Motion for dismissal on grounds of little interest present.

This was not a good roller-coaster ride for me. The first episode started off well, but led to a second episode that was a chore to watch. It then glided into Episode 3 through 5 which was a boring donut with a few sprinkles of interest. Although episode 5 ended with a crumb of curiosity, it’s a case of too little too late for me. Everything about this series (vague story concept, romantic storyline, the other multiple storylines, court cases, and characters) lacked interest. When a script is lacking, I usually can find a few characters to help keep me engaged. Unfortunately, not here. The characters were ok, but the script didn’t give me enough to keep me invested in their storylines. I like many of the actors in this and thought the entire cast did a decent job. However, they even seemed bored with the script at times.

Random Note:

The few interesting parts was the mysteries firm merger and the character Kim Hyeong Min.

I actually started watching episode 6 but got so bored within the first 12 minutes that my brain checked out.

The house used in the second episode (time marker 35:58) is the same house used in the series “Cherry Blossoms After Winter” (Seo Hae Bom and Cho Tae Seong’s house).

For a change, the synopsis on Viki is more accurate than the one on MDL.
