The most emotional court drama I've ever seen ,, injustices can be fought with high moral values

I though at first that this drama is just procedural court or detective drama similar to many dramas of the same genera that I've watched before
My thoughts were way off ,,, it's different
The heart breaking stories of the people wrongfully imprisoned had me bawling ,, I cried a lot
the two main leads were loud and sometimes silly to be honest but they had good hearts and good judgment when it comes to people's who are wronged and got punished for crimes they didn't commit ,, also it strikes them close as it reminds them always of their own families and their own struggles in life that's really relatable
I was so sad of How cruel this world is towards the weak and the unprivileged people
they are discarded and treated awfully because of their mentally challenged conditions or because they are poor or both
the first case was so emotional and so heartbreaking ,, I felt infuriated and wanted justice for the three young men badly
the other cases were also emotional but not the same as the first one ,,, the story dragged a bit with the second case but got resolved beautifully too
I loved the human connections ,, the script was amazing and the characters were played right
the humor was okey but wasn't my favorite ,, all I can say it was a try to lift the intensity a bit of the drama
all the dramas elements were great,, it's really enjoyable to watch and engaging
very optimistic idealistic drama
of course it's not realistic enough because in real world there isn't enough justice or the people who are wronged get their apology from the people who wronged them
I Recommend this drama so much for people who likes emotional stories and moral messages behind it

A side note

the actor who got replaced was great in his role but of course the drama was too good to get cancelled because of his real life wrong doing ,, the message they were trying to send would be ruined so it was the right decision they resumed the drama in the last four episodes with another actor who tried so hard to imitate the actor who got replaced
but unfortunately that was the wrong call
he couldn't replace him ,, and his character seemed separate from the other one got me disappointed and didn't enjoy the last four episodes
I thought they should have killed the other one on script or made him travel or something and introduce a new character with his own style to replace him in the story

Best romantic drama between a teacher and student really respectful and classy loved it

I will tell you what I loved about this drama
It's peacefulness ,,, even if it had war scenes ,,, it wasn't focused on war or fighting ,,, it's focused on the beautiful yet subtle love story and the bond between the characters was the best
this drama isn't loud ,, it doesn't have annoying characters even the evil ones have their reasons ,, sometimes at first I felt sympathy for the evil guy who destroyed everything later on
I loved the bond between the characters,, their family bond without even being an actual family ,, the classiness between a teacher and his student who he loved later on ,, there were no over the top romance scenes not even one kiss or over the top noisy female lead who keep annoying the male lead to love her ,, the male lead wasn't cold and arogenate , he was soft and gentle yet wise and smart strong man with a very amazing charisma and you just fall in love with him
their relationship seemed so smooth so subtle so beautiful ,, it was really emotional for me
I felt all sorts of emotions ,, I'm not a romance drama fan and I think this one was one of the best I've ever seen
Never one boring moment or draggy dialogues or even draggy scenes ,,, every episode has it's own fast pace
I felt so sad at the final three episodes that I stopped watching to take a breather not to fall into deep depression state
I went to watch a funny variety show of the male lead just to watch him happy laughing and playing and really it broke my anxiety from the last three episodes ,, they were heavily sad
I know of course it's a drama but it was very well made that you feel what they feel exactly like them
I recommend it so much to anyone who likes to watch Mature Romance with subtle love story ,, it's like a beautiful poem
I wished the ending was better but don't let it discourage you ,, they made a second season in modern era for them to complete their story in much more happier louder way

Underrated Bromance drama full of witty cases and twists

At first episodes I was a bit bored and felt they dragged solving the first two cases then after episode 7
the bromance started strong between the two male lead ,, their brotherhood was amazing
I loved the second male lead more than the first
he's so naive and simple yet he has a big heart ,, very loyal and caring to his friend never put himself first
always running to protect his friend no matter what
their friendship started fast and out of no where but when it started it became a strong force that saved lives and solved cases while staying safe and protected from the people that tried so hard to kill the detective
I loved the Whump of the first male lead ,, falling sick most of the time , being week most of the time despite his intelligence he felt short in martial arts and his friend completed him in that matter ,, never failed to protect him
The story didn't need the female assassin who loved the detective ,, the story would have been perfect without her ,, yes she saved him sometimes ,,helped him sometimes but that's it ,,, her character didn't add much ,his friend did what she did most of the time .. she was there so the bromance can't be turned into BL love that's it
The drama had lots of funny scenes made me laugh so hard especially from the second male lead ,, he was so funny and had lots of funny reactions with his broad body and handsome face ,, yes I loved him
I felt sad for the first male lead at the final episodes ,, he was falling sick a lot and all around him wanted to save him
all that threw me off the enormous twist at the final scenes of the final episode
What ?? How ?? all that and he was what ??
really really exciting twist that changes everything
I recommend this drama so much ,, it's so good and thrilling in every way

