(Staff ensured child actors' safety in the filming of this drama.)
Has he ever been diagnosed with it?
No.
He has to admit it before we could do anything.
But he has no intention to do that.
Don't worry, and feel free to talk to me.
Well...
I think a male attorney would be better.
Because this is about fighting,
sometimes people prefer male attorneys.
But we fight with law and reasons, not power.
No, that's not what I meant.
It's more like dysfunction.
He can't even try...
to work it out.
You mean he's impotent?
Yes.
Thank you.
My wife...
wants to do it too often.
So I can't live with her anymore.
We've had a problem...
- due to that issue. - It's been a while.
It got worse and worse, and in the end,
- we crossed the line last weekend. - Let go.
Seriously.
I wasn't going to say this to keep your pride.
But don't you have a sense of shame?
What are you trying to say? Just say it.
Since when did you care about my pride?
Just say it.
You need to see a doctor.
That's not the body of a man in his 30s, but 80s...
No, even an 80-year-old man would do better than you.
You're the one who needs to see a doctor.
You.
You're a sex addict.
Are you saying I'm mental?
What the heck are you saying, impotent?
You seriously need to see an urologist.
You need to see a psychiatrist, you addict.
I want to file a complaint.
You have no child.
Instead of filing a lawsuit,
why don't you settle it?
No,
I'm going to take him to court...
I'll tell the judge about my grudges.
I have so much to say. I can't end it like this.
He doesn't admit his fault.
It's not fair for me to divorce him like this.
File a complaint, please.
File it before today.
Because I'm dumping him first.
Make sure you file it first.
Or she'll think I still have feelings for her.
(Civil Case Document)
(Written Complaint)
(Case 15: Honesty or Truth)
One more soju, please.
(Episode 15)
- Let's drink for more. - Gosh.
Have you cleared your mind yet?
I'm sorry to keep bothering you.
- Mr. Jun, is it... - Yes?
- about Ms. Han? - What?
I've been...
dealing with other people's relationships for 15 years now.
Then sometimes I can read it.
It's true that I have feelings for Ms. Han.
Okay.
But it's not about her.
I'm just getting a lot on my mind...
about my future as an attorney.
- I'm sorry. - No need to apologize.
Then...
why don't you take a few days off?
When you have a lot on your mind, it's best to take time off.
You need a break before you conclude it.
Yes. Thank you.
Ms. Cha.
When did you get here?
I knocked on the door, but I guess you didn't hear me.
Can you buy me dinner?
You should buy me dinner.
Am I still making more?
Yes.
Let's go.
(Once winter ends, spring will come.)
How come you're not having dinner with Mr. Jun today?
You haven't been spending time together with him like before.
I've been busy lately.
Must be so nice to be busy.
I'm jealous.
Come on. It's about time you're getting more cases.
You're just whining, aren't you?
I've thought about it.
There's a fatal reason...
a divorce attorney is struggling.
It's missing two most important business tactics.
Two? What are they?
Connections and regulars.
No one's like, "I got divorced here. She was really nice."
"You should try it."
And it's rare to get divorced multiple times.
You're right.
No connections and no regulars.
So it's not easy to get many cases.
I'm saying you should keep paying for our meals.
(Frozen pork belly)
- Here. - Thank you.
I'm willing to pay at any time.
By the way, has this happened to you before?
My last client today asked me...
to file the petition within an hour all of a sudden.
So I couldn't even take a breather.
Me too.
Fighting wasn't enough,
now they even battle about who files the complaint first.
I guess the clients prefer...
the term plaintiff over defendant.
I know.
They think it's unfair to be a defendant...
when they did nothing wrong.
A fight to be a plaintiff is intense.
It's so intense.
- Here's the jjigae. - Thank you.
- Enjoy. - Thank you.
(Law Firm Spring Again)
Ms. Cha, I'm the defendant?
Did you read the complaint?
The one with the issue should be the defendant.
It's not fair that I'm the defendant.
