The Law Cafe

I very much enjoyed The Law Cafe - the leads had great chemistry and the story was interesting and engaging. That being said, it was littered with cliches and should very much have been labelled/categorized as a melodrama. I was not expecting so many predictable and overly used plot devices, so that definitely affected my rating. These cliches made the story feel at times overly dramatic and sometimes even ridiculous. Although I was certainly never bored.

The acting was good all around, but I have to say the absolute stand out performance for me was the wildly entertaining, entirely insane character played by Jo Han-Chul. He completely stole every scene he was in, and at least half of my enjoyment came from watching him acting like a total lunatic.

Overall I enjoyed this, but probably wouldn't recommend it. Both the leads have been in much better dramas, and seeing them in those would be time better spent.

Plot is one of the weakest I have seen lately.

Quite cliché revenge kdrama flooded with romance and some comedy.

I think the cast is way too good for this series to be fair. I was expecting a lot more and I was pretty much disappointed.

Every storyline is quite interesting individually but they never developed them enough and were resolved in 1 or 2 episodes, which is fine but then the big main plot never got to its climax and it was just weak and poorly written, honestly the villain here is supposed to be bad but was portrayed more like a joke or a satire, I never understood why.

I loved the female lead character because she was strong, steadfast and independent but at the same time there's way too many cliches with her too and you can predict everything she ( or any of the rest of the characters) will do.

The chemistry between the leads is good though and there's many steamy scenes that you don't usually see in kdramas.

I'd say, watch it if you have nothing else to watch and want something simple and lighthearted.

Lee Seung Gi plays Jungho character flawlessly alongside with Lee Se Young who also amazingly presents Yuri character as a persistent yet caring person lawyer is the spotlight. The stories told per episode are something that we can see in our everyday life. So, watching it may like that you see your daily life. Also, we can learn several moral values through the episodes. Some issues like bullying at school and apartment residents clash with the construction company are portrait in it. Love story is also the main plotline, which go back and forth from the high school and college of Jungho and Yuri. They will surely reunite as a couple again, for sure. The supporting roles also play crucial part, especially to enhance the comedy scene. It is a rom-com drama after all. Feel the joy watching it, so worthy!

Updated my review to a 10 after the final episode. Lee Seung-gi is cast perfectly to play the really cute intelligent male lead lawyer used to be a prosecutor under his dad. When he re-unites with his first love, who is also a lawyer, you know there will be a romance coming. Problem is, just when it starts heating up, he always runs off or rebuffs her advances because he is holding back something from her which is the theme of the whole series in the beginning - what is he holding back? Why did he quit his job? Why can't he tell her? What is it that he has to fix? It all gets revealed as romance blossoms, violence episodes with villains happen, mystery happens, more than one love interest, love doubts take hold. Loved the complete ending - leaves nothing to double about any of the characters and so love that. I liked the chemistry between Lee Seung-gi and the FLA which is rare for me so that says alot.

TOO MUCH ROMANTIC THAT it will feel like CRINGE.

This drama was started very well, and if someone like comedy romance then it is good.

And if i talk about character, their acting is so good to watch. I know the lead male character is popular enough to be in a good drama, i saw his more drama. But i never saw this Female main character. She is super cute with hotness. Most of the time enjoyed this drama just by watching her, her smile, face expression was too adorable.

Now come to the drama story line, there was not a logical story to feel you attractive or make you to feel "what will be the next" in story. They just forcefully took a irrelevant story, and pushed the whole drama by highlighting it. So if you thinking there will be a interesting story with romance, than forget it.

Story was about a lawyer(lead actress) and a former prosecutor(lead actor). Lead actress loss his dad in middle school time,by a accident made by lead actor family's company. But they studied together and after so many year they meet again and fall for each other.

Though their relationship was too good to watch, but story was too boring to watch also. I still don't know what was the story wanted to mean. And their romance was too bold that, sometimes it feel like this drama is entering into "blue flim". Whenever they are intimating their dialogue was too annoying to hear( you will hear this type of dialogue in pr**n video).

So if you are searching for too simple, heart fluttering drama then this is good.