Miserable and complicated psycho drama

I actually lowered my rating for this drama after I've completed it from 9 to 7.5
It started really strong ,, really good and so complicated as it moved along the episodes
it became layered of complications and confusions ,, my head hurt every time I wanted to figure out what's going on to the point I didn't care anymore
I'm the kind of person that when things gets really difficult and really annoying to understand I just let it go and go with the flow but the ride in this one was so rough ,, bumpy ride .
I reached episode 10 and I was praying for it to end ,, just put us of our misery and end this complicated puzzle with all it's flashbacks and all the pain from the live victims and the new killings
the most painful death for me was the doctor that lived a miserable life and died wrongful death while trying to save a child , became enemy no1 in the whole country then after his death his baby even suffered to the end .. A baby abuse
this drama was so miserable , so complicated , so violent that it caused me depression state
I want it to end badly and I felt sorry for the actors playing such complex miserable characters
it was A grade drama but really not my taste at all
that's why I lowered my rating ,, I didn't enjoy it ,, I felt sick through it and because of it
I don't recommend it to any one just the people who needs a very sad detective drama

Amazing detective drama with supernatural aspect

If you love Supernatural dramas but with a detective touch here it is
the drama is all about un resting spirits in real estates
they hunt places and our leads capture the ghosts and send them away clearing the real estates from the unrested spirits
then sell these places so it's a win win ... logical that the main leads are still humans need actual paid work not just hunting ghosts
What I loved about this drama that it has amazing leads ,, Both of the actors are really stunning visually and acting wise
the male lead is so charismatic and charming ,,,, it's story is very thrilling with every week there is a new case to solve ,, spirit to rest
Also the main leads have their own spirits related case ,, their personal unsolved problem that they try so hard to solve with gritty emotions and unique entanglement
their bond seemed romantic in so many episodes but they never acted on it or said to each other that they love each other or care about each other they did care in their own way but still no love scenes in any way
Over all I love this drama so much ,, it was so much fun and exciting one
also I recommend it to anyone because it really worth your time

Funny But really stupid non logical Bromance drama

I watched it for the Bromance but I found it really silly , not coherent or logical but still it had it's funny scenes that made me laugh a lot
It wasn't comedy but it had it's really funny scenes
the story was a mess ,, You can't even follow who wants to kill whom or why ?
Killing people in this drama is just ridiculous ,, there was one scene were the male lead killed two soldiers just because he wanted his friend to eat his meal
The insane second main lead was crazy with no conscious or cell of brain in his head
they started portraying the first main lead as the smartest person but him staying with this idiot wasn't smart at all
he didn't even avenge his family or did anything for that matter
I don't know if this drama was just for Bromance sake only or what
I didn't see them real friends but rarely
How can a friend whip his friend or take his enemy as his ally just because he was angry at him ?
It was really abusive relationship
even the one he married he took her by force ,, she doesn't love her
for one I feel sorry for the female character here
I don't recommend this drama to anyone
waste of time
may be for a laugh only with some bromance you can watch it

Didn't reach my expectations

I started watching this drama for the male lead Leo Wu ,, I've watched his recent dramas Cross fire and Tomb of the sea ,, they were the best acting and story but here He was younger yet very professional and really amazing for his young age among a lot of older professional actors among them Xiao Zhan who just appeared for some episodes small screen time
The drama started so good ,,,I was captivated by it's start really strong and really fast based but from the middle the story was just stretched a lot with so many ways to get the hero his utmost power
it became draggy and boring for about twenty episodes till episode 41 things started to move along quickly and the final epic battel came to happen and it didn't disappoint ,, enduring 20 filler episodes for just the last five episode
The female presence was strong but why all the females love only the male lead ,, the other actors were just extras didn't even have their chance to tell their stories in the fillers
Overall it wasn't that bad but also not that good in my opinion ,, If you want to watch it for the male lead you will enjoy it if not you won't enjoy it so much

