Tower of Babel

It must have been so unbearable that you wanted to die.

To others you two appeared to be happily married.

That's what even the families believed.

You couldn't tell anyone because you are a famous actress

with the title of daughter-in-law of a chaebol family.

And then you couldn't stand it anymore.

If Tae Min Ho became the Geosan Group successor,

you wouldn't be able to escape forever.

Unable to tolerate it any longer,

you asked Tae Min Ho for a divorce the day of the incident.

Wasn't that it?

The request for a divorce must have enraged Tae Min Ho.

Losing his mind, Tae Min Ho assaulted you again.

Immediately after the incident there is a record

that your neck was injured from being strangled.

Why are you silent? Why?

Isn't it that you had no other choice to save your life?

Please answer.

Do you admit you killed him in order to defend yourself?

I won't answer any more.

Prosecutor Cha Woo Hyeok

But then that's when the prosecutor does his work as a prosecutor.

If he uses his ability to defend the suspect

I'm sure it's going to be his downfall.

If love is the reason,

it's going to be even more lethal.

That's not going to happen.

I won't allow that to happen.

Yes?

What's taking you so long? Everybody is here.

Everybody is there? Okay, I'll be right there.

You can't even tell me that?

What is the evidence the prosecution has?

Isn't it one out of two?

Either it's a perfect case or nonsense.

If it's not that, then why refuse to testify? She has no reason for that.

Which is it?

Can't you just be quiet today?

It's a perfect case, isn't it?

If it's nonsense, then you have no reason to be like this now.

If it's true, then don't you think you need to stay away from Jeong Won?

"If you commit a crime, you must pay."

Isn't that what you've always said?

Sorry, sorry. I had something to wrap up.

You vagabonds across the street, you can't eat this

sort of food at your home (police station), do you?

The Commissioner is buying for all the hard work you've done.

Ribeyes are a special treat.

To be precise, we are eating with tax money.

Ah yes, yes. I understand.

Eat up.

Let's drink one.

Good work! Good work!

But isn't it kind of off?

I know right? This isn't Korean beef, right?

No, I am talking about the prosecutor.

He's driving the case for self-defense.

He's not even a defense attorney. Am I the only one feeling this way?

Wonder if he's going to quit being a prosecutor

and open an office to be a defense attorney.

Detective Lee, this is how it works.

There is plenty of evidence but crucial evidence,

there is no crucial evidence. So what's important?

- That is... - It's a confession.

- That's right the confession. - I know right?

He'll drive the case as the crime committed

as self-defense and then get the confession.

Then the murder case is made.

Whether it was self-defense or not, it can be argued in the court later.

Um... jackpot.

What's with your face?

- He's a bit slow. - That's strange.

What is strange? You are never ready to listen and learn.

Hey, he said Prosecutor was working on it with a very high level of strategy.

That isn't it? I am asking why Han Jeong Won didn't say it was?

If she answered, then it becomes self-defense.

Perhaps she can't admit it.

Why not?

Because she didn't kill him.

She can plead the fifth even if she killed him, right?

You don't even know the principle of presumed innocent, do you?

Educate yourself. Whether she killed him or not, we got no confession from her.

Interrogation Room

I am sorry. You must take the detour.

- Why? - There's an accident.

Customer. Customer?

Police Line

I saw it.

Please take a detour.

You cannot cross here.

- What happened? - Just leave please.

- Hold on - What's the matter with you?

I'm a Western District Prosector.

You've been drinking. Please leave.

Hey you!

Babel

Hyung, did you get home all right? I'm sorry.

I was shocked so I just blabbed whatever.

- Ricky is dead. - What?

I think he got murdered in front of the house.

Do you mean your house? Are you positive?

I verified it with my own eyes.

Who killed him?

I am not...

Who could've killed...

What if you are in danger, too?

Then I'd know who did it.

Are you crazy?

I am nervous, Hyung.

What if this gets buried forever?

You worked hard. I've received it.

Shall we meet?

I'll tell you everything you've wondered about.

What kind of card I have,

No, what happened to your father.

