Good story bad cast
This was one of the very first kdramas I ever watched I still remember it took me days to get it's bGM "goodbye my princess" out of mind. I found it very interesting at that time but now that I have seen around 100 kdramas I can say this one was mediocre. Reason:1. the FL was just so so ... I was impressed by the wardrobe back then but now I have a proper understanding of good and bad acting as per korean industry and hers was bad ...very bad. ML wasn't very good either.
2. Slow pace .. thanks to fuller plot this didn't seem like a big issue though
But despite everything this drama is close to my heart for the fact that this was one of those dramas that introduced me to kdramas ... And it's BGM is so dope .. I still hear these songs every once in a while. ❤️

Yay! She's working late!
Ep 7 – she's suspicious as a prosecutor – not gullible, thinks about the possibilities. This is good.
Ep 8 – her colleagues are finally respecting her. Nice that she put in terms and conditions like a real lawyer would.
Personally, she's a wreck but she's quite efficient as a prosecutor.
She's also good at making people talk.
Damn, she's a hard worker and so keen for the case. But she's not clueless either.
No conniving second female lead? It gets better.
When he's having the nightmare, her gentle compassion really shines through.
I like what she says in Ep 4, “I really do know everything. It's just that I don't always think the same as everyone else. But I really do know everything that I should.”
There's also teamwork with the lady rivals - I like this.
Se Jun (secondary male lead)
He's a nice team leader - “Later on, when you feel like saying. And if you need help, tell me.”
What an absurd...oh these Kdramas always inventive ways of being adorable and awkward as hell. Such a weirdo, this guy. 3 years since he's been on the dating scene.
She just lifted him onto her back. No kidding. He's crazy. And he's not a skinny fellow like Gong Yoo either.
Father Relationship
I roughly know that the parents strong arm their daughter, but seeing moments like this seems nice even though he's just being a scallyway.
Romance
Hye Ri is a satisfying character. “You haven't even tasted my wrath. Don't you even think about moving.”
Her calm face when she's asking him what's wrong – dignity.
He's got a great selection of vests.
Nobody in their right mind would let that person drive them home after discovering all the treachery.
Oh yeah, end of ep 13. She's great. Says what she has to. Confidently. Knows him.
“I love you. You bastard.”
I never understand how a kiss can be so grossly misconstrued by male leads / producers / writers. A kiss shouldn't take the work out for you you lazy buggers.
“Without you in the office it was so cold and lonely.” That's what you want to hear.
In Woo
In Woo is being a real decent kind of guy. Helpful, serving, kind. This is cool.
“She keeps finding the truth I've mixed in with the lies. She keeps figuring out my sincerity.” That's such a nice way to put it, don't you think?
I love this conversation in Ep 14 about her saying use your lawyer language and him saying her occupation is showing.
“My mind, heart, and eyes are filled with all your expressions.” That's a real romantic line, isn't it.
He looks better with more hair.
There is a lot of sad faced In Woo.
He's so encouraging teaching her how to cook.
Jenny
I really wanted to hate Jenny. I hated her on screen but felt annoyed because there's no good reason to hate her. She's reasonable. She's helpful. She's a good friend. Ugh!
1 year later... you better have grown more hair In Woo.
Hye Ri doesn't have a change of hairstyle. That's a first.
Her optimism is strong and she can smile at hurt.
Nope, he doesn't have more hair and he's insanely obsessed with those disgusting V-necks.
She's carrying In Woo, now? This girl is strong. I can't believe he even attempted a piggyback ride from her. So bizarre.
That's hilarious she can remember what he said a year ago and he can't believe it.

Frustrating female lead has development stages
The female lead is unbelievably frustrating at first, but it's definitely a plot device, and I stuck with this show because I've been waiting a long time for it to be available in my area! I really like how the backgrounds of each main lead are slowly revealed so I could be very pleasantly surprised! This is one of those rare dramas that gets better as the show progresses.I thought it might have just boring law cases, but each legal decision is part and parcel of the female lead's development stages, which I thought were very well done! I liked how she had to LEARN to have accurate perception and how each advance in her growth was contrasted with her past. I've never met a female lead that I detested at first, then grew in empathy with so I think the writer did a superlative job!
The male lead is to die for! This drama keeps a viewer guessing about which one she will choose, but I was rooting for "him" the whole time. When we got the slow revelation of his past, I was totally sold on him! This show is iconic in its featuring of two NICE GUYS for the male leads! I don't recall ever watching a show with two nice guys, and I mean really supportive, encouraging, ready to impart teaching, putting her interests and happiness first, knightly, gorgeous, magnetic, and kind!
There were no cold, uncaring leading men in sight, except for two-faced lying criminals, and that's to be expected. I thought this drama was remarkably brilliant in many jubilant ways! It didn't follow any mundane matter of course or common procedure. I could barely drag myself away to sleep at night!
If you want real kisses like in the good old days, this is it. You will even get to witness a young, baby-faced Lee Jong Suk!

Cast are really good. they have a chemistry. and look good together.
Music is catchy but there are scenes that are not emphasized due to lack of timing. not the proper song or music for the scenario.
worth watcing