Does this mean he prepared this before I did?
He's dying to divorce me.
Whether it's a plaintiff or a defendant,
the term doesn't really affect the result.
You don't need to worry about it.
First, did you bring evidence...
on his refusal to sexual intercourse?
Yes, luckily, I found a few.
When I restored my old phone, I found a few.
Hello?
Honey, what are you doing?
Why aren't you home yet? You were off a long ago.
I'm still at work. I'll be home late.
You didn't say you were going to be late.
So I prepared dinner for you.
Is it going to take a while?
(Oyu Pharmaceutical)
Yes, go to bed first. Don't wait for me.
No, I'll wait.
- Call me when you're off. - I'll be home late.
Besides,
I'm too tired today.
How come you're always tired and come home late?
Don't you know that withholding sex in a marriage...
can be grounds for divorce?
Haven't you thought that you've been too pushy about it?
Can't we just forget about intercourse?
The sound of you taking a shower frightens me the most these days.
I have over ten recordings like this.
Then we might have a shot.
Give me the petition. All right.
(Plaintiff Choi Jin Hyuk, Attorney Han Yu Ri)
My last client today asked me...
to file the petition within an hour all of a sudden.
So I couldn't even take a breather.
(He tried his best to comply with the demands...)
The defendant's addiction to sex.
The defendant is addicted to sex...
and cannot go a day without it.
She needs treatment.
Has Yu Ri gone mad?
See?
This is just absurd!
I never asked him to have sex with me every day.
He just wants to frame me as a sex addict,
so he can end our marriage. That's why he's lying.
Don't worry.
This kind of absurd accusation won't last long.
Here.
- Yes. - Where are you?
I'm on a sales run.
Will you be coming home late again?
Yes. It's the new product we launched.
I told you I was busy at work.
I have to go if that's all you wanted to ask me.
Hey!
Do you find my call a hassle now?
You know that we're married, right?
You've been coming home late these days, so...
I'm working right now.
I'm already tired as it is.
I don't want to fight about this.
Don't you think you're being unreasonable?
I should be saying that to you.
We did it yesterday.
Do you skip eating just because you ate yesterday?
- How are they the same thing? - I know they're not the same.
We have three meals a day.
Are you saying you want to do it three times?
This is an illness. You seriously need to stop!
(Attorney at law, Han Yu Ri)
- Yes? - Ms. Han.
The opposing counsel...
from Mr. Choi Jin Hyuk's case is on the line.
She wants to speak with his attorney.
Should I put her through?
Yes. Please put her through.
Hello.
This is Han Yu Ri speaking. I'm representing Mr. Choi Jin Hyuk.
Hello. I'm representing Lee Sung Hee.
My client has received a petition.
We actually filed the petition on the same day.
Is that so?
But it seems ours was filed before yours.
Yes. Well, we can combine the two cases and proceed together.
But more importantly, it's clear both of our clients want a divorce.
So before it goes to trial, I was wondering...
if there was any possibility of reaching a settlement.
My client doesn't want to settle.
There's something I must tell you. So I'll pay you a visit tomorrow.
Pardon? You'll come here?
Yes. Sure.
She sounds like a real attorney now.
What was that?
This is so good.
- It's good, right? - Yes.
I knew you would like this place.
I really wanted to bring you here.
How long has it been since we ate together?
I know, right?
I love having meals with you.
How many weeks has it been?
Well, this is bad news then.
We won't be able to grab meals together for the time being.
What?
Why all of a sudden?
I'm taking some days off. I'll go and visit my parents.
What?
Is...
everything okay with your family? I hope nothing bad has happened.
It's nothing like that. Eat up.
- You should eat up too. - Okay.
- This is so good. - Yes.
Mr. Jun. Enjoy your break.
You can find me in the swamp of case files.
Come back quickly and help me escape the swamp.
And we can go and have a nice meal again.
(Attorney Jun Eun Ho)
(Attorney Cha Eun Kyung)
- Yes, Ms. Cha. - Where are you?
