth don't even have a future right now.

People in your times must've looked back and thought about the future.

You could get into conglomerates and become reporters even though...

all you did was join the protests.

Your junior alumnus whose father worked in the cafeteria...

became an instructor in Daechi-dong and bought a building there.

Your friend who was in the union became an assemblyman, right?

Did he go to prison for utilizing illegal political fund?

- Im Ba Reun. - The clerk I work with now...

studied for three years while living off street food in Noryangjin.

Just to become grade nine civil servant.

The security guard at the court was on the national team for taekwondo.

Whether it's at medical school or Noryangjin,

everyone is doing the best they can...

to survive.

They know too well that no one will help them in this world.

It's the world...

people like you shaped after thinking so hard.

What are you all four doing?

I told you to submit a reasonable proposal to split the asset.

Did I ask for letters criticizing each other?

I want all four of you to submit another proposal.

That's not it.

I just wanted to ask you to uncover the truth.

Truth, my foot.

Aren't you afraid of the universe?

Goodness, I'm about to die out of fury because of those people.

If I had my way, I'd confiscate the asset...

and help the people in need. That'd make me feel so much better.

Why don't we listen to them one more time since we haven't ruled yet?

Why would we listen to them again? Aren't you sick of them?

We haven't heard from everyone.

Who? The youngest son?

Is it because of his brothers' temper? He must have nothing to say.

He didn't even show up.

He must have something to say. He's family.

And one more person.

One more? Who?

Defendant, bring your father to court.

You... You want me to bring my father to court?

Yes, can you do that?

There's no way he'd do that.

We'll know he lied then.

I don't see why not. Fine. That's great.

You should ask my father yourself.

It's true that he gave me that land.

Are you sure your father can be present in court?

He has gotten much better these days.

He has.

Gosh, I can't concentrate.

Fine. Thinking about something too much...

doesn't suit me.

Okay. I must do something about it.

What are you doing?

Gosh, all I see here is yellow. It's all yellow.

What do you mean?

Do you have to ask? Both of you look yellow in the face.

It's all because you stay in this suffocating place the whole time.

You ought to breathe in the fresh air from outside.

It's nothing new.

Look at Ms. Park.

She's been awfully quiet and bored lately.

It's all because of this building.

- What about me? - Forget it.

Tomorrow is Friday. We can't let it pass without doing something.

Let's get out of this neighborhood...

and have a nice meal together.

That's right. What about the market where your aunts work?

They're a bit rough,

but their food is just amazing.

Well...

Tomorrow? Tomorrow is...

My aunts do talk about you from time to time.

Why would they?

I guess I'm pretty unforgettable.

All right. Let's do it.

I also noticed that...

Ms. Lee seemed a bit under the weather too.

She could join us. I don't mind.

All our stenographers work so hard, right?

I see.

You seem to have so much love for the court family.

Right? Yes, the court family. We're family.

Family should stick together.

You're going too as a family member, right?

I'm not sure.

Cut it out.

Stop spoiling the fun.

Let's just go all together as a family.

You must be feeling shy.

Text me, okay? I'm leaving.

See you.

Tomorrow...

(Park Cha Oh Reum)

(Birth Date: April 27, 1989)

I should forget about it. I can't give that to her.

We're not in a relationship.

It's your birthday, so I got you something.

No.

I had it at home, so I decided to give it to you.

It doesn't make sense.

I picked it up on the street.

Are you crazy?

Look who's here.

- Hello. - Our handsome judge is here.

Mr. Handsome.

I'm disappointed. You're wearing a suit that's too big for you.

That's right. He's being so modest.

I prefer a sexy look.

I borrowed my dad's suit today.

I was a bit afraid of your stares.

My goodness.

We're not going to eat you up.

Why are you doing this to me?

I'm a treasure to my parents.

Cut it out.

- Hello. - You're here.

Have a seat.

It's true.

My mom gave me a name...

that means "treasured prince".

They call me Treasured Prince at home.

I didn't know you were a prince.

- Why are you so treasured? - What?

It's because of my face.

I shouldn't have said it. It's embarrassing.

My goodness.

Come on. Watch your mouth.

Mr. Handsome.

Why do you keep looking around?

Is your girlfriend coming?

No. She's not my girlfriend.

She's not.

Is your girlfriend coming, Judge Jung?

Did you just get here?

Have a seat.

- Hello. - Hello.

Good. He was about to look around for the 100th time.

Gosh.

I thought he was a meerkat.

Hey. Stop distorting the truth.

You're judges.

Are you saying I was like this the whole time?

That's the 100th time.

Fine. Calm down, Treasured Prince.

Treasured Prince?

It's nothing.

Forget about it.

What's Treasured Prince? I have no idea.

Hold on.

Is she your girlfriend?

She's beautiful.

I'm impressed.

I have a peculiar taste.

Our assistant clerk is very mischievous.

She loves making inappropriate jokes.

I'm not joking.

What?

If you're an assistant clerk,

do you work at the court too?

Yes, I'm a stenographer.

I'm jealous of your skills and good job.

I don't have a good job. I only have a temporary contract.

