umm... I kinda want to study law now?
Guys it was really really good. I just finished watching and like I can't even express it right now.
I will organize the positives and negatives into points and then go into more detail.
Positives:
- the story is bomb
- evidence isn't always "by chance"
- the characters are likeable
- you can emphasize with the characters
- the drama is almost separated into sections
- it is sassy
- it makes you feel smart
- the music is great
- humour and seriousness at the right times
- somewhat realistic
- not cheesy
- you might learn something about the law (Korean law)
- good actors/casting
- it makes you want to study law
Ok so the story is very good. If you've watched "Class of Lies" it kind of reminded me of that, but in "Class of Lies" a lot of the evidence was found by chance. In this drama the teachers and students actually looked into the cases and proved a lot of evidence instead. That I liked, because the students kind of got better at doing it as the drama continued and there was some character development in that department. On top of that, the drama is based off/the main characters are the members of the study group. Everyone in the study group is quite different from the other, which makes it interesting to watch them together.
It's also easier to develop a favourite character, which personally, I think is very important. While watching the drama, it might not seem obvious, but the drama had sections for a couple of the study group's members. You'll see what I mean, but during those sections, you learn a lot about one certain character.
Now, the contents of the drama is also great. It has the right amount of sass, humour, seriousness, cuteness and sadness. Of course since it is a drama about law, it is mostly serious with hints of the other components. An important thing to note is that it was rather realistic. Occasionally I will catch a drama that is serious, but not really realistic. I would say that this drama is pretty realistic because all the evidence and clues make sense, although it'd be quite rare for what happened in this drama to happen in real life. To add on, the music is perfect. There aren't many lyrics, but when there are they're very simple. I liked that factor because I always picture a very academic place to be minimalistic. They also use simple things like heaving breathing as background music. Despite the music being simple, it is always freaking stuck in my head and I literally repeat them to myself all the time.
A couple bonuses is that you might learn something about the law. I believe that the staff and cast did their part of the research on Korean law. I think that the legal lines and some of the cases are real, but don't quote me on that. I loved the casting and I thought that everyone was fit to the role they were given. A random thing is that it might make you interested/want to study law. Ngl it low-key happened to me....
Negatives:
- they talk fast (maybe I'm just slow at reading)
- you have to remember a lot of names/law terminology to minimize confusion
- easy to get lost
- a lot to process
Ok not many negatives, I promise it won't be that long lmao. So, I thought that they talked fast and I had to go back to read the subtitles. It is a negative, but I understand because I would imagine that lawyers speak faster. This also might just be that I'm a slow reader. Another thing is that there's a lot of people's names to remember. I would suggest to know them by heart because their relationship to one another could get complicated and everything will be easier once you match the names to the faces. However, it is not something I would change because then it would affect the complexity of the case. It was just a little hassle that's all. Now, other factors when watching a rather complicated drama like "Law School", is that it is also much easier to get lost and there's a lot of information to process. So maybe clear your mind a little bit before starting and pace the episodes.