I'm in my office.
I see. I'm pretty close from Daejeong.
Do you have some time to meet me outside?
I have a meeting coming up soon.
That meeting is with me.
Why didn't you tell me...
that you were representing Ms. Lee Sung Hee?
I get that you've grown a lot as an attorney.
But you were quite wild with your petition.
Ms. Han. Don't you think you've gone too far?
Pardon?
Well,
my client is a sex addict?
She's demanding intercourse every day.
If he doesn't comply with her demands,
she accuses him of having a sexual dysfunction.
Isn't that what a sex addict does? Or how else should I describe her?
You must be saying so...
because you haven't gotten the petition I filed.
The one who needs treatment isn't my client.
It's yours.
Are you making stuff up simply because they can't be proven?
Is that how I taught you?
Ms. Cha.
I'm not making stuff up.
Mr. Choi sincerely claims that...
Ms. Lee's constant demands for intercourse...
is the cause for destroying their marriage.
And...
we can prove our claim.
You can?
I've been practising law for 17 years.
But I've never seen anyone successfully prove their case...
by using sex addiction as a strategy.
How will you prove it?
I can't tell you that.
I'm not your subordinate anymore. I'm your opposing counsel.
Anyway,
we didn't make any false accusations.
Ms. Lee might be lying to you.
What about you, Ms. Cha? Can you prove everything?
Yes. I can.
How will you prove that he has sexual dysfunction...
without a medical diagnosis?
He was never diagnosed.
He may not have sexual dysfunction.
But sexual refusal can be a factor in a divorce.
Fine. Let's say that it's difficult for both of us to prove our cases.
That's why I'm here.
To settle?
But my client doesn't want to.
Yes. My client doesn't want to settle either.
That's how they feel now.
But the court will set a date for mediation.
Then we can settle amicably...
for our clients who are still young.
I understand.
But...
it is too early to discuss settlements.
Hey, Han Yu Ri...
Ms. Han.
It will be a challenge to prove...
any matters related to sexual intercourse.
I'm simply saying...
we shouldn't encourage our clients to get worked up.
Okay. I understand.
I will call you after talking to my client,
Ms. Cha.
Gosh.
- What's that look on your face? - Jung Woo Jin.
You need to rein in your associate.
What do you mean? Did you meet with Ms. Han?
Yes. She's my opposing counsel.
I think I did a good job with her, seeing how angry you look.
So that's it. You guys are on the same side now.
Don't rub it in the face of an attorney without an associate.
Eun Kyung.
Do you want me to buy you tteokbokki?
Let's go.
- Gosh. That's funny. - Goodness.
(Railroad Diner)
So you really ordered everything?
Gosh, Eun Kyung. You changed a lot. Aren't you busy?
I'm sorry. You must be busy.
You don't have to stay with me. I'll take my time to finish it.
It's not that.
I meant that in a good way.
Hey.
Han Yu Ri is something else.
What did she say?
"What about you, Ms. Cha? Can you prove everything?"
"Can you?"
- Jung Woo Jin. - Yes.
You started dropping your honorifics again.
- I did? - See?
You did that when you asked me if I wanted tteokbokki.
You guys must think you can walk all over me now.
You guys do whatever you want when there are no ranks involved.
We're not walking all over you. We're just being friendly.
Seeing you enjoy a full meal with a lot of dishes...
makes me happy that I accepted your resignation.
The firm is super busy right now.
Mark my words.
My firm may not be as big as a major law firm like you.
But I will grow it as big as it can.
Why don't you hire an associate...
if you want to save time to sign clients?
You should hire more employees.
You can't do everything on your own.
Well, I'm thinking about it.
I don't want to hire some random people.
You know I'm quite selective about the people I keep close to me.
I don't think so.
- What? - What?
My husband is cheating on me with a female employee.
Gosh, let me talk to her. My husband has been gambling.
And we're about to lose our house because of that.
Money isn't the problem.
