Lawyer Kang Tae-hoon Episode 020

Chapter 9 Judicial Research and Training Institute! Competition of geniuses

23 years old. It was when Taehoon was in his fourth year of college. Slowly, there was talk about the law school system.

It was pointed out that the judicial notice revealed the phenomenon of exclusive monopoly and the resulting closed circuit of the legal system.

25 law schools nationwide were preparing. It was explained that graduates of a four-year college will be given the opportunity to take the bar exam for students who have completed at least six semesters of a three-year course after passing the law aptitude test for law school admission.

The law school system will run parallel to the bar exam for several years, and the bar exam will be abolished in 2017.

Taehoon’s choice was of course a bar exam if he had to do one of the two.

law school. Of course, it is comfortable and nice.

However, the problem is that the number of people walking the path of lawyers in Korea is sure to increase exponentially, and later lawyers tend to prefer those who became lawyers through the bar examination.

Tae-Hoon and Beom-Hyeon have already started preparing for the bar exam while preparing for the school exam.

In the case of Taehoon, after four years of high school life, he barely passed the pull-up.

On the other hand, Beomhyun was a case that passed right away next year.

But now it was different.

Tae-hoon himself was already preparing for the bar exam, thinking that he would be able to pass next year.

Of course, the bar exam is the most difficult exam among the national exams in Korea, and there are many who failed even after studying for 5-10 years.

That’s hard.

And recently, on a TV program called ‘VJ Special Forces Investigation’, I showed the youngest student who passed the bar exam.

It is said that he studied for 14 months and passed the bar exam.

Ordinary people would have said it was great, but the lawyers shook their heads.

As a woman, she taught the secrets of studying.

It was impossible for the knowledge acquired at once to defeat those who had actually studied for many years.

Even if they passed the bar exam, the actual practice was different, so the lawyers have a negative image.

Seoul National University Law School will be abolished. It will no longer accept freshmen from next year, and will be completely abolished when the remaining students graduate.

The officetel where Taehoon lives is too big to live alone, so Ki-tae and Beom-hyun often come to hang out.

“Children, aren’t you going out?”

Gi-tae looked at his watch and said.

“Originally, people who say they go out are making ramen.”

“Where is that… … .”

“Ramen will be our house.”

“Yes. brother. Shall I add eggs? Shall we not?”

“Ramen is an egg, child.”

They said it wouldn’t work well if my friends got together to study, but they weren’t. When I sat down, I devoted myself to studying for several hours. In fact, Ki Tae was already preparing for the bar exam.

In a difficult situation, he is determined to pass the bar exam. He did not have the conditions to be a high school student, and in addition, the judicial trainee was recognized as a civil servant with a special rank 5 and was able to receive 90 to 1 million won a month.

As an actor, he receives even a salary, so if he passes the bar exam, he will be able to live.

After the three of us gathered and ate ramen, we went out to the veranda to catch the wind.

“I really want to live with my mom and me in a 32-pyeong apartment, no more, no less. This house is fine.”

Gi-tae looked around the inside of the officetel and said.“Crazy. I think you’ll live in a better place. Is the goal of only 32 pyeong? You should get 60 pyeong.”

Taehyung chuckled as if swearing.

Ki-tae aimed to become a large law firm.

There are places like Korea Law Firm, but there are also a few conscientious law firms. Of course, the scale is smaller than the Korean law firm.

However, if you do it right, you can make billions of dollars in profits.

“Oh, hurry up. It’s really boring.”

Beomhyun said while putting his arms on the veranda. Anyone is bored This was especially true when anxiety about whether or not I would pass the bar exam was entangled.

“crape. The above student showed superior grades and skills than anyone else in the four-year course at Seoul National University Law School, and the leadership and consideration that leads the classmates… … Therefore, this award was presented to Tae-Hoon Kang, the representative of the graduates.”

Clap clap clap!

Applause followed Tae-hoon as he stood on the podium. I finally got a diploma from a four-year university.

It is true that Tae-hoon, who has never missed the top position for four years, is a talented person who is noticing the abolition of the Seoul National University Law School.

Wearing a bachelor’s uniform and wearing a diploma on his side, Taehoon grabbed the microphone to say hello to the graduates.

tock-

woo woo-

When I touched the microphone, there was a small echo. In the future, a black wave could be seen from those who were seated in black school uniforms.

“Do you see this? He has never missed a senior in four years. My classmates who tried to defeat me. Do you have a stomach ache?”

He smiled and looked around them.

“It’s a joke, so don’t throw stones. I speak like a former law school chief. ‘I’m going to sue.’ There were many difficult and difficult things as I went through the four-year course… … And the most important thing is the fact that everyone in this room is a talented person representing Korea. There are many faces you will face as a lawyer in the future. Everyone make it to the top safely. That is all.”

Once again the applause ensued.

He came down from the podium. An ordinary graduation ceremony follows.

And soon, with the shout of ‘Congratulations on your graduation!’, everyone took off their academic caps and threw them into the air.

After the graduation ceremony was over, Taehoon’s family clinged to his side.

Thousands of people’s eyes turned to Taehoon.

At the center of it was Kang Hye-ji.

‘What kind of luck did he have? Is your older sister Kang Hye-ji after graduating from high school?’

There were also some views.

“Congratulations on your graduation.”

At the words of his family and older sister, Taehoon smiled.

“Senior, hello.”

“Oh, yes, Sooyoung.”