Who was the cause of it. Everything.

I'm tied up right now.

After a short time. We'll meet in a little while.

Where is it? I'll go to you.

Is that it?

Do you think you'll have another chance?

Ricky! Ricky!

Geosan Group is getting a legal team now. Don't worry.

You just need to sign here.

An innocent verdict might be hard, but we'll

reduce the sentence as low as possible.

I'll ask what you were doing on the day of the crime.

Why did you go to the headquarters?

Let me see my mother-in-law.

Pardon?

I said I want to see my mother-in-law.

Ah that is a bit...

Given the case, I don't think it looks good for you two to meet now.

Madam.

Give this to the madame. If she reads it, she will meet with me.

Tower of Babel

She said she wants to see me?

As if...? I don't want to.

Of course, that's also what I told her but,

- she gave me this. - What is it?

She said if you read this, you will consent to meet with her.

Did you read this?

No, I didn't.

Manager Lee, get the car ready.

Yes, Madam.

Since she doesn't want to answer, omit the self-defense and submit the warrant.

We are still interrogating her, and there are questionable parts as well.

The alibi, murder weapon, motive, and video evidence.

You found them all! What more do you need?

Give me a little more time!

Why are you getting angry? Did I say anything wrong?

It's thorough enough, so submit the warrant.

It's my case! I'll do it my way.

Hey, hey!

Long time no see, Prosecutor Cha.

Why are you here?

I've come to see Jeong Won.

I am sorry, but visitation is not allowed.

Is that right? I see you still don't know your place.

I am a prosecutor and this is the Prosecution Office. You need to leave.

Han Jeong Won requested a visit.

Han Jeong Won did?

Is it like she is one of the Geosan people even if she killed her son?

Are you talking about Sin Hyeon Sook?

She is still a member of the family. Isn't it natural that she visits her?

But the family members wielded a knife on each other?

That is...

They are different from our people, aren't they?

It's right for them to smooth things over from the point of Geosan.

Right. If Han Jeong Won becomes a culprit, Geosan will lose their face.

She came here in the same women's shoes.

No way. Still, she killed her son.

You got haggard a lot.

What happened? How did that happen?

You didn't come here to check that, did you?

Right. Let's stop talking about unimportant stuff.

How...

How did you get this?

I took care of the rest so don't worry too much.

When you get home, you should act like nothing happened.

Then no one suspects you, Madam.

I'll contact you at the proper time.

I believe that

you will keep your promise for sure.

Will

Testator: Tae Byeong Chan (太竝燦)

Regardless how I got this,

isn't it important that I have the will that says Min Ho will inherit?

Is that so?

Then...

What are you going to do with that?

That depends on what you're going to do.

What do you want me to do?

Get me out of here. You have the ability, don't you?

That's it?

You want to negotiate a deal with me over such a piece of paper?

I thought you're smart but you're such a fool.

Right. That's why you chose Min Ho.

Even if some inheritance is left to Min Ho, you don't have any right to have any of it.

Because you killed Min Ho with your own hand. That's how the law works.

I'll send enough money to your commissary account in jail.

That is my ability that I can do for you.

What if I am carrying Min Ho's child?

What are you talking?

I don't have a right.

But it's a different story for his child.

Because the child is Min Ho's.

And I am that child's mom.

You're not interested in this, are you?

Then I need to discuss with lawyers how the law works.

What an insolent wench!

Thanks to you, I had a nice meeting with her.

Why did you meet with Sin Hyeon Sook?

Is it true you asked to meet her first?

I had something to discuss with her.

About what?

I have nothing to tell you right now.

Then, when will you tell me?

Is it possible that I'll hear it?

I'll interrogate you again no matter what.

Just answer "yes" to my question once at that time.

I'll not get interrogated any more. I'll take care of my matter myself.

I'm thankful for everything you've done.

Starting now, I will be assisted by Geosan.

That is the contract for Geosan Electrics factory in India.

There is no big issue but we just added the patent part as you mentioned.

What's the matter?

Vacation Request

Vacation?

