KANG SOL B'S PLAGIARIZED DISSERTATION

MY VIEW ON KANG SOL B'S PLAGIARISM

BY PROFESSOR YANG JONG-HOON

Bring me the laptop.

You think I can't find you, right?

PROFESSOR KANG JU-MAN

I thought I made it clear.

You aren't allowed to use a laptop in my class.

Professor.

A student's right to use a laptop in class is

a matter of self-determination

as guaranteed by the Constitution.

And?

I don't want Article 10, the right to pursue happiness, infringed

during the Constitution lecture.

Don't you think

what you just said infringes my right to hold classes as the professor?

This is my court,

and I have a right to teach however I like when I'm in my turf.

Don't you think you're abusing your right?

It's your dereliction of duty as a student!

I'll have points deducted.

Do you believe others didn't bring their laptops

just because of their grades?

I don't know what others are thinking.

I weighed the pros and cons of using a laptop during this class,

and decided having it here benefits me more.

Then was this on your list?

The fatal fact that you will be remembered as the worst student

I ever had in my career.

Yes, Professor Kang.

Did you tell Kang Sol B to pick up her laptop at my office?

She hasn't come for it yet?

I clearly remember telling her.

YANG JONG-HOON TRASH

Professor?

Are you sure this laptop is Kang Sol B's laptop?

Yes, I almost had to take it from her by force.

KANG SOL B'S PLAGIARIZED DISSERTATION

KANG SOL B'S…

MY VIEW ON KANG SOL B'S PLAGIARISM

BY YANG JONG-HOON

I found this while preparing a paper on publicizing criminal charges.

The student in question is

Kang Sol B, a freshman at our school.

This is practically a translated copy

of a paper you wrote

for Law Review while you were studying at Harvard.

KANG SOL

I'll meet Kang Sol B first to check

-the facts of the matter-- -No.

I'll see her first.

Bring me the laptop.

You think I can't find you, right?

FROM YANG JONG-HOON

PROFESSOR KANG JU-MAN

What brings you here at this hour?

Please take a seat.

If it's about the dismissal--

I can't resolve that by visiting you. I'm visiting the president tomorrow.

Then what brings you here?

The biggest reason for my arrest was destruction of evidence

because my laptop went missing.

I've heard.

At first, I thought I had lost it,

then remembered keeping it in my office that day.

Why are you telling me this?

Someone could've stolen it.

I'm having a reasonable doubt.

Someone stole it? Why would anyone steal your laptop?

What do you think?

It was a new laptop, so it only had references for the plagiarism.

There were no leads or evidence that'd point to the culprit.

There was no reason for me to hide that.

References for the plagiarism?

I bet you saw that too.

My view on the plagiarism of Kang Sol B's research paper.

Why do you have 12?

If you had some until this morning, you should have six left.

You haven't taken this for three days!

That's why you missed the comma.

Take it.

It wouldn't have happened if you lived at home.

Hey, what are you doing?

LAW SCHOOL ENVIRONMENTAL LAW

Happy now?

I'm staying here.

We need some privacy.

What?

She has the same name?

I never liked how you had to share a room with that girl.

B? Why should my daughter be the B?

This is so annoying.

Are you saying Kang Sol B

took your laptop because of your opinion on her plagiarism?

The content is also in my head, so that can't be the only reason.

In that case, do you think the reason she took it has

a connection to Professor Seo's death?

I'm staying here.

-You're going to stay here? -Yes.

Again?

Your dad's the last one who gets to defy me.

Spit it out.

I'll go with you, so spit it out.

She missed the comma for not taking her medicine?

Whoa, hey. Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Whoa.

Ye-seul.

Sol, I'm fine.

I think I had too much to drink.

I'll go to sleep.

Okay.

Are you sure you're okay?

Have you met with Kang Sol B?

Not yet.

I waited for Professor Seo to meet her first before I dealt with her.

The president is already deeply concerned that a murder case broke out

at our law school.

If the controversy over plagiarism breaks out…

Covering it up may be an option.