Chaotic , irritating and messy piece of shit of story , don't waste your time

I am saving you from a real headache watching this piece of shit of a drama
they used the thriller aspect at the beginning to make it exciting then failed horribly
after that, some of the story was revealed and we went down a rabbit hole of stupid revenge from all the characters
then people die for some Ludacris reasons then the female lead was trying to get better with some good support
but still, the evil people are winning until episode 14
There are a lot of plot holes in each episode,, it's like something happening without logical explanation from sane people but the writer just overlooked it
the evil people are still winning and we are watching this mess
the police are useless, the female lead is useless, and the support is useless
this drama is garbage
I've tried and tried to think positively every weak but the writer is just a nonwriter, he or she is just writing to fill gaps
I wonder why this great actress accepted such a mess

Started Charming and magical then dragged the second half of it to boredom

Pressure on high school students especially the legacies ruins their lives also the poor kids who can't afford proper education nor proper stable life suffers from injustices all the time
that's what this drama about to sums it up
The acting was great and the first four episodes were good ,, the musical part wasn't that astonishing ,,it was fine for a first time musical drama but I think they lost interest in singing midway though the drama ,, they filled the episodes from four to six with lots of filler scenes
The story was predictable ,, the only mysterious element was the male lead ,, the magician who we didn't see actual magical tricks from him for the most part ,, it was like magic by suggestion only
he mesmerized the two teenagers into his profession that's it
I thought we would see actual magic shows or some sort of circus like show but no no ,, the plot was all about the pain of the two high schoolers most of the time and that was boring to be honest because it's in every korean drama that involves high school students
So the magical part was lacking ,, the core story was ordinary then the only mysterious character was suspicious to the last episode
His back story was obvious related to them somehow similar to them that wasn't shocking ,, I thought he had some tragedy not teenage life crises changed his course of life
Overall the drama was a bit disappointing ,, I had high hopes than this
the criminal case of it was like a filler for the plot ,, wasn't that relevant
if you love the actors you will love the drama ,, if you're biased ,, you will think logically about it

plot that failed horribly just after a good start

It started with very good two episodes or so that's it then it became just normal crush from a teenage kid with sad past and good teacher that helped him overcome his grief then it became an obsession from the student towards the teacher then it backfired on them both ,, the teacher didn't do anything wrong , may be she overlooked the obsession that the kid developed towards her because she liked his mathematical brain ,,, then the drama suddenly jumped four years into future and the kid became adult so now he's allowed to love his teacher ,, he couldn't find her so he became a teacher himself to avenge her from the people that wronged her , ,,, of course that's not smart at all from math Genius then he find his teacher is doing the same but from far hahaha then he started chasing her again ,, they went round and round each other with no affair or love scenes or any actual romance it became dull and very boring turned into revenge plot that is failing too
By the way ,, the first few episodes they tried to make math fun and enjoyable to learn but the writer lost his IQ on the way didn't mention math or did any smart moves after that hahaha
so after 13 episodes all we got is a very annoying characters who are very bad towards each other and two main leads who are lost and trying to get back at the bad people but failing miserably that's it
You won't get anything from this drama but what i've said above
good luck

Failed Rom-Com fluffy summer drama

Zhang Han is the writer , producer and the main lead but he failed miserably at least at writing this drama
The drama promoted itself as Four Gentlemen and their growth in life ,,, where is exactly the growth in this ?
The four dudes are all grown up supposedly in their forties living their best lives ,, they have good jobs living with each other in the same High rise compound witch is a billion dollar unit or so .. very high tech ,, smart house and so on
they don't have wives nor girlfriends ,, they are bachelors playing around but the male lead has a kid from somewhere ,, they didn't mention ,, the kid's mother ever or even tell her story or if she's dead or alive and they stated he didn't get married
so the story is super Cliché with extra superficial approach on dating women
and the women in the story are very obnoxious ,,, the male lead's love interest is his boss ,, she bosses him around and he's a jerk to her and that's how their love suddenly happen ... there is no gentlemen attitude at all in this
the other three friends love interest are as useless as the female lead
the most irritating one is the businesswoman who asked one of the fourth guys to marry her and she made him sign alot of contracts to be her boy toy and he agreed ,,, this was the most horrible thing ever and his friends told him to go for it
really??!!! they didn't advice him against loveless marriage and they were okey about their bestfriend marrying for money
Isn't there one mature grown up of those four dudes ?? I struggled to make excuses for this drama as I love Zhang Han as an actor but he's a horrible writer may be good producer ,, the production quality is very good but the plot is flat out painful to watch
The only positive thing about the whole drama is the male friendship between the four guys nothing more
Don't waste your time watching this ridiculous drama but if you really like light fluffy drama to pass time then go for it