Sooyoung, who was watching the graduation ceremony, approached and greeted Hyeji.

These days, Sooyoung couldn’t approach Taehoon well.

About half a year ago, the manager came to Tae-hoon and asked for it.

‘Please treat me more harshly. Don’t even look at me.”

And when Sooyoung found out about that, she realized that she was doing some harm to Taehoon and calmed down.

“This is what I wanted our Beomhyun to stand there.”

A crowd approached. They were Beomhyun’s family.

His father offered to shake hands with a small smile. “Congratulations,” he says.

“Where did Ki-tae go?”

“Yeah.”

“That’s it.”

The first thing I discovered was swimming.

followed her gaze.

She was talking in a corner with an old lady in shabby clothes.

She seemed to be his mother.

‘Child, what are you ashamed of?’

Taehoon and Beomhyun chuckled. I guess I’m here because I’m ashamed to be among them.

However, Tae-Hoon and Beom-Hyeon do not pinch his mother’s behavior.

He is a wonderful person who sent Ki-tae to Seoul National University Law School under difficult circumstances.

“Hey, Han Gi-tae, what are you doing there! Aren’t you coming to work soon? I need to take a picture!”

Taehyung shakes his hand.

He came along with his mother with a shy expression on his face.

“Mom, did I tell you? Beomhyun and Taehoon are my close friends. Our school seniors.”

“It’s these guys. He’s handsome and tall.”

Gi-tae’s mother also looked embarrassed. However, Beomhyun and Taehoon were politely polite.

The three of them posed for a pose and the family stood together behind them.

the swimmer shouts

“Come on, take a picture! one two! three! Kimchi!”

“Kimchi!”

Everyone smiles broadly.

The friendship between these three people may not change forever as in this photo. But for now, we love and respect each other.

February 22nd. Passed the first bar exam. The first exam is a law elective method. Students choose one subject from a variety of fields such as criminal policy, philosophy of law, international law, labor law, international transaction law, and tax law.

And the language subject was selected in English.

Confirmed via internet. It was the first pass.

Beomhyun and Kitae were the same.

Just passing the 1st round was great. In particular, it could be said that it was even more surprising since they had just graduated.

After passing the first exam, the next exam is on June 25th. Until then, the three of them were immersed in studying for the bar exam, and in the case of Ki-tae, he was tutoring because he needed living expenses.

The second was much more difficult than the first.

If the first was multiple choice, the second was a thesis type. It was the most difficult exam. It consisted of the Constitution, Civil Law, Criminal Law, Administrative Law, Criminal Procedure Law, Civil Procedure Law, and Commercial Law.

I took the second exam and it’s been 3 months again.

In his announcement of successful applicants, Tae-Hoon sang delighted when he saw his name, which had established himself proudly.

“Oh yeah!”Even though he was the head of the Seoul National University School of Law and had passed the bar exam once, there was a small amount of distrust, so he sighed in relief.

He then checked the names of his friends.

Again, confidently, Beomhyun was on the list of successful applicants.

“Huh?”

But no matter how much I looked around, I couldn’t find Gi-tae’s name.

He double-checked.

“Looks like it’s gone.”

In fact, considering that there are some who have not passed the exam for more than 10 years, the first failure is something that can be taken lightly.

A lot of people say that you only know the bitter taste if you fail the first test.

However, it was regrettable that we could not receive training at the training center together.

“Aren’t you squeezing this bastard?”

He thought about it, so he called to comfort him.

– Heck, he fell off. Tae Hoon. Damn me! To fall, we’ll fall together!

It was still chewy. I almost cried at the part called ‘If we fall, together’, but I understand how he feels.

“There is next year. next year. Then you can do well.”

-Damn, I tutored him too much. I’m sure I’ll pass as a senior next year!

He vows to weep.

“More than that, what do I want to do?”

No grades are given after passing. Only after entering the training center will you be able to find out who the chief is.

He is very much looking forward to his rank.

He soon returned the phone and announced his acceptance.

* * *

The third test was an interview. There is a small chance that the interview will actually drop down to 4% or not.

For that reason, most people think that if they pass the second round, they have passed the bar exam.

The interviewers were sitting in front of Taehoon.

It could be said that the interviewers were on a different level from those I had met so far. Professor Seok-Min Gong worked at a large law firm for more than 10 years, and although he was competent, he was not as good as them.

In the interview for the judicial examination, a director of the high court level was appointed. One senior professor at the level of the Chief Judge of the High Court. One Chief Prosecutor, Chief Prosecutor.

The professors at the outside are divided into civil lawyer professors and criminal lawyer professors, both of whom were veterans with more than 20 years of experience.

In other words, all five people in this group had great power in the legal world and were also the leaders of the training institute.

No matter how easy it was to pass, I needed to be nervous.

Moreover, anyone sitting in this seat will be nervous.

A cold sweat was running down the back of Taehoon’s back.

The interview was formal.

Do you have character as a lawyer? Whether or not he had a quick knowledge of the law.

And the final question was asked by the president of the high court.

“Let’s take the case of Kang Tae-hoon, who served as a prosecutor and then became a lawyer. He worked for a large corporation as a lawyer and was aware of corruption related to slush funds. However, this happens and goes to court. Guilty is clear. But can Tae-Hoon Kang, a former prosecutor for justice, plead not guilty?”

I knew it. It was a sharp question from a person who had been living as a lawyer for a long time. At that question, Taehoon’s hands were sweaty.
