showcasing the people behind justice not being served :)

Hyena was a show that showed the other side of justice, the bad side of laws and how corrupt everything can be. The disregard for justice and how lawyers clean up behind rich kids was so hard for me to digest. This side is something I haven't seen a lot in tv shows and its both a pro and a con tbh! It was certainly an amusing watch from that point of view but made me uncomfortable the whole time due to the decisions each person was making. but id say the show wrapped up showing the consequence of bad decision so overall I'm satisfied.
The actors did a good job, and the music was very apt for each scene! Many people either hate or love the female lead, but for me, she was just alright. Some of her actions were truly badass, and some were just super weak. The romance was truly unnecessary, and I do not like how they executed it at all! In the first few episodes, her scamming the guy was literally too much!! And the fact that hee jae never got over her no matter what the female lead said is kinda crazy to me.
I did like most characters on the show all gray and all doing selfish things. the cases and events in the drama was also quite enjoyable- though a little unrealistic. id say some slight adjustments on the romance and a little bit more justice fighting could have made this a 10 for me!
overall a decent watch that shows the corrupt side of the law world- be cautious if you love the justice to be served and people fighting for justice all the time- this is not for you! but id watch it for the dapper suits on ju ji hoon and some strong representation of women on screen :)
