The Beginning of the Trial

Prior to the court's hearing, the prosecution has selected the jury that would play a vital role in the case.

On the other hand, Professor Kim Eun Suk (Lee Jung Eun) made sure that Ye Seul is in a proper state before the trial starts.
She reassures her that Young Chang's situation is not her fault but due to a mere accident.
Shortly after, the court officially kicks off with a new prosecutor highlighting that the defendant cheated the victim and accused her of "two-timing" her boyfriend.
To get the sympathy of the jury, the prosecution showed the images of Young Chan, who was severely hurt after the incident. In addition, the camp pointed out that he has suffered grievous bodily harm.
This was opposed by Professor Yang, who was Ye Seul's counsel and claimed that this was all lies.
Moreover, he also insisted that the defendant shouldn't be treated like a criminal until proven guilty.
