Jung Hwan!

Jung Hwan!

[Jung Gook Hyun, Director of Judicial Training Center]

[Prime Candidate for Prosecutor General]

[Prosecutor General Candidate Lee Tae Joon]

Jung is older than me, but a year junior as a prosecutor.

If he becomes Prosecutor General, I have to take off my prosecutor robe.

An elderly shouldn't take off clothes in this frigid cold weather.

Let's take it to the Special Investigation Team.

I'll review the internal inspection file on Jung Gook Hyun and his relatives again.

Jung Hwan, I need to take the Prosecutor General's seat this time.

Please help me.

I got it, sir.

First... let's have breakfast.

What?

I'll set a table for you.

[Episode 1] Mom! Hurry, hurry! Mom, Hurry!

Ye Rin, wait for me!

Hurry up!

He has a birthday party next week, but I'm not invited.

Everyone else is invited.

I guess the rumor is out in the kindergarten.

You don't listen to your mom and you take at least an hour to wake up in the morning.

Good morning!

- Maybe Hyun Woo doesn't like me. - Tell him I feel the same way.

Mom!

I'll come pick you up later.

Girl...

- Good morning! - Good morning!

Hello, Detective Oh.

Let's go! Tell your moms, 'Have a good day!'

Please send back the investigation report on my desk.

I'll get the warrant on the suspect after additional investigation...

Stop!

Hold tight!

Mom!

Illinois State University, business major, Jung Ho Joon.

He's probably in his dorm room.

Problems are there to be solved, John.

If Jung Gook Hyun becomes Prosecutor General, he'll hit us.

I hear the inspection team already started an internal investigation on you.

I can't reach Jung Hwan all day.

I sent Jung Hwan to run an errand.

Hey, did you eat? Do you want a bite?

Okay.

The noodle doesn't taste good since the new chef came to Beijing House.

Order from Seongwon House next time.

I can't find a speck of dirt on Director Jung even with the Special Team.

You didn't even properly run my errand...

Why are you eating the pay for the errand?

Is it easy to catch a tiger for someone who's used to catching deers?

I hear Chief Jung's nickname is 'a tiger of Seocho-dong.'

Where does the tiger eat and shit that no smell is coming out of his outhouse?

Tiger is scary but its skin looks good.

What can we do? We have to catch the cub at least.

[Dormitory of Illinois State University, U.S.A.]

Freeze! Freeze!

You're under arrest for the possession of drugs...

Anything you say can and will be used against you.

Jung Gook Hyun's son...

I heard he's in school in the States.

He's probably being transferred to the Illinois prosecutors' office by now.

It's dangerous. It could expand to a diplomatic issue, and if reporters find out later...

Kang Jae, stop marking someone else's answer sheet and give your own.

Nothing?

Then let's put our names on Jung Hwan's answer sheet. Good?

- Here. - Thanks.

Director Jung probably has a connection in the prosecutors' office in the States.

If it goes wrong, we could be reprimanded.

You and me both.

Receiving the prosecutor’s salary... or eating bean rice (prison meal)...

Either way, I'll be getting paid from the country.

- I'll be back. - Sure.

He finished the whole bowl.

Kang Jae, order another noodle bowl.

He said Seongwon House.

[Jung Gook Hyun, Prosecutor General Candidate, Director of Judicial Training Center]

Step down from the Prosecutor General candidate?

If this comes out at the hearing, your honor built over 25 years will be destroyed.

And the Prosecutors' Office will get hurt, too.

Prepare for a press conference in an hour. In the Training Center briefing room.

How should I prepare the press release?

Write it down.

Director of Judicial Training Center Jung Gook Hyun's son Jung Ho Joon

was arrested in Illinois for suspicion of marijuana possession.

Before my shame as a father

I will run for the Prosecutor General for my last duty as a prosecutor.

Director Jung...

I will complete the reform of the Prosecutors' Office

and eradicate the group

that tried to monopolize the Office by threatening me with my son's issues.

I will not work as an attorney after I retire.

I will live the rest of my life with the feeling of atonement.

You may leave.

I didn't raise my son right...

but I raised fine prosecutors.

I was a professor at the Judicial Training Center for over 10 years.

I've taught hundreds of prosecutors.

I have to show them...

how a proper prosecutor should live.

Director...

