EPISODE 4
Ms. Baek, are you all right?
Ms. Baek, are you okay?
She's totally drunk.
-Yes. -That's right!
Let's go for another round!
-Hello. -Ms. Baek.
Let's go…
Where's our second round?
Since that was our fourth round, we should go for our second!
-Oh, my. -Oh, boy.
What are you looking at?
Gosh, she really drinks a lot.
-Mr. Cheon. -Yes?
-Take good care of her. -Take good care of whom?
Jun is asking for me.
Stop lying, Mr. Sa.
The moon is glowing so beautifully.
Ah…
The moon is pretty, isn't it?
Twinkle, twinkle…
Mari?
Ms. Baek, please wake up.
Hey. Where do you live?
Where's her address?
Here it is.
Why didn't she write her address?
Geez, she is sleeping so well.
Look here. If you close your eyes, it won't recognize your face.
Open your eyes. Go like this.
Look over here.
I have to know where you live or at least your phone number.
Hey, look over here.
You have to go home. Give me your home address.
I have to contact--
Whatever. Who cares?
Why do I remember all of it?
MOM
Ms. Baek…
Yes?
Please open your eyes.
You have to open both of them to go home.
What's up?
What?
DIVORCE, LAWSUIT INHERITANCE, LITIGATION
Mari!
My goodness. My daughter's face is finally glowing.
How did you think of bringing a makeup trailer?
You're the only mom in the world who would do this.
You have to care of your skin every day from now on.
Mari, do you have to work here?
I don't think it's the type of place you should work.
Do you want me to call your grandfather?
No way. It's only for two months. I'll be fine.
Does the lawyer treat you well?
He isn't too bossy, is he?
Are you sure he's normal?
Mom, please stop.
Is he handsome?
Mr. Cheon. Mr. Cheon.
He's in deep sleep.
I borrowed Vol. 16 of Boy Detective Jaemin.
Open your eyes and go home! Open your eyes and go home.
Did you have a nightmare?
Ta-da!
I borrowed Vol. 16 of Boy Detective Jaemin.
Is it out already?
I had a hard time trying to borrow this.
-Gosh. I think I had a nightmare. -Really?
ROOM 201 YEOJIN COFFEE HOUSE
I didn't sleep well because I was so curious.
Who do you think committed the crime?
-The culprit? -Yes.
Didn't he do it?
No, he had no reason to kill him.
I'm sure he did.
Mr. Sa, in detective stories, the ones who seem like the villain
are not the ones who did it.
Aah…
Good morning.
Hello.
Hi, Mari. Did you get home okay last night?
Of course.
No, she didn't. She fell asleep here last--
What are you talking about?
I tried to wake you up, but you didn't budge.
I waited until the taxi came and just left.
I can't sleep anywhere else but in my own bed.
Mr. Cheon wouldn't even know if you carried him away in his sleep.
Aah.
This is unbelievable.
Let's say you're right.
Ah!
What is it?
Gosh, I almost saw a spoiler.
Spoiler? Did you see who did it?
Fortunately, I didn't.
Mr. Sa, can you check for me?
No, I'll read it later.
You couldn't guess who did it anyway. Check it out for me.
No way. I'm going to read it later.
Darn it. Who the heck did it? They did this last time as well.
What is it?
THE VILLAIN
-Are you talking about this? -Come on.
Ms. Baek. You really have to be careful.
If you ruin it for me, you're done here.
Stop.
I'll fix it for you.
This isn't such a big deal.
You're going to fix it for us? How?
Grant me a wish?
Fine. Think of whatever wish you'd like.
Okay.
BOY DETECTIVE JAEMIN
There. Take a look. It's all taken care of.
Okay.
Hmm?
What the heck? Did you fix it like this?
THE VILLAIN, THE VILLAIN, THE VILLAIN
Now, that's one way to fix it.
How did you come up with that?
Well, all right.
Well done, Ms. Baek. I admit that you did a good job.
You'd better keep your promise about my wish.
Of course. I'll keep my promise.
I can't believe she fixed it like this.
Gosh, how did she think of fixing it like this?
By the way, do you remember the files I asked you to organize?