Director, what do you think the life is?

Stop silly talking. You act like this because

of yesterday's matter? Are you rebelling?

What do you think I am? It's not specially busy.

And give some reward to me who only have worked strai...

No, you can't.

Right! I can't. There is no way that I can.

Should I make you keep taking off forever?

Ah, really. You bad boss. I'll sue you for violating a manner about vacation.

Get out.

What is it?

Madam! Madam!

Mom?

Why has she come?

I can't say. I wonder why would she?

What is the fastest way you can get her out?

Well, to do so, we have to make it investigation without

detention before the case turns into a court hearing.

It's possible, right?

No matter what, get her out.

If you do that, you will be promoted to a managing director.

Yes, it's possible.

The Prosecutor's office only has circumstantial evidence

and doesn't have direct evidence for the murder.

Just like how we did for your son, if we argue that

there is no sufficient evidence, it's possible.

You will have to make it happen.

Otherwise, I will make sure that you can never flaunt your lawyer title anywhere.

Yes, Ma'am. Please don't worry and take easy.

What is the evidence the prosecutor's office obtained?

Pardon?

Ah, that's... we're trying to figuring it out now.

You don't even know what it is but you will

dismiss the case without sufficient evidence?

How can such a thing come out of a defense lawyer's mouth?

The thing is... most of all, there is no motive for the murder.

If we persist with that point...

The prosecutor's office couldn't find the motive for murder?

Are you sure? Don't you know which prosecutor is in charge of this case?

It's Cha Woo Hyeok, who is known as a swordsman in the Western District Office.

When he is welding his sword at this case, will it be possible?

Please leave.

Pardon?

Please leave.

What are you doing?

Let me take care of it.

I will defend Jeong Won.

I appreciate that you prove how useless they were,

but why did you change your mind all of a sudden?

I got to know

that Jeong Won had been assaulted by Min Ho.

What?

Even worst, constantly.

Is that right?

Min Ho did?

Jeong Won has been hiding that.

Karma killed Min Ho, then.

We lived together for seven years but nobody noticed at all.

Jeong Won must have suffered.

Now we need to protect Jeong Won.

We should.

We must.

I will give you an useful tool.

Take it.

Whose is this?

An informant.

He will be useful.

- Welcome. - Hi.

Isn't it cold? Would like some tea?

No, thank you.

It's 1,000 won.

- Who are you visiting? - Pardon?

Only neighbors comes here usually.

Well,

I came to see Kim Myeong Sin.

What's for?

You know Kim Jae Goo, don't you?

He has nothing to do with me.

Kim Jae Goo was murdered last night.

You must be shocked a lot.

I am sorry to say this

but is there anyone who came to look for him?

Or did he leave anything behind?

- Get out. - Excuse me?

Get out. I don't know such a person.

- Get out. - Ma'am.

Get out.

Please.

Get out.

National Forensic Service

I'll not get interrogated any more.

I'll take care of my matter myself.

Thank you for everything.

From now on, Geosan will beassisting me.

Prosecutor Cha, what are you doing here?

When you were here, you should've come in. Come on in.

What was the cause of death?

Excessive bleeding. I think it was done by a professional murderer.

Professional murderer?

There are bruises all over the body. He hit only the pressure points.

What? Who did this?

- So? Did you meet her? - Yeah.

Well, I couldn't get anything.

You worked hard. Safe trip to come home.

Have you eaten?

Is it fun to do that?

Here.

Do you remember?

Even after thirty years,

this is still existing...

Do you know how hard and tiring it was for me to take care of this matter?

It's because of you.

If you hadn't done such a thing, the situation wouldn't have become like this.

Well...

Everything is over now.

Death due to murder

Is it over as it is?

I heard you would defend Han Jeong Won. Good decision.

I was worried a lot.

Korean Air Line Business Boarding Ticket Kim Seong Chan

Go on vacation.

What are you talking? You said, no for that.

We're going to be very busy to prepare the defense.

Sunbae. No way...

You can't be, can you?

Then why did you say you would defend her?

