NINE RIVERS FORUM NEW YEAR'S EVE GALA
(upbeat music)
CHANGHO: But did you know?
Most of the people who call it that
are the privileged who were born into money.
What looks happy from a distance may be tragic up close.
And that's the case here.
If you look closely,
it's rotten to the core with all sorts of crime and corruption.
MAN: Guarantee our rights!
SAVE GUCHEON IMMEDIATELY
CHANGHO: But most of the people can't tell apart good versus evil.
They're not interested in social matters at all.
Why not? Because they're too busy trying to make a living.
(upbeat music)
My goal in life is very simple.
Becoming successful
and living a long happy life with my loving family.
Social justice?
What a load of bull.
(muffled knock on door)
(serene music)
What is this?
EPISODE 1
MIHO: I said I wanted pork belly.
We can't afford to eat this crap here.
It's our wedding anniversary. The day we got married.
It's bigger crap to eat pork belly at home on such a momentous day. Right, Father?
Of course. And he's a lawyer after all.
The loan principal is 259 million won, with 7.8 million per month in interest.
Do you realize our debt grows with every passing minute, Mr. Lawyer?
CHANGHO: Open wide. It's delicious.
Good girl. That's it.
(laughs)
Just wait. You'll see my face everywhere on TV soon.
You're all talk.
(phone vibrating)
PROSECUTOR CHO DONGHWA
Hello?
Mr. Cho?
I'm Park Changho, defense counsel for the Gucheon Hospital murder.
It's important, so I'd like to speak with you in person.
Okay, I'll see you there.
You're handling the Gucheon Hospital case?
I heard big names were involved.
I've already paid the tab including tip, so make sure to stay for dessert.
- Then give me that. - Sure.
Even so, it's your anniversary. You should stay a little longer.
Congrats on marrying me, babe.
Come home early. Let's have some wine at home.
I will.
(ominous music)
(door opens)

Leaving so soon?

BIG MOUTH
7 DAYS EARLIER
(alarm blaring)
(groans)
I told you to change your alarm.
(groans loudly)
Why do you set it to that? It's so annoying.
Out of my way. Move.
(groans, grunts)
(blaring continues)
Ouch, my back. I hurt my back.
Get up, you have a busy day.
I think I'm really hurt.
Give it up. You can't fool me.
Get up.
(Miho groans)
- (groans) - (door closes)
CHANGHO: I slept well.
Miho. Gosh.
(cheerful music)
Here.
This stuff for women feel much nicer.
"Eye cream."
(gasps) Hey!
- (yelps) - Do you know how much this costs?
(mutters)
This is eye cream. How could you use up so much?
I only use this much at a time.
I only used a little.
What a waste.
(cheerful music)
(hair dryer whirring)
CHANGHO: Miho. Help me with my tie.
- What? - My tie. It's weird.
MIHO: I'm busy.
But my tie...
Something's off with this tie.
(whirring stops)
(cheerful music continues)
- What time is the trial? - At 10am.
You'd better get that money back. Don't make me turn into a prick about it.
You worry too much.
Try to find a lawyer in Korea who knows this case better than I do.
A lawyer shouldn't brag about being scammed.
Anyway, if you lose the trial,
don't even think about coming into my house. Got that?
What's this?
Hey, why is this your house? It's mine.
What were you doing while he was getting scammed, Dad?
What an office manager.
We'll be late. Let's go.
(mumbles)
CHANGHO: I can't even talk to Miho anymore.
She's always under the weather.
MIHO'S FATHER: Try putting yourself in her shoes.
She worked to death and saved up,
only to have you take it without her knowledge and get scammed.
Wouldn't you be pissed off?
MIHO'S FATHER: When I was a detective,
I even saw a murder case between spouses over stuff like this.
Don't say something so frightening.
Hey.
You greased up to Judge Yoon, right?
It cost a lot.
You absolutely cannot tell Miho that I borrowed from a loan shark.
It'll be fine if we win the case.
MIHO'S FATHER: Let's just win first.
