Hey, isn't that Cha Eun Gyeong?
[Exclusive: Cha Eun Gyeong's Husband Says His Wife Has an Office Husband...]
["Office husband"] ["National divorce attorney"]
["Office Husband," a strong cause for divorce] [Making an image of a lovely couple]

[I'm sure there's something more to this.] [Revenge affair?]

[You should drop out voluntarily.]
Office husband?
Wow...
[Case 05: Office Husband]
Honey, you heard what the attorney said, right?
That Cha Eun Gyeong refused to an agreement?
Yes, I don't think she wants this to be over quickly.
Although Han Yu Ri is her representative,
I'm sure Jung Woo Jin is controlling everything.
I'm sure he did.
Since Jung Woo Jin likes Cha Eun Gyeong.
I knew it.
They actually might've gotten together before you.
The two went to out-of-town trials so many times at work, too.
She wouldn't have gone that far.
Cha Eun Gyeong doesn't even have the time to eat, let alone an affair.
Is it possible for nothing to happen for a man and a woman
to work together for more than 10 years?
I'm sure most people at work also know by now.
Are you saying there's something you know?
Just tell me if you're keeping something from me.
They might've done it first.
It's too unfair if we're the only ones who are vilified.
It's unfair.
The trial is only a few days away.
I don't think we can just stay put.
It's definitely not adultery.
It's not adultery, huh?
Also, Reporter, I don't know if I should tell you this.
What is it?
Cha Eun Gyeong is actually the one who has a thing with her fellow attorney.
Does she have a thing with her fellow attorney?
It's something like an office husband.
She sounded like her marriage was so happy on TV.
They were all lies, huh?
We haven't slept together for more than three years.
That might've been when it started.
Geez...
Yes.
What's the hurry with a counterclaim right now?
No, please submit a counterclaim right now.
So people would also think both parties are at fault, not just one.
Fine. I'll do it right away. Happy now?
Does she think she's Cha Eun Gyeong just because she worked under her?
What a jinsang*. (Rude client)
[Episode 5]
Let's go to my office.
Hello.
- Hello. - Hi.
I'm sorry, Jung Woo Jin.
Why would you apologize to me?
For making you hear something filthy because of me.
Are you apologizing in Kim Ji Sang's place right now?
You apologize for him since you aren't officially divorced yet?
Well, yes. It's not my fault.
But it's still because of me.
- Are you taking the blame for your husband? - Stop fanning the flame.
Forget the apology.
Just let me know if I can help in any way.
A press conference, for example.
Are you crazy?
Why not? I just say I'm not your office husband.
And that the world is too cruel for handsome people. Right?
Is it because of what the employees might think?
No.
I'll come up with a plan, so don't worry.
I won't worry.
- I'll clean it up. - I'm going to lose it today.
- I'll do it. Don't- No, I'll do it. - I-I'll do it. Don't touch it.
Look here-
I said I'll do it!
What's wrong with me today, seriously?
Let me see.
Cha Eun Gyeong... No way...
Crazy.
What are you two doing right now?
No, m-my finger was-
Don't you start having funny thoughts, Han Yu Ri.
It's really not true, right?
You, too?
You saw the article?
What article?
Could there be more than this?
[Counterclaim]
Attorney Han Yu Ri, CEO is looking for you.
[The defendant's marriage was already ruined by Cha Eun Gyeong's affair]
You can guess why I wanted to see you, right?
It's because of Attorney Cha, right?
Well, I'm sure they're just throwing whatever they can find at each other right now.
But if there's even one percent chance of Cha Eun Gyeong's office-
W-What was it called again?
It's office husband.
Is there any chance she's having such a relationship with Attorney Jung Woo Jin?
No. Though I haven't been here for long,
as someone who saw the two of them up close every day,
it's absolutely not the case.
Since you've tried being an attorney,
I'm sure you know nothing is absolute anymore.
Attorney Cha Eun Gyeong I've seen is
someone whose interest only lies in winning her cases by any means
and raising the company's revenue.
