The Legend of Return
Chapter 524. A New Beginning
“This is the material the Supreme Court Justice said.”
“great job.”
“no.”
Seocho-dong Supreme Court Justice Office.
Supreme Court Justice Oh Seung-taek received documents from a judge who is a Supreme Court trial researcher and his line.
Supreme Court Justice Oh Seung-taek, who had a round impression and wore thick glasses, was an ambitious person to be recognized.
He did not want to end his public career as a minor Supreme Court justice.
Luckily, I held the line well from the past.
I have been steadily stepping on the court elite course.
He started as a judge of the Seoul District Court and successfully completed the courses dispatched to the Court Administration Office, Supreme Court Judgment Research Officer, and Prosecutor’s Office.
He moved only within the metropolitan area, but had no history of being dispatched to the provinces to work.
After graduating from Korea University’s law school, he had a good background as he was from the core region of the current administration.
They also formed a wide range of exchanges and sympathy with the Blue House VIP line.
Rumors slowly circulated that he had been chosen as the next chief justice.
Junior judges took care of themselves and lined up under Supreme Court Justice Oh Seung-taek.
However, Justice Oh Seung-taek thoroughly screened people.
His line management was more thorough than anyone else.
Those who did not graduate from Korea University or who had a strong regional color were excluded.
It even created an organization called the Civil Litigation Research Association to select and manage judges from the time they entered the training center.
“Hmm… there are quite a few guys worth using this year.”
Oh Seung-taek slowly looked through the documents of the successful applicants to suit his taste.
It was the material that was secretly written inside.
The region of origin, grades in elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as political inclinations, were detailed.
“There are many juniors among those who passed the top ranks.”
A trial researcher politely mentions the information he looked at first.
He was a key member of the Oh Seung-taek line.
Next year, he was scheduled to be the chief judge in charge of warrants at the Seoul Central District Court.
It was the core of the Korean court power.
It was a place where the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office handled the handling of cases involving politicians and groups.
Even if the prosecution thoroughly prepared a great case, the scale of the case could be reduced or expanded by the decision of the judge in charge of the warrant.
The case of the investigation without detention, in which the warrant was dismissed, was very advantageous for the destruction of evidence or defense.
It is not uncommon for prosecutors to lose steam when a warrant is dismissed and cannot proceed with further investigations.
The first link that can make even a 10-year prison sentence probation was the domain of the judge in charge of the warrant.
Swish Swish.
Oh Seung-taek looked at the documents with more concentration than at other times and evaluated them.
I knew how to see the admiration to some extent, so I carefully selected successful applicants with good impressions.
“Do it with these guys.”
Oh Seung-taek picked out several documents and threw them away.
Out of about 20 finalists who were selected, only five were rejected.
“Excellent choice.”
The trial researcher did not change his expression and made a flattering comment naturally.
“Kang-seok’s daughter is pretty good. You’re young, but you passed the same grade?”
Oh Seung-taek brought up the story of the daughter of a junior high court presiding judge who joined him a few years ago.
Senior Judge Lee Kang-seok of the High Court, who graduated from Korea University and has good grades, writes every sentence flawlessly.
There were many juniors who followed him because he was reputed to be a symbol of integrity in the courtroom and to write a famous judgment.
Thanks to that, Oh Seung-taek was chosen as a special case.
For the first few years, Lee Kang-seok refused to join Oh Seung-taek’s line.
In order to show the taste, Oh Seung-taek worked hard and relegated it to the province.
Just as politicians leave the final dream of winning the presidency after passing through the National Assembly, so did the judges.
Following the Supreme Court, becoming the chief justice of the Supreme Court, which is one of the pillars of the separation of powers, was the wish of the judges as much as a politician’s dream.
Eventually, after being demoted, Lee Kang-seok, who had no desire for money, also gave in for his dream.
He handled the instructions given by Oh Seung-taek and perfectly joined his line.
And Lee Kang-seok’s daughter also took the elite course steadily.
“The grades are also excellent.”
“It should be. He is the same person who will lead the future Korean courts…”
Oh Seung-taek smiles more than ever.
His toad-shaped eyes were full of arrogant desire.
