The Attorney (Korean: 변호인; RR: Byeonhoin) is a 2013 South Korean legal drama film co-written and directed by Yang Woo-suk.[2][3][4][5]

The film in screenwriting and directorial debut for Woo-suk, 11,375,954 tickets sold and a revenue of ₩82.9 billion, became the 15th-best-selling Korean film of all time and the second-highest-grossing Korean film of 2013.[6][7]

The film depicts Burim case when 1981 in South Korea under military regime at that time, that during the authoritarian Chun Doo-hwan regime, 22 students, teachers and office workers who belonged to a book club were arrested without warrants on fabricated charges that they were North Korea sympathizers. Roh Moo-hyun, then a tax lawyer from Busan, formed a legal team with his allies, including Moon Jae-in and Kim Kwang-il, to defend the arrested individuals against the government. After the case, Roh became an influential human rights lawyer throughout the 1980s; he later entered politics and became the 9th president of South Korea. Later, Moon Jae-in also became the 12th president of South Korea.[8][9][10]
