Solid

Divorce Attorney Shin is a solid drama that has some great performances from all cast members, great characters, some surprising minor twists to the main story, and addictive OST. I can always tell when a drama is enjoyable when the episodes of 1 hour feel more like 15-20 minutes. The story got me hooked in, and I also liked the majority of the 'side stories'. I also really liked the bromance here especially, and the rivalry between the ML and the villainess.

There are a few things I weren't too keen on. The main thing was a personal pet peeve that most probably didn't catch. But I didn't like the way the children spoke, i.e. they spoke like the adults. I know kids can be smart etc. but the words that came out of their mouth were sometimes so over-philosophical or logical that it took the immersion out temporarily and made me think 'What did he just say? How does he know such a word?'. The other thing I wasn't to keen on was one of the story arcs for one of the female characters, although this didn't hamper my enjoyment too much in the end.

I also wanted to note I was a big fan of the direction. The director knows their craft well. It's a very rare occasion for me to praise directing so well but honestly I think I could probably put this drama as the best directed.

All in all, I do recommend this. My review does look like it should be higher than an 8.5/10. However, despite it's greatness, personally, I didn't get as emotionally attached as I do, otherwise I guess this would have been a 10/10 for me. However, this can easily be a 10/10 for you! So what are you waiting for? Go and watch this!
