What about sexual assault? Wake up Korean chaebol

Wake up! Wake up!

Take Criminal No Tae Nam to prison, not the army.

To prison! To prison!

Sexual Predator No Tae Nam

To prison!

Too short.

Sexual predator. No Tae Nam. To prison!

Hey, this one. You can stop cutting.

How long are you going to cut my hair?

Please give me sideburns.



Arrested for sexually assaulting a female student at a club in Gangnam

IM Defense No Tae Nam

will enlist today at the Army Training Center.

As President No Tae Nam enlists, this case is not a private court.

The right to judge is transferred to the military court

Where he will be given a formal military trial.

Hey! Hurry and go!

A few days ago

The key is in the car.

No Tae Nam's arrest warrant is out.

Thanks to the evidence video Se Na sent me.

Okay, I'd like to thank you detective Do.

What's going on this time?

- An arrest warrant has been issued for Chairman No.
- What?



The police obtained the video evidence.

Episode 4

Hey! Stop there.

Come here for a moment.

That bastard!

Oh, thank you.

Stop there!

It's a high speed chase by the cops. What's going on?

Doberman bastard.

He's about to be discharged from the army, but he's being chased by the cops?

Omo, what kind of person did you meet at Cartel?

Did he do something with that terrifying female soldier?

She rode alone with the shyster and took everyone out!

That lady shyster.

is a rare style whom I haven't seen nor heard my entire life.

What are you doing? Why aren't you stepping on the gas and chasing him? Get going!

Yes, Hyeongnim.

What is that? Who is so rude? Son of a bitch—

The female soldier shyster.

Bang!

It's really her! Get going.

What? What are you doing?

LAUNCH
ON

What the? What is this?

Oblivion.

The brain's action of forgetting some fact.

Someone said that oblivion is god's blessing.

No matter what type of pain you suffer,

you can live again in oblivion.

If you don't forget, there is no present.

Cha Wu In

Military Prosecutor Do Bae Man, you will not be discharged.

You have to stay here and fight with me.

Because that's the destiny of a military prosecutor.

Destiny?

With you?

However, when sweet oblivion ends

and realization starts

the moment you have to face the agony which was hidden in oblivion

for the first time hell will open.

Do you know now what you forgot?

I forgot and lived.

Did I live and forget something?

Cha Wu In.

Why the heck are you doing this to me?

Emergency Treatment Center

Missed phone call
My aunt

I see you're awake. You shouldn't get up though.

How did I get here?

Some woman brought you to the ER.

You should stay for a few days to recover.

You shouldn't move too much.

I don't have that kind of time.

Mirror.

I don't want to be here long, so take care of things however you can.

Return things to how they were before I was handcuffed.

I will use my connections quickly so you don't have to stay in a shabby place too long.

Do Bae Man ran by himself, that military bastard.

How should I get him back for this?

Sir, please suppress your emotions for a bit and think logically.

This is much better

than Do Bae Man being caught and exposing your project.

That's true.

He ran away to save himself. If he were caught, he would have confessed everything.

This is all because that good for nothing Do Bae Man actually has a plan, right?

Anyway, why are you here alone? What about mother?

She has no plans to visit you.

What?

Going to visit a suspected criminal of a sexual assault case

would only be feeding reporters, is what she said.

What kind of mom abandons her son like this?

Let's go, Mr. No Tae Nam.

Spray.

Mirror.

IM Defense's Chairman No Tae Nam and singer Allen

were arrested after being discovered at a club in Gangnam.

The two were arrested on suspicion of sexually assaulting a female university student,

and the police have begun investigations on this case.

So bright.

Why did you assault the victim?

Is it true you drugged her?

Do you have anything to say?

No Tae Nam, aren't you ashamed for your mother who became the first female army division head?

Please say something.

We have yet to complete the investigation. Please refrain from questions which suggest guilt.

Amongst us reporters, we know you've committed many wrong-doings in the past.

Do you feel wronged?