I didn't teach the Code of Criminal Procedure!

I taught how a prosecutor should live! I taught what a prosecutor should live for!

Park Jung Hwan!

Are you a prosecutor of Korea?

Yes, I am a prosecutor of Korea.

[Ye Rin's Mom]

[John Smith, Illinois]

John, stop the interrogation. Go back to the dorm room.

Okay, cocaine.

Park Jung Hwan!

Cocaine is a serious one. You should know what I'm saying?

I got it.

I have friends at the federal prosecutors' office.

Prosecutor Lee Tae Joon also trained in Washington for two years.

Do you think he has no friends at the federal prosecutors' office?

- If this case gets re investigated, you... - Director...

I believe your wife has a heart problem.

She probably can't go visit him in prison in Illinois.

Your son won't be able to come back to the country for at least five years.

Please protect your family, sir.

We will protect your honor.

Two candidates were nominated from the Prosecutor General appointment committee.

Mr. President says he will honor your opinion, Madame.

Director Jung Gook Hyun declined to be appointed as Prosecutor General.

Mr. President is here.

Jung Gook Hyun, Director of the Judicial Training Center

and Lee Tae Joon, Chief Prosecutor of Seoul District Prosecutors' Office...

Who will be appropriate for the Prosecutor General, Minister of Justice?

Chief Prosecutor Lee Tae Joon of Seoul District Office is nominated as the Prosecutor General.

Ahead of the confirmation hearing scheduled for next week

the hearing preparation committee divided tasks in policy, management, identity...

- What's this? - The hospital gown is pretty.

You can't. It belongs to the hospital.

Guardian of Patient Park Ye Rin?

Yes?

There is no fracture. I'll prescribe antibiotics for the swelling on the ligament.

As long as she doesn't move too much, she'll recover in a few days.

Thank you.

- Unwrap the bandage tomorrow. - Yes.

What about the driver...

The driver's seat absorbed the shock of crashing into another car.

His internal damage is severe. We'll determine if we'll operate on him in a few days.

He went to his school reunion the night before the accident?

He drove a bus with kids inside when he wasn't even sober?

No, my husband hasn't had a drink in over 10 years.

Then he must've dozed off on the wheel.

Or inexperienced driving...

Ma'am, you need to cooperate in our investigation...

He wasn't dozing off. He patted my Ye Rin's head as she was getting on the bus.

And we looked in the eye to say hello.

Sure.

I'm Shin Ha Gyung, prosecutor of the Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors' Office.

Did you investigate the bus company and the repair shop?

They claimed that there was no mechanical flaw...

- So I was going to wrap up the case... - Start over.

Send me the investigation report with the repair record this morning.

Hurry up.

I will.

Prosecutor?

Yes. Someone who punishes bad people

and solves problems when a hard-working man like your father

gets into unjustified troubles.

Did you have breakfast?

I wonder if you like pork cutlet?

There is this place with a king-sized pork cutlet this big in front of the hospital.

Should we go eat together later?

Okay.

[Ministry of Justice] Goodness, I got a call from the Blue House

I heard that you recommended me as the Prosecutor General...

so this is water collected drop by drop from Painted Maple trees.

I hear it's good for digestion if you take it after each meal.

Be careful.

It's time to leave for the party conference.

- Have the car ready in five minutes. - Yes, ma'am.

Goodness, you're really busy.

Let me see...

After the Chief Justice's inauguration ceremony tomorrow

if you leave your schedule open, we can eat together and...

You don't need to come to the inauguration.

You must be busy preparing for the hearing.

I saw many who came to receive applause... but left with fingers pointed at them.

As long as you clap for me, who'd dare to point a finger at me?

Minister of Justice, Prosecutor General...

Two horses should look at the front and just run for it.

If they stare at each other... it'll be a shame to other people.

What's really shameful is...

without apologizing for numerous fabricated cases as a public prosecutor

the one who created factions in the Prosecutors' Office

and appointed his men in key positions

becomes the Prosecutor General

and receives the oath at the new prosecutor appointment ceremony.

Your stomach can be eased with the Painted Maple tree juice...

But I wonder how we can resolve our misunderstanding?

This is how the people see the Prosecutors' Office.

When an upright leader takes a stand

and honest juniors follow him...

maybe our Office will get a little bit clean at least.

