Beautifully Written

The first episode had me hooked. The opening scene was beautiful. The characters were awesome. The acting was great, but I was worried on how they will be able to keep the essence of these characters true throughout the show. There was a very fine balance walking along the dark side and the light side (law). If you had these worries, let me tell you know that this show kept true with the characters even as they developed.

The biggest complaint that I have heard is how annoying the female lead is. I agree at the very beginning I thought she was annoying and was really worried that she would be the damsel in distress. This changed when I realized that she is a professional lawyer who has a temper and does not give a f*** about people's opinions. She mocks peoples to see them flounder about and reveal their weakness. She uses that to her advantage. In terms of her world views, they are very gray at the end of the day. I won't lie her character is always something I am worried about turning into the typical FL, but so far this show has not disappointed me with her presentation.

Every actor in this show really knows their characters. I never really think about this while watching this drama, but you can totally tell the dedication and effort these actors are putting into this show.

Overall, this show walks on a fine line the entire time of being a great hit or the next Game of Thrones, so far this show has me hooked at episode 10 and the balancing act has been real. This show is a breath of fresh air that I have been craving for in this sea of very similar plots.