Let's do this.
(crowd murmuring)
(whispers) Hey.
Were they always the defendant's attorneys?
Right? It looks like they got a new law firm.
OFFICER: All rise.
Please be seated.
MIHO'S FATHER (whispers): Hey.
That's not Judge Yoon. What's going on?
I don't know.
JUDGE: Case number 2021-4576.
Judge Yoon Sangsoo was removed from the case,
so I will take over from here on.
Why was he removed?
Case number 2021-4576.
I'll deliver the decision on the cryptocurrency damages case.
Your Honor, please tell us why...
JUDGE: Counsel.
One more out of you, and you'll be removed from the courtroom.
(crowd murmuring)
OFFICER: Quiet!
(sighs)
WOMAN: Hey! You!
- You jerk! - MAN: Hey!
You said we'd win and not to trust a big law firm!
WOMAN: What will you do now? What will you do about our money?
Wait! Hold on!
He's a victim as well.
Let's calm down a little and talk it out.
Everyone!
We will appeal. I promise.
We must band together in times like these...
I hear you're Big Mouth.
What?
I hear your nickname is Big Mouth
because you run your mouth without the skills to back it up!
(scoffs) That's absurd.
WOMAN: You fraud.
Give me back my money!
- Do you know how hard I worked? - Please stop!
- WOMAN: What will you do now? - Don't take my father-in-law away!
- WOMAN: Give me my money! - Hold on!
- Darn it. - You're going to kill my son-in-law!
Stop it. You'll kill him.
(clamoring)
NURSE: I heard your husband was a hotshot lawyer.
Is that a big deal?
Of course, it is.
If my husband were a lawyer, I would've quit long ago.
I would've quit already if I were doing it for the money.
It's a noble job working with people's lives.
What other job is there where we can call ourselves angels in white?
You're so cool. I need to learn from you.
Don't be silly.
(giggles)
The trial should be over by now.
(Changho sighs)
You knew that my nickname was Big Mouth, didn't you?
MIHO'S FATHER: They're spewing nonsense, so don't mind them.
Maybe I should quit being a lawyer.
I won't stop you.
But you should pay me my back pay that you owe me.
- Oh, dear. - (laughs)
I have a call.
(phone vibrating)
MADAM
I'm too scared to answer. You do it.
She scares me, too.
Don't be silly. She's your daughter. Hurry up and answer it.
- She's just like her mom. - Please.
MIHO: How did the trial go?
What? So we can't get any of our money back?
(breathes heavily)
This was why I said to hire a separate lawyer.
MIHO: How will we pay this month's interest?
How will we fix the water leaking to the unit below?
(clears throat) Should I switch over to divorce law?
- I hear that's lucrative these days... - Good idea.
Prepare my divorce papers for me. I'll pay you well.
Come on, Miho. Don't joke like that. That hurts.
MIHO: Want to see how hurt I am?
My heart is tattered because of you.
(sighs deeply)
Bring the documents tonight. I can't live with you any longer.
Fine, let's do it. Let's get divorced. Fine.
Are you insane?
If we do, I'm living with Father-in-law, and that's that.
- What? - I can break up with you,
but not with him.
He depends on me more than you anyway.
Isn't that right?
Don't drag me into your fight.
MIHO: You want to die?
Do you think I'll be scared and back down if you use my dad as a shield?
Ms. Ko?
(quirky music)
I'll see you at home. Please bring the documents.
Yes, ma'am.
(phone beeps)
Hey. Are you insane? Why are you bringing up divorce?
(sighs) I know. Why did I do that?
SEOLLEONGTANG, DOGANITANG
SOONTAE: Divorce? Yeah, right.
If you two get divorced, no couple in Korea would stay married.
CHANGHO: Hey. Do I seem that incompetent in your eyes too?
I have a high IQ and I'm pretty confident in my physique.
I know. You were on the track team throughout high school.
Right. So what's wrong with me to have ended up like this?
Something huge. You have no money or connections.
Does not having money or connections mean I have to lose my lawsuits?
