MOTION TO RECUSE
DEFENDANT: HWANG IN-JUN
THE JUDGE IN CHARGE IS THE PARENT OF
THE VICTIM IN THE DEFENDANT'S PRIOR CASE
SEARCH RULING
HWANG IN-JUN
CASE 2017P2027
SEOUL FAMILY COUR DISPOSITION
CASE 2017P2027, MANSLAUGHTER
HWANG IN-JUN
1. PUT UNDER PARENTAL PROTECTION
2. SHORT-TERM PROBATION
Miss Sim was the guardian, then?
So it's you.
You're the whistleblower
who got her own boss kicked out.
She recognized me.
A motion to recuse?
Yes, Ms. Na is in a bad mood
because of it.
Where is Judge Sim
and does she know about all of this?
When we met, you knew I was the judge?
The judge in charge of that case, right?
Yes.
And despite that, you asked me
to reassign the case to you.
Yes.
What were you gonna do?
Punish the kids on behalf of your son?
I had to put an end to it
because it started off all wrong.
Don't you agree?
That's pretty offensive.
It sounds like you're blaming me
for making the wrong call for the case.
Didn't you?
Now listen, Judge Sim
No, you listen. They learned
from your decision that day in court.
"Oh, the law is nothing."
That's what they learned.
Who are the two of you back there?
Why are you attending
this trial?
We're the victim's parents.
Who told you you could be here?
Why are they in my courtroom?
Article 25.2 of the Juvenile Act
guarantees victims the right to state
an opinion in a protection case.
You've already submitted
a written statement.
VICTIM'S STATEMENT OF OPINION
NAME: SIM EUN-SEOK, MOTHER
- That's true. I did, but I
- So I'll take that into account.
Protection case trials are supposed
to be held behind closed doors,
so you can't be here.
What?
Hwang In-jun. Baek Do-hyeon.
Eleven-year-olds.
First-time offenders.
They said that they regretted
what they had done.
You think other judges
would have decided differently?
It was the correct decision!
Sure.
You believe.
You always make the right decision.
It was only three minutes.
They killed a person.
And that was how long they stood at trial.
What could they have learned from that?
"The law doesn't protect all victims."
"Oh!"
"The law is so simple."
"It takes three minutes
to get through a trial."
Five years ago
when they stood trial for the first time,
you should've taught those boys then,
exactly how the brick they threw
just for fun
destroyed a family
and ruined the rest of their lives.
Neither their schools nor their families
made them realize it.
At the very least, the court
could have taught them that lesson.
Because that is our job.
Already? But
Hey, let's go get some food.
That's the way the law is.
You know that.
Juvenile cases
are all about speed.
That's why they turned out like that!
Why do you handle all cases with speed?
What about the kids
who can't keep up with it?
And the victims?
Who's responsible for them?
That's not being efficient.
It's irresponsible.
Why
don't you have
some kind of sense of duty?
Ms. Sim, I learned a lot from you today.
For such an honorable judge,
you sure ignored the conflict of interest.
Will you be able to speak so eloquently
to the Disciplinary Committee?
I look forward to it.
And one more thing.
Moving forward, you're excluded
from In-jun's Protection Case
and the Yeonhwa Gang Rape Case
which is Dong-gyun
and Gyeong-su's criminal case.
But you're so smart.
You must already know that.
Judge Sim.
PRESIDING JUDGE'S OFFICE
Kang Seon-a is here
at the court with her sister.
What would you like to do?
Kang Seon-a?
Hwang In-jun.
I heard he denied being an accomplice.
Is that true?
Why me of all people?
I think about it. Really, every day.
"Why me?"
"What was it that I did wrong?"
"Why was I chosen?"
I was just online chatting.
In the chat room, Hwang In-jun,
he said he was a student.
I talked about my problems and my mom
and he gave me advice.
That day, I was stressed out
from a fight with my best friend.
So he suggested that we meet
and talk for a bit.
That's why I went out.
But I shouldn't have.
Because of me, even my dad
Well, do you think
that Hwang In-jun
will just get away with it?
You mentioned Baek Do-hyeon.
Why was that?
There might be four boys,
not just the three.
Seo Dong-gyun, O Gyeong-su, Hwang In-jun
and Baek Do-hyeon.
Cha Tae-ju.
You're no longer in charge of the case.
You could get in serious trouble.
I know.
I shouldn't be doing this.
But isn't it horrible?
They're more evil than
five years ago.
I'm not insisting I handle this case.
But if the case gets closed this way,
we may no longer get a chance
to sentence them properly.
One of the kids I'm in charge of
ran away from home and committed theft.
This is Cha Tae-ju.
Judge Cha, it's
the Juvenile Classification Center.
Ah, yes, hi.
Baek Ha-rin,
the girl you sent to us.
We just got her physical results back.
And, well, it says
that she's pregnant.
She's pregnant?
Ha-rin,
I'm really worried about you.
Did you tell your father?
Jeez, I don't know.
Fuck.
What are you going to do now?
The gang rape case
was up at National Petition.
Who the fuck do you think runs the gang?
Don't change the subject.
Fucking hell.
Those assholes are the ones who did it.
I got pregnant when I was
with that runaway family.
Baek Do-hyeon, that asshole.
What? Who did you
Baek Do-hyeon.
He belongs to the same
runaway family as the other three.
They motel owners all know them
for prostitution.
Fuck. My sister is in room 302 now.
- Come on, open the door.
- Who are you?
She's a minor, fuck.
- The police?
- For fuck's sake, come on!
Man, where's the fucking key?
- I said open it now!
- Open the fucking door!
- All right, all right, take it.
- Shit.
Who are you? What are you doing here?
Here you go.
- Why are
- What's this?
What?
Piece of shit!
- You're rich, man!
- Yeah, you look nice.
Fuck.
- You fuck.
- Why are you
I'm her brother.
What? Her brother?
Should I send this to your wife
or maybe your kids' school?
- Huh?
- No, no. I'm really sorry. I'm so sorry!
- I'm sorry.
- Fucking shit!
You stupid asshole.
This fucking bastard has a death wish.
Hey!
- Thank you.
- Good job.
Hey, In-jun.
All right.
- Fuck, thank you.
- Hey.
- Here.
- Fuck, what's that for?
Thanks, Do-hyeon.
- Fuck off, moron.
- Jeez, son of a bitch.
What should we get for dinner?
How about chicken?
Hey.
So where's my cut?
