'Law School' Episode 11: Jong-hoon plays a brilliant trick in court, can he also help Ye-seul face charges?
At the end of 'Law School' episode 10, Jong-hoon (Kim Myung-min) manages to hold a spectacular class for his students with a closing note on his case. He is on trial over allegations of murdering fellow professor Seo Byung-ju (Ahn Nae-sang), but thankfully, one of his students who is able to serve as his alibi comes forward despite knowing it will negatively affect him.
However, instead of coming directly and standing in the witness box, Seung-jae (Hyun Woo), the student in question, sends a pendrive through Ye-seul (Ko Yoon-jung); but on the way to the courthouse, the same gets stolen. Jong-hoon is also aware that the video statement has been stolen. However, considering Seung-jae coming forward, the video can always be recorded again. What he needed at the moment was to instill doubt.

This doubt is what would really free him; so what Jong-hoon does is to dupe the judges. He acts as if he has the statement from his student in a random pen drive, but refuses to submit it. He explains that the doubt that has risen at the moment should be enough for the court to find him not guilty. However, he also explains that if the court were to find him guilty, he would submit the proof that he has in his hand along with his request for appeal. Looks like it works out because in episode 11, Ye-seul continues to be defended by Jong-hoon.
He has to prove to the jury that she acted in self-defense. However, Ye-seul doesn't want to charge her boyfriend with abuse. She feels guilty that he is now bedridden, and also tells Jong-hoon that it is punishment enough for everything he did to her in the past. Of course, Jong-hoon disagrees, but for the moment he agrees to use the proof that she has to prove her innocence and not to attack her boyfriend, who blackmailed her with a video that he took without her knowledge by using a spy cam in her room.
Ye-seul's case will continue to be pushed forward while Joon-hwi does his best to figure out who really killed his uncle Byeong-ju. In episode 11, Joon-hwi will also find the pen that his uncle had always kept with him. Along with the logbook that recorded his insulin levels, his pen had also been missing. Joon-hwi (Kim Beom) believed that this pen would reveal the truth behind his uncle's death. Meanwhile, assemblyman Ko's past acts will also surface now that Ji-ho (David Lee) is ready to file a claim against one of the prosecutors who caused the death of his father.
There is also the matter of Kang Sol A's (Ryu Hye-yeong) sister Kang Dan, who is connected to Jong-hoon from a past case as well. She has reached out to Jong-hoon and her appearance may mark the end of all the atrocities committed by assemblyman Ko and his allies in the media and the prosecution office.
'Law School' airs on Wednesdays and Thursdays every week on JTBC and can be streamed on Netflix.
