Comments

GH Jun 11 2023 5:59 pm This drama is in my top 3! Not slow no loop holes!! Amazing acting by all in the cast. Action packed from episode one till the end. The lead Ji Sung really showed what a talented actor he is. He can bring the emotion and became his character. He makes you believe the story!! The young little child actress is phenomenal also! Don’t miss this one. This is worth the watch!!!! Ignore anyone who says otherwise.

Gamma Feb 28 2023 8:01 am Theme of this drama is good but tired to watch it because it's too slow.. And why doesn't the writer think that she's made the protagonist never win evemn once against the villain so tiring and unattractive ?

konyakuya Sep 06 2022 8:04 am the drama gets too draggy it's hard to finish watching. at episode 14,i wonder if i should continue or drop. it not ends at 16 but 18. the writings are bad and there's so much unnecessary scenes that can be cut.

Natalie ch Feb 10 2022 3:18 am Another good drama of Jisung!! He always plays the character so well! The lovely family turn into nightmare in one night. Jisung portrayed a desperate dad and husband perfectly! He looks so cool as a prosecutor!

Lunacy Feb 09 2022 8:37 pm I'm watching this drama right now. I'm on episode 13 and I don't know how long I can last... Everything is soooo slow!!! And some characters (including the main one) do such stupid things that I'm just exploding! My mind is going to blow up! I'm constantly asking myself "Why??? Why so stupid? When is it all going to end?" I keep watching only because I always finish things that I've started. Nevertheless, the drama is not that bad. I can say that it's even good. But it could be so much better if it consisted of 8-10 episodes instead of 18. It's incredibly slow.

Mimi Dec 22 2021 9:39 am Oh Chang Seok oppa is too too handsome here

WK Dec 08 2021 10:57 am It's all about Ji Sung screaming, crying, threatening, going into solitary, brooding, being angry, crying, screaming, brooding, tearful, crying again, screaming again etc , take all these away it shd be a good series

Kai Dec 04 2021 7:09 am Episode 12, and I still don't see why was this so highly rated. Everything is just so convenient lol from his selective amnesia to his prison mates, one being the one who kidnapped his daughter and suddenly another one is a surgeon. And what's with the annoying BGM every time like he was actually doing something intense/thrilling? I'm just actually going to finish this for closure, just like any other.

Also for that one saying this has no plot holes, are you supposed to tell me the police didn't investigate the neighborhood of the murder scene (male lead home), or that they didn't find the kid in that neighbor's house? It's also funny how the kid is conveniently tagging along with a total stranger.

Visiol Oct 11 2021 3:01 pm I recommend this TV series ? It's very good and the actors did amazing.

Jen Aug 10 2021 3:33 am I have watched 8 episodes. The plot is good, but the male lead character is very frustrating. He has lost his memory, I understand. But did he lose his personality too? From a cool and smart prosecutor he suddenly becomes an emotional madman. He keeps shedding tears after tears all the time, to the point that it becomes very exhaustive. There are 10 more episodes to watch now. I wonder how to go on.

Ebisine Michael Tobi Aug 09 2021 3:14 pm Joo Dan Taeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!! always bad i can't imagine him as a good guy in dramas lol

Calicia Jul 14 2021 10:22 am Believe me or not. I literally finished this in just two days?

Bae Ro-Na Mar 26 2021 2:21 am Joo Dan-Tae you can never fool me.

Jennie Mar 14 2021 4:17 am Probably one of the best drama i’ve watched. Acting was good especially Jisung, he did EXTREMELY well. Uhm Ki Joon also did very well. Give this drama a try and you won’t regret it. Some people might think it’s too slow???? But nah it’s worth.

rini Dec 18 2020 10:05 pm Now im seraching all the dramas acted by ji sung. He deservers more n this field. He always carry his character as his own soul. Sometimes it felt like he is a real prosecutor and he is not acting. He is an actor of versalities. I loved all his drama and i know its too late i recognised him. Love you ji-sung

Unknown Nov 01 2020 4:10 am Best drama ever,first time I am watching Ji sung drama,he deserves to win Daesang Prize. Really worth it to watching.Thumb up?

mafii Oct 20 2020 8:01 pm OMG this kind of acting deserves an Oscar .great job everyone. The best drama ever. Loved it ??

ad May 29 2020 2:03 pm One of the best dramas out there that are not the lovey dovey types. Very exciting and thrilling to watch. One of my top 5s for sure. Other ones I recommend watching are Whisper, Remember and Two Weeks. 95/100

jestine29 May 22 2020 6:33 am @kdramaaddict... what plot holes are you talking about??? LOL seriously by far the most flawless korean drama ever made. Slow-paced? not at all! in fact all episodes are carefully written that it goes harmoniously with everything.

marinel May 13 2020 10:33 am one of the best kdrama ive watched

catlin Apr 20 2020 12:37 am one of the best kdramas ive watched. its always in my list if someone asked me kdramas to watch. actors were amazing. really such good actors

Kdramaaddict Feb 23 2020 10:05 pm Too many plotholes and the pace was too slow for me...

Aayu Dec 22 2019 4:36 am One of the best kdramas. Great acting. I love ji sung's character so much.

Mix-Movie.com Oct 15 2019 11:10 am In Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Indonesia and Cambodia the drama aired on Sony ONE within 24 hours after its original South Korean broadcast with subtitles.

ien Oct 04 2019 10:05 pm Best KDrama ever.

Shiraiishi Aug 29 2019 9:04 am

Warning - kinda spoiler*

okay guys i know its kinda weird to say this for a heavy drama genre but I KINDA SHIP TAE SOO (ha yeon's uncle) with EUN HYE (attorney) hahahaha omg i was waiting for them to get marry in last ep but argh kinda sad tho bcs there's no scene for that

Ann95 Jul 10 2019 2:25 pm This was a very interesting drama for me.Acting was so well.I really love Ji Sung oppa's character so much ,throughout thus series relationship between him & her daughter was very lovable & real.I liked many other characters too.

ao Feb 23 2019 3:39 pm One of my favorite Kdramas! Um ki joon and jisung did a great job.

kpopandgrime Feb 19 2019 9:22 pm Oh My God !!!. This drama was destined for greatness from the first episode, and Ji Sung's performance will be forever cemented in my heart (totally deserved the grand prize, but I must admit that Uhm Ki joon was not far off).

Thank you to the director, writer and the whole cast (the prison squad actually made prison look fun; DAEBAK).Thanks to them this has become one of my favorite dramas; for real and I dont know how this is my first time watching this in 2019. Totally Recommended !!!

Love From London

Ji Sung fan Feb 12 2019 8:32 am really loved the story of this drama! Best acting as it is Jing Sungya and to all the cast.really did their best. Best of the Best Innocent Defendant. Fighting!?????????

Elena Feb 11 2019 1:46 pm Very happy that this drama was on Netflix. Very good script, image, cast, direction etc.

Cha Sun Ho's ghost Nov 15 2018 8:43 am I just finished watching this drama yesterday. It was damn amazing. Hands up to Jisung, great actor. Not only him. Everybody was amazing. Actually I was the one who started watching this drama. However, I was very busy lately. My mom couldn't take her eyes off the drama. lol. She really loved it. The last episode I watched was ep 7 at that time but she was already watching ep 16. LOL. btw, genius director, amazing actors and actress. <3 <3 <3 . So much love!!

Scarlet Sep 25 2018 8:17 am hands up to ji sung,great actor

Bảo Bảo Sep 08 2018 10:18 pm 100/100 one of the best k-drama i've ever seen

Jean Sep 03 2018 11:34 pm Hands down the best Kdrama I've ever seen. I've mostly watched the cheesy romance ones so far with the mediocre acting, but this was a whole other level. The acting was great, the character development was amazing, and the story was just AH. If you are looking for your next Kdrama to binge, Stop What You Are Doing and Watch It Right Now. You will not regret it. (Be warned though- it's dark).??

sher Jul 22 2018 4:51 am really amazing drama! finished it in 2 days! no regrets!

mbuh aku sopo Jul 16 2018 11:34 pm The Best Korean Drama!!!!

ARMYtina Jun 01 2018 7:09 am Finished this in 2 days and 1 night!!! It's just soooo goood, there are no dull moments. Every scene makes you feel the thrill. There are moments where you laugh and cry at the same. This drama really deserved their awards! Ji Sung is an excellent actor!?

Hyac May 31 2018 8:56 pm Excellent drama I ever watched!! Daebak to cast team! <3 <3 <3

badiya May 01 2018 2:02 pm just finished the drama, and it was..............deaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabaaaaaaaaaaaaak "secret forest" & THIS one are literaly the BESSSSSSST dramas i have ever seeeeeeen in my lifeeeeeeeeeeee , :'( i cried like hellllllllll, yuri was amazing and uri geamsanim was perfect, the cast was perfect and omg! i need a second season :'( :'( :'( plzzzzz

Truly true Apr 16 2018 8:48 pm Wooowww, this drama was amazing and you know it’s amazing if a drama makes you feel all sorts of emotions. If this drama made you angry then that means the director did a good job in making this drama and making you angry. Mannn, I was just admiring the plot and how the events unfolded like wooooww, words cannot explain the experience I had while watching this drama, I totally recommend it. I finished this drama in 2-3 days ??

Andrea Apr 11 2018 2:47 am Whenever I watched movies or series, I don't put comments online because I am lazy and I feel it's overrating. But not this time. I really recommend this one because "Defendant" is really amazing. The whole story is mindblowing. There are no idle moments. And all characters especially Ji Sung gave justice to their roles. You, the one reading this, please watch it. You'll never regret I promise. ?

Melly Mar 30 2018 3:12 pm This drama is mind blowing no wonder the rating is so high jisung ur acting omg u deserve z grand prize love u jisung oppa

ks Mar 11 2018 8:42 am i think this drama just copy paste from Prison Break american drama series.. They just change few things like the murder case. but basically they are similar. And both of them are very good. You guys should watch american version too.

Lu Ran Mar 01 2018 7:11 pm Park Jung-Woo!!! Superb performance like always!

Lee Seohwa Feb 27 2018 10:08 am The top recommned drama of 2017!! Who cares about no romance, not all romance has to be top Korean film! This one is good too!

So Wo Feb 02 2018 7:13 pm While the drama itself is pretty good, good acting etc...when it comes to logic/writing this is where it falls short and makes me scream at my screen. I won't spoil but certain things can't happen without raising OBVIOUS suspicion. And like some other comments have said- is koreans justice system and prison system THAT CORRUPTED??? You would think they would have federal bureau on their back for corruption. If you can put aside these really stupid parts it is enjoyable as the main cast is fun and u want to see how it ends..but I will criticize that they didn't have enough consultants on this show because those details make this facepalm inducing. Also there are a lot of character inconsistencies and that is all on the writing.

