ONE DOLLAR LAWYER

So, you're saying,
you went this way like this.

You pushed it to the side.

- Yes, since they're expensive cars.
- Are you kidding me?

Hey, how can the car get scratched
if you push it like that?

Go straight.

He went straight, okay?

Straight?

Get it?

- So, go straight? Go straight.
- Mm.

Yes.

Are you finally getting what I'm saying?

Mm, straight towards the car.

Got it.

Hey, go faster.

Faster towards the car.

- Yes, you should go faster.
- Faster.

Faster, faster, faster.

You... crazy scumbag!

- You crazy scumbag.
- Look.

Your bumper got wrecked.

Why did you tell me to go faster?

You total wacko!

- Hey, wait.
- What?

The spot where Gunwoo's grandpa scratched
has completely disappeared.

Are you kidding me?

What are you going to do about my car?

Today is your funeral. You're dead!

Wait.

What?

From now, this is a new case,

so it has nothing to do
with Gunwoo or his grandfather.

You may speak to my lawyer from now on.

Didn't you say that you're a lawyer?

I am a lawyer,

but I'd like to leave it
to another lawyer.

If you solve this, you can work with us.

What?

Mr. Cheon.

Wait, Mr. Cheon.

Wait.

Excuse me!

Hey, jerk!

Jerk?

You can't leave like this.

Why? You can't handle it?

It's not about whether I can or can't.

What do you want us to do with this mess?

- Never mind if you can't handle it.
- Wait.

Will you work with us or not?

I will.

Okay, I appreciate it.

Good luck.

I will give you exactly five days.

If you can't resolve this in five days,

you're all dead.

Okay?

Yes. I understand,
Executive Director Cheon Yeongbae.

Ms. Baek.

Hot chocolate.

It's very hot. Here, use this.

Oh.

Thank you.

Do you have any idea
how we can resolve this?

We will have to try something.

Sure. I will help you.

If we put our heads together,
we should be able to find a way.

There are ways.

We could have checked if the paint
on the scratched part is on the wagon.

That's right.

The car could have been scratched
from somewhere else.

That's right.

Had we checked for that,
we could have resolved it much easier.

That's right.

Thud! Crash!

You crazy scumbag!

Thud! Crash! Why, that lunatic.

Why did Mr. Cheon crash
the wagon into the car?

A temper? A lawyer shouldn't get
so worked up like that.

Do a good job of it.

If you solve this, you can work with us.

Mr. Sa. Is everything for 1,000 won here?

Yes, it's all 1,000 won here.

That's why people call Mr. Cheon,
"One Dollar Lawyer."

- One Dollar Lawyer?
- Yes.

Because his legal fee is only 1,000 won.

Does it make sense to only get paid
1,000 won for legal fees?

No, it doesn't make sense.

But what are you going to do?
Mr. Cheon decided on it.

Why? Is there a particular reason for it?

You know what?

I think it was because of me.

Oh, then does that mean...

That's correct.

I was Mr. Cheon's first client.

Aah.

If you want to know more,
ask Mr. Cheon later.

Mm.

Where is he?
He made such a mess of things.

CHIEF COUNSEL, CHEON JIHUN

Seventeen.

Seventeen?

Okay.

If I win, you promised to take my case.

Don't worry about the trial,
and focus on your game.

I asked you many times to visit me,
but you never did.

I wonder why you're here all of a sudden?

Well, I have my reasons.

It looks like I won this round.

You better keep your promise.

Chairman. Stop talking
and keep playing, please.

Thirty...

seven...

is wrong, it's 38.

No? You don't have it.

I knew it.

Thirty-eight, bingo.

What, already?

Are you using a dirty trick?

What do you mean, a dirty trick?
That's a bit harsh.

Look at this.

Chairman. It's me, Cheon Jihun.
Attorney Cheon Jihun.

I want to play one more round.

Sure.

Oh, no, look at the time.

Goodness, I'm sorry.
I will come back next time.

Do you have to go already?

I will come back when you move
from the detention center to prison.

Watch what you say.
Why don't you curse me?

My lawyers are useless.
They just take my money.

You really don't want to take my case?

No. I told you I'll take the case
if you beat me at Bingo.

So, practice your bingo game.

Is bingo that hard?

Why are you... so bad at bingo?

He's at a part-time job having
"an audience with the emperor?"

Isn't that getting paid for visiting
and spending time with someone in jail?

That's how we can pay rent.

And he was acting so virtuous.

What else does he do?

This and that.

I charge from the time I leave my office
to the time I get back to my office.

You know that, don't you?

Of course.

It took two hours to commute.

I spent two hours with the client.

My fees are one million won per hour,
so that's four million won.

At 10,000 won per game, with 10 wins,
that's another 100,000 won.

So, it will be 4,100,000 won.

Mm.

Oddly enough,
I don't want to take this money.

The chairman strongly wishes
that you take his case this time.

