Kim Jung Ho.
I feel weird.
My heart is...
pounding.
Is it...
It's okay. That happens.
You're just shocked.
Right.
Can you breathe?
Yes.
Ms. Kim.
Let me...
Let me talk to him first.
Jung Ho, stay with her.
Are you okay?
It's just like you said.
I guess I can't be helped.
I just spit out my thoughts without thinking them through first.
I don't even think about how others might take that.
I just act as if I care about them.
I only meddle with their business in a rash manner.
Kim Yu Ri.
I like that you're assessing yourself objectively.
But observe the situation clearly.
I did. I'm an awful person.
He almost jumped off the apartment because of what I said.
No.
A man got up on the ledge of an apartment to end his life.
But do you really think...
it was solely because of what you told him?
Oh, no.
To be precise,
when you told him that no one lived upstairs,
you didn't consider how shocking it would have been on that guy.
And that could be seen as your fault.
But you didn't make him...
get up on the ledge.
Things he heard, reasons he had, and emotional struggles...
must have caused him to do so.
Hey, you're too old to be sobbing like this.
Age has nothing to do with the way I cry.
Kim Jung Ho.
What?
I'm hungry.
After all this?
Why are you hungry?
How are you hungry?
Seriously. Doesn't she clean?
It wasn't hunger.
It was a stomachache.
Gosh.
Is it impossible for you to clean your house?
I'm surprised that your mother lets you live like this.
Is this your first time coming to my house?
She doesn't come to my house now.
She said she might develop an anger issue every time she came.
I thought you had a stomachache.
I used the toilet earlier.
Thank you for today.
I can't even think about what could have happened...
if you weren't there.
Nothing would have happened even if I weren't there.
I get that Mr. Cho wanted to jump off the building.
But how could he have done it? He would've been reminded of you.
What is it? Is it pounding again?
I'm having...
difficulty breathing.
And it feels like my heart is in my throat.
You weren't doing anything. And it happened again?
You used to get panic attacks before. Did they come back?
I don't think so.
That's it. You're meeting up with Woo Jin tomorrow.
I'll tell him to go to your café in the morning.
Gosh. He doesn't have to do that.
Forget it. You're meeting him.
Gosh. I'm fine.
After my father passed away from the accident...
when I was in high school,
I had my first panic attack at school.
I was just sitting there.
But my heart started to pound like crazy.
It felt like I was going to die.
- Hey, what's wrong? - Yu Ri.
- Hey. - Are you all right?
- Yu Ri. - Are you okay?
- Yu Ri. - What's wrong, Yu Ri?
- Open your eyes. - What's wrong?
- Hey, breathe. - Should we go to the infirmary?
- Yu Ri. - Are you okay?
What's wrong? Are you okay?
- Hey, Jung Ho! - Breathe.
After my 1st attack, I had 1 or 2 panic attacks a month.
At first, I didn't know what was happening.
- Jung Ho ran with me on his back. - Ma'am!
She can't breathe.
- This way. - Okay.
Her blood type is O-positive.
She takes intestinal medication and supplements for vitamin D,
omega-3, and lutein. It's okay.
You're at a hospital. They will take care of you.
Breathe slowly.
But strangely, when I was at the infirmary...
or the hospital, I started to feel fine.
Are you okay?
Yes.
Sorry.
I realized what it was after a few incidents like that.
Don't worry about it.
It was a psychological condition.
(Barun Mental Health Clinic)
Here you go.
It's green tea.
Gosh. Jung Ho shouldn't have blabbed to you like that.
I did have some problems with that when I was in school.
But once I started working, the symptoms never came back.
Even if the symptoms disappear,
they can come back for some people.
I'm a psychiatrist,
but I've been taking medications...
for anxiety disorder and depression for years.
But...
the symptoms didn't feel like I was having a panic attack.
How different were they then?
Well,
I had difficulty breathing.
And my heart was pounding...
- just like having panic attacks. - Okay.
It didn't feel like I was going to die.
But Dr. Park, I don't think you need to worry about me.
I may not be as knowledgeable as you,
but I'm kind of an expert in this field.
All right. Then...
I will trust your judgement for now.
Who are they?