Coming to the world, wearing a white robe...

but getting dirt on and wearing out...

People might say, 'this one's white, so why is that one so dark?'

Madame, please don't forget.

This is sugar.

Ouch, so hot!

It's sweet.

Then... I'll see you at the inauguration.

Stay seated.

Let's go.

The hearing committee seems to have a lot of questions for him.

Meet with them.

The hearing committee is on the Minister's side.

They'll try to take off my underwear.

Jung Hwan, take charge of the hearing preparation committee...

Jung Hwan should step back for a while...

Why?

The rumor that he was involved in the elimination of Director Jung as the candidate...

Kang Jae, you just listen to me.

He's coming!

There is a report out that you won't pass the hearing.

How can you worry about a funeral when you come to a party?

Someone tipped-off that Prosecutor Park Jung Hwan had a deal with a prosecutor in Illinois.

Please state your position.

- Please tell us your opinion. - Please state your position!

[Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors' Office]

Here here, work hard for our Prosecutor this week...

Prosecutor Shin, you're here!

Prosecutor Shin, squid, baby squid, filefish?

I'm going to stop by Pohang, then go all the way up

making stops in Gosung, Sokcho, Gangneung...

But my wife said we should buy a gift of dried fish that looks just like you...

Oh, this is my treat for my upcoming vacation.

What does this mean, Prosecutor Shin?

Put off your vacation for another time, Detective Oh Dong Choon.

Just why?

This will refute the claim that the driver stepped on the accelerator, not the break.

- Add this to the list of evidence. - Yes, ma'am.

Sudden unintended acceleration (SUA) means

the ECU is reset due to voltage malfunction...

I understand that it happens a lot from too much air injected in the throttle valves.

I studied a little.

The highest quality chip should be used for a part that determines people's lives.

But cheap, defective ones were used to cut costs?

When the ECU malfunctions from a defective part...

It's the model that Sejin Auto introduced before they went bankrupt three years ago.

Even I know what's going on, so would all those doctors not have known about it?

The rumor of using defective parts was spread everywhere because they needed cash.

That company is taken over by the Chinese now.

Who was the CEO of Sejin Auto at the time?

Lee Tae Seop...

Let's cover it, Prosecutor Shin.

Even to indict a distant relative of a senior prosecutor

dozens of calls will come in.

But this guy Lee Tae Seop...

He's the older brother of the Prosecutor General nominee.

How can we catch a whale with a fishing pole?

We won't even get to visit him to investigate.

We need a stamp from the above to even see his face.

Issue a summons.

Ma'am, can you handle this case?

I'm not sure.

To the girl who liked the pork cutlet

who said she'd bring her dad there when he wakes up...

What should I tell her?

'I stopped investigation because he's a brother of someone mighty.'

I don't think I can tell her that.

Here are the people who served Chief Prosecutor all the way here.

Make sure to take care of them.

Jung Hwan...

Take them out and buy them a consolation drink.

I'll pay for the drinks.

If the table is set, we should eat together.

What if they come out of the kitchen with a knife in their hands?

Under the Lee Tae Joon's system

there is a thing called the principle of prosecutor appointment.

Hey! I'm just saying we should mix some rice to go with the dirty soup...

We started this fight to remove Yoon Ji Sook's connections in the Prosecutors' Office.

It's not a compost bucket.

I've served Chief Prosecutor for 20 years.

His left hand changed three, four times.

I changed them twice.

Watch out.

Prosecutor Choi, include the Director of Inspection in the hearing preparation committee.

Guarantee his promotion

and tell him to hand over the internal audit file on Jo Kang Jae.

Hey!

Yes.

Entertainment at a room-salon three years ago, gambling in Macao last year...

and the incident with Woomyung Construction, too.

Park Jung Hwan!

I can't take off the clothes of a family member I ate with. Where do you want to go?

There is an opening in the Western District Office.

I am Jo Kang Jae.

I won't be pushed out.

He's only gone through key positions in Public Security and Special Investigation.

He has a following, too.

If Prosecutor Jo makes a move...

[Ye Rin's Mom]

I'll go meet with the Director of Inspection.

Why?

At the Ocean Hotel restaurant, tonight at seven.

[Ye Rin's birthday]

I'm sure you're busy.

If you can't make it, call Ye Rin yourself.

She's been counting days for a month to see her dad on her birthday.