I told you to fucking wait.
You're so annoying.
Hey. Didn't you want
to buy some shoes?
Come here.
They conned the victims
out of millions of won each time.
They made all that money
and didn't share any of it with her.
So she ran away.
The boss of the gang is Baek Do-hyeon.
No one dares to touch him.
When he grabs a knife,
he turns into a total psycho.
He starts stabbing.
Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su, those morons.
They're older than him,
but they're both idiots.
You really think those dumbasses
could do it without Do-hyeon?
That's fucking hilarious.
No, that can't be true.
Only three boys
were caught on CCTV.
Baek Do-hyeon wasn't there.
I know that.
But that's what she said, okay?
Whatever the truth is,
this case will be taken care of
without your help.
So please stop
stressing about it.
I mean, what if you get sent
to the Disciplinary Committee?
That's what you're afraid of?
I am afraid of what they'll become
if they're already like this.
"Whatever the truth is,
this case will be taken care of
without your help."
That's why they're like that.
Because of judges like us.
They're really notorious.
Every motel owner
on the street knows them.
But they stay quiet because they're afraid
to lose customers.
I'll text you an address now.
From where the latest victim was.
I think
it was four or five boys.
They just barged in.
And then they threatened
to put my motel in trouble.
- Here. There they are.
- What the fuck! Come out!
- Come out! My sister is here. My sister.
- Look at them.
- My sister is
- Nothing like that happens here.
Fuck, my sister is
- Hey, let's go. Come on.
- Open this now!
An old man
and a young girl came in, right?
She's my sister. Hurry up!
Give me the key.
- Cooperate with us.
- You bitch!
- Open the door now!
- What are you looking at, asshole?
This is Sim Eun-seok.
Can you send me a list of the runaway kids
our court is in charge of?
Yes, girls. Cases from last
six months, ASAP.
I don't know Hwang In-jun,
but I've heard of
Baek Do-hyeon.
I've heard awful rumors
about his runaway family.
So I've never met him.
And, well, I heard that he uses girls.
Can you tell me in detail?
Why should I bother?
I don't want to know anything about it.
I'm not a part of it anymore.
Aren't you?
Let's find out whether or not
you've been involved at court.
VIOLATION: DID NOT ANSWER CALL IN DUE TIME
I don't know Do-hyeon,
but I know his girl.
We shared a room at a facility.
Well, I don't know
if she's dating him still.
Shit.
That damn son of a bitch.
Ask me anything.
I'll tell you everything I know.
WE STRONGLY OPPOSE THE REDEVELOPMEN There's this really old place.
The second floor of the Daeho Inn.
Baek Do-hyeon is a total pervert
and piece of trash.
He cons sugar daddies out of money.
But that's not all.
Those bastards rape girls to make money.
Hey, look here. Look at this.
This is fucking hilarious.
This dude is crazy.
They rape girls
and film it.
Then they threaten them with the videos
and force them into prostitution scams.
Did you upload them all?
How many hits?
And they even sell
the fucking videos.
- Are you leaving?
- Yeah.
All right. Later.
Hey. Who the hell are you?
Are you a pig?
It's no use.
Nothing on that computer.
Baek Do-hyeon?
You fucking bitch!
Shit!
You fucking whore! You fucking bitch!
Fuck you, you stupid fucking bitch! Fuck!
Get the fuck up, you bitch.
Do you know how much
that fucking thing's worth?
This is fun. All right.
Come on, bitch. Get up.
Even if the others turned out like this,
you shouldn't have, Do-hyeon.
You should have tried.
You had a second chance.
One of you should have at least tried.
Why
Why is this the best you can do?
Tell me, why?
"Tell me, why"?
What the hell are you saying, bitch?
You fucking bitch!
Oh, fuck!
What I want to know is
who the fuck
you are.
Fucking answer me.
Damn it! Answer me now,
you stupid fucking bitch!
Damn it.
Motherfucker!
Shit!
PHOTO EVIDENCE 1
It's you.
Shit.
The Yeonhwa Gang Rape Case.
Baek Do-hyeon.
You were there.
You were at the scene too.
Fuck.
Seriously. What the fuck!
This bitch is crazy.
Just babbling on.
You're right, though.
I was there.
So what?
You fucking bitch. Get up! Get up! Ah!
Die. Die!
Die! Die! It's okay.
You can die, you fucking bitch!
Die, you fucking bitch! Just die!
Die! Die! Die!
Fuck!
You fucking bitch!
Fuck!
Oh, Judge Sim!
What happened? What Oh! Can you walk?
Wait. This way.
I only gave you first aid.
You need a hospital.
Who's in charge of
In-jun's case?
I have something to tell you
regarding aspects of the case.
I'll be in charge of it.
I'll handle it according to the law.
Leave if that's why you're here.
I don't wanna hear it.
It wasn't just the gang rape,
though, Miss Na. Listen.
There's more to this than we even know.
Those boys were threatening the victims
This isn't
You're not a detective.
Judges have a duty
to get to the truth behind a case
using proper procedures.
You still have a grudge?
If you keep making this case personal,
I'll no longer sit back and watch.
If I had made it personal,
I would have sent
In-jun to the prosecutor
in the first trial.
This case is just the tip of the iceberg.
Those boys threatened the victims
and were using them to make
You have to go now.
Get to a hospital or I'll call 911.
Listen up, please.
This is the best I can do for you.
If you keep
making this case personal,
I'll no longer sit back and watch.
Please stop, Judge Sim.
You're no longer in charge of the case.
I'm afraid you'll get
into serious trouble.
That's the way the law is.
You know that.
That's right. I was there.
So what?
YEONHWA DISTRICT COUR JUDICIAL CULTURE AWARD
PROSECUTOR NA GEUN-HEE
ACHIEVEMENT PLAQUE
APPRECIATION PLAQUE
JUDGE NA GEUN-HEE
The trial will begin soon.
You really won't attend?
Mm-mm.
Go ahead.
Case number 2022PU3409.
The court has accepted
the request for recusal,
so the judge in charge
of the case has been changed.
If you want to raise objections
or discuss the documents
you submitted
in the previous trial, please do so now.
None, Your Honor.
Then, with that, the trial will begin.
Dashcam footage was presented
in the previous trial to suggest
that Hwang In-jun is an accomplice.
That's not the truth.
Hwang In-jun is just an ordinary student.
He's diligent and polite.
But Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su,
whom he met at an institution
constantly threatened him
and forced him to do things.
The master-servant relationship
tormented him a great deal.
As a result, he was frightened
during the police interrogation
and gave a false testimony.
Because of their threats,
he had no choice but to take Kang Seon-a
to the construction site.
That was all.
In-jun's DNA was not found
to be present in the victim's body.
The allegation that he's an accomplice
does not stand to reason.
This case
is only the tip of the iceberg.
These boys threatened the victims
and they used the victims to make
Okay, I understand.
So the testifier is here today,
is that right?
I'd like to hear what
Baek Do-hyeon has to say as well.
Baek Do-hyeon.
Asshole, you know I'm here
to defend you, right?
Make it quick.
Or you're in deep shit, you crazy dick.
Hello, Your Honor.
I heard that you've been good friends
with Hwang In-jun since you were little.
Yes, we were classmates in grade school.
We've been friends since.
Then did you know
that Seo Dong-gyun and O Gyeong-su
had been threatening him
and assaulting him for quite a while?
Yes. In-jun had a hard time with it.
Do you have evidence?
Yes.
We submitted photos at the previous trial.
These were taken after he was assaulted
by Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su
Uh, no, no.
Not these. Evidence of their intimidation.
Text messages or phone calls.
Well
The reason I'm asking
this question is very simple.
In-jun's testimony is not consistent
with Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su's testimony.
Sorry?
Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su claimed
that there were four culprits
involved in this case.
Including the defendant, In-jun,
and the testifier, Baek Do-hyeon.
Hwang In-jun's trial
is set for next week.
And I have been ordered
to listen to you two before the trial.
Of course, whatever you say here
won't have any effect
on your criminal trial.
We just want to hear your thoughts.
Ah, but
this is your last chance to bring up
anything else about In-jun's case.
Was he really not an accomplice?
Did you guys threaten him?
You can say, if there's nothing.
Yeah, there's nothing.
Okay.
If that's it, I can't help it.
You can remain silent.
However, if you choose
to give a false testimony,
it may actually work against you.
I'll say it one last time.
This will be your last chance
to make a statement about it.
Sign your names.
Judge Sim. Are you okay?
Yes, I am.
We should've come faster.
No.
You came right on time.
Now I'm absolutely sure.
Please investigate the evidence here.
And keep it secret.
Okay. But first,
you need to get to a hospital.
Actually, it wasn't three.
It was four.
Just tell him, fuck.
Me and him, Hwang In-jun,
and Baek Do-hyeon did it together.
We fucked whores
like Seon-a and filmed it.
And then we used it to threaten them or
- use them for scams.
- We sold the videos too.
A lot of people like that kind of stuff.
But we didn't know she went
to a hospital to get checked.
Seon-a, that stupid bitch.
Argh! Girls are usually quiet.
- Right? Aren't they?
- Yeah.
But they were Baek Do-hyeon's orders.
If we don't listen, he stabs us.
This dude got stabbed.
When I first met him,
I thought he was jack shit.
Then he stabbed me right here
and laughed about it, fucker.
And I'm older
than that son of a bitch.
He's a crazy dickhead.
What are they saying?
Those fucking bastards.
Huh?
You fucking bitch!
Even if the others
turned out like this,
you shouldn't have, Do-hyeon.
You should have tried.
You had a second chance.
What could they
have learned from that?
"The law doesn't protect all victims."
"Oh, the law is so simple."
"It takes three minutes
to get through a trial."
Why do you handle all cases with speed?
What about the kids
who can't keep up with it?
And the victims?
Who's responsible for them?
We haven't found all the victims yet.
So the court should report Baek Do-hyeon
when In-jun's trial is over.
Oh, there was a computer in his hideout.
It's likely he used it
to distribute the sex videos.
But we didn't find anything on it.
Based on the statements,
he must have a secret phone.
We're looking,
but we haven't found that either.
A secret phone?
Yes. I'm sure it will prove
that he's an accomplice.
Objection, Your Honor.
They're just statements
made by the defendants.
There's no direct evidence
showing In-jun and Do-hyeon
are accomplices.
The evidence
that we're about to show you now
is from Baek Do-hyeon's secret phone
which Hwang In-jun brought
to the crime scene.
THREESOME GIRL
YEONHWA SEX CLUB
BITCHES WITH HUGE TITS
Seon-a, just pat me on the head.
Show that bitch's face to the camera.
Fucking bitch.
One, two, three.
I don't believe it.
I clearly was Fuck.
I told you
not to touch that bitch.
Only runaway girls, asshole.
Stop being a little bitch.
I deleted everything.
And I got rid of all the proof.
Enough shit. I want money.
Well, who's a big boy now?
Wow, asshole.
I'll defend you, you dumbass.
If you fuck up
or things go wrong,
I'll come clean about you, asshole.
Do it.
Hey, hey.
You fucking bastard!
You're a crazy fucking asshole!
Well, fuck, you dickhead!
Fucking bullshit!
Fuck this shit! Fuck!
Are you happy now?
I said I'll save you.
Fucking coward.
Baek Do-hyeon's dad called us.
Because the police are only interrogating
Hwang In-jun and us.
We can't fucking get away with it.
They found our DNA.
His dad said
exclude Baek Do-hyeon,
and he'd hire an attorney to defend us.
If we serve time, he'd give us each
50 million won.
Those fucking bastards! Fuck!
Be quiet.
Your Honor, Do-hyeon forced me.
Shut up, motherfucker.
I was afraid. I had no choice!
- Settle down.
- You fucking said she looked tasty.
And we'd make
a shit ton of money!
Yeah, but then, you took it all.
That's why they fucking damned you out!
- Be quiet!
- You bastard.
We pretended to be your friends.
Are you happy?
You asshole! You fucking dick!
- Stop it! Stop!
- Hey, do I look easy to you?
You motherfucker!
- Go fuck yourself, you bastard!
- Execute that jerk! Execute him! Fuck!
Stop talking shit,
- you little motherfucker!
- You made me do it, asshole!
- You shitty shithead!
- I said stop! Baek Do-hyeon!
- Judge, that asshole is as bad all of 'em.
- You fucking bastard! I'll kill you!
I did it because he kept egging me on.
- You love having sex, you moron!
- Hey, knock it off!
- You fucking perv, you sniff girls' shoes!
- Be quiet, both of you!
- Hey, you bastard! Fucking let go of me!
- I said, stop!
I'm gonna Let go of me now!
