    Are you guys serious?

    I couldn't even finish the first episode of this horrible series. It's so childish, pretentious and over-the-top pretentious. The overacting by all the characters, especially those male actors were just disgusting, they looked and acted more feminine than the real women. The weird hairdo of the Korean young guys or even older men, with ugly hairs covering their foreheads is such a disgusting trendy hairstyle popularized by the K movies and dramas. The formulaic twisted and zigzag way of talking by the males also make them feel more like females. Then the poorly scripted dialog, making her look at the camera, delivering a narrative monologue again and again was another formulaic acting cliche that we often see in the K drama series or movies other than talking to themselves to let viewers know what's going on in their brain; their thoughts got to be exposed through their mouths. I really don't know how all of these viewers gave this moronic, pretentious, childish, overly exaggerated series such high ratings, almost every one of them is from 8/10 to 10/10, while I couldn't not survive its 1st episode.

    Sweet and Entertaining Melodrama

    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.

    The Law Cafe is more than your ordinary romcom drama

    If I am to compare TLC to food, it's a full course with enough portions of everything. It will serve you balance sweet, salty, sour and spicy taste.

    I decided to watch this because of Lee SeungGi, I missed him in a romcom drama. Of course, he never disappoints in giving me butterflies. But the drama exceeds my expectation, it is definitely more than an ordinary romcom. Their idea of bringing common people's struggles to high point and resolve the cases outside of the court is a refreshing idea to me, a law drama without the actual court set-up. The intertwined story of the main characters is also something to look forward.

    I can't wait for the next episodes. I'm curious how they will solve the next case in ep.7.

    Nothing new to see here unfortunately

    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.

    For Romance more than enough

    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.