Bring it to my desk later.
Ah…
Was that due today?
Yes.
Why?
You didn't do it?
No, not yet.
What did you say?
-I haven't done it yet. -What?
I haven't done it.
I see. You didn't do it.
Mari, you shouldn't be fixing things like this.
You should be doing your work.
Come to your senses.
Excuse me.
How can I help you?
What can we do for you?
I hope you can take this case.
There aren't any lawyers available.
There aren't any lawyers available?
Why aren't there any lawyers? There are over 30,000.
It's a murder case.
I'm sorry… We don't take on violent crimes like murder.
I swear he didn't do it.
I'm sorry, but it's our office policy.
He said he was sure you would help him out.
That I'd help him out? Is it someone I know?
He said that I'd help him?
Please read through this. My brother is waiting for you.
Why look at it when we aren't taking it on?
We promised not to do anything scary.
Mr. Cheon is a scaredy-cat.
I'll just see what kind of case it is.
Mr. Cheon, aren't you curious?
It seems like someone you know.
I am curious. Yes.
Then, how about this? Let's vote on it.
Vote?
Since when did we vote on things?
Since there are three of us, why don't we vote on it?
Okay. Since I work here too, let's take a vote.
Very good.
Okay. We'll take a look at the case file, yes or no?
One, two, three.
I'll look at it first.
I didn't see anything.
What's wrong? You were dying to find out only a moment ago.
Then, let me take a look…
I didn't see anything either.
Oh.
Isn't it that case? The one that happened up there.
It is. Thanks to this case,
the whole country knows of our neighborhood, Pungjin-dong.
A FORTNIGHT AGO
YEOJIN COFFEE HOUSE
Hey, where did the knife go?
POLICE
Any words to your late mother?
You claimed that the murderer is your missing father, is that true?
-Didn't they get along? -A comment, please!
Give us a statement!
Please move out of the way!
A word, please!
ONE DOLLAR LAWYER
He killed his parent.
I'm against it. No.
I'm against it too.
He didn't go to trial, but isn't it already a done deal?
He's clearly the murderer.
Look, Mr. Cheon.
You aren't considering taking this case, are you?
Look at this.
"The devil of the ages."
Even the title is horrifying.
"The murder of an artist couple.
All of the lawyers withdraw." Okay.
Let me see.
Look.
"When the public criticized them for being the devil's lawyer,
Law Firm Baek who were representing him decided to withdraw…"
LAW FIRM BAEK
-Baek? -Yes, Baek.
If a huge law firm like that would withdraw from it,
why would we take it on?
This case doesn't go with the characteristics of our office.
I think so too.
We're indebted to him.
-Indebted to him? -Yes, we are.
Don't you remember him, Mr. Sa?
What?
It's perfect.
-Wow. -Hang on, Mr. Sa.
Let me appreciate it for a moment.
Who knew you had such a talent?
It's alive. It's as if it's moving.
It's running through a meadow.
Isn't it a cow?
It was me. I'm just going to erase it.
It was a self-portrait.
I can see the agony.
Want me to do it for cheap?
Pardon?
Ms. Cho, how's your heart? Prepare your heart for this.
Ta-da!
How is it? Isn't it nice?
You do have something you're good at.
For a month's rent, I did this work for cheap.
But I was thinking about this mural…
If we drew this mural all the way up to the top,
the painting would look very majestic and…
-Spectacular! -Spectacular, don't you think?
Should we cut a deal for six months' rent?
No way!
Unbelievable.
My goodness. Geez!
The whole neighborhood looks totally different.
It looks so warm and friendly.
-It's so nice! -So, nice!
You're a lawyer, aren't you?
Yes, I am. I am… a lawyer.
I'm Cheon Jihun, attorney-at-law.
I don't know how I can thank you.
You don't have to thank me.
If I need your help later on, just help me out.
I can't believe someone who drew something like this
could do something like that.
Now that I know what he's like, even this picture gives me the creeps.
No, he didn't seem like that at all.
Didn't we say that we'd help him?
I'm sure it was just in passing.
Even if it was just in passing, it's still a verbal promise.
You didn't give him an answer, though.
