PROSECUTION SERVICE
We'll begin the search and seizure...
- ...on Moon Law Firm now. - Step outside.
What is going on?
A search warrant was issued all of a sudden.
My sister...
...was framed for what Mr. Moon Sang-guk did...
...and faced an unjust death.
Nevertheless,
people only pointed their fingers at her.
Except for one man.
I'm Attorney Han Dong-soo.
Ms. Park Ji-eun was...
...murdered and then disguised as a suicide.
And it's clearly a crime...
...that Moon Sang-guk illegally raised political funds...
...and abetted murder.
Let me demand the prosecution once again...
...to follow the law and principles...
...and perform an arrest investigation on Moon Sang-guk.
THE DEATH OF MOON LAW FIRM'S FEMALE EMPLOYEE
Some are claiming that the nursing home arson case...
...was a personal revenge...
...done with power abuse.
Meanwhile, civic organizations are...
...strongly criticizing...
...the investigation without the arrest of Mr. Moon...
...for being unfairly generous...
...and demanding a thorough clarification of the truth.
Attorney Han Dong-soo is...
...the legal representative of Park's bereaved.
He was fired from Moon Law Firm...
...and brought to a disciplinary committee.
He was the first person who reported...
...a suspicion of her death to the media.
- Your uncle's cool, right? - Yes.

ECONOMIC ALLIANCE FOR 20 YEARS?
ATTORNEY HAN DONG-SOO DISCLOSES CORRUPTION
PLEASE INTRODUCE YOURSELF BRIEFLY.
KIM JAE-YEOL AND MOON SANG-GUK,
ECONOMIC ALLIANCES FOR 20 YEARS?
PUBLIC PROSECUTORS' OFFICE
Attorney Han.
Your interview was impressive.
MOON LAW FIRM
I was just going to go in case you'd be uncomfortable,
but I really wanted to tell you...
...to cheer up.
Why didn't you tell me?
I didn't want to worry you.
Don't do that from now on.
You went through a lot.
Thank you,
and from now on,
only good things will happen.
EVILIVE
EPISODE 8
We'll take a look at this one.
Try it on.
What do you think? Do you like it?
We'll take this.
Yes, sir.
Is it really okay to take this?
You should wear something fancy too.
But it's way too expensive.
I told you.
I became a legal advisor for a company.
- That company from the other day? - Yes.
We don't have to worry about money now.
Oh, honey.
You should get something nice too.
My goodness.
Hey!
What are you doing?
I just tried it on since we're here.
- Take it off! - Fine!
Oh?
BEOM-JAE
Beom-jae.
Hey, brother.
Why didn't you come in?
It's late at night.
I saw the news report.
Good work.
I feel so satisfied to think...
...of Moon Sang-guk being locked up in jail.
Mom must be...
...happy too.
Should I do some house hunting?
You should move to a new place.
Well, I should.
After having Moon Sang-guk arrested first.
Well, aren't things going just fine?
The misunderstanding has been lifted too.
You should put up a sign with your name on it!
Give me a commission raise.
Goodness.
Drive safely.
Okay, bye.
Good work.
- Be careful. - Okay.
CIVIL SERVICE OFFICE
Doesn't it feel uncomfortable?
That outfit doesn't seem to suit you.
You look good in those.
So, are you here to see...
...how far I've fallen?
Shinnam Ferry will go bankrupt.
And I'll take it over.
Don't get any stupid ideas if you want to survive.
Instead, I'll leave the others be.
Where did you get the money?
You should be broke without the gambling business.
I can't tell you that. It's my money source.
Is it Han Dong-soo's idea?
You're using him...
...to bring me and Moon Sang-guk down all together...
...and take over Shinnam Ferry and even the marine casino.
Then, like me,
you'll turn into an entrepreneur from a thug?
You think I'll be satisfied...
...with that much?
Beware of Han Dong-soo.
He's not your average guy.
I'm telling you,
he'll be above your head one day.
I put in some pocket money for you.
Have something sweet.
SW GRAND HOTEL
2008 BAR ASSOCIATION GENERAL ASSEMBLY
From the victim's perspective...
Hey, Dong-soo.
Han Dong-soo.