That's not what I meant.

Once we restore the school's reputation--

Please do your best to restore our ruined reputation.

Professor Yang.

I'll manage the plagiarism case.

Professor Yang!

I knew I shouldn't have let you join a study group.

Those good-for-nothing study mates

made your grades drop too.

How on earth can your grades be that low for the Criminal Code?

And the Constitution too.

Did you have to get points deducted over a laptop?

At least you still got an A plus.

It doesn't matter anyway because of my paper.

No one will turn that into a problem.

Only victims can complain about copyright, and Seo Byung-ju is dead.

Yang Jong-hoon.

Professor Yang knows.

No one would believe a murderer.

Don't get weird ideas and--

The sugar packet.

It was on the table as he stated.

So what?

It wasn't Professor Yang who…

Tell me.

If it wasn't him, who was it?

METH LETHAL DOSE

Why won't he pick up his phone?

Hello?

Your daughter saw the sugar packet.

Why did she lie to the police?

That's not all.

I looked at her phone too.

"Meth lethal dose, where to get meth, how long does it take

for a person to die after meth intake?"

Why did she search for these?

Could it be her?

No, right?

It's not about her stopping to go to the psychiatrist.

PROFESSOR YANG JONG-HOON

PROFESSOR YANG JONG-HOON

Kang Sol.

Your laptop is in the professor's office.

-Why? -It was his order.

You're to pick it up.

So why did you insist on having the laptop--

KANG JU-MAN, IN A MEETING

Yang Jong-hoon's laptop wasn't in Han Joon-hwi's locker or room.

He said the one who took the laptop is the culprit?

Let's go study.

Dry my hair.

You can use that as an apology.

I had reasons to doubt.

You did feel sorry.

Then just say you're sorry.

-That's too hot! -Gosh, I'm sorry.

It was cold wind.

That was easy, right?

Anyway, about the sugar packet Prof. Yang mentioned.

You didn't see it on the scene?

No. Why?

If someone can testify that the sugar packet was there,

it'd help him greatly.

I got my own problems, but this case looks frustrating too.

I'M IN A LIBEL SUIT

-How did you know? -My gosh.

Why couldn't you be here sooner?

Go join the police if you can spot autopsy fabrication.

That?

I took a completely wild guess,

so I just got lucky.

That Gollum with connections did all the big work.

What about your aunt?

She should be punished for her crime.

What are you up to?

"Bad FaMa"?

Yes, a website that exposes parents who refuse to give

child support after their divorce.

The website operator got sued for libel.

So what's with this familiar face?

You know my situation.

I have too many papers due and too much to study.

Yet Kang Sol's passionate heart

refuses to turn down this frustrating case?

Why didn't you just study

instead of joining the Legal Clinic?

I can see everything.

If I help, let's call it even for you helping me.

Even, my foot.

You need to prove Professor Yang's innocence.

What's this?

MY ROOMMATE HAS LEFT

She's dropping our study group?

Dropping? Who's dropping what?

I thought you came back.

Welcome back.

I'm sorry to make you worried.

What time are we visiting them tomorrow?

-At four o'clock. -Okay.

Did you look through the website?

I did.

Can you print that?

Okay.

Just do as I say.

We stopped seeing the psychiatrist,

but we've done well.

If you really think so, let me stay in the dorm.

No.

Drop the study group, get a tutor.

You know the first-year grades are very important to be a law clerk.

Stay focused on your study.

Do you understand?

Don't worry and just do as I say, then--

Speak for yourself.

Sol.

Is this why you didn't let us read your paper?

I've been meaning to come and see you,

and I happened to take your call.

Vice Dean Kang said

you met the dean over your daughter's grades.

I went to see her as a parent of a student at Hankuk Law School

over the nonsense of how they let someone

who got arrested for murder charges write the midterm test questions.

On top of that, you're indicted and removed from your office.

I was removed as an administrative measure.

It's as good as a punishment.

