Military Prosecutor Do Bae Man

First of all, each episode was like a separate movie, kept my interest for all 16 episodes which rarely happens! Even though there was some violence etc, there was always some comedic relief by some of the side characters. All actors were great, but especially Ahn Bo-hyun was perfect for this part!!

I hadn't seen Kim Woo-seok before but he was great in portraying the process of his character change and all the emotions it involved.

Korean Ensemble shows like this one are great when they're good. Even though the theme is different, it reminded me of other successful ensemble series like Diary Of A Prosecutor, Hyena, Good Manager, and many more I won't list right now, which are classics and all time favorites. And I'm glad I decided to give this one a try!

Just a note, even though I loved it I watched it at 1.25 speed, but I do that with most dramas. So if you find it a bit slow that's no reason to give up on it, just speed it up a bit!

Are you looking for a Korean drama with no romance and two military prosecutors fighting in court for justice? Well, you are in luck because the chemistry between Ah Bo Hyun and Jo Bo Ah was excellent. This drama never got boring, and the twists will keep you on edge. The OST is so good, too, as the music helps tell the plot flawlessly. You need to watch this!!

Even though this series came out in '22, it has an old-time charm to it. Good guys vs bad guys, some of them very bad. Underdog vs powerful, honest vs. Dishonest, etc. It's a military ensemble work and it's done well. Secondary-role actors are universally good. The writing is good, albeit, some of the characters' parts, such as the law office minions, are just over the top. One of its best elements is the male lead, played ably by Mr. Ahn Bo-hyun, an excellent but corrupt attorney who matures into and honest, brave and selfless advocate for those unable to defend themselves. This is the kind of positive message one regularly finds in Korean dramas of this ilk. The main antagonist is expertly played by Mr. Kim Young-min, who seems to have made a successful career out of being a despicable villian. It never gets old with Mr. Kim. Park Jin woo is hilarious in the role of supervising officer in the prosecutor's office. The female lead, played by the beautiful Ms. Bo Jo-ah, is perhaps the only weak element in the production. Her beauty makes her the object of desire for many male characters and her determined pursuit of justice is an inspiration for everyone. Her acting is adequate, However she exudes smug satisfaction as though she realizes her attractiveness to others is, well, justly deserved. The way her character demeans or quietly ridicules others can get bothersome at times. However, the viewer still hopes that the mostly suppressed attraction between her and "Doberman" eventually surfaces. This series doesn't deserve to ranked among "must-see" Korean productions, but it's a fun, mostly wholesome romp and will provide multiple evenings of enjoyable Korean tv.

Surprisingly, the main characters in this series didnt catch my attention, instead i am drawn to the supporting characters, they have more strong presence in the story, and the actors are better than the two leads.

The two main characters' are boring, kind of dumb and repetitive of so much korean drama. The storyline has a lot of inconsistencies and holes.

The woman lead (Jo Bo-Ah) is a total disappointment, the only facial expression she can have is to open her already big eyes into bigger eyes, showing a lot of whites which is kind of scary, . She NEEDS to polish her acting. The male leads if average, nothing spectacular, so average.

However, the supporting characters, Noh Hwa-Young, Noh Tae-Nam and Pyun Sang-Ho, these are brilliant characters that gave the story a strong background. Imagine without them, this series will be so boring.

The transition of Noh Tae-nam is heartwarming and inspirational, a child who didnt have the love of his mother and became a bully, is lonely and have only his dog as his family. His transition from being a weak, angry bully to realizing his wrongdoings, to finding his inner peace and eventually, forgive the mother who brings so much pain in his life is inspirational.

The actors who played the three characters are good, since their characters have more dimension, they must have the acting skills to portray different emotion and feelings at different stage/scene, yet they delivered. I would love to see more of Kim Woo-Seok and Kim Yo-Han.

Overall, it is not a bad show, thanks to the supporting cast.

Another great show from s/k shame we in uk seem to care more about reality tv these days-no decnt drama-were luck if we get 1hr awk but s/k continues to put rest to shame.
