"No, I haven't" "Interpreter, please convey clearly" "Commotion is not tolerated" "On the night in question you saw Kang In-ho outside the girl's bathroom?" "Yes" "What did he say?" "That he heard screams from inside" "So, what did you do?" "He asked me to check" "So I went in and looked" "Was someone in there?" "No, no one" "I see" "No further questions" "Please cross-examine prosecution" "What did you do before working at Ja-ae Academy?" "I was a janitor at Mujin Elementary School" "Then why'd you move to a special school?" "The salary is much lower than at a public school" "Well..." "While working at Mujin Elementary you were indicted for stealing and selling school supplies, correct?" "For that you were jobless for over 3 years, correct?" "Your Honor" "Prosecution's questioning is irrelevant to this case" "Objection!" "The staff and teachers at the school all have weak points" "That's why the unfortunate events were kept silent and hidden" "That could be the heart of this case" "Sustained." "Continue" "How did you come to work at Ja-ae Academy?" "With your background it wouldn't have been easy" "Someone introduced me" "Exactly Someone introduced you" "You even paid them a school development fund" "If the school should close due to this case you have nowhere else to go, correct?" "No further questions" "You examined Jin Yuri when a human rights center employee brought her?" "Yes" "What was your diagnosis?" "Her vulva was inflamed and her hymen was damaged" "Can a girl's hymen only be damaged by sexual relations?" "No" "It can be damaged by riding a bike or severe masturbation" "As an OB-GYN, I assume you've seen many sexually abused patients" "Yes" "What kind of state are they in?" "Usually there are severe lacerations to the vulva" "And they are about to lose their minds from humiliation" "How was Jin Yuri when you first saw her?" "She was calmly eating cookies" "Too calm for a girl who supposedly got sexually molested" "There were no other bruises or wounds either" "So, she didn't seem like a child who was sexually abused?" "No" "No further questions" "That doctor is the head council of Mujin High School alumnus" "And she's the president" "Your Honor" "What is this?" "This is the witness' first diagnosis of Jin Yuri" "This is your first diagnosis, correct?" "Did you write your diagnosis twice?" "But..." "Answer yes or no" "Yes" "The first diagnosis says the lacerations to the vulva and damaged hymen are not suspected to be from recent sexual relations" "The later diagnosis says" "Not from sexual relations but other causes" "In your second diagnosis you ruled out sexual relations" "Why did you rewrite your diagnosis?" "I didn't know this case was so serious" "Does a doctor's diagnosis change depending on the case?" "The first diagnosis said 'not from recent sexual relations', correct?" "Yes" "Then you saw signs of sexual relations before, correct?" "Witness" "Why did you change your statement?" "Is it really because the case got too serious?" "No." "It's just her hymen wasn't damaged recently" "It seemed to be about 5 years ago" "That makes her only 9 years old" " It's too young to have sex so" " Please!" "Is it possible for such a young girl and a man to have sexual relations?" "Even if it was, without the girl's voluntary consent it's impossible!" "Order!" "Order!" "Min-su?" "It's not good?" "Do you want something else?" "Yeon-du, aren't you hungry?" "I used to come to the beach with my parents" "Before I lost my hearing" "I could hear the waves then" "Now, it's too quiet" "The most beautiful and precious things in the world" "Cannot be heard or seen" "But only felt by the heart" "He/en Keller said that" "It's my favorite quote" "What did she say?" "She wishes I was her dad" "And that you're her mom" "Hey!" "He's a widower with a kid" "I didn't even get to date anyone yet" "That's absolutely crazy" "Don't even dream about it, okay?" "What?" "Why aren't you answering?" "Come on!" "Don't over react" "Tell her there's nothing between us" "First, I'll ask the defendants" "How do you feel seeing this child?" "Though it came to this" "She is still your student" "I was curious who started such ridiculous lies" "Now, that I see" "I think I can remember her" "Are you saying you don't even remember the girl you molested?" "I've seen her a few times" "Principal Lee is right" "She even