Although I find the pacing of this show a bit on the slower side, there's an understated lyricism in the way the various story threads are woven together. This show is focused more on thematic development rather than on some more dramatic character or plot moments (at least so far).
From Ep 1, Kang Hyo Min states that people ultimately turn to the law when they've been hurt to the point (or lost something such as happiness) where they feel they have no where else to go. Each case highlights this in a different way. Simultaneously, we get insights into our main cast - their past, their struggles, and their growth (and it's related in some way thematically to the cases per episode). It's not easy to write in this way, and some episodes are definitely more successful than others at it, but I'm really enjoying this so far. At the very least, it's been a nice workplace type drama - not overly focused on romance and also not overly bogged down by being a procedural drama.
But I agree with some comments below, in this second half, we need some conflict, some build up to a climax, so I'm wondering what that would look like.
I'm only ep 2, but what am I watching LOL? It's like a superhero show mixed with ancient China. That sounds crazy, but it's actually entertaining so far.
No we couldn’t see her do that because that would make us happy and apparently we can’t have that for the…
LOL. Honestly, after all she goes through, it would be a meaningful ending for her to be seen with all her great-grandchildren (or something of the like). But whatever.
