The Law Cafe

I couldn't even finish the first episode of this horrible series. It's so childish, pretentious and over-the-top pretentious. The overacting by all the characters, especially those male actors were just disgusting, they looked and acted more feminine than the real women. The weird hairdo of the Korean young guys or even older men, with ugly hairs covering their foreheads is such a disgusting trendy hairstyle popularized by the K movies and dramas. The formulaic twisted and zigzag way of talking by the males also make them feel more like females. Then the poorly scripted dialog, making her look at the camera, delivering a narrative monologue again and again was another formulaic acting cliche that we often see in the K drama series or movies other than talking to themselves to let viewers know what's going on in their brain; their thoughts got to be exposed through their mouths. I really don't know how all of these viewers gave this moronic, pretentious, childish, overly exaggerated series such high ratings, almost every one of them is from 8/10 to 10/10, while I couldn't not survive its 1st episode.

If I am to compare TLC to food, it's a full course with enough portions of everything. It will serve you balance sweet, salty, sour and spicy taste.

I decided to watch this because of Lee SeungGi, I missed him in a romcom drama. Of course, he never disappoints in giving me butterflies. But the drama exceeds my expectation, it is definitely more than an ordinary romcom. Their idea of bringing common people's struggles to high point and resolve the cases outside of the court is a refreshing idea to me, a law drama without the actual court set-up. The intertwined story of the main characters is also something to look forward.

I can't wait for the next episodes. I'm curious how they will solve the next case in ep.7.

6 episodes in and am already falling deep inlove with #TheLawCafe.

Apart from the solid and undoubtedly strong chemistry between #LeeSeungGi & #LeeSeYoung, the adaptation of the web novel and the script are well written and executed. The cliche's have a refreshing spin to it, and each episode's ending leaves you curious about what our characters will do next. The sensitive social issues are tastefully dealt with and the strong performances from every cast member leave a mark.

Lee Seung Gi and Lee Se Young's chemistry is undeniably strong, both their eye-acting is enough to make you feel all the feels!

Definitely a KDrama worth binging and repeating. It's a rom-com drama with all the right twists.👌👍

Lee Seung Gi plays Jungho character flawlessly alongside with Lee Se Young who also amazingly presents Yuri character as a persistent yet caring person lawyer is the spotlight. The stories told per episode are something that we can see in our everyday life. So, watching it may like that you see your daily life. Also, we can learn several moral values through the episodes. Some issues like bullying at school and apartment residents clash with the construction company are portrait in it. Love story is also the main plotline, which go back and forth from the high school and college of Jungho and Yuri. They will surely reunite as a couple again, for sure. The supporting roles also play crucial part, especially to enhance the comedy scene. It is a rom-com drama after all. Feel the joy watching it, so worthy!

I very much enjoyed The Law Cafe - the leads had great chemistry and the story was interesting and engaging. That being said, it was littered with cliches and should very much have been labelled/categorized as a melodrama. I was not expecting so many predictable and overly used plot devices, so that definitely affected my rating. These cliches made the story feel at times overly dramatic and sometimes even ridiculous. Although I was certainly never bored.

The acting was good all around, but I have to say the absolute stand out performance for me was the wildly entertaining, entirely insane character played by Jo Han-Chul. He completely stole every scene he was in, and at least half of my enjoyment came from watching him acting like a total lunatic.

Overall I enjoyed this, but probably wouldn't recommend it. Both the leads have been in much better dramas, and seeing them in those would be time better spent.
