'The Law' Lee Sun-gyun was angry at Park Hoon's actions for stabbing him in the back, and declared true revenge.
The 11th episode of SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'The Law', which aired on the 10th, recorded the highest viewership rating of 13.5%, 11.4% nationwide, and 11.8% in the metropolitan area based on Nielsen Korea, breaking its own highest viewership rating again and ranking first in its time slot including all channels. Among mini-series, it ranked first in viewership ratings in the metropolitan area. In addition, the 2049 viewership rating, which is a major target indicator for advertising officials, recorded 3.8%, ranking first among the average 2049 viewership ratings among dramas broadcast in one week.
Hwang Ki-seok (Park Hoon), who held an emergency press conference with Park Jun-kyung (Moon Chae-won) and Minister Son (Cho Young-jin), uncovered the true story of the investigation manipulation case that led to the death of Yoon Hye-rin (Kim Mi-sook) and the 'Bau Fund' incident that destroyed the national economy. The body is Chairman Myeong (played by Kim Hong-pa), and he revealed that he will reveal the truth through an investigation without sanctuary. In addition, Chairman Myung's lawyer Lee Soo-dong (played by Kwon Hyeok) threatened to prove the facts, saying that he had secured a ledger containing bribes for corruption within the prosecution, creating chaos inside the prosecution.
Director Lee (played by Park Jeong-pyo) went to see Jang Tae-chun (played by Kang Yoo-seok) and confirmed that it was true that Eun-yong was with Lee Soo-dong, and then urged him to provide a list of investigations related to Hwang Ki-seok. He then met Chairman Myung again and told him about Lee Soo-dong's circumstances. Meanwhile, Eun-yong and Park Jun-kyung gathered the affected shareholders of GMi Bank, the successor to Bluenet, and persuaded them that they would normalize the company and compensate for the damages, getting one step closer to their goal of revenge for Yoon Hye-rin's unfair death.
At the same time, Eun-yong held Hwang Ki-seok's hand, summoned the special prosecutors, and persuaded them to stand on their side, saying, "Let's blow away the rotten superiors and join in the reform that will change the game." And Eun-yong escaped the crisis by detecting Chairman Myung's plan to attack him while he was with Lee Soo-dong, and Hwang Gi-seok immediately called reporters and interviewed them about an attempt to kill a contracted employee by Chairman Myung. At this time, Park Jun-kyung, who joined the scene, announced the news of Lee Soo-dong's surrender and continued his 'coercive attack' with the enemy by exposing the details of corruption that Director Lee had bribed.
In the end, Hwang Ki-seok suggested that Director Lee be dismissed, claiming that he had exerted unfair pressure on the investigation, and he returned to the special investigation team. Afterwards, not only Chairman Myung, but also Lee Soo-dong and Director Lee, who surrendered, and high-ranking officials of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office were intertwined and arrested, and Minister Son achieved the feat of being elected with an overwhelming margin of votes in the constituency. Together with Hwang Ki-seok, who became a public prosecutor again, Eun-yong worked hard to find Chairman Myeong's borrowed-name assets and eradicate Zhen's cartel.
However, Hwang Ki-seok, who held the hands of Eun-yong and Park Jun-kyung and held money and power in one hand, once again revealed his true nature of evil. After Hwang Ki-seok urgently arrested Eun-yong's partner Hong Han-na (played by Kim Hye-hwa), he betrayed Eun-yong's private equity fund by issuing a search and seizure warrant. In the end, Eun-yong squeezed the collar of Hwang Ki-seok, who had offended him, saying, "You will soon find out what kind of mindset CEO Yoon died with," and even in a cornered situation, he appeared confident that "it was Hwang Ki-seok's turn to pay for his greed." It gave me goosebumps.
When Park Jun-kyung held Hwang Ki-seok's hand and stated that Hwang Ki-seok had nothing to do with the past fabrication investigation connection, Jang Tae-chun couldn't help but feel disappointed, saying, "The senior has now become a real monster." However, Jang Tae-chun suspected that Chairman Myeong had a close relationship with the death of Oh Chang-hyeon (Lee Ki-young), and tried to find out the truth by interrogating Director Lee, who went to the Eastern District Prosecutors' Office at the same time. Eun-yong and Park Jun-kyung are expected to survive until the end in this dirty and petty battlefield of revenge, drawing attention to what kind of performance Jang Tae-chun will perform in the final episode.