Okay.

[2010 Lawful Business Practice Award]

Dad!

My daughter!

Why?

Mom! Dad must've quit smoking!

He doesn't smell!

Dad... I guess God has a lot of free time these days.

He listens to all my prayers.

I prayed for rain because Hyun Woo's birthday party is outdoors.

And He sent a storm!

Ye Rin, no matter how much you like him

but if you get too close, Hyun Woo will feel pressured.

That's a lie.

You followed Mom around for two years when she didn't like you.

You worked at Grandma's farm all summer long without pay to charm Mom.

- Did Mom tell you that? - Yes.

I should see you often, my daughter.

You should've come see me when I was in the hospital.

Other kids had their dads come by every day.

Hospital?

There was an accident.

I called you, too.

Are you a prosecutor of Korea?

[Ye Rin's Mom]

Ye Rin was discharged only after two days.

It was a sudden unintended acceleration (SUA)... from the kindergarten bus.

Sejin Auto's model from three years ago.

There is no SUA in automobile. No country in the world recognizes it.

In the cases that claimed to be SUA...

drivers' mistakes make up 90-percent and unknown causes make up 10-percent.

If you want, I can send you the U.S. traffic safety data.

He must've stepped on the accelerator by mistake.

I secured the EDR (Event Data Recorder).

I also have a CCTV recording with the bus break light on.

It's a diesel vehicle, but its RPM went up to 6000.

I'm going to investigate... CEO Lee Tae Seop.

He's the president of some capital now?

- Mom. - Yes?

Bathroom.

Yes.

- Please take her to the bathroom. - I see. Please come this way.

Ha Gyung...

The confirmation hearing for the Prosecutor General is next week.

Assemblymen are digging into Lee Tae Joon's events from 20 years ago.

I'm sure you've done your laundry.

You're heading the hearing preparation committee.

You don't even have sure evidence...

I'm doing this because time is right.

Lee Tae Joon will become the Prosecutor General next week.

The emperor of the law, leading 2000 prosecutors

and monopolizing the rights of investigation and indictment.

Who could touch him?

I'm going to let him know.

I'm going to request a summons and a search warrant.

If either of them is denied, I'm going to tell the media and civil rights group.

I'll also summon a meeting of judges and prosecutors.

The hearing will get noisy.

- Shin Ha Gyung... - I'm curious...

The driver took on the shock himself.

Thanks to him, Ye Rin could come here tonight.

The one who protected your daughter...

Lee Tae Seop, the brother of Lee Tae Joon...

Who would you choose, Jung Hwan?

I'm sorry that I gave you a difficult problem.

You're back.

Mom, the bathroom here is bigger than our living room.

It's this big.

Speak softly. You're embarrassing me.

The cake is here.

Ye Rin, you should make a wish... to God who has a lot of time these days.

Dear God, please help Mr. Driver get better soon

and punish the misters who made bad cars.

- Amen, amen. - Amen.

Happy birthday, Ye Rin!

Please gather in the middle now.

Mom, come here.

Dad, hurry.

I'll take one now.

Smile!

One, two, three!

Shin Ha Gyung is re investigating Sejin's SUA case.

Issue an appointment to Shin Ha Gyung's boss as a hearing committee member.

We need to put our guy as her boss and stop the reinvestigation.

Check on the investigation progress and report back to me.

Yes, sir.

Who else could we trust other than you?

You have to go to the Eastern District Office and block Shin Ha Gyung...

so that he can feel at ease and enter the confirmation hearing.

I'll screen the progress while I work on the preparation committee.

Shin Ha Gyung is just a staff prosecutor.

It'll be no problem to take care of her with status.

Hey, hey... let's take an easier route.

It's being reported on SBS.

The Prosecutors' Office is investigating the SUA case of the Green Kindergarten bus.

The cause is assumed to be a defective coil in the generator.

They plan to expand the investigation to the researchers and executives at the time.

Turn it off.

Next news.

Jung Hwan...

Hand over the preparation committee to Kang Jae.

Sir...

Go to the Eastern District Office as Senior Criminal Prosecutor...

and make sure to seal the whole thing.

We should avoid rain on a feast day at least.

Jung Hwan...

Who else could I trust?

For the hearing preparation committee chair

Jo Kang Jae, Senior Prosecutor of the Special Inspection

in the Seoul Central Office was appointed.

