Prosecutor Princess
Episode 7
Hello?
Did your move go well?
I'm on my terrace quietly enjoying some fresh air.
Oh!
Hello?
Lawyer Seo!
Why are you calling me so lovey-dovey?
Oh!
Why are you there?
Because it's my house.
What?
What are you doing there?
You said you were moving. Did you move here?
But, your house is in Yang Ja Dong.
I moved here a week ago.
Put down your cell phone.
Your cell phone! Cell phone.
Wait. Wait a minute.
Wait. Come see me for a minute.
You are so impatient.
Why didn't you tell me you moved?
You weren't in a state where I could tell you about my move.
By chance, did you follow me and move here?
Did you ever tell me you were moving to this neighborhood?
I told you I was moving to Yoon sunbae's neighborhood.
Oh, so your Yoon sunbae lives in this neighborhood?
But, out of all these houses in this neighborhood,
did you tell me you were moving to this villa?
Maybe you followed me here.
What? No way. Why would I?
Then why would I?
That's because Lawyer Seo...
Lawyer Seo, what?
Because I liked Ma Hye Ri at one time?
At one time?
What? You think I still have a crush on you?
Or you want me to develop a crush?
I never said that.
That's not it.
You asked me if I followed you.
My reason for moving here is Yoon sunbae.
I'm not interested in women who move because of other men.
That's why I said I'll be your friend.
So this is all pure coincidence?
- No. - No. That's not, right?
This is fate.
What?
To say it was an evil plot seems a little farfetched.
So we'll call it fate.
I think my calling in life is taking care of you.
I am very disappointed, very disappointed.
Is it really coincidence?
My moving here, I didn't tell anyone.
Only my mom and dad and Yoo Na know about me moving here.
What? What is this?
Oh, that scared me!
Mom.
Are you scared?
I just knew it!
N... No! I'm not scared. Not at all; I'm not a child.
You've never lived on your own.
Plus, you can't wake up on your own.
I don't know what you want saying you want to live by yourself.
That's why we need to install security cameras.
What do you mean install security cameras at your daughter's house?
We can wake her up if she's still sleeping.
We can check to see if men are coming to her place.
Oh, what's that noise?
But...
Having someone I know nearby makes me feel less scared.
Prosecutor Ma! Prosecutor Ma Hye Ri!
Prosecutor Ma!
Lawyer Seo?
- What's going on? - Are you awake?
What's going on?
You need to leave for work.
What?
You moved to this neighborhood for a purpose.
You need to accomplish that goal.
Wha... what is that?
You need to get ready quickly to get a ride with Prosecutor Yoon.
Time is already short.
Oh! Oh, what time is it?
Hello, Sunbaenim.
What are you doing at this hour?
I moved to this neighborhood.
So I wanted to get a ride with you.
A ride?
Can I get in?
Ye... Yeah.
That's right, that's Prosecutor Jin's seat.
Since Prosecutor Jin was carpooling with you first,
it wouldn't be right if I took her seat.
Oh, hello.
Get in Sunbaenim.
Where did you move?
To Shi Chae Villa.
Do you know where it is?
Maybe.
It's close by, not far at all.
Did your parents move?
No, my parents live at Song Bok Dong.
It's too far for me to commute,
my mom was worried so she got a place for me without me knowing.
It's close to work at the central prosecutor's office.
Yeah.
You know Sunbaenim, now that I am seeing you really close up,
you have really good skin.
Your eyes are so pretty.
I didn't notice because of your glasses. Take off your glasses.
You would look so much better without your glasses.
Don't you agree, Sunbaenim?
What?
Yeah.
Why are you acting like this?
Sunbaenim!
Take off your glasses, wear contact lenses and grow out your hair.
A woman's hair gets the reaction.
Stop it, okay?
So, do you two carpool every single day?
What's going on there?
Good morning.
- Yes. Good morning. - Good morning.
Isn't today the day we finally investigate the accusation case?
Yes. I just gave Ms. Hwang Soo Ja her entrance badge.
Oh!
Excuse me, Ms. Hwang Soo Ja.
You got a cheap rental,
then used your rental as collateral to obtain a loan and you didn't pay that back.