And she trusts Attorney Jung Woo Jin as a human being.
There mustn't be any damage done to the company's reputation.
For now, don't just trust her unconditionally.
Properly verify the facts first.
Yes.
I'm sure it's absolutely not the case, but I'll check it to make sure.
Take care now.
- Yes. - Attorney Cha,
I'll see you at the VIP consultation room right now.
You can just come to my office. Why tell me to come?
Attorney- I mean...
In the case of the plaintiff, Cha Eun Gyeong,
I'm the attorney, and you're the client.
So, I'd like to clarify this relationship.
You've come a long way.
Before we come up with a measure,
I must confirm something first as your attorney.
Confirm?
- No way. - Attorney Jung Woo Jin and you...
- Hey, Han Yu Ri. - aren't having an affair, right?
Watch what you say.
It doesn't even deserve a response.
You're the one who told me this.
Don't trust everything they say.
That's what all the cheaters say.
They all say their wives and husbands have delusional jealousy.
By chance, did you believe that?
I'm speechless.
Are you telling me to explain Attorney Jung Woo Jin to you or something-
The fact they even submitted a counterclaim means
they might've secured certain evidence, right?
What evidence when it's not a fact?
You got betrayed in your first case, and you're taking it out on me here?
I'm only asking a question I'd have to ask naturally.
Han Yu Ri.
Attorney Han, if you're my attorney,
you need to bring me a plan on how to crash
that absurd counterclaim and the media manipulation.
What are you doing?
As you've taught me,
I'm doing my minimum due diligence.
Please don't be like that and answer me.
We aren't.
We absolutely aren't.
An attorney is asking a question for her client.
Why are you getting so angry?
For my sake?
I think I appointed the wrong attorney.
I'm doing my best here.
Don't say you're doing your best so easily
and go take measures right now as my attorney should.
[Cha Eun Gyeong, Kim Ji Sang]
[Choi Sa Ra, Jung Woo Jin]
[Office Husband...]
[Affair]
Um...
Attorney Han, did you eat?
I'm not so sure if I should let you buy me food like this in our current situation.
I can see why you'd feel that way.
But there's nothing to worry about, so relax and eat.
Are you two trying to get over it by denying it
and telling me not to worry?
This isn't that simple.
The rumor's slowly- I mean, the news article is spreading.
And this might negatively affect Attorney Cha's trial.
You're right.
You're absolutely right.
That's why I wanted to eat together and think of a countermeasure.
First off, I want to hear about the two of you in detail.
Well, I'm also a victim in this situation.
An explanation? Okay.
It's right for me to explain since you're also Sunbae's attorney.
Attorney Cha was...
Wait, you're not doing my case,
but this female attorney is going to take my case?
Why?
Well, the thing is...
No one has done more divorce cases than I have in this law firm.
- You must have faith in me. - Gosh...
how can a woman fight a man equally in court?
I won't fight equally.
I'll be fighting at an advantage.
In an age where female attorneys were scarce,
Attorney Cha broke through the glass ceiling with her own strength.
And I witnessed that up close.
[Defendant] We'll give 10 million won, so let's just settle.
Who is that settlement for?
We'll never settle on those terms.
Attorney Cha, how can you refuse to cooperate like this?
Even if this goes to verdict, the alimony will be 10 million won.
Just settle it at 10 million won, which is economical for both-
If this goes to verdict, even if the alimony ends up being 10 million won,
Your Honor will write the defendant's habitual physical abuse
caused the marriage of the defendant and the plaintiff to be destroyed in the verdict.
For my client, that one sentence is
more economical than ending the lawsuit quickly.
Who doesn't hit their wives like I do?
How dare you repeat "physical abuse"? How rude!
Your Honor, you heard him, right?
A criminal is running his mouth in court like that.
Will it be right to end the case for 10 million won without a verdict?
Damn it!
We'll go to the verdict.
I think she was in her third year.
She looked like she was born to be an attorney in my eyes.