has a mental disability" "So I remember feeling sorry and patting her head a few times" "What about you?" "Of course I know her She was in my class" "I loved her and cared for her a lot" "Which one took off your clothes and hurt you, Yuri?" "All three" "How many times?" "A lot" "Very many times" "Can you remember since when it started?" "Since I was in grade 3" "Chief of Admin gave me money every time he hurt me" "$1 each time to buy cookies" "He pulled off my pants" "I said no because it hurts too much" "I ran away because I was scared" "He grabbed me hard" "And forced me on a table" "He tied my hands and feet to the table" "That's all a lie!" " She's crazy, Your Honor!" " He's right!" " Don't believe her!" " Be seated!" "It's all a lie!" " Stop lying!" " God knows the truth!" "Order!" "Who told you to lie!" "Who put you up to this!" "Order!" "Settle?" "With those who sexually molested kids?" "The prosecutor said sexual molestation to kids under 13 can be annulled if they settle with the victim's parents" "What parent would settle after what happened to their child?" "Yeon-du doesn't have parents" "But Yuri and Min-su's parents have mental disabilities" "Damn bastards" "They purposely chose kids who don't have parents to take care of them" "If Yuri and Min-su's parents settle" "The principal sexually molesting Yeon-du" "that's all there's left" "PROF." "KIM" "Professor!" "I'm sorry to ask you to meet so suddenly" "It's fine, sir I should've called you" "I heard from attorney Hwang" "I'm the one who introduced you to that school" "It puts me in a tight spot" "I'm sorry, sir" "No, don't be" "It's not good for you to be caught up in this any longer" "It's the money you donated" "I added a little more" "We hope you will help in settling with Yeon-du" "Once everything's settled we'll support Yeon-du till she goes to college" "And you should continue to draw" "Your talent would be a waste to stop like this" "I found a spot for you at a school in Seoul" "They promised to hire you full-time after a few semesters" "I'm sorry, Professor" "I'd better get going, sir" "Mr. Kang?" "Think of your little daughter" "I heard she's quite sick" "They already settled" "Yuri's relatives convinced her father" "As you know" "He's mentally disabled" "Are you sure you want to testify?" "I can do it" "This is school?" "You said you were too busy at school" "Is this school work?" "Think folks stay quiet cuz they don't know what's right like you?" "If you wanna take care of yourself and family you can't always just do right and speak up" "I have to go in" "You!" "Is she more important to you than Sol?" "I was there when she was being abused" "But" "I haven't done anything" "If I let go of her hand now" "I don't think I can be a good father to Sol, either" "Kim Yeon-du?" "You say the principal sexually molested you, correct?" "Yes" "Did you see the principal often?" "No" "Then how do you know the principal sexually abused you?" "I saw him a few times at school" "And he dragged me to the principal's office that night" "Then out of those two men" "which one is the principal?" "Objection!" "Asking the witness to verify the defendants now is meaningless" "It's a very important question!" "Claiming that the principal molested the victim is circumstantial" "The principal's twin brother could've committed the crime" "That means Principal Lee Kang-suk is not guilty of the charges" "Sustained." "Continue" "Which one sexually molested you?" "Your Honor, she'd like to go up closer to look" "Granted" "Defendant 4022" "He is defendant Lee Kang-suk" "But how did you know?" "How can you tell the difference?" "They both cannot do sign language" "But when the principal dragged me to the bathroom or hurt Yuri" "He'd say one thing in sign language" "What's that?" "If you tell anyone else, I'll kill you" "When I did the sign language, one understood and grimaced" "So, this man is the principal" "Yeon-du?" "According to your testimony of that night you realized Yuri was missing when coming back from buying ramen" "then you said you saw Yuri get molested in the principal's office" "Is that correct?" "Yes" "You said you were heading to the residence when you heard faint music from the principal's office" "So you went there, correct?" "Yes" "Your Honor, that's just it" "Faint sound of music" "Yeon-du is deaf How can she hear music?"
