This episode focuses on the extraordinary achievements of elite divorce lawyer Cha Eun-kyung. She has just successfully won a US$150 million lawsuit for her client, demonstrating her profound legal skills and excellent defense capabilities.At the same time, we also introduced a new lawyer - Han Youli. She originally had a dream to join the field of corporate law, but was unexpectedly assigned to the divorce department, even though she graduated with honors from the top Dazheng Law Firm in the industry..
Through the conversation between Cha Eun-kyung and his right-hand assistant and second team leader of the divorce team, Jung Woo-jin, we get a glimpse of Eun-kyung's straightforward and strict leadership style, which also indirectly reveals why many new lawyers choose to leave due to difficulty adapting.
Faced with the challenge, Han Yuli bravely expressed her career vision to Eun-kyung and obtained a challenging agreement: If she can successfully win ten cases in a short period of time, Eun-kyung will assist her in applying for a job transfer to her superiors..Yuli's career kicked off at an alarming speed, and she devoted herself to intense customer meetings on her first day.
In the first divorce case he took over, Yuli's client was accused of cheating.Eun-kyung made a quick judgment with his keen insight, while Yuri chose to stand by the client and fight for his innocence despite his doubts after in-depth understanding of the case.This kind of loyalty and trust in clients has not wavered even when facing powerful opponents, which reflects her professional ethics as a lawyer.
However, the failure of the first court hearing brought a huge impact to Yuli.Faced with overwhelming evidence, she was forced to reexamine her defense strategy.Back at the office, she was even more frustrated by the client's lies.However, Eun-kyung found an opportunity to fight back from the client's ridiculous excuse. With the support of his colleague Zheng Yuzhen, Quan Eun-ho personally took action and invited Yuri to dinner to relieve her psychological pressure.
In the following hearing, Yuli relied on his wisdom and hard work to successfully use the bathroom recording to expose the plaintiff's paranoid behavior, and further solidified his defense position through a handwritten letter from the client's son.Faced with the challenge of new evidence, she refuted the accusation of bribery with clever arguments and won the respect of the audience.
However, when the joy of victory had not faded, Yuli unexpectedly learned that her client had been deceiving her.During a phone call with her client's mistress, she learned the full truth, which left her deeply questioning and disillusioned with her work.
After the celebration dinner, Yuli came to the office alone and fell into deep thinking.Just as she is considering whether to give up this career, Eun-kyung returns to the office to pick up the missing documents.The two met unexpectedly here, and Yuri witnessed the inappropriate relationship between Enjing's husband and his secretary.This scene not only gave her a deeper understanding of Eun-kyung's personal life, but also foreshadowed the plot of the next episode.