TWICE.
I was watching a variety show yesterday.
And they totally crashed my heart.
Crashed your heart?
Oh, that.
Like a car crash,
it's a sudden and intense encounter.
That's how I felt when I met my star.
There are all kinds of crashes these days.
Well, they're technically different.
And if you experience the same symptoms again,
don't focus on your symptoms.
Focus on three things you see.
Kim Jung Ho.
Wet hair.
A tracking suit.
And then...
take a deep breath and remember three things you hear.
The sound of the coffee.
The sound of Jung Ho's footsteps.
What are you doing?
The sound of Jung Ho's voice.
What's wrong with her?
No idea. She's acting weird.
(Episode 3: Fan-cident)
(The Law Café)
Hey! Why... Why do you keep coming here?
We signed the agreement saying we shouldn't run into each other.
According to the agreement, I can come here anytime.
Even so, your tenant is trying to run a business here.
You're inconveniencing your tenant by coming here every day.
Okay, fine. Hey, can I get a cup of coffee?
What kind? An Americano, cappuccino, vanilla latte, or...
Anything. I don't care.
Any kind of coffee, please.
So? Did you go see Woo Jin?
Yes, I did.
What did he say?
Nothing much. He said I was fine.
Right, Eun Gang. I asked you for some coffee earlier.
What kind is it today?
Kona beans that I roasted myself.
Okay!
Hey, where are you going?
I'm off to see Mr. Cho Seok Jun.
Dr. Park said he was at a hospital he knew.
Oh, no. I'm running late.
Hey, Yu Ri! When will you be back?
What's with her?
No idea.
That punk...
Hey, where's my coffee?
(Hankook Hospital)
Here, have some coffee.
So how do you like staying here?
Thanks to the doctor, I have it very easy here.
I feel more comfortable here than I do at home.
You see,
I was always sensitive to sounds.
I used to be a musician.
Really? What type of musician?
I played the guitar.
I worked as a session musician for a bunch of stuff.
They always bought me drinks after we worked.
My wife and I got a divorce because of my drinking problem.
That was when I moved to the apartment.
But while trying to quit drinking,
my sensitive ears became even more sensitive.
So I wanted to just give up everything.
But Dr. Park talked me out of it,
and I met you.
All this time,
I blamed my luck for having bad neighbours.
But I was totally wrong.
I am...
hugely indebted to the two of you.
I feel like I keep asking you for help,
but the lawsuit you mentioned the other day...
I want to do it.
Really?
But before that, I should apologize first.
Even if he wants to apologize,
I'm not sure if I want to accept it.
Right, I totally understand.
You must resent him a lot for everything he did.
I kept telling him it wasn't us, but he didn't believe me.
Every day, he was banging on the wall with that hammer.
Yi Seul had nightmares every single night.
I'm sure he was miserable,
but he made us miserable too.
Mom!
I worked hard on this.
(Information Session for Noise Lawsuit)
I want to gather some residents who are interested in it...
and hold an information session first.
What do you think?
So you'll actually file a lawsuit against Dohan Construction?
What did you say when you signed your lease?
You said you'd stay out of trouble and only offer consultations...
so I wouldn't have to worry. Did you not say that?
I was going to proceed with it quietly so you wouldn't worry.
But I changed my mind when I heard what you said yesterday.
What are you talking about?
"So let's fight together."
"You don't have to fight alone."
"You'll be compensated for everything..."
"you've had to put up with."
"We'll make sure those scumbags can't build apartments like this."
Hey, it was just something I said on the spur of the moment.
What? Who makes such an inspiring remark on the spur of the moment?
It made my heart flutter.
Why would it make your heart flutter?
You told him you'd fight with him. That made my heart flutter.
You'll have to prove that it's the construction company's fault.
Do you think that's easy?
It'll be hard, but it doesn't mean it's impossible.
If we look up foreign precedents, we'll find a way.
Even if there is a way, the building was built 16 years ago.
You'll lose, for sure.
Right, so let's build a case together.
Build what together?
Let's take it to the Supreme Court.
(Law Café)
Please, ladies.
I know it's for a good cause,
but I'm not sure if you can convince them.