He did ask you to help him out,
but you didn't say that you'd help him.
Come to think of it, I don't think--
You didn't give him an answer.
-Let's just go grab a bite. Come on. -Yes, let's go grab a bite.
I didn't answer, did I?
Mr. Cheon, you said you didn't give him an answer,
so why are you looking at that again?
Didn't you say we should go eat? Aren't we going to go eat?
Mr. Cheon.
Mr. Sa.
Why did Kim Minjae want me to represent him?
Don't you think it's rather strange?
Why is that strange?
I guess you were the only lawyer he knew.
-Don't you think so, Ms. Baek? -Exactly.
He doesn't know anyone else.
If Law Firm Baek refused to represent him, shouldn't he go to another big law firm?
Don't you think so, Ms. Baek?
Oh.
That's true.
That is kind of strange.
If he comes from a famous artist family, he must be rich.
Shouldn't he look for another famous lawyer?
He has been wrongfully charged with murder.
So, why did he ask for you?
Exactly. Ms. Baek, you are so sharp!
How are you so smart? Hmm.
All right. That's why we should go see him.
What? Who?
Kim Minjae.
What? Why?
We have to meet him
to ask him why he wants me to represent him.
Mari, can you drive?
You have a nice car.
Let's head over there.
Darn it.

Have you heard of the Pungjin-dong case? The son murdered his parents.
That case is giving me a headache.
Yes, I heard about it.
Was it already handed over to us?
The higher-ups are very interested in this case,
so I was told to do a good job.
The higher-ups are interested?
It'd be weird if they weren't. The news is all over it.

He looks like a gangster.
Yes, I thought he was arrested when I first saw him.
Yes, that's Prosecutor Park.
After he caught that gang member and was in the news…
How many more followers did he get on his social media?
Oh, I think it was over 100,000.
Over 100,000?
He got 100,000 followers over something like that?

You're the most handsome in our district prosecutor's office.
That is true.
Won't you do it?
I'll think about it.
What are you going to do when you meet him?
I'm going to ask him since I'm curious.
Mr. Cheon, there's something more to it than what I know, isn't there?
What do you mean?
You aren't meeting him simply because you're curious.
I am meeting him because I am curious.
PROPER CORRECTION
REFORMATION
It's been a long time, Mr. Kim Minjae.
This is Ms. Baek Mari, attorney-at-law.
Hello. Nice to meet you.
I am meeting you for the first time,
but it isn't nice for me.
Oh, you're right.
I'm just kidding.
It did pay off to help you out back then.
We haven't decided to take on your case yet.
But the fact that you came all the way here means there's a chance.
The rest is left to how I answer.
Isn't that right?
That's about right.
Both of your parents died. Aren't you sad?
Do I have to be sad?
It isn't both of them. Isn't it just one of them?
My father hasn't been found yet, so he's missing.
I heard you claim innocence.
It's not a claim, it's the truth.
The prosecution says I disposed of my father's dead body…
and did that to my mother,
but I was simply taking a bath.
I didn't know what was going on downstairs.
If I had known, do you think I would've taken a bath?
A bubble bath at that?
It doesn't seem normal to take a bubble bath at that hour either.
Just because it isn't normal doesn't mean it's a crime.
Then, Mr. Kim, who do you think did that to your mother?
My missing father.
The two didn't get along.
You didn't get along with them either, did you?
I was looking forward to meeting my lawyer.
But it feels like a prosecutor is here.
I'm sorry. Actually,
there's a particular reason why we came here.
There's a huge gap between Law Firm Baek and our office.
Why do you want us to represent you?
I thought they'd be good because they're big and expensive,
but they weren't so impressive.
They kept minding others.
They wanted to withdraw, so I told them to do so.
So?
I thought about hiring another law firm,
but it might appear as though I'm getting away with it using my money.
While I was searching for one, you came to my mind.
Okay, and?
Is that all?
You aren't putting much effort into it.
You may not be released if you lose the trial.
You should be more careful about hiring a lawyer.
But I'm not guilty.
Why would I worry about that?
Don't you think so?
Doesn't he seem rather creepy?
