Although the start was pretty good and the characters interesting, the drama got boring. They lacked the spark to keep everything interesting. Plus, the romance was corky which didn't help. Though, the characters were original, real and realistic. The performances were really good from all actors and actresses in the cast. Some of the side stories were interesting for a while as well. However, they had just too many stories to follow and they keep them entertaining for long.
So, overall, five out of ten.

Actually, the two main characters were the heart and soul of the whole drama. Especially the leading lady, who, more often than not, dominated her scenes and overshadowed her partner. However, she did got a bit endearing after a while. The subtle romance with the male lead was messy and probably should have been avoided, as they have better chemistry as partners rather than lovers. The theme about lawyers representing the elite was kind of refreshing, as most legal dramas tend to go for the more emotional, underdog stories. However, soon it was obvious that the cases were more about one family in particular rather than a series of cases. And it got a bit boring too.
So, overall, six and a half out of ten.

Good Enough
" It's okay to not be okay " is a conceptional drama. It nailed the atmosphere and the whole gothic, fairytale, mysterious, dark and eerie. The addition of the books worked fantastically, the setting was brilliant and the clothes of the leading lady influential.The story, however, of the drama was stretched. Looking back into it, nothing happened for some episodes, and the final result was the kind of 'easy' conclusion of the whole mother mystery. The side stories were underdeveloped and boring too. So, no, they didn't work on the story too much, as they focused on the clever dialogue and the atmosphere.
Nevertheless, even though storywise my rating would have been 5.5, I can't really rate it less than 7 because of the performances. The three main actors were breathtaking, especially in the dramatic scenes and one should only watch it for those performances only! (and no, I'm not a fan of the actors, but I can't stress enough how excellent they were! plz give them an award!!)
So, overall, seven out of ten (10/10 for the actors, 5/10 for the story)

In addition to the story and the well execution of it, the performances were really good. Especially from the girl, who was amazing. She played the coma state perfectly without overdoing it and she also potrayed her rehabilitation process really well.

The drama was cute and they handled the mystery well. The romance was really good too, especially since the couple had strong chemistry. The side characters were interesting too and they formed dynamic friendships with one another.
One thing that was a bit of a let down was the leading lady, who was a bit annoying at some times, especially when she was acting cute. Other than that, the pace was just right and they didn't introduce the romance strainght up, which was really clever. The love triangle was well made too. Plus, the drama and the mystery of the webtoon world were just great. Finally, the performances were really good and the ending was decent.
So, overall, nine out of ten.

Not Good Enough
Korean Drama " Bad Prosecutor " threw reality out the window in exchange for comedy, but failed to deliver any laughter.First of all, if you are a fan of Doh Kyung Soo you won't be disappointed. He does a great job with his performance and he is energetic and fun to watch. The rest of the cast, especially the leading lady, also did a great job with their characters and their performances were flawless. The chemistry was overflowing between them as well.
On the other hand, the rest of the drama was a huge disappointment. The story is basic corruption in the mists of those in power, with very few surprises. However, the ways the main character tried to bring them to justice were unrealistic and over the top, not to mention criminal, even though he is never punished for his actions. Thus, the twists got unbelievable as well.
Next up is the soundtrack. Not that the songs weren't good, but they were added in scenes that didn't fit their vibe.
Finally, the comedy aspect was weak, as the scenes were made overexaggerating which resulted into them being idiotic not funny.
So, overall, 3 out of 10.

The big twist in the begining was pretty good and it kept things interesting until everyone could figure out what had happened. However, the drama started getting boring after a while. The romance, especially the love triangle, was just predictable and it didn't have the intensity to make it great. The couple didn't have chemistry as well. The drama, in addition, stopped showing cases for the flower crew to pick up and they mainly focused on the making of the main character into a lady. Plus, the leading lady's character was annoying from time to time.
So, overall, five out of ten.