If you'll be tried for murder charges, doesn't it disqualify you

as a professor at a law school?

Before you say that, let's discuss your daughter's paper.

It wasn't just plagiarism, but copyright infringement.

Since her grand prize played a part in her admission,

so it could be revoked too.

Remember? I was fluent in English by middle school,

getting full marks in TOEFL and TEPS.

As you can see, she also participated in global mock trials, mock UN committee,

and was awarded in various debate competitions.

Weren't you jealous when I won the Best Reporter Award

at the Constitutional Court

over high school and university students?

But this paper, in middle school?

Sol helped him write that paper,

but he only listed

his name on the byline when he turned it into Harvard Law.

Are you saying Prof. Seo took advantage of her?

He said he can't finish that dissertation,

so we thought that was it.

We didn't know he published the paper without her knowledge.

He completely disregarded that middle school girl.

So your daughter had no idea he published the paper?

I just wrote my paper with the material I researched.

-And she submitted it in the contest. -In conclusion,

this is a middle schooler's paper?

All of her father's side is in law.

Her home was filled with law books.

She played with those since kindergarten,

and knew the Constitution better than the National Anthem.

She's capable of doing this with her born legal mind.

That's for me to decide as a professor.

I don't care if you buy it.

You must be disappointed.

You wanted me gone like Joon-hwi.

No way.

He was so happy that he even dried my hair.

I'm glad, then.

You wrote a paper in middle school?

With what you can do, I believe that.

I apologize for how my uncle treated you with disdain.

Fabricating the cause of death?

I thought it happened only on TV.

I knew you didn't do it.

You even announced how suspicious Joon-hwi was.

That's because…

my grades were already very awful,

so I couldn't risk getting on Yangcrates' bad side.

How much do you want to forget how I offended you?

I'll pay up over 24 months!

I wanted your side of the story.

Prof. Seo prepared his paper with you

while you were in middle school, then published it as his own?

Yes.

If I had known he published that paper,

I wouldn't have turned it in for the contest.

I heard you'd met with Prof. Seo.

KANG SOL

KANG SOL

Come in.

Take a seat.

With my mom.

She was very angry

that my paper was mistaken as plagiarized.

According to your mother,

Prof. Seo apologized to you, right?

Is it me this time?

So what if he doesn't believe it?

We told him that's our case.

How is he going to cross-check this with a dead man?

Enough is enough!

Your daughter and I are perfectly sane.

It's all your fault!

I had a question.

Dad.

If only you passed the judicial exam and became a judge.

You were with me at the time

when Prof. Seo was murdered?

Do you think the reason she took it has

a connection to Professor Seo's death?

No, it wasn't her. She was with me when the case broke out.

She was with you?

She insisted on using her laptop in class,

so I called her and had a talk with her.

You weren't.

You didn't say that to the police.

Then why

didn't you say anything?

You said you saw this.

What about you?

Why didn't you say anything?

I have a sweet tooth.

You needed Prof. Yang

-to become the suspect-- -Enough.

We'll talk at home.

What if Prof. Yang sees this?

Don't bring this to school.

Make his suspicion solid.

Did you get rid of his laptop?

Are you okay?

How can I be okay? I can't even give a lecture.

Should I nitpick over this with the president?

This one is a criminal case.

Since I gave birth, it's too much to be the chief of the Legal Clinic.

Hey, what's this? "Kang Sol B"?

My goodness.

I knew she was smart, but she's this smart?

My gosh, in middle school? Gosh, my son is nothing compared to her.

I'll take this case.

You should manage your own problem first.

What about the president?

She wrote that herself, so compare those two.

Prof. Seo's paper.

What?

What is this?

HAN JOON-HWI

HAN JOON-HWI INVITED KANG SOL

SETTINGS

EXIT

ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO EXIT?

HAN JOON-HWI

So you're leaving us?

-What will you do instead? -Get a tutor.

When you search for Hankuk University on the Internet,

all you get is "the Law School murderer."

Hankuk University is now equal to a murderer!

