All language subtitles for Witch at Court E10

Kwak Young-shil

died…

fourteen years ago.

Liar.

I saw with my own eyes.

She died.

Why?

When?

Where? How did my mom die?

Did you--

Did you kill her?

You shameless scumbag.

You killed my mom,
but you've been doing fine,

and now you want to save your brother?

You think I'll allow that?

Don't make me laugh.

Forget the evidence.
I'll put both you and Jo Gab-soo

behind bars.

I'll turn myself in.

What?

I was prepared to pay for killing her
when I came here.

I'll testify in court

that Jo Gab-soo ordered me to kill her.

I have evidence

of him ordering the murder 14 years ago.

I'll give it all to you.

Please

save…

my brother.

Please.

Where did you bury

my mom?

There was a fire at Senal Mental Hospital.

While escaping,

Kwak Young-shil was badly burned.

When I got there,
she was practically comatose.

I took care of her at the hospital

where she was being treated.

We usually keep unclaimed ashes

for only ten years.

This way.

If she passed away in 2003,

it was probably spread somewhere

with other ashes four years ago.

Take a look.

No.

It isn't true.

You saw it too.

Kwak Young-shil was badly burned
while saving you.

Detective Baek took her to
another hospital, and that's all I know.

How could you just let him take her?

She saved my life.

You should've reported it.

You should've told her family.

It's not like I forgot and lived in peace.

I was miserable too.

You must come clean and say what you know.

What would that change?

It's been over ten years.

Mom.

Tell me what happened to Ms. Ma back then.

Please.

What if your career is ruined
because of something from the past?

You're a prosecutor.

I'm fine with my life being ruined.

But I won't let your reputation
as a prosecutor be tainted.

That's right.

I'm a prosecutor.

That's why I can't let people who did it
to Ms. Ma's mom, get away with it.

I must uncover the truth and punish them.

-Jin-wook.
-I hope you will

change your mind before I do that.

MA I-DEUM

MA I-DEUM

MA I-DEUM
CALLING…

I asked her

about your mom.

-My mom--
-I know

my mom is no longer in this world.

So?

What did she say?

Did she say she had no other choice?

Does she want to bury

what's in the past?

Do you know what I'm most upset about?

No matter how hard I try
to be understanding, I just can't.

Let's say she really had no choice
20 years ago.

But

she met me now.

I went to ask her with my mom's picture.

But she kept her mouth shut.

How could anyone do that?

It's so brazen and abominable

that I'm speechless.

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

Don't be sorry.

You're not the one who should be sorry.

Your mom is.

Also,

sorry will never cut it.

Don't you think so?

I'll make sure to pay your mom back
for what she did to my mom

at all cost.

Will you be able to work
with me after this?

You won't, right?

You can't work with someone
who tries to get back at your mom.

Let's start with Kong Soo-ah's case.

I'll take care of it by myself.

Ms. Ma.

And I hope

I'll never see you again.

I, PROSECUTOR MA I-DEUM, REQUEST…

DEFENDANT: AHN TAE-KYOO, BAEK MIN-HO

REGARDING THE CASE ABOVE…

EVIDENCE REGARDING BAEK MIN-HO:
AQUINTANCES, WITNESS, CCTV…

EVIDENCE REGARDING AHN TAE-KYOO

Q: MIN-HO?
ARE YOU REFERRING TO BAEK MIN-HO?

Q: WHO HIT HER?
A: IT WAS BAEK MIN-HO

Did you receive it?

The glove

Ahn Tae-kyoo was wearing at the time.

I'll testify in court
that Jo Gab-soo ordered me to kill her.

I have evidence

of him ordering the murder 14 years ago.

I'll give it all to you.

Please save my brother.

A: IT WAS BAEK MIN-HO. BAEK MIN-HO DID IT.

AHN TAE-KYOO

CORRECTED

TRUE CORRECTION, TRUE HAPPINESS

VISITATION ROOM

Listen carefully, Min-ho.

I intend to get you out no matter what.

Why?

Because your brother has what I want.

I knew it.

He wouldn't just leave me here.

Don't be mistaken.

I won't cover up the crimes you committed.

Then,

what do I do now?

You have to stay focused.

If you testify like you did
during the questioning,

you'll take the fall for Tae-kyoo.

Okay.

This is the last bit.

Why are you showing this to me?

Things didn't go well
with the Chief Prosecutor.

I know you didn't see him.

I also know you never intended
to help me from the start.