Ely Jan 30 2018 12:20 pm One of the best drama!?

AJ Jan 21 2018 6:17 am Ji Sung, one of SK’s greatest actors, leads a superb cast in an award-winning Drama with complex plot lines, multiple themes, and an appropriate closure. There are some flaws, as in any production of this magnitude, but they are in the writing, never in the acting or directing; and they do not prevent thorough engagement and enjoyment. And the side plot of Ji Sung’s character and his relationship with his daughter is a sweet joy.

Mona Dec 17 2017 1:31 pm I was quite curious about Kim Suk we didnt get to know why would he be min ho's dog. Also what about eun hye's father and miryang's story why he did take the blame what happened exactly (did I miss something?) Anyways this is one of my all time favorites dramas! It got me crying so many times, its a hard drama. Since I dont really like cheesy rom com dramas this one is perfect! The plot was really good and the acting was just awesome! Ha Yeon ah is so young but so talented im speechless! Ji Sung and Ki Joon made the drama the way its is! Kudos to the team, great job!

a male viewer Dec 17 2017 1:39 am One of the better KDramas that I've seen. The story flows nicely, and although it's a succession of incredibly unlikely outcomes, it still feels like the events are unfolding organically. In that sense it is reminiscent of Breaking Bad. The pacing is good, there are very few moments of boredom. This is enabled by the large cast of varied and lovable characters that are for the most part well acted. There is comic relief a plenty, which is great. Another strong point is there is no obligatory forced romance to detract from the good stuff. Soundtrack and directing are on point, bringing you a good experience from beginning to end.

Of course, it still has its flaws, mainly from a writing standpoint. The story is predictable, there are numerous plot contrivances, and there are some problems with certain characters. To start, Park Jon Woo's character shows some inconsistencies. During his prison stay he oscillates seamlessly between perfect lucidity and near-insanity and it's a bit bizarre. Ji Sung is trying his best herewith a very intense, sometimes over the top performance, so i really don't think it's his fault. Our villain Cha Min Ho is also extremely boring, with no moral greyness what-so-ever. A guy who was written exclusively to be hated, with a very pathetic excuse for a backstory. You also can't escape the tired "rich corrupt guys can get away with anything" nonsense that is rampant in so many of their television shows.

But nevermind those small imperfections, this is still the cream of the crop as far as KDramas go. Give it a try!

Monster Nov 19 2017 6:40 am This drama is Uncannily brilliant!! The story line and cast took it to an unbelievable level of awesomeness! And Ji Sung! He keeps proving that he is the best korean actor in the modern kdrama world!

F.I Oct 29 2017 9:00 am I got a feeling that Ji sung or Uhm Ki joon will win a daesang this year since this drama is the last drama that got highest ratings in 2017(until end of Oct) . I hope they win the awards because they deserve it! I like how Ji sung acted like he screamed a lot throughout the drama and how uhm ki joon being a really psychopath. even though the inmate cells actors were not top actors, they did a good job in this drama. being ji sung's fan after watching save the last dance for me and the rest of his daebak dramas.

Whaddup Oct 06 2017 7:25 pm I swear, this drama pissed me off the most. The storyline/plot was so slow, and its sooooo irritating when justice is not served. Like Jung Woo had so many chances to get things right, but he wasn't communicating with people correctly! And seriously, is the Korean Justice system that bad? jesus! I was also hoping that Yuri would have a more stronger role throughout the drama - but her character stopped shining after mid episodes, which was disappointing... I lost interest in this drama - because VOICE K drama was also airing at the same time - and honestly VOICE was so much better because justice was served and cases got solved - and it wasn't so irritating and slow as this drama. I mean, the actors here are superb, but the storyline was so irritating

Anonymous Oct 04 2017 9:16 am Best drama so far in 2017.. Really great with all the cast and the content..ji sung really deserve daesang for his performance here. There is no boring scene for all the episodes. Big kudos to all the team from writer, director and casts.

uj baby Sep 25 2017 4:36 am This is one of the best kdramas this year. Fantastic casts. Ji Sung and Uhm ki Joon deserve an award for this drama.

Tokio Aug 13 2017 4:58 am This is the kind of drama that makes you curious how it will end yet in the final episodes you don't want it to end.

tim65 Aug 12 2017 10:13 pm i just started watching drama recently, there are a lot of good dramas and this one is one of them. Ji sung and uhm ki joon did such amazing job, this is the most memorable role that i've ever seen from uhm ki joon, hope to see more from him, ji sung leave a pretty good impression, too. the suspense is just killing me each episode, i was on edge the entire time watching this drama. this drama was criticized for too many twists and turns to keep the viewers hooked, and matter of fact i was hooked. it's good to have a few twists and turns but when there are too many then it's kinda dragging the show much longer, in my opinion this drama should ended at around 15-16 episodes. in all, this is a good drama with solid storyline and good acting, they all did their part very well.

Soulgeass Aug 09 2017 1:45 am I really like those real-life references in The Defendant! For example, the prison inmates couldn't stop singing to Twice. The fact that Cha Min Ho pointed out that he used to be a musical actor (before he acted out the scene of killing Jeong Woo's family in the cell) when in fact Uhm Ki Joon actually is in real-life! Not to mention the product placements that most people find annoying haha - yes, I'm talking about Subway and Chevrolet ;)

Janice Aug 01 2017 7:36 am Love it. Ji Sung acting is super power yoo

Googley Jul 25 2017 5:33 pm In fairness to all the cast, they all acted extremely well! More than ji sung, cha min ho and cha sun ho acted correctly to their character; what surprised me more is that the man behind is just a single actor, yet made me feel that min and sun is completely two differing characters. Ha Yeon and Ji Sung also managed to characterize a great family relationship in the show. 10/10

Lololo Jul 14 2017 10:03 am Somehow our jisung once again make a good acting. Really love him since secret love and always follow his drama start from then. Need to see he to act with his wife lee bo young. Pleaseee

Lydia Laatimosa Jul 13 2017 9:43 am Best legal drama. I truly appreciate it. The characters know their respective roles.

deliza Jul 09 2017 8:08 pm this is the best legal/suapense drama i have ever watched!!! every episode is so intense! breath taking!!! Ji sung is such a great actor?????? i always admire his acting skill?????? hoping for another best actor award for ji sung...sure win??????

Karisma Jul 09 2017 5:04 am Im currently on Episode 4 and it's just getting better and better. I always applaud Ji Sung's acting as he portrays his character. He is such a very outstanding actor. I cannot believe I am only watching this now. I should've watched this sooner. If anyone who's doubting this series, DONT! Just watch it. Be amazed on every single episode.

Nelriz Jul 04 2017 9:58 pm Greatest drama ive ever watched..scenes are breath taking, heartfelt, and feel so amazed will all the actors..ji sung, uhm ki joon, oh Chang suk, kim min suk and shin rin ah must give an standing ovassion and a best awards.. They are all amazing...more projects to all of them..congrats prosecutor!!

Nadine Jun 26 2017 2:29 am Best drama, i'll give A+++. The cast are all great specially Ji Sung and Ki Jun.no love story involve but you will be hook until the end.

Maryan Jun 23 2017 11:34 am One of the best kdramas ever. It is like "pure love/49 days" which does not need a love story to keep the viewers watching. ❤

jestine29 Jun 18 2017 6:29 am only 90%? something as great as this drama deserves a whooping 95%!

Annabell Perez Jun 15 2017 5:56 am Wow this kdrama was awesome! All actors are great especially Um Ki-joon aka Cha Min Ho. I give them 100% excellent!

zaza Jun 12 2017 1:33 pm @Cheonsa is the any thrill/crime/detective genre kdrama like defendant drama? the one that doesnt have love story? I really like this kind of drama. it makes me feel like a detective when I make my own consumption/judging/prosecution while watching it. hohoho

Bridget Jun 03 2017 6:38 am Wooow, this is the best thriller drama I've ever watched. The cast and the acting were so good. We want more of these dramas. Every episode, every scene of this drama was breathtaking. I loved the relationship between Park Jeong Woo and her daughter. Congratulations to the actors and producers

Angie cayme gandia May 28 2017 5:28 am This Kdrama is really breath taking... The cast are all very good, especially the lead actor. Keep up the good work Mr. Ji Sung!!! ? God bless you! ??

Cheonsa May 25 2017 8:05 am THIS drama is a 101% great drama that I have watched in my entire life..I have always love watching thrill/crime/detective genres...I reaaalllyy love the chemistry between jung woo and chul sik..i like how min ho plaayed that villain part..he really made me hate his character and the part that i'll always look back is the ep 17 where chul sik punished kim suk using that truck..that scene totally got rofl

Lisa May 22 2017 9:08 am Loved every single minute of this drama. Brilliant acting from the whole cast especially Ji Sung and Uhm ki Joon and Shin rin ah. Great chemistry between the whole cast from bromance (prison buddies) to family with none of the romantic fluff usually found in kdramas. Can't wait to see the next drama from Ji Sung!

Arif se. May 19 2017 7:40 am Finally i have finished to watch Ji sung latest drama and i have to say that it's really amazing like always. I really like this kind of drama where kissing scene is not as the first point of drama. The story line is cool. But, i a little bit dissapointed with the ending, i want to see the bad guy (cha min ho) get killed. The moment where i cried and felt so sad was when ha yeon met her grandma inside the church.. Hope never disseapears, the truth will reveal and God will always in good people side.

Rais May 04 2017 11:43 pm Yeah .. I Prefer Like Defendant than Violent Prosecutor As Well ... Cause The Stories in Jail was Really Funny ... And So Much Factor Increase The Plot .. This Was Really Awesome Drama ... :D

jestine29 May 02 2017 7:44 pm @Rais..I have seen Violent Prosecutor, yeah it's similar in a way that they are both prosecutors and framed for a murder they didn't commit..but as far as the story goes I like Defendant a million miles better. It is beautiful and carefully written, no loopholes.

Rais May 02 2017 12:19 pm This Series Adapted from MOvies Violent Prosecutors Right...

Minami Apr 26 2017 11:44 pm Such a wonderful drama with superb actor! Hope to see more ji sung after this.

Zima Apr 26 2017 3:00 pm Super drama! I like Ji Sung so much and all members of this drama.

Emmanuel Mfinanga Apr 22 2017 4:30 pm I like this move mwaaaa mwaaa mwaaa i really really like it

ji sung fan Apr 21 2017 4:55 am cha min ho is cool?...and how can even think about hating park jeong woo

ajejele Apr 19 2017 5:09 am Cha min-ho is so cool. i dont know why it makes me hate Park Jeong-woo.