He will pay
for all the legal fees you ask.

Right.

The way to beat the case is...

Yes, what should we do?

Nothing.

He shouldn't have committed crimes
in the first place.

What?

ONE DOLLAR LAWYER

Wait a little while, babies.

Ms. Baek.

I will go buy some fish food.

Oh, okay. See you later.

CHAMYEONG GROUP CHEON YEONGBAE

PEOPLE WHO SPREAD
THE CULTURE OF NOBLESSE OBLIGE

People like this always do
a lot of charity work.

Mr. Seo?

Executive Director Cheon Yeongbae?
Yes, I know him well.

We worked with him.

His file?

Sure,

I'll keep it a secret from your grandpa.

Okay.

Hey. Was that Mari?

Yes. She wanted
the file on Executive Director Cheon.

What would that small law office
have to do with him?

I thought it was a secret.

I don't keep anything from you.

It doesn't sound like anything good.

Should we help her?

No. Then I sent her there for no reason.

She will do fine on her own.

Okay.

One moment.

Dad, your son
will be arriving soon.

Minhyeok is on his way to say hello.

Minhyeok is back?

Yes. He arrived the day before.

He wanted to see you as soon as possible.

I can tell him to leave if you're busy.

There's no need to do that.

It will be nice to see his face
after such a while.

Geez. What are you doing?

What am I doing?
I'm training a probationary employee.

Read it quickly and give it back.

Mmm...

Bad character, bad personality...

is what it says here.

Bad, bad...

What a piece of trash.

I did well by crashing his car, yes.

I am such a good judge of character.

So, were you able to come up with a plan?

No.

I'm still thinking about it.

Thinking?

You're still working it out in your head?

Let me know when you're done thinking.

I'm the lawyer training
a probationary employee.

Yes.

Here you go.

I can see you.

So, what?

I have no nothing to say.

So, did you enjoy your time in New York?

Yes. I learned so much, thanks to you.

What is there to thank me?

You went on your own merit.

Not at all.

It was all thanks to you, Mr. Baek.

It's the heart that matters. The heart.

Because of your moral support,

Minhyeok was able to finish
his training without a hitch.

That's right. I was able to do well
because of your care and attention.

Thanks to you, Mr. Baek.

Fine, I will take the credit then.

You must be so proud of Minhyeok.

Yes, I am.

I don't say this because he's my son,

but whoever marries him
will be a lucky girl.

Dad, I'm not ready to get married yet.

I told you work is more important to me.

I will...

work for an even loftier purpose
at the Prosecutor's Office.

This is what worries me about him.

I hope he meets a good woman
so that he changes his mind.

There's nothing wrong with it.

Now is the time
to devote yourself to work.

What?

Gosh. But I would marry him off
as soon as he found anyone he liked.

My Mari...

should find someone soon. I'm worried.

You don't need to worry about that!

What?

Mari is very capable
of taking care of herself.

Where is she anyway?

Mari is my granddaughter
so she needs to come on her own merits.

I sent her somewhere.

Where?

HUMAN RIGHTS

One bingo, one side.

What is it? What are you looking at?

I'm working.

Two bingo, one side.

Good, let's start with the outline
of the incident.

The incident occurred
when the security guard Kim Manbok

scratched the car of Cheon Yeongbae,
a resident of Pungjin Taeeun Apartments.

Nope, that's not it.

It's not clear
whether it was scratched or not.

So, how can you be sure?

That's exactly what I'm saying.

Whether it was scratched or not
couldn't be determined,

thanks to a certain Mr. Cheon so-and-so

who crashed a wagon into the car
in front of everyone.

Yes! That's what I'm talking about.

Those facts are crystal clear.

This is a great case
for a probationary employee.

A clear-cut case, I like it.

So, you crashed it for me?

Sure. It is a test to see
if you are qualified to join my practice.

I crashed it on purpose.
Aren't you grateful?

Let's say I am.

First proposal,

we pay five million won
to get the car fixed right away.

Well, if I was going to pay out of pocket,

I wouldn't have hired you as my lawyer.
Don't you think so?

And I don't have that kind of money.

- A lawyer doesn't have five million?
- I don't even have 500,000.

- Are you proud of that?
- I am. I have righteousness and integrity.

- That's so immature.
- Is it?

Why are you being so immature?

Mari is trying to find a solution.

Be quiet, and let's listen to her.

Please continue.

Second proposal,

if it can't be resolved with money,

he will be criminally prosecuted.

If Mr. Cheon so-and-so doesn't pay up,
he should serve time.

I wish I could, but I can't.

Why not? If you don't have money,
you should pay with your time.

If I go to prison,
where would you get your training?

Besides, a first-time offender
usually doesn't serve any time.

Third,

We should give a heartfelt prayer
for someone even crazier to hit his car.

- That looks like her.
- It's the eyes that look alike.

That was funny.

Nice try.

