Very touching and emotional legal drama

I feel this drama is definitely worth watching. The cases in family court really make the judges gasp, they're emotionally draining, and we, the viewers, are drawn into the dynamic.

There are Instagram celebrities who exploit their children, others get divorced because of different hotpot preferences, other case their husbands get them divorced because of plastic surgery, another one fight over caring for sick parents because father have a lot of money, other case children who have been sent to high schools don't want to repay their fathers, and when it comes to divorce, fight over child custody and division of marital property-this is very common in our country.

Here, Jun plays a young judge who has just been transferred from the criminal division to this family court. So, his demeanor is cold and firm with the law. His emotion and empathy are lacking. He often skips the three mediation sessions required before deciding a case, believing the cases he handles don't need mediation; he simply issues a decision. However, his decisions are generally well-received by his clients. There are minimal complaints. Only his superiors complain because they don't comply with regulations.

Renmin is a lawyer whose office is located in front of a court. Her clients are also quite extraordinary. Because her law firm isn't well-known, many clients are quick to push her to handle their cases. However, she's very straightforward when defending her clients and is well-educated, unlike those of a small-time lawyer.

The judge and the lawyer often meet during their cases, and because their offices are also located in front of the court, they often meet. However, due to the code of ethics, judges and lawyers are prohibited from meeting outside of court, this hinders their romance. They often misunderstand each other's way of thinking and the strict rules. But this is what makes it even more enjoyable to watch, as I'm curious about where they and the director will take us.

Anyway, if you're interested in watching this drama, I'd say go ahead. Besides enhancing our legal knowledge, this drama is also interestingly packaged, with light comedy, emotion, and empathy. It doesn't just focus on the law, which some people find boring. I can't wait for the next episode because they're so good at discussing each case. Even though Jun isn't the lead, I still recommend this drama.

Additional score: In its 3 days on CCTV-1 (China's number 1 national television station), this drama's ratings surpassed other dramas by over 3.00.

Go watch it...