Are you telling me
you'll go and do what you want?

You abandoned me first.

You stabbed me in the back!

That planner--

I know you won't hand it over for free.

I'll give you this

if you give me that planner.

If I release the video,
Kingdom will be known to the world.

Are you telling me you'll give up on it
to help Min-ho?

What can I do?

Both of our lives are on the line.

You better think very carefully.

I told you earlier, right?

This is your last chance.

I realized something
while serving you for 20 years.

You would never give up something
to help someone else.

Then,

what is that prosecutor giving up for you?

She and I just have
what each other wants. That's all.

Are you really going
to take it all the way?

What is this?

It was mailed to our office this morning.

-Who is it from?
-I don't know.

It came anonymously.

Also,

this box in the photo

must be the one with the glove
we got yesterday.

AHN TAE-KYOO, MAIN PERPETRATOR

BAEK MIN-HO, ACCOMPLICE

What are you doing at my desk?

Let's talk.

What is this?

What did you do yesterday?

When did they take that?

Why did Ahn Tae-kyoo become the main perp?

You also fixed Hyun Ji-soo's testimony.

What did you agree with Baek Sang-ho?

I told you
to take your hands off this case.

Don't you know what you've done?

I got a call from Ji-soo.

She said she kept the glove

that Ahn Tae-kyoo wore
while hitting Soo-ah

that night.

I sent the glove to the NFS.

If Tae-kyoo's DNA
and Soo-ah's blood are found,

it'll be decisive evidence.

Are you happy?

This is still wrong.

-What is?
-I know you're hurt.

I understand.

I'm frustrated
because I can't do anything for you.

-But what about Soo-ah's trial?
-What about it?

If they find the statement was fabricated,

they'll say that
the glove will not be admissible.

What will you do then?

Because of what you did on your own,

don't you think we might lose
the real culprit and ruin the trial?

Before it's too late,
stay out of the case.

-Why should I?
-Ms. Ma!

I won't ruin the trial.

I'll send Tae-kyoo to jail for murder
so that Soo-ah can rest in peace.

Then I have no choice.
I'll have to report it.

I can't let you ruin the case

for personal reasons.

Yes?

We have the result for the glove.

I'll be right there.

Do as you wish.

I won't give up on this case.

We found Ahn Tae-kyoo's DNA on the glove.

We also found Kong Soo-ah's blood.

Yes.

AUTOPSY REPORT

It's still a no.
You're no longer on this case.

No, I won't.

Meeting a family member of a suspect alone
disqualifies you from going to court.

You know that.

I can't do that.

I have to take this case.

Ms. Ma.

-I know it's hard because of your mom.
-What do you know?

How much do you know about my mom?

About how she was abducted by Jo Gab-soo
while trying to meet you,

then confined in a mental institute
for seven years?

About how she was killed by Baek Sang-ho

in case she became a problem?

How much of it do you know?

Do you know why I became a prosecutor?

I became a prosecutor to catch

those who took my mom from me

and made us suffer for 20 years
with my own hands.

And now,

I know exactly who they are.

Jo Gab-soo and Baek Sang-ho.

The statute of limitations for them
will expire soon.

If I don't get Baek Sang-ho's testimony,

Jo Gab-soo will get away with it
just like 20 years ago.

I'll make them pay with my own hands.

In order to do that,
I have to get Min-ho out of his charge.

Before you're Young-shil's daughter,
you are Prosecutor Ma I-deum.

Did you forget?

Has it never occurred to you

you could ruin Soo-ah's trial
with your actions?

I'm not turning someone innocent
into a criminal.

Ahn Tae-kyoo is the main perpetrator.

I will win the trial

and catch Jo Gab-soo too.

You can't take both of them to court.

As a prosecutor,

if you can't investigate the case
impartially,

you shouldn't be on it.

JO GAB-SOO AND KIM MOON-SUNG
ARE TRYING THEIR BEST

TO WIN THE HEARTS OF THE PUBLIC

2017 MAYORAL ELECTION

How much do you know about my mom?

About how she was abducted by Jo Gab-soo
while trying to meet you,

then confined in a mental institute
for seven years?

About how she was killed by Baek Sang-ho

in case she became a problem?

Are you saying

we should disregard
Hyun Ji-soo's testimony?

That's what I decided.

Did you know about Ms. Ma's mom too?

I know how much pain she's suffering.

I didn't tell you because I didn't know.

-Mr. Yeo.
-But a prosecutor fabricated evidence

and met with a suspect's family
to make a deal.