Oh Seung-taek was a person who considered the Supreme Court to be the key to leading the Republic of Korea.
The leashes of corrupt politicians in the National Assembly were eventually swayed by the judges.
Oh Seung-taek has lived a life steeped in such power.
I didn’t want to let go of that power.
“And… take good care of this guy named Jang Tae-san. Seniors and juniors who remained at the school strongly recommended it.”
“I have heard the rumors too. He is a very great guy.”
To put it bluntly, it was Oh Seung-taek who believed that the Republic of Korea should be run by elite judges, not by the people.
“It’s a thing, a thing…”
Oh Seung-taek licked his lips while examining the piece of paper he had taken out.
A sharp gaze aimed at prey was visible in his eyes.
Even at the meeting, I was ordered to take care of the convenience as much as possible.
Ilsonghoe, Oh Seung-taek’s strongest connection.
During his rise to the Supreme Court, he received the full support of the Assembly.
It was the same in the future.
In Ilsonghoe, he had no choice but to push Oh Seung-taek.
There was no one more suitable than Oh Seung-taek for the several cases to be handled when he was elected chief justice next year.
“Meet this guy first.”
“I will definitely embrace it.”
The trial researcher lowered his head and answered.
“Good days will come soon. For that day….. We must be the main axis. A rotten Republic of Korea cannot do without us.”
Oh Seung-taek, who is not arrogant enough to speak wildly.
An unquenchable flame of desire burned in his eyes.
***
“It’s a local celebration~ Congratulations Chairman Jang~. This is a great family that made our neighborhood shine. My father graduated from Koyeong University, and my son passed all his exams just because he entered Korea University’s law school…” ”
Chairman Jang, take a drink~”
“Chairman Jang! Did you see our youngest daughter? Her face resembles me, so she is very pretty~”
“What are you talking about! My niece’s cycle has already been promised!”
“You guys~ Stop drinking kimchi soup. Chairman Jang’s son is our eldest granddaughter’s son-in-law.”
“what? Your eldest granddaughter and son-in-law who are now in kindergarten?”
“The years go by quickly. Judging from how our eldest granddaughter is growing up, she can get married after graduating from middle school.”
“haha. Is this old man senile? Yeki!”
“Ha ha ha ha ha. please stop I’ll have a drink for you.”
My father, who had already been drinking heavily, grabbed the bottle with a reddened complexion.
The smile never left his father’s face.
I thought the world had changed a lot, but it didn’t.
Still, in Korea, passing the bar exam was the best fortune for a family.
2010 is only one month away.
Memories of the hot summer vacation have already changed like faded photos.
Last summer vacation, when I met Loriana, Sarah, and Vivian all in one place.
For 5 days and 4 nights in Seychelles, I forgot all the worries of the world and had a perfectly enjoyable time.
I enjoyed all kinds of marine sports including snorkeling on a yacht.
At every meal, I ate my fill of delicious food.
Didn’t even drink alcohol.
I think I drank the most beer in my life.
Sweet violin and piano performances were also performed for several events.
On the last night, I cooked myself and entertained the people I was with.
Sara and Vivian, who showed tears when they parted.
Unlike him, Loriana, who was Yahweh’s high-end product, changed her expression every moment.
Having to follow God’s instructions, she seemed to be in an inner conflict.
There was no second attack from Yahweh.
Yahweh was a tactician who knew the subtleties of offense and defense.
The glamorous vacation has come to an end.
School life in the second semester went smoothly.
He passed the second round of the bar exam, and the agreement with the professors was kept well, so there was no restriction on attendance at lectures.
Autumn came quickly.
At the end of the news of the autumn leaves that had gone all the way to the south, the final list for the bar exam came out.
pass of course.
A feast was held in a country house.
It wasn’t a big deal to me, but my parents’ position was different.
There was a lot of gossip in the neighborhood.
The feast ensued without even having time to stop.
Fortunately, my parents liked it the most.
“Aigoo~ Our old man is handsome~.”
“cohabitation. Who in the world calls you old man?”
“Brother, don’t talk like that. If you graduate from Korea University and pass with excellent grades, you become a judge and prosecutor right away. Then you are the old man.”
“Your second brother is right. My nephew is now an old man. Ho-ho-ho~.”
