Chapter 34

Attorney Kang Tae-hoon Episode 034

The infirmary decided that there was no way to solve it, so an ambulance was called and transported to the hospital.

I talked to the doctor in the hallway.

His diagnosis was appendicitis.

“Looks like it’s time. Continued pain and headache. throw up. You must have had a fever. I wonder if you didn’t know beforehand.”

“We didn’t know. I’ve been feeling a little sick since yesterday… … .”

“It must have been difficult.”

The doctor shook his head.

The doctor didn’t seem to care much because the hospital was a remote hospital where prison inmates came to be seriously ill or suddenly collapsed.

He soon disappeared. Inspector Son Hong-jun looked at Tae-hoon’s eyes and pondered the doctor in the infirmary.

‘That quack child… … .’

But more than that, Tae-hoon felt sorry for Jong-tak.

The initial symptoms of appendicitis are known as mild pain that goes down from the upper abdomen to the lower abdomen.

It meant that he was holding on to the constant pain.

‘I’m like a fool… … .’

I can’t even say it hurts. The continued discrimination made him “endured” even in the midst of suffering.

“Did you say you were sick since yesterday?”

Taehoon looked at the prison guard fiercely.

“Yes, the infirmary diagnosed me with indigestion… … .”

“Have you been tested? Or did you even try pressing your stomach? Or did you even ask about your symptoms?”

“that is… … .”

Anyway, if Tae-Hoon asked his Jong-Tak, he would be revealed. There was no law stating that just because he was a prisoner he was not without human rights and should not be respected.

“Then what the hell did you do in prison!”

Inspector Son Hong-jun became a honey-eaten dumbass. The guards who were next to him were also startled and surprised together.

You will know for yourself.

The fact that he discriminated his Jong-tak differently from other prisoners because he was a sexual minority.

“Patient Lee Jong-tak is awake. Are you looking for a lawyer named Tae-Hoon Kang?”

“Yes.”

“Ah, that lawyer, go away… … .”

Son Hong-joon wanted to go somewhere even though he was not a prison guard. Then Taehoon’s fiery eyes pierced him.

He groaned and curled his tail.

went in together.

He was wearing an oxygen respirator in the recovery room with the humidifier turned on.

Taehoon sighed as he looked at the handcuffs on the bed.

“Lawyer. It’s so noisy.”Jong-tak took off the oxygen mask and smiled hazy.

“How are you feeling?”

“It is the worst.”

“Then why are you so foolish about it… … .”

“You know your lawyer better.”

Taehoon’s words were choked up at his next words. The guards were watching from a little further away than Tae-hoon. They also have nothing to say.

“Did you know that I am the first person to get angry and fight because of me, other than my sister, since middle school?”

“… … is that so.”

Taehyung sat down in front of him with a bitter expression at his words.

“Am I not dirty?”

Taehyung’s heart fluttered at his question. He actually didn’t know why he was such an honest person.

How many months did he work as a public interest human rights lawyer? Or is it because of the people who smile the more he solves the case? Or is it because he is really living a new life?

The answer was unknown.

However, whenever they face the reality of discrimination, my heart aches and I just want to give them hope.

“Don’t say that with your own mouth. Everyone is precious.”

Taehoon reached out and wrapped his handcuffed hands with both hands.

“This is the first time we are talking face-to-face like this. We will definitely win the lawsuit.”

And Taehyung promised. He was going to do everything he could to win.

“witness. Usually, the plaintiff, Jong-tak Lee, thought he was ‘special’ and wanted to be treated differently from others. Is that correct?”

“Yes. He said he was feminine, so he asked me to understand.”

Inspector Son Hong-jun, who sat on the witness stand and made a statement, was to die.

“Also, did you find unauthorized items as a result of the room search?”

“Yes.”

“Also, the plaintiff must be dignified. Article 32, Paragraph 2 of the Act on the Treatment of Prisoners, ‘Inmates must keep their hair or beard neat for hygiene’ is strictly in violation. We insist that punishment in the punishment room related to this incident is absolutely justifiable.”

Taehyung sighed heavily.

Again, the witness interrogation was carried out according to his own thoughts.

He stepped forward.

Inspector Son Hong-jun could not make eye contact with Tae-hoon as he slept forward.

“witness. Usually, the plaintiff continues to use the solitary cell after being transferred from the Incheon Prison. Is that correct?”

“Yes.”

“In addition, it is argued that the punitive measures claimed by the defendant are because they violated the duty of cleanliness in Chapter 3 of the Act on the Treatment of Inmates and Article 32 of Chapter 4. Yes?”

“Yes.”

“Then I will ask you here. Is the book the defendant had enough reason to cause a disturbance in the prison for sure?”

“Hey, that’s not stamped in prison… … .”

A cold sweat was dripping down the back of Son Hong-jun.

“As you all know, the book ‘Daughter Like a Prince’ is a bestseller with over 2 million copies sold nationwide. If that is the case, then more than 3 million people in Korea have read promiscuous novels. together! The novel ‘A Daughter Like a Prince’ was written by the plaintiff’s older sister, Lee Hyeon-ji. Is it strange that her sister had a novel written by her sister?”

“The plaintiff’s attorney. However, in order for books to be brought into the prison, they must be stamped with the prison director’s seal before they can be brought in.”

