Sweet Romance Evolved Around Court Room
First, I want to share my review based on different levels of thinking.
I like the cinematographic setting. I give 2 thumbs up for the acting skills shown by the cast, especially how they portray emotions as required by the script.
This drama doesn't provide a complete picture of most legal cases like other courtroom dramas (I would not think this is a courtroom drama though) but it clearly conveys the values and beliefs of the characters involved. Therefore, I think the opening question of the episode "why do you want to be a lawyer?" find the answers through the values and beliefs of these lawyers and their clients.
I must say this is a typical Chinese drama and should pass tight censorship. However, in this drama, censorship actually brings back the values of the ancient martial world, the more than 3000 years old highly valued relationship of a master (mentor/teacher) and pupils. And just like the “wutang story”, you will see how bad people are punished, and good people finally find justice. Maybe, it's too good to be true.
We can see how a sense of self-identity develops as the characters deal with different clients and life events. The characters we met in the first episode are no longer the ones we saw in the end. A useful takeaway moral value for the audience. In their new sense of self-identity, lawyer characters are ready to express their already balanced values, making them stronger to do more for justice. This is also another takeaway from this drama, so we don’t just get entertainment, but also a set of lessons.