What do you mean?
Well, he doesn't act like he was wrongfully charged.
It's odd that he is so relaxed in a situation like this.
And he seems pretty clever.
Mm.
You won't take it, right?
You've got all your answers.
Let's drop by one more place. I need to figure something out.
Where are we going now? Hey.
Mr. Cheon.
Why do you want to go here?
This law firm withdrew from this case.
I have to ask them something in person.
Aah.
Did you make an appointment? You should make one first.
Sure. I'll make one when I see them.
Who makes an appointment when they see the person?
Right here.
He's driving me insane.
Ms. Baek.
What are you doing? Let's get going.
It was ruled as unconstitutional,
so please thoroughly search for related materials and instances.
Yes, sir.
A lawyer called Cheon Jihun is here to see you.
We're in a meeting, so tell him to make an appointment next time.
No.
Let him in.
Pardon?
Let's take a brief break.
Let's take a break.
It's been a long time, sir.
Yes, it has been a long time.
Pretend you don't know me.
Oh, this is my probationary employee. Ms. Baek, say hello to them.
Hello. Let me greet you. I'm Baek Mari.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you too.
Anyway, what brings you here?
I heard you withdrew from representing the Pungjin-dong case.
Yes, is there a problem with that?
I thought I'd take that case.
-Mr. Cheon. -Yes?
You're about to take on a difficult case.
You'll receive a lot of criticism too.
When Mr. Seo took on the case,
-he was called the devil's lawyer. -Well,
that's not why I quit though.
I came here to see if I could get your help.
As long as there aren't any legal issues, of course, I can.
So, why did you withdraw from the case?
-Mr. Cheon. -Yes?
Isn't that a bit rude?
You came here without an appointment.
Now, you're asking me why I withdrew from the case.
Yes, you're right.
I'm sorry. I'd like to apologize.
I accept your apology.
You know that Mr. Kim is pleading not guilty, don't you?
-Yes. -He claims that his father did it
and that his father is still alive.
Yes.
Do you think his father is still alive too, Mr. Cheon?
That's why I withdrew.
I take on the case as long as I believe he's alive,
but I couldn't believe that.
So, I couldn't figure out a way to defend Mr. Kim.
Anyway,
why are you thinking of taking on this case?
Because I believe he's alive.
Do you believe he's alive? Says who?
Says me.
The body simply hasn't been found.
It's obvious that Mr. Kim Minjae killed him and disposed of the body.
Are you a probationary judicial officer or my probationary employee?
Of course, I am your probationary employee at the moment.
You've only worked for two months, but you see him as the murderer.
What if the body is found tomorrow?
-If it's found-- -Yes.
It won't be found.
Hmm?
B, A, E, K.
How is that read in Korean?
-Baek. -What is your last name?
Baek.
Law Firm Baek.
Baek Mari.
Are you…
Well…
There are so many Baeks out there.
Who?
-Baek Jongwon. -And?
-Baek Zyoung. -And?
-Baek Yoonsik. -And?
And?
Baek Seungsu.
Oh, there's Baek Seungsu. Did you watch Stove League?
Of course.
That was really good. I don't know why they aren't making season two.
Don't you know either?
No, I don't.
You know, it looks so good every time I see it.
You can go here.

Yes, Father. What is this about?
Where are you? At the Prosecutor's Office?
Yes, I'm unpacking at the moment.
Come downstairs.
What? You're here?
Are you okay, Mr. Seo?
ROOM 401, PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE
I'm on my way.
You know about the Pungjin-dong case, don't you?
Of course.
I keep hearing about Pungjin-dong. Why is it such a hot topic?
I want you to be in charge.
Didn't you want me to be strategic in my choices?
Why would I take that case?
You can win that case no matter what. No matter what.
No matter what?
They haven't even found the weapon used in the murder nor the body.
I'm sure they'll find it soon.
Do you think I'd tell you to take a case you'd lose?
Also, Cheon Jihun took this case.
He came by with Mari a while ago.
I'm sure he had a reason for sending Mari there.
You should win that case
so that you can leave a good impression on Mr. Baek--
Detective, can you please compile the files on the Pungjin-dong case?