- Hold on. Please. - Gambling...
Please calm down.
I noticed that my mediation meeting...
and hearing were scheduled on the same date at the same time.
I was told that reaching my client,
Mr. Oh Kyu Chan, has been a problem.
- I see. - Gosh.
I know you guys are busy. Please pay more attention to that.
Come in.
Ms. Han. Shouldn't you go home? Everyone left.
I was just about to.
- Should we head out together? - Yes.
(Octopus, Bean Sprout Hangover Soup, Webfoot Octopus, Blue Crab)
It's nice to see you take a break like this.
You had to prepare for trials even on weekends.
You were so busy with paperwork.
You never had the chance to visit us.
That's because your son is very successful.
Goodness. You always talked about having a good work-life balance.
Are you sure this is the right path for you?
Be honest. Work has been too much, hasn't it?
As for my work-life balance,
it's pretty good for a first-year attorney.
As for my work-love balance,
I'm not sure yet.
Eun Ho.
When things are tough,
you can be honest and say so.
If you don't speak up, no one will know.
Don't just act cool.
Okay, Dad.
I'm usually surrounded by bickering couples.
It's nice to come down here and see you and Mom,
happily married together.
Gosh.
(Mediation Room)
You don't have children.
You agreed to the division of assets as well.
Is it absolutely necessary for you to receive a ruling?
He's the reason we're childless.
For me to get pregnant, the act had to be...
feasible.
Why are you bringing that up here?
Should I talk about how you quit your job after getting married?
Why are you bringing that up here?
Are you telling me you don't find me...
attractive anymore because I don't make money?
I see. That was why...
you couldn't get it up.
Gosh. You're embarrassing me. Why would you say that?
Fine. Think whatever you want.
Other couples have no problem getting pregnant and raising kids.
Why is it so difficult for us?
You're blaming me for everything, aren't you?
Of course! How come you won't recognize your fault in this?
Is giving birth all there's to it?
What do you mean?
Besides, why is it my fault that you can't get pregnant?
Of course, it is!
(Defendant)
I wasn't going to bring this up.
Should I mention our visit to the OB-GYN clinic?
Hey, Choi Jin Hyuk.
If it doesn't pertain to this case, let's not bring it up.
We've called this meeting to reach a settlement.
Counsels. What do you think?
I understand your point.
But my client doesn't want to settle.
Does the defendant feel the same way?
Yes. She wants to see who is legally at fault.
I'd like to ask this to the defendant.
If you were to lose the case,
would you accept the judge's ruling?
No. I will appeal.
- What about you? - Same here. I'll appeal too.
She wants to do it every day.
Who can survive that?
It looks like neither will give in,
and both will appeal and go through appellate court.
You attorneys are the winners here.
Appellate court?
That's a thing?
Will you go with me all the way?
Yes.
I'll go all the way too.
I don't care how much it costs.
You failed to reach an agreement.
Let's go to court, Ms. Cha.
Okay. I'll see you in court,
Ms. Han.
Can we...
win?
I think we need a more in-depth consultation.
Your conversation with your husband...
made me realize we hadn't talked enough.
What do you mean?
What was that about the OB-GYN?
You both flew into a rage when pregnancy came up.
That dirtbag.
The coward said it was my fault we couldn't get pregnant.
It's polycystic ovarian syndrome.
Then...
can we never get pregnant?
You can get pregnant naturally,
but if you don't want to wait,
we can induce ovulation medically.
- Think about it. - Okay.
Okay.
- Darling. - Yes?
What do you want to do?
Well...
It's best to keep things natural.
You always say that.
Who cares if we have a baby or not?
That's not important. We're more important.
Are you saying you're okay being with me and without kids?
Yes.
I can look after you as if you're my daughter too.
You're as pretty as a child.
I couldn't get pregnant, and I didn't work.
He'd have found me less attractive.
I went from loving him to death to feeling lost and empty.
Now I wonder if this was the extent...
of what he meant by love.
