I heard about Law School when it came out, but was never really interested since it gave me How to Get Away With Murder vibes. But then one day my boyfriend and I were just looking for a show to watch and I'm glad I gave it a shot!

Right at the beginning of the show, a professor gets murdered and a lot of the plot revolves around figuring out what really happened and looking at all of the possible suspects / getting to know the backstories of different characters. It's a show that hooks you in and keeps you guessing, and I think all of the characters were really well fleshed out and interesting. As the audience, you keep questioning the motives of people and if they are the bad guys or not but I also liked seeing the friendships in the show as it progressed. The study group of law students truly became friends and supported each other, and there is a very subtle kind of romance between Sol A and Han Joon-Hwi although it never really gets explored.

The show has this murder case at the heart of the plot, but along the way explores the relationships between people, how good people can make terrible mistakes and conversely, how people are also capable of doing the right thing even when it's not easy.

I found the ending a bit weird in that I would have liked more details on what happened to the villain of the story and I would have liked to have seen more of Kang Dan, but I enjoyed the show and would watch a second season if it came out. And I haven't seen Kim Bum in what feels like forever, but he still looks so young! I still remember him from Boys Over Flowers, so it's nice to see him in a drama again.
