I Can Hear Your Voice

I have always loved court room dramas and legal thrillers- books, movies, soaps and sitcoms. I like those well written scripts that take advantage of the loopholes in law to build powerful twists in the plots, keeping the audience or viewers engaged till the end. 'I hear your voice' is a romantic comedy- my most favorite of Korean drama genres, with the right amount of courtroom cases, and a bit of fantasy. The episodes were an easy watch, interesting and entertaining. He is a high school kid who can hear people's thoughts. These extra voices in his ears make his world noisier. She is a lawyer- a public defender, quite a few years older than him. She is his first love. He admired her since she came as a witness of his father's murder to the trial 10 years ago. Searching for her when he grew up, he found her on the pages of a newspaper. Then as they became closer, from just acquaintances in a case, he starts helping her during trials- by reading everyone's minds; and she takes the responsibility of his guardian. It's just fun to watch them – when she tries to hide her humiliations and embarrassed thoughts from him, but he reads them anyhow. I like the plot twists a lot. The prisoner of 10 years is now released, who holds a grudge against the public defender, as she had been a witness to that murder, and threatens to kill her. But her protector is there to save her from every mishap with all his might.

I'm loving it!!! It's one unconventional love story...

I love this drama! I just watched in two days and just sleep 3 hours I'm a total sucker for Lee Bo Young romances and Lee Jong Suk, the writer knows how to touch our hearts! The plot arrangement was very very impressive and the characters combination was suitable with the storyline. Many messages that i got from this drama. After watching episode 18 learning the true meaning of Hearing people's voice, the feeling I got is something I have never felt before... Once again I have to give it to Korean story. Better than anything i have seen so far. Excellent performance by all the casts specially Lee Bo-Young. This is must watch drama

An Inspiring and heartwarming story, good presentation and superb performance, great OST. Definitely worth the time.

Pak Soo Ha (Lee Jong Suk) the courageous little boy who witnessed his father's murder and abandoned by his family, overcome hardships and became a fine young man. The character is very well written and very well presented, Soo ha is kind, smart and considerate, a man of great patience, matured for his age and a man of his word. Lee Jong Suk's outstanding acting makes Pak Soo Ha comes alive, you can feel his heartache and pain over the course of the 18 episodes. Lee is a very promising young actor, always delivered and always impressive. It is definitely a joy to watch his show.

Jang Hye-Sung (Lee BoYoung) the flawed, sometimes annoying with her fake bravado and inconsiderate mouth. She can endear the audience with her strong sense of justice and irritate us with her sometimes lack of empathy, also her "mouth faster than her brain" hurtful statements to Soo Ha makes you root more for Soo Ha. Lee BoYoung is a good actress when given the right material. In this series, her performance is superb, watched her in Whisper, didn't think she is as good as she was in I can hear. What makes Jang endear/irritate us is she represents the majority of population. We are all flawed and yet we are all unique in our own little world.

Seo Do-Yeon and Cha Gwan- Woo : the second lead pair, superb performance both, specially Yoon. I like both Soo ha and Gwan-woo's character, they represent the kind and the good in the world. Both have strong characters and stand firm by their decision/believe and wont sway even under immense pressure or stress.

Min Joon Gook (Woong-in Jeong): the villain. The character is cunning and evil, very good performance from Woong, adds a lot of climax to the story, his interaction scene with Joon Suk is captivating and exciting.

I thoroughly enjoy the show and urge people to make time for it. Look for the deeper meaning of this series than just the romance of the leads. The romance is sweet and there are average chemistry between the leads. The soundtrack is great. Overall, highly recommended.

It's quite an intense drama, with a bit of everything romance, murder, a lot of rather interesting lawsuits and a dash of supernatural. Actually, I really like super powers/fantasy/etc. but the mind reading in this story was a bit strange - we weren't suggested any explanation for it and it seemed to come and go for strange reasons (it appeared because of an intense trauma and then went away when the character lost his memories, only for him to regain his powers the moment he remembered the trauma in question). The romance is cute and all the characters are very entertaining, with strong personalities (even the small side characters manage to be easy to remember). Anyway... because I'm too lazy to write a long review I'm just going to say that I recommend this to those that can get into a pretty long story (the episodes are 1h long and A LOT of things happen all the time) with a bit of interesting debates on ethics (and law).

The rate is 9.5, but since I was gonna remove a star for lack of chemistry, I don't think it matters. Actual chemistry is not something I expect much from KD anymore.

The cases were really interesting. Of all the characters, my favorite was Mr Cha. He was deep and human in every possible way. I admired him, and felt for him and even found myself rooting (a bit) for his love. I can never forget him. It didn't bother me to see how miss Jang just didn't care about her clients. I know for a fact that a lot of lawyers are like that. That could be why Mr Cha seemed to be a knight in shining armour.

In fact, I liked all the characters. The friendship between the lawyer and the client he failed to help was really moving.

Of course, the plot was nothing that could happen in real life. So what? This is KD land! They still managed to turn the villain into a victim, isn't that trendy?

Lee Jong Suk was handsome as ever, but what I noticed was his great acting, especially when he grew desperate and mad. The scene with the pay phone is worth seeing.

This show is definitely one of my favorites. Tchuka!