Is it right for us to cover it up,
for her sake?

It's true what Ms. Ma did was wrong.

That's why she won't handle
the case anymore.

Indict Ahn Tae-kyoo with this.

It's conclusive evidence.

Yes.

OH SOO-CHUL

Yes, of course.

I'll look into it and take care of it.

Okay.

Mr. Park?

Go to Ma I-deum's office

and check the result

on Ahn Tae-kyoo and Baek Min-ho.

Do it right away.

They're all dead meat.

A new Yongpa!

A city that guarantees
the citizens' safety!

I, Jo Gab-soo,

will guarantee it!

Just like now,

I'll continue to serve you well!

I love you,

dear citizens.

CANDIDATE 2
KIM MOON-SUNG

A new Yongpa!

I'll sacrifice myself for you.

I trust that you will make

wise decisions.

-I'll make a city
-Sir.

-that can support youths' passion!
-It's Mr. Jo's file.

I'll sacrifice myself to serve you!

He kidnapped an innocent woman,

confined her,

and murdered her!

I say he is not eligible
to become a mayor!

KIM MOON-SUNG'S EMERGENCY PRESS CONFERENCE

In 1996, Jo Gab-soo

was on trial
for the Hyungjae Factory Case.

He was found innocent at the first trial

when he ran into a victim
named Kwak Young-shil who had evidence.

He abducted her right away
and confined her in a mental institute.

I almost forgot about it
until seven years later.

When he was about to enter politics
with the Future Party,

he figured she might become a hindrance
and ordered me to kill her.

The first reason the victim died

was cruel assault.

Ahn Tae-kyoo…

EVIDENCE 1

…wore this glove with studs

when he assaulted Kong Soo-ah.

And she ended up

losing consciousness.

DEFENSE COUNSEL, DEFENDANT

JURY

According to the NFS,

Kong Soo-ah's blood
and Ahn Tae-kyoo's DNA were found

on the glove.

Objection.

Do you have evidence
that the glove belongs to the defendant?

DEFENDANT

Do you see it?

"A.T. K."

What could it be?

It's Ahn Tae-kyoo's initials.

Is that good enough?

That'll be all, Your Honor.

Sir.

The reporters are going crazy.

Since they spread it right away,

it's already all over the internet.

Let's wait a while longer.

The rain will stop soon.

As the Prosecution claimed,

let's assume that the glove

belongs to Ahn Tae-kyoo.

It's the truth. Why would you assume?

However,

it can't prove that he was
the one who assaulted her.

Defense, what do you mean?

Kong Soo-ah's blood on the glove
might not be from an assault.

It's possible it got on the glove
while he was dumping her body.

Objection.

She cannot substantiate it.
It's clouding the issue.

I have the evidence.

Your Honor,

I'd like to submit the knuckles
found in Ahn Tae-kyoo's scraped car.

This was often

used by the other defendant, Baek Min-ho,
who had a reputation for turning violent.

I have never seen that in my life!

Defendant, keep quiet.

On the knuckles,

we found Baek Min-ho's DNA

and the victim's blood.

It's a fabrication!

I have never worn this in my life!

Defendant.

Objection, Your Honor.

Defense just claimed

that Kong's blood got on Ahn's glove

while he was moving the body.

Then the blood on the knuckles cannot
be seen as evidence of an assault as well.

Your Honor,

I have evidence to prove
that this was used to assault her.

What is it?

It's

her wounds.

The patterns of the wounds

and the shape of the knuckles

match exactly.

What could this mean?

It means the one that assaulted the victim
and caused her death

is the defendant

Baek Min-ho.

That's ridiculous.
I've never seen that before!

Your Honor, I'm being framed!
It's a conspiracy!

I've never seen that before,
not even once.

Hey, Tae-kyoo. Tell the truth!

-Calm down.
-Tell the truth, you rat!

-Calm down.
-Hey!

Keep it down!

Prosecution.
Reevaluate the case thoroughly again

and revise the indictment of Baek Min-ho.

We will resume the trial thereafter.

We will adjourn
until the same time tomorrow.

Ma'am.

What's going on?

Why did the trial end like this?

Didn't both of them do
those bad things to Soo-ah?

Then can't you just punish them both?

What's the problem

that you're stalling like this?

Ma'am, the thing is…

We're from Internal Affairs.

Ms. Ma.

I have some questions.
Please come with us.

What is this regarding?

What's going on?

