it's 2am and i've just finished the final episode...
all i can say is, wow. just. wow. this drama was just a breath of air from start to end. the plot was new and fresh, and they made law look so....interesting. i initially had my reservations about the casting, especially the two main leads because of their age difference but i was proven wrong. their chemistry was top-notch. although the drama didn't have as many typical romantic scenes as a korean drama should (i am a major sucker for that) the romance was still worth the watch. the drama had a really strong theme which carried on throughout the show i.e voices, and how every single person out there is important and worthy enough to be heard by someone.
drama had a 2-episode extension from 16 to 18. i usually hate extensions because there will be an irrelevant plot twist/draggy storyline and although i initially thought the extension storyline was redundant, i realised how important it was. i loved the ending, it was so clean and well organized (unlike NICE GUY sorry still bitter, wtf worst shit ever) all of the stories finally came together and were tied up into one neat little package worthy of an ending.
random qn: do you know what the worst feeling in the world is? it's not hate, or anger, or sadness. it's loneliness. not having anyone by your side, not having anyone who cares. i never thought i would've pitied such a grossly dehumanized satan spawn in the form of the drama's antagonist but towards the end i did, because everyone deserves to be listened to.....just goes to show how much i took away from this drama.
"don't waste your life hating someone, because even life itself is not long enough to love someone"
i really like dramas that make me ponder and think, long after the credits have rolled. rewatch value is at 6 because while it is a good drama, its not the rewatch-able kind of drama (because you already will know what will happen haha)
long story short, all i've got to say is that it's really, really worth the high ratings (7%). another daebak drama for lee jongsuk once again, i am really, really happy for him. he is a brilliant actor considering his young age and he will go very, very far :)