John R. Apr 18 2017 2:53 am It was an awesome drama!! What a great way to start 2017!! Kudos to Ji-sung for his outstanding role!! I am sure that he'll get a huge award at the end of the year!! I am in the island of Oahu (Hawaii), and surprisingly, I suddenly noticed on Ji-sung's IG page that he was in Waikiki just enjoying his vacation!! He also made a tour to Turtle Bay, and according to his fans' IG accounts, he has been to Ala Moana and Whole Foods Market in Kahala. Because of this, I just wanted to meet and greet him so bad!! (But then again ... where would he go next??)

Mokona Apr 16 2017 4:08 am @ Diane, about Subway, I totally agree with you: "No, it is not "product placement", nor "just advertising" when the settings, lines of the drama, background logos and subway sandwiches are constantly thrown in your face. This American fast-food giant is obviously paying Big Money to force Korean writers and actors to dance to their tune, and I find it disgusting." Yes, this Subway invasion is too much and indeed disgusting. It has been going on since 2014 at least. Really unsufferable.

Jasmine Apr 12 2017 6:03 pm In this superb drama, Ji Sung has proved that interesting drama does not always need romance scene....

I hope Ji Sung's baby would be appeared in The Return of Superman (KBS)

Merdeka Indonesiaaaa!!

Theant Apr 12 2017 5:02 pm This drama makes me think of shawshank redemption movie

Dreamhigh Apr 09 2017 4:04 pm excellent drama, love it! Ji Sung never failed in any his drama

Pretty Lai Apr 09 2017 7:37 am Excellent Drama! mind blowing...

Caridee Apr 09 2017 6:54 am One of the BEST Korean dramas I have ever watched. I have been watching K drama since I was 6 and this is truly one of the best. Ji Sung never fails to impress me. There are a lot of new faces in this show, but they definitely outdone themselves in their own characters respectively. I love this show so much. Would recommend this show to anyone who loves melodrama :) Hoping for more from Ji Sung after this show!!!

Mwakyusa Apr 08 2017 2:30 pm I think this drama it's not end yet. So which day we may continue to get the future and End of this Story?

sand Apr 03 2017 6:30 am a must watch drama. highly recommended

kay Apr 01 2017 3:18 pm Love this drama ! But why is there no full album of various artists released yet?

jal-ja Mar 31 2017 4:01 am ji sung never fails me with his acting. somewhat, this plot drama is similar with 'god's gift 14 days' where is lee boo young(ji sung's wife) lead the role. plot its all about parents trying to save their children. such a mind-blowing and heart-whelming drama. this spouse are totally good in acting!

highly recommended everyone to watch this! even my mom love this drama too!

ARJHEN Mar 29 2017 3:00 am Ji Sung is the Best! Amazing Drama!

Pat Mar 29 2017 12:21 am The amazing plot with amazing acting, especially Jisung This drama is the best! no cheesy stuff. Highly recommended!!

Little HoneyBee Mar 28 2017 7:14 am daebak!! highly recommended. good drama for me!!! It take 3 day for me to finished this drama..Really daebak!!!

nothing Mar 28 2017 6:25 am What I don't like here is the bodyguard of Cha Min Ho. Every scene, he was there killing someone..like he killed SeungKyu in the prison. Why he had access in the prison? Prison must be strict. But i love this much. Ji Sung is good actor. This must be seen by the Kdrama fanatic. Kudos

Jenjennie Mar 27 2017 8:47 pm Gread drama with the absolute plot. The character was great too. Ji Sung, Uhm Ki Joon, Kwon Yuri, Kim Min Suk, Our cute little girl shin rin ah, etc. They did a great job. Defendant season 2 pleasee

Gizibe Mar 27 2017 8:27 am Pros:This drama is a must watch.Ji sung reaches perfection, and the fact that i fell in love with Uhm kijoon as Cha minho makes me doubt my sanity ? Con: It would have been perfect if the ending was at 51:10.... everything after was not korean, but american style... ?

JR Mar 27 2017 5:02 am this drama is so damn great!! Ji Sung really nailed it!

Fan Mar 27 2017 4:51 am This is an amazing drama. hopefully now Ji sung will reach the highest paid actors list.놀라운 드라마

Diane Mar 27 2017 12:51 am Min-ho says"What can't I do with money and power in Korea?" I think SBS and the whole Korean drama industry should be asking themselves this question. This amazing drama was totally ruined for me by the incessant and imbedded Subway advertising. No, it is not "product placement", nor "just advertising" when the settings, lines of the drama, background logos and subway sandwiches are constantly thrown in your face. This American fast-food giant is obviously paying Big Money to force Korean writers and actors to dance to their tune, and I find it disgusting.

DiJay Mar 26 2017 2:12 am Yes! An amazing drama indeed! Best crime drama i have ever seen.. Ji Sung never failed to amaze me with his acting skills. Ive watched all of his dramas and by far this is the best! Thanks to the writer, it was truly a thrilling ride from start to finish.. Great plot and great twists. This drama is recommended 100%!!!!!

Mblaq-MadTown ^^ Mar 25 2017 7:14 pm amazing drama 200% recommended

Aya Mar 25 2017 9:14 am Two thumbs for the team....It's great drama. Hope could be the winner for Korean drama award. Congratulations for Ji Sung for become a real father through this drama, love you.

Mimz Mar 25 2017 5:39 am Love the chemistry btn ji sung & uhm ki joon....a great drama...one amongst d dramas I culdn afford to miss even in my tight schedules...d father daughter love is portentous...this drama deserves alot of awards...

Tnx defendant team for a mind-blowing drama

sakiminie Mar 25 2017 4:14 am good drama after dots. really love this drama .. jisung is the best.

pondering stranger Mar 24 2017 7:16 pm One of the best drama ive ever watch. It always keeps me on the edge, giving me a fearful factor, this is one of the best drama of jisung. This deserve high rating, deserves awards fro cha min ho character no boring moment though theres no romantic stories i love the father daughter relationship. All the actor and a behind the scene staff deserves all our praises for them. *clap, clap, clap

There is one thing that didnt answers my curiosity.. When and why jung wo had a memory lost after three days after the murder. Ive waited for that also why did they did not used the other conversation at interogation room in ep 14 i think this only are the loopholes in this drama the rest is awesome and great

I am rooting for jisung and boyung to be together in the future for drama

Hope jisung read our comments here.. Love you and your wife lee bo yong. (Philippines)

kurage Mar 24 2017 2:35 pm I really love this drama where the emphasis is on the love between father and daughter rather than love between man and woman. So to answer @zaho question... there's no romantic kissing scene. If you enjoy this drama, try watching Two Weeks. The theme is pretty similar where the father is wrongly accused and trying to save his daughter, but the plot is different of course. Ji Sung always nails his characters so well that all his dramas are in my must-watch list.

zaho Mar 24 2017 11:51 am I want to know. is there any kiss scene in this drama? someone please tell me.

vitik2011 Mar 24 2017 10:56 am So, i've been watching this drama (Defendant) from January, and it finally came to its end earlier this week. I don't think there'd be a better drama than this one. The plot, including the twists, the actors' and actresses' unbeatable acting skills; i couldn't find any lacks. This is the best Korean drama I've watched. It's unlike any other cheesy dramas which only accentuate shallow love stories. This drama delivers so many life lessons. I will definitely miss this drama. There will be nothing to be waited for every week. I'm not exaggerating this matter, you'd understand once you've watched it.

Oppa Mar 24 2017 1:54 am Will miss this drama..hope Lee Bo young drama can make me move on from defendant syndrome.

Anonymous Mar 24 2017 1:53 am Congratulations team defendant for deliver such a great drama with a great storyline.. Really make my Tuesday and Wednesday feel very content.. Really proud with jisung performance.. Hope he wins a daesang for sbs awards this year.

Malditang Bugay Mar 23 2017 9:56 pm The first episodes of this show were addicting, and got me hooked immediately. It is emotional, exciting, thrilling, mysterious and intriguing. I can see myself re-watching it in the future. There was never one time where I felt that the plot was dragging. The friendship that was built inside the cell was so precious. You’ll definitely love them. It reminds me of Miracle in Cell No. 7 all of a sudden.

This is a must-watch.

Nothing Mar 23 2017 7:05 am This drama deserves to be won as best drama ever. Congrats! Ji Sung is best actor. All casts are good. Kudos

Emmanuel loon Mar 23 2017 5:19 am Congratulations in advance for winning 2017 grand award...u deserve it...

TippyTee Mar 22 2017 5:24 pm Brilliantly written, unique plot and the way things run every episode is just great! I have never seen a Kdrama with no loopholes! Kudos to the writer of this drama I sure hope they can maybe make another one as brilliant as this show. This show is so good like really, really good better than Hollywood I would say! Ji Sung is such a great actor I can feel his pain! All the actors have portrayed their character with such drive and passion it is so real! This drama should be a 12/10!

mue Mar 22 2017 2:59 pm this is really really best drama for these days. All korean dramas about rich man poor girl or rich girl poor man, family legacy fights etc.. but this one has a uniqe story..by the way I love historical dramas best. Defedant deserve every each trophy, prize... I hope Ji Sung can win the grand prize. He is the best actor. his acting too perfect too real. Congratulations all the cast and crew for the amazing work.

hidayah Mar 22 2017 10:11 am when I really love a drama, I hope that it's rating will be high. and thatsssss it! It deserve to reach 30% ??

Nat Mar 22 2017 8:48 am WOW. This drama is amazing, makes you cry your eyes out one minute and laugh the next. All characters are well developed. I really, truly enjoyed this drama. Ji Sung is just outstanding in everything he does, but I think this was his best work yet. I always cried along with him. Shin Rin-Ah has a bright future ahead of her. She is a great actress for her age. I would recommend this drama 100% and I will be watching it again and again for years to come. Congratulations to all the cast and crew for the amazing work. I hope you guys get all the awards.

r3inst4r Mar 22 2017 8:02 am It's amazing drama...It made me addictive to watch it. I could watch some epsdes in one night.. hopefully Ji sung can get many awards this year. he is the one and only my favorite actor..I've watched his dramas : Swallow the Sun, New Heart, Save the last dance for me, Royal Family, protect the boss, The Great Seer, Secret Love, Kill me Heal me and Innocent Defendant.He always challanges himself to get different roles. not like others actor like Lee Min Ho..he took the same roles in his drama.. the cool and rich man...

Congratulation to Defendant's Team....next Whisper.. Ji sung's wife.. Lee Bo young...Best couple

atika Mar 22 2017 6:09 am daesang n drama of the year!!!

lovely maera Mar 22 2017 5:33 am Best Drama In The World. No One Can Fight This Drama.........

