A Powerful Legal Drama Rooted in Pain, Justice, and Unspoken Truths
Disclaimer: This drama is intense and emotionally heavy—definitely not for the faint-hearted. It deeply explores the aftermath of trauma, particularly sexual abuse and torture, and how survivors and their loved ones cope with its lasting impact.
The story revolves around a daughter who uncovers the horrifying truth about her mother’s past abuse. Processing this revelation is deeply unsettling and heartbreaking, especially as she recalls her mother always being cheerful, never revealing the pain she had endured. The drama shifts into a gripping legal thriller as the daughter, played with fierce determination by Jung Ryeo-won, pursues justice and takes on a powerful political figure responsible for her mother's suffering.
Though romance takes a backseat, the narrative delivers a strong sense of purpose—of seeking justice, uncovering truth, and reclaiming strength. Hyun In-yoon shines as the male lead, particularly in his element with legal roles.
It’s a powerful and compelling watch, but be prepared for its emotionally challenging subject matter. Recommended only if you’re comfortable with dramas dealing with sexual crimes and the pursuit of justice.
