Almost perfect
Why? WHY????I've let out my frustration, so let's get started😝
First, I hated Miho's death, which I think It was completely unnecessary. But someone had already told me (people love to give spoilers without warning), so I cried more with the death of our favorite psychopath who was not a psychopath.
Second. As soon as I found out who the big mouse was, I lost a lot of interest. It became a bit obvious and repetitive. (For me, it became a little boring.)
Third. I kept seeing it because the acting of the cast, the ost, the photography... Everything was extremely good.
Fourth. The end was so suddenly that It felt like they had to end and had no more time and couldn't do any more episodes.
However, apart from the unnecessary death and being predictable from Episode 12, it was one of the best dramas I've watched.

Big Mouth was a great drama. I'm reading the comments and people said it was a bad ending and it wasn't. Miho was going to die. She was terminally ill. Park Changho came to the realization that fighting with the law the bad guy could still win. He needed to come to the realization that sometimes you need to take matters in your own hands and that's why he killed Choi Doha. This will make him a better Big Mouse if there is a season 2. I hope there is because I still want to see Chaiman Kang psycho son make an appearance and an even bigger and better storyline. I wish they had made this 24 episodes instead of sixteen that would have tied up loose ends gave us a better plot line and brought the son in the picture and Big Mouse could haven taken him and Choi Doha out.

this is one of Lee Jong Suks BEST roles he is amazing
honestly I don't usually watch these kinds of dramas but holy SH*T this is awesome and the acting along with the scenes are so realistic and hard to get past.I'm so bent on who is big mouse on one side I think it's Changho but some how he hypnotized himself into thinking he isnt...?
but on the other it might be Jerry because Jerry seems to be hiding A LOT.
I DON'T KNOWW BUT I'M GONNA KEEP WATCHING!
then again in the latest ep it seems like he was gonna be killed by that deaf nurse which would mean instead of getting the money back they want him dead again but big mouse refuses to actually let Changho die

Not in the slightest convincing as in acting or script
First of all, I must seek for the understanding of Lee Jong Suk, as I have nothing good to write about his (not existing) acting, according to my opinion, that is. What the...? It was during the 7th episode that I asked myself, why do I bother to watch this? All I was seeing was the efforts of someone who tried to act manly but couldn't, from the pink pyjamas he wore on the 1st episode as he played 'home' with his wife(?), holding his waist on bed as a ballerina, sharing the eye night cream with his wife (?), just resting his arms on his wife(?) instead of hugging her, had the same expression-less face throught the show (well, up until the 7th episode), trying to give the deepest tone is his voice to sound serious, BUT NOT CONVINCING! The whole cast (tough men) in prison could not save his face nor make him show tough to the slightest. Maybe it would be better for him to stick to light asexual comedies, than him trying so hopelessly to show some ( I really don't know any other better word than the one that we have in Greek, so here it is, "βαρβατίλα". Maybe, 'mucho'? Probably that's the word. Mr. Lee had always that light smile on the tips of his lips and the same look on his eyes, that's nothing, that is. I know he's a mega star in Hangul, but please, give me a break! I had seen him in two series, the third, 'Pinocchio', I dropped because of him. Such an untalented actor!The story is so predictable, that was the second reason I dropped the series. I bet you anything that the prime evil guy is the mayor, and big mouth is the least expected in the series, probably the head (or the puppet) of a shadowy organisation. There.
No need to watch it.
Sorry for the harsh review, I'd better go and watch something else than Big mouth.

Suspenseful, good cast
Good cast, not only main characters but also support characters fit the show perfectly. If after 4 episodes we are still not sure if Lee Jong Suk is playing dark character or he is just pretending to survive, it just proves that he made a good job.Was this review helpful to you?
2.5/10 because of the great cast
I'm putting this one on hold for now. I feel like it became a little too predictable, even though we don't know who the Big Mouse is at this point. Maybe I will come back to this drama because I love the actors who play in it. However, my initially high expectations will be much lower.Or I'll just drop it…
I had mixed feelings about this drama from the very first episodes, but each time I decided to watch it further because of the actors who were doing great. The way this story is written is mediocre, and even brilliant actors can't help it. In fact, it destroys the potential of the actors.
I feel very disappointed with this drama because I waited a long time for Lee Jong Suk's first drama after he finished his military service and it does not meet even half of my expectations.

A great start !
This show starts in a great way ! Having started watching a lot of similar dramas but being disappointed after one or two episodes, I can say I have a lot of hopes for the upcoming episodes ! I just hope they didn't just blandly made a copy of Mouse since I really wish to be surprised at the end of the drama and not just say "oh okay I new it since ep2...".The casting is really good ,Jong Suk's acting skills didn't disappoint at all and I got to see another side of him here since I was kinda used to just see him in romantic types of dramas.
The other actors were great too! I just do not have any of their other dramas to compare their acting to, since I do not know them :(
I sincerely wish there were more of these type of dramas ... There are the only ones I am hyped and excited for the whole week just to see a new episode .
Thanks for reading this guys and if y'all have any drama suggestions I am here for it :)