Migthy Thor Mar 22 2017 4:50 am 1. Congratulations to the entire cast, crew, staff and production of Defendant! You did a fantastic job! 2. Things I really enjoyed: is the character of "i love you baby" = Optimus Prime and the antics of the four inmates = Bangjang, Milyang, Moongchi and Wooruk. 3. The great performance of Shin Rin-Ah = such a talented young girl. 4. The reunion of the three artists from the descendants of the sun = Kim Min-Suk, Jo Jae-Yun and Seo Jung-Yeon.

For me the fulcrum of this drama lies in the character of Na Yeon-Hee, had she not betrayed Cha Young-Woon, Park Jung-Woo would never be able to touch Cha Min-Ho, then the ultimate betrayal of Na Yeon-Hee was when she stood to be a witness...

GREAT crime, suspense, action, fun, thrilling drama! Highly recommended to ALL \^0^/

Nephew*Jisung :) Mar 21 2017 11:48 pm I strongly agree with you all, highly recommended. Must watch!! All the cast, I'm going to miss and love you. You're worthy of the award of this hard work .

Andrea Mar 21 2017 11:25 pm Ji Sung & Uhm Ki Joon own the show. They nailed it!

Hwasadan Mar 21 2017 10:50 pm This is a masterpiece! Highly recommended!

Ji Sung definitely deserves Daesang! Never fails to deliver such an emotional and phenomenal acting. The drama itself likewise deserves Drama of the Year award! I know it's too early to conclude that it's the best, but it is absolutely hard to surpass this groundbreaking series. Indeed the best crime-suspense-thriller drama, by far! Way better than Goblin, Legend of the Blue Sea and other overrated Dramas. Sky-rocketed ratings are well deserved. Great job!

Araa Mar 21 2017 9:36 pm Highly recommended!! All the casts and story is just perfect.

yyayay Mar 21 2017 8:27 pm If you are looking to watch a new drama will recommend this drama 100/10 !! it has a great plot line with great actors!

heynandho Mar 21 2017 7:20 pm Ji Sung & Uhm Ki-Joon really deserve a daesang

marrissa Mar 21 2017 6:06 pm Resounding applause for this Kdrama, everything is perfect, from the cast up to the storyline, Ji Sung is really a good actor, as well as Um Ki Joon the villain, and most importantly Shin Rin _Ah the child actress that captivates the viewers hearts. I presume that Ji Sung will win on Daesang Awards and any other award-giving bodies at Seoul Korea next year! kudos to all the staff and credit to the writer and director, but most especially thanks a lot SBS for giving us a very awesome drama and groping for another one! I'm one of your followers here from the Phils.

Poko Mar 21 2017 4:47 pm Loved this drama and I truly will miss it. I loved how it was a mystery crime drama but they added the light hearted tone to it too. Those were the nicest prison mates ever. This was so much better than Voice.

Lidya Mar 21 2017 6:12 am The rating is increasing like crazy.. Keep it up until the last episode, this drama deserve it!!

Fannie Mar 21 2017 4:27 am Jung-woo starring eyes really killing me. His stares telling us, he not afraid anything and firms on his decisions. This year, I think Ji-sung win the Daesang award. He's the best Korean actor performance either in comedian or thrilling dramas. He really can act and all his dramas are convincing. Uhm Ki-joon is also another excellent actor in this drama. His expressions and smiles is so evil make you want to smash him. He is the only villain who doesn't feel sorry or regrets on what he did wrongs? Yet, we as viewers feel sympathy and pity of him of his circumstances. Although he had lunatic states but he so protective to the one he loved. His greedy father doesn't care for him until he progressed into monster state. I really don't hate him but feel sorry for him, all this years, he been used by his father as company status.

Park Ha Mar 21 2017 1:19 am Hope in the last episode "Defendant" hit a high of 30%, this is the best drama of the year according to me. Proud of the Director,Writer'nim and also Ji Sung. Well done!

Tp Mar 20 2017 8:46 pm Best korean drama ever! ??????

HV Mar 20 2017 4:28 pm I so so so want to watch the last 2 episodes this week and at the same time I so so so don't want too. It is so good that I don't want it to end. Now that Voice is over as well as Defendant; I literally feel sad. Best korean dramas of 2017, hands down. Arrogant American shows, I think it is about time to learn filmatography from the Koreans

Ccyeung Mar 20 2017 12:31 pm The best damn crime drama I ever watched . All involved deserves grand price . This is what we supposed to call A+ brilliant production.

Puppy Love Mar 19 2017 8:13 pm Ji Sung should get Dae Sang Award for his role in this drama...so brilliant acting...

Mitsuzia Mar 18 2017 11:53 pm This drama is absolutely amazing. at first it was like a puzzle, you don't have any idea about what's going on, why jung woo do that and became a defendant, why min ho became a big jerk, where's ha yoon, etc. thank's to Um ki joon, his act as min ho and seung ho are incredible. I hate min ho so bad, but I can't deny I was amazed with his strategy too. in the end I can't hate him cz of ki joon's face (lol). Kim seok char also precious, min ho's plan wouldn't run smoothly w/o him. man, I hope this drama wouldn't end at eps 18, l love it so much... I hope ki joon not die here *slapmaface*

채영 Mar 18 2017 11:21 pm Jisung's acting never fail to disappoint. Thrilling & intense story plot drama without romance. I'm euphoric that they extend 2 more episodes. Anticipating Minho the villain getting locked behind bars for his own actions. It's gonna be exciting (⁎⁍̴̛ᴗ⁍̴̛⁎)

Gina Mar 18 2017 6:51 pm Yet another drama involving "memory loss..." not too bad though, entertaining.

Elaine Mar 17 2017 7:43 pm Wow!!!! I am so glad they added 2 more episodes, it is getting really intense.As usual Ji Sung is the best in his acting skills.

jestine29 Mar 17 2017 6:46 pm @heynandho If Joon Hyuk is the real father of Ha Yeon why would he let his daughter be in danger? He knows Cha Min Ho is a lunatic.

Eira Helmy Mar 17 2017 3:33 am The best drama for crime and investigation. It's just so addictive and can't wait for the ending. Cha Min Ho ... evil you! Haha .... May all of the cellmates be reunited again at the outside world. Aaah, hurry up Tuesday.

Chantel Mar 16 2017 6:38 pm This is the best crime kdrmama Ive seen. The high ratings this drama gets is well deseved

Cherry Mar 16 2017 8:27 am OMG this drama is amazing cant wait for the last 2 episodes definitely the best drama of 2017. Ji Sung and Uhm Ki Joon need all of the awards just throw them got damn awards at them already. BEST Lead Actor, Supporting Actors, Best Bad Guy we all love to hate just an awesome package all of the actors are doing a great job. BEST Actress for our baby Ha-Yeon played by Shin Rin-Ah she is outshining ALL of the female actresses this baby girl at 8 yrs old is a Powerful little superstar looking forward to her career.

reallyLOL Mar 16 2017 6:49 am @heynandho Your thoughts are totally out of the plot of the entire series. That will never gonna happen.

heynandho Mar 16 2017 3:14 am Why i got the feeling that Ha Yeon isn't Jeong Woo's daughter, but Joon Hyuk? :o

Alex Mar 15 2017 7:34 am Great Drama Ji Sung really great Cant wait next episode

Weedee Mar 15 2017 6:24 am Jjang!! Jisung ahjussi is a great actor..love this drama so much. Recommended!!!

aniesi Mar 15 2017 5:33 am Great Drama. Ji Sung is really a great actor.

Mitch Mar 15 2017 4:21 am Very Nice episodes.. Very intense :D Me and my husband are following it weekly here in Norway :)

Yeung Mar 15 2017 12:10 am This is by far, the best crime drama I ever watched . I love the whole cast. They deserve the best rating. It's masterpiece. 2 more episodes to go. I will miss this once it's over. ?❤️❤️. 5 stars all the way.

Sansan Mar 14 2017 8:04 pm A good master piece work from the script writer, the director, actor/actress and all crews. Although some parts of the story seem a little slow yet it isn't bore at all because it make you think what are the next smart moves would be taken by jung woo and cha min hoo. Both parties are smart in dealing the situation, (a win-loose situation). I feel like i'm watching the movie 'catch me if you can'. Thumb up!..

Ma teresa Mar 14 2017 9:39 am Goshboom and feeling scared mo spechaly for the family of defendant huhuhu. .. I olwys watch dis and wish its monday and tuesday again so i cant w8 and to hve such happy ending for them. Both cha min ho and jung woo best actor all of them is great .. Wish u al d best frm philipines .. ???

yully Mar 13 2017 9:57 pm seong kyu oppa... :'( episode 15 = sad episode. :(

MAYbel Mar 13 2017 9:30 pm All actors are really good at where they have to act like the real ones that do be appreciated , even Cha Min-Ho, whom no one does notice why he became a bad guy because of his father, who ever treats him most-likely as a stupid son that's really pity regardless what he did to others.

jestine29 Mar 13 2017 4:52 pm DEFENDANT deserves a 100% rating! This drama is so beautiful and realistic..it's hurting my heart whenever Ji Sung cries LOL. This is a real Masterpiece! Very intense, very dramatic just beautiful! I have never seen a Kdrama that really has me at the edge of my seat! No boring episode like ever! Every single episode has content and perfection!

ji sung fan Mar 11 2017 11:45 am he deserve an grand prize for this role . !! i could feel his pain i almost during all episodes cried. and when he cried i couldnt stop the tears. omg this drama is just to awsome...ji sung is awsome!!

mita Mar 10 2017 9:06 pm I like it ?

eina Mar 10 2017 7:14 pm really nice story.. really touching.. can feel how deep love between father and daughter.. i give 110 star..

mee Mar 10 2017 3:09 am hope they add 2 more special episode for story telling about Jung Woo's cellmate, backround, past or whatever. Kinda special spinoff for all the Jung Woo's cellmate

Andrea Mar 09 2017 7:13 pm What could it be if the detectives who investigated this murder case are Detective Lee Jae Han, Cha Soo Yun and Park Hae Young and the prosecutor is Prosecutor Park (Ji Sung) himself, but the defendant’s counsel is Atty. Jang Hye Sung (Lee Bo Young), and the errand boy who do all sort of things for Cha Min Ho is healer. Daebak!!! And the defendant is…

Sally Mar 09 2017 1:59 pm I really love Jisung. Superb, awesome actor. I really like all his dramas specially kill me heal me and defendant. I'm a korean drama fan but so far this (defendant) is the best for me. Can't wait to see his next drama after defendant. I'm expecting this year end Jisung will get grand award. He is the best actor in Korea.

MC Mar 09 2017 12:05 pm Thumps up for ji sung. He kept me in awe with his versatility in kill me heal me where he sank into one of the many characters with just a snap of fingers. And now with innocent defendant, he gave us a perfect 10 for his role that required such deep intensify emotion. I m looking forward that he'll gain a grand award for this role.

