Sometimes Romance Kills the mood

THIS SERIES IS REAL PIECE OF SHIT....
Plot was well written but not always Romance is good in dramas. Romance between two main lead in this series killed the mood for me. Even though I finished watching it, this particular element was let down for me. Age gap between couple is never the problem but I felt there was no real chemistry between two leads. This seemed forced down rather than natural.
Main actress was shown to be so immature despite being lawyer. Side characters were strong than main characters for me.
Beside this, story was good and ending in every episodes made me curious for next one.

I wanted to love this, I really did. It got off to a great start but just couldn't click together. It was difficult to root for the romantic couple, there was just no chemistry between them. If this had been one of the first K-Dramas on my list the score might have been higher, but the bar has been set by others that were far better.

There was some great acting in the series. Choi Sung Joon was adorable and stole every scene he was in.

The music was decent but not memorable. It felt like it was there to convince you of a scene's emotion rather than complement it.

Now that I've watched it there's very little chance of me watching it again. Most of the buildup fell flat on execution, so knowing what happens will not put me in that same mindset the second time around.

That said it was still a decent series so I feel it deserves the score based on the suspense factor and some great side characters/story lines.

Well Written

Each episode is good in its way,Initially they were taking the cases up and damn I liked that part from this whole drama.The twin case and the case before that was too good.Min jun guk's part was a bit draggy. Then ms yeon's father's case was also very amazing.Each case taught me a lesson of life.If you like noona romance then this is for you. I somehow wanted mr cha to end up with ms jang as the age gap between park su ha and jang was evident. The romance part didn't go well with me that much but other than that the judge played a very good part too. The drama has suspense and will take you to the end. The drama was well written and ended on a happy note so if this is a spoiler I m sorry to ruin it :p Park su ha's character till the end seemed kiddish to me and mr cha's character was more mature but then this was a noona romance drama.
The acting of all the actors were just amazing ,I liked ms yeon and mr cha's acting alot. This drama goes to all its supporting cast. Without such amazing supporting cast this drama wouldnt be this good.

Idk if I should call this drama supernatural or not. Unless you consider reading other people’s mind supernatural powers. You can think which ever way floats your boat. This drama is romance, action, adventure, supernatural, and overall funny and aggressive. The aggressive part comes from the girl. The funny part comes form the guy. Which is why they are both compatible according to me. I really loved this one because it starts off boring and then when the two meet secrets in the past come to play. I love dramas that go back into the past and how those actions from the past become aware to everyone. And then the really action starts. I love it. 5ere were a lot of fighting parts especially towards the end. This is a drama with a lawyer so there are a lot of argument scenes. The only thing I didn’t like was how the girl was like so much older than the guy. But, the guy loves her. I don’t think that it works out very well. If only the guy can be closer to her age. Let me tell you their acting is truly amazing in here. Totally a recommendation for you to watch.

To long and too boring

It is a nice drama but I feel it was too dragged like instead of 18episodes just 14 would've done enough. The main villain was good at the start but with all the drama added to it it seemed like a 100episodes Indian drama which goes on through the whole year.

The acting of each character was great but I think the development of side characters was better than that of the ML and FL. There was little to no chemistry between them and the ML was a hot mess till the 2nd last episode.

I must say that I got extremely tired of this series in it's second half and skipped most of it because it had gotten annoying to see the villain causing a mess for tooo long. Then again the acting and music was probably the only thing that made me sit through this unnecessarily long drama.

In the end it is too long and too boring to watch this drama.

This was one of my first k-dramas, so I feel a little nostalgic about it. After rewatching, I need to lower my previous rating. I still love Lee Jong Suk´s role in this one, he is so cute. But to be fair, the couple has no chemistry at all except from the one of two siblings. The drama has strong support actors, I just can´t get to like the woman lead. I was more critic to the story too, especially the overflowing rightfullness and way too close and inobjective relations between lawyers and defendants, but it worked for the gradation of the drama and some of the stories were interesting.