Why is that my problem?
Law and society are what's messed up.
I should just... Hey. Listen to me.
Should I deceive people and threaten them like others do?
Will I become successful then?
Don't become pessimistic too. You'll really be depressed.
- (sighs deeply) - (phone vibrates)
INTEREST OF 15,280,000 WON HAS ACCRUED ON YOUR LOAN OF 259,000,000 WON.
- Shoot. - SOONTAE: You don't like it?
Not eating that?
(Changho groans)
(phone ringing)
OPERATOR: The person you have reached is not available.
- (scoffs) - Please leave a message...
- He's screening my calls now? - (phone beeps)
(sighs) Mr. Park. You're asking for it.
Seriously.
(gulping)
(exhales) What is that?
What?
What's in that bag?
What? This bag?
MIHO'S FATHER: Nothing. It's just a bag.
I should throw out what I don't wear. They take up too much room.
MIHO: Is it me or Changho?
MIHO'S FATHER: What?
Whom will you live with if we break up?
How could you talk about things like breaking up and choosing?
You're tough and will be fine on your own,
but Changho can't live without me.
What? Aren't I your daughter?
Was I found on the street or something?
Whatever.
- Dad! - (door opens)
(door closes)
Seriously.
(scoffs)
It's like I'm the daughter-in-law.
(quirky music)
Father-in-law!
(Miho's father grunts)
- (muttering) - (zipper rasps)
You packed my underwear, right?
What about Miho?
She's waiting to kill you when you come home,
while drinking soju.
I'll stay in the office for the time being.
If you'd talk to her for me...
Whatever. I'm about to get kicked out too because of you.
Please.
(phone ringing)
Excuse me. Do you mind?
- MIHO'S FATHER: Sure. - Thank you.
Hello?
MAN: Are you Park Changho?
Yes, I am. Who's this?
I'm Choi Doha, the mayor of Gucheon.
Yes, Mayor. How may I help you?
I want to hire you for a criminal case.
Can we meet right now?
(mutters)
(ominous music)
(suspenseful music)
(mutters)
Why are we meeting here? It's scary.
CHANGHO: What was that?
Is this the right place?
(tires screech)
(music fades)
(crickets chirping)
(grunts)
Excuse me. Mayor Choi Doha?
MAYOR CHOI: I'm glad you found your way. Have a seat.
Yes, sir.
Sorry for asking to meet on such short notice.
It's fine.
I got your call as soon as I got done with an important meeting.
I should have a business card somewhere.
MAYOR CHOI: I don't need one.
Have some coffee.
CHANGHO: Thank you.
I'll get to the point.
Have you heard of the Gucheon University Hospital murder?
Yes, I heard about it on the news.
The people involved are all people that I know.
(ominous music)
(tires screeching)
- (screams) - MAYOR CHOI: There was a car accident,
and the body of a doctor was in the trunk.
Those in the car were Han Jaeho, a surgeon,
Lee Doogeun, the hospital's in-house attorney,
and Jung Chaebong, the son of the chair of the Gucheon University Foundation.
They were arrested at the scene as prime suspects.
You killed him.
You were having an affair with Jaeyoung's wife.
Did you see me do anything with her?
INTERROGATOR: You're not here to fight.
To be honest, Doogeun, you were the one who wanted to kill him.
Everyone at the hospital knows you were fighting over medical disputes.
I wasn't the one fighting with him, Dr. Han was.
They were fighting for the position of hospital director.
And in whose car was the body found?
It was Dr. Han's car!
- Hey! - What?
- DR. HAN: Are you done? - What?
- You... - Enough.
- Stop it. - Hey.
MAYOR CHOI: They're accusing each other of the murder,
and they all had convincing motives.
CHANGHO: But how did you get my number?
You're surrounded by lawyers. Why me? We've never even met before.
Your win rate is less than 10%.
MAYOR CHOI: You became a lawyer but got no offers from law firms.
You had to start your own practice, but you're always in debt.
Excuse me.
I'll be honest.