Did you ever tell your husband this?
No.
I wouldn't dare. It would hurt my pride.
I don't think the point of your lawsuit...
is the refusal to copulate.
What?
Are you sure your husband wants a child too?
Could you be...
the only one who wants one?
No.
He told me it was okay just to console me...
when we were told it would be hard to get pregnant naturally.
He would've been disappointed.
He stopped showing interest in me right after that.
(Plaintiff Choi Jin Hyuk, Attorney Han Yu Ri)
(Attorney Han Yu Ri)
But it is too early to discuss settlements.
Ms. Cha, are you in?
Why are you here?
To say something.
Are you here as Yu Ri or Attorney Han?
I'm here as Mr. Choi's attorney.
Please take a seat, Ms. Han.
Thank you.
I don't think this case is about being addicted to...
or refusing copulation.
You felt that too?
Did you not want children?
Why not?
Because of money.
We're a single-income household.
And my wife didn't seem to want a child urgently.
I found that a relief.
Did you ever tell your wife this?
I couldn't.
It hurt my pride way too much.
It's easy for everyone else.
Why is it so hard for me?
Is it even right for an attorney to get involved more deeply?
I came to ask you just that.
Why are you asking me?
I'm no longer your superior.
We can be more honest now.
I don't know either.
You don't know?
Should we keep proving and fighting?
For all three trials?
Is that what an attorney should do? Because the client wants it?
Or should we arrange a meeting?
We're attorneys, not couple counsellors.
Exactly.
Wouldn't that be...
being too nosy?
You decide.
What?
I don't know.
- Ms. Han? - Yes?
Let's have tteokbokki.
Okay.
(Railroad Diner)
Let's not discuss work while we eat.
- It's such a headache. - Sounds good.
I feel like I'm a loner at Daejeong.
You left,
and Mr. Jun who took me out to eat is gone too.
It's best to be alone.
So are you happy that you're alone?
Yes, I am. It's great.
If you do so well when you're alone,
why on earth did you get married?
You want to know?
- Out of the blue? - Yes.
I'm really curious.
Everyone thought I'd marry a decent person at a decent time...
in my life as if it were an assignment to be done with.
It wasn't like that.
It wasn't?
You didn't marry suddenly as if...
you were finishing a legal report?
It was sudden.
I didn't feel the need to date for a long time.
Why not?
Because time was money?
Or time was your life?
No.
I liked him that much.
What? Did I hear you right?
I liked him so much...
that I missed him when we were apart.
I'd always been content to do things on my own,
but I couldn't stand being without him.
Even if I were to go back to that time,
I'd probably be the same.
I liked him so much that nothing could replace him.
Plus, he was the one...
who gave me Jae Hui.
Why don't you be more honest?
What about me?
Are you really okay?
- Yes. - Are you sure?
Yes.
Finish your meal, Ms. Cha.
(Attorney at law, Jun Eun Ho)
Mr. Jun, are you doing okay?
(Mr. Jun, are you doing...)
Let's just work.
- Mom. - Hey.
Your classes are over?
I came by to walk home with you.
Good girl. Let's go home.
Wait.
Jae Hui.
Can I ask a weird question?
What is it?
You didn't choose...
to be born into this world.
Mom and Dad discussed and agreed...
and brought you here.
I want to know how you feel about it.
Why would you ask me that?
Just because.
I like it that I was born.
Why?
I can become someone the world needs.
That's nice.
You're just like me.
I told myself that so many times when I was a kid.
Then...
how does it feel to live alone with me?
I like it.
- Do you really? - Yes.
You're much more honest than you used to be.
You always pretended to be strong and cool around me.
I feel that we finally got closer.
Do you?
Thanks.
Thank you, Jae Hui.
Come in.
We might have overstepped boundaries...
as your attorneys by arranging this meeting.
I'd like you both to be honest, just for today at least.
It might be the last time you see each other face-to-face.
You mean...
you didn't want to have a baby?
No.
