    Strong start but draggy

    The Innocent Defender is a strong series with a captivating start that Grips you from episode one. However, this series would have been even better if they had stopped it around 12 or 14 episodes. The drama became very draggy and the storylines became very repetitive. The same things continuously happen that it became a bit of a bore to watch.

    The Acting is fairly decent in this series however, there isn't a huge spectrum of emotions to really portray. There are attempts at adding slap stick comedy by the prisoners, but it felt out of place with the serious nature of the rest of the drama. In this aspect, I felt they didn't really need it and could have just held strong with the intensity of a prison drama.

    Overall, a fairly decent courtroom/prison drama, however not my favorite nor one I would ever rewatch as this series suffers from repetition due to too many episodes.

    BEST ACTOR AND BEST KOREAN DRAMA!

    Nearly i've watched 20 korean dramas. this one is the best!!!!! ji sung is the best actor ever!

    BRILLIANT

    One word to describe this drama, BRILLIANT!!! This drama set the another level of Korean drama. You don't need a KISS scene, a romance, a hug but you can find really TRUE LOVE, FRIENDSHIP, LOYALTY and all the element in this drama.

    Hats off to the director, the script writer and all who are involve with this drama. Again, brilliant choice of all casts. They play their role brilliantly. Every single is episode important and you will feel like, i want to know more and more and more.

    Ji Sung indeed is one of the best actor in korea, He can express all the emotion really really well (I watch him in "Kill Me Heal Me" and "Secret Love", and omaigad he make it again). Not to forget the antagonist character here, Um-ki joon, he is like "Damn, he is really good in this character".

    TRUST ME, you should watch it -Lots of Love, Lady Leeza-

    Very good drama, A must watch

    Amazing drama, amazing acting by main actor and villian, superb and captivating story, beautiful, a litttttle bit unreal moments in few scenes which can be easily neglected as it is a drama so anything can happen. But overall excellent drama. A must watch.

    Best suspenseful drama

    One of the best suspenseful Korean dramas I have seen. All of the actors were amazing and very believable. Ji Sung is one of the most versatile actors around. Plaudits to the writers and directors. Don't miss this. You won't be disappointed.