When they asked me to choose a lawyer for them,
they had some conditions.
The lawyer must be incompetent and obedient.
(ominous music)
(scoffs)
I don't quite follow.
They've already planned out their own trial.
They've bought over the judges to an extent as well.
In other words,
you need a front man, not an attorney.
(music stops)
(exhales) It's not too enticing.
And I feel like I'd be getting my hands dirty.
CHANGHO: I'll go now.
MAYOR CHOI: The dashcam video from the accident disappeared.
(suspenseful music)
If we find that,
we can figure out who murdered Professor Seo.
Didn't you want to help them?
They want to be acquitted,
but I want the truth.
Do you believe me now?
Well, it sounds like they have something huge on you.
MAYOR CHOI: They played a major role in getting me elected mayor.
But they try to butt in on every government matter.
I plan to cut them off entirely through this.
In other words,
you want me to be a double agent pretending to help them.
This is from me personally.
(scoffs)
I think my fees are higher than this.
A famous American artist once said,
"First, become famous.
Then people will applaud even when you poop."
You've heard of NR Forum, right? Nine Rivers Forum.
The late Professor Seo and the suspects
are members there.
(dramatic music)
A righteous lawyer who fights against Goliath.
It would look good in my opinion.
(water ripples)
(dramatic music continues)
(rod rattling)
(music intensifies)
(phone line ringing)
(suspenseful music)
(sighs)
SOONTAE: Hi, Changho.
Where are you?
In the office. I'm about to head home.
I'm heading your way. Let's meet for a bit.
NR Forum? They're all big shots.
Hey. I'll pay you back nicely once I become famous, so help me.
There's something I do to get a big alimony...

Sir. Is this really... I don't think...
(ominous music continues)
(lock blares)
I'm on my way to visit inmates, right?
(door unlocks)
RÉSUMÉ PARK CHANGHO
(Doogeun scoffs) He hardly won any cases.
How does he survive as a lawyer with these skills?
That twerp Mayor Choi did his research.
It must've been hard to find someone like that.
This is an Italian wine, Amilano Barolo Liste.
It should be to your liking.
Warden Park, cigar.
Yes, sir.
Okay.
(imitates swooshing)
(sniffs)
(exclaims)

- WARDEN PARK: Please enjoy. - CHAEBONG: Is this Cuban?
- DOOGEUN: Who's that? - CHAEBONG: What's he here for?
(laughs)
Your attorney is here.
Take your time and speak comfortably.
- Okay. - DOOGEUN: Thanks.
(distant footsteps receding)
Don't just stand there. Have a seat.
Yes, sir.
I'm Park Changho.
CHANGHO: Let me give you my card.
(Changho muttering)
LAW OFFICE OF PARK CHANGHO
(Changho sighs)
I'm class 37 at the Institute of Justice. I can speak casually, right?
Yes, of course. There's no need for any of you to be formal.
The mayor filled you in, right?
Yes, sir.
He said my win rate won't go down if I do as I'm told.
(laughter)
Here. It's all in here.
The strategy for the trial, our alibis,
flaws in the prosecution's case,
and even the statements you'll make in court.
Yes, sir.
(suspenseful music)
(sighs)
Aren't you going to read it?
You'll probably have many questions.
Why would I?
All I need to do is follow the script that you've prepared.
(laughter)
Do you and Cho Donghwa get along?
CHAEBONG: You know he's the prosecutor on the case, right?
CHANGHO: Yes, I do.
He's a star prosecutor. I don't know him personally.
I'm a nobody after all.
DOOGEUN: Come on. It's not hard to become somebody.
Handle a couple of big cases and go on TV once,
and you'll be respected.
(sighs)
I want to bring honor to my family.
Please help me, sirs.
CHAEBONG (chuckles): Okay.
He's cute.
Sure is.
(phone ringing)
Hello?
CHAEBONG: Gosh.
To what do we owe the pleasure, Mayor?
(ominous music)
A tip?
SOONTAE: Is this the Prosecutors' Office?
