Concerning My Role In The War On Mammon And The Hackberry Tree

In 'Extraordinary Attorney Woo' Episode 8 "A Tale About Sodeok-dong II", there is a conversation I would like to share:


Atty. Woo: Good evening, Atty. Jung, my father thinks that everyone is business-driven.  As a matter of fact, business circumstances Also impact every decision that is made.  


Atty. Jung: Yeah, and so what?


Atty. Woo: Isn't this what's happening to Sodeok-dong's hackberry tree?  They didn't approve to protect it.  Let alone declare it a national monument.  But why?  It's gorgeous.


Atty. Jung: Does that have anything to do with the case, Attorney?


Atty. Woo: If Sodeok-dong's hackberry tree couldn't be declared a national monument due to business circumstances, then it does impact our case.  Sodeok-dong's residents tried to protect the hackberry tree through their local agency in 2016.  However, at that time, Sodeok-dong was already on the route of the highway project even if it was still a secret.  And that professor we met knew all about it.  Atty. Jung, are you there?  Are you sleeping or what?


Atty. Jung: Yeah.  Atty. Woo, listen.  Do you know what time it is?


Atty. Woo: It's 3:10 in the morning.


Atty. Jung: And when it's 3:10 in the morning, isn't everyone sleeping, hmm?  Including dogs, cows, and Myeong-seok too?


Atty. Woo: What?


Atty. Jung: We should see if there are political circumstances around this.  That may explain the decision about the tree.  But let's do it during the day tomorrow, all right?  Why do it now?


Atty. Woo: Uh...


Atty. Jung: Mm.  I'll see you at the office.  Thanks.


Atty. Woo: Uh...Mm.