As for the flow of the story, I find it going toward slow, draggy n unrealistic. I understand that they want to keep us viewers to maximum anger towards the villain but it turned out superficial n shallow. There are times when fast thrilling scene slowed down by some emotion scene. I hope the director n his crew will be more sensitive on the logic. Otherwise the drama can turn out ridiculously to some extent.

mue Mar 09 2017 9:43 am this is awesomeness!

BA Mar 09 2017 9:00 am PTB also did 2 ep ext, and in that ext, they wrapped up the story nicely, albeit slowly. Sometimes the side characters storyline need closure as well, and I hope writernim does justice to those 2 extended ep. ?? Ji Sung Ssi. His gaze can speak volumes.

zell Mar 09 2017 8:28 am hope jisung get daesang on sbs award. he deserve to get it. may be jisung or lee young ae..

richadiana kartakusuma Mar 09 2017 6:50 am Ji Sung is never ever failed .... but Uhm Hyun Kyung shouldn't be part of the drama, why she is playing here she playing just like amatir (i do not like her)

Cute Mar 09 2017 4:40 am It's my first time to watch ji sung series, thumps up.. superb acting. He is one of the best korean actor.

mystique enim Mar 09 2017 12:29 am ji sung is really gifted in the art of acting...superb acting whether comedy or drama! i've watched most of your drama from all in, save the last dance, new heart, secret, kill me heal me, entertainer and even your movie confession... i really adore you! hope you can visit your fans here in the philippines...i want to see you in person...i really hope you'll get the daesang award this year for defendant...fighting!

Hana Kagume Mar 08 2017 10:08 pm 2 Thumbs up, Ji Sung should win for The Best Actor this year ?

Hayeon Mar 08 2017 9:30 am Look out the rating!! ?? This drama is really superb, although the story is a little bit slow, but every scene is so intense and make me wanting for more How can i wait one week for next ep! ??

Nidia Maulina Mar 08 2017 5:36 am I love this drama ?. Semua pemainnya sangat hebat. Saranghaeyo ?. Anyeonghaseo from Indonesia ?

Bouchra siroua Mar 07 2017 11:32 pm Will the retrial take 4 episodes?? I don't see what they extended and add two episodes! I mean there is nothing much to do now! He has the knife and his daughter is back! Cha minho is stuck in the prosecution with that fraud case! What else can happen in the next 4 episodes?

Mimi Mar 07 2017 10:18 pm OMG so intense... Must watch but I wish there will be a love story between Ji sung and kwon yuri

xxxi Mar 07 2017 9:32 pm Whoah.. Ji Sung is the best as always. First I watched this drama, its just remind me of Secret (2013). He did great job in there too. I am just glad to hear news that Defendant will get a lot of awards for actors and production team.. I hope it will be true.

And this drama is so high rated.. You must watched if you have a good taste..

glowmymind Mar 07 2017 8:20 pm EP 14 : ahh finally, Jeong woo and Ha Yeon gonna kick some ass!!

Kang Lee Mar 07 2017 11:33 am Good acting and story. But too dragging. Keep going round to prolong the episode. I hope it is not going to be more than 20 episode. I will loose interest to continue watching.

Some part of the drama can be unrealistic.

Latte Mar 07 2017 10:18 am That episode 15 though! Very good korean drama, good actors, good story! Salute to them!

Song Lady Mar 07 2017 10:06 am I feel like watching 2 hours movie in every single episode. Never get bored, very thrilling, such an incredible story line.

Rosa Mar 07 2017 8:00 am Realllyy a good dramaaa! you want to keep watching and you really get curious about whats going to happen, its intenseeeee really cant wait for ep 14. And Ji sungs acting is really amazing. He really gets you in the drama. This year defendant deserves to win best drama en the daesang to Ji sung!!

Dani - Bali Mar 07 2017 7:32 am I really love this drama, the actor do the best acting. Every see this drama, im affraid and like roller coaster. Best drama and actor???????????

Abu Mar 07 2017 3:57 am D*mn!! how can CMH got the daughter><

tirashine Mar 07 2017 12:48 am Amazing incredible. I honestly was not interested with the Defendant. because the genre, Drama, Law and Thriller. But after watching one by one episode I really liked it, made me very curious to see the next episode. I'm really impressed with Ji Sung oppa's struggle to find his daughter and clear his name of the murder charges. Besides, I really like to see the friendship between the holding cells, full of family and loyalty. In episode 13 looks reunion Shopping King Louie, Moongchi (Oh Dae-hwan) meets with his sister (Hwang Young Hee) when they seemingly funny scene. This drama worthy of give thumb and I hope this drama received many awards ?

Indonesian K-lover Mar 06 2017 10:28 pm Only 18 episodes....why dont you make it longer T.T

sandriangem Mar 06 2017 4:59 am I really love this drama,Jisung really good, I first saw him in save the last dance,I've been a fan of him since then.He is very good in this drama.I am amaze how he show his emotions especially when he misses his daughter. I know it will be more exciting and thrilling for the next few episodes.

Mariasam Mar 05 2017 11:41 pm I saw the story i really like..... his really want to solve and pay whos really guilty.....

Lee Seo Hwa Mar 05 2017 3:13 pm Please give me one spoiler.... There's no way Jung Woo would kill his own family, first lead never aren't to be evil though....... Did he really kill his wife and daughter? I bet he's wrongly accused! He has to be innocent, it make no sense that he kill his family! If there's evidence that he really did, it has to be fabricated! I believe Jung Woo would never kill Hayeon and Jisoo....

wefoundlove015 Mar 05 2017 12:44 pm i was really amaze with lead actor he never fail to amaze me with his acting skills moreover the storyline gets me hooked leaving me wanting for more hoping for more episodes pls thank u for making this kind of drama with love from philippines;)

채영 Mar 05 2017 8:40 am Commented here before & Jisung's acting is marvellous & oustanding as well. My heart was so close to leaping out of my chest when 3866 aka Jung Woo at ep 11-12 when he tried escaping istg i was so apprehensive that Jung Woo & his acquaintances. Every scenes were thrilling & nail biting for me. I'm so into this drama yet I've no one to spazz with & it's driving me to the edge ㅜㅡㅜ btw, does anyone know how to vote for this drama here at asianwiki? (⁎⁍̴̛ᴗ⁍̴̛⁎)

Miss M Mar 04 2017 1:34 pm this drama is must watch list for everyone, too good and the the lead ji sung alias 3866 ,I think no one would have done justice to the character like he did, too good in acting and I think all the characters were super good to their role, and lastly happy with the rating

Miss Mandy Mar 04 2017 1:33 pm this drama is must watch list for everyone, too good and the the lead ji sung alias 3866 ,I think no one would have done justice to the character like he did, too good in acting and I think all the characters were super good to their role, and lastly happy with the rating.

CLeO Mar 04 2017 12:27 pm OMG just realised Ji Sung's wife, Lee Bo Young, her drama will be replaced after 'Defendant' finsihes airing ^^ Can't wait, both are fantastic actors

kyutibogum Mar 04 2017 12:46 am Everytime 3866 try to figure out a way to escape, im the one who watch it is thrilled here. Omg be safe 3866!

Rae Mar 03 2017 12:40 am This is amazing! This is somewhat similar to prison break! 5/5

Trinity Mar 02 2017 10:40 am This drama is seriously stressing me out, when I already have enough stress.... But omg I just love it. I love these type of genres and finallyyyyy NO ROMANCE. But ep 11-12 was the most irritating. Park Jong Woo shouldve gotten treatment at the hospital first and then decide where to go from there. The damn woman attorney is useless! omg . Also, Sung Goo shouldve just gave Ha Yeon to the lady attorney or at least the damn police. Jesus, then we will at least know she is SAFE! Because, why would you leave your daughter to the person who abducted her in the first place? Only in Kdrama land would you do these things. my god. I'm so irritated... Justice just needs to be serve already

richadiana kartakusuma Mar 02 2017 10:33 am Ji sung

chia Mar 01 2017 8:15 pm Ji sung must gets daesang this year, he's really really great actor. I really love him. Defendant is the best drama, his role is so great, fightung ji sung ah

Bboo Mar 01 2017 6:09 pm Just give all awards to this drama already . The best ??????❤️️

mee Feb 28 2017 11:07 pm i love how every character has it own important role, not just an extra. Even Miryang (now i really want to know more about his past and all the inmate's). Really enjoy this drama, i just realize it will end soon. Glad they added 2 more episode.

KateKnight Feb 28 2017 10:42 pm Breath taking scenes, super exciting. I love Ji Sung, great actor! Can't wait for the next episode :) all the cast blends well with their characters. Kim Min-Suk is cute ;)

viji Feb 28 2017 9:07 pm Wow impressive! Ji Sung really suits his character with his acting skills very good performance indeed!

heeda Feb 28 2017 1:36 pm ji sung,well done !!u will be honored with defendant.

Young Feb 28 2017 1:24 am Cha min ho is such a jerk. I want to throw egg on him. The prison roommates of ji sung is so funny. Can't wait for the next episode

Bil Feb 27 2017 7:21 pm Someone please give him award!! Jisung the bomb!!!!!! and definitely cellmates goals hahah

Ha yeon Feb 27 2017 10:06 am Ji Sung oppa daebak... I love everything about the drama.... so much fun scene in the prison.. Their chemistry is so real... Cant wait to the next episode.... This is one of the best k drama i've ever watch.... Speechless...

Eien Feb 26 2017 9:46 pm I just happened to see the preview of this drama on One HD (Msia) starring Ji Sung. I have watched Ji Sung from The Entertainer and I find that his acting is very natural. So I decided to watch this drama because of him. Wow...after watching Episode 1, I keep wanting to watch the next episode. Every episode is very exciting and fully of mystery making me wanting to watch the next episode. The last drama that kept me hooked wanting to watch next next episode was Iris starring Lee Byung Hun. I think Ji Sung will receive some award this year too for this outstanding role!

Chekaii Feb 26 2017 5:10 pm I ❤️ Ji Sung. He is a very talented and versatile actor. This drama gave me the chill and heart thumping episodes to look forward to. The story and actors are really good. More power and looking forward to seeing more of Ji Sung when this drama ends ??? a looooong way to go but.... when you're into kdrama marathon everything seemed to end fast ????

Singapore Feb 26 2017 10:08 am I loved defendant , everything about it!

analyn Feb 25 2017 9:55 pm Jisung is such a great actor his acting is so intense. Done watching 10 episodes in just 2 days Cant wait to see episode 11 this drama is getting more exciting per episode

mistique enim Feb 25 2017 11:09 am i hope this time he will get the korean daesang award...

emmanuel Feb 25 2017 12:12 am this year sbs drama award daesang will go to jisung..100 percent sure

Jestine29 Feb 24 2017 8:36 pm Ji Sung is such a great actor that every single thing he does is very natural. The bread scene was heartbreaking and same time intense. I really wish that freakin' psycho is going to get what he wants. I will never accept his bullshit reasoning that he turned out like that because of his father. There is no excuse to kill a person not unless it was for defense or in dire situations. Defendant is a show stopper! The best Kdrama this 2017!