That's why she needs our help.
Come on, Ms. Gimcheon. People always fall for your charisma.
I am quite charismatic indeed.
As you had requested, we went over every single novel...
involving the companies that the male protagonist...
punishes in the story.
And as for the details regarding the bid rigging...
that occurred when Dohan Construction...
landed the Dohan New City project,
the writer had to have seen the court records to write about it.
What? Are you saying...
the writer could actually be someone in Dohan Group?
Darn it.
What did the publisher say?
Even the publisher only knows his pseudonym.
They know nothing else about the writer.
Who is this lunatic?
Put some pressure on the publisher and make them take it down.
(The Fruit of Hard Work)
They kept asking me about you.
Prosecutor Kim... I mean, Mr. Kim.
You know that I'm faint-hearted.
I really struggled to act like I knew nothing.
So please stop writing this series that critiques society.
It's nothing but a headache.
Just write a cheerful story like the last time.
I don't want to hear it.
If people from Hwang and Goo come again, record them.
If they threaten me like this, I'll sue them. Tell them that.
What? It's the biggest law firm in the country.
How will you sue them?
- You're no longer a prosecutor... - Forget it. I have to go.
(Mr. Kim)
("The Punisher of Evil Corporations")
What's with all the noise?
- What is this? - Seriously.
- Goodness. - What a headache.
- Hurry. - Let's go.
Right here.
Clause 112.2 clearly states that the tenant cannot...
hold an event with more than 30 attendees...
without the landlord's permission.
I put this in just in case.
Who knew she'd even violate this?
It's only been a week... The café has only been open for a week.
What? These all came out of this bag?
Oh, my. It's nice.
I like it because it's light and holds a lot.
Hey, this coffee is so good. What is this?
It's this.
Come with me.
Hey, what are you doing here?
I just wanted to check it out.
We measured the heavy-weight floor impact noise levels...
in the building.
It was 68 decibels on average.
The noise guidelines amended in 2003 state...
that it must not exceed 50 to 58 decibels depending on the weight,
and this is way above it.
Even all the precedents tell us...
that this is way above the acceptable range.
In other words, if you feel like you're going crazy...
in your own home, it is totally understandable.
- Yes, totally! - It was driving me nuts.
- No wonder. - I told you.
It was built wrong.
Should you really fight with your neighbours because of it?
- Good point. - I'm so sick of it.
- Stop nodding. - This noise issue...
was caused by faulty construction work.
Hence, I believe...
that suing the construction company is the best solution to the problem.
You see, there are rules and regulations for everything.
So how come sound travels so easily in the building?
In 2004, they implemented the pre-certification system,
and this was the problem.
Builders just had to get a pre-construction model approved.
Then it didn't matter what kinds of materials they used.
In other words, the stupid government...
did an inspection before the building was built.
After it was built, they didn't even care.
Those jerks.
Hence, the fact that the apartments were built differently...
compared to Dohan Construction's pre-approved blueprints.
Those sly scumbags!
If we can prove that,
we'll gain the upper hand.
So? How much can we get if we sue them?
In 2009, 170 residents of an apartment complex in Namyangju...
sued Daeon Construction.
The court did order Daeon Construction...
to pay each resident from 6,000 to 14,000 dollars...
at the most.
However, if you consider all the legal expenses and time,
it really isn't a lot of money at all.
And that's only if we win.
- Gosh. - This won't work.
Hey. Kim Jung Ho.
Why is he ruining the mood?
And to be exact,
this apartment was built 16 years ago.
According to the Public Housing Management Act,
the company no longer has any obligations to repair defects.
It doesn't matter if it's been 16 years.
People still live here.
Don't people still have the right to pursue legal action?
What if word gets out about this lawsuit...
and the value of our apartments fall?
That's true. Why would we sue for 10,000 dollars?
Let's forget about this.
- Let's not do this. - You're right. We shouldn't.
- We shouldn't. - If the values of your homes...
fall due to noise issues or other problems,
you can sue the company to compensate for that as well.
Yes. That sounds nice,
but you still have to prove that the reason the prices fell...
is due to noise issues and the related lawsuit,
and that's not an easy task.