The story is incredibly well written, there are much more maturity then in a regular kdrama, the plot is really captivating, and the cast is wonderful (to tell the truth I was really impressed by Yoon Sang Hyun because of his absolutely brilliant and touching acting, especially when even without talking, only with his eyes, he was capable of transmit powerful emotions), only there is one disadvantage: Lee Jong Suk. I know that he's famous because of his face and I really have tried to get used to this guy because he's one of the most popular Korean actors and I'll have to see him but, somehow, in such a good, unusual drama and with such a flawless acting as Lee Bo Young's and particularly Yoon Sang Hyun's, it seemed unbearable to me see all the time the inexpressive Lee Jong Suk's face with the same insipid emotion of discomfort. Well, the true is that about the chemistry between him and Lee Bo Young we also shouldn't speak because such doesn't exist. And it was really strange to see the deep connection and attraction between the female lead and male second lead, while the main couple was absolutely forced (also, these silly typical Korean reactions when the male lead wants to kiss the girl more passionately and she doesn't let him "cross the boundary"... all this relationship was the only unbelievable and annoying element). However all the rest has made me such a good impression that the only evaluation I can give is 10.

This is a cute story. I loved the storyline. Lee Jong Suk is so cute here. I loved the character he played and he was just a great actor. Lee Bo Young, I loved the part she played as well. A lot of family issues they had to go through... I don't know how they made it through it... The writers made this storyline very real. Retaliation is such a dangerous scenario for anyone to go through but it really happens in real life. This is the 2nd drama that I have watched Yoon Sang Hyun participate in. I love this actor as well. I love his vocals. The romance was there between the two main leads but who couldn't resist Lee Jong Suk? It's not boring where you have to skip or fast forward to the next episode. You have to enjoy each episode. There is some visual action in this. Something to watch while being isolated because of COVID.

i think because of the high positive opinions i do really put high expectations at this drama
which wasn't that brilliant as i imagine after watching

i did enjoy the nona romance between the two main leads but at the same time i found the romance was in the back seats & a little lukewarm & the development in it was slow motion

the writer focused so much on the lawful cases to fill the drama which took us several times away from the main story
this drama would be brilliant if the lawful cases was fewer & reduced no. of ep.

i found the character development for (Lee Bo) was really weird it was causative
when the reason disappeared (lee jong) she returned again to the same bad attitude ???
& many times i found that there were fake emotions on lee jong face while he was acting as if he wasn't versed enough with his role

but at the same time this drama was focusing on a very imp. moral which is
the courage to tell the truth under any circumstances & to admit & apologize for ur faults
which was very imp. msg for people nowadays

if u r that type of person who likes lawful cases much & moderate romance then definitely this is ur cup of tea

Typical Crime Kdrama

LIKES: Lee Jong Suk's acting for his character Park Soo Ha. He showed a great range of emotions for his character. Yoon Joo Sang was also great as Judge Shin Sang Duk. The music really tugged on heart strings in the appropriate places and added to the drama of the action sequences. Beautiful location shots; the aquarium and apartment scenes. Production was pretty good too; no shaky camera moments that I noticed and zoom in shots were smooth. The FX for wounds was well done too, looking pretty realistic. I had no problem with the age gap between Soo Ha and Hye Sung, but that's because Lee Bo Young was directed to act like a child with not control over emotions. She was portrayed as being in her early twenties and not older or a calm lawyer like we normally would expect.

DISLIKES: The blood FX on weapons however looked too fresh and should have been darker due to air exposure, etc. Yoon Sang yun often over-acts. I'm not a fan of his acting, but he did satisfactory with his role. The story, although a typical crime kdrama, tried to being in the sci-fi aspect with Soo Ha being able to hear other people's thoughts, but it was never explained why or how he got the ability or why only he had the ability. The romance aspect was used for the connection between Soo Ha and Hye Sung, but they had no chemistry and it was under utilized. In places the story lagged and could've been cut back, so the ending didn't feel so rushed.

Overall I wont rewatch it, but some people might really like it. This drama barely made my rating of 6/10.