Yammy Feb 23 2017 2:00 pm This one suppose to be the best drama of the year.Park Jung Woo (Ji Sung) has a very good performance. #Defendant

Lidya Feb 23 2017 1:08 am @kawai totally agree with you. The bread scene is the most awesome and surprising scene so far ???

northerngirl Feb 22 2017 7:07 pm This dramas just does not disappoint! Gets better with each episode...

Kawai Feb 22 2017 10:46 am That bread scene really made me laugh. I don't know if i should pity Park Jung-Woo or what lol I just imagined the BTS of that scene, they must be trying so hard to keep their face straight or serious especially Ji Sung lol

But on a serious note, it must be hard for Jung Woo hearing that scene reenacted by Min HO, hearing how he killed JI Soo,wow, just wow, it really made me want to punch Min Ho's face so bad lol

I cant move on with the bread scene that was so funnny and sad at the same time lol

Diana Feb 22 2017 6:09 am Number one this year for best drama. All the characters in this drama are outstanding. Everyone should be watching DEFENDANT ?????❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

fatin izyan Feb 22 2017 5:38 am this drama is so amazing!! i can't wait fr the next episodee 10 why the world is very cruel on park jun woo? i cried watching this drama T^T great job!!! i give 9.8 out of 10

Hayeon Feb 22 2017 2:05 am This drama is really interesting. Definetely must watch!!

Juliet Feb 21 2017 10:30 pm Am so hooked of this drama very episode must watch soooo much interesting....

sophiagarcia/rannyfrancisco Feb 21 2017 3:44 am Ji Sung is an excellent actor. Love the drama, the storyline but it will not be the same if it were not for Ji Sung. The lines on his face, his eyes, everything about him tells what the character is going through.

Mimi Feb 20 2017 11:45 pm I love Defendant.... every episode is so interesting... must watch.

j Feb 20 2017 2:43 am they need to update the cast list minseok is way more important now id put him in top 10 and seok (villains sidekick) needs to be included too!

Tee Hee Feb 19 2017 11:19 am I thought I wouldn't be able to move on from Goblin, but after seeing the ratings from the first episode, I had to watch it! OMG it is so dark and twisty (which I LOVE BTW), and I am so glad I watched it when it first aired! This drama keeps me on the edge of my seat and I never get bored at all!!!

I just hope Jung Woo doesn't get together with anyone because his short screen-time relationship with Ji Soo and Ha Yeon is perfect and I'd hate to see that moved aside if he was coupled with Eun Hye. If there has to be a romance in this drama, Eun Hye would be great with Joon Hyuk hahahaha ^_^"

Jonny Feb 18 2017 7:47 am this drama is so lovely...kudus to the actors and directors.

Lilianih Feb 16 2017 6:25 pm This drama is exciting and keeps you wanting more. I love the main actors Ji Sung and Uhm Ki Joon. Je Sung's acting is exceptionally in this role. He Knows how to transmit every feeling and emotion, it very touchy. Also Ki Joon is super in his double role and his performance is overload with uniqueness. Both are wonderful and they keep me very closed to watch this drama. Great job!! I can't wait for the next episode.

Daebak Feb 16 2017 5:43 am Am i the only one that thought of Jisung's role (Ahn Yona) whenever i hear Him cry in this drama?? I just can't take it! Hahahahahhaaha!

mee Feb 15 2017 10:41 pm @Kawai @Debak. But he is wearing "blue" at that scene, mean that scene is his second try.

Bouchra Siroua Feb 15 2017 6:09 pm @deabak no no i think this scene will happen later when he will get transferred to another prison, because he was wearing the blue suit! if it was as you said he would have been wearing the brown suit !!1

Thea Feb 15 2017 3:51 pm Once again Ji Sung does a incredible job in this drama since Kill Me/Heal Me, outstanding and this drama keeps you on the edge of your seat not like some of those other dramas with the crazy mothers/money hungry people. Uhm Ki-Joon is also a good actor playing double.

Dreamhigh Feb 15 2017 11:25 am Ji Sung is a great actor, he never failed impress, I love this drama pretty much.

Kawai Feb 15 2017 9:43 am @Daebak, I think you're right! I remember that scene and wondering if that's will be the end or what, but I'm now certain that he tried to escape once and was hit by the car so he ended up losing his memory.

Daebak Feb 14 2017 11:36 pm I'm sure that jeong woo lost his memory when he was hit by the truck (same thing that hit the medical examiner) as you can see on the start of the first episode. Just like what ahjussi in the cell said when jeong woo tried to escape once before he lost his memory.

ara Feb 14 2017 10:09 pm each episode of this drama is always killing me. The story line is so daebaakk. can't want for the next episode..

gegeiffa Feb 14 2017 9:02 pm OMG... Iam alwayas can hardly wait next episode in each week... The first drama that hasn't bored me at all 'til 8 eposode... Bravo for all actors and actress and also crue this drama..... Hope not disapoint me til the end of show

innocentdefendant Feb 14 2017 8:29 pm Ji Sung never fails to impress!!!!!! This is a very promising series omg !!!!!! THE BEST

zh Feb 13 2017 5:48 pm This drama is briliant! The storyline & casts are amazing! Ep 7 gets 20.9% (AGB Nielsen) for rating, I hope the rating will increase for next episode

Nina Feb 13 2017 5:06 pm Soaddicted to this drama.. briliant storyline And superbcast!!!!

채영 Feb 13 2017 3:47 am I've been an avid follower of Asianwiki & it's my first time commenting here. You can see how miraculous DEFENDANT is that triggered me to comment albeit GOBLIN is equally superb. I'm the lazy type whom will never waste time to make a comment but this drama is too marvellous that I'll feel guilty if I don't leave any. The drama storyline, plot & casts wise are all outstanding that keep getting me drawn to it & intrigued. And damn it's Ji Sung; the actor whom I can't resist his acting bc his emotions he poured out is that mesmerising, it's surreal that makes me ponder if it's happening to him in real life which I know it's certainly not. Every episode contains intense mysteriousness that made me on pins and needles. Just when I have a slight ounce of hope that the evidence can salvage Jeong Woo, Minho, the villain is doing his role well to demolish it hence he gives me the urge to beat him up to a pulp (yes that's how repulsive & abhorrent his role in the drama is) after every episode, it makes me forlorn waiting for the impending episode on Monday; that explains how ADDICTIVE this drama is. ಥ_ಥ There's one thing I'm really inquisitive about, regarding Jeong Woo's amnesia, how on earth did he admitted to his crimes of murdering Ji Soo & Ha Yeon when I'm certain that he isn't the murderer? Anyway, I'm still keeping my fingers crossed that Ha Yeon is still alive somewhere. (⁎⁍̴̛ᴗ⁍̴̛⁎) okay, didn't expect myself to type this much but a fabulous drama deserves a long ass commenter like me lmao ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ

KS Feb 12 2017 10:38 pm Soooooooo addicted with this drama

mee Feb 11 2017 4:53 pm i think each person in the cell will play important part. There's no way the Director put Oh Dae Hwan just for unnecessary supporting role. Something mysterious about him and the Grandpa. Cha Min Ho said he was imprisoned for 15 years (before he killed his brother). I wonder for what reason? Maybe one of the inmate in Ji sung's cell involved.

Fan Feb 11 2017 12:13 am Tomorrow with you , Voice and defendant is worth watching. Love these dramas so much

Razat Feb 10 2017 6:48 am Owh shit. This is the 1st time I did comment on asianwiki, just for this drama. I love Ji Sung. Owh, nope, I adore him. He is a great actor. I love all his dramas and movies. Ohm Ki Joon and Yuri also did a great job in this drama. And this drama is just awesome. I love the storyline. Owh man, don't make me sick just waiting n waiting n waiting for the next eps. This drama drives me crazy !!! Keep it up those involve in this drama. Thumbs up! I'm addicted!

Geo Feb 09 2017 8:45 pm Ji Sung the best actor ♡

jasmine Feb 09 2017 7:04 pm very interesting drama.. great acting of Ji Sung... Whoaa... I like watching it per episode.. Nomu, nomu, jjoahaeyo..

For Uhm Ki Joon, he is specialist in acting as a physcho.. I remember him in Ghost... also as a vilain

Merdeka Indonesia

Soraya Feb 09 2017 2:42 pm It is not the same as Remember as the actors (father and son) had Alzheimer and not amnesia (in this case it looks like someone may be putting something in his food/drink though). The plot is not even the same at all. Obviously some of you are not watching the series but dare to comment.

OhRiJin Feb 09 2017 2:31 pm Ji sung is back...This kind of drama i need from him..i used to love all his works..it always awesome + amazing..but sorry but I really hate Ddanddara....this drama is addicting..this drama is making my curiosity getting higher every week....I'm getting crazy with my own thought... My mimd keep wondering many things....What actually happen that night? Where is hayeon ..is she still alive and hidden somewhere by someone...why Jung woo keep losing his memory...is jun hyuk related to this crime.... I keep suspecting everybody except for eun hye & Jung woo...please !! I need Monday right now..can't wait for new episodes...fighting !!!

mee Feb 09 2017 7:04 am agree with one of the comment below, i think ha yeon is kidnapped. And somehow i think she is with Sung Gyoo, maybe his "sister" that he always mention is ha yeon or ha yeon is staying with his sister. His hit-and-run date and time were never mentioned. it could be one day after Park Jung Woo's murder case. Maybe at that time, he is in hurry because he is carrying hayeon with him, not because he heard his sister sick.

jess Feb 08 2017 11:38 pm to the 'Kloop' guy down there who said they wouldnt watch because of the plot summary's similarities to remember, i agree that the plot summary sounds the same but it really isnt i have watched both dramas and remember was ridiculous (entertaining, but the plotholes were actually ridiculous). This drama is well written, and the amnesia part of it is the only similarity but even that part is completely different and executed wonderfully. anyways, you do you.

