I purposely went to another legal drama with minimal romance. Witch at court. There. That has a hint at the last 2 minutes of that drama. Its still cringy.

So I like the interactions between 2 adults lawyers here. Can't people be colleagues instead of insisting that they must fall for each other. How uncomfortable must it be to be a single male if every female colleague must fall for you?

I thought the drama was about a cold hearted senior lawyer. Then a new intern came in and learnt to be a lawyer.

The end.

So we have a lot of cases during each episode. We saw the 2 of them. Plus colleagues. We see how she learns. He is shown as an efficient and effective lawyer.

There.

Any interactions to me are as is. Not a hint of future romance.

Geez. Call it a legal procedural drama then. We have enough Korean dramas without romance around. Netflix didn't have a romance tag right? Mydramalist has zero participation or financial support behind this series. They couldn't have told the writer/ producter to write in romance into the storyline.

Lol. Its fine. I like this show. I don't even have much to critique about this drama. People do strange things all the time. Its the only Korean show I am following at present because no others interest me. I hapoen to like LJW even though his real life persona has taken a beating. Powerful opponents happened to be one of the earliest Kdramas I've picked up so LJW and
Chae Rim have a soft spot in my heart. I am now going back to my real life. Yeah sorry; I have had to pick apart different legislature this week and answering what are the corporate rights and responsibilities. So this show was actually relaxing. Lol.

She didn't give him a choice or chance. That's not respecting the marriage. She can choose an abortion but you're advocating personal rights trumps communication with your partner on such an important decision.

He could have divorced her. However its with a full knowledge why he did. But its an even worse feeling knowing your wife chose to have an abortion and would have never told him.

Marriage is about trust.

This is a legal drama. I don't have to accept emotional reasoning as an argument to excuse her reason. I can accept it in any other drama. However in this case the new lawyer did not practice due diligence.

I also don't have the time to give you the exhaustive examples of which parts of the law the mother harmed her daughter by chosing the withold her daughter's limitations. I presume this extended to the school.

I was skipping through but the case is copyright infringementright case/violation right? So she has to pay compensation for it. The penalties include fines and imprisonment. So representating your child who is an adult is usually not binding. I mean you don't have the legal right as a parent to an adult unless they are deemed to not have the mental capacity to make decisions.

Gosh. I am not trying to not answer but I really don't have time. I unfortunately need to work with legal terms in real life. In my free time... well before the last several years I needed to know the Korean legal acts. Go read up on the copyright law. The website is very interesting. The Korean website is more informative than one thinks. The law clerk has to file each step they do and its all there.

If you want to know more and I mean properly not via Kdrama and random articles- the Korean court system has an English section where you can search cases and verdicts. I would say if he had won he would have won the copyright infringement case then sue her for defamation because his reputation as an artist was lowered. I am not sure personal apology is sufficient as she is an adult.

Now in these cases- would the Korean parent withold information and would she be liable for her daughter's debts? She would. And her daughter would need to be assessed. So if she can't be tried then the mother would be the one who is the next responsible person.

I hate rushed comments but tease out what I say; in the context that the writer of this drama is an attorney... why the punchline of her being intellectually disabled with the intelligence of a 13 year old? Its specific. So she must have been tested. This usually means its probably ASD 3 functional. She is legally liable for copying the painting. So then you are debating whether the mother would withold the truth or tell the truth to get a reduced sentence.

What would the mother do? I am not speculating on the author's mindset. I see a lot of protective parents. I rarely see parents who's been in denial for over 20 years especially when the police, medical and law systems are involved. I am not sure about the educational system.

I think in these sort of cases I cannot see any parent successfully attempting to hide mental incapacity.

🤣🤣🤣

The legal acts in Korea are different other countries. The personality liability issues would make the parent divulge the truth. Otherwise her adult daughter would be up for serious compensation amounts. This is a legal drama. She probably won't for everyday life but its a a different case here. You don't pray to win the suit. That's why its done pro bono isn't it? They won't be able to pay any monetary amount if they lose.

That's a plothole. No parents of any child with a disability would withold these sort of information expecially in such a lawsuit.

The₩100 000 is also such a rout. That's cheap for such a huge piece in a flea market. My local library has 2 display cabinets with artists work. It currently has several cards and postcard paintings of native Australia floral and fauna. Its being sold for $250 and more. Its pencil sketches and not watercolours.

Look. If you guys are going to judge whether a drama is good or not then you would need to discuss points in the episodes.

If you are talking about the main characters personal life. The cases. The workplace. The future...

Then I guess its not that bad. I mean there are comments and discussion vs whining. I see a lot more whining comments in those badly written drama.

So why the discontentment? I didn't have high hopes for this drama but its held my attention and others didn't. That's good enough for me for my weekend entertainment.

That new MD has played a lawyer before. She has always been a solid actress.

The client was intellectually disabled. That means she couldn't provide a rationale of her inspiration. I don't know if you call it unprepared since she didn't pick up on the fact. Her mother should have done full disclosure as well

Its not the age gap that is bothering me. I think its more unlikely that a law firm's partner will date an intern. Seriously.

I expect office flings. Happens all the time but people here expect marriage.

Lol. Class difference. The divorce and custody agreements are harsh and sides the male especially if there is a son. Kdramas are dramas but society and judgment is harsh. I am going back to real life at present as its early on a Sunday and I'm in no mood for Kdrama just yet. Too much to do this Sunday.

I haven't planned to finish ep 5. I was planning to watch both episodes tomorrow. Howevee I went to the scene because I was curious and you wanted to check the subs.

The subs are correct. I know when Netflix omits or alters stuff. There were no names thrown about. She didn't display any remnants of warm feelings like calling him oppa etc when they talked. So in that context- the subs are as what she said. She changed her mind and if he had stayed he would be the father. I mean " wow " anyone she was with will just provide the sperm. What is with the perfume though? Based on her speech she definitely came across as self centred. Everything is what she wants. People need to accomodate her.

Wow.

Er that is why dramas such as Boys over flowers exist. People keep their cancer diagnosis secret. People withold their parents cancer diagnosis from them. School reports or scores are important. Single parenting is not accepted. There are a lot of differences that are not just drama cliches.

I don't know man. Its hard to stay with a wife who had an abortion and never intended to tell you about it. Its up there with infidelity.

I was a bit shocked it was the reason for the break up.

She is 28 I think.

What cochlear implant as an option? It started to be used from 1978. She would have been born in 1997.

I don't think its because the parents were behind in the use of technology. Its more that both parents were legal elite and didn't want to ge seen with a child known to have inherited a congenital condition. Its the public persona. It still occurs now so it can't be outdated. Congenital diseases won't be welcomed when those having it meet the future in laws. Or spouses. Or be seen as desirable spouses.

I was more disgusted someone reviewed it as a completed drama.

I saw the preview when she says she still wants to keep the relationship a secret until she graduates. That's kind of lame by the way. He's only a PhD graduate. I know so many peoole these days with PhDs. Its not as rare now. Her excuse is really lame too. There is nothing wrong with dating when you're in Uni. Its not as if she is dating anyone that famous.

I will start if drama is good. Its just that I have been reading articles for years about the ML however had no chance to watch his dramas. Or rather the plots didn't interest me.

Thanks. It makes more sense

Nah. I am going to watch and be surprised. I just want good writing and a cast which can act.