I have a tip about the Gucheon Hospital murder.
WOMAN: I need to check your identity. What is your name?
My name is Oh Sungsik. I'm an attorney.
CHAEBONG: There was no dashcam in the car.
Who's lying about something that doesn't exist?
Who called in the tip?
What? A lawyer?
Okay. I'll check and get back to you.
(chuckles)
CHANGHO: Please call me if you need me to do anything.
I'll be off then.
(suspenseful music)
(ominous music)
(keypad clacking)
- (device beeps) - (door opens)
CHAEBONG: You gave the dashcam video to your wife, right?
DR. HAN: Why? Is there a problem?
CHAEBONG: Call her right now.
OFFICER: Let's go.
Okay.
DR. HAN: She's filming her cooking show. I can't reach her.
This is driving me nuts.
Dr. Han.
Did your wife have a change of heart?
DR. HAN: What the hell are you talking about?
How did a lawyer named Oh Sungsik know about the dashcam video?
The three of us and your wife are the only ones who know.
So? Does the prosecutor have it?
I don't know.
CHAEBONG: I think it was just a tip as of now.
Shouldn't we get rid of the video?
Are you stupid?
That's our insurance policy.
We're the only ones who'll go down if that jerk changes his mind.
(door closes)
(ominous music intensifies)
Inspectors are here from headquarters.
Please return to your cells.
(ominous music)
Insurance policy? Is there another accomplice?
MAYOR OF GUCHEON, CHOI DOHA
PARK CHANGHO
(phone vibrating)
Go on.
Dr. Han's wife has the dashcam video.
(upbeat music)
Are you sure?
Yes. I bugged them and recorded it.
She's filming some cooking show right now.
But Mayor.
I think there's another accomplice.
Send me the recording.
Okay. I'll go to you now.
No.
I'll go see her myself.
(phone beeps)
Even children who don't like vegetables will like this,
so try making it at home.
I'll be back with an even tastier dish next time.
Thank you.
DIRECTOR: Cut! Okay.
- DIRECTOR: Good job. - CREW: Good job.

Excuse me. Do you know where Professor Jang Hyejin is?
Her shoot's over, so she left.
(Hyejin screams) Someone come help!
Help! Someone, please help!
MAN: Professor!
Professor! Are you okay?
- WOMAN: Professor! - Excuse me.
MAYOR CHOI: Hyejin! Open up.
Professor! Are you okay?
- MAYOR CHOI: Hyejin! - MAN: Professor!
Excuse me.
(clanging)
MAYOR CHOI: Hyejin.
Hyejin!
- MAN: Professor. What's wrong? - MAYOR CHOI: Hyejin!
Are you okay, Hyejin?
Hyejin.
(gasps, shudders)
(breathes heavily)
OFFICER: Please call us if you think of anything that may give us a lead.
I will. Thank you for your service.
(footsteps receding)
(door closes)
I haven't thanked the two of you yet.
You're an attorney? Did my husband...
Where did you hide the dashcam footage from the accident?
(ominous music)
What do you mean? What dashcam footage?
Your husband said he gave it to you.
(tense music)
You seem to be mistaken. I don't...
CHAEBONG: You gave the dashcam video to your wife, right?
DR. HAN: Why? Is something wrong?
CHAEBONG: Call her right now.
DR. HAN: She's filming her cooking show...
Withholding evidence for a murder case will get you three years minimum.
(tense music)
(water sloshing)
(tense music)
Where is the dashcam video?
There's another accomplice, isn't there?
That's what it sounded like from that recording. Who is it?
(music intensifies)
(music stops)
Gong Jihoon.
Gong Jihoon?
MAYOR CHOI: He's the president of a newspaper.
The founder of Woojeong Daily and grandson of Chairman Gong Taemin.
Woojeong Daily President Gong Jihoon?
(people cheeering)
MAYOR CHOI: All of the suspects are Gong Jihoon's lackeys.
(screaming excitedly)
You stupid moron!
MAYOR CHOI: He and the late Professor Seo were on terrible terms.
