Witch's Court

For those that like legal procedural drama's like "Law and Order" or "Chicago P.D." I think this show is very much in that same vein. The beginning of the show is mostly procedural, with a main plot line taking shape around the halfway mark.

Right off the bat I didn't like Ma Yi-Deum. I get it, she is the type to do whatever it takes to get the bad guys in jail. But it was in extremely poor taste that she revealed the sexuality of the victim in the first episode. It really put a bad taste in my mouth. Her attitude was sometimes refreshing and different, but overall I found her unlikable. Jin-Wook wasn't really memorable either, even though Hyun-Min (the actor who plays him) is a very good actor, this character was forgettable.

The main plot line was okay, but I grew increasingly frustrated with the tone and lack of progress, so I ended up fast forwarding through most of the episodes. The show had this weird "slap-stick" quality to it, with the music and certain "comedy" scenes, and there were some really fake fight scenes as well.

Overall, this is a throwaway watch for those who have nothing else to watch, or for those that like procedural dramas that aren't too complicated to follow. It definitely was not my cup of tea.

I really liked the story line and the acting is damn good. Lead Actress is funny, she deceives with an attitude. I watched it in one sitting.

A well acted legal drama dealing with a special team of prosecutors investigating crimes against women. It deals with individual cases but also has a backstory running right through it of a corrupt cop who is now the City mayor. The Mayor has links to the disappearance of the female leads mother, and also other members of the team. I think it failed to develop the stories or characters and the series seemed stilted with storylines building nicely but coming to an abrupt end. Enjoyable enough but I think it could have been much better.

The main female character lacks so much expression. Even in emotional scenes, she doesn't seem bothered by the specific scene. She says the lines and cries the tears but it's just not looking veritable. It's all cold and dry. Dramatic scenes about her own life are like nothing, she bounces back so awkwardly easy for a character that has been through such a huge traumatic experience.

I enjoyed this. Acting from all the cast was excellent with the female lead managing to rnge from sassy to sympathetic. OK sme of her decisions were pretty dubious but she handled it well. The male lead was good and the main villain really scary.

The sub stories had good twists as did the main plot. The last four episodes especially were like watching a good chess game. Liked the music and the very low key romance.

Not sure of re watchability but the acting will stay in my mind.