No, lunch isn't important right now. I'll buy you something good later.
I was still talking. Geez.
Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me right now?
How could you take this case?
What are you taking this case for?
You are driving me insane!
Let's go insane together, Mr. Sa.
Look at that.
He notified the Prosecutors' Office and copied all the related files.
You just went to see him.
Kim Minjae didn't do it.
-Why do you say that? -Why?
Ms. Baek.
Do you know what kind of person I am?
I'm the person…
who guessed the villain of Boy Detective Jaemin, Vol. 16.
You can count on me.
I figured it out. The villain is…
Ms. Baek.
Let's begin on the day before
the incident occurred.
Sorry.
According to the prosecution's records, on May 1st, at 6:00 p.m.,
in their residence,
there were the famous artist Kim Chungil who was celebrating his 58th birthday,
his wife and director of Gallery Yeongwon Yoo Heeju,
their children Kim Suyeon and Kim Minjae,
art journalist Park Jaeu,
Gallery Yeongwon's curator Ju Seowon,
and the housekeeper Han Jaesook.
There were a total of seven people there.
-Happy Birthday, Mr. Kim. -Happy Birthday, Mr. Kim.
I told you not to make a fuss about this.
If you were okay with it,
I would've invited people over for a garden party,
but you don't like to be the center of attention.
An artist speaks through his paintings. There's no need to meet up.
Mr. Park, this is how he is.
So many people are interested in his exhibition this time as well.
Hopefully, that interest will lead to the auction.
I'll support you well through my article, sir.
That isn't necessary.
According to Ms. Han Jaesook,
there wasn't any issue before,
but after Mr. Kim Minjae was told to go study abroad,
he started having issues with his parents.
Gosh, you're free now.
I'm so jealous.
Do you want to go to my place?
What?
Don't mind him. Let's go hang out.
According to his friends,
his parents were forcing him to study abroad, so he didn't want to go.
Mr. Kim Minjae took a taxi home and arrived at 00:50 a.m.
What are you doing to me?
-Let go. -Hey, Kim Minjae.
01:05 A.M., HAN JAESOOK SEES YOO HEEJU AND KIM MINJAE ARGUING
After that, it was pretty quiet.
Didn't you say the curator and the journalist stayed at the annex?
Did the two say anything in particular?
The annex was quite far from the main house,
so they didn't hear anything.
Then, what about Kim Minjae?
Well, he testified
he went upstairs to his room and fell asleep.
Then, what about Kim Suyeon? Didn't she hear them fight?
No, she didn't hear anything either as she was asleep too.
What? No one heard anything then.
How couldn't they hear anything?
-And-- -Maybe the rooms are soundproof.
Yes, they used good building materials.
I didn't sleep well since my neighbors were fighting.
-And-- -Call the police.
-Should I? -Yes.
Please pay attention. Focus.
All right. What goes on from now is important.
The prosecution thinks that between two to three o'clock,
Mr. Kim Minjae murdered his father in an unknown method…
and left the house to dispose of the body.
At that time, the CCTV at the gate
caught Mr. Kim Minjae driving away in the car.
The prosecution is focused on this statement.
How much have you found out about the movement of the car?
Its location's been confirmed up to Mt. Yongho Tunnel.
It is estimated that he stayed around there for one and a half hours.
Prosecution suspects that he has disposed of his father's body
in the vicinity of Mt. Yongho at that time.
But Kim Minjae is claiming that he came to Mt. Yongho to get some air
and fell asleep in his car, right?
Yes, but the prosecution's claim is much more convincing.
Why? There isn't even dashcam footage.
It isn't a convincing claim.
Maybe it isn't that there wasn't footage but that Mr. Kim got rid of it,
since he had to get rid of his father's body.
Well, all right.
Then, where is his father's body now, Ms. Baek?
In the vicinity of Mt. Yongho.
They'll find it in no time.
It's a large area, but it's only a matter of time.
No.
The father is alive and probably hiding somewhere.
Are you going to be like this?
Mr. Cheon, do you really believe he's alive?
Until the prosecution finds the body, we have to believe he's alive.
