Hyena

I have watched a few courtroom based Kdramas and this one I classify as epic! Not a dull moment and omg don't even get me started on the last 2 episodes that were out of this world hilarious, amazing and downright addictive.

Kudos to the writer for such an outstanding character like Jung Geum Ja, and Kim Hye Soo who portrays her. I bow down to the mistress. Let's be honest, the woman stole the show and every scene she was in.

I need a season 2!!!

Not gonna lie but I started this drama for Kim Hye-soo (the brilliant leading actress as Jung Geum-ja). This is not really a drama about court and legal cases, it's more about the characters - how Yoon Hee-Jae and Jung Geum-ja do things similarly but also very differently. The script is good, something totally different from the cliche romantic kdrama (no offence), the acting of Hye-soo and Ju Ji-hoon are excellent as always. Hye-soo really can pull off a wide range of characters, I can't think of any other Korean actresses that can do a great job portraying this role. (So, kudos, Hye-soo unnie.) What I didn't expect that I'd root for is the chemistry and tension between the two main characters. I don't usually get attached to pairings on kdrama but this is really good. A must watch, trust me.

Hyena is more thrilling than I expected. And it is rarely to see all castings have good-acting in Korean drama like Hyena. All actors did a good job.

The age gap between Kim Hye-soo and Ju Ji-hoon is an unnecessary problem. Instead, their chemistry in "Hyena" is out of my imagination. When Kim Hye-soo and Ju Ji-hoon have rows with sarcastic expression, their mocking eyes staring at each other is like passing the electrity instantly , and the sparks flying on dry air. This is why their chemistry becomes so sexy and hot even without long kiss scenes or bed scenes as those 99.9% Kdramas did.

Unlike most female leads always stand on righteous side, "Hyena" female lead is strong, clever, and extremely selfish-- earning more money by any means even that is immoral. The male lead is also strong ,clever, and arrogant. I really love to see the male lead expression when his pride is wounded after the female lead poaches his clients numerous times.

These settings make "Hyena" become so unique and interesting.

I hope the kdramas which is like "Hyena" will be more in the future.

But so far, this is the best love-hate relationship Korean drama for me.

Kim Hye soo it is brilliant! Every scene she appears in is stolen. It was the best casting decision. The chemistry between the two leads is incredible. A very well crafted story. It deserves a second season.

Loved every single moment: Great actors. Great acting. Extremely well-written script, witty alongside a good portion of humor. Also, love to get an insight to the Korean culture, their way of thinking and the lifestyle. Definitely worth a binge. 😄