Let's see...
Over there.
2008 SHINNAM BAR ASSOCIATION
How's Moon Sang-guk doing these days?
Hey, he can't even come to work.
Reporters are camping out to interview him.
I'm not sure what he's up to, though.
You know he won't stay still.
Gosh.
Hello.
- Hello. - President Song Hee-kyung of Daeguk.
She's on a roll these days.
Attorney Han Dong-soo?
How nice. I've been wanting to meet you.
Why don't we grab a meal sometime?
Well, sure.
You've walked on a hard path.
I admire you as someone in the same profession.
DAEGUK LAW FIRM, PRESIDENT SONG HEE-KYUNG
I'll be waiting for your call.
Sure.
Gosh.
Unbelievable.
Look, I guess she wants to recruit you.
No way.
Why, punk?
It's plausible enough.
You're not the Han Dong-soo you think you are.
You're famous and capable. You don't lack anything.
Hey, I'm serious.
Why don't you start a law firm while you're at it?
Why do what's good for others?
Run one yourself.
You can run a law firm alone.
My goodness.
Hey, quite a lot of attorneys like you.
I can easily talk to a few of them...
...and convince them to join you.
What do you say?
Gosh, Song Hee-kyung...
CEO SEO DO-YOUNG
SHINNAM MARINE FISHERIES AGENCY
I already told the assemblyman...
...that I had no intention of meeting you.
I got so many business cards in just today.
All of them came with a bag full of cash...
...to take over Shinnam Ferry.
But I'm not that kind of person.
Don't take me for a pushover.
I told you not to let anyone in.
Send security over.
Shouldn't you get promoted?
Are you worried about me?
I know...
that money can't sway you.
There will be a personnel appointment next week.
You'll be appointed as Director of Licensing.
Hold on.
What are you talking about?
Park Choong-ho isn't the only assemblyman out there.
There are more than 15...
...just in the Maritime and Fisheries Committee.
Apparently, they all like money.
I'll be counting on you.
You're not the Han Dong-soo you used to be.
You're famous and capable.
You don't lack of anything.
MOKYOUNG DISTRIBUTION
Hello.
You must be going through a lot.
- How are things these days? - Very good.
It's all thanks to the dummy room idea.
Keep up the good work.
CLOSED TEMPORARILY
Attorney Han.
Aren't you taking customers today?
We're working nights for twice as many dummy rooms.
We haven't been open for a while.
Under whose orders?
Wrap it up.
- Pardon? - The Internet cafe.
Open it back up like usual.

COMPANY OUTLINE
Running the Internet cafe...
...isn't for sales.
We need a disguise to avoid inspections.
I believe...
...I told you before.
Do as you please.
Beware of Han Dong-soo.
He's not your average guy.
I'm telling you,
he'll be above your head one day.
COMPOSITION OF SALES
MAJOR COURSES FOR PRIVATE SHIPS
Hello.
Oh, hello.
Thank you for the picture report from the other day.
It helped handle the smuggling case on a good note.
That's good to know.
Anyway, are you going to work at this hour?
Oh, yes.
There are so many accidents and cases...
...in this tiny city.
It's so hectic these days.
Oh, dear.
- Have a good one, then. - Sure.
Look.
Do you perhaps know Seo Do-young?
I have something to investigate.
Back when he was in prison,
- you... - Right.
I visited him as his attorney.
Right.
You did.
If you don't mind, could we have a talk sometime?
Of course.
I'm not sure if I can help you in any way, though.
Thank you.
How did it go?
The chief isn't...
He's now with...
...Park Choong-ho and Seo Do-young.
And I think it will be...
...neglected because of the murder case.
Make a separate move.
Disregard what the chief says.
What? But that's...
Don't think...
I'm doing this without any measures.
There will be a global shake-up...
...from the district attorney to the police chief.
The whole thing will be reformed.
Who knows?
You might be given a chance too.
Sir.
Goodness, Attorney General Kim.
I'm sorry I couldn't help you in advance.
It was too late when I got the report.
Don't say that.
I know how busy you are.
SHINNAM SUPREME PROSECUTORS' OFFICE
It was nice when I was still a prosecutor.