I told you to find solutions,

but all I see is animosity
towards the mentoring lawyer.

Mari, this is disappointing.
Don't you have anything else?

Well then,

I do have the last suggestion.

Can I expect your last suggestion
to be any better?

Your earlier ones were not good.

Of course.

I think you'll like it very much.

What is it? What could be so good?

Why is she coming closer?

Why is she putting her face
so close to mine?

Don't you know we still need
to socially distance ourselves?

I will give you your 1,000 won back.

Damn. That felt good.

Giving it back? What about your training?

There are other law offices.
I'll take care of myself.

You should worry about yourself.

I don't think Cheon Yeongbae will go easy.

Mr. Sa, let's get together
for soju some time.

Without the righteous Mr. Cheon so-and-so.

Mr. Cheon so-and-so will be busy
working on this case.

- Farewell.
- Goodbye.

Wait, that's not right.

Come on, Mr. Cheon. Mari!

Don't you want to be
a probationary employee?

Hey...

Have a yogurt drink, Mari.

Cheers.

HOMERUN MART

As you said,
this doesn't make sense to anyone.

I don't think it was
something I could resolve.

Moreover, I don't think
it's the right place for me.

Of course, there are many law offices
that are bigger and better.

But I wonder if other offices
have as much work as we do.

I heard lawyers want to see
as many cases as they can.

That's true.

Although it looks like
Mr. Cheon acts recklessly,

oddly, there wasn't a single case
he couldn't resolve so far.

So, do you think
he can resolve this case too?

Sometimes it's hard to stand him,
but he probably will.

Gosh. I really can't stand him.

Still, he went too far
by crashing into the car.

I... once asked him

why he takes things so far.

We have the right
to work without dying.

Recruit more safety personnel!

- Recruit more!
- Recruit more!

We have the right to work without dying!

Recruit more safety personnel!

- Recruit more!
- Recruit more!

- Recruit more!
- Recruit more!

Mr. Cheon!

- Are you okay?
- Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

Why are you doing this?

You are my client.

- Blood.
- What?

- Blood.
- What?

Blood.

Blood?

You bastards!

- You bastards!
- Don't do this!

- Let me go! You're all dead.
- Don't do this!

Recruit more safety personnel!

Mr. Cheon says that

a lawyer fights in their client's stead.

I don't understand
why a lawyer should go that far.

I don't understand him either,

but I think that's who he is.

So, I just decided to accept it.

"Mr. Cheon, do as you want."

"Live however you want."

I'm not doing a good job convincing you.

Anyway, please give it more thought.

I'm sure there is a way.

I can't promise you anything. I'm sorry.

Thanks for the drink. I'm off.

Ms. Baek, you know how I feel, right?

I'm not a probationary employee yet.

To me, you already are.

Ms. Baek, I love you!

That's good.

Grandpa.

Look, my Mari is here.

Was it hard?

Of course, it was, thanks to you.

I'm sure you're hungry. Grab a seat.

Ah.

So, how is the training going?

- I just quit.
- What?

He said he'll accept me
if I pass the test.

So, I just called it quits.

What kind of test was it?

I can't explain it.

Even you couldn't have solved it, Grandpa.

Is that so?

That's really...

Why are you laughing?

I think I sent you to the right place.

Not the right place,
but a really strange place.

You should have seen it, Grandpa.

Mari.

Uh...

I hear he thinks

differently from people like us.

To him, one plus one
isn't necessarily two.

Who told you that?

Who? From a friend.

That is probably
why you thought he was strange.

You saw him during the trial.

Think about how he beat you.

I am sure...

you can learn from him.

I don't have anything.

Nothing?

Then you crashed into the car
without any plans?

I thought Ms. Baek could take care of it.
But she quit without doing that.

Are you kidding me?

You gave Mari something
even you can't resolve?

I can resolve it because
I will get an idea if I think about it.

Yeah? What is it?

Mm...

Shall we...

wait until Mari comes back?

See what happens
if Mari doesn't come back.

If she doesn't, I won't come back either!

See you tomorrow.

Okay.

She will be back.

Of course, you did.

Things are moving faster than I expected.

Oh, my eyes!

A diamond!

♪ Bravely slidin' ♪

Yes, customer?

- I was waving to her.
- I see.

Over here.

Minhyeok, you haven't changed a bit.

I think it's been two years.

It's because my love for you
hasn't changed.

Be mine. I want you.

Minhyeok.

You said I look the same? Do I?

How did you know I was back?

Grandpa told me.

I figured you were busy
so I was going to call you later.

- Minhyeok.
- Yes?

Did you know Prosecutor Cheon Jihun?

Jihun? Do you mean that Jihun?

Yes. Didn't you work with him?

Why do you bring that jerk up?

- That jerk?
- We were close.

I haven't seen him
since he left the Prosecutors' Office.

Did he cause trouble again?

Was he a troublemaker too then?