Stop!
Let go of me!
- Hey, you stop! Come here!
- You're fucking crazy!
- Get over here!
- I said stop!
I'm sure that dick
Do-hyeon has no idea.
He always carries around
a secret phone, right?
Yeah.
I linked my cloud account to it on the DL.
Just in case.
"Cloud"? You mean online storage?
Do-hyeon, that asshole.
That fucking snob really pissed me off.
Fuck it! No stopping me now.
That asshole Do-hyeon
and his rich parents.
He left home because of his stepmom.
And we only listen to him
because he paid us.
When my dad is drunk, he gets in fights.
That's why my mom left.
His uncle is the same way.
If we had good parents,
we wouldn't do this.
You know?
People wanna put like all
of the blame on us.
But honestly, I don't think
we were in the wrong.
What?
Aren't the buyers of the prostitutes
the bad ones?
If those guys didn't want it so bad,
we wouldn't have done it, right?
And the victims?
How is Seon-a at fault?
This proves
that Baek Do-hyeon and Hwang In-jun
were at the crime scene
and that they conspired
with Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su
to commit rape as well as other crimes.
All right.
The victim has watched
from the court interrogation room outside.
It must be hard for you.
But I'm sure you don't want
to leave with any regrets.
If you have any last words, speak now.
You know, I slit my wrist, right?
My sister thought I did it
because my school asked me to drop out.
But that wasn't it.
I have this best friend.
After what happened,
I texted and called her.
I couldn't ever get a hold of her.
Finally, after a long time,
she texted back.
I thought she had just been really busy.
But she said
Her mom said not to hang out with me.
I'm the victim.
So why am I getting all the blame?
When can I go back to my old life?
Can I ever go back to it?
There's one absolute truth
I realized working at court.
Anyone can be a victim.
It's so obvious, but no one gets it.
Kang Seon-a.
Listen to me.
If this case takes you into court,
you keep one thing in mind.
It's not your fault.
Raise your head.
Confidently.
Please let
my life go back to normal.
The four boys conspired together
to rape the victim.
Thus, they are co-perpetrators.
Therefore, this protection case
is now closed.
This case will be forwarded
to the Prosecutors' Office.
And if the prosecution files charges,
a criminal case could be opened
against you at that time.
Your Honor. What does that mean for me?
Come on, I I need to know.
URGENT TRANSPOR MINISTRY OF JUSTICE
Larceny, violence,
prostitution trade,
prostitution scam, and even
raping young girls.
How did children end up like this?
They say that it takes
a whole village to raise a child.
In other words,
a child could be ruined
if the village neglects them.
Those boys raped Kang Seon-a
and she wasn't their only victim.
We can't just blame the boys.
It took a village.
I feel relieved, though, now that we know.
The victim and her guardian
can finally sleep comfortably
since it's done.
What do you mean "since it's done"?
I mean, since Ms. Na
There's no end for rape victims.
It doesn't matter how much time passes.
They'll be scarred for their entire life.
That's why it's so cruel.
There's one rule
that I follow as a judge.
That is to leave my feelings
out of the courtroom.
I thought that was the only way
I could make fair judgments.
But I realized recently,
that's not entirely appropriate
in a juvenile court, not always.
For that reason,
I'd like to say something
right now to those
who have been hurt by me.
I apologize as an adult.
Hey, Ms. Joo.
Yes?
The hearing for Judge Sim is today, right?
Uh-huh.
I hope that they're not too hard.
I hope so too.
SUPREME COURT JUSTICE
DISCIPLINARY COMMITTEE
Na Geun-hee, but why?
Judge Cha told me
what happened at at the court.
And so?
Well, at the disciplinary hearing
please, Geun-hee
defend my junior.
Why why should I?
Sim Eun-seok did her job
as best she could.
You should not stand in her way.
Don't you agree?
Geun-hee?
SUPREME COURT JUSTICE
DISCIPLINARY COMMITTEE
Put it there.
I said to get back to work.
But I'm worried.
There's no need.
COUR Hmm.
This is how it feels to stand down here.
They lowered the bench a lot,
so judges look less authoritative.
But from here, it's still overwhelming.
You think the kids know
the heavy responsibility of a judge?
Of course not. They shouldn't.
It's meant to be lonely.
COUR I'm sorry, Judge Sim.
I just I wanted to to say this.
The Brick Manslaughter Case,
Judge Na Geun-hee,
Hwang In-jun, and Baek Do-hyeon
When I learned the details,
I was disappointed in you.
What happened to Judge Kang
was upsetting, and even you
I was very disappointed.
And I was angry.
But when I thought about it again
I can finally understand
why you made such judgments
and said the things you said.
They break the law.
They dared unabashed
even at such a young age.
This is the reason I so despise you all.
Kids like you never change.
In three weeks, and if you lie again,
and it's confirmed
that you were an accomplice
in the sexual assault after all,
this case could
be sent to the prosecution.
You weren't swayed by feelings.

JUVENILE CRIMES HAVE RISEN BY
31.9% IN 2001 COMPARED TO 1992
Judge Sim Eun-seok.
If you have any final words, speak now.
I admit all of my mistakes.
I damaged the impartiality of the court,
its independence and honor.
I gladly accept any punishment.
Not your regrets.
Your attitude and thoughts as a judge.
The Supreme Court
reminded me of how
I treated young offenders.
When I was first appointed,
that must change, for sure.
However
I won't say that all the sentences
I imposed were wrong.
As a judge, I'll work to be impartial
and I won't disgrace myself.
But I despise young offenders.
Some may criticize
my attitude towards them,
and some may be hurt by it.
"Hatred."
It means
dislike or ill will.
Though I despise young offenders,
I have no ill will towards them.
I'll be sincere
when I deal with their cases.
Though I despise them,
I'll make decisions with a cool head.
Though I despise them,
I won't look at them with any bias.
In other words,
my initial thoughts remain the same.
But the context for them
is very different at this point.
There's a shadow
COUR I see the final wave
Crashing down those souls
Don't lose your faith
Don't be afraid
It's like a fever
In fact, chance
It's all to see the lie
So, yes, my actions
will be different from before.
But I
will always despise
young criminals.