There was this tight bond.
Politicians...
...don't have a sense of community.
Well, people in that field...
...even stab their allies in the back.
No one can be trusted.
Speaking of which...
I'll appoint someone new...
...in the Shinnam district attorney position.
Someone trustworthy.
So, 910 Hwagil-eup, Buk-gu...
Is this it?
Oh, it's here.
Gosh.
Darn it.
What?
Have you always been this hardworking?
Why you...
What? A new district attorney was appointed?
It's not even the season for personnel appointments.
Exactly.
I thought he was behaving himself,
but he must've frequented...
...the Supreme Prosecutors' Office.
Can you look into the relationship...
...between Moon Sang-guk and the new district attorney?
Well...
Hey, I have a meeting.
- I'll see you later - Okay.
Hello?
Hello, Oh-jae.
Gosh.
This is no joke.
I should've...
...become a gangster too.
I contacted you regarding Park Je-yi's death.
I'm Detective Ma Chul-jin of Shinnam Police Station.
DETECTIVE MA CHUL-JIN
Gosh.
As it happened,
the day you left prison,
Park Je-yi died.
And you're currently living...
...in the house she used to live in.
This is Yu-seong's house.
As you know,
a patient can't be left alone.
You're well-acquainted with Heo Yang-ho, right?
What happened?
He suddenly disappeared.
Well, isn't it your job to find people?
You were fighting over the succession of the gang...
...until he suddenly disappeared.
Yet, you aren't so interested.
No, I'm not.
Didn't you kill him?
Didn't you already check his alibi?
We meet again.
I'm Han Dong-soo, Mr. Seo's legal representative.
We live in the same apartment building.
Yes, we checked his alibi.
He did something quite unusual.
But a motive is...
...just as important as an alibi.
A person who benefits the most...
...from a victim's death.
Finding that...
...is the basics of an investigation.
Exactly my point.
If you had followed the basics,
you wouldn't have come all the way here.
The late Park Je-yi...
...was having an affair with Heo Yang-ho.
Chairman Kim Yu-seong...
...was in a common-law marriage...
...with Park Je-yi. You know that, right?
And?
A couple's quarrel...
...can lead to manslaughter sometimes.
Especially when it involves money.
Money?
Heo Yang-ho and Park Je-yi...
...embezzled company money.
If you want, I'll show you the documentation.
Gosh.
Hey, let's go.
Let's go already.
Just as the rumors say, you do a lot of good deeds.
Even defending gangsters.
Everyone...
...has the right to consult an attorney.
Right.
Let's go.
Chul-jin.
Doesn't it seem like Seo Do-young killed Heo Yang-ho?
But there is no evidence.
Only if Han Dong-soo hadn't shown up...
Darn it.
He's suspicious too, right?
Their relationship does seem more than normal.
It's said a new district attorney will be appointed.
And the detectives came at this timing.
I think Moon Sang-guk is making a move.
Let's...
...move the bodies first.
The detectives came all the way to your house.
This is too dangerous.
I'll take care of it.
What will you do and how?
I'm your accomplice.
What if everything goes south?
If we don't get Moon Sang-guk now,
all that we've done will go up in smoke.
It will affect the business too!
I apologize.
You got rid of Yang-ho?
I did.
By the way,
isn't this too risky for us?
You want to make Heo Yang-ho the killer of Park Je-yi.
And yet, you want to bury Heo Yang-ho in this house.
Hello?
It's said a new district attorney will be appointed.
I think Moon Sang-guk is making a move.
Yes.
Mr. Seo.
I heard you met Mr. Yoo.
You're good, Mr. Seo.
But you see,
is it safe to move alone?
What is it that you want to say?
Let's not complicate things and work together.
Winning over one person isn't enough, is it?
You know better, don't you?
I will see you at the office.
I will see you later in the evening.
I have an appointment at the moment...
Come to my office.
What a rude scumbag.
CEO'S OFFICE
What happened?
Detective Lee Su-ho visited Seo Do-young's house today.
And Han Dong-soo came as the legal advisor.
How funny is that?
He's still a lawyer,
so he must've gotten himself out of trouble somehow.
But he must've gotten quite thrown off.
