Seungwoo Cho decided to become his nephew's lawyer.
In the 11th episode of JTBC's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Shin Seong-han, Divorce', which aired on the 8th, Shin Seong-han (played by Jo Seung-woo) decided to file a lawsuit against his nephew's parents for loss of parental rights in order to gain custody of his nephew Ki-yeong (played by Kim Jun-eui). lost.
The broadcast on this day began with the situation at the time of the accident of Shin Ju-hwa (played by Gong Hyeon-ji), the sacred younger brother, who had been kept under wraps. Shin Ju-hwa, who was as thin as a flower that had lost its vitality after divorcing her husband, received a phone call from her husband's new wife Jinyoung-ju (played by Noh Susanna) in Hawaii. A harsh voice came over the phone, and I heard a threat as sharp and dangerous as a sharp knife. Her earnest cry to just let her son Ki-young go was washed away by the pouring rain, and as she was trembling like an aspen tree, a truck suddenly ran over her, ending her life. This is how the truth of that day was revealed.
The inside story of nephew Ki-young, who came to visit the sacred lawyer, was revealed. Kiyoung revealed how frustrated he had been, saying that he was more comfortable in the car than at home or school. To make matters worse, the driver he relied on got fired, and now Kiyoung doesn't even have a place to rest. It felt as if the inside of a car was the only space where a child could breathe. Sin Shin, who had been unable to sleep since Ki-young came to visit, met his nephew's grandmother, Ma Geum-hee (played by Cha Hwa-yeon), with a gaunt face.
He declared that he would give up on Ma Geum-hee's divorce suit. The reason is that the lawsuit, which went more smoothly than expected, was found to be suspicious. Ki-young realized that if the driver he followed well was fired and the lawsuit was easily concluded and Ma Geum-hee left Daenam Electronics, there would no longer be anyone by Ki-young's side to protect him. However, the chaotic days continued because there was nothing that could be done for Kiyoung right away.
After meeting Shin Seong, Ma Geum-hee went to her son and his wife and recommended that they send Ki-young to his uncle. However, it is unlikely that Jinyoung-joo and Seo Jeong-guk (played by Kim Tae-hyang) will accept this. Rather, it was considered interference in the name of parental status. Ma Geum-hee's heart became as cold as ice at Jinyoung-joo's seemingly deliberate action of giving his mother-in-law, Ma Geum-hee, a bloodbath.
As the heated argument continued, Ma Geum-hee mentioned the phone call that Jinyoung-ju had with Shin Ju-hwa in Hawaii. That was the extremely sharp phone call in the first scene. Jinyoung-ju’s face hardened for an instant. I couldn't even imagine that someone would have heard it, and that it might be my mother-in-law. Meanwhile, in the midst of these complicated and noisy days, Shin Seong got into an unnecessary confrontation with Jin Young-joo and once again felt the pain of her younger brother, who must have been heartbroken by her harsh words and actions.
In addition, it has reached a stage where Ma Geum-hee's intention to divide tens of billions of dollars in property through divorce proceedings is being questioned. However, the stories told by Ma Geum-hee, including memories of Shin Ju-hwa, who was more than a daughter-in-law, and grandchild Ki-yeong, who came like a gift at such a happy moment, exceeded Shin Seong's expectations and caused a small surge of distrust. The daughter-in-law, Shin Ju-hwa, who was sent to Ma Geum-hee first, was a distant and nostalgic memory.
Shin Seong, who had made up his mind, went to his nephew, took a small fee from his small wallet, and said, "Client Seo Ki-young, I, Shin Shin, will do my best to get you out of that castle. How do you think?" Only then did a bright smile spread across Kiyoung's face as he ran into his uncle's arms and was hugged tightly.