To make her a murderer?

As a family member or a lawyer, you can't do that!

If she committed a crime, she must pay for it.

I don't need something like this.

We found out Executive Director Go went and met Chairman.

Executive Director Go?

He even went there without his secretary.

Come in.

You're in the middle of talking, aren't you? I'll come back later.

Why are you hiding yourself and listening?

If you want to listen, you can come in and listen.

You can do that from now on.

So... Executive Director Go met my dad?

Yes. But...

His ear got hurt.

Whose ear? Dad's?

No. Chairman bit Executive Director Go's ear.

Why? Because he was hungry?

He didn't like the hospital food?

Sorry.

And?

Yes.

Most of the directors are in favor of your succession.

How about Director Park's case?

As you expected.

Send these pictures to him and tell him I'll

send him home if he keeps walking over me.

Yes. I understand.

Does Mom know about this?

No, Madam doesn't know it yet.

Good. Don't tell mom about this.

I wondered who it was.

This is quite unexpected.

Anyhow, I'm glad to see you. I wanted to see you.

Because I need to know who is working on it.

He's going to drive the case for self-defense?

He is going to sacrifice himself?

It sounds like Cha Woo Hyeok.

What I need is Prosecutor Cha's information.

I'm requesting all the investigation records

regarding Han Jeong Won without missing any.

I loved you so I coveted you.

That made you be in danger.

What is the most painful for me is

that I can look at you only while feeling sorry toward you.

I don't want to do that any more.

Arrest Warrant

He signed it.

Take a look at it.

I'll be back.

Han Jeong Won arrest warrant issued.

What are you making?

What about Jeong Won?

I told you to bring everybody, including Woo Hyeok.

It just happened that you came separately, didn't it?

Right?

Mi Seon.

Don't wait for them.

Who do you talk about? What do you mean?

Jeong Won can't come.

The request for the arrest warrant was submitted.

It's impossible.

- Where are you going? - I need to stop it.

It's no use.

The arrest warrant has already been requested.

It's not Jeong Won but Cha Woo Hyeok, that human.

Who do you think is having the hardest time now?

Do you know what that human said to me?

He said he would never take his hands off, no matter what.

But what is this? I'm asking what this is?!

Hyung did his best.

Is this his best that he played with her when she was in good times

but he throws her away when she is in a difficult and bad time?

That human is trash that nothing has changed to him between before and now.

Don't say things thoughtlessly.

You're the same kind of person, too!

You brought all this to yourself.

Ah.

Even though I knew this would happen,

because of the greed,

I didn't predict the future.

Thirty years ago,

Chairman Tae, I mean.

I was out of my mind.

I abandoned my wife and kids because of being out of my mind.

I tried to come back.

I... I...

Thirty years has past while I was just thinking.

After I was contacted by you, I felt like I found a life line.

You must be curious, right?

Why your father...

And how he died?

Your father, Cha Seong Woon...

That knife was the one that killed your father.

Can you get in the locked folder?

I don't think you're in the age that your minds are in and out.

Pardon?

You're not here because you forgot your password, aren't you?

How much does it cost if you do?

I'm saying it's illegal to do.

How come she doesn't understand?

I'm asking how much it will cost if you do.

How can people live only by laws?

One million won.

It's possible to negotiate the price.

How long?

Well, depending on the case but it takes around one day?

That is too long... About five hours?

If you solve the problem within 30 minutes, I'll pay twice.

Please leave.

It doesn't seem you're here to inform me of something good.

You're wrong.

Today is the happiest day in my life.

Because I got to know the truth I've been looking for all my life.

Are you here to tell me that?

Yes.

Is that so?

I don't know what it is but I'm not curious about it at all.

Why do I need to hear such a thing from such a meager guy like you?

No.

You don't need to hear it.

Because it's your turn to speak out.

Tell me!

Why did you kill my father?

I came here as a lawyer, on behalf of Geosan.

I told you not to show up in front of Jeong Won again.

I'll do my best as a lawyer.

Are you going to do your best as a prosecutor?

Do your best?