I see, feel
I can feel the stars
Starting to fade away
Let the star shine
Shine free
When I shine again
With the sparkle in your eyes
Oh
Oh
Oh
Dried tear drops
From yesterday
There's a song in my heart
I'm standing
THE CHARACTERS AND EVENTS DEPICTED
IN THE SHOW ARE FICTITIOUS

THE JUDGE IN CHARGE IS THE PARENT OF
THE VICTIM IN THE DEFENDANT'S PRIOR CASE
SEARCH RULING
HWANG IN-JUN
CASE 2017P2027
SEOUL FAMILY COUR DISPOSITION
CASE 2017P2027, MANSLAUGHTER
HWANG IN-JUN
1. PUT UNDER PARENTAL PROTECTION
2. SHORT-TERM PROBATION
Miss Sim was the guardian, then?
So it's you.
You're the whistleblower
who got her own boss kicked out.
She recognized me.
A motion to recuse?
Yes, Ms. Na is in a bad mood
because of it.
Where is Judge Sim
and does she know about all of this?
When we met, you knew I was the judge?
The judge in charge of that case, right?
Yes.
And despite that, you asked me
to reassign the case to you.
Yes.
What were you gonna do?
Punish the kids on behalf of your son?
I had to put an end to it
because it started off all wrong.
Don't you agree?
That's pretty offensive.
It sounds like you're blaming me
for making the wrong call for the case.
Didn't you?
Now listen, Judge Sim
No, you listen. They learned
from your decision that day in court.
"Oh, the law is nothing."
That's what they learned.
Who are the two of you back there?
Why are you attending
this trial?
We're the victim's parents.
Who told you you could be here?
Why are they in my courtroom?
Article 25.2 of the Juvenile Act
guarantees victims the right to state
an opinion in a protection case.
You've already submitted
a written statement.
VICTIM'S STATEMENT OF OPINION
NAME: SIM EUN-SEOK, MOTHER
- That's true. I did, but I
- So I'll take that into account.
Protection case trials are supposed
to be held behind closed doors,
so you can't be here.
What?
Hwang In-jun. Baek Do-hyeon.
Eleven-year-olds.
First-time offenders.
They said that they regretted
what they had done.
You think other judges
would have decided differently?
It was the correct decision!
Sure.
You believe.
You always make the right decision.
It was only three minutes.
They killed a person.
And that was how long they stood at trial.
What could they have learned from that?
"The law doesn't protect all victims."
"Oh!"
"The law is so simple."
"It takes three minutes
to get through a trial."
Five years ago
when they stood trial for the first time,
you should've taught those boys then,
exactly how the brick they threw
just for fun
destroyed a family
and ruined the rest of their lives.
Neither their schools nor their families
made them realize it.
At the very least, the court
could have taught them that lesson.
Because that is our job.
Already? But
Hey, let's go get some food.
That's the way the law is.
You know that.
Juvenile cases
are all about speed.
That's why they turned out like that!
Why do you handle all cases with speed?
What about the kids
who can't keep up with it?
And the victims?
Who's responsible for them?
That's not being efficient.
It's irresponsible.
Why
don't you have
some kind of sense of duty?
Ms. Sim, I learned a lot from you today.
For such an honorable judge,
you sure ignored the conflict of interest.
Will you be able to speak so eloquently
to the Disciplinary Committee?
I look forward to it.
And one more thing.
Moving forward, you're excluded
from In-jun's Protection Case
and the Yeonhwa Gang Rape Case
which is Dong-gyun
and Gyeong-su's criminal case.
But you're so smart.
You must already know that.
Judge Sim.
PRESIDING JUDGE'S OFFICE
Kang Seon-a is here
at the court with her sister.
What would you like to do?
Kang Seon-a?
Hwang In-jun.
I heard he denied being an accomplice.
Is that true?
Why me of all people?
I think about it. Really, every day.
"Why me?"
"What was it that I did wrong?"
"Why was I chosen?"
I was just online chatting.
In the chat room, Hwang In-jun,
he said he was a student.
I talked about my problems and my mom
and he gave me advice.
That day, I was stressed out
from a fight with my best friend.
So he suggested that we meet
and talk for a bit.
That's why I went out.
But I shouldn't have.
Because of me, even my dad
Well, do you think
that Hwang In-jun
will just get away with it?
You mentioned Baek Do-hyeon.
Why was that?
There might be four boys,
not just the three.
Seo Dong-gyun, O Gyeong-su, Hwang In-jun
and Baek Do-hyeon.
Cha Tae-ju.
You're no longer in charge of the case.
You could get in serious trouble.
I know.
I shouldn't be doing this.
But isn't it horrible?
They're more evil than
five years ago.
I'm not insisting I handle this case.
But if the case gets closed this way,
we may no longer get a chance
to sentence them properly.
One of the kids I'm in charge of
ran away from home and committed theft.
This is Cha Tae-ju.
Judge Cha, it's
the Juvenile Classification Center.
Ah, yes, hi.
Baek Ha-rin,
the girl you sent to us.
We just got her physical results back.
And, well, it says
that she's pregnant.
She's pregnant?
Ha-rin,
I'm really worried about you.
Did you tell your father?
Jeez, I don't know.
Fuck.
What are you going to do now?
The gang rape case
was up at National Petition.
Who the fuck do you think runs the gang?
Don't change the subject.
Fucking hell.
Those assholes are the ones who did it.
I got pregnant when I was
with that runaway family.
Baek Do-hyeon, that asshole.
What? Who did you
Baek Do-hyeon.
He belongs to the same
runaway family as the other three.
They motel owners all know them
for prostitution.
Fuck. My sister is in room 302 now.
- Come on, open the door.
- Who are you?
She's a minor, fuck.
- The police?
- For fuck's sake, come on!
Man, where's the fucking key?
- I said open it now!
- Open the fucking door!
- All right, all right, take it.
- Shit.
Who are you? What are you doing here?
Here you go.
- Why are
- What's this?
What?
Piece of shit!
- You're rich, man!
- Yeah, you look nice.
Fuck.
- You fuck.
- Why are you
I'm her brother.
What? Her brother?
Should I send this to your wife
or maybe your kids' school?
- Huh?
- No, no. I'm really sorry. I'm so sorry!
- I'm sorry.
- Fucking shit!
You stupid asshole.
This fucking bastard has a death wish.
Hey!
- Thank you.
- Good job.
Hey, In-jun.
All right.
- Fuck, thank you.
- Hey.
- Here.
- Fuck, what's that for?
Thanks, Do-hyeon.
- Fuck off, moron.
- Jeez, son of a bitch.
What should we get for dinner?
How about chicken?
Hey.
