October 26, 1979, a presidential assassination shakes the nation. Taking on the defense of Park Tae-joo, the secretary involved in the presidential assassination, lawyer Jung In-hoo enters what would be South Korea’s most notorious political trial. Despite Park Tae-joo facing a predetermined sentence due to his military status, Jung In-hoo fights tirelessly to ensure a fair trial, enraged by the trial’s unfair proceedings.
The third recent film to focus on the assassination of President Park Chung-hee, following The Man Who Stood Next, and box office hit 12.12 The Day, which dealt with the post-assassination coup. This one features the last screen performance of Lee Sun-kyun (Parasite), who died before the release of this film.