And I ended up sincerely respecting her.
Even now.
You were really cool earlier, Sunbae.
I can understand cutting off the defendant.
But you even cut off the judge.
Isn't it a bit risky to be hostile toward the judge?
The judge was forcing an agreement.
"Agreement."
This means that both parties must agree, as the definition says.
How dare he order me around?
The judge must've been trying to help the two parties see eye to eye.
That's your problem.
Sorry?
You're way too soft.
A representative only needs to care about the client's interests.
Why does the judge's opinion matter?
I'm not sure. Well, that's your opinion.
And I also have my opinion.
What I said is right. It's right, no matter what.
Keep that in mind.
Yes, Sunbaenim.
Let's take a shot.
She was so cool and respectable.
So, I always rooted for her by her side.
The only thing I can do for Sunbae, who seemed so busy...
was bringing her coffee.
Yes?
Sunbae, your coffee.
Leave it there.
Here you go.
Drinking coffee was something like a forced brake.
Because Sunbae seemed exhausted sometimes...
and lonely.
I can already tell you're planning not to go home again today.
Just reading over this case's records once took me three hours.
I'm getting started with the writing now.
Whoa, whoa, easy now. You should relax first.
- You didn't eat dinner again, did you? - Jung Woo Jin.
Could you please leave?
You always say you can't finish it by tomorrow.
But you always finish it in the end.
If you've got that much data on yourself,
let's allow yourself to eat at the very least.
[Railway Restaurant]
It's always the basic kimbap.
- It comes out the fastest. - Let's at least
eat tuna kimbap. Okay?
That's right.
Since I met you...
Here.
What's this?
On one of those busy days...
she suddenly told me she's getting married.
[Kim Ji Sang & Cha Eun Gyeong]
Wait, w-what's-
Why are you so surprised?
It doesn't make sense.
That I'm getting married? It doesn't make sense?
You only eat the kimbap that comes out the fastest.
When did you have time to date?
Didn't I tell you I went on a blind date three months ago?
- The physician? - Yes.
And get married only after three months?
Rather than dating for a long time with so little time, just getting married is more efficient.
Did you find out what kind of a person he is?
Yes, we're two years apart, and he's a doctor, as you know.
- He's ordinary. - N-No, that's not what I'm talking about.
Does he suit you well, Sunbae?
He's perfect for me.
First off, he cooks.
- Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? - You'll come for sure, right?
Let's get going.
You should hurry up and get married, too.
- Shall we go? - Like finishing a legal letter one by one,
that's how she got married.
Just because you're a divorce attorney, you don't necessarily have an eye for people.
Kim Ji Sang is doing whatever he can to bring down Cha Eun Gyeong.
So, you need to hold your ground, Attorney Han.
So, you're saying you've respected Attorney Cha and
you still respect her, huh?
That's correct.
Kim Ji Sang knows all of this, too.
What a petty man.
Attorney Jung.
From this moment on, you mustn't let others find out about your feelings.
What feelings?
Your feeling of deep love for Attorney Cha.
I thought...
I had explained it well so far.
Was it hard to understand?
You said you were the victim earlier, right?
It's true you're a victim, Attorney Jung.
People are criticizing you due to a baseless claim.
However, you're not angry or find it unfair as a victim.
You're actually only worried about Attorney Cha.
Do I need to explain more?
Of course, I'd worry.
I told you. She's a sunbae I respect.
I don't think I can eat this meal.
You said we should plan a measure, right?
I don't think I can plan a measure with you, either.
Attorney Han.
I know you support Attorney Cha now.
So, I'll believe you'll stay put, so you won't do her harm.
I hope you won't think I'm crossing the line as a hoobae.
Because I'm speaking as Cha Eun Gyeong's representative, not a hoobae.
Attorney Cha told me a representative must always act in favor of her client's interests.
You saw the article, right?
Yes, I did. Daebak.
I knew it was suspicious, but I guess I wasn't the only one who felt it.
Of course! Everyone knows.
Know what?