I'm not sure...
I make enough to support you and a baby.
To save up more before we got pregnant,
I delivered food and drove drunk people home after work.
I didn't know that. You should've told me.
How could I when I was the only one who was worried about money?
You quit your job fully knowing our financial situation.
I quit because the doctor said it would improve our chances.
You came back on your own.
I don't want my husband to worry.
What should I do...
in order to get pregnant?
If you can cut out overtime, drinking, and stress,
it could improve your chances.
That's why many couples get pregnant as soon as the wife quits working.
I see.
What?
That was why?
Because you thought I wanted a kid?
I thought we both desperately wanted to be parents.
But thinking that you no longer...
considered me attractive when you wanted a child...
I was sad and my pride took a hit and it drove me crazy!
It must've been a gruelling session. Well done.
You just embarked on having an honest discussion.
Go home and talk about it some more.
Then tell us what direction you wish to move in.
We're your representatives.
We'll do as you ask.
Whether that's to settle or go to court.
Ms. Cha, would you like to stay to eat?
I have an important meeting with a VIP.
Treat me if you sign a VIP client.
Okay. Bye.
(Search: Starlight)
This is the second arbitration.
(Defendant)
Both parties wish for a divorce.
Can we finalize the case?
Yes.
My client wishes for a divorce because they can't agree on...
the matter regarding children.
I'm getting older each day.
I don't think I can dream of a future...
with someone who doesn't want children.
Through the proceedings, my client...
came to the realization that he does not want children.
He reached the conclusion that they should divorce.
But I'm grateful to both attorneys...
who arranged a meeting.
Now I clearly know why we're parting,
and I feel at ease.
Okay. Thank you for your input.
- Good job. - Well done.
- Great job. - Thank you.
Sung Hee.
Shall we eat before we part ways?
Sure.
I thought they'd talk it out and reconcile.
They chose to divorce instead.
Compared to when they blamed each other without knowing why,
they'll both feel much better.
Why is it so hard for people to be honest?
The closer you are, the harder it is.
They seem to love each other a lot.
It's a shame they're splitting up.
What's up with you?
A divorce is the end of a marriage,
but it's not the end of a relationship.
Now they're free of a shackle called marriage,
financial responsibilities, and the burden of pregnancy,
this could be the start of a real relationship.
Do you see that?
Wasn't I right?
I learned yet another thing.
Each case has a unique characteristic.
Be sure to check those.
- Okay. - Got it.
Hello.
(Law Firm Daejeong Divorce Team, Case Briefing)
I'm sorry I'm late.
It's fine. You were in court.
Did it go well?
Yes. Choi Jin Hyuk's case is closed.
Nice.
The briefing's over.
I have an announcement to make.
It was important,
so I waited for you to join, Ms. Han.
Attorney Jun Eun Ho...
decided to leave the firm after today.
- What? - Just like that?
The decision was sudden,
so I apologize for springing this on you.
I'm sorry for not giving you a heads up.
- Seriously? - Is this for real?
We'll soon hire new blood,
so don't worry too much, Ms. Han.
I'll make sure you're not swamped with cases.
Sure.
Mr. Jun,
would you like to say goodbye?
I know I lacked a lot,
so thank you for having my back.
I'll keep moving forward to build a better future for myself.
Go, Daejeong. Go, Jun Eun Ho.
- Go, team. - That's right.
Go, Eun Ho.
You did some great work.
I can't believe you're leaving.
- We'll miss you. - I can't believe you, Mr. Jun.
- Don't be like that. - It's too bad.
Why the sudden decision? I hope nothing's wrong.
I appreciate how you allowed me to end my chapter on a good note.
I bet you thought...
there would only be sunny days...
after passing the bar and getting into a top firm.
But life wasn't that simple.
I'll soon turn 30, but I still feel clueless.
Thirty is when you begin your life.
You can do anything you put your mind to.
And Attorney Jun Eun Ho will do a great job.
Thank you, Mr. Jung.
