      Excellent diversion for a gloomy day!

      A farce in the best tradition of the genre with outrageous exaggerations, rapid-fire delivery of the comedic lines with impeccable timing, and appropriate supporting roles acting as the foil to the absurdities of the farcical elements.

      Lee Soon-Jae is noteworthy as the wise and calming counterbalance to Tae Rim's off-the-wall antics, a butler who always seems to be on top of all the madness. Seo Eun-su playing the female lead Seo Jae In, exhibits a satisfying character arc as the initially naïve, innocent and idealistic young intern who gradually comes to see Tae Rim's hidden motives and eventually incorporates them into her own approach to her legal practice without the bombastic approach of her mentor.. I rated this an 8 because the script apparently is an adaptation of a Japanese series, thus diminishing to some extent the originality and creativity of the Korean scriptwriters.

      KDrama Legal High is great for de-stressing. Sooooo funny!!

      I love watching KDrama. It's one of my de-stressing outlets in this pandemic. Romcom and comedy are the genres I love best.

      I've never laughed so hard since Welcome to Waikiki 1. Legal High is really really fun and easy to watch. It's so captivating that I finished it in just 1 weekend.

      Fortunately, there's Business Proposal that I am following now that gives the same feel good vibes as Legal High.

      Must watch

      People who have watched the series descendants of the sun will understand just how much passion this actor has and the way he delivers each of his scene in this is just brilliant. I must say never thought I would be into korean tv series but wow just wow. They have gone above and beyond to bring the audience some of the best shows out there. Trust me guys have a go and you won't regret it.

      Preferred the Japanese version over this poor acted drama

      Having watched the Japanese version (with the same title) - Seasons 1, 2 and the two specials - the Korean version has been a major letdown. But again, the bar set by Masato Sakai and Yui Aragaki who enact the roles of Kensuke Komikado and Machiko Mayuzumi in terms of their performance is too high for Jin Goo and Seo Eun-Soo. Masato Sakai for one is brilliant as this quirky-foul mouthed-horny-genius lawyer. His mannerisms and rapid fire dialogue delivery makes the show fun to watch. Pity that the Korean version suffers mainly from miscasting of the main leads. If you havent watched the Japanese version yet, make sure you watch it. You wont regret it.

      10 stars for this banger!

      One of the best koreon shows and one of the most unrecognized, underrated shows there is or will be. The main lead has outdone himself and every supporting cast is amazing. As for the script, it is excellent with twists and turns every episode as each case is taken by the lawyer and his colleague. The music is full of adrenaline and gets you hyped up. As for the subtle parts, it is certain moments regarding the main lead which you must watch and discover yourself. He is a realist and his lessons are critical and crucial in learning about the world as well as its laws/rules. Another factor you must be aware of is there are moments when you have to listen very attentively or read the subs quickly or you'll miss out quite a lot since the main actor talks so fast. But he has a lot of humour in his rants. I became an instant fan. Another thing to remember is that it is taken from a Japanese show but this is done much better and this would include the music. There are some side characters that are obnoxious but you won't care since the ride your on is fast paced and in full-pursuit. It is a legal show but it has romance, friendship, etc. I have watched a lot of koreon shows but this is the first like vincenzo that makes it western in style. It's like the show 'suits' or the koreon version of suits. That's all I will say and leave it to you.