- This isn't a good idea. - This is a waste of time.
- I don't know. - If we sell our houses...
Hey. You can't come up here.
This is a breach of contract.
I didn't expect you to help, but you didn't need to mess things up.
Because you're starting something that you can't handle.
Are you sure you just don't want to take responsibility for anything?
You said so yourself.
A good lawyer helps their clients...
end things before it goes to trial.
Take a seat.
Fine.
Let's say we work together for the common good,
and those people decide to spend their money and time...
on this headache of a lawsuit because they appreciate our passion.
All they get out of it is a few thousand dollars...
after years of suffering.
Do you think that makes up for even a bit...
of the years they spent...
tiptoeing around their own homes?
So what are you suggesting we do?
Are you saying we shouldn't do anything?
I almost want to sue the government the more I look into this case.
Do you think this policy makes any sense?
Those people don't care about laws or government policies.
They just want their lives to improve.
So, are you saying...
that what I'm doing won't help improve their lives?
No. It won't at all.
Same for your life.
Is that why you sit around...
in sweatpants on your rooftop doing nothing?
Is that what's good for your life?
Yes.
Me doing nothing...
is what's best for everyone.
(Petition, Plaintiff, Plaintiff's Legal Counsel)
- Ms. Kim. - Oh, Ms. Song A.
Hello.
Hi, Yi Seul.
Hello.
You held an information session for everyone today, right?
Yes.
I tried my best,
but I don't think I convinced anyone.
I wanted to come,
but I had to stay late for work.
It's not too late.
Would you like me to share the information with you now?
Why are you...
working so hard on this case?
You're not personally affected by it.
Because I can.
This problem could be solved with me making some coffee...
and getting involved in other people's business.
I can't just do nothing.
I've never met a person like you.
I hear that often.
But while I try my best,
I sometimes doubt whether I'm helping in the best way.
It's the same with this case.
I'm not sure if a lawsuit is what's best for the residents.
I want to give...
the lawsuit a go.
To tell you the truth, I lived in that house...
with my husband when we first got married.
I want to experience...
living in my own house comfortably.
Welcome in.
We'd like to participate in the lawsuit as well.
I know people are worried about their home values falling,
but we still have to keep living here.
We want to do something.
- Yes. Me too. - Me too.
Okay.
Please look over the details carefully.
If there's anything you don't understand, let me know.
Make sure to sign the back page.
- Enjoy. - Thank you.
Criticizing something without an alternative solution is cowardly.
(Plastics, Vinyl)
Yes. I'm cowardly.
If you're going to keep breaching our contract like that, move out.
Fine. I agree that my idea might not be the best.
But I can't agree...
that doing nothing...
is better.
I'm sure.
So don't just criticize me.
Propose another solution to this problem.
Honestly, anyone can be a critic.
I can criticize you all day too, you know.
You don't have the capacity to accept my avant-garde ideas.
- It'll just be a waste of time. - What are you saying?
I'm a totally avant-garde person.
You're just a tiger moth.
What?
The reason a strange person like me could do so well in life...
is because I'm open to hearing out even annoying guys like you.
Look. I'm a mutant tiger moth.
Dohan Construction built Palacio Hills apartments,
which have over 1,000 units. They're awaiting final inspection.
Their plan is to connect it with Palacio Hotel...
and market Palacio Hills as luxury apartments.
I'm sure they won't want any bad press...
due to noise complaints or whatever reason right now.
- I agree. - However,
getting coverage for Pureun Apartments...
won't particularly help.
Why is it taking so long to build this?
- It should be much quicker. - Over here,
Hey.
Picture, please.
- Very handsome. - Okay.
Oh, my.
Therefore,
we need to get Palacio Hills into this story somehow...
in order to put Dohan...
- in the hot seat. - Hello.
Hello.
I look forward to working with you.
Of course, we'll need to approach this in a creative way...
in order to get people's attention.
Is this...
your creative idea?
See?
I told you that you wouldn't understand.
It turns out, Mr. Cho is a very impressive person.
Cho Seok Jun.
Korea's Jimi Hendrix.
He's a living legend in the guitar world.
What did I expect?
Where did you get all of this?
We borrowed it from a church over there.