If we corner him a little more,
it will be a matter of time before we establish...
...a connection between him and that gangster.
Don't take it lightly.
Seo Do-young is no ordinary guy.
And Han Dong-soo trusted him.
Go straight at it.
Yes, Father.
Go straight at it.
Straight...
CEO SEO DO-YOUNG
I heard it from Chief Kim.
The police came?
What's the point of me running around everywhere...
when you keep causing trouble behind my back?
"I am a gangster."
Are you advertising it?
Assemblyman Park Choong-ho.
I am a gangster.
Did you forget that?
No.
I just mean...
You won't be disappointed.
Well...
...I'll be...
...going then.
From now on, come get your money whenever I call you.
Assemblyman.
Okay.
But a motive is just as important as an alibi.
A person who benefits the most from a victim's death.
Finding that is the basics of an investigation.
Mr. Han Beom-jae.
I am Detective Ma Chul-jin from Shinnam Police Station.
I've got some questions for you.
Lee Seok is your friend, right?
Yes. What about him?
The owner of the company Lee Seok used to work for,
Park Je-yi died.
And I am investigating the case.
But I didn't work there, you see.
Do you know Seo Do-young well, then?
Not really.
Didn't you link him with Attorney Han Dong-soo?
You introduced him as his legal counsel, right?
Right. I remember now.
What does that have to do with us?
Is it wrong to be his legal counsel?
It's not wrong.
But according to Lee Seok,
Attorney Han drove for Park Je-yi.
The day before Park Je-yi died.
Dong-soo, we need to talk.
A detective came to see me.
He's investigating Park Je-yi's case.
Did you know something about it?
So why didn't you tell me?
Don't worry about it.
He's got no evidence anyway.
But there is, in the pond inside that house.
It's a matter of time before they find it...
...once the search begins.
The moment they find Heo Yang-ho's body, we're done.
Shouldn't we ask Seo Do-young to move it?
I already did.
- And? - He said he would take care of it.
Is he out of his mind? This is urgent.
Does he perhaps have a hidden agenda behind our backs?
If it can wait, let's talk about it another time.
About Heo Yang-ho's body.
You already moved it, didn't you?
Why didn't you tell me?
Why do I have to tell you that?
I need to know.
That way, if there's an issue, I can act on it.
Only three of us know...
...where Heo Yang-ho is buried.
Once they dig up the pond,
either Beom-jae or I would be...
...the one who reported it.
Isn't that why you asked us to bury him there?
Right.
That was an understandable choice.
But now...
You could tell me, you know.
Where is the body?
Where did you move it?
IT'S ME, MOON SANG-GUK. CAN WE MEET?
Let's talk about it another time.
I'm busy.
YUSEONG MIRAE CONSULTING
It's me, Moon Sang-guk.
Can we meet?
MOON SANG-GUK, THE CEO OF MOON LAW FIRM...
FILES A COMPLAINT AGAINST ATTORNEY HAN DONG-SOO
Honey.
Look at the news.
Moon Sang-guk, who's under prosecution investigation...
...for charges like arson and murder,
has filed a complaint against...
...Attorney Han Dong-soo.
Personal revenge?
Attorney Han was dismissed for misconduct.
He received disciplinary action for violating dignity.
You might say that's personal animosity.
Should one use others' deaths...
...to cover up his own mistakes?
Isn't that a deceitful behavior?
Are you implying that Attorney Han Dong-soo...
...was motivated by a personal grudge?
I couldn't say.
He might have been very close to Park Ji-eun.
What? What do you mean by that?
Please tell us more.
- Tell us more. - Tell us.
Moon Law Firm has filed a complaint...
...against Attorney Han for false dissemination...
...of information and defamation of character.
Are we meeting for the first time?
The first official meeting, I guess.
I guess we must've seen each other...
...since you used to work for Kim Yu-seong.
What do you want?
Why don't we work together?
I don't know.
I don't really care for working for someone else.
Park Choong-ho is going to be investigated...
...for election funding.
We'll push him hard to the brink...
...to strip him of his parliamentary position.
So?
You want to take me down...
...and take over Shinnam Ferry and the marine casino.
Is that enough to satisfy you?