Even the money to rent the place was a loan.
So, it was all fraudulent...
Well...
Bang unni said she would take care of everything.
And give me the money if I rented it under my name.
For my son's tuition...
But... but... the rent was subleased to Kim Ok Soon.
And you acted as a guarantor.
Didn't you take the $150,000 loan?
No, Ms. Prosecutor.
I needed my son's tuition money so I only did what they told me to do.
Why can't you get in touch with Bang unni?
I think she purposely disconnected the phone.
She left me the whole mess.
I feel so used.
Have a safe trip home.
Why are you having a difficult time with the defendant?
Well... that's...
What if this defendant wasn't the one used?
I wish there was a litmus test to read people's hearts.
How difficult is one's situation?
For $2,000, letting them use your name and be the guarantor.
Maybe I should go by the house.
Yes?
Prosecutor, the Bureau Chief would like to see you.
Where autopsies are performed?
Prosecutor Jin is going, so tag along.
So if it's where autopsies are performed then...
Is it a corpse?
Of course.
To prepare for when you have to go on your own, observe Prosecutor Jin very closely.
Female. Name, Min Jung Hee. 26 years old.
She was found in her new home.
- She was to marry this May. - Oh my.
The one to discover her was her fiancé.
When he woke up, he discovered her already dead.
That's terrible.
She had severe hypotension, so she had passed out many times before.
There were no evidence of foul play so,
the police believe she died of shock from hypotension.
Min Jung Hee. 26 years old. History of hypotension
Fiancé discovered her in the morning.
Is he the one who discovered her?
Yes.
He's the fiancé.
Shall we see?
Min Jung Hee, I am Prosecutor Jin Jung Sung.
Since she passed away in her sleep, there are no wounds on her body.
Please turn her over.
That's enough; please turn her back over.
Prosecutor Ma, come here.
What?
Wh... wh... wh... why?
Come here!
- Come feel this. - I don't want to!
Be quiet!
You're a prosecutor.
Why are you whining like an 18 year old girl?
A post-mortem investigation is one of a prosecutor's many tasks.
Do you think you can be a prosecutor without examining corpses?
Why is a rib missing here?
Why is there space here?
The rib is completely broken, right?
Follow me.
What? Now where?
So... on a day like today, do we have to eat something like this?
This is a prosecutor's tradition.
On my first post-mortem exam, I ate intestine soup.
Intestines?
I think it's Sunbae's way of making us tougher.
That's nothing. Later you'll have to see the actual autopsy performed.
From booking investigations to autopsies.
You know how to joke?
Do you know why prosecutors do autopsy exams?
No, and I really don't want to know... NO! No, no, I'm fine.
In case there's something the deceased need to say, you have to speak on their behalf.
A prosecutor is not a psychic.
How can they speak for the deceased?
A dead person is silent.
Since the dead can't speak,
if there's something unresolved, you have to say it for them.
Sunbaenim, once in a while you get agitated in a big way.
I'm like that. A prosecutor is like that to me.
You tend get agitated, but you are remarkable.
You're quite impressive, from what've I observed.
I am, aren't I?
That's why we found the murder today.
I spoke on behalf of the woman who couldn't.
They even say that the dead will speak with their body.
But, Sunbaenim,
you understand the dead quite well, but when it comes to the living,
you seem a little oblivious.
What are you talking about?
You know I like Yoon sunbae,
yet you continue to ride with him, especially after work.
What?
Why do you think I moved?
You moved because of Yoon sunbae?
Well... there is a little overtime involved.
So, you need to help me.
Even if it's after work.
You're more oblivious, I like Yoon sunbae also!
What?
I liked Yoon Se Jun sunbae first.
But then... so that is...
Do the two of you like each other?
That's not it.
Whatever you heard from me today, just suppress it, okay?
I was thinking...
What?
What you said earlier.
"I liked Yoon sunbae first!"
That.
Hey!
I'm really sorry, but,
I can't step aside.
What?
I really despise women who steal other women's men but...
I wish you would have told me earlier, then I wouldn't have let my feelings develop.
It's too late now. My feelings...
I can't control them anymore.
Prosecutor Ma, I don't think you know a lot about Yoon sunbae.