Jung Ho. I can play the drums, right?
- Sure. - Hey.
Hello. Long time no see.
I'll be on bass.
You too, Doctor?
I was the best keyboard player in Cheonggang Prison.
You're all out of your mind.
You're really going to do this?
- Oh, my. - So cool.
Okay. Let's go!
Let's do this.
I'm ready.
Yes. I'm ready.
One. Two.
I'm also ready.
Let's go with no rehearsal.
The trees are disappearing from the mountains
The ocean has been abandoned
Isn't it still nice?
I can do anything I want in this world
Memories I've been fighting off come back at night
A notebook I can use as a journal and a pencil appeared by my side
I can draw this world as I like
Above the clouds in the blue sky
An eagle flies high
It tries to swallow the world of the cowboy
Gunshots ring
A victorious warrior on TV
My angel writing in my diary
The scenery that will be drawn on the canvas
The world that she'll draw
We sing
Things will get better
We remember
The days that idly passed us by
The days that stupidly passed us by
But aren't we still happy?
Aren't we together in the river that flows from our tears?
Aren't we funny?
If you were crying
We could've never seen this world again
So isn't it great?
But aren't we still happy?
Aren't we together in the river that flows from our tears?
Aren't we funny?
If you were crying
We could've never seen this world again
So isn't it great?
Did you enjoy our noise complaint concert?
We performed in an apartment complex built by "D Construction" in 2007,
an apartment complex built by "Y Construction" in 1998,
and lastly, an office building built by "G Company."
Although both apartment complexes had the same layout,
there was a clear difference between D Construction and Y Construction.
Why was the noise much worse in D Construction's apartments?
Could there be a problem with D Construction?
If so, I wonder how the new apartment complex...
of D Construction will be.
Oh, my.
The timing is terrible.
How did they know Palacio Hills is about to go under inspection?
Why is everyone out to get me these days?
Gosh.
I'll order the legal team to have the video taken down.
Okay.
Fine.
So...
if we take the video down,
will people's memories of watching the video disappear?
Hello?
Is anyone there?
The view count isn't very high yet.
It's not as if it went viral. You don't need to worry too much.
If you see one cockroach,
it means there are already many cockroaches...
infesting that house.
Don't you know that?
The fact that a video like this exists...
means that there are many other people...
who think Dohan Construction builds shabby apartments...
and are talking behind our backs.
Move, old man.
Gosh.
Director Park. You're old. You aren't quick on your feet.
You're not very intuitive either. When are you retiring again?
Anyway, if the completion of Palacio Hills...
gets delayed even by one day...
Well,
everyone here...
is going to pack your bags.
Except for me, of course.
Get out.
I said, get out.
Get out. I told you to get out.
Didn't I tell you to get out? Get out there and do something.
Go do some work.
Don't walk. Run.
Did you see? Did you see the view count?
Why are you making such a big deal out of it? Of course, it's high.
I can't believe it surpassed 500,000 in 3 days.
- It got 500,000 views? - Yes.
This is all thanks to my ability to read trends...
Mr. Cho is really amazing.
No wonder they call him a legend.
Celebrities are reposting our video. It's crazy.
So, have they contacted you?
Yes. They said they would sue me for defamation...
and obstruction of business if I don't take the video down.
That means we can move on to step two, right?
Okay. Let's do it.
Let's get started.
Good.
(Happy Mart)
What's taking so long?
- Eat up. - Thanks.
Kim Yu Ri. Let's go.
Gosh.
Gross. What are you doing?
What is this?
How did you transform into a human?
Do you have a fairy godmother or something?
I can't go there in sweatpants, you know.
What are you dressed up as today, a python?
An anaconda?
You don't know fashion. You're in sweatpants year-round.
Let's go.
How can you say I look like a snake?
(Dohan Construction)
What? What's wrong?
It's nothing. It's an anti-diarrhoeic.
You know my stomach acts up when I get nervous.
If this is too tough,
- you can still quit. - No way.
Also, you stay out of the way once we enter the building.
- Are you confident? - Look here, Prosecutor Kim.
I know everyone called me "Queen of Lost Trials"...
because I picked hard fights,
but I'm the queen of pretrial settlements.