I'm Min Ji-sook, the head of the unit.

What's going on?

Don't worry, ma'am.

We'll send them both to jail tomorrow.

Okay.

Let's go.

Take a look.

What is your relationship

with Baek Sang-ho?

I barely know him.

Why did you meet the defendant's family?

I ran into him by chance.

If you barely know him
and met him by chance,

why did you change the testimony?

-I don't remember.
-What deal did you make with him?

Look. Don't you think
it's the wrong way round?

Shouldn't you look into who took these
and why they sent them to you first?

Ms. Ma I-deum.

Answer the question.

I won't until you tell me
who sent in these photos.

I'll take the Fifth.

Fine. You try that.

It's over.

It's really over for me now.

Min-ho.

You saw how it went.

How can we possibly beat them?
They can make up anything as they want.

Sang-ho. Does this make any sense?

I'm going to rot in jail
for at least 20 years,

but Tae-kyoo will live well
like nothing's happened.

What is this?

REAL ESTATE DEED
OWNER: BAEK MIN-HO

Do you remember?

That house

with the tree that you liked

we saw on the way to the market
when you were little.

You said you'd make a lot of money
and buy it when you grew up.

Sang-ho.

This house is really nice.

That tree is super nice too.

Later on, I'll make lots and lots of money

and buy this house.

When I do, we will live here together
for a long time.

Okay?

Sure. Let's live here together
for a long time.

I couldn't wait any longer

and bought that house.

What are you talking about?
Didn't you hear me?

My life…

is completely over.

No.

It isn't over yet.

Min-ho.

Listen to me.

We have one last shot.

I swear I'll get you out.

This is Baek Sang-ho.

I'll give you my planner.
Where should I go?

Sang-ho.

Where did you say you live?

Things are a big mess.

You may end up getting hurt by this too.

I'm worried about that.

Why don't you just dump that prosecutor?

What happened with Ms. Ma?

It won't be easy.

Ahn Tae-kyoo's side must be behind
the photos and testimony.

I'm not sure.

I'll go to NFS.

I'll check if the analysis
of the knuckles was legit.

Knuckles?

I don't remember seeing it.

If we had received it, I would've seen it.

The test listed was Jung Young-ho.

He took a day off today.

-Pardon?
-I'll tell him to call

when he comes in tomorrow.

Hello?

So you said you needed to see me?

I heard Ms. Ma I-deum was unreachable.

What do you want to tell me?

My brother says

he has a video that could be evidence.

A video?

Of that night.

A video of Tae-kyoo
hitting her that night.

My brother says
he'll take the stand tomorrow

and reveal the video then
since we don't know

what they'll do
if we submit it beforehand.

I really

didn't do it.

That video will prove it. So please, sir,

help my brother testify in court

tomorrow.

Hello, sir.

Sang-ho.

Is this how you've lived?

Yes.

You and I both

have lived lonely lives.

This is the planner.

Sang-ho.

I'm sorry.

You don't have to apologize.

No.

I really mean it.

I know what Min-ho means to you.

After your mom left when he was a baby,

you raised him like he was your son.

But I took Tae-kyoo's side instead of his.

You must've been so hurt.

But Sang-ho,

can't you trust me just one more time?

You know, right?

I've barely gotten this far

without any connections or support.

And I still have a long way to go.

I can't go backward

because of something that's in the past.

Gab-soo.

Are you telling me

to take the fall

once again?

You're the only one

who can save me,

and I'm the only person

who can save Min-ho.

This is neither an order

nor a threat.

As a friend who cherishes you,

I'm asking you to do this for me.

Do this for me.

Sang-ho.

I promise

to save Min-ho.

So,

please save me just this once.

CONFESSION

I, BAEK SANG-HO

Sang-ho.

Thank you.

MA I-DEUM MADE ME LIE

SEOUL CENTRAL DISTRICT PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

KONG SOO-AH MURDER CASE SECOND TRIAL

PROSECUTION

DEFENDANT

DEFENSE COUNSEL

DEFENDANT

Prosecution.

Is your witness here yet?

Please give him another minute.
He'll be here soon.

Your Honor.

Isn't it a waste of time
to wait for a witness who isn't coming?

The prosecutor
hasn't revised the indictment

using the witness as an excuse.

Prosecution.

He died because of the prosecutor.

Baek Min-ho's older brother?

That's right. His brother.

He really died.

It's his brother.

What?

He died.

Silence in court.

Prosecution.