Don't even start.
Be careful, don't get involved.

Grandpa wants me to get trained there.

Oh, my god.

He's totally trash.

- What?
- You will struggle if you go there.

Hold on, let me find you another place.

That's okay.

It's not okay with me.
You'll have a hard time.

It's really okay. I'm fine.
I will take care of myself.

I have a promise to keep.

Is that right?
Then tell me if you need anything.

I will. I should get going.

Okay, be on your way.

What? Wait a minute.

Mari, we've seen each other in two years.

Don't you have any questions for me?

Not really.

I guess it's because
we talked to each other regularly.

- Right. I'll call you.
- Sure, any time.

Bye.

Shoot.

This person I know said...

- What is it?
- Geez! You shocked me.

- Why?
- It's Ms. Cho.

There's that...

See what I mean?

She keeps coming
because the office is clean.

Why'd she have to clean up?

Is she here for the rent?

Hey. You did that part-time visitor job.

Give it up.

Yeongsuk, don't just stand there.
Have a seat.

Eulrye. I'm standing
because my back hurts.

Something feels different.

I know, you can't hide your age.

I thought you were
only a few years older than me.

Really? Oh, my.

You're back.

Mr. Cheon, you here?

Hello, Ms. Cho.

I tried to come up
with some money this time.

But that money smelled so foul.

I understand. You're saying
you don't have the rent, right?

Something got you in a good mood?

Probationary employee, was it?
You sure hired a good one.

I'm giving you more time
because of this young lady.

Where did you find a probationary worker
so sweet and pretty?

Let's go back to work.

Let's go.

You have to pay by next month.

- Yes.
- Thanks for the tea.

I'll be back.

Yes. Come back again.

Take care.

Why is she in such a good mood?

Ms. Baek must've been so nice
that Ms. Cho can't stop smiling like that.

I thought you weren't coming back.
Why are you here?

Because of Mr. Sa.

I'm glad you're back.

Oh.

Here you go.

Take it.

I'm in your care.

Excuse me.

Is this the law office
of Attorney Cheon Jihun?

Yes, it is. How can we help you?

Mr. Kim Taegon.

Let me...

Mari, you need to step aside.

You're not hired yet.

Nice to meet you, I'm Cheon Jihun.

So,

there is a person I work for.

Here's a glass of water.

Consider all of us on your side
and speak freely.

I work as a driver.

CHILDREN SAFETY ZONE

He has such a temper.

He throws water bottles at me
if I drive slowly even a bit.

He gets worked up if he's not happy.

He walks all over me every day.

I try my best to do well.

But when something goes wrong
at the office,

he will find any reason
to take it out on me.

There are so many instances,

but the hardest thing to cope is

the way he threatens me...

to keep me out of work.

Throwing a bottle at you
is clear-cut battery.

If he threw it at the back of your head
while you were driving,

we can charge him with special violence.

It is subject to criminal punishment
even if the victim settles.

Were you hurt anywhere?

Oh, this is nothing.

Either way, let's get a doctor's note.

It is best to have as much ammo as we can.

If this is true,
I think we can proceed with a lawsuit.

But we shouldn't rush into a lawsuit.

It's clear that he was victimized.
Of course, we have to sue him.

But the most that can come out of a suit
will be a fine or probation.

That won't even phase that kind of person.
Hmm.

And that will put Mr. Kim Taegon
in a tough position.

I agree. A lawsuit will be rather...

Mr. Kim Taegon, how can we help you?

You don't want to be treated badly,

but you want to keep working. Am I right?

Yes. That would be ideal.

But...

would it be possible?

It is. That is our specialty.

Mr. Cheon is an expert
on these sorts of issues.

The law is far but the fist is near!

You make a fist to cheer like this,
and say "Let's go!"

to psyche ourselves up to work hard.

That's what he meant. Hmm.

- Let's go.
- Yes.

What is this?

I wrote some things down before I came.

Is that right?
Please review the facts of the damages.

Okay.

Should we write up
an engagement letter first?

Just a moment.

Stop! Stop!

One moment.

May I speak to you, Mr. Cheon?

- What is it?
- Just for a moment.

- Why?
- Come here for a second.

What is it? Why? What?

- We can't take this case.
- What do you mean?

It's the same guy.

CHAMYEONG GROUP EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
CHEON YEONGBAE

You freaking bastard!

Drive properly, stupid bastard.
You goddamn asshole.

Children's safety zone?

I'm more important than the children.

Hey, work at a daycare
if you care so much.

Uh-oh.

Sorry.

How annoying. I can't stand this guy.

Why?

He has the same last name as me.

Come on.

What do we do?

- About what?
- If you take this case,

what are you going to do about the car?

What do you mean?

Cheon Yeongbae won't take it quietly.

Is that a problem?

We'll resolve the car incident first,
and then work on Mr. Kim Taegon's case.

So, you need to take care
of your case first.

