STORY
This film is about father-daughter relationship, about friendship and it shows us that injustice happens.
The story is really moving, but there are also funny elements, which made the movie even better.
I loved the whole movie except for the trial scenes. As a law student, I just could not bear how ridiculous the scenes were. They always lost me there. It was way to emotional to be true. Due to those scenes, I had to deduct one point.
CAST/ACTING
The cast was superb. I cannot express with my words how amazing the actors were.
Firstly, let me mention Kal So Won. This young actress was stellar. She is definitely one talented child actress. She was simply amazing!
Ryu Seung Ryong as the father deserves all the awards he has won. His acting was flawless. I totally believed that he is a mentally disabled person. The scenes with him and Kal So Won were amazing. I was crying whenever they parted. Both of them portrayed their characters really well.
Also the actors who portrayed the prisoners were great. Oh Dal Su, Park Won Sang, Jung Man Shik, Kim Jeong Tae and Kim Ki Cheon proved that they are senior actors and they never disappoint my expectations. Thanks to those actors, the movie can be rated as a comedy. I simply loved them!
Jeong Jin Young's role was the chief of the prison. His character needed more screen time. There were bits of information about his life, which were disclosed but they were practically useless for the story. They should have focused on it more or just not focus on it at all.
As for Park Shin Hye. Thanks to this movie, I confirmed that I am not a fan of hers. I don't like her acting. I didn't believe her character for a single moment. I am sorry, but she was supposed to be a lawyer. I know that she defended her father's case, but she was way too emotional for her to be a lawyer. I just could not take her seriously in the trial scenes. When she was acting as a lawyer, her acting was seriously not good. Also, I cannot see any diversity in her acting. She always plays the same types of characters. Therefore, I am glad that here, her role was not as big and Kal So Won had more screen time.
MUSIC
The music was okay, It fitted with the film well and accompanied the scenes brilliantly.
OVERALL
The film had a small budget so the story is quite simple. There is nothing eccentric and I like those types of movies. They are usually the best movies you can watch.
I cried several times while watching this film. It is a great movie with a message and it is definitely worth to watch.

If you are postponing watching the drama because of the synopsis, let me assure you that the story is nothing like the synopsis. If the plot was written there, then there would be no surprises when you watch the drama. Throughout the drama, I was constantly guessing what is going on and how will the two plot lines come together. To be honest, most of the time, I was wrong in my guessing :D That is why I loved the drama, because it was really unpredictable, kept me on the edge all the time and never stopped me guessing the plot. One great script-writing there!
The acting was very good, even though there were some actors which did not portray their roles as believably as others, but such actors had just minor roles so it did not bother me that much. The main cast did an admirable job and I am going to stalk everyone's future works from now on :)
The instrumental music was very fitting for the drama. There was only one memorable vocal OST song.
I am not sure whether I will rewatch the drama since I know all the plot twists now but maybe I will watch it later just to see some details I could have missed while watching it for the first time.
Overall, it was a spectacular drama which deserved to put on my "Worth to mention Dramas" list. So far, the best finished drama of 2017!