So where's my cut?
I told you to fucking wait.
You're so annoying.
Hey. Didn't you want
to buy some shoes?
Come here.
They conned the victims
out of millions of won each time.
They made all that money
and didn't share any of it with her.
So she ran away.
The boss of the gang is Baek Do-hyeon.
No one dares to touch him.
When he grabs a knife,
he turns into a total psycho.
He starts stabbing.
Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su, those morons.
They're older than him,
but they're both idiots.
You really think those dumbasses
could do it without Do-hyeon?
That's fucking hilarious.
No, that can't be true.
Only three boys
were caught on CCTV.
Baek Do-hyeon wasn't there.
I know that.
But that's what she said, okay?
Whatever the truth is,
this case will be taken care of
without your help.
So please stop
stressing about it.
I mean, what if you get sent
to the Disciplinary Committee?
That's what you're afraid of?
I am afraid of what they'll become
if they're already like this.
"Whatever the truth is,
this case will be taken care of
without your help."
That's why they're like that.
Because of judges like us.
They're really notorious.
Every motel owner
on the street knows them.
But they stay quiet because they're afraid
to lose customers.
I'll text you an address now.
From where the latest victim was.
I think
it was four or five boys.
They just barged in.
And then they threatened
to put my motel in trouble.
- Here. There they are.
- What the fuck! Come out!
- Come out! My sister is here. My sister.
- Look at them.
- My sister is
- Nothing like that happens here.
Fuck, my sister is
- Hey, let's go. Come on.
- Open this now!
An old man
and a young girl came in, right?
She's my sister. Hurry up!
Give me the key.
- Cooperate with us.
- You bitch!
- Open the door now!
- What are you looking at, asshole?
This is Sim Eun-seok.
Can you send me a list of the runaway kids
our court is in charge of?
Yes, girls. Cases from last
six months, ASAP.
I don't know Hwang In-jun,
but I've heard of
Baek Do-hyeon.
I've heard awful rumors
about his runaway family.
So I've never met him.
And, well, I heard that he uses girls.
Can you tell me in detail?
Why should I bother?
I don't want to know anything about it.
I'm not a part of it anymore.
Aren't you?
Let's find out whether or not
you've been involved at court.
VIOLATION: DID NOT ANSWER CALL IN DUE TIME
I don't know Do-hyeon,
but I know his girl.
We shared a room at a facility.
Well, I don't know
if she's dating him still.
Shit.
That damn son of a bitch.
Ask me anything.
I'll tell you everything I know.
WE STRONGLY OPPOSE THE REDEVELOPMEN There's this really old place.
The second floor of the Daeho Inn.
Baek Do-hyeon is a total pervert
and piece of trash.
He cons sugar daddies out of money.
But that's not all.
Those bastards rape girls to make money.
Hey, look here. Look at this.
This is fucking hilarious.
This dude is crazy.
They rape girls
and film it.
Then they threaten them with the videos
and force them into prostitution scams.
Did you upload them all?
How many hits?
And they even sell
the fucking videos.
- Are you leaving?
- Yeah.
All right. Later.
Hey. Who the hell are you?
Are you a pig?
It's no use.
Nothing on that computer.
Baek Do-hyeon?
You fucking bitch!
Shit!
You fucking whore! You fucking bitch!
Fuck you, you stupid fucking bitch! Fuck!
Get the fuck up, you bitch.
Do you know how much
that fucking thing's worth?
This is fun. All right.
Come on, bitch. Get up.
Even if the others turned out like this,
you shouldn't have, Do-hyeon.
You should have tried.
You had a second chance.
One of you should have at least tried.
Why
Why is this the best you can do?
Tell me, why?
"Tell me, why"?
What the hell are you saying, bitch?
You fucking bitch!
Oh, fuck!
What I want to know is
who the fuck
you are.
Fucking answer me.
Damn it! Answer me now,
you stupid fucking bitch!
Damn it.
Motherfucker!
Shit!
PHOTO EVIDENCE 1
It's you.
Shit.
The Yeonhwa Gang Rape Case.
Baek Do-hyeon.
You were there.
You were at the scene too.
Fuck.
Seriously. What the fuck!
This bitch is crazy.
Just babbling on.
You're right, though.
I was there.
So what?
You fucking bitch. Get up! Get up! Ah!
Die. Die!
Die! Die! It's okay.
You can die, you fucking bitch!
Die, you fucking bitch! Just die!
Die! Die! Die!
Fuck!
You fucking bitch!
Fuck!
Oh, Judge Sim!
What happened? What Oh! Can you walk?
Wait. This way.
I only gave you first aid.
You need a hospital.
Who's in charge of
In-jun's case?
I have something to tell you
regarding aspects of the case.
I'll be in charge of it.
I'll handle it according to the law.
Leave if that's why you're here.
I don't wanna hear it.
It wasn't just the gang rape,
though, Miss Na. Listen.
There's more to this than we even know.
Those boys were threatening the victims
This isn't
You're not a detective.
Judges have a duty
to get to the truth behind a case
using proper procedures.
You still have a grudge?
If you keep making this case personal,
I'll no longer sit back and watch.
If I had made it personal,
I would have sent
In-jun to the prosecutor
in the first trial.
This case is just the tip of the iceberg.
Those boys threatened the victims
and were using them to make
You have to go now.
Get to a hospital or I'll call 911.
Listen up, please.
This is the best I can do for you.
If you keep
making this case personal,
I'll no longer sit back and watch.
Please stop, Judge Sim.
You're no longer in charge of the case.
I'm afraid you'll get
into serious trouble.
That's the way the law is.
You know that.
That's right. I was there.
So what?
YEONHWA DISTRICT COUR JUDICIAL CULTURE AWARD
PROSECUTOR NA GEUN-HEE
ACHIEVEMENT PLAQUE
APPRECIATION PLAQUE
JUDGE NA GEUN-HEE
The trial will begin soon.
You really won't attend?
Mm-mm.
Go ahead.
Case number 2022PU3409.
The court has accepted
the request for recusal,
so the judge in charge
of the case has been changed.
If you want to raise objections
or discuss the documents
you submitted
in the previous trial, please do so now.
None, Your Honor.
Then, with that, the trial will begin.
Dashcam footage was presented
in the previous trial to suggest
that Hwang In-jun is an accomplice.
That's not the truth.
Hwang In-jun is just an ordinary student.
He's diligent and polite.
But Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su,
whom he met at an institution
constantly threatened him
and forced him to do things.
The master-servant relationship
tormented him a great deal.
As a result, he was frightened
during the police interrogation
and gave a false testimony.
Because of their threats,
he had no choice but to take Kang Seon-a
to the construction site.
That was all.
In-jun's DNA was not found
to be present in the victim's body.
The allegation that he's an accomplice
does not stand to reason.
This case
is only the tip of the iceberg.
These boys threatened the victims
and they used the victims to make
Okay, I understand.
So the testifier is here today,
is that right?
I'd like to hear what
Baek Do-hyeon has to say as well.
Baek Do-hyeon.
Asshole, you know I'm here
to defend you, right?
Make it quick.
Or you're in deep shit, you crazy dick.
Hello, Your Honor.
I heard that you've been good friends
with Hwang In-jun since you were little.
Yes, we were classmates in grade school.
We've been friends since.
Then did you know
that Seo Dong-gyun and O Gyeong-su
had been threatening him
and assaulting him for quite a while?
Yes. In-jun had a hard time with it.
Do you have evidence?
Yes.
We submitted photos at the previous trial.
These were taken after he was assaulted
by Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su
Uh, no, no.
Not these. Evidence of their intimidation.
Text messages or phone calls.
Well
The reason I'm asking
this question is very simple.
In-jun's testimony is not consistent
with Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su's testimony.
Sorry?
Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su claimed
that there were four culprits
involved in this case.
Including the defendant, In-jun,
and the testifier, Baek Do-hyeon.
Hwang In-jun's trial
is set for next week.
And I have been ordered
to listen to you two before the trial.
Of course, whatever you say here
won't have any effect
on your criminal trial.
We just want to hear your thoughts.
Ah, but
this is your last chance to bring up
anything else about In-jun's case.
Was he really not an accomplice?
Did you guys threaten him?
You can say, if there's nothing.
Yeah, there's nothing.
Okay.
If that's it, I can't help it.
You can remain silent.
However, if you choose
to give a false testimony,
it may actually work against you.
I'll say it one last time.
This will be your last chance
to make a statement about it.
Sign your names.
Judge Sim. Are you okay?
Yes, I am.
We should've come faster.
No.
You came right on time.
Now I'm absolutely sure.
Please investigate the evidence here.
And keep it secret.
Okay. But first,
you need to get to a hospital.
Actually, it wasn't three.
It was four.
Just tell him, fuck.
Me and him, Hwang In-jun,
and Baek Do-hyeon did it together.
We fucked whores
like Seon-a and filmed it.
And then we used it to threaten them or
- use them for scams.
- We sold the videos too.
A lot of people like that kind of stuff.
But we didn't know she went
to a hospital to get checked.
Seon-a, that stupid bitch.
Argh! Girls are usually quiet.
- Right? Aren't they?
- Yeah.
But they were Baek Do-hyeon's orders.
If we don't listen, he stabs us.
This dude got stabbed.
When I first met him,
I thought he was jack shit.
Then he stabbed me right here
and laughed about it, fucker.
And I'm older
than that son of a bitch.
He's a crazy dickhead.
What are they saying?
Those fucking bastards.
Huh?
You fucking bitch!
Even if the others
turned out like this,
you shouldn't have, Do-hyeon.
You should have tried.
You had a second chance.
What could they
have learned from that?
"The law doesn't protect all victims."
"Oh, the law is so simple."
"It takes three minutes
to get through a trial."
Why do you handle all cases with speed?
What about the kids
who can't keep up with it?
And the victims?
Who's responsible for them?
We haven't found all the victims yet.
So the court should report Baek Do-hyeon
when In-jun's trial is over.
Oh, there was a computer in his hideout.
It's likely he used it
to distribute the sex videos.
But we didn't find anything on it.
Based on the statements,
he must have a secret phone.
We're looking,
but we haven't found that either.
A secret phone?
Yes. I'm sure it will prove
that he's an accomplice.
Objection, Your Honor.
They're just statements
made by the defendants.
There's no direct evidence
showing In-jun and Do-hyeon
are accomplices.
The evidence
that we're about to show you now
is from Baek Do-hyeon's secret phone
which Hwang In-jun brought
to the crime scene.
THREESOME GIRL
YEONHWA SEX CLUB
BITCHES WITH HUGE TITS
Seon-a, just pat me on the head.
Show that bitch's face to the camera.
Fucking bitch.
One, two, three.
I don't believe it.
I clearly was Fuck.
I told you
not to touch that bitch.
Only runaway girls, asshole.
Stop being a little bitch.
I deleted everything.
And I got rid of all the proof.
Enough shit. I want money.
Well, who's a big boy now?
Wow, asshole.
I'll defend you, you dumbass.
If you fuck up
or things go wrong,
I'll come clean about you, asshole.
Do it.
Hey, hey.
You fucking bastard!
You're a crazy fucking asshole!
Well, fuck, you dickhead!
Fucking bullshit!
Fuck this shit! Fuck!
Are you happy now?
I said I'll save you.
Fucking coward.
Baek Do-hyeon's dad called us.
Because the police are only interrogating
Hwang In-jun and us.
We can't fucking get away with it.
They found our DNA.
His dad said
exclude Baek Do-hyeon,
and he'd hire an attorney to defend us.
If we serve time, he'd give us each
50 million won.
Those fucking bastards! Fuck!
Be quiet.
Your Honor, Do-hyeon forced me.
Shut up, motherfucker.
I was afraid. I had no choice!
- Settle down.
- You fucking said she looked tasty.
And we'd make
a shit ton of money!
Yeah, but then, you took it all.
That's why they fucking damned you out!
- Be quiet!
- You bastard.
We pretended to be your friends.
Are you happy?
You asshole! You fucking dick!
- Stop it! Stop!
- Hey, do I look easy to you?
You motherfucker!
- Go fuck yourself, you bastard!
- Execute that jerk! Execute him! Fuck!
Stop talking shit,
- you little motherfucker!
- You made me do it, asshole!
- You shitty shithead!
- I said stop! Baek Do-hyeon!
- Judge, that asshole is as bad all of 'em.
- You fucking bastard! I'll kill you!
I did it because he kept egging me on.
- You love having sex, you moron!
- Hey, knock it off!
- You fucking perv, you sniff girls' shoes!
- Be quiet, both of you!
- Hey, you bastard! Fucking let go of me!
- I said, stop!
I'm gonna Let go of me now!