(Dohan Construction)
You're a lawyer.
You should know better. Why did you upload such a video...
and make trouble for yourself?
I uploaded the video out of public interest,
so I most likely won't get a sentence.
If you really want to waste manpower on this...
We can argue about whether it was...
for public interest or for defamation.
Well, then. While you're at it,
please review this as well.
You had something else you wanted. I see.
Please look at it carefully.
I put so much effort into writing up this petition.
Take a look at this formal complaint as well.
I wrote it so well, didn't I?
Yes, you did.
By the way, who is he?
Right. He's one of our law firm's partners...
I'm Kim Jung Ho, the office manager.
The office manager?
What?
Ms. Kim. I see you're famous.
Oh, that.
Isn't that a great picture of me?
I look great.
So what exactly is your purpose for coming here?
Did you come here to declare war?
I'm used to working on cases like this...
for the public good,
but it must be very tiring for you.
I came because I was hoping to find a wiser solution...
before I file the petition.
My staff will do the work for me.
But you must feel the burden of being in charge.
If you lose this lawsuit,
all of the other apartments will follow our steps.
Can you imagine the losses?
It'll be astronomical.
I just got goosebumps.
There's no way we'll lose.
Is that really something...
you want to bet on? You're just a Chief Legal Officer.
Chief.
The world is changing.
It's now much easier for people...
to know what's negatively affecting their quality of life...
and how to assert their rights.
Even if we don't do this now,
some crazy lawyer...
will sue some construction company someday.
But is there a need for that to happen...
specifically to Dohan Construction?
Is there?
Were you able to talk to your higher-ups?
On the condition that you take down the video immediately,
we'll pay the residents involved 7,000 dollars for repairs,
and 520 dollars for other damages. What do you say?
Did you just say 520 dollars?
That won't do. Make it 1,000.
Are you all beggars on the street or something?
Beggars?
You're the one acting like you don't have any money.
You're not even giving people 10,000 dollars. Look who's talking?
Maybe you shouldn't have built such crummy houses in the first place.
If I sue you for damages, you'll have to pay more than 100,000.
I was going to plaster this all over the news and sue you,
but I'm giving you a chance to take responsibility.
I'm being so generous. Who are you calling a beggar?
Why are you speaking to me casually?
Well, you were so rude to me just now.
I thought you wanted to be friends.
Chief. These people are tortured to live in this expensive house,
so how can you offer a compensation of only hundreds of dollars?
There's a precedent from the Supreme Court,
and it was nowhere this much.
That case is from 2009!
There's a thing we call inflation...
Forget it.
I'll make money off YouTube and use the proceeds for the construction.
In that case,
I'll go with your suggestion...
and give 8,000 dollars per house. Is that good?
I guess so.
I'm exhausted.
You can figure out the paperwork with my staff.
Please excuse me.
I must be at another meeting.
Oh my, time flies.
Chief.
You don't have to travel far.
What is it now?
Representatives, over here.
What?
What's going on?
Let me introduce myself once again.
I'm Kim Yu Ri, the advisory counsel...
of the resident representatives of Palacio Hills Apartment.
They haven't even moved in yet, but with this apartment complex,
there are leakages, cracks,
and arbitrary constructional changes without sticking to the blueprint.
Let's go upstairs. Let's go.
This case will make your head hurt...
a little more than before.
You should've made a good house from the start.
The housing price is astronomical.
Wait.
- Great work today. - Great work.
- Goodbye. - Great job today.
- Good one. - Let's go.
- It's raining. - Let's hurry.
I feel so relieved!
You always do this when it rains.
Doesn't it feel nice?
Jeez.
Do you remember? When we were in college,
I suddenly had a panic attack on the bus,
so we got off and walked all the way home in the rain.
I'm feeling great today.
So why don't we walk home?
Don't you remember how you were sick for a week after that day?
You failed your midterms after that, so you threw a huge fit in tears.
I'm trying to relive my memories. Stop bursting my bubble.
Only I enjoyed that day, didn't I?
(Mutant Tiger Moth, Did you go home safely?)
(Mutant Tiger Moth)
(Law Café)
Look at what's inside.