Even though you quit, our bond will remain intact.
- I hope you know that. - Of course.
- Call me at any time. - Sure.
Thank you.
- Good luck. - Right.
(Jun Eun Ho)
Mr. Jun.
How could you?
You could've at least confided in me.
Sorry about that.
You were swamped with cases,
so how could I dump my worries on you?
That's ridiculous.
I confided in you whenever I needed to talk,
and now I feel terrible.
This must've given you a headache.
Nonsense.
Han Yu Ri.
Don't skip meals just because you don't have a friend to eat with.
Got it?
Are you leaving just like that?
Later, when you finally have some free time on your hands,
we'll get together.
See you.
Ms. Cha, where should I start?
Nice.
(Law Firm Spring Again)
(Attorney at law, Jun Eun Ho)
Mr. Jun, thank you for coming aboard.
Nonsense.
I won't ever forget how you made the time to come to my house.
If it hadn't been for you, I'd still be grilling clams.
- Here it is. - Is this fresh?
Please enjoy.
Thanks.
Ms. Cha?
Please enjoy while you talk.
- Please be sweet on our Eun Ho. - Goodness.
Can you please go inside?
- Thank you. - Sure.
Ms. Cha, try this. It's delicious.
Thanks.
Anyway, how are you here?
You must be busy.
Meeting with you is the most important task at hand.
Sorry? I don't get it.
Mr. Jun, come work with me.
This is an official job offer.
What?
An attorney who's quick to close cases...
and is sociable as yourself shouldn't be taking a break.
You'll take the offer, right?
Would I be of help though?
Why me?
I thought clients...
would be lining up since I'm "the" Cha Eun Kyung.
But that wasn't the case.
I need an attorney who can bring in cases.
Well,
I'll try to get you off work on time.
What do you say?
Isn't this a win-win situation?
As of now, it's only us two.
But I'll do my best to make Spring Again...
as prestigious as Daejeong.
What was with that grand speech?
Just be yourself.
Thank you for putting your trust in me.
- Let's get to work. - Sure.
(Law Firm Spring Again)
Law Firm Spring Again.
There isn't a law firm these days without a social media account.
Social media is where people look things up,
- so this is crucial. - I like it.
- I'm all done. - I see.
I love it.
Hello, Law Firm Spring Again...
is a law firm...
with two attorneys who specialize in divorce cases.
When you're met with a sudden farewell,
- we will be your reliable partner. - Mr. Jun, what's this?
I bet you haven't texted people about your law firm.
Isn't it slightly embarrassing?
Don't be like that and text them.
Text everyone you know.
I, for one, already have.
They'll come to you when they get a divorce...
and will refer to you...
when their friends or family get a divorce as well.
Is that so?
Just copy and paste what I sent you.
Here you go.
Lee Seo, would you like a snack?
- This... - Come with me.
We even have a playroom.
- Where? - Check this out.
- I see it. - There you go.
Would you like to play with this?
- Let's have some fun. - What brings you here?
You see...
Thank you.
I would've drowned without you.
You're a godsend.
Ms. Cha,
a newly opened law firm seems to be my cup of tea.
Building everything from scratch without having to follow a manual...
brings the passion out of me.
You're both so good at your jobs.
Yet, you can't tell how you feel.
- Sorry? - What?
I'm talking about you and Ms. Han.
You're still not being honest with each other.
I see you knew as well.
I feel like...
one's honesty could come off as selfish.
The 20-somethings who spent their youth buried in books...
are dense when it comes to this field.
I thought you'd know better,
but you're pretty much the same.
I didn't think anyone knew how I felt, but I was wrong.
There are so many instances...
where only those on the outside can see what's happening.
I don't want you two...
to lose out on each other just because you didn't know better.
Mr. Jun, let's grab lunch.
Oh, right.
Oh, dear.
Mr. Jung, I think the materials have been put together.
- Right. Shall we head down? - Sure.
Unbelievable.
You two sure are frustrating.