Attorney Jung likes Attorney Cha. Can't you just tell?
Watch what you say!
If someone hears you, that's defamation right there.
Attorney Jung is totally acting like her Daddy-Long-Legs right now.
Gosh, I envy Cha Eun Gyeong.
If I were her, I'd change lanes right away.
It's only an absurd rumor.
You can't just assume it's true right away.
I've never seen the two of them being inappropriate.
I'm sure they never seemed inappropriate.
Because it's a one-sided love from Jung Woo Jin.
I'm going to root for Attorney Jung Woo Jin.
- I hope they end up together. - Me, too.
That's right. Did you know Choi Sa Ra took the day off?
- She's the mistress, right? - Totally.
I think she caused the problem and took the day off.
- It's suspicious. - Please! What if someone hears you?
Everyone here knows.
Director Kim, I won't beat around the bush and get to the point.
Please make today your last day of work.
[12 years ago]
What kind of a dad quits his job to raise a child?
There's no law saying a woman should raise a child.
I should be by my daughter's side since she needs me.
[Five years ago] Going all-in isn't even enough right now.
At this rate, it'll be hard for you to grow as a doctor.
Being a doctor is also a technical job.
If you don't practice continuously, you'll get rusty.
You're home.
I made an omelet, Jae Hee's favorite.
But she barely took a bite.
You can go now. Thank you for your work.
Yes, then. I'll get going now.
Jae Hee asked me if her mom and dad were divorcing.
- So? - I think it's time you told her now.
Jae Hee.
What? I'm doing my homework.
I have something to tell you.
Are you busy?
It'll only take a minute.
I have a vocab test tomorrow.
I need to memorize 60 English vocabs before I go to sleep.
And I have an hour and a half until bedtime.
You're very busy. But...
it's something I have to tell you.
Can we talk tomorrow?
Sure.
You've never had something like this at home, right?
The housekeeper did make it before.
Gosh, is that so?
The crab stew itself isn't the issue.
A couple should eat it while sitting together and have a conversation.
Cha Eun Gyeong should've stayed single instead of getting married.
She's unqualified as a human being.
It'll get cold. Hurry up and eat.
Did you know this?
- What? - It's your first time talking ill of Cha Eun Gyeong.
It is? I don't think so.
It's your first time blatantly saying Cha Eun Gyeong
is unqualified as a human being.
Is that right?
I won't stop at nothing.
I decided not to be afraid.
Let's stay strong.
Yes, don't worry anymore.
Everyone will be too busy trying to stop
her office husband story to attack again.
I'll try to meet with Attorney Han Yu Ri.
She should understand it's better for both parties to agree to settle.
We even submitted a counterclaim. Will an agreement be possible?
You're supposed to initiate an agreement after a counterclaim.
Since we showed them we're no easy prey, they might just let go.
We're not close enough to drink coffee together.
It's interesting.
Why did you take the day off?
A counterclaim with no basis and the news...
You acted recklessly, and it got out of your hand, didn't it?
With no basis?
You wouldn't know because you're still pretty new.
But those two always had rumors about them at work.
Don't tell me you thought the employees' gossip would work as evidence.
Are you testing me to see if I have evidence?
We will take care of proving our claims.
So you don't need to worry about it.
If we sue you for defamation over this,
you know you won't be okay, don't you?
Attorney Han, you'll have to study the law more.
I didn't publicly state it as the truth anywhere, so what defamation?
I merely submitted a written statement to the court
and the reporter only did his job.
She thinks she's an attorney or something.
You're really one brave soul.
Could you handle this against the masses?
Let me tell you since you mentioned the masses.
The damage is greater for Attorney Cha since she's famous.
Since you're Attorney Cha's attorney, it'd be better to convince her to settle.
You're ordering me around now?
I told you many times already.
But my client has no interest in agreeing to settle.
Since you said your client doesn't,
it looks like you're interested.
Isn't it better for you to close the case quickly, too?