My salary is small too.

Really? How much do you get paid?

- You can't ask her that. - I'm sure she gets this much.

Civil servants don't get paid that much.

I have skills too.

I have a level-two tteokbokki-making certificate.

I have a level-three pancake-flipping certificate.

Then I'm a level-100 stenographer.

Oh, my. I like you so much.

You're so straightforward.

You'd be good at running your own business too.

Should I quit my job and start a business here?

- You want to? - Be my partner.

Let's split the earnings 6 to 4.

They're amazing.

My family is very loud, right?

- Your family? - Yes.

You do seem very close.

That's not what I mean. We are family.

These three women have been living with us for 10 years now.

What?

At my grandma's house.

I moved in last.

So we really are family.

(10 years ago)

Come have a seat.

Are you really leaving the market?

It's love's fault.

What can I do?

My goodness.

Love, my foot.

You gave all your money to that jerk...

and have nothing left now?

You call that love?

I have so much love inside me.

I'm full of love.

Come live with me.

- Pardon? - My house is too big for me.

Wouldn't it be nice to eat together and everything?

Thank you.

Why are you crying?

Stop crying.

But...

I eat a lot.

Help!

Help!

What's that sound?

What's going on?

Your husband wants to start a business.

Why can't you help me?

My goodness.

What should we do?

Stop it!

Calm down!

Help!

Let go!

What are you waiting for?

Call an ambulance!

Hurry!

You can...

get a new family even when you're grown up.

When people go through a difficult time together,

they become a family.

And that's a real family.

Even if you don't share blood, you can be family.

Even if you share the same blood, you can be strangers.

Is that how humans are?

Oh Reum.

Aunt.

- Yong Jun is here. - Excuse me.

- Hi, Yong Jun. - Yong Jun is here.

Stop calling him like that.

We should call him Mr. Min.

You're here, CEO Min.

Happy birthday, Oh Reum.

How did you know?

I know everything about you.

Here.

What's all that?

Let's take a look.

Is Judge Park's birthday today?

Oh, my. It's so pretty.

- It's beautiful. - This one is even prettier.

It's so pretty.

Do I look like a celebrity?

What's all this?

I can't accept it.

I'm sorry. They were all so pretty I couldn't pick just one.

"I'll take everything from here to here."

I almost said that.

This is too much, Yong Jun.

Just this time.

Let me indulge Oh Reum this once.

You could wear them to dates too.

You're all so beautiful.

Oh, my. You've got good taste.

Aunt. Gosh.

Stop it.

Judge Im, you're here.

Yes. Hello.

Are they your colleagues?

- Hello. - Hello.

Hello. I'm Oh Reum's childhood friend,

Min Yong Jun.

For a childhood friend, you're very generous.

It looks like you guys are almost done here. Let's go somewhere else.

The second round is on me.

My gosh, it's my lucky day today!

- Let's go! - Nice!

Let's go.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

- Here's your jokbal. - My gosh.

Do Yeon, let's clink our glasses.

Judge Im, let me pour you one.

Give me that.

Yong Jun, he doesn't like to drink.

- My gosh. - Goodness.

- This is... - How generous.

It's okay. I'll drink it.

- Hey, hey. - Oh, my.

- Hey. - My goodness.

- This is good. - I don't know what will happen now.

These handsome guys are making me drink nonstop.

That's considered verbal sexual harassment.

- Oh Reum, let me pour you one too. - Okay.

- Move. - Okay.

Happy birthday.

- Oh, right. - Happy birthday, Oh Reum!

Happy birthday to you!

- Happy birthday. - Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Do you dislike your job...

as a court stenographer?

Do you like being a judge?

Well... I can't say I love it, but it's my job.

That's how all jobs are.

But it's helping me achieve what I really want to do.

Oh, being a court stenographer?

What is it that you want to do?

If I tell you, you'll be surprised.

Well, what is it?

I should get going.

Sorry?

I have to go to work.

Work? Wait, Ms. Lee.

Wait. Gosh.

Where did she disappear to?

Who are you, really?

Lee Do Yeon.

He's a lightweight. I guess that's his only flaw.

- He's a good, hardworking guy. - Totally.

He's so cute.

Hey, shall we...

start getting money together as your wedding gift?

- Answer me. - Something must be going on.

You must be somewhat attracted to him too.

Gosh, I told you that I'm not.

Judge Im is a really great senior colleague,

and he always helps me out so much,

so I'm very grateful to him, but...

He's not my type.

That's too bad.

- Then give him to me. - What are you talking about?

- Give him to me. - Drink water.

Stop drinking and have some water.

- Are you mad at me? - Yes, I am.

Taxi.

There are no taxis here.

I'm fine. I've sobered up, so you can go home.

- I should see you getting in a cab. - I said I'm fine.

Just get going.

Get home safely, then.

Judge Park.

I'm sorry, sir. Just a moment, please.

Take it.

I bought it because I thought it was pretty.

- Judge Im. - Happy birthday.

(Court)

Father! Father.

Coming all the way here must've been tiring.

Father.

It's me, your oldest son.

Gosh, you startled me.

