DEPICTED IN THIS DRAMA ARE ENTIRELY FICTITIOUS

CHILD ACTORS WERE FILMED SAFELY WITH CHILD PSYCHOLOGISTS AND THEIR GUARDIANS PRESENT

EPISODE 1

It's not a crime to fall in love.

Damn, that's hot!

I never wanted to take it this far.

But it was like fate.

- That's all. - "Fate"?

What the hell are we then?

- There's an expiration date to love. - What a load of bullshit.

What a load of bullshit.

THREE PETALS

I want a divorce.

DIVORCE AND ALIMONY COUNTERCLAIMS

- What a bastard. - You bastard.

- What the… - Su-jeong.

- Where are you going? - Su-jeong!

Where are you going?

You have to sue his mistress!

What…

Is it over?

Come on.

As you can see in the footage we submitted,

While Mr. Kim Jeong-nam was grabbing the plaintiff by her arm,

Ms. Lee Chun-ja was running away with the phone.

What could have been on that phone

that she ran away with it so desperately?

Circumstantial evidence isn't proof.

Let's move on then.

The two were sitting close together in that dark bar,

touching each other's hands and caressing each other's faces…

and this is according to the bar owner's statement.

What were you,

a married man, doing there?

It seems like Ms. Park Eun-ok doesn't know her husband very well.

Are you aware that my client has been studying numerology?

Numerology, my ass.

Numerology? The thing that fortune tellers practice?

- Is that what you're talking about? - Correct.

But don't people normally have a book open and jot things down when they do that?

So why was he holding her hand, caressing her face,

- and getting his hand under-- - He was reading her palm.

And her face too.

The texture of the skin plays a big part in analyzing one's physiognomy.

- What did you say? - It's okay.

You've already become a physiognomy expert yourself.

I personally believe that circumstantial evidence can be valid.

But since they're being absurd,

we'll hand this case over to the court

and I'll submit this phone as evidence

after digital forensic analysis.

Decisive evidence will save both sides so much trouble.

And we'll be demanding compensation

for psychological damage as well as for defamation,

for writing all of this off as pathological jealousy.

How do you plan on proceeding, counselor?

MEDIATOR

We'll accept the plaintiff's terms.

Attorney Shin!

Thank you so much!

- Sure. - I'm so grateful!

Please calm down.

All right.

Thank you so much.

RECENT CALLS

HYEON-U

The number cannot be reached. You will be redirected to voicemail.

You will be charged after the beep.

Hold up!

That's her, right?

Be quiet.

I'm stomped on like dirt at times

All right

I survived another day

This is me

This is me

No matter how much I shout

In the dark alleyway

The wet shadow--

Hel…

- Hello? - How did it go?

How do you think? Obviously, it went great.

Also, Mr. Jang.

Did you bug my car or something?

What is it? Did I spoil your fun again?

Yes.

Why do you always do that?

Do you have something against me?

We'll talk once I get back.

SHIN SUNG-HAN LAW OFFICE

I'm back.

Congratulations on winning your case.

You didn't have to do this, Sae-bom.

Thank you.

Great job.

ATTORNEY'S OFFICE

Damn it.

You want to be kicked, don't you?

When will you get that fixed?

Apparently, they can't even fix it.

- We have to replace it. - Replace it?

A new door would look out of place.

So how did it go?

Is it completely over?

Do you even have to ask?

My client reached a settlement thanks to her excellent attorney.

Considering how old you were when you barely passed the bar exam,

I'm not sure if I'd call you competent.

Would you mind sitting down for a second?

Come on, have a seat.

Listen.

You just don't seem to understand this

no matter how many times I explain it.

Let me explain it one last time.

All right.

I began studying at an age where my brain cells

weren't all that active.

I passed the exam triumphantly

after two years of grueling effort.

What's it called?

Believe That or Not ?

My achievement is astonishing enough to be on that show.

And you already know that,

yet you keep uttering such absurd things.

How do you think that makes me feel?

I'll state the facts.

On average, it takes four years to pass the bar exam.

Exactly.

Passing the exam in two years?

That's commendable.

And after all that hard work,

you should be taking on a broader range of cases.

Right?

This and that. Right?

Other types of cases besides divorce, right?

What?

You know the saying, "Happiness begins at home," right?

I know there are different kinds of lawsuits in this world, okay?

But I personally think those are the most important ones.

Divorce suits.

It's not like you've ever been married.

Hold on. What's with you today?

I'm under the weather, so don't provoke me.

Hey, you're the one who provoked me. Okay?

You feeling like crap doesn't give you the right to give me crap.

I'm living the life.

What is it?

Why are you so depressed this time?

I'm sad.

- About what? - Lee Seo-jin.

- My favorite DJ left her radio show. - Lee Seo-jin?

I listen to her show every morning while you watch your drama.

Pay attention, will you?

Goodness.

That's so heartbreaking.

It really is. Go.

Get back to work, will you?

I hope she doesn't make a bad decision out of despair.

She should just move to another country.

It's the one who leaked the video who should be locked up.

Why should the victim hide?

And you should--

You have a client, sir.

Okay.

I must be so sad that I'm seeing things.

She looks a lot like Lee Seo-jin.

Hello.

Holy crap, it's Lee Seo-jin!

Ms. Lee.

Are you looking me up?

Just checking the weather.

It really is me.

- Where should I sit? - Over…

Over there, please.

Sae-bom, have I told you that I'm a huge fan of Lee Seo-jin's?

Yes.

I see.

It would be inappropriate for me to ask her for an autograph, right?

Yes.

Thank you. I'll take it from here.

I'd like to speak with Attorney Shin in private.

Sorry about that.

Let's see.

I guess I should be sitting here.

I heard you specialize in divorce cases.

Yes, that's correct.

My husband wants a divorce.

So we're going to get one.

I want it to go well.

The divorce.

I see.

You must be surprised by my attitude.

Yes.

I mean, no.

In my shoes,

people would usually want to die out of shame.

Does it make you uncomfortable