For Attorney Cha, dividing the wealth quickly, which she has to do anyway,
it'd be better for her and Jae Hee as well.
The fact is you want this to be over before rumors spread.
But you're talking as if it's beneficial for someone else,
which I find shameless and cowardly.
Attorney Han,
think about it carefully.
Since you're her representative,
what will be better for your client?
I'll see the end of this if you mess with me more.
Geez!
Attorney Cha.
Did you come up with a countermeasure?
I just met with Choi Sa Ra.
I'm sure she talked about settling.
Yes.
Attorney, I also hope...
you lean toward the idea of a settlement.
Why should I do that?
I told you already, Attorney Cha.
You're too full of the desire for revenge right now.
That way, the division of property will happen anyway and
the reputation you've built so far will fall to the ground.
And Jae Hee will...
end up getting more hurt.
Isn't it you who's afraid, Attorney Han?
As you've taught me,
I thought about this as Attorney Han Yu Ri and the human Han Yu Ri separately.
Attorney Han Yu Ri concluded that she doesn't want to recommend
her client to continue this litigation where the outcome
is already obvious with mudslinging on the way.
It's so easy for a law firm employee with
10 years of experience to gaslight an attorney in her first year, huh?
Attorney Cha.
You know that's not the case right now.
I expressed numerous times that I wouldn't settle this with my attorney.
Bring me a different countermeasure.
I'll give it some more thought.
Why that little.
- Knock, knock. - Hey.
Han Yu Ri is so full of herself.
Kids these days think they can do whatever if they get a title instead of being grateful.
Why? I like how she speaks up to her sunbae,
unlike how we used to just obey.
So...
you just watched her leave without eating after interrogating you?
I told her that I respect you a lot.
I cleared up her misunderstanding, too.
How persistent.
She's really persistent.
Does she go to an academy?
There must be an academy that teaches how to get on my nerves.
Sunbae, I think you can count on Attorney Han.
You can say that after what she did to you?
What a saint.
You're too soft.
Yes?
Attorney Han, this is the case record for your countryside schedule today.
Sorry?
[Verdict]
Sodaeri?
Where's this, and what's this case?
You didn't hear about the outcall to the countryside?
What?
Attorney Cha said it'll be good training for the new hires.
The new hires?
She said you're an inexperienced driver,
so she told Attorney Jeon to accompany you.
What? N-No, I can go by myself.
I told Attorney Jeon about it,
and he said he'll come with you.
Is this revenge for telling her to settle?
Is she the icon of revenge or something?
H-Hey, I'm here.
- Long time- - We can take my car-
- What was that? - What was that?
- No, the- - Y-You can go ahead.
We can take my car.
It's fine. Just get in. Let's go.
- The belt is over there. - Y-Yes.
Sodaeri? Where's this? I've never heard of this place.
I think we came quite a distance.
Will we be able to go back today?
Seriously. We might have to spend the night at this rate.
I don't think this place even has a motel.
A motel?
Okay! Your sunbae will buy us a third round.
All right. Let's go get B.B.
[Motel Eunyu]
- Let's listen to- Y-Yes. - Should we listen to music? O-Okay.
[Sodaeri Supermarket]
How do you do, ma'am?
Do you know where 557 Mt. Sodaeri is?
It's probably about down there somewhere.
- That way? - Yes, it's far.
- Okay. Thank you. - Thank you!
557 Mt. Sodaeri.
- Up there? - Yes.
- I said it's not. - No, she's right.
Do you happen to know where 557 Mt. Sodaeri is?
- Over there? - Yes.
- Okay. Thank you! - Sure.
Hello, sir.
557 Mt. Sodaeri-
You have to go all the way over there.
It's further away.
- Thank you. - Take care.
Further away?
No, I'm sure it's pretty close.
No one would know a major law firm makes you do things like this.
I need to report this to the Department of Labor, too.
You can't report it. We got paid for the trip.
- What? We got paid- - W-Whoa!
- Thanks. - Sure.
- Are you okay? - Yes.
What a moron.
