ONE DOLLAR LAWYER

Excuse me.

How can I help you?

I hope you can take this case.

It's a murder case.

I'm sorry… We… we don't take on violent cases like murder.

I swear he didn't do it.

He killed his parent.

"The devil of the ages."

-"All of the lawyers withdraw." -Baek?

If a huge law firm like that would withdraw from it,

why would we take it on?

Why did you withdraw from the case?

You know Mr. Kim is pleading not guilty, don't you?

It's not a claim, it's the truth.

Both of your parents died. Aren't you sad?

Do I have to be sad?

It isn't both of them. Isn't it just one of them?

My father hasn't been found yet, so he's missing.

Then Mr. Kim, who do you think did that to your mother?

My missing father.

The two didn't get along.

So, I couldn't figure out a way to defend Mr. Kim.

How are you going to prove Mr. Kim Minjae's innocence?

We need to search for the living Artist Kim.

-What? -Do you believe he's alive?

The father is alive and probably hiding somewhere.

How are we supposed to find him?

I need to see the crime scene in person.

I-- Ms. Baek!

Can you hear us?

It doesn't seem like she can.

Ms. Baek, tell us if you can't hear us.

How can she answer you if she can't hear you?

-Mm. -Mm.

Mr. Cheon, someone is out there!

Mr. Cheon.

Stay here.

Dad!

I'm scared.

Minhyeok?

Min… Minhyeok?

Seo Minhyeok.

Are you Jihun? Cheon Jihun?

Hey, Minhyeok. I thought you went to America to study.

What are you doing here?

I went and came back.

Hey. It's been a long time. Have you been well?

Yes, I've been well.

Mr. Cheon!

Ms. Baek, are you okay?

Are you okay?

Don't be alarmed.

I met an old friend in the middle of a murder investigation.

Say hi.

Hello, my name is Sa Mujang.

What an unusual name. My name is Seo Minhyeok.

But…

why are you here, Minhyeok?

I'm here for a field investigation.

It looks like we're on the same case.

"Why are you here, Minhyeok?"

"Why are you here, Minhyeok?" Ms. Baek, do you know him?

Yes. We've known each other since we were young.

I heard he's been close to you since the days at the Prosecutors' Office.

Jihun, back then…

-Back then? -I mean, three years ago.

-Back then, why-- -Back then, three years ago?

Back then, three years ago?

Hey. Three years ago, you--

It's fine.

Never mind, Cheon Jihun.

I mean, we met after three years and have to work on the same case.

Are you okay with that?

Mm-mm.

Anyway, you can even do a field investigation now.

You've grown a lot as a prosecutor.

And you haven't grown at all, but the same as before.

Hey, you got your hair nicely done.

Your perm looks natural.

I didn't get a perm.

-He used a curling iron. -A curling iron.

Fine, a curling iron. Why is that so important?

It turned out well.

Why? What is that face?

What, are you nervous?

Your expression gives it away.

To be honest, I am very nervous to have met you as the prosecutor.

So everyone, even though I am feeling very nervous,

we have to go down to do our investigation.

Let's end our greetings now and go back down.

He makes me very nervous.

He makes me nervous.

Let's go.

-I can't believe you met a friend here. -I know.

You startled me.

Gosh.

Then let's look around slowly.

Mr. Sa and I will take the first floor.

For the second floor, Minhyeok…

and…

Ms. Baek, come here for a second.

Ms. Baek, so…

You should go up with Minhyeok

and make a detailed mental note of what he is thinking.

Why?

What?

Are you telling me to act as a spy?

What are you doing?

Minhyeok, let's go upstairs together. Are you okay with that?

As you wish.

Mr. Cheon, have you no pride?

You should find things out on your own.

Why do you keep tending to that prosecutor?

I'm not tending to him, but I feel better doing that for him.

-Ooh. -Do you know what I'm saying?

Yeah.

Okay, let's go then.

Come in.

You saw me from here and mistook me for Artist Kim, didn't you?

Yes.

Do you really believe Artist Kim killed Director Yoo?

Mr. Cheon does. I really don't know.

What is the source of Jihun's belief?

Wait.

Are you trying to extort intel from me?

What? Intel, did you say?

Mari, it's obvious to everyone that I will win this case.

You've met Kim Minjae.

Artist Kim's body will be found soon.

When that happens…

I wonder what Jihun will say then.

To be honest, I don't know what Mr. Cheon is thinking.

He is so unpredictable.

Don't you know that better than I do?

Me?

I guess I do.

When he was with the prosecution,

I had to teach him from A to Z.

What?

What?

So everything happened right here?

Like Kim Minjae said,

if Artist Kim killed Director Yoo and ran away…

Where would Artist Kim be hiding now?

I'm not sure.

He probably went to a place only he knows of.

A place only he knows of?

Hmm.

DO NOT CROSS, UNDER INVESTIGATION

He thinks that…

Are you done looking?

Yes, roughly. How about you?

I didn't see anything special.

I will look more thoroughly from now on.

You're not hiding something you already found, are you?

Keep talking. I will leave first.

Mari, do you want a ride?

No, go ahead. I'll see you next time.

Are you sure?

Okay then. See you later.

Minhyeok, are you sure you're not hiding anything?

Why are you acting like this?

Mr. Cheon, have you no pride?

Why do you keep Minhyeok in check?

It's not that, he's just…

Mm.

Mr. Sa, you understood what I told you.

Explain to her for me.

Those two…

You know what I'm saying, right?

What is he saying?

Good work, Ms. Baek.

-Nice work. Good night. -Good night.

Mr. Cheon, go get some rest.

-Nice work today. See you later. -Good night.

This old car…

ONE DOLLAR LAWYER

I will brief the chief,

so please take care of the reporters.

Yes.

Yes, I will be in soon. Okay.

-Why did you stop walking? -We arrived at school.

EDUCATING OUR FUTURE TOGETHER

I'm sorry. Mommy was preoccupied.

What about the school supplies?

Gym uniform, slippers pouch, and clay. I brought them all.

My Yeowon is all grown up now.

I'm not grown up yet. I want to grow as much as you.

Okay. Have a good day with your friends.

Bye, Mommy.
