Pro Bono has reached the part of the season where quiet choices start having loud effects, and episode 8 (set to air on December 28, 2025) does not exist to “fill space” between bigger moments. It works like a hinge point in the season. One wrong call here can shift power inside the firm, and one smart move can quietly change who holds leverage.

It's the moment where the show decides what kind of story it wants to be. Kang David, or Da-wit, is no longer just recovering from his fall. He is now shaping outcomes, both inside the office and beyond it.

Earlier episodes leaned into guilt, reflection, and restraint. Now the pressure feels more controlled and more intentional. So, if you look closely, the tone has shifted from self-reflection to controlled pressure. Conversations often carry subtext, and deals often feel calculated.

Legal drama fans will recognize this phase because this is where characters stop reacting and start acting.

Pro Bono Episode 8 releases on Sunday, December 28, 2025. The expected drop time is around 3 PM GMT. U.S. viewers can watch at approximately 10 AM ET. Netflix has been consistent with timing so far, and each episode runs close to one hour. That runtime fits the show’s measured pace.

The episode streams worldwide on Netflix, and international viewers can watch the episode as soon as it goes live. Subtitles usually appear right away. In South Korea, the series airs on tvN and episodes are broadcast every Saturday and Sunday at 9:20 PM KST. Netflix follows close behind the local broadcast. The release pattern has stayed steady all season.


How many episodes will Pro Bono have?

The show is confirmed to have 12 episodes. Two episodes are released every weekend. The finale is scheduled for January 11, 2026. Episode 8 lands just past the midpoint.

This is usually where K-dramas raise the stakes and loose ends start tightening around the characters.


Is there a trailer for Pro Bono?

Yes, an official trailer is available on YouTube, highlighting David's fall from judicial power. It contrasts high-profile law firms with public interest work.

The focus stays on ethical tension rather than courtroom spectacle. Also, Netflix and tvN both host the trailer.


Quick recap: What happened in the previous episodes?

David slowly earns space within the Pro Bono team, but trust remains fragile. Park Gi-ppeum stays firm in her ideals, and she believes justice should stay clean and personal.

On the other hand, the firm faces pressure from bigger legal players. Old connections pull David back into risky territory, and power starts creeping into decisions again. The verdict of Kaya's case was a major blow for the team.


What happens in Episode 8?

The teaser hints at a major shift in David’s role, and he finally explains why he joined the team. His reason does not comfort everyone, and Nan-hui fears the entire team could lose their jobs.

David strikes a deal with Chairman Oh, and Baekseung Law Firm pushes to overtake Oh & Partners. The protagonist offers to pull clients away from rival firms. A client meeting spirals fast, and Jun-u panics under pressure. Jung-in reacts with sharp frustration. She orders the team to take EK Entertainment from Baekseung.

On the other hand, Gi-ppeum publicly embarrasses Myeong.