You even got called an office husband.
You still stick around Cha Eun Gyeong?
Get yourself together.
I've never crossed the line
nor do anything to be criticized by you.
Hey, Cha Eun Gyeong is valuable only for the firm.
She's the worst woman for a man.
No wonder her man had an affair.
What do you like about a divorcee with a kid?
- A woman like her shouldn't- - Please stop.
You fool.
You're not waiting for Cha Eun Gyoeong to divorce, are you?
Is this how you show you grew up without a mom?
Do you think you have the right to say that to me?
Don't pretend to care about me after all this time
and reflect on yourself.
The right? What about you, then?
Do you think you have the right to inherit this firm?
I warned you many times.
You won't gain anything from getting on my bad side.
You become more and more pathetic.
I'll take my leave.
Why that little.
- Hello. - Hello.
You're Ms. Koo Hee Soon, right?
- We're from Daejeong Law Firm. - Yes.
Gosh, it's bitter. [Marriage Certificate]
Whoa, what's this? Is it arrowroot extract?
[Marriage Certificate]
So, you're saying you registered for marriage again, right?
What's the frame for the marriage certificate?
- I've never seen this in my life. - Me, neither.
I mean, you can fight and make up after.
We only need to get the contingency fee.
You know, right? Thirty million won.
I can't give it to you.
I mean, the contract said the contingency is for after we get divorced.
- But we got back together. - We got back together.
There's no reason to pay you!
We diligently processed your wife's litigation and
got you the division of property verdict.
Getting back together is what happened after that.
The contingency fee was for divorcing! Look, I said we didn't divorce!
No, you did divorce. You just remarried the same person.
So, please stop it now and pay us.
Honey, just stay put.
We did do a wrong thing.
What's so wrong about a married couple living together for love?
People don't even get married these days. The country should reward us!
Sir, attorneys like us don't like it when you digress. Okay?
People these days only have sex and don't take responsibility.
It's the end of the world.
We've been in love for 20 years without changing!
By the way, we paid off our debts and filed for bankruptcy.
We don't have money.
Hold on!
You've never once stopped loving for 20 years,
but you filed for divorce and paid off the debt.
And you registered for marriage again.
Your divorce was fictitious, right?
Many people mistake it as a fake divorce-
I'm sorry.
He was running all over the place to pay off our debt, hardly able to eat.
And I filed a fake lawsuit to save myself.
Yes, I know.
I should go to jail. I'll take the punishment.
He did nothing wrong. Okay?
Why would you?
She just did what I told her.
She didn't know anything and just did what I told her to do.
- If you want to report, just report me! - How can you do that?
Did you forget we're one in body and soul?
You can't. If you go to jail, I'm coming with you.
Silly! I'll never let that happen.
- No. - Please take me!
No, it was my doing. Fraudulent lawsuit. Yes.
Okay. Please stop the display of affection.
You'll just slither away from your crimes?
- I won't let that happen. - You're really too much!
You're really being too much!
You two are being too much here!
- What did you say? - Please stop it!
All of this happened while trying to protect our family.
Please...
He knows what he did was wrong.
So, please have mercy.
Honey.
Gosh, does this even make sense?
Attorney!
I'm sorry.
This is all I can give you.
Please take it with you.
Thank you.
Y-You know, in my life...
there wasn't a day...
I didn't love that man.
Not a single day.
I'm so sorry for deceiving you.
I'll take the punishment.
So...
I'll go to jail.
Fictitious divorce and fraudulent lawsuit.
Who knew all these people in the textbooks actually existed?
By the way, we couldn't get the money.
Let's file for default first thing tomorrow in the office.
Since you're busy these days, I'll take care of that.
Hey, Attorney Jeon.
Can you not do it, please?
Let's just report the debtor doesn't have any executable property.
It'll just be forgotten.
Why would you do that?
After we became attorneys, we met a lot of people, right?
But it's my first time seeing people who protect their love.
"Yes.
That's what a married couple is supposed to be like.
