One of the Best Legal Dramas in 2025!!
Jung Kyung Ho really seems to be settled in, portraying characters from the legal field!
This was my second time watching him in a legal drama after “Oh My Ghost Clients” and I really loved watching him spout legal expertise in both shows. Of course, both shows portray him with an antagonistic vibe and a redemption arc. Although I’m a huge fan of Jung Kyung Ho, I went into the show with zero expectations. It was mainly because I had never heard of pro-bono lawyers. In short, they are lawyers who represent low-income class victims with low or, in most cases, zero fees. I’m not sure if it happens in most Asian countries, because the legal field never offers anything for free. It is as cutthroat as other fields. So, watching this show was like a fresh breath of air. I have lost count of the number of times, I cried whenever any of the team members made a convincing overture to prove their client’s point in court; impoverished victims looking for someone to represent them and seek justice. The entire legal team in this show gels well; they do have their disagreements initially, especially Kang David who isn’t impressed with joining a pro bono team that makes no money. But slowly they evolve together, he begins to train them to win cases, albeit using his time & tested tricks. They learn to respect him, despite the shady choices he makes at times, because David’s heart is at the right place.