That's shocking.
That the biggest highroller in Korea is a murderer.
I have an urgent meeting, so you'll have to go without me.
Bring the dashcam video to me once you find it.
Yes, sir.
CHANGHO: Please get in.
(suspenseful music)
(car door closes)
JANG JUNGTAE
You have to keep your word.
Don't worry. I won't report you.
(suspenseful music)
But...
even if I did, you wouldn't be convicted.
CHANGHO: Criminal Act, Article 155, Clause 4.
"A person who destroys or falsifies evidence
in order to help a relative or cohabitator cannot be punished."
(sighs)
CHANGHO: Hide until this is resolved.
What happened today may not have been a simple attempted sexual assault.
Gong Jihoon...
HYEJIN: Let me give you some advice as well.
Be careful.
Taking on this case...
might bring you great misery.
(music intensifies)
(gasping, choking)
(grunting)
(Doogeun groaning)
Seriously.
How dare you try to run away?
CHAEBONG: You'll die if you jump out, punk.
(Jaeyong groaning)
- Stop. - CHAEBONG: Hey, you.
(tires screech)
CHAEBONG: Withdraw your paper. Stop being stubborn.
You'll really die.
(Jaeyong groaning)
- (horn honks) - DR. HAN: Watch it, jerks!
Hey!
(tires screeching)
Do you want to die?
Withdraw the paper, you bastard!
(Chaebong grunting)
(grunts)
I'll kill you...
- This bastard. - (coughs)
Jaeyoung, just say that you'll withdraw your paper!
(in strained voice) You can kill me,
but it'll get out eventually.
(screams)
(groans loudly)
Come on!
- DOOGEUN: Easy, easy. - CHAEBONG: You jerk!
Hold on. Let go!
DOOGEUN: He's dead. I think he's dead.
I think he died!
I'm telling you he's dead!
(gasps)
(ominous music)
He's dead! What do we do now?
DOOGEUN: God damn it!
(screams)
(whimpers)
Hey, Jaeyoung!

CHANGHO: What was in that paper for them to have killed the man?
(suspenseful music)
(keyboard clacks)
ATTORNEY AT LAW, PARK CHANGHO
(phone vibrating)
Hey.
CHAEBONG: Yeah. We put the body in the trunk.
(breathes heavily)
What could we do? He figured it out and tried to run.
CHAEBONG: Okay. We'll be right there.
DOOGEUN: What did he say?
He said he'd take care of the body.
Dr. Han. Just go to the meet-up spot first.
Get it together!
Hey. Shoot.
DR. HAN: Darn it.
(keyboard clacks)
They never say Gong Jihoon's name.
There will be huge repercussions if this gets out.
(music intensifies)
(music stops)
(slurps)
(chopsticks clanging)
(phone vibrates)
Shoot. These annoying spam texts come at any time of the day.
Why? Are you waiting for Changho to call?
Has he lost his mind? He hasn't even called for days.
Does he really want to end it or what?
That's how cornered he feels.
He's been eating cup noodles every day at the office.
(sighs) He's already so skinny.
What's wrong with you?
You're his father-in-law. You should make sure he eats well.
All I ever eat is rice and water at home, too.
(munching)
(doorknob clicks)
(doorbell rings)
- Who is it at this hour? - Who else?
He can't hold out for that long.
MIHO'S FATHER: Is it Changho?
MIHO: Hey, Changho. Talk about timing. Right while we're having dinner.
(giggles)
(Miho gasps)
Does Park Changho live here?
Who are you?
MAN: We're from the Gucheon Court.
The court? What is this about?
We will now seize any personal property as requested by Bobae Capital.
Seize property?
MIHO'S FATHER: Wait.
Who are you?
Why are you walking in here with your shoes on?
Hello, sir.
MIHO'S FATHER: There are seizure stickers all over our home.
Seizure?
That loan shark you borrowed from.
These guys just barged in as soon as we opened the door...
(door opens)
MIHO: You borrowed from a loan shark?
