e-commerce site in South Korea, Raon, has been a victim of spear phishing and the unknown hacker has compromised 80% of the country's citizens' personal financial data. With supervising attorney Jung Myeong Seok recovering from stomach surgery, Jang Seung Jun (Choi Dae Hoon Insider 2022) takes his place as leader of the Hanbada legal team.
During the trial, the CEO of Raon, Bae In Cheol (Kim Joo Hun Big Mouth 2022) is in despair as the situation becomes dire as Roan is hit with a class suit that could potentially end the company for good. He takes a cyanide pill in the middle of the courtroom and is rushed to the hospital.
Later that evening, Young Woo is still shaken up from the events that took place in the courtroom. She is walking home when she is approached by Joon Ho.

Meanwhile, Young Woo receives shocking news from her father that the CEO, Tae Soo Mi (Jin Kyung Melancholia 2021) of Taesin, Hanbada's rival law firm is her biological mother.

Sang Hyeon reveals that the partner and interim CEO of Raon, Kim Chan Hong, devised a plan to usurp the company in order to remind his partner In Cheol of the reason why they started the company. He asks Sang Hyeon to steal their users' personal information, but Sang Hyeon refuses and encrypts the data.
During the trial, there is a board meeting within Raon to remove Chan Hong from his CEO duties after finding out what he did through Sang Hyeon's testimony.
