Recap of Episode 10: The Confession That Changed Everything
The direct setup for Episode 11 was the intense courtroom battle in Episode 10. Kang David stood trial, defended by the new law firm CEO Oh Jung-in, while being prosecuted by his former protégés on the pro bono team.
The case centered on conman Yoo Jae-bum’s claim that David oversaw a rigged trial that ruined his father years ago. The pro bono team worked to prove David’s corruption. The turning point came when Park Gi-ppeum discovered David was the judge in a past case that devastated her own family. Confronting him in court, she suggested he deliberately took revenge through the legal system due to his mother’s tragic death.
In a stunning moment, Kang David admitted the truth. He confirmed that his mother’s suffering, which he believes was caused by Yoo Jae-bum’s father, filled him with anger that influenced his actions on the bench.
This confession has completely reshaped the trial, leaving everyone to question his motives and integrity.

Meanwhile, another team member, Jang Young-sil, is poised to reveal a secret that could change the dynamic again. With David’s confession public, the pro bono team must decide how to proceed against a man whose tragic past they now understand, even if they cannot forgive his actions.
