Good law drama on a unique topic - Inheritance, with a good revenge part on the side
It was refreshing to delve into the intricacies of inheritance and see how it was presented in the story. The different narratives—such as the family playing the "butler" against the maid to prevent her from receiving the inheritance, or the complicated business rivalry between half-brothers—were particularly engaging. The latter stood out because of the father’s clever will, which forced the brothers to reconcile and bond over saving their late father’s business.Haie was a delightful character to follow, meticulously handling each case to fulfill the deceased’s wishes. He even went beyond his duty, ensuring the beneficiaries made the best of their inheritances—like helping the brothers mend their relationship.
I also appreciated how Haie prioritized his team’s safety whenever danger arose—often due to Jidori (his biological father). His loyalty to his stepfather, whom he considered his true father, further deepened his admirable character. Despite Jidori’s status, Haie never sought his approval, reinforcing his integrity.
Haie’s revenge against Jidori was executed brilliantly—methodical, patient, and never rushed. The setbacks caused by Jidori added tension, making the payoff more satisfying.
The dynamic with the reporter was another great touch. Their initial rivalry, initiated through a false article resulting in the revoked attorney license from Haie and Haie’s disdain for him evolved into an uneasy alliance against Jidori, adding an interesting twist.
The trial in the final episode was compelling, though I wish it had been longer. A standout moment was Haie’s closing plea, delivered with his signature boldness and flair.
That said, the ending left me wanting more closure. How did the public perceive Jidori afterward? Did he regain his attorney’s license? Was there any reconciliation between him and Haie? Exploring these threads would have been rewarding.
Overall, the story was well-crafted and enjoyable.