- This little wretch won't stop talking.
- Hey, hey.

What did he say?

The phone number you have called is not in service.

Why aren't you picking up your phone?

Are you feeling alright?

You are ridiculous.

You nearly killed me, then took me to the hospital.

Are you messing with me?

I was worried. It's fortunate you weren't too badly injured.

Fortunate? Fortunate?

Why don't you have your red wig on today?

You look better in that than your military uniform.

I am aware you must have many questions.

Let's talk once you've calmed down a bit.

Tell me. Why did you try to kill me?

No. I tried to help you realize.

Stop spouting nonsense and tell me right now.

I can have you arrested for attempted murder.

I will tell you everything before you're relieved of your military position.

I'm also waiting.

What? Waiting?

I'm waiting for you, Prosecutor Do Bae Man,

to escape from oblivion.

Prosecutor Do, what is this?

What'll you do if Cha Wu In finds out?

Cha Wu In? Don't speak that name in front of me.

Then I investigated this for nothing.

What investigation?

You were desperate to dig into her. Didn't you say you needed to investigate Cha Wu In?

You'll be surprised once you see this.

Yes?

Chairman No will be released tomorrow.

That's a relief. Thank you.

I need someone to hold the dog leash tomorrow.

The leash?

You have to redeem yourself for running away that day.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Was it lawyer Yong?

Chairman No Tae Nam, well, he must really be determined.

It's a relief he was released.

What'll you do now?

About No Tae Nam and Prosecutor Cha.

I'll take things one at a time.

We'll figure out Chairman No's military duty first.

Then deal with Cha Wu In.

Stay still. Good boy.

You shouldn't bite the hand that feeds you.

You left saying you'd never see me again,

yet here we are.

Bolt. Bolt.

Again.

I missed you so much, Bolt.

Chairman.

You suffered a lot.

I'm very sorry.

How did you make such a good plan in a hectic situation? I was impressed.

Sorry?

If you had been caught there, you wouldn't have been able to help my military case. Right?

Of course.

I didn't think you'd understand.

Thank you. I will succeed no matter what

at making sure you are exempt from your military service.

The general couldn't come today because of an important appointment.

What could be more important than her son's release from prison?

There's a reunion of her Korean Military Academy classmates.

A reunion?

Allen is still being contained. You were released

because of all the work your mother did to get you out.

No, it's all for herself.

Open the door.

Of course.

Rest well.

I thought of something while I was there, so have a listen.

There's no extradition treaty with Cuba and Uruguay.

I'm thinking I can spend a few years there.

The arrest warrant was rejected after review

but you're unable to leave the country at the moment.

Tell me what steps you are taking now as I'm ready to explode.

According to Article 61 of the Military Service Act and Article 129 of the Enforcement Decree of the Military Service

you can defer enlistment for an unavoidable reason.

And?

Defer enlistment, and during the trial,

follow the course I've set for you, and it is possible you could be exempted.

It's going to be difficult to avoid imprisonment because of the crime which was committed and the evidence.

Chairman, do you really hate the army more than prison?

The detention center you have been in for a few days is very different from prison.

So, what do you want to say right now?

Please join the army.

What are you saying? Is that a countermeasure?

Military trials are not that easy.

If you take this case to a military court,

there is no guarantee you will avoid punishment.

Look here. Military Prosecutor Do Bae Man is saying it's difficult to say.

Then I'll ask one thing.

If all the soldier positions from the judges judging

to the prosecutors prosecuting,

to the guards at the door are filled with his mother's subordinates,

will that trial be difficult?

- You are a military prosecutor who knows best.
- That's—

What is this? Do Bae Man, can't you say anything else?

The decision is up to you, General No and me.

Do Bae Man may not make unsolicited statements.

So the military prosecutor, the lawyer,

and the judge will all do as Mother says.

No matter what, the military always obey.

Yes, Chairman. That's exactly the point.

I think Chairman No decided to enlist.

Good Job, Lawyer.

A toast to General No Wha Yeong!

