Being workholic is is good,but love life is necessary
I really like this show because of the great bonding between cha eun and Han yu ri because their juniors-seniors relationship.This drama change my mood from getting bored of rom Drama.Their was a problem with this Drama that I feel wrong i.e,the divorce between cha eun and her husband,her husband had a affair with her wife secretary because she never satisfy or love her husband,she only romantic to her work in the office and had a emotional connection with the CEO son not with her husband.so this is normal for husband to have a affair with someone if her wife did not provide him good time.If female lead had the affair this will going to settled down and almost ok but the suitation for male is getting serious.
Otherwise overall drama was fabulous and Fantastic I have fun while watching it.I am always looking forward to watching law relates dramas,so I satisfy with it and I recommend it to everyone.
Thanks

A thrilling ride amid lawful chaos
Cha Eun Kyung is a star divorce lawyer who finds herself embroiled in pain as her husband of fifteen years is caught cheating. Newbie Han Yu Ri who does not want to be a divorce lawyer takes her case and starts defending.Countless legal dramas ranging from Juvenile Justice, Again My Life to Lawless Lawyer, mostly delve into solving crimes and resolving childhood trauma. But this latest offering chronicles the bitter-sweet emotion of an institution called marriage and looking what breaks it. This is where the drama becomes unique. Instead of solving crimes or offering the same thriller story in a new envelope, it goes through real life and identifies the different definitions of love.
Jang Na Ra as Eun Kyung is glamorous and powerful. Her enactment of a determined star lawyer is conniving and convincing. The arc she selected in her mature years is more promising than her romantic days. Nam Ji Hyun as Han Yu Ri as the bitter-sweet persona, thinking unlikely of Eun Kyung is the much-needed determination in the tale. The chemistry between these partners is a wholesome meal served right dose of kimchi. The moment when Eun Kyung says she is aware of her husband's affair before Yu Ri implies the strength both of them hold in their thought process. Kim Jun Haan as the subordinate of Eun Kyung adds layers of love to the story. The gentle charismatic lawyer is responsible for adding layers of love to the story. Pyo Ji Hoon, the ghost from Hotel Del Luna is a fresh breeze. His love for Yu Ri is the break she needs from her strict life.
As the star lawyer wants to hide her loss and make her divorce story a tale of the decade, the story delves through the inner life nuances of people who make and break life. Directed by duo Kim Ga-ram and Ahn Ji-sook, The Law Ride offers a murky journey wrapped in quirkiness. The story misses beats at few steps, but the journey offered is strong and fun.

A MUST WATCH LEGAL DRAMA
It's been a long time since I watched a good Legal drama. This drama was not just a legal drama with thriller or suspense but more like living the life of a lawyer and how they're also just humans like us. They're not ridiculously genius but work their butts off to reach to that position. It was interesting to see the dynamic duo of two female lawyers who had very distinct approaches while working but one thing was clear - both were passionate about their work.This drama was so much relatable, I liked how they approached the serious issues like divorce and cheating in a very empowering way. In a life, things happens, not everyone's life and marriage is full of happiness and flowers but filled with challenges. The divorce to such emotionally tormenting marriages can be a new start, not the end. Meanwhile, some relationships can restart only after ending, and sometimes an end is inevitable. We have seen, both side of cases, favoring towards, male and female. Even CEG's divorce drama was shown with so much emotions. It was not about husband and wife but them being parents as well. Her husband was a scumbag and not a good and loyal husband but he was a good father, minus him being the cheater.
I also liked they didn't continue with CEG's love-line but rather focused on her work, her relationship with daughter and showed she didn't married him just for settling down but she actually loved him. And the way they shown growth in Han Yu Ri's character, from afraid to love to being in love with the man who supported her at every point. She was afraid but thanks to everyone's cheering, she took that brave step to accept the relationship between the two and how she cannot lose him, just because of her insecurities. This journey allowed her to look back into her life as well and her emotions. This was just a fun, healing drama for me. Reminded me of Hospital Playlist at times, though in different sense. HP was more loving, comforting while GP was more relatable, showed real issues that broken families can relate to a lot. And the way they didn't make things too serious, was enjoyable to me. I cannot handle too intense dramas so the interactions, between CEG and HYR kept me hooked to the drama, I loved their chemistry. It was so rare to see a completely FL oriented drama and loved it SM.

O que é um bom parceiro para você?
Assisti esse drama esperando nada e recebi tudo! Me envolvi com as personagens de uma forma carinhosa e afetuosa, ao longo dos primeiros 11 episódios. Depois de desenvolver esses sentimentos pelo todo do drama passei a acompanhar semanalmente e fiquei muito feliz!E triste ao mesmo tempo porque gente o tanto que eu chorei ao longo de cada episódio vocês não tem noção kkkkkkkkkkkkk
Achei otimo o desenvolvimento das protagonistas, arcos fechados certinho e condizentes com toda a personalidade e história delas.
Tiveram coisas que senti que ficaram meio ? Por que desenvolveram e meio que deixaram de lado kkkkkk um exemplo foi a mãe da Yuri, tipo amores? Apareceu e sumiu do nada? Mesma coisa com os pais do namorado dela (o Eunho) apareceram uma vez mas ok pq foi só para introduzir....... mas sei lá.....
>PARA MIM< foi otimo a Advogada Cha terminar solteira. O Advogado Ujin tem muito culhão por saber e entender que aquele não é o momento da Cha pensar em romance. Ela está em outra pegada de se encontrar como a PESSOA Cha, não a advogada Cha ou a mãe Cha. Outro momento de vida, quando ela estiver na mesma sintonia que ele. Isso é a maior prova de amor que se pode ter com outra pessoa.
O suporte que a Cha deu pra filha, esse foi um dos arcos mais lindos! Eu amava quando a filha buscava pela Yuri, elas se completavam bastante! (Estou me emocionando lembrando de tudo de novo kkkkkk)
O caso do casamento abusivo gente o que foi aquilo top episódios de drama que eu senti na vida real! Eu até bebi para passar a angústia que estava sentindo ao terminar esse episódio. Passei o resto do dia atordoada. A atuação de todos envolvidas foi impecável!
Muito feliz, que orgulho de todos! Dei nota 8 na questão de assistir novamente porque não faço isso geralmente então é uma nota MUITO ALTA TÁ KKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Eu amei a Yeri ter aprendido a separar a Yeri CNPJ da Yeri CPF. Ótima construção, principalmente quando a Cha passa a ser advogada contrária em alguns casos contra a Yeri. O final deixando isso escancarado me emocionou e me deixou tão orgulhosa que TIVE que voltar para assistir novamente. Good Partner vai deixar saudades!
No fim, eu aprendi que um bom parceiro pode ser muitas vezes aquele que você menos espera, mas o que mais vai agregar no final. ❤️