All the relatives who lived far away were dispatched to the celebration of passing the exam over the weekend.
It’s to the extent that I visited up to the 6th village in the 5th village, which I didn’t usually meet.
It was the last day of November, so it was cold, but my father had a party in the yard.
He said that he had to say goodbye to his ancestors and insisted on sticking to the house.
In front of the gate, ‘Congratulations! Passed the bar exam! A large banner reading ‘Jang Tae-san!’ was even hung.
The embarrassment was short-lived.
I endured everything to see my parents happy.
By the way…
“The wreath has been delivered.”
“Where are you this time?”
“Chairman of TS Group!”
“Oh my gosh… Oh my God, not only the Blue House, but also the military law firm and the mayor of the National Assembly, are you the group chairman?”
“You’re a character from the Jang family.”
“I’ve never seen so many wreaths coming to a bar exam passing party in my life.”
“The son of this family is so handsome.”
The ladies from the next town looked at me once more and whispered.
Roughly counting, there were dozens of them.
I started with the bank I was dealing with and even joined the securities company, and most of the places related to me sent congratulatory wreaths as if they had promised.
He managed his facial expression with a smile.
Today was a place entirely for parents.
Even my mother, who did not enjoy drinking, drank enough to make her cheeks turn red.
“brother. Really good!”
“My oppa… he’s really cool~.”
The twins also came down to congratulate them.
The Falton Hotel banquet team prepared and set up the food and all incidentals.
Even a full set of large karaoke machines was not suitable for a typical rural event.
Even if you look at it roughly, there are hundreds of people gathered.
“Isn’t that the mayor?”
“Both councilors came together.”
In the meantime, several familiar faces approached.
“I will give you a reduction. Chairman Jang.”
“No, the mayor goes to places like this…”
Mayor Ahn Hyo-geun, who was re-elected after being defeated, bowed his head first to his father.
The local farmer’s chairman is smarter than the mayor.
“Congratulations.”
“thank you. Senator.”
A father who does not hide his joy at the congratulations of influential people.
Being filial was both difficult and easy.
“Chief Jang. I hope to go along well.”
After Mayor Ahn Hyo-geun greeted the residents of the neighborhood, he came up to me and held my hand.
This nobleman Nucksal has become very good.
These days, I was staying away from bribes and focusing on corrections.
Then I saw that my perspective had changed.
It seemed that he could serve as mayor until the third term.
“Please take care of me too.”
“No, why are you two like that? I am still a student.”
It was an extravagant visit for a party celebrating the judicial exam with more than 1,000 successful candidates.
“Aren’t they all voters? I came here to take a picture of my eyes.”
“Hehe. you’re right.”
At the words of Mayor Yang Woo-seok, Mayor Ahn Hyo-geun chimed in.
But I know everything.
They came to make eye contact with me, not as a resident.
They were two people who got along well.
“Mayor An~ Come here. Let’s have a drink.”
“Rep. Yoo, come here too.”
The heads of farming associations and heads of villages like my father called the mayor and members of the National Assembly.
It was still a rural atmosphere in Jangju.
“yes yes!”
“haha. It looks like I’m drunk.”
The two moved places.
came out of the gap.
Woof woof.
At that time, a dog that followed me and barked.
He was born around the third year of high school.
Jindo dog mongrel.
Only one was born and took all the cuteness to himself.
He was smart and smart in what he did.
Among the family members, he followed me the most.
It was clear that there was a deep connection with me in my previous life.
“Let’s go for a walk.”
goofy.
The boy with a booming voice followed him mercilessly wagging his tail.
I went for a walk around the neighborhood with my dog.
The lab work was stopped because it was a weekend.
The construction site strictly followed the 5-day work week.
It was heartwarming just to see the construction site.
After the foundation work was finished, the buildings were going up one by one in earnest.
When completed as designed, revolutionary technologies that will change the future of Korea will be born here.
Love~♫ More precious than anything else~♬.
The smartphone ringtone then rings.
It was an unknown number.
It didn’t sound like a prank call.
Not many people know my number.
“who are you?”
I pressed the call button and asked for the other person’s identity.
– Jang Tae-san. I am Ko In-tae, the presiding judge.
