Frustrating female lead has development stages
The female lead is unbelievably frustrating at first, but it's definitely a plot device, and I stuck with this show because I've been waiting a long time for it to be available in my area! I really like how the backgrounds of each main lead are slowly revealed so I could be very pleasantly surprised! This is one of those rare dramas that gets better as the show progresses.
I thought it might have just boring law cases, but each legal decision is part and parcel of the female lead's development stages, which I thought were very well done! I liked how she had to LEARN to have accurate perception and how each advance in her growth was contrasted with her past. I've never met a female lead that I detested at first, then grew in empathy with so I think the writer did a superlative job!
The male lead is to die for! This drama keeps a viewer guessing about which one she will choose, but I was rooting for "him" the whole time. When we got the slow revelation of his past, I was totally sold on him! This show is iconic in its featuring of two NICE GUYS for the male leads! I don't recall ever watching a show with two nice guys, and I mean really supportive, encouraging, ready to impart teaching, putting her interests and happiness first, knightly, gorgeous, magnetic, and kind!
There were no cold, uncaring leading men in sight, except for two-faced lying criminals, and that's to be expected. I thought this drama was remarkably brilliant in many jubilant ways! It didn't follow any mundane matter of course or common procedure. I could barely drag myself away to sleep at night!
If you want real kisses like in the good old days, this is it. You will even get to witness a young, baby-faced Lee Jong Suk!
