Why Her? (Why Oh Soo Jae? / Wae Osujaeinga? / 왜 오수재인가)

This drama is fiction and the characters, names, institutions, events, organizations, and circumstances are not real.

Okay.

She didn't recognize me.

What a relief.

Episode 2

Do you remember your first day at the Judicial Training Institute?

I saw right through you then.

Jail

I will never send my client to jail

I will never send my client to jail.

That Oh Su Jae is the dumbass in this class.

That was when I used to be innocent.

Not knowing I'd be so tainted like this.

Legal Clinic Center Launch

I heard the director position at the center hasn't been filled.

I'll take that position.

That position isn't good enough a position for you to covet.

Small issues will arise that will be a hassle for you.

They say I caused Park So Yeong's death.

I was driven out because of the crappy public opinion.

I need the help of public opinion in order for me to return quickly.

Public opinion that's friendly to me.

Friendly public opinion?

I guess a Legal Clinic could be helpful.

But another professor already has an eye on that position. What do I do?

The phone is off...

Geez, where did this girl go?

Rolling Bar | WAY 25

Excuse me.

Are you sure you don't know where Na Jeong went?

I told you. She wasn't here when I got here.

What if our boss finds out? Gosh...

"Gosh"?

Did you just say "gosh" to me?

Tell Na Jeong to call me right away when she comes back.

Got it?

Who are you to ask that?

I'm her oppa. Why?

Her biological brother?

I asked if you are her biological brother.

Of course, I am her real brother.

Are there fake brothers?

Pay attention.

Jeon Na Jeong!

Na Jeong!

Jeon Na Jeong!

Green Junkyard

- Your call cannot be connected. - Geez, Jeon Na Jeong, you just let me catch you!

I'll tell ajumma about her working part-time.

Na Jeong!

Jeon Na Jeong!

Na Jeong!

Na Jeong...

Na Jeong!

Na Jeong, wake up!

Hey! Wake up!

Anyone here?!

Somebody, help!

Hey, Na Jeong, wake up!

Help! Help...

- Thank you. - Thanks to you, we ate well!

- Thanks, Hyeong. - Thank you! See you!

- Come back often! - Okay!

- I'll give you lots of food on the house! - Sounds great!

Bye! Open until just now! Let's see each other again soon.

I wonder if Chan's going to be late again tonight.

- I guess he's got a lot to study. - Hey...

Today is that day.

- You know. - Right...

Hey, Chan is coming.

Don't let it show.

Hyeong, I get so angry whenever he's like that because I feel so sorry for him.

Hey! Law school student!

He'll probably purchase Hansu Bio

and generate Assemblyman Lee In Su's presidential election fund.

As for money laundering,

Chief Han Gi Taek will be in charge of it.

And the evidence for that must be in here.

However, finding the evidence won't be easy.

Our job was to hide all that info.

We worked pretty hard on hiding it meticulously.

And I heard that Chairman Han's private funds

are personally handled by Chairman Choi Tae Gook.

Our chairman handles Chairman Han's slush funds?

Please organize everything the two of you hid.

And another thing.

Find things you both don't know about.

Those files will contain things that are beyond your imagination.

Be sure to find them.

"Things beyond my imagination."

"Find them."

TK Law Firm

Law Firm CEO Choi Ju Wan, Congratulations on your installation!

My apologies. You're restricted from entering the building, Attorney.

What are you talking about?

Oh Su Jae, Partner, On Vacation It says you're currently on vacation.

As you know, our policy is to restrict access for those on vacation.

Are you telling me that I'm on a vacation that I'm not aware of?

I'm sorry.

You should take a break. You are on vacation.

What is it, Su Jae?

I noticed you moved the Hansu Bio files to the office.

Are you here to hand them over?

I can't even go in due to a vacation I didn't even request.

The person who took my position is talking about a handover and whatnot.

It's getting more interesting.

Lift the restriction on Attorney Oh for today.

Yes, Chairman.

CEO Choi Ju Wan, congratulations!

Thank you.

Congratulations!

Thank you.

- Congratulations! - Thank you!

- CEO, congratulations! - Congratulations!

- Congratulations! - Congratulations!

Thank you! I'll put my best effort forward for TK Law Firm.

A round of applause for the law firm CEO!

I have to go pee! I have to pee!

I have to go pee! I have to pee!

I'm sorry, Attorney Oh!

Who dare— a child to the office?!

I have to pee! Pee!

But Su Jae, would I feed the porridge I made for myself to a dog?

I'd rather dump the pot.

I noticed you moved the Hansu Bio files to the office.

Are you here to hand them over?

Grandpa!

Oh, my little pup!

All right, all right. Where did you go?

- I went to the restroom. - You did?

Oh, Je Yi, let's say hi to her.

To Oh Su Jae. Say hi to Attorney Oh Su Jae.

Hello, ajumma.

I'm Choi Je Yi.

I'm starting elementary school.

I got my uniform tailored.

Je Yi, where did you go?

The files and whatnot. Hand them over to Ju Wan and rest a bit.

He'll do a good job.

Oh, my, let's go.

Je Yi, did you get your uniform?

You're all grown up, Je Yi.

Yes.

Professor, this is TA Park.

What should I do?

Your class might get canceled.

Everyone is causing a ruckus saying they won't take the class.

Why didn't you change classes?

I like Professor Oh Su Jae.

So, is this class getting canceled?

I heard the class will be canceled if less than five people show up.

You're talking about Oh Su Jae.

I'm pretty familiar with the legal circle.

That Oh Su Jae is someone who would never let this class get canceled.

Here's a message from Professor Oh Su Jae.

Oh, great!

Out of the Practical Fundamentals for Lawyers class,

whoever ranks first this semester

will get hired as an intern at TK Law Firm,

and the professor will pay out of her pocket

20+ million won, which is a year's worth of tuition.

The responsibility for collecting and submitting the facts and evidence

for the person...

What's going on with them?

You guys? Hey, guys...

Whoa...

These are rulings from various trials in the last five years.

Submit an analysis on them by the end of the semester.

The lectures will happen sporadically.

Your grades will be worth

50% from the verdict analysis and 50% from the examination.

You'll give lectures every once in a while?

So how do you analyze a verdict?

You figure it out.

What in the world?

What the heck? She doesn't tell you how?

All right, before you receive the verdicts,

I'll announce your freshman academic advisors for each group.

Group 1 is Professor Jeong Hui Yeong.

Group 2 is Professor Seo Jun Myeong, and Group 3 is Professor Hong Gi Pyo.

Group 4 is Professor Jang Jae Soon, Group 5 is Professor Park Sang Jin,

Group 6 is Professor Yang Ji Yong, Group 7 is Professor Lee Jang Hyeok,

and Group 8 is...

Professor Oh Su Jae.

At the Seojung University Legal Night Event,

you can sit with your academic advisors.

Gosh, this is crazy. Why are things getting so twisted?

Gosh, they said my four pillars (fortune) this year are good.

It's much better than last year.

You're not a freshman? I mean... you're not, sir?

Oh, me? I'm a sophomore. I got all F's, so I'm taking the classes again.

We're all in the same group, right?

Right, ma'am?

Everyone, you shouldn't hang out with me.

You'll be infected with bad student disease.

Assemblyman Lee In Su, what's your next scheduled event?

Why did you visit the National Cemetery as your first stop for the presidential campaign?

I will work hard to live up to the people's expectations.

Assemblyman Lee In Su!

No, it's okay. Let him be.