But I'll agree to give you the carpooling.
That was already yours.
Me getting in the middle of that, seems really low.
You can't take a wheel off when it's spinning.
Fighting...
Hey.
Where... Where are you going?
To the Public Prosecutor's Office; I'm going on duty.
I'm going home to shower.
Prosecutor Ma!
I almost forgot to tell you.
On your first autopsy exam, there's a curse that if you go home before midnight,
the ghost will follow you.
What?
No way. Besides, I don't believe in curses.
You can believe it or not.
But, if you show that ghost your house, they'll live with you forever.
What?
No! No! Don't you dare come here!
Mom, do you believe in that?
Yes, I do.
What I fear the most, after your father, are ghosts.
But Mom, actually, it's because I really miss you.
Actually, I worry about you.
A person who moved out recently shouldn't behave like this.
It'll become a bad habit.
I'm hanging up!
Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom!
Wow! She is cold hearted!
But I'll agree to give you the carpooling.
That was already yours.
Are you finished?
There's more. There's a lot more.
Jung Nan, if I don't have you...
Let's just end it, please.
Let's just end it.
Don't you have any conscience?
Let me go. Just let me go!
Hey, Ha Jung Nan. Why you?
Take it.
This too.
Take it. Go! Go! Go!
Hold on.
I told you to stop it.
Why do you make a person have no sense of shame?
If you have a sense of shame, you should have left him a long time ago.
This time, it's really finished.
He won't be able to ask for anything more.
I wish you could start over, clean slate.
What's wrong with you today?
You're not even shopping.
You've been just sitting here.
Hey, don't you finish work at 10? Let's go to the spa.
You know, the one's that's open 24 hours.
I can't today.
I'm really sorry, Hye Ri.
Today is my boyfriend and my 100-day celebration.
Hey, then leave those with me.
What?
Wow! An hour and 10 minutes.
In an hour and 10 minutes, that's 539 calories.
I haven't been able to exercise because of work,
so I'm exercising and killing time.
Oh, you scared me!
What are you doing?
In the middle of the night...
Are you exercising?
You're the one exercising in the middle of the night.
You want to run together?
I can't yet.
It's 12:03! It's over.
What can't you yet and what's over?
Well, actually, I went to a post-mortem examination today.
But Jin sunbae said if I went home before midnight,
the deceased's spirit would follow me home.
Before midnight?
So I couldn't go home and I was killing time.
It's not that I believe in those things,
but if they come into your house, they'll stay with you forever.
Dummy, ghosts come out after midnight.
What?
If you came home before midnight, they wouldn't have known where you lived.
It probably followed you.
It followed you.
- What? - It's right next to you.
What?! Mommy!
What are you doing?!
- It's climbing on your back! - Stop it!
What is it?
Well... that is... by chance... do you have any water?
Water?
Yes, bottled water.
I'm really thirsty,
but... could you bring me some bottled water?
Come out to the terrace.
What?
What are you doing?
This is really convenient.
Take the water out.
What now?
Do you have any antacids?
Are you sick?
Yes, I think I have indigestion.
My stomach really hurts.
Stay right there, I'll be right down.
Yes!
Do you have any antacids?
Are you sick?
Yes, I think I have indigestion.
My stomach really hurts.
I can sleep. I can sleep.
I can sleep.
It followed you.
It's right next to you.
Mommy!
Hey, Seo In Woo!
That's right! Did you hammer the nails?
Nails?
You have that, but you don't have the screws?
I think I used it all up during my move. I don't have any.
Then what are you going to do?
I'll drill the holes today and put the screws in next time.
Then if you need me for anything, call me.
I'll wait right here.
Okay.
Ma Hye Ri, wake up!
Ma Hye Ri!
You need to carpool!
What?
Ma Hye Ri!
You need to go meet Prosecutor Yoon!
What are you looking at?
Go wash up!
Over there is a serious problem, and look over there. There.
This apartment is only six years old.
Aigoo, cheap construction.
Look at that crack.
- Honestly... - This apartment is only six years old,
but why is it in such terrible condition?
You think this is a serious problem?
All the tenants are in an uproar.