Cheers!

Thank you, everyone.

- We're thankful.
- Right.

Among our colleagues you are the first to become a division head.

- As expected, No Wha Yeong, don't you agree?
- Right.

Hey, hey. Everyone knows that becoming commander of the 4th division is a free pass to commander of the army.

Of course, of course. She will be the next army commander.

I can't believe our flag bearer will rise to be the commander.

Stop! Stop moving! Stop!

Loyalty!

Commander of the Army, please take care of us.

Hey, hey. You're overdoing it.

What's that? Sit down.

That's too much.

Because I haven't seen you in a while, it tastes good.

Kang In, have a drink too.

I drank a lot.

Give it to someone else.

Calm down and drink with her.

Hey. Let's just move forward in sync.

Even if she is a gangster with stars, she's a classmate.

And a woman. It's kind of rude for a soldier

to have to salute to her.

Hey, are you going to be like that?

Or not that.

I need to pee.

You're all trembling.

He kept on failing to be promoted. He's upset at you for no reason.

Wha Yeong, be understanding.

Usually, even if you can bear starving, can't you stand the stomachache of envy?

You're so right.

- Foolish guy.
- Have a drink.

She can't control her son, but she is the division chief?

Don't make me fall down laughing.

Even so, I am worried. Because of her son, I wonder if Wha Yeong knows she's got a roadblock on the road to success.

The bitch, who is a terrible shooter, how does she talk day in and day out about the espirit de corps?

It's so ridiculous.

Hey. Stop saying that. Don't you know she has great shooting ability?

Hey. How can a soldier be a soldier without this?

It makes me boiling mad.

Why is No Hwa Yeong moving up at warp speed?

Do you think she lobbied the top?

Right, that's what it was.

She moved up because she is a woman.

Did I become head of the division because I'm a woman?

How dare you come in here saying that?

Only men can come in here.

- The same is true in the military.
- Keep this in mind.

There are no men or women in the army.

The only ones here are soldiers, you pathetic bastard.

Because you are a woman, you've been allowed to come and go.

No Wha Yeong.

- Wha Yeong, stop it.
- Don't interrupt me.

Do you know why I'm on top of you?

It's simple. I'm a stronger soldier than you.

This is the place your shit head can go.

If you want to earn a living as a soldier, bow your head in front of me.

In the future in front of me, announce your name and rank properly.

If you make fun of my mouth again,

I'll make a hole here.

Are you okay? Are you okay?

If there were an important crossroads

in CEO Kang Ha Jun's life, when would it be?

When I was studying in America,

I wanted to raise funds quickly to start a business. At the time I fell into a bad situation.

Eventually it swallowed me.

Then something fateful happened, an opportunity which changed my whole life.

Was the opportunity you are talking about IM Defense?

I heard Kang's Solution was able to start thanks to an investment from IM Defense.

Yes. Everything I have achieved is due to Chairman Cha Ho Cheol.

He's not at my side now, but I will be in his debt forever.

IM Defense. Chairman Cha Ho Cheol.

IM Defense invests tens of billions in Kang's Solution's new defense system

I remember that the chairman wanted to see me again.

I'm sure you've seen us cleaning up trash, right?

Is Cha Wu In's father Chairman Cha Ho Cheol?

Do Bae Man

- Yes, Prosecutor Do.
- Come to the interogation room now.

All right.

It's not bad seeing each other face to face here like this.

More than anything, I just want the truth.

There's no other meaning.

That's fine with me.

At first I thought it was just Han Se Na's revenge.

That's why you captured Allen and exposed the video.

However, that was just the external appearance. There is a real reason which is separate.

The person you were aiming for was No Tae Nam, not Allen.

Does that have a basis?

Don't you think so?

Because you, Cha Wu In, are the daughter of Cha Ho Cheol, Chairman of IM Defense.

It's revenge against No Tae Nam, for whom If wasn't enough to bury your father

with false charges of leaking military secrets and embezzlement, through manipulation of the stock price,

took your father's company and killed him in an accident.