Not exactly how I expected the story to be/to end but overall excellent!
A lot of things to talk about. First it's not what I expected it to be, I thought the moment we knew about big mouse that surely he is going to be Lee Jong Suk for sure! But what i didn't think of is him becoming big mouse! I thought he might become an evil character resulting him into becoming equal to big mouse (if he wasn't him) . Also just how surprising was it that Do ha's intentions wasn't only him wanting justice and revenge for his grandpa's death he also wanted to still work in the project his grandpa was against like whatt???!! He wanted money,power,wanted to stay in the filth ,like I thought he's gonna stop once he gets his revenge but noo..he became a monster .. And absolutely deserved his ending! ! (Not gonna lie didn't expect him to be the villain or him being evil like this to be exact,like I thought he might be big mouse but not this evil)Loved the sequence of events honestly not what I expected like it's sad and funny and wholesome. Loved most of the characters and loved the ending it's sad and sassy and everything. So happy that he got his revenge in the sassiest way ever! Felt bad for Ko Mi ho but honestly she died as a hero and although I was at first like it's her fault why she bummed in that place from the first place but I really felt bad for her and she doesn't deserve what happened to her eventually she was an awesome character and what she did for her husband all her life is going to make him remember her for ever! Loved how he at the end he became a good villain ..
I agree the series was rushed at the end I would've wanted it to be more extended but because I watched the last three episodes together I didn't get so disappointed I felt it affected me emotionally that I didn't care for it to be detailed ,but bot gonna lie I got upset that they left a lot of things in the air without showing us and without explaining why they added this detail in the first place(like the psychopath why did you mention him if you're not gonna show us who he is). I would've loved it even more if it was at least 18 episodes. Regardless it's LJS's best work till now for me.
A lot to talk about but as usual my thoughts are so messy when I try to talk about a show!

rest in love, ko miho.
this year really screams for big mouth, so it has a high rating and they deserve it. everyone knows that big mouth has a nice plot and so many people make and conclude a theory.regarding the ending, i feel dissatisfied cause it seems rushed and it seems like it's forcing ..... there are still some that haven't really been revealed at least we have a special episode or this drama could have been 20 episodes. why are people not looking for hyejin, who is chairman kang's son, etc. apart from miho's death, everyone felt his own hard time at the ending EXCEPT gong jihoon, he got what he wanted. also why at the end ko miho's dad is not shown? professor seo's paper wasn't elaborated, how's hyun juhee going after she became a witness in court? and I really, really don't accept that Choi Doha just died. he should receive the same recompense as he did before, i'm so MADDDDDD.

Big Mouse finds an apprentice.
I will not be long winded. Regarding the netizens' frustration about a rushed ending and a few bummers in the plot, as much as i agree with you all...i also saw the sum of all things from a different perspective.1. The writer nicely used " what can go wrong will go wrong " for the explosion.
2. Big Mouse needed a puppet but he found a worthy student.
3. The FL chose hippocrates oath over common sense and of course every choice has karma.
It was a good watch. I love that the ML had a unique soundtrack for his alter ego.

Lot of plot twist
The story is about a lawyer who got involved with a wrong person and accused as the Big Mouse who is the greatest trickster that no one knows about who is the real Big Mouse. In the middle journey, He got into jail, got beaten, and many other things. But He never gives up on finding out who's the Big Mouth to take revenge. To fight the Big Mouth, He manages to make himself the fake Big Mouth. Sadly his family got involved too. That's how their journey begins to find out the Big Mouth and the real enemies.There are a lot of plot twists until you find the real Big Mouth and who's the real enemies.
*In this series there is much blood so if you are afraid of fighting/blood scenes, just skip it.

PERFECT DRAMA but partly heart breaking end
The story follows The lawyer Park Chang Ho (Lee Jung Suk ), known among his friends by the: Big Mouth. He is actually a very ordinary lawyer, he don't win many cases, he has a lot of debts and he lives a happy life with his wife Ko Miho (Yoona) and his father-in-law. One day, he receives a call from an important person asking him to take over the defense of a three people accused of killing a professor working in Kochon Hospital, who will later appear to be a great danger to this elite. Chang Ho agrees in exchange for fame and money ofc , but he have a car accident and gets up to find out that he is accused of being the notorious criminal and looter money : the Big Mouse. He is arrested and the events goes on, Chang Ho transferred to the prison where he will resist to survive in this dark world that controled by the The corrupt elite that got him involved in these events from the beginning. We continue to try to guess who is really the big mouse, and what if he is it Chang himself. Suspicion will reach us the point that we can suspect his wife and even his father-in-law! At least that what happened to me!A very wonderful weave with many puzzles and surprises in each episode, and the mesytrious events never loses its level, it continues to increase it in enthusiasm and suspense.
All the characters are great, and I loved the strength of the female cast, especially Ko Miho.
Unfortunately I feel disappointed in the end because of these points:
1- Ko Miho didn't have to die to order to destroy the evil elite! And Chang Ho to really become big mouse. It broke my heart, their perfect couple didn't deserve this end.
2- they mentioned that serial killer son of the old man but he didn't appear which confused me cuz he seemed important to the polt. And i was thinking if there's a season 2 to avoid this gap?
3- and i hate that no knew that Hee Jin was killed by her psychopath husband and no one seemed to be concerned about her.
But at the end i gave it 10 cuz it's a very good drama, and i loved every detail about it from the acting, the polt, and the chemistry between the main leads, they are amazing. And I'm very proud to watch Jung Suk coming back with such a good drama.