In the National Assembly,

our alumni are hanging our heads in shame!

We already put him off duty, so we'll punish him later--

Later, my ass. Dismiss him this instant!

A professor of a law school

is involved in a crime none other than murder.

He murdered him!

He hasn't been tried, so his charges aren't confirmed.

So you're going to sit here

and take the shame until then?

People are only presumed innocent on paper.

Don't you know everyone is presumed as guilty?

The fact that he's indicted means he's guilty!

Before the alumni stop donating to the school--

President, Prof. Yang Jong-hoon of the Law School wishes to see you.

I'll call him.

Don't let him resign.

He should be fired

so that he can't show up here ever again.

The Law School murderer.

How arrogant.

You won't even greet me.

Did you want to be greeted by the murderer of your closest friend?

You're right.

I never got to say one last goodbye to my closest friend.

You may have avoided detention even though you murdered somebody,

but you better not dream of sticking around at the Law School.

I will

make sure I cut your throat.

If that's why you came, you came here in vain.

I'll accept my removal according to our rules,

but nothing more than that.

I'll do whatever it takes within the scope of law

to fight and struggle.

What?

I get how you've gone crazy.

You've been indicted.

Assemblyman Ko.

When your close friend indicted you for bribery,

you asserted very confidently

indictment doesn't equal guilt, that you won't be caught in this frame.

It made me almost gag.

How long will you continue to be so sassy?

We'll see about that.

On the day he died,

why do you think I tried to get on a flight?

I've been looking for Kang Dan. I'll leave you at that.

What? Professor Yang?

Yes, okay.

BAD FAMA

What did your kids do to deserve this?

Their real names, occupations, and photos of their faces.

That's too much personal info.

Are you worried about these people?

I'm worried about you.

You got papers and studies to do.

Stop talking to me. I have to be Prof. Yang's assistant.

Prof. Kim said he's coming in for the consultation--

-I'm doing this. -What?

Prof. Yang asked me for help.

Be a good assistant.

How can the defendant summon the prosecutor in charge?

After you're indicted, you'll be in court.

We didn't have to take this to court,

so you needed a chance to drop the indictment.

First, release you, then drop this?

You're telling me to lose my face and job.

Go ahead.

There's nothing more dangerous as wasting time as a prosecutor.

"A prosecutor who wastes time brings shame to that scale."

You remembered that?

The dead victim used to say that often.

And also something you should've remembered, Prosecutor Jin.

I see. I'm guessing that you remembered.

It turns out that Prosecutor Seo wasted his time,

so I can see why you got mad with a sense of betrayal.

I need to go put all of my efforts into keeping this indictment going.

See you in court.

Right.

After you quit your job as a prosecutor,

Prosecutor Seo got completely wasted and said this.

"If I end up dying,

I'll die in the hands of Yang Jong-hoon, that jerk."

His children were about to starve to death,

but he threw a feast

at a hotel restaurant on his birthday, costing at least 100,000 won per person,

and got a luxury-brand bag for his mistress.

Eight out of ten people never receive child support.

I believe Child Support Agency exists under the MOGEF.

Even with the request,

it takes a year and a half to two years until a decision is made.

The livelihood is breaking down,

and the child…

Even when the court orders them to pay the support,

many of them don't do it.

If they don't, the worst punishment is detention.

But if they use a false address or go off the grid

for six months, they get off.

And there are numbers of them who'd rather be detained than pay up.

So did you want to punish them personally?

By putting them to shame?

That's not it.

The purpose of this website is to shame them and make them pay.

Isn't that it?

Anyone with a child would understand how I feel.

Even so, nothing will change.

All these people's information got out because they had kids.

You came here as a defendant, not a victim.

Joon-hwi.

I shouldn't have come.

Wait. You can't leave like this.

I grew up with a single mother,

so I understand how you feel.

Thank you.

I…

Don't you think you're too harsh?

She's a defendant?

She was a victim before she got accused!

She's in question for libel.