Cess Feb 08 2017 11:37 pm @Mark My Word It's Yoona not Yuna. Before you said anything bad about them just know the proper spelling okay! It's just that because someone praise her for her acting with the good ratings that this drama is receiving that doesn't mean you can insult her or anyone around her. If people who praised her is only her fans then Good Job for those SONE who supported her. BTW, She really can act! The directors know what they're doing and if she's really bad at acting do you really think that the K-Netz who are watching the drama will let it slide ? NO! If Yuri is bad at acting those people will throw bad and mean comments at her but do you see or read any articles about her bad acting? NO right? It just show that she did well on her character. Just watch.Okay! BTW, Thank you for complimenting Sooyoung!

sophiagarcia/rannyfrancisco Feb 08 2017 10:14 pm Watching 5 dramas which started almost at the same time. Voice, Defendant, Saimdang, Rebel Thief and Chief Kim. They all opened almost equally beautiful, exciting, superbly casted. Let us see which will be just good on appetizers and which will be good from appetizers, to main course through desserts. an avid Korean drama fan here.

Sansan Feb 08 2017 10:05 pm Opps' sorry...not kang jun hyuk but cha min hon/the evil twin..(posted feb 8 @ 9.10am)

Sansan Feb 08 2017 9:10 pm I keep wondering what happens next...there are lots of question..why, what, when and how the murdered took place .. Hope he'll regain his memory soon as when his memory return he already had a compile evidence to arrest kang jun hyuk

ciciloty Feb 08 2017 8:36 am I think Ha Yeon is kidnapped and park jeongwoo have to admit that murderer to save his daughter. But somehow, he losing his memory. Oh, can't wait next episode. I'm starting to hate Kang Jun Hyuk. How can he doing so badly to his best friend.

Kloop Feb 08 2017 8:29 am This k drama has about the same plot as remember k drama. Both have high rating lol. Happen to be aired exactly 1 year ago. Both sbs. Umh maybe not watching .

yk Feb 08 2017 7:26 am so everyone could literally be the killer?

isnai Feb 08 2017 7:21 am that's so amazing drama. I'm so like plot this drama.

Widy_Lintang Feb 08 2017 7:05 am At the first time I watched it because of Uhm Hyum Kyung hehe..and I know that Jisung is such a good actor but now I know that the story is really good like Signal :))

Cheong Feb 08 2017 2:59 am Did Jeong Woo have personality disorder? Who is Park Bong Goo? Why he not remember Cha Min Ho? This drama really arghh!! I can't wait until the next episode. Ji Sung never fail bring his character alive! GOOD JOB!

Lidya Feb 08 2017 1:09 am And now Seung Kyu suddenly confess that he was the murderer.. What happened actually? Aaaakk this drama is getting intense and unpredictable every single episode. Daebaaakk!!!

Tp Feb 07 2017 10:20 am Awesome! Of course cuz Ji Sung is the protagonist in this drama. The best Korean actor! The best ongoing drama now.

Sakura Feb 06 2017 4:15 pm The ratings are amazing!! I hope it increases as high as Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim!

So far, I can't trust any of the characters except for Eun-hye. The writers did a great job at making viewers doubt whether or not our hero, Jung-woo (Ji Sung) is actually innocent or not. Was expecting this to be the usual framed hero premise.

Both Ji Sung and Uhm Ki Joon are really killing it with their roles. And as more episodes pass, the writer made me pity Cha Min Ho just a bit. Guess Uhm Ki Joon was right when he said slowly Cha Min Ho seemed pitiful (still doesn't excuse his criminal acts tho)

Yuri's doing great so far, so I hope the writer doesn't do her character dirty. She's supposed to be Jung-woo's public defender, so she better play a major part in getting Jung-woo out of prison. Because sometimes writers tend to focus so much glory on the male lead, which leaves an impression that the female lead is useless. I'm worried her character might turn out badly written. There's a reason why Han Ye Seul rejected the offer after all.

hhh Feb 05 2017 10:22 pm Fantastic work yuri, you worked hard

569 Feb 05 2017 10:13 pm Yuri good job, defendant hitting daebak ,ratings risen even further to 18% already.

kyutibogum Feb 04 2017 12:44 pm Ji Sung acting skill is so gooood! He really good playing this kind of character. It fits him. His drama never fail me. Good luck! And the rating is doing so fine. Long time not watch this kind of mystery drama.

popandkorean Feb 02 2017 5:28 pm Hey guys, i just wanted to say that this show is on my next list because of the amazing actors I see in it.

Kdrama lover Feb 02 2017 4:56 pm The drama is totally impressive ...... the plot plus the way the leads ji sung and uhm ki joon are playing their roles..... just hats off really .... hope this doesnt lose its track and the plot remains equally interesting as it is now!!!

Abcusa Feb 02 2017 4:04 pm This drama so good . The story line , the acting . We can disregard any romances. No need romance in this movie and still A++ all the way. Love it.

TeeHee Feb 02 2017 12:36 pm Haha, agree!!! @Defendant

Defendant Feb 01 2017 11:35 pm People right now are judgemental just watch and enjoy the drama don't bash the actor/actress they really try their best to impressed

us. Can you act the way they act? Oh come on!

IG @oohthifa Feb 01 2017 10:52 am It turns out that Jun Hyuk = someone who came to Jeong Woo's house. So, is he the villain here? I was shocked when I found out. I mean, how could Jun Hyuk...? .-. Maybe he's angry because Jeong Woo is Ji Soo's husband? Well, I don't know. Can't wait for the next episodes!!

HUHHUHUU Feb 01 2017 9:07 am The real killer is Oh Chang Suk... i guess..

joe Feb 01 2017 7:26 am Wow.. To those who critic yuri acting must be a bit biased.. I know she is an idol, but i think she did pretty well in this drama.. Well, by looking to her previous acting.. No Offence.. i still think yuri doing a great job to fit into her character in this drama.. So, yuri and other casts should give a credit to their hardwork.. Anyway, I hope DEFENDANT will keep being hit.. Haters gonna hate yuri acting, but i still think she doing okay tho..;)

KSHnJJHForever Feb 01 2017 6:59 am really a jaw dropping drama.. It's the best thriller crime show..till fourth episode I m just loving it.. Ji sung is killing it.. Uhm ki joon is just best ever villain who makes audience hate n cringe at him.. Yuri is given little screenspace but she is doing well as of her role.. I hope Yuri n ji sung character together remove all hurdles n find the reality.. Fighting!! This drama truly deserves best ratings

Mhyda Feb 01 2017 6:06 am Good job Yuri unniee....#ActressKwon

Fam Feb 01 2017 5:01 am Lmao just saw that the next drama after this is the one with his wife, why they're not get paired instead thoooooo

Fam Feb 01 2017 4:58 am Jisung kill it again bless

He's everything tbh, still don't know what's Park Bong Go, whatever the drug Minho uses or what phobia or trauma he's got into during his childhood day he should stop it like right now!

Cess Jan 31 2017 9:24 pm Just watch the drama don 't overact and don't overhate. Just because Yuri's acting is not on your own liking that doesn't mean you have the right to insult her or what. If you don't like her then don't watch it's simple as it is. Just stop critizing her as if you're a critic or what. Okay! Just enjoy the drama!

hhh Jan 31 2017 6:32 pm Yuri good job, defendant hit daebak ep 3 -17.8% & ep 4 -18.7%.

LKB Jan 31 2017 4:47 pm I truly hope the ratings for this go where they deserve to... this is seriously the most intense show I've watched in years, and I've pretty much seen every Kdrama in the last 5 that was under 40 episodes and not idol-based. Ji Sung is KILLING this role (not his family, just the role!) and Uhm Ki Joon has always been perfect as a villain. I don't know why, but his facial features just speak out corrupt borderline psychopath when they throw him in expensive clothes. This time around, he is apparenty the full blown psychopath. Is that an upgrade in villain roles? He's just too good at being a selfish prickish a**hole. It makes me worry that if I ran into him I might want to punch him for being so good at being so bad! Still, Ji Sung... he is killing me. THIS is what I wish he had been doing instead of Entertainer (granted, it was his costars who made that show a bit mehhhh... he did a great job, but falling for Hyeri at his age seemed just too strange and she didn't fit it as well as she did her Reply 1988 role)... anyway, I am already clenched top to bottom and I've only seen 4 episodes. How we'll endure 12 more without shattering is a bigger mystery than the show itself!

Susan Jan 31 2017 1:54 pm I know Yuri is a kpop star but she is really a bad actress. I had to fast forward her overacting in episode 4. I hope Korean PDs stopping using kpop stars for their dramas and movies. Just because they can sing doesn't mean they can also act. Another example, Bae Suzy.

Ankita Jan 30 2017 12:14 pm I love Yuri

Shan_shan Jan 28 2017 1:10 am Daebak this is fantastic I watched this because I just love ji sung oppa but the drama itself took me by storm,ji sung is too amazing hope the rating will go much higher..main villain is also amazing it's a full package,fighting guys!!!

Yoojin Jan 27 2017 7:54 am I guess i have to say Uhm ki joon is a good actor. he impressed me so much in this drama. I hate him so much, how can he be so evil. Well of course, I don't have to praise Ji sung anymore. He is indeed a very good actor.

Kori Jan 26 2017 9:38 pm JiSung is doing such an Amazing job as Park JungWoo. It's a GREAT suspense, who-done-it drama. I knew I wouldn't be disappointed. Please Tune in & give your support to Innocent Defendant

fan Jan 26 2017 11:33 am After this drama ended itll be Jisung's wife's dramaa!! ??

Antonius Jan 25 2017 8:56 pm I think it's similar to Remember: War of the Son.

prince egypt Jan 25 2017 7:28 pm i agreed with lululu , this drama is similar to shawshank redemption , so far the story line is very thrilling and interesting , can't wait for the next episode !

Lululu Jan 25 2017 8:02 am remins me of shawshank redemption

yuuki Jan 25 2017 6:03 am This drama is good!! Cheers for Ji-Sung & Uhm Ki Joon! They can bring out their character soooo well :D All praises for both of them, they are so excellent (as expected from them hehe)

mandy Jan 25 2017 5:54 am just finished waiting 2nd episode, wow I must say this drama is good and its going to be a long wait for new episode, happy to see the rating, kip up the good job defendant's team

HANA Jan 24 2017 7:42 pm Congrats Defendant team for garnering 14.9 % on the second episode! I have confidence that the acting won't fail so lets hope the writer can keep this thrill consistent!

Everyone was amazing! And Yuri was pretty good despite it being her first lead role. But this drama really is an all out acting battle between Ji Sung and Uhm Ki Joon haha

Alia Jan 24 2017 5:07 am i just finished watching the first episode this drama is daebak uhm ki joon is an excellent actor he killed me and jisung of-course never disappoint me i am really looking forward to how this drama will progress in the future

chia Jan 24 2017 4:26 am The rating of first episode was 20.5 %. Wow daebak, I really love this drama. I Hope the rating still increase, jisung oppa... jjang.

Grace Jan 24 2017 3:12 am they said the rating was really high for the 1st ep!! daebakkkk... and Uhm Ki Joo play 2 character here... Is He twins or just have double personality????