Committee Chair Jo Kang Jae is known to be a problem solver...

The TC Bank corruption case from last year...

Yeon Jin...

Let's hit Jo Kang Jae from our side first.

My Prosecutor is so fortunate. How lucky is it that you met a detective like me?

We got a whale in a net casted for anchovies.

While I was researching on SUA cases on the Ministry of Infrastructure website...

here is an anonymous tip of a researcher at Sejin Auto from three years ago.

Stealing R&D expense right before bankrupts

defective designs and even cost cutting on the parts!

CEO Lee Tae Seop led all of them at the time!

As soon as we add this report...

Wow, the list of evidence is full now.

Prosecutor, compliments should be fast, energetic, with no hesitation!

Check the researcher's identity.

Convince him to testify at the court.

- It's anonymous. - It'll take some time, right?

I'd like to know who it is by tomorrow.

Ma'am, it took me three days to find my wife who left home.

It's anonymous! By tomorrow...

This is Shin Ha Gyung.

Let's talk. Come to my office.

I'm working. I don't have time to go to the Central Office.

I'm next door. In the Senior Prosecutor's office for the Criminal Division.

[Criminal Division 2 Senior Prosecutor Park Jung Hwan]

Reporter Kim, did you receive the email?

The fact is simple. Drunk driving.

Give it a good massage and make something out of it.

Hand over all of the investigation record on the SUA case to Prosecutor Choi today.

I have more than enough evidence for a warrant. I have no reason to transfer the case.

You had a SUA experiment at a repair shop?

It's not effective as evidence.

Request a test from the European Enhance Vehicle Safety Committee.

- Yes. - It'll take at least six months to get an answer.

For the generator coil safety issue...

request an investigation from the Vehicle Safety Department in the U.S.

Yes.

Review, test, advice, and reply...

It will take over a year.

Send a press release, Prosecutor Choi.

To reveal the cause of the SUA...

the Prosecutors' Office will coordinate with institutions in the world

and conduct a fair investigation over long-term.

Ye Rin was on that bus.

- You are Ye Rin's dad. - You are Ye Rin's mom.

A prosecutor cannot investigate a case where her family and relative members were involved.

That's the principle.

The victim cannot investigate the assailant.

And that's the basic order of the criminal law.

You're a prosecutor.

You should stick to the principles and basic rules.

Prosecutor Yoon!

I heard you're the ace of the Eastern District Office.

Have a seat.

I heard from the doctor...

that the swelling on his brain has gotten better.

But you're refusing to sign the release form?

Someone from the insurance company came by.

He said we wouldn't get much since the driver's fault was too heavy.

[Drunk-driver is a driver for kindergarten bus?]

The fact is simple. Drunk-driving.

Give it a good massage and make something out of it.

Night driving, day labor...

No one cares to know about those 10 years...

Why do people only remember this?

Since you learned a lot, why don't you teach me, ma'am?

He won't be fully recovered...

Is it right to wake him up again and put him on top of a load of debt?

Should I... still get him operated?

I found the Sejin researcher! He's in prison now...

But the one who put him there... is Prosecutor Park Jung Hwan.

Mom, people ask me if I have any family or relatives.

I get free physical exam coupons for family as a doctor, but I always return them.

Other people line up to get physical exams at our hospital using their connections.

- So this year, make sure... - I eat well and sleep well, so that's enough.

I can't stand hospitals.

Hyun Seon, can you get two?

- Recently, my body just... - Why? You don't feel well?

If you come with me, I'll get myself checked, too.

If not, I eat well and sleep well, too.

I hate hospitals, too.

Check Jung Hwan's schedule and set up an appointment.

This is how it always goes.

I always try to be nice, but he gets all the credit.

I also order the chicken that Mom wants to eat.

And I pay for it, too.

Don't even touch it, Jung Hwan.

Go easy on yourself.

You look tired. Don't skip meals, okay?

Jung Hwan...

I'm sorry, Mother. I should visit you more often.

This room is still the same.

The desk, the wall paper...

I saw the investigation report on Yang Sang Ho, researcher at Sejin.

You only indicted him for entertainment.

You halted investigation on bribery.

Happy birthday.

I hope I'm always with you for all your remaining birthdays.

You went against the basic rule when you halted investigation while suspicion remains.