I will wait for you.

I can't believe this.

What other mentor is so accommodating?

KIM TAEGON
LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE: ATTORNEY CHEON JIHUN

Is that it?

Yes, that's it.
Thank you for entrusting us.

The gratitude is mine.

Other law offices turned me down.

Did you write all of this?

Yes. I looked things up online.

You are better than most lawyers.

Don't worry too much. We will do our best.

Thank you.

INSULTS, THREATS

VERBAL ABUSE AND ASSAULT

HABITUAL BATTERY

Attended a club event...

What a busy guy.
He did all kinds of things.

Hmm.

Mr. Cheon!

Do you have to do that much?

Do you know how notorious that guy is?

Even if he's upset
about the littlest thing,

he will swear up a storm and beat you.

But I heard he is lenient
with his school alumnae.

What's wrong with a lawyer
taking advantage of school ties?

So, what?

The first thing we do
at our legal department

is figure out school ties,
personal ties, and family ties.

But I don't think this is right.

Don't be silly. Repeat after me.

Okay.

Mr. Cheon!

Shake them like tambourines. Cue.

Mr... I can't.

I can't do this.

I have to go.

Good luck.

Tambourines.

Hey, wait...

Thanks, anyway!

Mr. Cheon!

I will get over with
this stupid probationary period

and go back to Baek.

Mr. Ch... Mr. Cheon.

Mr. Cheon, you have a guest.

What brings you here all of a sudden?

All right then.

Tell me what you are prepared to offer.

Oh, yes.

So it's...

- M...
- What?

You know I'm a rich man.

M... What? Do you want a man? Me?

No, it's not that.

If that's not it, what do you want?

So...

- M...
- Excuse me,

you need an appointment.

Mr. Cheon Yeongbae!

I came because I just couldn't take it
anymore even thinking about it.

Hey.

Are you out of your mind?

Yes, I am.

It's so infuriating

that my probationary employee
had to come in person.

Isn't that right, Mari?
Are you very angry?

- I...
- How moving.

Okay, I got it.

The reason you came

was so that the two of you could mock me?

Mock you? I was just...

Stand back, Mari.

What are you talking about?

- So I was just...
- Stand back, Mari.

This is between men.

Why are you doing this?

In the first place!

Had you not falsely accused
Mr. Kim Manbok for scratching your car,

I wouldn't have to come all the way here.
Isn't that right, Mari?

What?

I see. Okay.

That old man didn't scratch my car.

I thought about it long and hard.

I think I mistook a scratch
from some other place.

What?

You were mistaken?

Whether it was a mistake or not,
I wonder if there is proof.

When I raised my voice a little,

that old man seemed to agree with me.

You're right.

There is no proof.

But you shouldn't do this.

But what are you gonna do?

Everyone saw you
crash the wagon into my car.

What should I do about...

I'm sorry.

Damn! That's right.

Sorry, I forgot.

You told me to talk to your lawyer.

So tell me, how will you resolve this?

Well...

- So...
- So, tell me.

What are you going to do?

Yes, M...

- M...
- Tell me.

Tell me what you're going to do.

Mr...

Forget that we went to the same school!

You're an embarrassment to our alma mater!

This whole mess is your fault
for falsely accusing someone

for scratching your car, man!

- Damn it!
- What the heck?

What is she saying?
We went to the same school?

How dare you talk to me like that?

- Hey!
- She is... Yes?

- You two, get ready to be sued.
- Yeah.

You need to be sued.

Mr. Cheon Yeongbae,

go ahead and sue us.

You'll find out how amazing...

my lawyer is.

Mari, wait a minute.

Even if you were mad,
you totally lost your cool.

I don't care. Why are you here?

Why do you think?
Because of the same reason as you...

Mari.

What was the reason you were here for?

Mr. Cheon says that

a lawyer fights in their client's stead.

It's okay. Tell me if you can't.

I can do it instead.

I can fight too. I'll do it.

All right, Gunwoo.

Let's eat.

Here.

Isn't he a bad guy?

He's giving you a hard time.

Yes.

He's a bad guy.

You're here.

Mari.

Wait.

I wanted to give you this.

Excuse me?

I don't feel comfortable.

If I had paid for the damages,
things wouldn't have gone this far.

I got the money from here and there.

It's not enough,
but resolve it with this money.

Mari. This is from me.

This is more than enough.

All of the security guards hate him.

We ended up paying him
a hefty sum as well.

Nobody wants to work here.

That's why an old man like me
can work here.

So in some ways, I work here
thanks to that person.

But you have to put up with so much.

Goodness. It's not easy to make money.

That much trouble is expected.

I liked working here.

There are nice residents here
and I grew attached to them.

Grandpa!

Hey, Gunwoo!

Mari!

Don't you like lollipops?

It's not that I don't like them, but...

Here you go.

Is this candy too?

It's something I like. Try it.

Why is it so expensive?