What's the point of a law which should be applied fairly to everyone,

if the outcome of a ruling is dependent on how much money you have?

We promise our prosecution against Cha Ho Cheol, who intensified the public's mistrust of justice,

will result in severe punishment.

I'm certain Yong Mun Gu is also a candidate for revenge.

So that's why I interfered with your surveillance of every move I make.

Please check for a bug.

What?

I inserted the device but I didn't monitor it. I'm sure you won't believe me.

It doesn't matter to me.

Cha Wu In. Why, out of all jobs, did you become a military prosecutor?

I feel like I'm being interrogated.

What's your real reason for joining the army?

I guess you still haven't figured that out.

You said that only military prosecutors can bring criminals in uniform into court.

At the inauguration ceremony for General No Wha Yeong

Did I say open your eyes?

I don't have any evidence to be certain.

- Answer.
- That's right.

The true owner of IM Defense is No Tae Nam.

Hey, Cha Wu In.

I have no intention to become involved in your personal vendetta.

Is it because when you are discharged you will become No Tae Nam's man?

Yes.

You'll have to fight with me then.

That's a certainty.

Now that you have found all the answers for me,

it is time for you to find the answers for yourself.

Answers for myself?

If I said it, you wouldn't believe me.

You must find them all yourself.

You will learn why we must fight together.

Self-driving test

When dealing with combat situations or dangerous explosives disposal

the military vehicle can be externally remote controlled,

which ensures the soldiers' safety.

Everything is due to the vehicle control chip.

Until this chip is complete, so many people are going into debt.

Chairman, for the remote explosion on a real road that you were thinking about,

when should it be scheduled?
Cha Wu In

Oh that? I've already conducted it.

- What?
- It was more than I expected.

Good.

Do Bae Man found out everything.

Who my father is, who I am.

Even that Yong Mun Gu and No Wha Yeong were behind your father's death?

Yeah.

What will Do Bae Man do in the future?

Will it turn out as we expect?

As he has learned everything about me,

I can't ever return to the past.

I will also wait

for Do Bae Man to escape from having forgotten everything.

There. It's a victory through quantity rather than ability.

Congratulations on your discharge. You worked hard for five years.

Auntie, you also are very busy nowadays, aren't you?

That No Tae Nam did something.

Damn! Even just thinking about those punks ...

I'm going to round them all up and throw them in the slammer.

How much better the world would be if there were only men like you.

Eat. Eat a lot.

Yes.

It was awesome when you had the press conference for the emperor service case.

I wondered if you were my nephew.

It reminded me of my oppa and sister-in-law who died young.

I wish you would continue to be a military prosecutor. That's my greed.

Bae Man, you are the shining sun of my life.

Eat up. Eat.

Auntie.

Mom and Dad were in an accident.

Could you request the investigation data from then?

Is it difficult because it wasn't in your jurisdiction?

Even though it's not my jurisdiction, I looked into it before.

The police don't have the data.

I was told the case was transferred to a military investigation team.

You heard that it was transferred to the military?

Yeah. The driver who caused the accident was a soldier.

A soldier.

Do you remember which until took over the investigation?

I don't remember the unit.

I put the business card of the officer in charge somewhere.

Yu Jeong Yeon

Yeom Sang Jin

Yeom Sang Jin

Chairman Cha Ho Cheol?

Chairman

What should I do? It's the chairman.

First turn off your phone.

Chairman

Then ... was the person who called that day

Chairman Cha Ho Cheol?

Good job.

Thank you.

When both No Tae Nam and Allen were captured,

I was barely able to sleep without sleeping pills.

Eonni. Eonni, can the law be like that?

How can No Tae Nam be out, huh?

Se Na. It's going to be hard, but give me a little time.

You'll help me to the end, right?

I told you about the video.

It's not that I'm helping you. It's my job now.

Eonni.

At the time I wasn't in a good situation so you couldn't ask.

You decided to release the video. Was it because Lawyer Yong Mun Gu told you?