Stop!
Let go of me!
- Hey, you stop! Come here!
- You're fucking crazy!
- Get over here!
- I said stop!
I'm sure that dick
Do-hyeon has no idea.
He always carries around
a secret phone, right?
Yeah.
I linked my cloud account to it on the DL.
Just in case.
"Cloud"? You mean online storage?
Do-hyeon, that asshole.
That fucking snob really pissed me off.
Fuck it! No stopping me now.
That asshole Do-hyeon
and his rich parents.
He left home because of his stepmom.
And we only listen to him
because he paid us.
When my dad is drunk, he gets in fights.
That's why my mom left.
His uncle is the same way.
If we had good parents,
we wouldn't do this.
You know?
People wanna put like all
of the blame on us.
But honestly, I don't think
we were in the wrong.
What?
Aren't the buyers of the prostitutes
the bad ones?
If those guys didn't want it so bad,
we wouldn't have done it, right?
And the victims?
How is Seon-a at fault?
This proves
that Baek Do-hyeon and Hwang In-jun
were at the crime scene
and that they conspired
with Dong-gyun and Gyeong-su
to commit rape as well as other crimes.
All right.
The victim has watched
from the court interrogation room outside.
It must be hard for you.
But I'm sure you don't want
to leave with any regrets.
If you have any last words, speak now.
You know, I slit my wrist, right?
My sister thought I did it
because my school asked me to drop out.
But that wasn't it.
I have this best friend.
After what happened,
I texted and called her.
I couldn't ever get a hold of her.
Finally, after a long time,
she texted back.
I thought she had just been really busy.
But she said
Her mom said not to hang out with me.
I'm the victim.
So why am I getting all the blame?
When can I go back to my old life?
Can I ever go back to it?
There's one absolute truth
I realized working at court.
Anyone can be a victim.
It's so obvious, but no one gets it.
Kang Seon-a.
Listen to me.
If this case takes you into court,
you keep one thing in mind.
It's not your fault.
Raise your head.
Confidently.
Please let
my life go back to normal.
The four boys conspired together
to rape the victim.
Thus, they are co-perpetrators.
Therefore, this protection case
is now closed.
This case will be forwarded
to the Prosecutors' Office.
And if the prosecution files charges,
a criminal case could be opened
against you at that time.
Your Honor. What does that mean for me?
Come on, I I need to know.
URGENT TRANSPOR MINISTRY OF JUSTICE
Larceny, violence,
prostitution trade,
prostitution scam, and even
raping young girls.
How did children end up like this?
They say that it takes
a whole village to raise a child.
In other words,
a child could be ruined
if the village neglects them.
Those boys raped Kang Seon-a
and she wasn't their only victim.
We can't just blame the boys.
It took a village.
I feel relieved, though, now that we know.
The victim and her guardian
can finally sleep comfortably
since it's done.
What do you mean "since it's done"?
I mean, since Ms. Na
There's no end for rape victims.
It doesn't matter how much time passes.
They'll be scarred for their entire life.
That's why it's so cruel.
There's one rule
that I follow as a judge.
That is to leave my feelings
out of the courtroom.
I thought that was the only way
I could make fair judgments.
But I realized recently,
that's not entirely appropriate
in a juvenile court, not always.
For that reason,
I'd like to say something
right now to those
who have been hurt by me.
I apologize as an adult.
Hey, Ms. Joo.
Yes?
The hearing for Judge Sim is today, right?
Uh-huh.
I hope that they're not too hard.
I hope so too.

DISCIPLINARY COMMITTEE
Na Geun-hee, but why?
Judge Cha told me
what happened at at the court.
And so?
Well, at the disciplinary hearing
please, Geun-hee
defend my junior.
Why why should I?
Sim Eun-seok did her job
as best she could.
You should not stand in her way.
Don't you agree?
Geun-hee?
SUPREME COURT JUSTICE
DISCIPLINARY COMMITTEE
Put it there.
I said to get back to work.
But I'm worried.
There's no need.
COUR Hmm.
This is how it feels to stand down here.
They lowered the bench a lot,
so judges look less authoritative.
But from here, it's still overwhelming.
You think the kids know
the heavy responsibility of a judge?
Of course not. They shouldn't.
It's meant to be lonely.
COUR I'm sorry, Judge Sim.
I just I wanted to to say this.
The Brick Manslaughter Case,
Judge Na Geun-hee,
Hwang In-jun, and Baek Do-hyeon
When I learned the details,
I was disappointed in you.
What happened to Judge Kang
was upsetting, and even you
I was very disappointed.
And I was angry.
But when I thought about it again
I can finally understand
why you made such judgments
and said the things you said.
They break the law.
They dared unabashed
even at such a young age.
This is the reason I so despise you all.
Kids like you never change.
In three weeks, and if you lie again,
and it's confirmed
that you were an accomplice
in the sexual assault after all,
this case could
be sent to the prosecution.
You weren't swayed by feelings.
You followed your beliefs.

JUVENILE CRIMES HAVE RISEN BY
31.9% IN 2001 COMPARED TO 1992
Judge Sim Eun-seok.
If you have any final words, speak now.
I admit all of my mistakes.
I damaged the impartiality of the court,
its independence and honor.
I gladly accept any punishment.
Not your regrets.
Your attitude and thoughts as a judge.
The Supreme Court
reminded me of how
I treated young offenders.
When I was first appointed,
that must change, for sure.
However
I won't say that all the sentences
I imposed were wrong.
As a judge, I'll work to be impartial
and I won't disgrace myself.
But I despise young offenders.
Some may criticize
my attitude towards them,
and some may be hurt by it.
"Hatred."
It means
dislike or ill will.
Though I despise young offenders,
I have no ill will towards them.
I'll be sincere
when I deal with their cases.
Though I despise them,
I'll make decisions with a cool head.
Though I despise them,
I won't look at them with any bias.
In other words,
my initial thoughts remain the same.
But the context for them
is very different at this point.
There's a shadow
COUR I see the final wave
Crashing down those souls
Don't lose your faith
Don't be afraid
It's like a fever
In fact, chance
It's all to see the lie
So, yes, my actions
will be different from before.
But I
will always despise
young criminals.
I see, feel
I can feel the stars
Starting to fade away
Let the star shine
Shine free
When I shine again
With the sparkle in your eyes
Oh
Oh
Oh
Dried tear drops
From yesterday
There's a song in my heart
I'm standing