And she got sued over that, so she is the defendant.

Professor, she was desperate--

You're giving legal, not psychological advice.

Instead of getting emotional and worked up,

you're to provide a solution calmly.

Present how you'll counter this.

Me?

You made him innocent after he was sued for defamation.

Good luck.

Professor.

This is ripped up,

but is this the same sugar packet from the crime?

CODE OF LAW, CRIMINAL CODE, HANDS-ON CIVIL CASES

J2008B4 DECISION

J2008B4 DECISION

LEGAL ARTICLES: CHILD SUPPORT

IF CHILD SUPPORT IS 12 MONTHS OVERDUE…

Do you understand this concept?

Let's take a look at this explanation.

For example, even if the debtor owes 10 million won,

if the trustee is insolvent,

if they have zero funds, the actual value can be zero won.

In that case…

HAN JOON-HWI: YOU'LL REALLY GET A TUTOR?

MOM: DINNER IS READY

YOU HAVE 2 FINGERPRINT IDS

What is this?

Just a mom looking at her girl's phone.

What? Are you hiding something?

-What is this? -I can't stay home.

Go to your room.

-Your tutor will be here. -I can't stay here.

Is it that jerk, Han Joon-hwi?

You have no time to fool around with jerks like him.

Go back to your room.

I went through much trouble trying to get this tutor

who never does one-on-one lessons--

I don't need a tutor.

I wrote a paper in middle school.

What?

-You-- -I'm that good.

So why do I need help?

What's with you?

Is something wrong with you?

Go ahead and leave

if you can.

Don't spit it out.

Swallow it.

Gulp it down.

Swallow it.

You can't even swallow that.

Enough is enough.

Mom.

Whoever dies,

I'm not scared of that.

I'm going back to my dorm.

The law is there, but it's useless.

If someone doesn't want to pay child support,

there are loopholes everywhere.

Gosh, this darned rhinitis.

Hey, Joon-hwi. Go back to your room and sleep.

Whoa.

Why?

I mean, think of how the children are suffering from this.

Children are the victims of unpaid child supports.

Darn it. We should give them criminal punishment like other countries.

It was for the public's good to protect children's survival.

I need to make this argument and have it accepted.

This is justified since it's in the public interest?

That's your specialty.

But this one won't be easy.

Unlike Lee Man-ho's time, it was done on a website run by a mother

who got no child support, not a governmental institution.

Exactly. She didn't just expose her ex-husband's information.

She had a verifying process through checking decisions

to upload other people--

That means creditors can make a website

and upload information of their debtors?

-That's not right. -Why not?

Both cases want to shame people for money.

Fine. I get that you're a big shot.

This is my limit.

Hey, if we don't make her innocent,

those shameless parents who refuse to pay child support will

get confident and feel justified for their actions.

Then what about the kids? Their lives will be tormented.

I can't let that happen.

Should the big shot help?

You said it's my specialty.

That day,

I wanted Professor Seo to disappear from before my eyes.

Hye-gyeong, your daughter…

I left you for that man,

yet he failed the judicial exam and gave up,

and he became the ugly duckling in his family of judges.

So I decided

to lay my life down to turn her into a judge.

I told her to copy your paper.

-Hye-gyeong. -Don't make an issue.

If you do, her life

and my life will both end.

You don't

want me to die and disappear, do you?

Does your husband know?

How did you end up like this?

It's all my fault.

If I turned out the way she wanted me to be,

she wouldn't have been this obsessed with you.

The milk is split.

We can't put it back,

but we can wipe it away.

Nothing happened to us.

Did you lose the laptop?

What will you do with your made-up alibi?

Prof. Yang will see the police record.

Let's not do this.

-Let's turn-- -No, not that.

-I don't want my life to end here. -Sol.

You said it was your fault.

Then just do as I say.

Nothing happened to us.

I'll get a taxi.

Do you think I left Byung-ju

just to put up a photo like this in my living room?

Will one of us have to die before you stop saying that?

The public interest.