Yes. I couldn't bear it.

Because even my mother was threatened.

Your mother ... it's up to you, Se Na.

That was not a threat.

What?

Yong Mun Gu doesn't make threats like that.

Perhaps

he provoked you.

Sutaeira Hotel

He used Se Na.

The video was publicly revealed so that No Tae Nam would be arrested.

58th Division General Prosecutors' Office.

What should I do, Prosecutor?

The case file you requested doesn't exist.

All of it was discarded.

All discarded?

Yes.

When will section chief Yeom Sang Jin come in?

Oh, there he comes.

Chief Yeom, the military prosecutor has been waiting for you.

I am military prosecutor Do Bae Man, from the 4th Infantry Division's Military Justice Office.

I see. What brings you here?

This is my old business card.

I apologize for showing up out of the blue.

I heard that you were the investigator in charge of my parents' case.

May I ask you a few questions?

Yes. Follow me please.

Yes.

Oh, thank you.

I will be discharged in a few days. Please feel free to drop your formalities when you speak to me.

Even so...

It's really alright.

Both of your parents were highly competent prosecutors.

At the law office, I worked under them.

I see.

But I heard that all related documentation has been destroyed.

It's not something that happens often, but it isn't necessarily that strange either.

Because it's the military.

Was there anything special about the case?

Why are you looking at me like that?

How much do you remember from back then?

Do you mean my memories of the car accident?

I remember the car being overturned after the crash.

And? After that?

I think I came to my senses at the hospital.

It looks like you remember nothing.

Perhaps...

Was the incident not an accident?

Sometimes memories can become poison.

This may be all the better for you.

That's all I can say right now.

Chief Yeom. Chief Yeom!

Something I can't remember. What is that?

IM CEO No Tae Nam

Chairman, you will be enlisted in the 4th Division, where General No is.

Then what happens to the company while I'm gone?

If you care that much for the company, all the more reason for you to enlist.

Pardon?

The stock prices that plummeted because of the video has begun to recover after you were arrested.

As long as you enlist, the company will find stability.

Since the risk you bring will be eliminated.

Mother. IM is my everything.

Don't fool yourself.

You were only given this seat because you are my son.

Anybody who puts the company at risk needs to leave immediately.

Mother...

What should we do about the video that the police have received?

Leave it.

Will it be alright?

Let the news of the video get out. And send Tae Nam to the army.

No matter how much he resists enlistment,

once he faces rock bottom, he won't be able to say he prefers prison over the military.

Yes, I will do as instructed.

Lawyer Yong.

Yes, general.

After Tae Nam goes to the army, you take charge of IM for the time being.

Yes, I understand.

It has been decided that Chairman No will enlist in the military.

Chairman No had no choice from the beginning.

And unaware of that fact, I risked everything trying to make Chairman No's military exemption project happen.

And you, knowing everything, pretended otherwise.

Well, I wasn't expecting the video.

At the end of the day, you reap what you sow.

I clearly barked up the wrong tree.

On top of that, you also revealed your true colors. So all in all, I gained a lot.

Unfortunately for you, you have lost everything because you betrayed me.

Our ties have now become permanently severed, but I strangely feel at ease.

I'll start over from the bottom.

This time it is goodbye for real.

Forget-me-not coffee shop

Closed

I'm here.

Welcome.

You came early.

Thank you.

Madam, thank you.

The pleasure is mine.

- You're saying releasing the video out into the world was part of Lawyer Yong's plan?
- Yes.

My instinct told me so once I met Se Na.

No Wha Yeong directed it, and Yong Mun Gu executed it.

Eh, no way.

She is somebody who is never shaken by unexpected situations,

and knows how two turn the tides in her favor.

Lawyer Yong Mun Gu should be holding a press conference right now.

Some may claim that he is enlisting to seek refuge before trial. These claims are completely unfounded.

Chairman No Tae Nam had already received a notification of enlistment a month ago from the Military Administration,

and was in the process of setting a date to faithfully fulfill his military service obligation.