You need to taste nice things
so you get the drive to succeed.

And be good to your grandpa.

I'm only seven years old.

There's no age limit to success.

- You got that?
- Okay.

But with this money, Grandpa, Grandma,
and I can have tons of pork belly.

Here. It's beef.

Have it with your grandparents.

What do I tell Grandma?

Tell her it's from the lawyer lady.

Tell her not to worry and cheer up.

Thank you.

Go home.

Mari.

Okay.

I'm losing it.

You're training at Jihun's office?

- Yes.
- Why?

Maybe I shouldn't ask why.

Either way, it's not a bad idea.

It will be good to learn from Jihun.

I don't know about that.

Was he that reckless as a prosecutor too?

Did he cause trouble again?

It's the same.

- You ask that too.
- What's the same?

Minhyeok asked if he caused trouble too.

There are too many stories
about Jihun as a prosecutor.

I'll tell you later.
There are some fun stories.

So, what did he do this time?

So...

What? He crashed into a car?

Wow, that's so like Jihun.

Do you think I can resolve it?

Take care of the car damages,

let Gunwoo's grandfather keep his job,

and stop the guy harassing him.
Isn't it all you have to do?

That sounds fun.

- Yejin.
- What?

Okay, fine.

Let's say I somehow
take care of the car damages.

But how can he change overnight?
He lived like that all his life.

Make a new man out of him then.

- What?
- It's simple.

The Cheon Yeongbae Reform Project.

Baek Mari.

Don't think too hard about it.
It only complicates things.

A reform project?

ATTORNEY CHEON JIHUN WHERE ARE YOU

Why did you call me?

You're here.

Have you come up with a solution?

I'm still thinking.

Is that why you called me?

Mr. Sa told me

that there wasn't a single case
you weren't able to resolve.

You can resolve this case too, right?

Yes. But I'm getting tired of the praise.

I'm being serious.

Mari, there are many ways

to resolve a case.

Some people will try to cover it up

with a simple apology.

Some people will try to deal with it
only using the law.

But the people don't come to us
to learn about the law.

They come because they need help.

Instead of thinking
that a lawyer must use the law,

I want you to think

about the most ideal way
that you are comfortable with.

That's my homework for you.

Shoot.

Phew.

Did you understand what I meant?

Yes.

OFFICE OF LAW, 2F

See you tomorrow.

Oh, you're here.

Mari, you're here early.

Good morning.

I had an idea.

An idea?

Did you find the solution?

Hmm. Probably.

But I'm not sure if it's the right way.

Mr. Sa, can you help me?

Me?

Chairman, why do you like bingo so much?

I don't play it because I like it.

You said you'd take my case if I beat you.

I told you to live an honest life
to begin with.

I will from now on.

Really?

Yes. Watch me.

Seventeen.

Today is D-Day.

They're both dead.

What are they doing here?
Did something happen?

Mr. Cheon Yeongbae!

Someone gave the station a tip.

A tip?

- How could you do it?
- Is it true?

- These jerks...
- Can you comment on it?

- A comment, please.
- Is it true?

- Is it true?
- Did you really do it?

How dare you stab me in the back?

I was so worried
about the repair cost.

But the car owner said
he parked in the wrong spot,

and apologized to me.

- I was shocked at how nice he was.
- Is that about me?

Our society is still
a good place to live...

What are you here for again?

The weather is so nice.

In recent days, we keep hearing about
the residents abusing security guards.

How did you come up with the idea?

Shoot.

"Noblesse Oblige."

That is my motto.

My late father was the same.

A damaged car is not a big deal...

Good job, Ms. Baek.

You did your best.

Let's leave the rest to Mr. Cheon.

- I hope I did the right thing.
- Of course, you did.

What is Mr. Cheon Yeongbae like?

Well, he is...

Mari!

And he is...

Take this.

Oh, this is good.

HOT ON SOCIAL MEDIA,
FEEL-GOOD STORY WITH CHEON YEONGBAE

This isn't bad at all.

That's right, "Noblesse Oblige."

This is great.

I VIEW THE CHAMYEONG GROUP DIFFERENTLY NOW

Let's see.

Do I have to be good from now on? Hmm?

No way. Why should I?

Wait.

THE CHAIRMAN'S TRIAL

Secretary Yoon!

Yes, sir?

Hey.

Why didn't you tell me
today was the chairman's trial?

He didn't want anyone to come
because it didn't look good.

Damn it! You still should have told me!

Geez. I'm freaking out.

What happened at the trial?

What are your plans from now on?

Hurry up! Go faster!

Step on it, moron!

Chairman, I'm sorry I'm late.

You must have suffered.

You haven't forgotten Cheon Yeongbae.

How can I forget you?
We have such a special history.

But... your voice is...

Why you jerk...

What are you doing here? Huh?

Hey.

He's my lawyer.

Law... Lawyer?

The chairman said not to come,
but you are here.

