Judge PARK Bongju.

I want you to confess

why you overrode the law?

What the hell are you doing!

Here's a news f1ash! former

S Univ. professor KIM Kyungho,

has allegedly shot the presiding

judge with a crossbow

after losing a professorship

reinstatement case in Court.

The disgruntled suspect, sought

the judge out at his home and

committed a life-threatening

offense against him using

a dangerous weapon

The Supreme Court

held an urgent judges' meeting

and declared to take severe

legal actions against him for

challenging constitutionalism

and attacking the Judiciary.

UNBOWED:

Hey!

Just pay my outstanding fees

for helping you win this lawsuit!

It took me 3 years to stop

the company from firing you!

You'll get paid when union

members are reinstated.

You might as well join in

the fight. Lawyers like

- you should take a stand!

- It's your fight, not mine!

Stop it!

Just give me my money.

- Mr. CHOI.

- What!

Miss LEE,

thanks for the coffee.

- See you later.

- Union Chairman Mr. CHOI!

What is it, what?!

A fight's one thing

and paying up is another.

Our office is really

in a rut you know.

How can it be worse than

our members being laid off?!

Awe f***!

Give me my money

What, f***?!

- What did you say?

- What!

- How old are you?

- What!

How old are you?

Every goddamn sentence of

yours ends with 'money'?

What's your deal! Huh?!

If you're a lawyer,

act like one! Sh*t! Hey!

You'll never see a penny

until we're all reinstated?

I'm quitting this shitty job

anyway, you son-of-a-b*tch!

This case is so high profile.

I'm sure other attorneys

will be interested.

That said, what brings you

all the way down to Changwon?

It's you

whom my husband wants.

I used to be the best in defending

wrongly dismissed university professors.

Especially, I earned my fame

through the Prof. LEE Dongho trial.

And participated in drafting

the revised private school law

He said you don't care much

about what other people say

And that you'd be

a good match with him.

I read about the case

in the news

But first give me details

about his dismissal.

My husband was on the university

entrance exam evaluation team.

January, 1995

A and B can only be parallel.

But the question should prove

how they are perpendicular.

A and B cannot be parallel and

perpendicular at the same time.

So this question itself

cannot be valid

Mo wonder 1 cou1dn't so1ve it.

Who presented this question?

Prof. CHOI?

Prof. CHOI, no need to take

everything so seriously.

We can either grade it

as a no score or the highest score.

You mean we should

admit it was an error?

Our Mathematics Dept.

will all look like fools!

But if we hid the truth,

- it'll make things worse.

- There he is.

What have you decided to do?

We've decided to create

another official answer sheet

and re-grade

the exam papers by it.

What? But that will

change who passes or fails.

Prof. KIM.

You need to put the university's

reputation above your principles.

But shouldn't the school's

reputation be based on 'trust'?

If trust means so much to you,

why raise such controversy?!

Prof. KIM, you need to learn to

embrace a colleague's mistake

That's enough. We'll just close

this issue before word gets out.

- Let's do that.

- Right.

It's just like lying

to the students.

As their professor,

I won't accept this.

Are you clueless or

just too self-righteous?!

Enough.

You think a good thesis will

get you a full tenure?

That's how he became

the faculty outcast

and the following year

he failed to receive tenure.

That really hit

my husband hard.

He eventually filed a lawsuit

to reinstate his position.

But

Reissuing tenure status is

the school's right.

It's the reality of private schools.

Sons-of-b*tches

I still have a hangover from yesterday.

I need some water.

Please excuse me.

Hey!

Why do my hands always shake

when I'm starting to sober up?

It's so humiliating!

MARCH 2005, NEW JERSEY, U.S.A.

Honey, we can now

return to Korea?

What's dad saying?

They passed a new law permitting

university faculty excluded mom

a tenure-track to have another

chance for re-evaluation.

Look here, SNU's Prof. KIM Minsu

has been reinstated.

If I apply for a re-evaluation,

I'll be able to return

to my university.

I'm not going back.

What're you talking about?

I don't want to go back.

You were always right,

but where did that get us?

But can't you see

they've changed the law.

These letters of validation

confirm that

not just local mathematicians

but also prestigious

mathematicians from overseas

also confirm the plaintiff's

claims are justified, right?

Yes, your Honor.

So why did he lose?

The judge graduated mom

the same school that dismissed him.

It's nothing new that

private school foundations

and the Judiciary are close.

So you never appealed?

We appealed immediately

and that's where we met

Judge PARK Bongju.

They blamed my exclusion

from a tenure-track on

my lack of ability as a scholar.

Yet they haven't presented

one single piece of evidence.

I would like you to treat

this case strictly by the law.

You're constantly telling me

to stick strictly to the law,

which I absolutely will.

At first, we had high hopes

for Judge PARK Bongju, but

This is a petition filed and

signed by the students.