We're his attorneys. Don't you think so?
Yes.
Han Jaesook went to get groceries at four in the morning.
She says the house was quiet then.
And at around 5:00 a.m., Mr. Kim Minjae returns home.
KIM MINJAE
Where's Father?
Pardon? What are you talking about?
I can't find your father.
Why are you asking me about that?
Yes, you're right.
Go upstairs and get some sleep. I should try calling him.
DIRECTOR YOO HEEJU, ATELIER
The person you are calling cannot answer the phone.
How could he do such a thing as a human being?
Ms. Baek, can you give me some time to calm down?
Mr. Cheon, I'm shaking.
Kim Suyeon gets an urgent call at 5:30 a.m.
and leaves the house at 5:40 a.m.
She didn't see anything at that time either?
Or heard anything?
According to Ms. Kim Sooyeon, she couldn't see anything as it was dark.
And she says she can't hear anything from downstairs in her room.
This family never sees or hears anything. I'm sick and tired of it.
I know.
After that, Han Jaesook returns home around 6:00 a.m.
and discovers Director Yoo Heeju who was lying in the atelier.
The prosecution thinks that
Mr. Kim Minjae stabbed his mother Ms. Yoo Heeju between 5:10 to 5:30 a.m.
But Kim Minjae is claiming
he came home, washed his hands at the sink,
drank some water,
and went straight to his room, right?
What do you think, Ms. Baek?
If he really disposed of his father's dead body,
why would he leave his mother's body
and go to his bathroom
to peacefully take a bubble bath?
He tried to get rid of her body,
but Ms. Kim Suyeon got an unexpected urgent call
and left at a time that was different from usual.
And Ms. Han Jaesook was about to return home as well.
He didn't have time to get rid of her body.
On top of that…
-Tell me about the patient. -It's an abdominal stabbing.
Mom.
Suyeon.
Minjae…
-We don't have time. Take her inside. -One moment, sir!
Get me epinephrin and blood.
Yes!
Their mother Yoo Heeju's last words were,
"Suyeon, Minjae…"
The prosecution is taking note of those words.
He did it. He sure did.
"Suyeon, Minjae… stabbed me with a knife."
What do you call one's last words before they die?
A dying message?
That's it. Dying message.
That's not how you act.
Do I have to show you how to do this?
"Suyeon, Minjae…
didn't see me and walked right by me." She might've said that.
Gosh, why does a lawyer even have to act? How embarrassing.
You are the perfect person to be called the devil's lawyer.
Try saying that in court and see what people say.
What do you think people would say?
You went too far.
What I'm saying is that Director Yoo's last words can't be used
as a testimony in court.
Most importantly, we haven't even found the knife that was used.
Have you found the knife?
How did you know it was a knife?
Don't people normally use a knife?
You stabbed her, didn't you?
So, how are you going to prove Mr. Kim Minjae's innocence?
The knife hasn't been found and there's no body.
Are those your only claims?
Ms. Baek, what is the prosecution doing to prove Mr. Kim's guilt?
I have been telling you that they are searching for Artist Kim's dead body.
That's certainly an answer from someone who got 85 points.
Then, what should we do from now?
-What? -What?
-That's it.
As lawyers representing Kim Minjae,
we need to search for the living Artist Kim.
What on earth are you--
How are we supposed to find him?
That's why we should find someone who knows him well first.
Can't this car go any more quietly?
Good driving.
What are you talking about?
Isn't that Ms. Kim Suyeon?
She's calling me.
Suyeon, I'm right up front--
Mr. Cheon, I have a patient that needs urgent care.
We'll have to meet tomorrow.
Yes. Okay.
All right. See you tomorrow. Bye.
What? She's right there.
-Over here-- -Stop. It's suspicious.
She said she has an emergency patient and asked to meet tomorrow.
Duck!
Why don't you just tell everyone we're here? She's gone.
Let's see who her emergency patient is.
Okay.
Welcome.
Under whose name is the reservation?
Oh, we were in a rush so we couldn't make a reservation.
During the first week of the previous month,
we take reservations of all the guests who will come in the following month.
Can't you make an exception for today?
