Could've been great

I love law dramas. Law dramas with dark cases even better. Yet, this one couldn't really grasp me the way I was hoping.
There were a lot of horrible cases yes, but they tried to make us feel for the prosecuted and that's were it fell flat. Yes most of the kids wouldn't have committed the crimes they did if they weren't abandoned, abused or worse. When they don't feel remorse until after they get sentenced it's hard to feel for them. There were a few kids that I did feel for, like Seo Yu Ri, but I think that was because the crime she committed versus the things she was exposed to causing the crime was not as bad. But it wasn't really until the traffic accident case (ep7-8) were I really felt it and that is way to late for a show that is 10 episodes.

But I'll admit that it was an interesting take to watch a law show where all the crimes where committed by kids. It's interesting to see how horrible of crimes kids can commit and what leads them to make such decisions.

Now there wasn't really any bad acting but I was finding myself not caring for most of the characters, even the leads. The female lead is a character that hates juvenile offenders and we never find out why until the last 2 episodes. There is maybe 1 or 2 hints before then that hints why but that is not enough, causing us to have a lead that is harsh towards everyone for seemingly no reason making it hard to like her. She does show some sort of kindness towards some of the kids which is in my opinion her only redeeming aspect of her character.

Now the male main lead doesn't really do much, he is just there and is kind to everything and everyone. He sees the best in all of the kids and maybe that's what we need in this show. If he also would've been harsh to all of the kids, it would probably be even harder to like this show. I do think that he was one of reasons though why I felt the Traffic accident case so much. I'm not saying I didn't like his character but rather that I don't think he did very much for being a main character.

My favourite character was probably Kang Won Joong, the character that would have been the villain in any other Kdrama. The first couple of episodes he even falls into the cliché path of his type of character that causes them to be the villain. The difference is that he deep down is a good person and even though he does some wrong choices later on, he does in the end the right thing and never truly becomes the so called villain.

Na Geun Hee that doesn't show up until the last 4 episodes is not a likable character at all. She does show some redemption in the end but still too late in the show and not enough time to be able to like her character.

The music is really good, not a whole lot of soundtrack with lyrics but that is not a bad thing, I'm just used to have Kdrama have like 5-7 song with lyrics in its soundtrack.

Now because I don't find most of the characters that likable I don't see myself rewatching this one in the future. I would probably still recommend this one for people that like law dramas though.
