cases as long as they give him any kind of profit. If the evidence is against
his client he’ll buy the witness’ out or he’ll make new solid evidence. At his
law firm, every single lawyer thinks and acts the same: the more ruthless the
better, except for the new intern, Lee Ji Yoon (Park Min Young), who Seok Joo
had met some time before and ended up having a one-night stand with. She is
filled with ambition, talent and justice, but is a blabbermouth. The two butt
heads, and when Seok Joo gets into and accident and loses his memory; Lee Ji
Yoon tries to help him. However the amnesiac seem different somehow by going up
against his law firm and he happens to have an effect on the people around him…
I don’t really know
what I was expecting of this drama, since I only knew Park Min Young, so I kind
of still am in a drowse after it. The drama is a good one, but the financial
terms and discussions lefts me confused and dazed, since I had zero knowledge
about what on earth they were talking about. As a general you could understand
most of it, but I have no idea what the climax was about, let alone the ending.
The main actor Kim
Myung Min is fairly new to me, I think he was popular in Korea from before. And
OMG, his voice: eargasms. 80% of the time he was talking I didn’t look at the
subtitles, and made me go back because I missed it. Min Young was as she always
is, not a favorite of mine. The drama is kind of a realistic every-day, with a twist
of amnesia in the middle.
To sum up: okay drama,
for the serious ones.

Kamjis Verdict
Finally finished! A 16 episodes drama have never felt as long as this one. On the other side, I think I can easily become a lawyer in Korea now, the drama was bombed with all those facts and laws and stuff, so those 16 hours were satisfactory used.

The drama itself were okay, not bad as I had a hard time watching it, but not
as good as I was looking forward to next episode. Nevertheless, I managed to
finish it, and that was a success for me since I had many other dramas I wanted
to watch more. I can’t really say more about it without spoiling anything, but
one thing I can assure you of, the writers did a good job with all the
cases and trials. There were really intimidating and believable, so good job
with that.