Ma'am, I'm terribly sorry, but would you please leave?
You're the manager, aren't you?
This is confidential, but we are actually doing an investigation.
An investigation? Are you the police?
No, I'm a private detective.
A detective?
Well…
MENU
Who is she waiting for?
I'm not sure. Let's wait and see.
By the way, it's really nice here. I've never been to a place like this.
Mr. Cheon, isn't a place like this pricey?
Mr. Sa, stop embarrassing me.
If you don't know, just go along with it like me.
What language is this?
French? Don't you know how to speak French, Ms. Baek?
Oh, I speak a little English but not French.
Let's just ask for the same thing as that table.
Okay. Ask for the same thing.
Hmm.
There's only one dinner course.
We have to pick the main dish.
There's steak, duck breast, and lamb chop. We'll go with steak.
Are we all okay with medium?
Three wine pairings.
And we'll have ice cream for dessert. Ms. Baek,
please pass that on.
Gosh, the meat is so tough these days.
-Hey, that person is… -That person.
She's the housekeeper, Han Jaesook.
RÉSUMÉ NAME: HAN JAESOOK
-What are they talking about? -Hush, Ms. Baek.
Be quiet. I can't hear a thing they're saying.
What do you think they're talking about?
What does she have to talk about with the housekeeper?
You don't think--
You don't think it's about the case, do you?
Aah.

KIM SUYEON, 26 YEARS OLD
CHEON JIHUN
We have to pick the main dish.
There's steak, duck breast, and lamb chop. We'll go with steak.
Who really is he?
Ms. Baek.
Aren't you hungry?
Do places like that usually give that little?
How do French people survive eating that little?
I'm hungry.
We should've eaten jjajangmyeon. Why did we eat that?
Are you going somewhere at this hour? Why did you change?
There's a place I want to check out.
I changed into something that was more suitable to move around in.
Okay. Well, where?
I need to see the crime scene in person.
What?
At 11 o'clock at night?
It's so dark outside. Where do you think you're going?
Are you kidding me right now? Let's get going.
From now on,
call me Detective Cheon.
Aren't we leaving?
DETECTIVE CHEON JIHUN DETECTIVE CHEON
Aren't we leaving?
Detective Cheon?
BEWARE OF DOG NO TRESPASSING
Come on. I thought you wanted to see it for yourself.
Wait. My leg is cramping up.
Mr. Cheon, aren't you coming?
It's too dark, so I'll come back later.
Take those sunglasses off.
Ah.
Shall we go in, then?
Hey.
Here.
I think the power went out.
Let's come back during the day.
I didn't expect the power to be out.
That was my mistake.
Stop messing around.
Why is he breathing like that?
Hmm.
Do you think Mr. Kim Minjae really didn't know?
If it was dark and he was drunk at the time,
we can't rule out that possibility.
Aren't you taking his side too much as his lawyer?
I think it is possible.
Ms. Kim Suyeon said she didn't hear the fighting from her room.
Let's check.
Mr. Sa.
By myself?
I don't want to.
Mari.
What?
The person who wants to check should go upstairs.
You should go, Mr. Cheon.
No.
-Why not? -I'm scared.
I'll go upstairs with Mr. Sa, okay?
-No. -Why not?
I'll be left alone.
My goodness. Fine, I'll go upstairs by myself. Are you happy?
Yes.
Do you know what time it is? Why are you so late?
It can happen. Why do you care?
You jerk!
-Mother, I-- -Ms. Baek!
Can you hear us?
It doesn't seem like she can.
Ms. Baek, tell us if you can't hear us.
How can she answer you if she can't hear you?
-Mm. -Mm.
Mr. Cheon, someone is out there!
Mr. Cheon.
Stay here.
ONE DOLLAR LAWYER
As Kim Minjae claimed,
the likelihood that his father killed his mother and disappeared is…
He isn't even your real brother. Do you believe everything he says?
He can't even kill a bug.
I'm the one who killed.
Is that Mr. Kim Minjae's true self?
-Why on earth did you do that? -Am I strange?
Something isn't quite right.
Everyone is suspicious. They're hiding something.
I think I finally solved the mystery.
