One Dollar Lawyer (One Thousand Won Lawyer / Cheonwonjjari Byeonhosa / 천원짜리 변호사)

ONE DOLLAR LAWYER

So, you're saying, you went this way like this.

You pushed it to the side.

-Yes, since they're expensive cars. -Are you kidding me?

Hey, how can the car get scratched if you push it like that?

Go straight.

He went straight, okay?

Straight?

Get it?

-So, go straight? Go straight. -Mm.

Yes.

Are you finally getting what I'm saying?

Mm, straight towards the car.

Got it.

Hey, go faster.

Faster towards the car.

Yes, you should go faster. -Faster.

Faster, faster, faster.

-(shrieking continues) -(thuds)

-(chortling) -You... crazy scumbag!

-You crazy scumbag. -Look.

Your bumper got wrecked.

Why did you tell me to go faster?

You total wacko!

-Hey, wait. -What?

The spot where Gunwoo's grandpa scratched has completely disappeared.

Are you kidding me?

What are you going to do about my car?

Today is your funeral. You're dead!

Wait.

What?

From now, this is a new case,

so it has nothing to do with Gunwoo or his grandfather.

You may speak to my lawyer from now on.

Didn't you say that you're a lawyer?

I am a lawyer,

but I'd like to leave it to another lawyer.

If you solve this, you can work with us.

What?

Mr. Cheon.

Wait, Mr. Cheon.

Wait.

Excuse me!

Hey, jerk!

Jerk?

You can't leave like this.

Why? You can't handle it?

It's not about whether I can or can't.

What do you want us to do with this mess?

-Never mind if you can't handle it. -Wait.

Will you work with us or not?

I will.

Okay, I appreciate it.

Good luck.

I will give you exactly five days.

If you can't resolve this in five days,

you're all dead.

Okay?

Yes. I understand, Executive Director Cheon Yeongbae.

Ms. Baek.

Hot chocolate.

It's very hot. Here, use this.

-Oh. -(both chuckling)

Thank you.

Do you have any idea how we can resolve this?

We will have to try something.

Sure. I will help you.

If we put our heads together, we should be able to find a way.

There are ways.

We could have checked if the paint on the scratched part is on the wagon.

That's right.

The car could have been scratched from somewhere else.

That's right.

Had we checked for that, we could have resolved it much easier.

That's right.

Thud! Crash!

You crazy scumbag!

Thud! Crash! Why, that lunatic.

Why did Mr. Cheon crash the wagon into the car?

A temper? A lawyer shouldn't get so worked up like that.

Do a good job of it.

If you solve this, you can work with us.

Mr. Sa. Is everything for 1,000 won here?

Yes, it's all 1,000 won here.

That's why people call Mr. Cheon, "One Dollar Lawyer."

-One Dollar Lawyer? -Yes.

Because his legal fee is only 1,000 won.

Does it make sense to only get paid 1,000 won for legal fees?

No, it doesn't make sense.

But what are you going to do? Mr. Cheon decided on it.

Why? Is there a particular reason for it?

You know what?

I think it was because of me.

Oh, then does that mean...

That's correct.

I was Mr. Cheon's first client.

Aah.

If you want to know more, ask Mr. Cheon later.

-Mm. -(Mujang chuckles)

Where is he? He made such a mess of things.

CHIEF COUNSEL, CHEON JIHUN

Seventeen.

Seventeen?

Okay.

If I win, you promised to take my case.

Don't worry about the trial, and focus on your game.

I asked you many times to visit me, but you never did.

I wonder why you're here all of a sudden?

Well, I have my reasons.

It looks like I won this round.

You better keep your promise.

Chairman. Stop talking and keep playing, please.

Thirty...

...seven...

is wrong, it's 38.

No? You don't have it.

I knew it.

Thirty-eight, bingo.

What, already?

Are you using a dirty trick?

What do you mean, a dirty trick? That's a bit harsh.

Look at this.

Chairman. It's me, Cheon Jihun. Attorney Cheon Jihun.

I want to play one more round.

-(alarm beeps) -Sure.

Oh, no, look at the time.

Goodness, I'm sorry. I will come back next time.

Do you have to go already?

I will come back when you move from the detention center to prison.

Watch what you say. Why don't you curse me?

My lawyers are useless. They just take my money.

You really don't want to take my case?

No. I told you I'll take the case if you beat me at Bingo.

So, practice your bingo game.

Is bingo that hard?

Why are you... so bad at bingo?

He's at a part-time job having "an audience with the emperor?"

Isn't that getting paid for visiting and spending time with someone in jail?

That's how we can pay rent.

And he was acting so virtuous.

What else does he do?

This and that.

I charge from the time I leave my office to the time I get back to my office.

You know that, don't you?

Of course.

It took two hours to commute.

I spent two hours with the client.

My fees are one million won per hour, so that's four million won.

At 10,000 won per game, with 10 wins, that's another 100,000 won.

So, it will be 4,100,000 won.

Mm.

Oddly enough, I don't want to take this money.

The chairman strongly wishes that you take his case this time.

He will pay for all the legal fees you ask.

Right.

The way to beat the case is...

Yes, what should we do?

Nothing.

He shouldn't have committed crimes in the first place.

What?

Wait a little while, babies.

Ms. Baek.

I will go buy some fish food.

Oh, okay. See you later.

CHAMYEONG GROUP CHEON YEONGBAE

PEOPLE WHO SPREAD THE CULTURE OF NOBLESSE OBLIGE

People like this always do a lot of charity work.

Mr. Seo?

Executive Director Cheon Yeongbae? Yes, I know him well.

We worked with him.

His file?

Sure,

I'll keep it a secret from your grandpa.

Okay.

Hey. Was that Mari?

Yes. She wanted the file on Executive Director Cheon.

What would that small law office have to do with him?

I thought it was a secret.

I don't keep anything from you.

It doesn't sound like anything good.

Should we help her?

No. Then I sent her there for no reason.

She will do fine on her own.

Okay.

One moment.

Dad, your son will be arriving soon.
