It all starts with one murder..
This was such an unexpected hit. I did not expect to like this drama when I first started watching it. This is easily one of the best dramas of 2021 for me. The fact that the story while revolving around one murder case, managed to follow multiple characters' stories weaving them intricately without losing steam for 16 episodes is amazing in itself. An extremely well-paced story with 3D characters who have their own problems and motivations, what more could I have asked for.
The glimpse into the lives of law school students and how various cases are handled in general, albeit being fascinating, lacked a little bit of realism, in my opinion. Although I am no expert on law, it would have been impossible for certain courtroom scenes to happen in real life. But what's a law drama without that little bit of flash and bang in courtrooms. Apart from that, my only complaint about this drama is that despite each case having antagonists and villains of their own, ultimately everything lead to one main villain which was a tad predictable and lacked that little amount of punch for me.
Other than that, I absolutely loved everything else. Yangcretes who couldn't help but give lectures even in the courtroom, Professor Kim who used the bad guys to eventually make the good guys win, Sol B who I initially disliked but grew on me as the story progressed, stoic faced Jiho, brave and beautiful Yeseul who's final courtroom scene made me cry, soft-hearted Bokgi, kind but a little lost Seungjae who managed to find his way back in the end, and even Yebum who manages to say the wrong thing almost every time.
Of course, one of the best parts of the drama for me was the will-they-won't-they couple JoonSolA ^o^ Even though the drama didn't specifically confirm that they ended up dating, in my mind, they are endgame periodt. Their little interactions sprinkled throughout the drama were what I looked forward to in each episode and they are what I'm going to miss the most about the drama.