- That looks amazing. - It tastes amazing.
Open up.
How is it?
It's so good.
- I'm sorry. - Come on in.
I'm sorry. I'm quite late, aren't I?
- This way, please. - Okay.
Sit down.
- We haven't started. - Really?
Thank you.
Look at that young woman. I feel so bad for her.
Why?
Stop tutting at a perfectly ordinary person.
Goodness gracious. She is...
that woman.
She lost her husband two years ago, and she's raising her kid alone.
She has to go to work,
but she has no one to look after her kid.
I always felt bad for her, running around to keep it together.
- No way. Really? - Yes.
Is everyone here?
- Yes. - Yes.
As I mentioned last time,
a lawsuit will take far too long to help you in practical ways.
So I visited Dohan Construction to come to an agreement.
Thankfully, they'll pay for soundproofing and alimony,
which will amount to 8,000 dollars per household.
- That's great. - Oh my.
- My goodness. - I can't believe it.
It may not be much,
but I visited many businesses and got their quotes.
It'll take this much to soundproof the living room...
and the master bedroom.
- Goodness. - Thank you so much.
Ms. Kim. thank you so much.
- Thank you very much. - Thank you.
- You've done well too. - Oh my.
I'm so grateful.
And Song A.
I'll ask them to put in extra care...
for Yi Seul to play as much as she wants at home.
Thank you.
Why are you crying? Come here.
And I'm sorry.
At first, I told you as if I could change everything.
- This is all I... - No, Ms. Kim.
I was comforted enough to have you step up...
and put in your effort as if this was your problem.
Thanks to you,
even if I hear something from my neighbours,
I don't think I'll get angry.
There was nothing more torturing than to live in hatred.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, Ms. Kim.
I should thank you.
Clap for them.
A smile looks good on you.
So let me get this straight.
They humiliated us all they wanted,
then got what they wanted too.
(President Lee Pyun Woong)
And this Kim Yu Ri or whatever.
Of all places,
she used to work for Law Firm Hwang and Goo?
- Yes, sir. - Darn it.
Who is this girl?
Well...
She's a lawyer affiliated with our public trust.
I'm not sure if it will be any comforting,
but she recently quit.
Why?
She wanted to open a café.
A café?
Like selling coffee?
Yes, a café.
She can go and sell coffee, then. Why is she picking a fight with us?
I'm sure she didn't have any malicious intent.
She's the type who loves to cause trouble...
and blow up her cases as a pro bono lawyer.
She's that type?
That kind of character...
needs to be corrected.
It's all because...
she's not scared of anything.
(Dohan Construction)
Why won't she pick up?
- Why are you discriminating? - Think about it.
- What is this? - You can't just do it for them.
- We're all residents there. - Exactly.
Come on, sir.
You didn't do a thing, scared of a drop in your housing price.
You could be considered a thief if you want a part of this now.
These residents wanted to find their own right,
so they signed the litigation and insisted they'll file a lawsuit.
So Dohan Construction had no choice but to come to this agreement.
Then we'll settle with them too.
- Yes. - She's right.
- Hello? - Kim Yu Ri!
Why won't you pick up?
What on earth are you doing out there?
I've been busy lately.
Anyway, the rumours have already reached you?
Don't get so cheeky anymore.
Do you know what President Lee and his men are like?
If you're going to nag me, then do it in person at the café.
That's more loving.
I have customers, so please excuse me.
What? No, wait. Yu Ri!
Where were we?
Right, the settlement.
I settled the case under a condition that I won't object again over this.
You can always find another lawyer,
but I doubt anybody will be up for it.
- Nobody? - Then...
- What do we do? - What now?
Hence,
if you need any legal counsel,
make sure you come to me.
Even if I know I'll lose the case,
I'll make sure,
and make sure again...
that I stand with you.
- Gosh, look at the meat. - Pour me one.
Everyone, do you know how amazing what we did is?
We broke down the misunderstanding, indifference, and hatred...
that stand between neighbours in this age of apathy.
Yu Ri, you always try to make a speech when you're drunk.
Se Yeon and Jin Gi.
They let us borrow their newlywed home.