You broke the principle with selective indictment.

You're a prosecutor, Jung Hwan.

You should stick to the principles and basic rules.

Will Jung Hwan and Ha Gyung get back together?

That's why she probably came all the way here, right?

Hyun Seon, break your savings account and get them a bigger apartment...

Mom!

Hey, Shin Ha Gyung!

Talk to President Lee Tae Seop.

Admit the fault of the defective auto part

and bear the recall cost.

Give enough for the driver's hospital bill, surgery cost, and living expenses.

There is no negotiation. Drop out if you're scared.

I am scared, Jung Hwan.

If I investigate the researcher's case...

your involvement will be exposed.

Maybe... I'll have to arrest you, interrogate you... and even detain you.

It'll be on the news, too.

Then what should I tell... Ye Rin?

Don't investigate.

Don't search for the researcher and don't go to the hospital.

Then it'll be over.

The driver drove tourists on weekends to pay for the bus.

He hurt his leg from construction site and took medication to drive on rainy days.

How long have you known?

[Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors' Office]

During the investigation of the SUA case

Prosecutor Shin Ha Gyung hid the driver's physical limitations.

Despite the suspicion of related effect from the medication he takes

she intentionally left out the report and interrupted the Office's investigation.

Therefore, she is suspended from her duty for one month.

Once the suspension is over

you'll be transferred to the Inspection Publishing Committee.

Of course you will have no investigation right.

Report to work at nine and go home at six.

Spend a lot of time with Ye Rin.

I feel ashamed...

that I was once your wife.

This is Shin Ha Gyung.

[Former Researcher at Sejin Auto Yang Sang Ho]

Once I wrote my post on the Ministry of Infrastructure website

Park Jung Hwan came to me two days later.

He told me to delete the post...

He said he'd find me a new job.

Once Sejin Auto was bankrupt

I saw 8000 unemployed people getting kicked out on the street.

I'm screwed up...

but this was wrong.

So you were indicted the day after you refused the offer.

And he threatened you with the bribery case if you open your mouth during the prison term.

Park Jung Hwan, he did.

Cross over Park Jung Hwan, climb over Lee Tae Seop

and to get to Lee Tae Joon, it will take at least 100 days.

And the hearing is tomorrow.

And my Prosecutor is suspended.

I'm sorry I didn't give you summer vacation.

And I'm sorry that your promotion got delayed after meeting an incompetent prosecutor.

Prosecutor Shin...

Thank you for everything, Detective Oh Dong Choon.

Excuse me...

This is Shin Ha Gyung, Minister.

I'd like to meet you in the office.

Please select me as a witness at Lee Tae Joon's confirmation hearing.

[Minister of Justice Yoon Ji Sook]

Ha Gyung!

It'll be difficult with the researcher's statement alone.

After you secure more documents and evidence...

Would it be possible?

Once Lee Tae Joon becomes the Prosecutor General

more documents and evidence... to start investigating...

Ha Gyung, for a prosecutor to take the stand as a witness at the hearing...

I know. It's a burden on the Prosecutors' Office.

If you find that I'm a burden on you or the Prosecutors' Office

please accept it any time.

If I can't live as a prosecutor, I should leave the Prosecutors' Office.

I learned it from you.

I'll also live that way.

Your liver is clean...

And your kidneys are clean, too.

With such innocent inside, how can you treat your sister like that?

Get up.

Mom, lie down please.

I'm really fine.

Hyun Seon is 32 this year, Mom.

For her to meet a good guy and get married...

it'll take at least 10, 20 years.

You should live to 100 years old and see grandkids from Hyun Seon.

Mom, lift your robe.

[Prosecutor Choi Yeon Jin]

Yeah, I only have MRI left.

I'll be back by two...

Prosecutor Shin Ha Gyung will be a witness at the confirmation hearing.

Prosecutor Shin Ha Gyung from the Eastern District Prosecutors' Office

is selected as a witness to the Prosecutor General confirmation hearing.

Members of both parties held a meeting just now

and decided her statement could be critical to determine Lee Tae Joon's ethical values

so they made the decision accordingly.

What is the content of her statement tomorrow?

Would the Nominee Lee Tae Joon be able to pass the hearing?

The eyes of the political power and the Prosecutors' Office are focused on Yeoido.

Mom, please?