If it's Nam Woo Apartments then the circumstances are okay.
It'll be no problem.
So once the safety inspection is completed, we should start immediately.
I guess we must.
We don't have much time left.
In the end, Ma Hye Ri is the problem.
That task, do you think Ma Hye Ri can succeed?
We must make her succeed.
Look who we have here.
I'm bumping into an old friend.
I heard your daughter is a prosecutor.
That selection matches you very well.
You never contacted me once.
But I guess you haven't forgotten me.
I just like observing those who I have helped.
I saw your news in the newspaper.
Really?
Whenever I can, I visit S.T. Apartments firsthand.
It's really persistent.
It was worth it to help you grow.
I know.
If only I had walked a little bit more,
then I wouldn't have been able to give you the campaign funds.
Ah, yes.
Thank you.
Geez, I thought I was going to die when we weren't allotted any,
but now I think I'm going to die because of all the allotments.
Look at all this. So many.
What? Geum So Ri?
It's the actress Geum So Ri.
What?
You know that Geum So Ri,
The one who had an affair with Choi Woo Seung and hit the child.
She was charged with assault.
This time, she's the one suing.
Who is she suing?
Libelers.
These days the internet libel cases come in all the time.
Even celebrities are fighting back.
Ms. Lee, please summon the Geum So Ri defendants.
Yes.
Yes, this is Prosecutor Office 312.
Oh, hello.
Please hold one minute.
Prosecutor, it's your father calling.
What? My father?
Yes.
Why is he calling the office?
Yes, this is Prosecutor Ma Hye Ri.
Yes, Prosecutor Ma.
This is Office 312's Prosecutor Ma Hye Ri.
What's the occasion?
My house?
You don't have to worry about the security.
I worry about what you're eating.
I won't eat just anything, so don't worry.
Don't eat just anything.
Only eat what I bring you.
Aren't you scared?
No, I'm not scared at all.
How can you not be scared?
You didn't sleep last night, did you?
No, I slept really well.
I let you get your own place because of work,
so behave well.
One mistake and that's the end of living on your own.
Yes.
Especially, having men come over.
That's completely forbidden.
What men? They are completely forbidden to enter.
Okay.
I really think this is much better than our house.
What's better? This is all wide open.
Who lives in that house?
Oh, there...?
Yeah.
Ah... well...
You don't even know who lives there?
I don't really come out here much.
Well, how long can you really expect to live on your own?
It's been a long time since we've been in this situation.
Just like the last time, we'll do the same.
When opportunities like these come, investigators, officers...
thank you.
Make sure no one gets injured and...
let's do it!
Let's do it!
So cool.
The crow is in flight. The crow is in flight.
The ship is sailing.
This is the latest line of Gioberni.
This article is the real thing.
This one is defective.
I'm sorry.
Is this leaving for Japan?
Yes, you're correct.
Who are you?
Seoul Central District Public Prosecutor's Office Division of Counterfeits, Investigator Cha Myung Soo.
Everyone here is under arrest for production of counterfeit goods.
Oh, you're working hard.
I think there's some misunderstanding.
Get him!
Come here!
Good job!
Are there any injuries?
Including, Kim Dong Seok and Lee Moon Ae, the domestic dealers,
and the international dealers, 8 people were arrested altogether.
The factory workers were also brought in for questioning.
What about the goods?
All the counterfeit goods were seized.
The contracts and goods with Hong Kong and Japan were seized as well.
Okay, okay, good job.
You worked really hard.
I feel a three year old indigestion just went away.
Don't you?
I just did my job.
Hey, hey, hey,
catching the god of counterfeits, Kim Dong Seok, is a huge feat.
3 years ago it was $300 million.
Add today... how much is that guy worth?
Then you need to incorporate his charges from three years ago and proceed..
Okay, okay.
It's the weekend, so get some rest and
Kim Dong Seok...
just shake it off.
Yes.
Oh! Sunbaenim. Sunbaenim.
The country's god of counterfeit, Kim Dong Seok, captured!
Congratulations!
It's the weekend, so what are you doing here at this hour?
I didn't go home last night.
I wanted to drive you home.
I'll drive.
You must be so tired.