You don't seem like the type...
...who would be satisfied with that.
But you are satisfied?
The prosecution's investigation will end this month.
Then I'll be nominated as the Minister.
You know what that means, don't you?
If you join hands with me,
you can stand above the law.
No matter what you do,
nobody will be able to touch you.
What is it that you want?
Han Dong-soo.
You're giving up the lawsuit?
My family is strongly against it.
It will only put Ji-eun on the hot seat.
I know.
But still, you're willing to bury it like this?
Don't you feel upset?
I am sorry.
By any chance, did Moon Law Firm send someone?
Did you settle?
The truth doesn't matter.
What matters is power.
The new district attorney is Mr. Moon's friend.
What will you do?
It looks like the press is helping him too.
Darn it.
Park Ji-eun's family gave up the lawsuit.
Moon Sang-guk handled it.
Let's meet Park Choong-ho.
What if we meet him?
We have to do something.
Moon Sang-guk.
He will dig into Park Je-yi case.
Then you will be in danger too.
We should connect with Park Choong-ho.
Once the new district attorney comes,
Park Choong-ho will be done for.
So?
Shouldn't we do something about it?
Let me think about it.
Moon Sang-guk.
Let's kill him.
Can you really kill him?
We can find a clean man,
get him to kill Moon Sang-guk,
and make him turn himself in. Right?
As long as we pay him enough, he will do it.
Isn't that...
...what you've always done?
You remove...
...anyone who bothers you.
The prosecution's investigation will end this month.
If you join hands with me,
you can stand above the law.
No matter what you do,
nobody will be able to touch you.
What is it that you want?
Han Dong-soo.
Moon Sang-guk.
Just get it done nicely.
Let's kill him.
You said you needed new running shoes, right?
What's wrong?
I won't play with Ma Jae-yeong anymore.
He's not my friend anymore.
Why?
We went to a stationery store the other day.
He didn't buy me anything,
but he bought a hairpin for Kim Eun-chae.
- Auntie. - Right. I'm sorry.
Jae-yeong is bad.
I will go and yell at him.
I bought him a slime the other time.
I got him two capsule toys too.
- So why... - Will you keep it down?
I'm driving.
- Park the car and come up. - Okay.
Where's Mr. Seo?
He's waiting nearby.
It takes about 30 minutes by car.
You go ahead. I will follow you.
You can ride with us.
We have to get it done as quietly as we can.
I will drive you back after.
Wh... What are you doing?
Where is this place?
You will find out soon enough.
When Moon Sang-guk arrives.
He made a request to me too.
To kill Han Dong-soo.
You met Moon Sang-guk?
Please spare my life.
You know what Moon Sang-guk is like.
Just once.
Give me just one more chance.
I will do everything I can do.
Look at you. You got what you deserved.
Don't resent me.
You dug your own grave.
Let's begin.
Sit.
I said, sit.
What are you doing?
I told you to come.
I didn't say who I was going to kill.
I thought hard about it,
but I couldn't make up my mind.
Shinnam Ferry is almost mine.
I just need to take over the marine casino.
I need a partner to take that over.
A legal advisor who will clean up the mess.
I can't decide who to pick between you two.
I told you I would give you everything.
I'll give you everything.
The prosecution investigation is over.
I will be the Minister soon.
What's the problem?
I can't become Kim Jae-yeol.
Right?
Attorney Han.
We've been good partners.
I think this might bring us closer.
You two wanted to kill each other.
Only one of you will survive.
I'll be outside.
Mr. Seo!
This is your problem.
You always miss your chance.
You weakling.
You think Seo Do-young will keep you alive...
...after you kill me?
Wait and see...
...who dies...
...and who lives.
This makes us...
...true partners.
EVILIVE
I will do everything you tell me.
That's what you want, right?
I will return everything. Let my brother go.
It's what I wanted. I chose it.
Thanks to you, I got this far.
Give me a share of the business profit.
I am not trying to catch Han Dong-soo.
We need to stop Seo Do-young...
...before things really get out of hand.
I couldn't stand what you're doing,
so I went to the police to expose you.
Let's prepare.
Seo Do-young will hit you.
There's no other choice.