Is your witness

Baek Sang-ho, Baek Min-ho's older brother?

Yes, it is.

Baek Sang-ho

was found dead just now.

I, Baek Sang-ho,

lied in order to save my brother

who is on trial.

I did it because of Ma I-deum,
the prosecutor in charge.

My confession that I abducted, locked up,
and murdered Kwak Young-shil

was a lie coerced by Ma I-deum.

I want to make it clear that
Jo Gab-soo has nothing to do it all.

Everything above

is true.

The brother of Baek on trial for murder,
Baek Sang-ho,

was found dead in his house.

His suicide note states

he was threatened by Ma, the prosecutor
on his brother's case.

Jo Gab-soo,
who was especially close to Baek,

canceled his campaign schedule

to show his respects
and showed deep sorrow.

Sang-ho.

He said Ma I-deum

had been pressuring him

to lie if necessary

to create a political scandal,

and to create false evidence
if he wanted to save his brother.

Sang-ho was unable to endure the pressure

and took his own life.

Why didn't anyone stop that prosecutor
before it happened?

What was the prosecution

doing this entire time?

The defendant Baek Min-ho

assaulted the victim for a prolonged time

while raping her, causing her death.

He disposed of the body
in order to cover up his crime.

These are heinous crimes.

However, instead of showing
any remorse for his crimes,

he tried to pin the crimes on
the accused Ahn Tae-kyoo who was with him,

which made it impossible for us
to show any clemency.

Thus,

I accept the jury's unanimous verdict

and declare as follows.

I hereby

sentence the defendant Baek Min-ho
to 18 years in prison.

Ahn Tae-kyoo

admitted to aiding and abetting,
and is sentenced to three years in prison.

However,

his sentence will be reduced
to five years of probation.

Thank you,
ladies and gentlemen of the jury.

I, Jo Gab-soo, as a member of society,

desperately request

the Prosecutors' Office

to punish Prosecutor Ma I-deum.

The evil prosecutor who faked evidence,

oppressively questioned
and threatened him,

and made him take his own life.

She is a murderer

and must be punished severely.

SUPREME PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

So,

are you saying

you ordered her to do all of it?

Yes.

I ordered her
to alter the testimony as well.

Ma I-deum simply followed my orders.

Do you mean

you'll take full responsibility?

I must.

It may not end with demotion
or disciplinary action.

I'm prepared.

I don't understand.

Why are you protecting
that prosecutor so much?

MIN JI-SOOK

Why did you come all the way here?

You should be working.

-Give me that. I'll…
-It's okay.

Go back to your desks and do your work.

Ms. Jang, I leave the unit in your hands.

Ma'am.

I don't get it.

Ms. Ma broke the law.

Why is Ms. Min quitting?

We should have dinner together.

A farewell party, if you will.

We can't just let you go like this.

It will be my treat.

Ma'am.

Call me if you ever need me.

If you need me,
I'll resign and go work for you.

I'll get going.

Take care.

I'll take that.

No, it's okay.

Don't see me out.

I'll go alone.

Are you really leaving like this?

Ms. Ma I-deum.

The investigation is over.
You may return to work.

PRIME SUSPECT'S BROTHER FOUND DEAD

Ms. Ma?

You're famous now.

Everyone calls you a boss killer.

Say what you want to say.

Min Ji-sook

resigned for you.

What?

She covered for you
when you fabricated evidence

and met the defendant's family
to threaten them.

My goodness.

No matter how much she was demoted,
she never budged.

But with one bad subordinate,
her career ended at once.

Don't you feel anything by now?

What?

Are you saying I should quit
since she did?

Why should you quit?

You'll get fired too anyway.

It's your seventh year
as a prosecutor, right?

Your qualifications are being evaluated.

Look, I-deum.

Let me give you a piece of advice
for old times' sake.

Just quit on your own before you're fired.

If you get fired,
you can't even open a law office.

Right?

Think it over.

Goodness.

Ma'am.

I just confirmed that
the knuckles evidence was fabricated.

I'll appeal.

I'll lock Ahn Tae-kyoo up.
I won't give up.

Okay. I didn't give up either.

We'll meet again soon.

You said you'd make Soo-ah rest in peace.

Ahn Tae-kyoo got away with probation.

Baek Sang-ho, who promised to testify,

is dead.

And Ms. Min…

resigned.

What about your mom's matter?

Did you uncover the truth

as you hoped?

Answer me.

You're right.

I ruined everything.
