This drama has squeezed my heart out of shape. It shocked, horrified, stunned and melted my heart by turn. It was heart-wrenching at times and shocking at other times. It is meant to show a dystopian Korea of the future but succeeds in showing the actual reality in many countries. The nexus between politics, judiciary and industry is exposed in all its rawness. The protagonist of the drama metes out justice in his own way but it is not always commendable. Sometimes you feel your heart stop at the methods he employs but you never doubt that he is on the side of justice.....wild justice, you could call it.
The acting is beyond perfect. Watching Ji Sung play the role of Judge Kang Yo Han, I had my heart in my throat most of the time. This actor gets better as the years go by and he always chooses to play unusual and powerful roles. After watching him, you cannot imagine anyone else in this role. The other actors do not disappoint either. But I would specially like to mention the one who played the President. He was such a repugnant character and his rabble rousing tactics were so reminiscent of certain politicians in history and at present.
The music enhanced the play and I would encourage anyone who enjoys a serious issue-based story, to watch this one.
