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.
From IMDB:
"Hyena' deals with very competitive private lawyers who only work for the richest 1% of society. Stars: Ju Ji-Hoon, Kim Hye-su, Kyeong-Yeong Lee."
Of course there's much more to pack into 16 x one hour episodes, in this (so far) first series. Hopefully there will be a second. IMO, it's that good.
Standout amongst the three main leads is veteran S. Korean actress Kim Hye-Su, who plays lawyer 'Jung Geum Ja', at high powered law firm 'Song & Kim.' IMO she steals every scene and is the epitome of a mature Bad Azz Boss Lady, who grew up poor and worked with "lowlifes" before being recruited for 'Song & Kim', as she was rough and tough and willing to bend the rules. With short hair and couture clothes she gets the job done. (BTW: She is a third Dan Black Belt Taekwondo, in real life and her nickname from fans is "Wonder Woman.")
Of course there's romance, betrayal and jealousy - as usual at the law firm, where gossiping is a way of life, and Jung uses her female wile's to get what she wants, when she wants it - leading her into a 'love-hate' relationship.
Clever and fast paced, this 'Hyena' series will keep you satisfied until the end. I rate same an easy 9/10.

This kdrama is such a pleasant surprise! The leading couple are not Barbie and Ken. They instead are smart, clever and flawed. This show is LOL funny with lots of fun plot twists. The writing and acting is so good! Highly recommend!
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!!!

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. 😄