It's cold at Grandma's house because the place is old.

Wear this when you go to sleep.

Make sure to pull up the blanket.

There is no internet and the TV is broken at Grandma's.

I have to stay there for a month?

I'll visit you every weekend.

Grandma asked for you because she wants to talk to you and hold you.

Okay.

[Ye Rin's Dad]

I checked the visitor's record at the prison.

Prosecutor Shin Ha Gyung met with Researcher Yang Sang Ho of Sejin Auto.

I'm sure Prosecutor Jo Kang Jae is trying to convince Chief Lee.

To make all of this your fault of over-devotion and personal grudge.

If he believes those words...

If I don't believe it...

he wont' believe it either.

Would he have any other choice?

Except for abandoning you?

[Chief Prosecutor Lee Tae Joon]

This is Park Jung Hwan.

Jung Hwan, it's nice out.

Let's have soju. Come outside.

Take it.

I lived here for over 20 years.

We got money to move my parents' graves since the land would be submerged...

I spent the money for my father's new grave for my tuition

and used the money for my mother's new grave for my older brother's tuition.

My parents are... still under the water because they let us study.

What are you doing? Drink!

Become the Prosecutor General, make it to a minister...

If I got lucky, I wanted to take the Prime Minister's seat, too.

I guess this is it.

I called Yoon Ji Sook... to meet with her later tonight.

- Sir... - There will be no hearing tomorrow.

I'll step down from the nominee...

and Yoon Ji Sook will let this case go.

Forget it.

I feel hot inside.

Let's get some rain.

Jung Hwan...

You're the only one I brought here to introduce to my parents.

I can't claim victory alone at the cost of destroying you.

Cancel the request of meeting with Minister Yoon Ji Sook now.

Jung Hwan, what are you going to do?

Don't give up anything.

I'll lose this time.

I feel hot inside, too.

Following the National Assembly Code 65-2 and the Confirmation Hearing Code 4...

we will begin the confirmation hearing for the nominee of the Prosecutor General.

Oath. As the nominee of a public office

I promise that I will follow my conscience

and only tell the truth at the confirmation hearing.

December 12th, 2014... Nominee Lee Tae Joon.

[Witness Waiting Room]

Jeez, did something happen to the divorced couple?

A document related to Ye Rin's custody was submitted to the court this morning.

Even a quick trial is requested...

I hear the trial date will be set soon.

Ye Rin is perfectly fine with her mom

so why does Prosecutor Park want to raise her suddenly?

I have no idea...

Please leave us.

I'm here to...

I secured a recording that Ye Rin was alone

at the kindergarten twice a week until you came to pick her up.

- Jung Hwan... - You're not a good mom.

- Ye Rin might have to stand at the court. - You can bring her to the court.

I'll take her on her way out.

I understand your position.

- But this is... - Why do you finally understand it now?

It wasn't your prayer that saved me seven years ago.

It was Lee Tae Joon's power.

- If you understood me then, we could... - If you admitted your fault then...

Someone who did wrong ten times is forgiven

so why do I have to take off my prosecutor robe when I made only one mistake?

The trial will go the way I want.

I have at least that much power.

Jung Hwan! Please...

The decision is in your hands.

I'm only waiting for you to decide now.

Just like when we got a divorce.

Ha Gyung...

[Park Hyun Seon]

Hyun Seon, I'll call you later.

Ha Gyung...

what should I do?

Jung Hwan... Jung Hwan has...

Witness, I believe you're investigating a case related to the Nominee.

First, tell us a summary of your investigation.

Jung Hwan... Jung Hwan has a tumor.

In his brain...

But it's too late...

What should I tell Mom?

It will be... hard for Jung Hwan to last even six months.

I feel so bad for Jung Hwan, Ha Gyung.

Witness?

Witness, please hurry up and speak!

A prosecutor...

while investigation is in progress...

While investigation is in progress... the prosecutor cannot reveal it to the public.

Are you refusing to make a statement?

I'm sorry.

I am an honorable prosecutor of Korea.

Hyun Seon, I'll stay with Mom.

Jung Hwan, you have the same condition as your father.

Jung Hwan, I'll turn on the green lights ahead of you.

Jung Hwan, I found him! I found a doctor who will operate on you.

Prosecutor, you should save me first.

Come out on bail and save me first.

Jung Hwan!