Are you trying to ruin our family?
- What are you going to do about this? - (line cuts)
Hello? Changho. Hello?
Did he hang up?
That irresponsible punk.
You knew, didn't you?
What?
You should've stopped him. Am I the only normal one here?
Why are you both so reckless?
He talked big, that he could pay it off once we won the trial...
Whatever. You're equally responsible.
MIHO'S FATHER: Hey.
COMPENSATION, BANKRUPTCY
(Changho sighs) Money really is the source of evil.

MAYOR CHOI DOHA
(upbeat music)
MAYOR CHOI: A righteous lawyer who fights against Goliath.
It would look good in my opinion.
CHANGHO: It would look good indeed.
But why would I do that?
Because fame equals cash.
It's all about money in the end.

PARK CHANGHO
(music fades)

(sighs deeply)
(Miho's father exhales)
Hey.
Are you insane? Why did you come home? You should be running away.
(chuckles) Is Miho asleep?
Miho. Honey.
Was my baby crying?
(Changho mutters)
Don't worry, babe. I'll take care of this in no time.
I'll fix it.
You annoying jerk.
- Why I... - Hey. Stop.
Hey, that's a criminal offense...
It's five years in prison and a fine of seven million won.
- Right? - Yes, that's right.
(pot clangs)
Miho, this is chicken.
CHANGHO: And take this.
Do you think I want to eat right now?
MIHO'S FATHER: It's money.
(smirks)
Where did you get this?
Where else would a lawyer get money? I didn't knock over an ATM.
MIHO: How much is all this?
That's just the retainer. Yes, the retainer.
What's the case that the retainer was in cash?
It's a huge case. That's all you need to know.
I'm tired. I need to wash up.
Here. The chicken.
MIHO: Wait.
Why did they hire you of all people for a huge case?
(sighs) Miho.
I may not have connections, but I've got skills.
Right, sir?
Yes. He has an exceptional mind. He just doesn't get a lot of work.
Yes, well...
Count the money. Let's have chicken and beer after I shower.
Goodness.
This...
(Miho gasps)
How much is all this?
(money rustling)
(chuckles)
(breathes deeply)
Should we have a baby?
I want to be called "Daddy."
Will the baby raise itself? We can't even take care of ourselves.
Why not?
I'll just make huge money all at once, that's all.
Let's talk after you make huge money. You're so full of it.
- You really are a Big Mouth. - (gasps)
Where'd you hear about that?
Dang it. Father-in-law...
Babe, you know what day tomorrow is?
I do.
(sighs) Time really flies.
I feel like we got married yesterday, but it's been three years already.
Should we go somewhere nice for dinner?
Come home early.
I'll grill up some nice pork belly.
Why? Am I being too cold?
MIHO: We need to face reality.
When will we pay off the loans with the bank and the loan shark?
(serene music)
Come hither and embrace me.
No.
No?
Am I not your husband if I don't make good money?
You come hither.
(chuckles)
I shall go.
There.
(Changho grunts)
(murmuring)
(giggling)
CHANGHO: What lotion is that? You smell great.
MIHO: Dad's not asleep yet.
CHANGHO: It's okay.
He'll be snoring soon.
MIHO: Hey. Get off.
- CHANGHO: Come on. Hey, you. Stay still. - (Miho shushes)
MIHO: Hey now.
You wicked servant. Gosh.
(giggling)
(suspenseful music)
CHANGHO: If it goes well, I'll be rich. If not, I'll be famous.
Is this what it means to be dealt a good hand?
(phone vibrating)
(phone clicks)
JIHOON: Hello?
Hello, my name is Park Changho. I'm an attorney.
(music intensifies)
WOMAN: Who is it? Your wife?
JIHOON: How may I help you?
CHANGHO: You know the suspects of the Gucheon Hospital murder, correct?
(woman gasps)
JIHOON: And?
I'm heading to your vacation house right now.
(tense music)
(music fades)
CHANGHO: It's nice being rich.
- Come with me. - CHANGHO: Of course.