You'll get into an accident if you doze off.
I won't get into an accident.
I'm afraid I'll die in an accident.
Three years ago, my wife died of cancer.
I enjoyed being a Prosecutor so much, the work was so much fun,
I moved around departments,
from the Special Crimes Division
to the Violent Crimes Division.
I lived with excitement; I went out every time.
During that time, she developed stomach cancer.
Oh my.
She went to treatment by herself.
She suffered by herself.
I didn't know anything.
I didn't see her die.
I was out trying to catch Kim Dong Seok.
Oh my...
I was out of my mind.
I thought if I didn't go, she couldn't leave.
But,
she left and...
I can't let her go.
Sunbaenim...
I don't want to talk about this anymore.
That's why...
you are not right for me.
You make me feel uncomfortable.
But I...
Don't make me feel uncomfortable.
Are you by chance, crying right now?
You were waiting all night.
Did you miss him?
Did he not catch him?
Why are you crying?
Because, he's so cool.
Because Yoon sunbae is so cool, the tears won't stop.
He said it's been three years since his wife died,
but he can't let go.
So he can't let her go.
What's so cool about that?
It's been three years and he can't let her go.
That's so cool.
What am I going to do?
I finally caught Kim Dong Seok after three years.
So can you come back?
My arms are going to fall off!
Are you going to drink it or not?
I never said I wanted it.
I can't stand to watch you.
Why don't you just shrivel up under the sun?
I guess this is how dried fish stock is made.
Why are you getting angry with me? I'm the one that got surprised.
If you don't want it, you should just say so. Why make my arms almost fall off?
I'm not in a good mood and
I don't want to drink by myself.
Dang! You're just like somebody I know.
You poke her the wrong way and you don't know where she'll take off.
My... this... this is your fault.
Wow, it's about time.
Finally you're the Ma Hye Ri I know.
What did I do that you're behaving this way towards me?
Ms. Ma Hye Ri, I know...
Yes?
What do you want to do with Yoon Se Jun?
What are you talking about?
If Prosecutor Yoon likes you too, what would you do?
Well then... we'd just like each other.
Then why did you do that earlier?
Prosecutor Yoon is a widowed, single father.
Didn't you say he was someone you shouldn't fall in love with?
That... Why... can't I love him?
So then...
Yoon Se Jun...
do you love him?
Do you love him?
Why are you asking me that?
If you really love him, I'll help you.
What can you help me with?
Making Prosecutor Yoon your man.
Really?
Let's see if you can take responsibility without backing out.
Think it through.
Taking responsibility?
You're impulsive and you do whatever you want.
Yoon Se Jun has lots of emotional scars.
So your feelings for Prosecutor Yoon,
do you think he'll accept them?
What about Prosecutor Yoon's feelings?
Do you have the ability to accept his emotional scars?
Think about it.
If you can't take responsibility, then give up now.
If not, let me know.
I'll help you.
Do you admit to creating counterfeit goods?
Ah, hello.
Prosecutor.
The defendants from Geum So Ri's case are here.
Yes.
She is the student's guardian.
I'm very sorry.
First, have a seat.
Have a seat.
Ms. Park Hui Jee, Ms. Kim Eun Dong, Ms. Lee Hye Kyung,
all three of you wrote libelous articles against actress Geum So Ri.
So you're being sued for libel.
The charge is a violation of the usage regulations
laid out by the Ministry of Information and Communications. (Like the U.S. FCC)
You understand?
Yes.
Miss Kim Eun Dong, posted 67 libelous comments.
Ms. Park Hui Jee, 279.
Ms. Lee Hye Kyung, 196.
Ms. Park Hui Jee, pregnancy rumors, childbirth rumors,
three chaebol sponsors.
I just wrote I read it somewhere.
It was just for fun.
Lee Hye Kyung,
you stated that Geum So Ri looked like your cheating husband's girlfriend.
So it was a way to vent your anger.
I had nowhere to vent my anger.
Do you know what kind of emotional damage words can inflict?
I know from experience.
It can even kill a person.
What would you do if she committed suicide?
Eun Dong, reflect on your actions and write it down.
Eun Dong's mother will write that you will guide your daughter so she won't commit a crime like this again.