Though they might deceive others together,
they won't deceive each other." That's what I thought.
- Here you go. - Aigoo, thank you.
- Gosh, it looks delicious. - Thank you.
Excuse me, ma'am.
- One bottle of beer, please. - Okay.
All right. It's C.B. today, bought with per diem.
Chapagetti and beer!
- Here you go. - Thank you.
Thank you.
Can you really drink beer?
Aigoo, don't worry. I've got it all planned.
Beer for you, Attorney Han.
- And I'll drink water. - Huh?
What's this?
Only I'm drinking? What about you?
I have to drive you home safely, Attorney Han.
Right, the car.
All right. Cheers.
Great work again today.
- Looks good. - Let's eat.
- It's delicious. - It's amazing.
I feel alive now.
Hey, whether you'll believe it or not,
it was my first time.
What was?
That night.
I-It's the same for me.
Hey.
Which is why I'm saying this...
- let's- - Let's-
We were both drunk...
and since it was the first time for both of us,
let's just consider it a good experience and leave it at that.
I don't want us to be awkward at work.
I really like to talk about work
and talk smack about Attorney Cha with you.
It's really fun.
I felt this all the time.
But we're really different for sure.
I was thinking about something else.
Since we were walking down from there.
And to be honest, I wanted to say it in the car on the way here.
What did you want to say?
That we should try dating.
Putting aside being a man and a woman, colleagues, and attorneys...
let's just get to know each other as
Han Yu Ri and Jeon Eun Ho, ever so casually.
A relationship between a man and a woman...
can never become a casual thing.
Just like what the debtor said earlier, responsibilities are bound to follow.
That's why...
I decided not to get married in my life.
Deciding not to marry and not dating are two different things, right?
Even if you're anti-marriage, you can still date.
I'm sorry, Attorney Jeon.
I hope we won't talk about these things again after today.
And establishing myself is more important to me.
What does it mean to establish yourself?
You studied hard for the test and became an awesome attorney.
We're still in our first year.
We're busy newbies who get scolded and lectured every day.
So, I want us to depend on each other as we endure together,
in a progressive manner.
Do I need to say more?
All right. If you want to remain friends, I understand.
Thanks.
Still, remember this.
I like you.
I'll go back on my own.
You know I have to bring a plan for Attorney Cha by tomorrow, right?
- No, this is the middle of nowhere. I'll drop you off. - It's fine.
It's okay. I'm fine.
I'll get going first.
- Is it still not time yet? - Who knows?
Seriously.
All right. Okay...
There you go.
♫ There's a small mirror in my heart ♫
♫ No one bothers to look inside ♫
Aigoo, thank you.
The next one is at 4:00 p.m., right?
♫ I'm looking ever so exhausted and tiny ♫
♫ What's gotten into me? ♫
In my life, there wasn't a day I didn't love that man.
Not a single day.
What is love?
So, what will Mom and Dad do?
What? A-About what?
The divorce.
You said you won't get a divorce.
I collected them so I don't get a divorce.
I was going to stop the divorce with this evidence.
Is love the pain that exists somewhere
between love and affection?
If time passes and if I keep doing this...
- So, divorce me, at least. - I won't get a divorce.
I won't get a divorce.
We'll accept it.
I'll do the same as well.
I'll withdraw my case.
will I be able to...
Still, remember this.
I like you.
understand those people and love one day?
♫ Every single one of those ♫
♫ They slowly eat away at me ♫

De facto bigamy?
Yes, it's a concept attorneys are familiar with.
But it's an unfamiliar concept for most people. So it'll go viral.
- An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth? - A keyword for a keyword.
Attorney Han, did this ever happen to you while working before?
An experience where the textbook examples came alive.
Choi Sa Ra and Kim Ji Sang.
It's de facto bigamy.
When I saw it in the textbook, I doubted anyone would do that.
But they were right by my side.
De facto bigamy, huh?
Kim Ji Sang and Choi Sa Ra also threw the office husband out there
to discredit you, aiming for it to go viral.