(suspenseful music)
(tense music)
I have the dashcam video that captured the murder scene...
(music stops)
(eerie music)
BUTLER: That costs three billion won.
(ominous music)

(Jihoon exhales sharply)
(sighs deeply)
I don't have much time,
so please make it quick.
Are you really a lawyer?
(mutters)
(pensive music)
LAW OFFICE OF PARK CHANGHO
What's that important piece of evidence?
The dashcam video of the murder scene.
I have it.
It shows Jung Chaebong speaking with someone on the phone.
I have a feeling... (exhales heavily)
that person ordered the murder.
So?
Why did you come to see me?
(laughs sarcastically)
Do you really want to drag this out?
Buy the video from me.
Three billion won.
Three billion won?
I don't think it's an unreasonable price for helping someone do something bad.
(ominous music)
(snaps fingers)
You're saying I was the one who ordered them
to kill Seo Jaeyoung.
The prosecutors will figure that out.
That's what taxpayers pay them for.
(snickers)
(laughing)
Do you even know who I am...
to try to blackmail me like this?
The owner of a media company that kill and save people with words.
However, this sword that I hold...
is tremendous.
(Jihoon sighs)
Then wield your toy sword all you want.
Let's see
who gets hurt...
and how.
You know the story about Goliath, right?
He was killed by pebbles.
- Only five of them. - JIHOON: Hey.
You're an idiot, aren't you?
Get lost. Now.
The moment I walk out of here, the negotiation is over. Think about it...
I...
said
get lost,
you prick.
(music intensifies)
- (door closes) - (ice clinking)
(music fades)
So you want to play hard ball.
Fine. Let's see what happens.
MAYOR CHOI DOHA
(phone vibrating)
Hello, Mayor.
Why weren't you taking my calls?
I'm sorry. My phone died.
MAYOR CHOI: Where are you? Let's meet.
Today won't work. How about tomorrow?
(sighs deeply)
That dashcam video...
I'll give it to the prosecutor myself.
CHANGHO: It won't be good for you to get involved since you know the suspects.
Fine.
You do that.
(suspenseful music)
(serene music playing)
Ms. Ko Miho?
- Yes. - Please follow me.
MIHO'S FATHER: Wow. Aren't places like this super expensive?
Changho, that punk.
He's showing off without thinking about the consequences.

CHANGHO: Hello?
Mr. Cho?
I'm Park Changho, defense counsel for the Gucheon Hospital murder.
STAFF: Please, drink this on your way.
How thoughtful of you.
Thank you.
(phone line beeps)
(tense music)
REPORTER 1: The genius con artist. The king of the dark world.
The godfather of the underground economy.
Shockingly, all of these are probably one person.
The person called Big Mouse.
Is this person real?
Yes. Some say Big Mouse is made up.
Some say it's a group of people or even a foreigner.
(laughs) Right.
REPORTER 2: There are many hypotheses out there.
REPORTER 1: We've never seen him, but we know many of his crimes.
Dozens of cases of fraud, drug distribution, illegal loans,
and illegal gambling sites.
REPORTER 1: There's a rumor that he's being protected by the upper class.
What do you think?
Are the cops unable to catch him or are they just not catching him?
Please get caught so that I can defend you.

CHANGHO: Obviously, I didn't die.
Miho went to see a fortune-teller once,
and he said I don't have much luck but I'll live a long life.
But when I woke up, I was a completely different person.
The most despicable louse in the world.

SPECIAL THANKS TO PARK HOON
CHANGHO: The things that will happen.
Are you Big Mouse?
- You need to stay alert. - (siren wailing)
CHANGHO: Never in my wildest dreams
did I expect to become famous like this.
Did you meet Gong Jihoon?
Bravo!
- MAN 1: Welcome, Big Mouse. - (gasps)
MAN 2: This is the only place in Korea where lawlessness is allowed.
What's your problem with me?
CHANGHO: Who and why...
Just kill me, you jerk!
...did they turn me into Big Mouse?