As of today, Chairman No Tae Nam will be dropping all of his titles related to IM Defense.

However, I make it clear that his resignation does not in any way suggest an admission of guilt for his case.

He simply concluded that he should enlist to uphold the sacred duty of national defense as any Korean man should,

and felt it was inappropriate to postpone his enlistment just because of the trial.

Chairnam No Tae Nam will faithfully participate in the military trial after enlistment,

and fight to uncover the truth.

If Chairman No Tae Nam enlists in the military, what happens to the position of chairman?
- How amazing. You gold spoons.

That matter will be addressed in an official announcement that the company will make soon.

So Yong Mun Gu takes over the vacant CEO position.

Wu In, your prediction was right.

So she trusts her right arm more than her son?

They are just puppets anyways.

Whether it's No Tae Nam or Yong Mun Gu, it's just a placeholder for No Wha Yeong.

No Wha Yeong will never take off her military uniform.

Since the money accumulated by IM Defense is only a weapon she is wielding to continue living as a soldier.

There are other people besides me who want to help you.

Chief Yeom Sang Jin

Yes, Chief Yeom.

Bae Man came to me.

He must have come to ask you about his parents.

He couldn't remember the most important thing.

Tomorrow, No Tae Nam enlists.

And Prosecutor Do Bae Man is discharged.

The same time, same day?

What a funny coincidence.

If possible, I would like to just tell Bae Man everything.

No.

Even if it takes times, he needs to recall it of his own accord.

When he is ready to accept the truth on his own terms, he will come and find you again.

That will be the beginning.

Will Bae Man really come and find me again?

A mask for UV protection.

I should pack this.

What else should I pack? Oh yes, Bolt's stuff.

I'm going, so of course you should too.

- Oh, you're here.
- Yes.

Chairman, these are all things you cannot bring into the bootcamp.

Everything you are are wearing and your luggage when you enter is packed up and sent back.

Oh my god.

You know that I can't live without any of these things.

Bolt can't even excrete without this.

Bolt can't go in with you.

I'll just take care of him in my room with me.

You're enlisting, not traveling.

There are no private rooms for trainee soldiers.

I don't have my own room? Then what about showering?

At the boot camp you must live with others as a collective group.

Group life

How on earth do you expect me to survive there?

Do you think it makes sense that I am supposed to

eat and sleep in the same room as those commoners?

I've never thought of going to the army, ever.

Army don't hide a criminal

Captain Do Bae Man.

Congratulations on your discharge, Captain Do Bae Man

Congratulations on joining boot camp.

Good morning.

Unity.

I, Captain Do Bae Man, am reporting for discharge,

effective as of November 20, 2021.

I hereby report this.

Unity.

Do Bae Man.

Do you think you deserve my salute?

It will be difficult for a while. Why don't you give him one last hug?

Just go.

I can't go in if I look at him.

Mother didn't come, right?

Chairman, I am here for you.

Don't worry about anything, and...

Bolt. You're my only true family, you know.

Because you're always on my side.

As a military prosecutor, you acted as a broker just for a few bucks?

And you still call yourself a military prosecutor?

You are a disgrace to the Korean soldier name, you filthy bastard.

Please watch what you say.

This bastard-!

The moment I leave this place, I become a civilian.

I will no longer be your subordinate.

Get lost. Immediately.

Don't come anywhere near the military.

Unity.

Unity.

One month later.

Defendant / Defense Attorney

Everyone, stand.

The commander is entering.

Everyone, be seated.

We shall now begin the military trial of the defendant, trainee soldier No Tae Nam.

Firstly, the defendant, trainee soldier No Tae Nam...

Memories are fragments.

Somebody is bound to possess one of pieces of my lost memory.

Memories are only momentarily broken,

not gone.
-Open your eyes! Please open your eyes!

Mom! Mom, open your eyes!

Open your eyes!

Oblivion, the supposed gift from God, was a punishment.