It's fine for wife to have emotional affair but not husband
Same story same actressJang Na RA just did two drama with one Story and two edited scripts.
shameless way to make a money with this low acting talent and unwillingness to work honestly toward her career
It's okay to have emotional affair for wife
But it's a grave sin for having a physical affairs for Man.
husband cheating because he was alone in marriage while she spend all her time with in office with other Man
but at end same like her previous drama husband is always wrong and wife is always right
Fake Feminism at its peak
when Male lead and Female lead are affair couple then its beautiful love
The Hymen of death so beautiful affair
Secret love affair
Green chair
On The Way To The Airport (2016)
but if affair is between side characters its most horrible sin now
dude was in terrible marriage in which they were not even couples but separated already but she blame him for affair
even after raise his daughter alone he shouldn't get custody ?
why that innocent daughter has to live with a Inhuman mother ?
And even after raising that kid she choose to stay with a helicopter mother just because faminism.
No story after that just time wasting to make some pennies

A real reprsentation. True-to-life stories
As expected! She knows her husband is having an affair. For an experienced divorce attorney such as herself, it is highly unlikely she doesn't know, much less a single suspicion.I mean, even ordinary people, they can know if their partner is cheating on them.
The problem is, you don't have proof. And even if you can get a solid evidence, you don't want to do it.
You'll think:
1. We can still fix this.
2. All I have to do is this and that and s/he will come back to me.
3. Maybe s/he just got lost temporarily, I trust him/her.
4. Keep praying and hoping.
5. Our career and reputation is at stake.
6. Our kid will suffer if the affair comes out. It's better to keep it buried.
The one who is faithful and with the suspicions, they start to weigh things. Who will have the most to gain if the affair comes to light? If you're on the losing end, it's better to keep it in the darkness and learn to live with it. Or, if you start thinking about your kids (if any) then even more so to keep the affair in the shadows.
Even IF you have an undeniable proof, it still comes down to: who'll gain the most if the affair is revealed. Is the cheating spouse? If the suffering spouse will gain the most, how about their children? How about your career and reputation, especially if you're in the field where you are a divorce attorney or a writer/author/blogger/vlogger who give relationship advises and tips?
I love how the writer, who herself is a real-life divorce attorney, exposes these things, these truths, to the audience directly, without softening it or making it dramatic. It's just the plain truth.
Yes, right from E01, it was already hinted that Attorney Cha is fully aware her husband is having an affair. The clues were all there. They simply sealed it in E02. It explains why Attroney Cha is the way she is.
We are who we are today because of our experiences. Attorney Cha is who she is today because of her experiences, and that includes how her marriage is broken.
Remember what she said in E01? Once a glass has cracks, you can never fix it. That is one such clue. You can never have such wisdom if you haven't experienced it yourself.
This is why the 2FL is the way she is. She still is living in a “paradise“. She still lacks the wisdom of truly living your life.
And… I've been there. LOL. I had my suspicions, and those suspicions were right. Those cracks? It is true your relationship will never be the same again because of it. What you'll do after, or how you'll handle it, is the only thing that matters from that point on.
Is it possible to restart fresh for the couple? Yes, it is possible. However, it only works if both are on the same page and have the same level of desire and maturity. Which, we all know, is rarely the case for us human beings.
So once again, 100 out of 10 for this show. It truly pays that it was written by a real-life divorce attorney. In addition, the writer demonstrated how important it is to consult with a person who actually is in that field or living such a life, or “grassroots” instead of consulting so-called “experts”.
This is what I call real and true representation.

Cast members are weak, over all, nothing special.
Music are out of theme.
Writers should know better scenes per episode lacks substance.
Some of the case are nuisances.
They can't get viewers attention because every scene are boring.

Legal drama with no actual court drama!
As someone who likes legal dramas, I was looking forward to a show with some critiques on marriage, divorce, and the whole female perspective especially in a society like Korea. I was looking for riveting high-class court drama and theatrics that would leave me thinking about how fair or unfair the justice system is. But unfortunately, this is not the show.The cases the lawyers deal with are not presented in any dramatic legal way that is believable. At some point, the cases were also becoming a bit monotonous with the stories about mistresses, cheating, and petty fights. There are so many facets and issues that divorce cases have. There are some interesting topics like the guilt of working mothers and how women are often blamed for being bad mothers even when they excel in other areas of their lives.
I also dislike how even though it's a show that's framed as having strong female characters, both characters have men panting and chasing after them and saving them or "smoothing the path" for them. I think this is so unnecessary.