Real life family with real life problems you can relate to

I don't know why I started watching this drama but I'm glad I did
this drama is so real that you can relate to within your own family ,, I have similar characters
the family problems are really similar to anyone's problems ,, having a new member to the family not accepting her ,, trying to adjust to her becoming on of the family yet she has her own problems ,, she has a teenage kid who is alone . weak and get beaten by his drunk father frequently ,,, the poor kid broke my heart and made me attached to the drama
I feel sometimes I want to scream at the screen watching him practically being tortured by his parents
also There is a bright side that is the husband he's a great person ,,he's so kind and caring towards his new wife , his kids , his mother and his wife's kid ,,, he's so gentleman really understands the problems he's facing and dealing with them with big heart
he's the bright light of this drama ,.,, him and his teenage son also such a sunshine cheerful kid
he's the opposite character of the abused boy ,,, he's so energetic naughty sometimes but in a childish way
I love his brightness too and his attempts of friendship with the poor kid
so overall the drama has great balance between melodrama , sadness and happiness ,,, it's not too dramatic or too funny
it's similar to real life day by day life but it's not boring also or draggy ,, it has an amazing pace
I didn't get bored one second ,, every character has his own issues that is dealt with
there is no draggy dialogues or boring romance
this drama shocks you to reality sometimes when you just begin to dream but then it's ok to live life as it is with all it's hardship and fight your own battles
such an amazing mature drama ,, Highly recommend it

Romance doesn't fit this revenge story at all

I'm at the half of the drama ,, watched eight episodes only and I'm dropping it now because it frustrated me so much
The start was epic and the Revenge story is very good well played with all it's twists and melodrama but the romance is immature and so cringy
it's not that she's older than him ,, it's how his character was written ,, he's too soft for her personality ,, too naive and she's entangled in a very dangerous web of revenge plans ,, she made preparations for years to get back at the people who hurt her but she's suddenly falling in love while being haunted on her revenge war and it's literally war for her ,, yes she's a woman she needs someone by her side to make her feel like a woman again and to be loved ,, she deserves that but not that student kid who is too naive ,, doesn't know anything about her past life and forced himself into her serious affairs ,,,, talking to her softly ,, taking care of her after she witnesses violence , suicide , explosions and imprisonment ? she needs proper smart man at the same level of her intelligence and same level of seriousness of those people ,,may be a lawyer partner , or her enemy's son but older version of him not another student ,, I don't feel the male lead is compatible with her with the personality the writer wrote him to be
either she Quit her revenge schemes to live and love so she can keep her love safe or she continue her plans but not to get punch of students in her mess with a very dangerous man who kills people that easily
Okey I ranted a lot about my frustrations from the drama
anyhow it's not bad drama but it's not all good either

I waited two years for this but it was boring to me

I love Xiao Zhan's handsomeness ,, love his voice and love his acting that won't change no matter how much worse his fans treated me
that said and also like the female lead as an actress watched her psychiatrist drama she was amazing ,, really strong independent woman there
Here in this drama ,,it was fun watch at first few episodes then it became predictable and draggy as most fluffy romantic drama
I don't like fluffy romance ,, Don't like female lead acting like an idiot in front of the male lead
don't like the feeling of the male lead acting like he's superior to her with his education and intelligence
so my problem is with how the character were written not with the actor or the actress or how they act
I like them as actors but I don't like the plot
I think there isn't any thing wrong about that
It's not for me and I dropped it
I wrote this review for closure after the horrible things said to me in the comment section
I won't come back here again but that promise won't be for any upcoming drama of xiao zhan's

Interesting twist of actual history and good bromance but dragged should have been shorter

Started watching it three months ago and I was really interested and enjoyed it a lot at the beginning ,, it has very strong interesting start and a wonderful brotherhood or Bromance then it started to drag on for a long time so i stopped and watched other dramas then return to it dragged again stopped it then again ,, what kept me going back to it not dropping it is the plot and the actors ,, I was so invested to know what will happen or how it will happen and the characters were in depth all of them
were evolving and deceiving... Sima Yi is the most important brilliant character of them all
loved his complicated character and his love for his younger adopted brother the king
he literally put himself a lot in danger for his brother till the end
I knew that he was in real life the enemy of the real king and wasn't his brother at all but that what the writer imagined him to be ,, their communication with each other similar to actual brothers
The romantic stories were good and not forced also the female leads were amazing ,, every one of the cast did his job brilliantly
>>>>>>
what I didn't like about this drama is how long , slow and draggy it got and I kept skipping for the story to move a long
they dragged it to death LOL from episode 25 to 45 ,, about twenty episodes of slow and filler episodes
but I stick with it for three months and just finished it now
this is a good drama but needs patience and love for the actors