Mr. Jun, congratulations on joining Spring Again.
You're throwing me a welcome party too.
Thanks, Ms. Cha.
In a year from now,
there will be about ten people around this table.
Mr. Jung will join the party soon.
Mr. Jung too?
He's the one who referred you to me.
Can I make a referral?
- Who? - Jun Eun Ho.
Mr. Jun?
But he never works overtime.
That's because he doesn't have to.
I'll show you the cases that he has handled.
You'll see him differently.
Really?
You always get off work right when business hours end.
Before, I thought it was because you hated working overtime.
But then I got to read a list of the cases you handled.
Here you go.
(Person-in-charge: Jun Eun Ho, Method: Mediation)
I'm impressed, Eun Ho.
He's what Spring Again needs.
All of your cases ended with a mediation.
None took over a year.
My motto...
is "Divorce at rocket speed."
Everyone's happy if things are wrapped up quickly.
The clients are never exhausted,
and I don't have to work overtime.
- Divorce at rocket speed. - That's right.
I love it.
That must be Mr. Jung.
Ms. Han.
Mr. Jun?
Tell me about it. Ms. Han, come on.
We came here for dinner today...
but then heard some familiar voices.
I...
Mr. Jung, how about we eat elsewhere?
- Should we? - Yes.
- I had something to tell you. - Exactly.
What should we do, then?
Enjoy dinner together.
- Just the two of you. - But...
Sorry about this, but we have something to talk about.
What on earth is going on?
Why were you with Ms. Cha?
Ms. Cha offered me a job,
so I'm working at Spring Again.
What? Really?
Yes.
That was poor teamwork.
Teamwork? And you call that acting?
- Come on. - Unbelievable.
Working together for 14 years didn't help at all.
I usually hate to meddle in the personal life of others,
but that's what I've been doing lately.
I hate it too,
but it was frustrating to see them not talk it out.
It might not work out,
but it's better to speak your mind.
What should we have for dinner?
Again with that cheeky attitude.
Shabu-shabu.
What? No way.
Why? I know a good place.
You? Shabu-shabu?
That takes at least 40 minutes to eat. You know that, right?
Let me relax and enjoy my free time.
Jae Hui's having dinner with a friend,
so zip it and follow me.
But a relaxed person doesn't walk that fast.
Eun Kyung, wait up.
Well, I'm headed this way.
It was nice seeing you.
Right.
Same here.
Let's meet up for dinner sometimes.
Of course.
As if you needed to ask.
I'll get going, then.
Sure. Get home safely.
Right.
(Attorney at law, Han Yu Ri)
Want some ice cream?
Tiring, isn't it?
Don't let it get to you.
People like him are usually all talk.
You sounded like a senior lawyer just now.
You said it was important to get a seat at the table.
I didn't think it meant a seat at the convenience store.
Look here, Ms. Han.
We're still colleagues, you know.
I don't care if it's day or night.
Call me if you need me.
Ms. Han, are you all right? Were you hurt?
I'm good.
I don't want you to be in danger anymore.
I think we should give this a try.
Forget anything serious and the fact that we're colleagues.
Han Yu Ri and Jun Eun Ho.
Let's casually get to know each other better.
Maybe you should be honest with yourself.
Are you sure it's fine?
Jun Eun Ho!
I liked him so much that I missed him when we were apart.
I'd always been content to do things on my own,
but I couldn't stand being without him.
I'll be the one to confess this time around.
Let's give this a try.
(Law Firm Spring Again)
Ms. Cha.
Mr. Oh?
I want you to take my case.
(Good Partner)
Welcome to the Divorce Team.
We hired a new attorney,
but I don't know how to guide her.
There isn't a clear answer to that.
- It's been a while. - Sure.
In no way can you lose.
You will put Daejeong in its place.
I'll ask our best attorney to handle the case.
- You! - It seems...
like both parties have a lot to say.
Let us help you.
Rather than their attorneys, let's be their interpreters.