How am I going to prove she did it in the public interest?

Hey, are you back?

I'm glad you're back.

It was too empty without you.

Are you coming back to the study group too?

It's the same kind.

Where did you find it?

I found a single-serve sugar packet here,

not an ordinary packaging.

At first, the sugar packet was found on the floor.

After he used it,

the packaging was left on the table.

That sugar packet.

Who dropped it and why?

COLOR PRINTER: 100 WON

Gollum will kill us if he catches us.

He won't do it if we ask.

And why are you such a coward?

We can just copy, pay up, and leave.

-My gosh. -What was that?

Future prosecutors and judges.

You're in an empty store all alone making copies

of someone's copyrighted work to study?

I won't let that happen.

-Get lost! -Everyone else does this anyway.

Why are you the only one who won't?

I can't do it. Do you see this?

It's illegal to copy books.

But our textbooks are too expensive.

Please save the poor law students and let us copy these.

No matter how expensive it is,

you violated the Copyright Act of a Copyright Law textbook.

Must I let go of this irony?

It's not our main textbook, and we just need an excerpt.

Paying 50,000 won for that is like tyranny.

Am I the tyrant here?

If you want a portion, just copy that part.

They don't tell us what that portion is to make us buy the book.

What?

That's just completely unfair.

Go complain to your professor.

-Go complain to them! -My gosh!

-Okay? Go complain to them! -Move, move!

-Go! Go away! Go! -What's going on--

Do you have a death wish?

Jung Dae-hyeon, that jerk. Wasn't taking Yangcrates' class enough?

He pulled a cheap trick to make them buy his wife's book.

NO ILLEGAL COPYING ALLOWED!

He shouldn't take advantage of them.

He could just make copies to use in his class.

Hand it back.

I heard you'll be studying the Copyright Act in Criminal Code.

-Yes. -Okay.

Compensation is an important aspect of copyright suits,

so we'll take a look at it too.

And Prof. Jung will do his class only on that portion,

so you won't have to buy a book.

-All right! -I knew it, Prof. Kim.

She took one for the team.

She truly loves her students. Professor Kim! I love you deeply.

-I love you! -I love you!

-I love you! -I love you!

Why don't you show some true love for the Civil Code too?

Why are your grades the lowest

for the Civil Code despite my awesome lectures?

It kills my pride.

-It's hard. -It's tough.

It's not fun if it's too easy.

The best law firms will look at your Civil Code grades

before they hire you, so what now?

Now, let's make sure we do this right! Go!

-Okay! -Yes, ma'am.

What do you think of when you hear copyright infringement?

Plagiarism.

Paper plagiarism.

Paper plagiarism. That's a hot potato.

Let's say I plagiarized the paper of Kang Sol B, who's sitting here.

Is that an infringement?

If it's plagiarized, it is, right?

Plagiarism doesn't equal infringement.

A valid copyright infringement

must include grounds that are both subjective and objective.

Plagiarism is usually an ethical issue,

but it's not a copyright violation that involves punishment and compensation.

Yes, the line between plagiarism

and copyright infringement is very vague.

You have perfect examples of copyright infringement before you.

They got at least one illegal textbook copy.

You're giving a lecture before criminals who have infringed copyright.

And of course, I've never done that.

She always does that.

Right, what about the Bad FaMa case?

The opinion is under way.

Make sure you do a good job and win.

I'm not doing it.

Then who? Sol A?

It's going to be tough for her.

Only someone like you has a chance.

I'm very sorry.

It's important, so I need to do better, but I can't seem to do it.

This won't work.

I'm sorry. You trusted me with this.

You don't have my trust, so try again.

What? Goodness.

I have no idea how to argue she did this

in the public interest, not for personal revenge.

It's on her personal website.

The problem is that she was already sued for libel before

by other parents who failed to pay child support

and were exposed on her website,

then she was fined.

Is that a problem?

That means

there's a high chance she'll be fined again…

Wait.

This client was already sued by many people

who refused to pay child support, not just by her husband!