You are such a loyal employee. Hmm.

Shall we go together?

Together? Where to?

Chairman Mo Taeyong of Chamyeong Group
was accused of causing the death

of a worker by neglecting safety measures.

His sentence was commuted to probation
at the second trial today.

The judge told Chairman Mo to spend
the rest of his life being merciful

towards the socially disadvantaged.

Good job. Mr. Cheon is the best.

It wasn't that hard.

If you do it one more time,
I will take you down.

Be a good person, old man.

Old man?

Do you know how much I lost
because of this?

Driver, do a U-turn.
We have to turn the car around.

I don't think he gets it.

No, no. I get it.

It's not like I can take that money
to my grave with me.

You're right.
That's a good way to think about it.

So... how do you two know each other?

Why are you so polite all of a sudden?

You used to call me a bastard.

When did I do that?

What are you saying?

Do you two know each other?

- Well...
- Yes. We know each other well.

How?

Mm.

Executive Director Cheon, why don't you
tell him how we know each other?

Yes, well...

So, one day,

What can I say,
it was kind of beautiful...

Hey, are you joking?

What are you doing? Let go of me!

We did away with formalities.

You wacko.

Don't mess with me, damn it!

You crazy scumbag!

We truly care about each other.

What else? Keep going.

Yes. we have an ideal relationship
as business partners and friends.

Isn't that right?

That must be it. We'll see.

What would you like for lunch?

Perhaps we can order jjajangmyeon
with a side of dumplings?

Just order one.

Who are all these people?

Chairman, these are employees
of Chamyeong Construction.

Isn't this your responsibility?
What is the problem again?

There is no problem. They always do this.

I will send them away.

Those morons. Damn it.

Hold on, Chairman.

Wait a minute.

You people!

Where do you think this is?

Welcome.

Chairman, these are my clients.

What are you doing?

We are about to sue you.

What? Who's suing me now?

I compensated for the last incident
just as you told me to.

You did these people wrong again.

When did I do that?

Technically speaking,
you didn't do it personally.

But one of your deputies,

Executive Director Cheon Yeongbae did.

You jerk...

- What happened was...
- Shut up. Be quiet.

What have you done while I was gone?

I'm sorry.

Mr. Cheon, what do you want?

A sincere apology, a just compensation,

and preventative measures
to ensure it doesn't happen again.

Do I have to pay
for something I didn't do?

Yes. I completely understand.

This is not something you did personally.

It may feel unfair to you
to meet all of their demands.

So, I will propose something.

What is the proposal?

How about a game of bingo?

What?

Bingo?

If I lose,

we will withdraw
all of our demands and leave.

But if I win,

you must meet all of their demands
and at the same time,

we demand
Executive Director Cheon Yeongbae...

to leave the company.

You basta...

That sounds good.

Let's play.

- Get it ready
- MAN: Yes, sir.

You're crazy. Are you crazy?

- Why?
- Bingo? Does that make any sense?

You said he fights in his client's stead.

You said that was
this lawyer's philosophy.

Fighting for the client is my philosophy.
That is correct.

What does that philosophy
have anything to do with bingo?

Mari,

what will happen if we take
all of these cases to court?

You have to decide carefully
whether it's a civil or a criminal case.

Then fight it out.

We may eventually win if we fight.

But when exactly is that?

What?

They will change lawyers
and make excuses to go to second trial,

wasting a few months.

What will these people be doing
in the meantime?

They will be working at this company.

Under who?

Under Executive Director Cheon Yeongbae.

Mm.

But what if you lose the game?

Why would you leave
something this important to luck?

If I am a good judge of character,
it won't be just luck.

"The Skills of Bingo."

Let's do this!

Let's do this!

That's right, let's do this.

Chairman, you shouldn't fall
for his wicked tongue.

I know.

So, ignore him...

So,

if you didn't screw up,
we wouldn't be here at all.

Am I wrong?

I'm sorry.

Attorney Cheon is the one
who sent me to jail.

- What?
- He was the prosecutor then.

He was relentless.

I have no confidence
to win against him in court.

We are doing this because you messed up.

You can win, can't you?

Yes.

I am Cheon Yeongbae.

Cheon for sky, Yeong for clear
Bae for multiples.

I will do my name proud and beat him.

If you can't avoid it, enjoy it!

Time for Bingo of Fate!

The blue poodle will be
Attorney Cheon Jihun.

The red bulldog will be
Executive Director Cheon Yeongbae.

Place the numbers between 1 and 25
randomly in each square.

You can interfere with the other
from getting bingo with your numbers.

You win by checking off
the numbers in a row first.

We will play only one round.

Mr. Cheon Yeongbae, select a person
who will call your numbers.

Yes! My most esteemed chairman,

I ask you.

Okay, Chairman Mo.

Mr. Cheon Jihun, select your caller.

As for me,

I will select Attorney Baek Mari.

What? Me?