Dr. Park, Eun Gang, and Joon showed us...
their hidden talent.
And our landlord. As always,
he was annoying, but he only said the right things,
so I could set things right.
Anyway, let's celebrate the successful settlement...
of Law Café’s first case. Let's make a toast.
- Cheers. - Wait.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
- Good work. - Good one.
(Law Café)
It was really crazy.
Are you sure you played the bass right?
Stop laughing.
- Let's drink. - Okay.
Let's play the Truth Game. Truth Game!
Her pronunciation is completely off.
It's time to go home.
Truth Game. I want to play.
I want to ask Eun Gang.
As far as I know, in order to get five years of sentence with arson,
it means you set a place on fire with someone inside.
So why did you set a place on fire?
Come on.
He's not telling me the truth.
Then it's my turn.
Jung Ho, be honest.
You had fun working with me this time, right?
Since when is the Truth Game just a time for you to demand...
the answer to whatever you want?
Just answer me already.
Didn't it feel great? Wasn't it fun? Wasn't it gratifying?
Never mind, that was such an easy question.
The answer is so obvious.
No, I'm changing it. I'm changing the question.
You can't do that.
Stay quiet. I'll ask him a fun question.
Hey, Jung Ho. Back then,
why did you dump me?
- What? - Hey.
Did you two date?
Tell me now. If you can't, drink.
Can we call that a real relationship?
Even if it was fake, you did dump me.
- Why did you dump me? - Then how long...
did I have to do that?
Then why did you make...
such a fake promise?
This hammered lawyer right here was dating this senior...
who was two-timing, no, even multiple-timing her.
Then she got dumped too.
I dumped him.
She got embarrassed and began to pretend like...
she was dating Jung Ho, who was always with her.
It means she used me.
Used you?
You also didn't like how other girls came onto you.
That's why you pretended to date me.
You can't belittle an agreement we both entered...
for the benefit of both parties.
Hey, you two need to stop bickering.
Aren't you sick of that?
Fine, let's call it over, Jung Ho.
Call what over?
Feigning hatred when it's the opposite.
Playing hard to get.
Let's call that over.
- Are you all right? - Yes, I'm fine.
Hey, sit down.
You'll regret this very much, Yu Ri.
No.
I'm going to use this chance to make a formal suggestion.
Jung Ho, you. Come and be with me.
I'll be good to you.
I'll give you the best treatment.
Be my part... No.
My Law Café’s...
Are you all right?
- Honey! - Se Yeon!
- Se Yeon. - Honey.
- What's wrong? - Honey, what's wrong? Are you okay?
Let me see you.
My kid is about to be born.
- Hey, are you okay? - The taxi. The taxi is here.
- It's here. - One, two, three.
Her contractions are coming every four minutes.
- We have to hurry. - Hurry!
Hang in there a little, honey.
- Go. - Get her inside.
She's so adorable.
Even if you fall for someone and your world is shaken,
if you do not start acting,
nothing begins.
I finally realized it this time.
I feel more energetic when we're together.
He's dependable in every moment.
He understands me the most.
And we both help each other live a better life.
Anyway, why aren't you going home? Why did you return here?
I wanted to finish up what I was saying earlier.
- Don't do it. - Why not?
Because I won't do it.
I didn't even ask. Why are you saying no already?
I want to work with you.
I feel reassured to have you around. It's fun to be with you.
I want you as my partner here at Law Café.
- No. - Why not?
As I said last time, it's best for everyone...
if I don't do anything.
What do you mean?
It means I hate everything, and everything is annoying.
Why do you hate everything and find everything annoying?
You. You're annoying.
I tried to avoid you and sealed a contract...
for you to stop annoying me.
Are you that slow, or do you choose to be oblivious?
So please, stop harassing me.
Darn it.
Yu Ri, keep your eyes closed.
Clear your mind.
(The Law Café)
Hey! Let go of me.
I've been getting confused.
I don't want to leave you alone, Yu Ri.
What an interesting twist of fate.
You mentioned that report to the police for child abuse.
I've seen her.
Soo A!
You don't have to change who you are.
- Hey! - Let go of me!
I don't want to be your family.
I want to be something else.