So, we should do the same and throw de facto bigamy at them, right?
Yes.
Obvious words like adultery and affair
may cause a temporary shock but are easily forgotten.
However, legal terms tend to provoke people's intellectual curiosity, too.
I like that idea.
It'd be great if the reporter who wrote the office husband article
also writes the de facto bigamy article.
That's how we can stop people from shooting their arrows at you.
Pretty good.
I should send you to the countryside from time to time, Attorney Han.
What? Wait, Attorney Cha! That's enough.
So, you're saying Kim Ji Sang really has an affair with her secretary, right?
You know clicks are more important than facts.
And how can a reporter report only the facts?
If you can't report only the facts, you should also report facts.
So, you can continue being a reporter, not a trashy reporter.
[Attorney Han Yu Ri] The article is scheduled to be published today before noon.
- Why didn't you come yesterday? - What?
Yesterday?
I told you yesterday was our camp day.
If Dad wasn't available, you should've come, at least.
I was the only one who was all alone without a parent.
Right.
Right. I'm sorry, Jae Hee.
Auntie was there, right?
If Auntie is there, does that mean you don't need to come?
Gosh...
That's not what I meant.
I was in a situation yesterday.
Jae Hee, I'll come to the English academy later this evening.
I have something I must tell you.
I'll hang out at Sung Hee's place this evening.
Don't come.
Hey, look at this.
"Cha Eun Gyeong... De Facto Bigamy?" What's this?
What's this?
If it's de facto bigamy, is it a double life?
- I feel sorry for her. - For what? She's an attorney.
- Look at this! It's daebak. - Isn't it daebak?
[Daejeong Law Firm]
Hello.
- Hello. - Hello, Attorney Jung.
Hello.
You're here, Attorney Jung.
Did something happen?
Will you take a look at this?
[Attorney Cha Eun Gyeong's husband is in a de facto bigamy relationship]
The wannabe of 20s and 30s.
With Attorney Cha Eun Gyeong's first court date to come,
we're here in front of the family court.
Regarding the suspicion that Attorney Cha
filed for divorce due to her spouse's adultery,
she has officially announced they were all true this morning.
Brace yourself.
I told you, right?
My divorce isn't simply a divorce but a show.
Yes, I understand.
And leave that childish facial expression in this car.
Yes.
What will a divorce of a divorce attorney look like?
Attorney Cha's fans are oddly looking forward to it.
- She's here! - There she is!
Attorney Cha, your first court date is finally here after much controversy.
How do you feel going into trial?
Some say both parties committed adultery, while others say it was just one.
Can you clarify it for us here?
We'd also like a word from her attorney.
I don't wish to fight in front of the entire nation.
I sincerely ask that you protect the other party's privacy.
However, so that my case can become
a good precedent for people who are enduring unsavory times at home...
In other words, I'll do my best to leave a precedent people will need.
The entire country is talking about the phrase "de facto bigamy."
Could you explain what it means exactly?
And leave that childish facial expression in this car.
Please give us a word!
A de facto bigamy is when a legally married person
forms a de facto marriage relationship with someone else while living together.
It means a de facto relationship not protected by law.
- Informally called- - Yes.
You're right.
It's a double life.
Ma'am, Jae Hee has been missing since the recess after the first period.
Choi Sa Ra!
♫ Because you're beautiful ♫
♫ A beautiful stranger ♫
♫ Dressed in an unfitting outfit ♫
♫ Because you're beautiful ♫
♫ A beautiful stranger ♫
♫ Please embrace my withered heart ♫
♫ It'll only last a moment ♫
[Good Partner]
Since the defendant raised her thus far, the defendant should have custody.
The custody was actually the main point.
I think Kim Ji Sang seriously plans to take Jae Hee.
You want to live here? Just the two of us?
I also have the right to choose.
Have you seen Jae Hee? Kim Jae Hee.
We didn't talk about much.
Jae Hee asked me what my relationship is with her dad.
You're messing with the wrong person.
