The great thing of a forum is everyone can have a different view. Not giving any forecast here purely on observation of episode 10. With ending near the drama used one of the common kdrama trope. 2 women played a significant role in the trial of Da Wit. 1st one helping him, one wins both win, no need to know the truths and cover them if needed. The 2nd one if she win, all truths have to be disclosed, and Da Wit will loose everything (on surface only). And of course he picked the one in the most dramatic fashion at the end. What the drama told us? Make your own judgement.
Pro Bono to me is the best drama of 2025. Tremendous storyline, acting of the ml, fl, supporting fl, and members of the pro bono team all very good. Ending of episode 10 is a great turning point (which I have been waiting for). It shown the ml would never lie to the fl, and she knows.
By now viewers can forget about any mentor/trainee, even age gap problems between the 2 leads. Whatever their relationship going to be, it is built on equal terms. Totally different to that of Beyond the Bar
So far this drama has achieved a perfect balance, nothing is forced, no conversation is wasted. Don't forget about…
Bad news it is a 40 hours dramas in 2 seasons. But I still watched it twice! With the long term relationships stories the PDWRITER had put in great details to test viewers' intelligence. Actings are impeccable for all the 30+ to 40+ years old actors/actresses. It is still a comedy at the end. I would love to have Pro Bono has a season 2 now.
Maybe we see a marriage to CEO who resigned based on the verbal agreementTough call cuz her dad and her set up…
While most viewers seems only interested in the individual legal cases, if watched carefully the PDwriter had already put in hints everywhere, from ep 1 to 8, there will be a love line for Da Wit, as a plot line for his apple box video. So ship for anyone you like, part of the fun for the last episodes. This is where the difference to Oh My Ghost Clients, Jung KH's previous work.
So far this drama has achieved a perfect balance, nothing is forced, no conversation is wasted. Don't forget about…
I have put off Hosplay until this year thinking this is just a slice of life, medical drama. But it actually has a total balanced genres including friendship, music, medical cases, slice of life, family, and romance (it has the best marathon love story I have seen), and it is very light and bright like Pro Bono.
Seems the screenwriter is the same judge that wrote The Devil Judge, which is another really fantastic legal drama,…
So far this drama has achieved a perfect balance, nothing is forced, no conversation is wasted. Don't forget about the masterpiece Hospital Playlist where Jung KH has a super tough love story among the 5 best friends.
For all the dramas watched in 2025, Pro Bono is around brilliance up to 8th episode. The script writing is inventive, daring out of the square, the legal cases not worrying upsetting a few along the way. And the director, a genius (and naughty) using an end of the episode epilogue to give viewers details (and a bit of comical romance in a non romance drama) of what's behind the beginning of the episode. Just thoughtful. And the castings are perfect fitting the storyline, as well as the acting. Just couldn't wait for the concluding episodes to come.
just curious, is there any subplot romance in this ?
By the epilogue in Ep 7, there is special personal relationship development between the 2 leads. So all depending on what is the definition of romance to you.
It would be largely unsustainable. Running a firm costs money and their clients don’t pay
Large law firms have their lawyers takiing turns to do pro bono works, to neutralise their money making image. It is served as advertisements in a way.
They have no romantic chemistry whatsoever. I really hope they don't pair up at the end. The cases themselves…
Definitely all the legal cases so far are outstanding, Most viewers would agree. But seems most have forgotten how this drama began, the bribery video. The relationship between the 2 leads already started , and will likeky keep playing a key role in helping Da Wit restoring his career at the end of the drama. Chemistry obviously different for different viewers and anyone can just ignore the part not like. Note next case in episode 9 is going to be very personal.
The 1st 10 minutes of episode 7, in continuation of the ending in last episode, did deliver as expected, a mini climax on the relationship of this funny couple leads, before the serious part of the episode began. Their close and recently distanced relationship even highlighted by the smart girl Yoo Nan Hui. The PD writer never failed to deliver some sweetener moments in each episode in a natural, never overdone manner, making the drama more than one dimension and very enjoyable. And the epilogue!!!
Other than legal cases each normally lasted for an episode or 2, there are lots of personal interaction between the 2 leads. If one pays attention everything they said to each other is being followed through so far. And she likely will play a key role in saving the future career of the ml. So their relationship will be subjected to viewer's interpretation. Also refer to: https://www.lifestyleasia.com/ind/entertainment/streaming/pro-bono-k-drama-release-schedule-netflix/

A lovely photo of the 2 leads. Google AI review on Pro Bono Kdrama romance now included romance genre. Wonder how accurate it will be.
