In a shabby office, he encounters a ghost who is searching for a lawyer to resolve his unjust death.
Shin Yi-rang strives to recover the ghost's memories and begins to uncover the truth behind the case. He learns about the unjust death of Lee Kang-pung, the ghost who was the husband of a woman named Kim Min-joo, and works hard to reveal the truth during a confrontation with her lawyer.
In the first trial, Shin Yi-rang faces off against Han Na-hyun, who brings up Lee Kang-pung's past and delivers relentless arguments. During this process, Shin Yi-rang becomes possessed again, causing chaos in the courtroom.
The drama's final scene ends with Shin Yi-rang lying flat on the courtroom floor, tearfully saying, "I really hate being a lawyer who sees ghosts." This hints at the journey ahead and raises curiosity about how Shin Yi-rang will resolve Lee Kang-pung's injustice.