Yes.
Park Hui Jee and Lee Hye Kyung,
you think about your actions and write about the consequences.
Let me see what you're thinking and your remorse,
then I'll decide on the punishment.
- Yes. - Yes.
Good job everyone.
I'll read them thoroughly.
Ms. Prosecutor, I'm really begging for leniency.
Don't worry too much.
She's still young so we'll figure it out.
Ms. Lee Hye Kyung,
just forget about the woman who looks like Geum So Ri.
Find a man that looks like Choi Woo Sung.
You have to let go of the past for the future to come.
Ms. Prosecutor, where did you learn such cool phrases?
Ah, that...
Prosecutor Lee has some experience with grudge cases,
so I wrote them down and memorized them
I see... so that phrase was Prosecutor Lee's as well?
"You have to let go of the past for the future to come."
Oh, that...
That...
You have to let go of the past for the future to come.
Hey! Weird lawyer!
Hey! The friendly Mr. In Woo!
This.
You think I can use this?
What is that?
This is... Yoon sunbae and I have never eaten out... just the two of us.
How can a guy's place have all this?
You have all sorts of things.
How can a girl's house not have anything?
What are you making?
Since Prosecutor Ma has to eat light, Vietnamese summer rolls.
Since Prosecutor Yoon eats hearty meals,
it'll be nutritious rice balls.
But how did you think of this?
Vietnamese summer rolls and rice balls?
There's nothing that moves a person like good food.
I don't mean that.
How did you think of the idea to make the food?
Because I said I would help you.
For you to hook up with Prosecutor Yoon.
I told you.
You're doing all this work...
I hope it works out well.
Did you send Superman the message?
Are you sure there was no Kryptonite to block the message?
I personally went myself.
How can a man be so good at cooking?
When you live on your own, your cooking automatically improves.
I think... I really... appreciate this.
Not "I think", but "I appreciate this".
Yes, I really appreciate this.
What will you repay this favor?
How will I repay this favor?
Write me one too.
What?
Wonder Woman business agreement.
Wonder Woman business agreement?
Since you're a woman, we'll make it Wonder Woman.
If Seo In Woo needs something,
just one time, no matter what, you'll come running.
I'm doing all this,
at least you can do that much, if you have a conscience.
I guess.
"Certain Restrictions"
"Requests abusing the prosecutor's job are prohibited."
"Requests after 2am are prohibited, due to beauty rest."
Is that good?
Victory! Success!
Why do you look so sad?
You said you had something to eat,
but you're giving me leftovers?
I thought of you so I made extra.
Seo In Woo is cooking because of a woman.
I cooked a lot for you too.
Was I ever a woman to you?
Was that what you wanted?
I'm just saying I never cooked for a man I liked.
If you get one, let me know. I'll cook for you.
For my BFF, everything is possible.
Do you really want Ma Hye Ri and Yoon Se Jun to get together?
If Ma Hye Ri wants it.
The kind of love Ma Hye Ri wants...
I want her to have it.
You're sincere about helping her.
While I can, I want give everything Ma Hye Ri wants.
Be good to her.
Bin, what is it? Does it taste bad?
N... no. It's really good.
Bin, why aren't you asleep, it's late.
Dad,
Mommy said that even if I lied,
as long as I confess before the day is over, it's okay right?
She did.
She wanted me to tell that to you.
So, since it's not midnight yet, I'll confess.
Is there something you lied about?
Not saying is the same as lying, right?
Is there something you didn't tell me?
I'm inviting you to dinner.
Whenever I need you, just one time,
no matter what, come running to me.
Dummy.
Why is she walking like that?
What happened?
I... got stood up.
What?
You were waiting all this time?
I now understand suffering for love.
Suffering for love?
Words are quite strange.
What my brain hears and what my heart hears, are very different.
You're quite magnificent.
After waiting four hours for a man, you finally understand "suffering for love"?
Why are you getting so mad?
The food?
Where's the food you took?
I left it in front of Yoon sunbae's house.
What?
How can I throw away good food?
So the person who stood you up,
can taste the food you made for him?
Well, the food was so good.
But it's still food.
Do you think he'll eat it?