But who are you, sir?

I feel so bad for my dad...

Did someone she knows pass away?

Why is that woman crying?

My gosh, this is strange.

His mind was sharp even until just yesterday.

Did you see that, Your Honor?

Our father has Alzheimer's disease.

He's been completely senile for a very long time.

Please watch your language. We're in a courtroom now.

And your father is listening.

Sorry about that. I didn't mean it that way, Your Honor.

Anyway, the inheritance has been annulled,

so please either return the assets to us or split them for us.

We must conclude this matter, Your Honor.

I've gone through your proposals for splitting the assets,

and there's one thing that all four of you seem to agree on.

There's nothing about your youngest brother.

All four of you left him out in your proposals.

Oh, I guess you don't know this, Your Honor.

He was adopted.

His father worked at our dad's factory but died on the job.

Our dad took him in because he had nowhere to go.

I know he was doing it out of pity, but he should've just...

taken care of him until he came of age.

But when our father was 50,

he put him on all papers as his son.

I wonder if that was when his dementia began.

I warned you to watch your language!

Your youngest brother is listening.

Goodness, he's not our brother.

You can just think of him as a guy who helps us with petty jobs.

He doesn't share a single drop of blood with us.

If he gets greedy for money and starts talking nonsense,

we'll have to take proper measures to sue him.

We've already found a lawyer who can help us...

dissolve the adoption.

- Of course. - Yes, we should sue him.

He should know his place. How dare he?

Blood is sure thicker than water.

Well...

What do you mean you'll sue me?

How could I fight a legal battle against my father?

Please just do as you wish. Go ahead and wipe me out...

of all the papers.

Father, when I first moved into your place...

as a little boy,

I starved myself and cried all day long.

That's why you came home with ice cream every night.

You see,

I still remember that sweet taste.

It was so sweet.

I'm sorry I couldn't take care of you until your final moments.

I should say goodbye to you now.

Father.

Please stay healthy.

I want to go home.

Where are you going without me?

I'm scared.

Father.

Father...

A drink of alcohol puts him to sleep.

Goodness, but he makes sure...

he's at every gathering.

My goodness.

Gosh.

- Mom. - Yes?

Why did you marry Dad?

What are you asking me?

What made you marry him?

Why? Do you not understand why?

Just because.

You...

Do you know that your dad's blood type is Rh negative?

What do you mean?

It happened when I was in college.

The express bus I was on...

stopped all of a sudden.

Ahead of our bus, there was...

a car accident four vehicles were involved in.

Everyone was trying to see what happened with the accident.

But some guy in a soldier uniform...

asked the driver to drop him off.

And he pulled out the injured people.

I got off the bus without realizing what I was doing.

When the ambulance came, that soldier guy said that...

they might need his blood for the injured...

and said that he'd accompany them to the hospital.

And he took out his chain with the serial number.

It said, "Rh negative" on the chain.

I thought that he was one nosy guy,

but I also found him attractive.

That's how we started seeing each other.

I pursued him.

Actually,

I think I might've pursued him because he was handsome.

Do you know why your dad takes an extra battery...

when he goes out?

It's because he's a member of the volunteer group for Rh negative.

He's always prepared...

so that he can donate his blood...

wherever he is and whenever it is.

Your dad donated...

about 100L of his blood throughout his life.

It's equivalent to donating...

every drop of blood in his body to someone else about 20 times.

That's the kind of man...

your dad is.

Then...

what about that kid?

What kid?

You know, that kid from a long time ago.

Some woman came to our home with a kid.

He told that kid to treat me like his older brother.

Oh, him?

He paid us a visit to say hello not so long ago.

He said he graduated college.

Goodness.

That kid grew up and became an adult now.

When your father was a reporter,

he had a favorite junior reporter, and he was the son...

of his junior reporter.

When he was dismissed,

he must've been stressed out.

He had cancer...

and left too early.

Was that it?

Yes, then who did you think he was?

I... I...

Why didn't you tell me that all these years?

That was too loud. Why are you yelling?

Did you get the wrong idea?

Forget it. What do you mean if I got the wrong idea? Goodness.

Goodness, come on.

Do you think your dad is capable of doing that?

All he thinks about is ways to help other people day and night.

You have a point though.

Dear me. He never thought about how things were with us.

When he wasn't even capable,

he only promised others that he'd take responsibility and help them.

When he brought home some money once in a while,

he sent the money to that kid for tuition.

You're right.

I don't know why I married your dad.

Oh, my.

You shouldn't marry someone for their looks.

Marriage is about the reality.

Ba Reun,

what do you think about meeting that lady...

my friend from church mentioned?

She's from an affluent family.

You're home, Ba Reun,

Yes, Dad.

You should sleep some more.

(Miss Hammurabi)

Mr. Im, I think you might be too involved in your case.

Do you feel like you can relate to the case?

It was hard, wasn't it?

Yes.

Is your mother's illness serious?

I'm disappearing...

from my mom's memory day by day.

- Let me come with you. - I need to handle this on my own.

Can't we handle it together?

If my left-seat judge is going through hard times,

we must deal with it together.