It proves she didn't upload their info just for personal gain

to make him pay the money.

She also got together with informants

to go to the MOGEF to publicize this problem,

then protested before the National Assembly.

Go eat something first.

Have you eaten already?

If you buy me jjajangmyeon, I'll--

My rule is never to eat with any students.

I shouldn't have asked. That was so embarrassing.

Hey, Ye-seul. Where are you?

Why? She still won't pick up?

She's on the phone.

Is something going on with Ye-seul?

CLASS CANCELED

What? This is awesome.

That's odd. I thought Prof. Kang never cancels his classes.

All right!

CLASS CANCELED

Excuse me.

Why was it canceled?

Prof. Kang didn't come today. I think he's sick.

Right, did you get your laptop from the professor?

Yes, the security guard gave it to me.

I was told to give this to you.

Okay, thank you.

The security guard? Well, I'm glad you got it back.

He kept asking me over and over again if I'm sure it was yours.

One second.

I have something to ask you.

I already paid everything I got on credit.

Stop asking me to buy food for you.

You had to see Prof. Yang to prepare for the trial anyway.

I have to eat, so start copying.

Why should I?

Can I tell your wife about that girl you practically stalked?

Do it.

-Should I? -Do it. I'll do it. I will.

I'll do this.

You never did this saying it's illegal.

You should take down that motto.

It's not illegal.

The copyright holder asked

to give it to students for free.

The copyright holder?

You're off duty, so the books are no use.

Yes, you can't have classes. So why?

I'll use those as soon as I win the trial.

You'll use those as soon as you win?

He's telling you to do a great job on his trial.

-Did you meet him? -Who?

Yes, I did. But even if he had someone behind him, he won't speak up.

He'll talk only after his case ends as bodily harm.

The crazy man who stabbed Prof. Yang?

He's very skeptical, and he's as sly as a fox.

I pleaded in his favor. Show him,

-then tell him I'll come see him. -Okay.

He paid my fee in cash right away.

I wonder if he'll do well on Prof. Yang's pro bono case.

I came to do that. Let's get ready for the trial.

I have the arraignment and a list of prosecution evidence,

then I went to the Prosecutors' Office and copied the investigation record.

Hand it out.

What are you thinking?

PREPARATORY PROCEEDINGS

List of evidence from the prosecution.

These are real documents. So cool.

There is lots of evidence.

Is that so?

Then I'll be done for good

thanks to this evidence.

Article 318.1, Criminal Procedure Act.

"Documents or articles the prosecutor and the defendant agree on are

admissible as evidence if genuine."

The prosecutor can't use everything as evidence.

The defendant must agree.

Right.

Then Prof. Yang can disagree with everything against…

If he disagrees with everything,

are we left with zero evidence?

Why would there be no…

Well, I have no time to explain that, so…

We do. A minute and 30 seconds.

Come on.

Disapproving evidence usually denies its validity,

but what can the defendant do by denying the weapon?

Will someone say,

"This knife isn't a knife! This mace is lying"?

Then why do we do this?

Evidence admissibility is useful with papers.

Our testimonies to the prosecutor,

the medical examiner's report,

and my uncle's notes.

With those, we have a chance of making an argument saying,

"That person is lying."

Right. And now--

If we dismiss documents?

We summon the testifier

or the writer to court to have them

take the stand.

And we judge the authenticity of the said document.

Why are you getting mad at me?

Then let's decide which evidence I should approve or disapprove.

Wait, they're your key evidence.

You're asking your evidence for their opinion?

I got some investigation records.

Wait, we're showing all these to them?

He's as crazy as you.

He's off duty, so he's using his case

to hold a hands-on class.

But I'm saying they are a part of this case.

I've never seen the real record before.

This is huge. We'll need at least 100 thimbles.

Bad students always complain about their gear.

Pass your bar exam first.

NFS AUTOPSY REPORT

SEO BYUNG-JU

The autopsy report is dismissed.

The examiner went AWOL, so he can't be summoned either.