Yes, you.

May the two of you please come forward.

The number callers can't see
the numbers on the board,

and will call out random numbers
between 1 and 25.

The time for Bingo of Fate starts now!

Eleven.

Four.

Twenty-five.

Nineteen.

Twelve.

Ten.

Twenty-one.

Five.

Nine.

- Thirteen.
- One.

- Twenty-four.
- Fourteen.

Sixteen.

Seven...

teen!

Seventeen! Yes, seventeen.

He got one! Great!

Did you see? One more and you're all dead.

Mr. Cheon Yeongbae,
allow me to say something.

An executive director is one
who takes responsibilities,

not someone who torments
those who work under him.

Using your position
as an executive director

to bully your subordinates

is clearly against the law.

Isn't that right, Mari?

Hmm?

What?

What?

Article 76, Section 2
of the Labor Standards Act.

"Employers or workers must not use"

their superior position or relationship

to inflict physical or mental pain
on other workers

or to aggravate the working environment

"beyond the proper scope for work."

Between seven, six, and two,
which one is it?

What are you waiting for? Call the number!

Seven, six, two...

Two?

He blocked it.

That's good.

- Six.
- Darn.

Chairman.

Six.

Also, without reason,

you threatened to fire them.

This is clearly illegal.

Isn't it, Mari?

Article 23 of the Labor
Standards Act. Proposal of dismissal, etc.

Absolutely. 23.

Fifteen.

That's it!

That was a good call, Chairman.

We will overturn this.

We're almost there. We're still alive.

Not this one.

Because of the legal professional's
ethics and conscience,

I can't get past this, Mr. Cheon Yeongbae.

Would you like to borrow it?

You may need it.

I think you need it more than I do.

Page 108.

In the name of the legal professional's
ethics and conscience,

I will punish you.

Eight.

Bingo!

You're finished.

Cheon Yeongbae.

You're fired.

- Thank you.
- Good work.

- Cheers!
- Cheers!

Mr. Cheon, I had complete trust in you.

How did you come up with it?
You're amazing.

Don't say I'm amazing.
That's just who I am.

What would you have done
if I couldn't remember the legal clauses?

You would've been dropped
as the probationary employee.

Let's stop
with that talk, Mr. Cheon.

You saw how Ms. Baek handled
the case of Gunwoo's grandfather.

Sure.

Mari, let me ask you directly.

How would you grade
your problem-solving methods?

Well...

- Seventy points?
- Oh.

Seventy points?

How humble of you.

It's a shame
because our cutoff line is 85.

You did not pass
by a difference of 15 points.

What do you mean, a cutoff line?

You never told me that.

But you were sensitive
to Gunwoo's feelings,

so that's five additional points.

And you still remember the legal clauses.

Another 10 points,
for a total of 85 points.

You just made it...

on the cutoff line.

Still, congratulations,
Probationary Employee Baek.

Mr. Cheon talks like this on the outside,

but he is welcoming you on the inside.

I know.

Where would Mr. Cheon find...

such a smart and pretty
probationary employee like me?

Hmm. Well, I had an idea
that you were smart.

I didn't realize you were pretty.

Let me see if you are...

You... are pretty.

What?

You are pretty, Ms. Baek.

I had no idea.

Welcome, pretty Ms. Baek.

Of course, you're pretty!

Welcome, Ms. Baek.

Mr. Cheon.

Why do you only charge 1,000 won?

Do you want to know?

Yes, I do.

Why do you want to know?

I mean, you must have a reason.

Mmm...

A reason.

A reason...

I don't know why.

What?

I don't know the reason.

I also want to know why it's 1,000 won.

What are you saying?

It was probably a dream.

A dream? What kind of dream is that?

I don't know. It's a funny kind of dream.

Mm.

You're weird. Really weird.

Your office is weird.

Mr. Cheon, you are also weird.

I'm weird for working
as a probationary employee here.

Do you know what is the weirdest?

No, I don't.

That's...

your curly hair.

Your hair is so weird.

And why do you keep
wearing those sunglasses?

That combination is so funny.

Look, it's so funny!

I can't take it. It's too funny!

Hey. My wife says
I can drink as much as I want.

Let's go to the second round.

Yes, let's go to the second round.
Let's go!

I'm canceling your training.

What? Why?

Sorry, Mr. Cheon.
Come on, let's go with us.

- Mr. Cheon, let's go.
- Come with us.

I'm sorry, okay?

Come back!

ONE DOLLAR LAWYER

I hope you can take this case.

It's a murder case.

What are you taking this case for?

He killed his parents.

The devil of the ages.

I heard you claim innocence.

Both of your parents died. Aren't you sad?

Do I have to be sad?

Cheon Jihun took this case.
I want you to be in charge.

I need to see
the crime scene in person.

Do you really believe he's alive?

They are alive
and probably hiding somewhere.

Mr. Cheon, someone is out there!
