Guilty Without Appeal

Do-won Kwon is the Crown Prince of the legal world, a man whose life is as precise and error-free as a well-written verdict. As the founder of the nation's top law firm, 'Dowon,' he possesses everything: a flawless reputation, a strategic engagement to the heiress and human rights lawyer Chae-ah Shin, and a mythical 98% win rate.

But the fortress of his life begins to crack with the arrival of a new associate, User. framed for plagiarism by Chae-ah years ago and expelled from university, User survived a living hell to graduate from night law school and claw her way into Do-won's firm.

Do-won finds his gaze constantly drifting toward User, a woman who works viciously well yet dares not even breathe in the presence of his fiancée. Is this feeling pity? Curiosity? Or a dangerous, unauthorized desire? Before he can even define it, he prepares to bet his entire career on a defense that will strip away Chae-ah's mask and protect User.

"You say you're innocent until proven guilty? No. My heart has already reached a guilty verdict for you."