It'll be easy to dismiss.

Then isn't it good for Prof. Yang?

We have no way of summoning the examiner?

I asked the embassy and the Korean association

to look for him everywhere, but he can't be located.

Since the examiner lives abroad

and can't be located,

-so Article 314, Exception… -Article 314, Criminal Procedure Act.

"If a person who's to make a statement

is unable to do so due to death, illness, residence abroad,

or any other similar cause, the relevant report

and other documents shall be admissible as evidence."

You're right. I was happy for nothing.

Approve his handwritten memo to claim suicide.

What about testifier statements?

All of them are your testifiers!

You're right. All the suspects are here.

-You should disapprove. -If it wasn't him,

that means one of you is lying.

-You should disapprove everything. -Disapprove everything?

Then how many witnesses should I summon?

Him. And him.

Him, her, her, and him.

-They all testified. -I did too.

Exactly. There are dozens of people.

You know how it is. The trial will be too long.

-The judge won't summon all of them. -I want to be a witness.

Prof. Yang may never eat with a student, but he would never kill a man.

Please approve mine.

I don't want to take the stand.

And mine. I need that time to study.

Seung-jae and I weren't even at the scene.

If you look at my statement, I barely said anything.

All right, now. Take a good look at their statements,

talk to the prosecutor, and summon the least amount of people.

Let's disapprove his first.

Whose statement?

There's no reason to disapprove Prof. Kang Ju-man's statement.

He didn't say much,

and he seems to hate you a lot.

There's no reason to have him as a witness.

Please have him as my first witness.

Why is the vice dean the first?

He changed his alibi.

NEW MAIL

I'LL GIVE YOU THE LAPTOP, LET'S MEET

Let's call it a day.

I need to find my laptop first.

CONTACTS: DAD

The phone is turned off.

DAD

CONTACTS: MOM

-What? -Dad's phone is turned off.

Put him on the phone.

Come home if you want to talk.

Mom. Mom!

Darn it.

Dad.

Dad?

Vice Dean.

Aren't you leaving?

This is different from exposing debtors.

Unpaid child support isn't private debt,

but a dereliction of a parent's duty.

The state must take responsibility for the child's survival,

thus making this a public issue.

That day,

I brought the sugar packet.

12:25 P.M., OCTOBER 5, 2020, THE DAY OF THE INCIDENT

Vice Dean.

It's your first class in the mock court.

How do you feel?

Right. Yes.

-Would you like some coffee? -You stay. I'll make mine.

I have a sweet tooth.

If this is about her paper,

I don't think I'll let this slide.

You should've stopped the wrong decision

your wife and daughter made.

Your daughter copied my paper,

won an award in a contest,

then used it to get into the Law School.

Just as Prof. Yang said, I do not think we should condone any illegal acts

in the admission process of the Law School.

Just as Prof. Yang said,

you bribed the school, called it a donation, then got to teach.

I don't think that's something for you to say.

My daughter just did as her mother said.

I can see why Hye-gyeong regretted marrying you.

Even if she made her do it, your daughter could've stopped.

Vice Dean, as a renowned legal scholar,

you know this much better than I do.

Your daughter doesn't qualify to become a judicial officer.

YANG JONG-HOON

Professor Yang. I meant to call you, but I forgot.

Yes, give me a second.

I killed him.

Professor Seo Byung-ju.

You finally…

found me.

It was all me.

Can you prove it?

Do you also think I'm a joke?

Why did you two meet up?

Tell him you couldn't tell to hide our relationship.

You can do that, right?

You can't do this to me.

It's all your fault!

Everyone has a thing that triggers their trauma.

I want to speak with you.

Ye-seul's boyfriend.

-Get in! -I really don't like him.

I'm the one who's shocked.

I had to come as my girl got scared.

Your boyfriend looks somewhat dangerous.

I'm worried.

So Professor Kang is your father?

Attend my trial tomorrow.

Your dad's not at school.

Your dad will do something crazy.