The defense attorney on the other side showed a look of embarrassment.

Taehyung was not funny.

“So this is unfair discrimination! Was there only one manuscript in prison for this novel, ‘Daughter Like a Prince’? In addition, as far as I know, it is a recommended book within the prison. This book hanging in the library. Isn’t it just a punishment room just because it’s not sealed? In addition, the unauthorized item claimed by the defendant is a thermos bottle cover. It was debt. Does it become a weapon? witness?”

“Because it is also an unlicensed item… … .”

“Unauthorized! Unlicensed! If so, what items are allowed inside the prison? Let me ask the witness again. Does not one of the inmates have any unauthorized items?”

“… … .”

The guard was speechless. It was. This was clearly done out of their own discrimination.

Any prisoner had one or two unauthorized items, and one prisoner had an unsealed book.

Roughly speaking, they end with disciplinary measures and confiscated them.

“This concludes the opposing paper.”

As Tae-hoon was about to sit back on the plaintiff’s seat, his eyes met with Jong-tak’s older sister, Lee Hyun-ji.

She had a small smile.

Hyeon-ji Lee was somewhat surprised to see him doing his best for her own brother.

“Please give me a final argument.”

Taehyung got up again.

“Dear Judge. He must have seen what was presented as evidence. Among the doctors’ opinions regarding the plaintiff who underwent appendicitis surgery this time, it was also written that it was “dangerous.” That is why the plaintiff endured even if his body hurts. why!? Because people don’t listen to them!”

The judge nodded his head.

“Also, it is said that what the prison has prescribed is a ‘digestive agent’. Digestive for appendicitis. And in 2007, Korean prisons have already completely abolished the haircut rule. There is no rule of centimeters, although it says ‘should be neat’.”

Taehoon took a deep breath and looked back at the audience.

And he saw the defense counsel once and then the judge again.

“And after the plaintiff refused the haircut, 35 minutes later, an unscheduled room inspection was conducted. This is absolutely retaliation. When the plaintiff continued to refuse, he was punished in retaliation to catch the pod. With a book written by her sister. In addition, plaintiffs have been subjected to continuing discrimination. It was especially bad here in ‘Gwangju Prison’.”

Taehoon pretended to point his finger to the ground.

“In Incheon Prison, there were no restrictions on hair and I did not spend more than a year in solitary confinement. However, the current plaintiff continues to use solitary cells after coming to Gwangju Prison and is being treated discriminatory by the prison guards. This is the absolute right to disciplinary action, and we demand the cancellation of the punitive measure.”

Taehyung sat down. Defendant’s defense counsel followed suit.

win. That was the result Taehoon achieved.

The unfair discrimination was eventually revealed to be an abuse of discretion, and the disciplinary action was cancelled. As a result, this fact spread to some extent in the media, and articles related to Tae-Hoon were also published.

“how is it. Do you want to live?”Tae-Hoon and Lee Hyun-Ji visited Jong-Tak.

He had a much better complexion than before.

“Thank you, lawyer. It seems that the guards are also trying to be considerate to some extent. They’re not prisoners yet, but I’ll try to reach them.”

“Fortunately, the. really.”

It was not only the victory that Jong-tak gained. He also realized that he was not alone in life.

Lee Hyun-ji smiled as he watched Tae-hoon holding the handset and talking with her Jong-tak.

Evil lawyers always say ‘Unconditionally win!’

And Taehyung said.

‘I think I can win.’

But strangely, I also thought that I could really win against Taehoon.

And the answer came back to victory in the end.

she grinned.

Tae-hoon, who came back to Seoul, broke up with Lee Hyun-ji, promising a future date, and entered a cafe. He planned to buy a cup of coffee and return to the office.

However, an unexpected person came to Tae-Hoon.

He was none other than Han Seong-ho, a lawyer.

“See you here again. After all, there is no place around here that tastes as good as this one.”

Han Seong-ho looked at Tae-hoon and smiled.

‘Oh, I feel it.’

On the other hand, Tae-Hoon trembled at the smile on his face.

However, he did nothing to ignore him and go to another place to drink coffee, so he sat with him.

“Oh, I just saw this article. He robbed everything for ‘human rights’ and became a lawyer. It was a great title.”

“thank you.”

“But I really think that he is not a very valuable person to work only for ‘human rights’.”

Han Seong-ho smiled meaningfully.

“Aren’t you thinking of working with our Korean law firm?”

Taehun was speechless for a moment at the unexpected question. He said he was going to scout himself.

He would have thanked him by bowing down if he had been himself. Because the group of lawyers with an annual salary of 400 million won or more was the Daehan Law Firm.

However, he had no intention of inflating his seniority fees through lawsuits or wanting to be with them.

‘Did you really put it all down because of ‘human rights’? After all, it’s to attract attention and make money.’

While sipping coffee, Han Seong-ho was exhausted. In the end, he thought that the reason he became a lawyer, not a judge, was because he was a military judge, and he thought that he was trying to rake in money.

“If you come to our law firm, I will definitely raise you. Even if it looks like this, it’s a pretty big deal that I can exercise in a law firm… … .”

“I’m sorry, but I will decline.”

“You will always be with us… … I beg your pardon?”

Seongho, who could not understand the meaning of the words for a moment, smiled brightly, but his face hardened a bit later.