Grace Jan 24 2017 1:37 am I heard the first episode rating is so high????? Woooow!! DAEBAKKKKK!! thanks God people give this drama chance to watched by them :D Because, I love this kind of drama and hope the drama doing well!

Lolit Jan 23 2017 11:11 pm Welcome back Jisung! I hope this becomes a blockbuster drama again!

northerngirl Jan 23 2017 4:46 pm Finally a decent drama on a weeknight!

Aditi Jan 23 2017 7:27 am Yess hyunkyung!!!

zh Jan 22 2017 6:12 pm Wow, Jisung is back! I'm excited! I hope this drama is better than Entertainer. I love Jisung's dramas such as Kill Me Heal Me, Secret, Protect The Boss, etc. but i don't like Entertainer. Defendat plot sounds interesting. About Yuri, i haven't watch her dramas, so i hope she can balance with another casts.

Jo In Sung is Bae Jan 20 2017 3:52 pm I was wrong, Joon Hyuk is Jung Woo's friend but still Eun Hye more important in this drama. Btw i read article from naver with translate of course about this drama. No love line in this drama. But scenes always can change if Defendant PD's want it ? It's interesting if Yuri and Jisung be a couple they are really opposite each other and i don't think age gap can be problem because Eun Hye character is a mature girl with her jon. Yesterday I see photos Defendant presscon and i can see Yuri and Jisung can match well as a couple both of them has a sweet face ? Actually there is some romance or not i don't really care because Iam really interesting for this drama. This drama is interesting with romance or without romance! 23 January please coming sooonn !!!

Jo In Sung is Bae Jan 20 2017 2:58 pm @Sakura : Nah,She's a third main character. Cha Sun Ho is dead in 1st or 2st episode, I mean Uhm Ki Joon not too long play two characters. Seo Eun Hye between them , I expected Min Ho will destroy both Eun Hye and Jung Woo. Joon Hyuk role to help Eun Hye because Joon Hyuk is Eun Hye friend in collage,He's not really important like Eun Hye.

Jane Jan 19 2017 11:50 pm Ji Sung- I hear he's have nightmares about this drama. This could lead to nervous breakdown. He's good , ah no, Ji sung is a superb actor. Be more confident and believe in yourself! So what if ratings are not favorable. There's ups and downs. I get more worried that Ji sung is stressed cos I still want to see his dramas forever And Ji sung please allow your family to relax him

Wilma Jan 19 2017 8:27 pm Waiting to see Ji Sung back again!!! So glad!!

Vivienne Jan 18 2017 8:29 am Kwon Yuri...Ji Sung... Ahn Yo Na... oh the memories..

Michelle Gonzalez Jan 17 2017 4:33 pm I hope Uhm Ki-Joon into a bad guy.most of the series i see him as bad guy.

macel Jan 17 2017 6:08 am I will definitely watch this!

Alia Jan 17 2017 4:56 am uhm ki joon and ji sung!!!!! have to watch this for sure plus the plot is totally my type

miro Jan 16 2017 8:32 pm arghhh, cant hwaitttttt ?

Hana Jan 15 2017 12:37 pm It's so cool they used Linkin Park's songs for the teasers lmao

Anyways, can't wait for Ji Sung, Yuri and Uhm Ki Joon!! The other casts look really amazing too I think I'm gonna love all their characters <3

Ivana Jan 13 2017 6:19 pm Can't wait ?

Meixing Jan 13 2017 10:15 am Can't wait to see JI SUNG's acting again.. i hope it'll be super duper hit like kill me heal me..

hara Jan 03 2017 10:35 pm see, try gap dong. It has same story as signal, and i still can't move on from it lmao

sakura Jan 03 2017 10:31 pm I have a feeling Han Ye Seul didn't take it because she's already a veteran actress that deserves a lead role. Seo Eun Hye seems more like just a character needed to support Ji Sung's character as a defense lawyer. She's just the fourth main character actually after Park Jung Woo (Ji Sung), and Cha Sunho/Cha Minho (Uhm Ki Joon). Or maybe she's not taking any offers because of her recent breakup?

Either way, right now I think the casting is perfect. I have a feeling Yuri will do a good job, although the highlight of this drama will definitely be the antagonistic chemistry between Ji Sung and Uhm Ki Joon.

Also, I'm a sucker for romance, so I'd be pleasantly surprised if there are subtle hints of it between Ji Sung and Yuri's character. Both of their characters seem quite the opposite of each other, where Park Jung Woo was the top prosecutor who never loses a case x Seo Eun Hye, a defense lawyer who ALWAYS loses a case. So it'd actually be an interesting dynamic to explore, romantically or not.

But there probably won't be romance considering Ji Sung's scenes are mostly in prison, plus his wife was murdered and child went missing.

kurage Jan 03 2017 3:16 pm My first impression on Yuri's acting was super bad (seeing her in fashion king) that I've never watched any of her dramas afterwards. Well, that was years ago so I guess she should have improved her acting by a lot. I really love Ji Sung, so I really hope that I won't drop another drama just because I got turned off by the lead female's acting (dropped Entertainer because of this). If this drama focuses more on the case and investigation than love story like Signal, it would be daebak.

see Jan 02 2017 6:36 am i hope this drama brought signal vibes, because i didn't find thrilling drama as much as signal did, everytime i saw this kind of genre from network televison show, it was only focused for one cases but none developement, they just extended the story line for make it long so the progress feeling so slow..

i hope this time ji sung will portraying an excellent character eventhough kill me heal me just phenomenal..

OPB Jan 01 2017 8:55 pm dang han ye seul shouldve taken it!! Ji sung and han ye seul wouldve been yasssssssssssssss anyways looking forward to this drama because of Ji sung

Kintania Dec 23 2016 5:08 am I am so excited for this drama ! I like all cast ❤ Jisung and uhm ki joon is great and Yuri is really pretty and her acting is good (BTW Iam became her fans since watch her recent web drama Goho Starry night, She's quite good. Really weird why people critized her act. She may be not a pro but she's decent so i don't see any problem here ?) She has natural pretty face and not childish face type. Jisung always my favorite actor ❤,he's really great actor ❤ can't wait !

Ally Dec 17 2016 11:15 pm Yuri slay as always

Sora Dec 17 2016 5:53 am Why with Yuri? Not that I am against her acting or anything but I am just not a fan of her at all. Well since its Jisung I am still going to try and watch it. If I can watch Entertainer which was boring af why cant I give this one a go? Hopefully it will be better than Entertainer. I am a fan of Jisung and his previous works like Kill Me Heal Me and Secret were all awesome so I hope this will be a good one too.

Liz Dec 11 2016 1:29 pm I'm so excited for this! Kim Minseok is my favorite actor and I can't wait to see him in his role!

sakura Dec 06 2016 8:56 am I'm so excited for this drama!! the plot sounds super interesting, and I'm dying to see Ji Sung in another drama lmao I trust him when it comes to good scripts. It was a pity that Entertainer didn't do well in terms of ratings, because I personally enjoyed that drama. It was very touching and heartwarming, felt very real, depicted character development and relationships very nicely. I think I know why Ji Sung accepted the role.

For this drama I'm expecting intense acting from Ji Sung as always, because his character sounds complex and thrilling.

Not sure why but I have a feeling Kwon Yuri will blow people away with this lawyer role. So far her character sounds interesting, a lawyer who tries to appear cool, is actually warm-hearted but can't help but get hot-tempered in court and in the end always loses a case? It sounds comical, and I'm hyped to see what kind of chemistry will Ji Sing and Yuri bring as a lawyer who always loses + an amnesiac who used to be the top prosecutor who never lost a case!

Sila Dec 05 2016 6:24 pm why Kwon yuri is the female lead?? there are a lot of amazing actress to take that role

lalola Dec 04 2016 7:42 am I think there's no drama for me in january next year.

Livia Dec 02 2016 7:00 pm Hanah: if they went, it's just more bad as means they have no talent. Sorry I am the 'audience', have no reason to judge them apart from their roles in dramas. Suzy actually was pretty good in ULovers or role was very suitable to her. Yury was boring, dull. The girl in Entertainer was terrible. Moon Lovers was partially ruined because of poor script and too much unprofessionals in it - rating showed it clearly. Yes I feel so sorry for talented, real actors who share failior because of idols, while i feel sorry for talented actresses who a kind of disappeared. Where is Moon Chae Won???? Which drama was more successful? For Ji Sung Secret or Kill Me Heal Me working with a talented actress or Entertainer? For Lee Joon Gi Scarlet Heart or Time Betwen Dog And Wolf? For Park Shi Hoo The Princess Man or Neighbour Hero? And so on.

Lissa: they are actors or wannabe, they can be judged according to this as our bosses don't care our personal feelings while working, audience don't care actors personal feelings. if they can't act please just don't.

meya Dec 02 2016 6:30 am @LKB hahaha me too TT my early guess of UKJ ... but hey at least he's on a dual role this time and hoping one character is a cheerful one and the other is the opposite :D

LKB Nov 27 2016 10:43 pm I just noticed the writer of this is the same person who wrote CITY HUNTER!!!!

The director I recognized the name of and admire a great deal... to pair with City Hunter's writer AND have Ji Sung as the lead=this will be amazing!

LKB Nov 27 2016 10:14 pm My ABSOLUTE favorite Korean actor is finally coming back!! Apart from The King's Woman and KAIST (I've only found part of it and don't want to get sucked into something I can't finish), I've watched EVERYTHING Ji Sung has been in (that has any acknowledgment, at least), and I'm so excited to have him show up for my birthday as another fantastic lead. I actually am about to watch KMHM again as the current lineup is a bit lacking many days and this is hibernation season so a lot more good media needs to amuse me :)

I like what little I've seen of Kwon Yuri (the little webseries Go Ho's Starry Night was really cute), though I also am curious how they went to her from Han Ye Seul but my curiosity is from the age-if there's a romantic element it jumps from a 5.5 year age difference to a 12.75year difference (filming when they are ages 26-27[Kwon Yuri] and 39-40[Ji Sung]). After Entertainer, I kind of hope that doesn't happen again (it would definitely not be as extreme as the 17yrs/most of her life and almost half of his of Ji Sung + Hyeri, but I'll watch every second regardless--he's one of 5 that I'd even endure, happily, a 120-episode trainwreck of a daily drama to watch... he'd make it something less cringeworthy and be worth a bad script!

My early guess=Uhm Ki Joon will again, AGAIN, be a villainous scoundrel, poor guy with his "don't trust me" face typecast, and Oh Chang Suk will be, a bit like his adorable ultra wealthy son working minimum wage in the produce aisle and buying the cute poor girl soup My Heart Twinkle Twinkle character, be on the good side, though he could go either way since good guy faces can BECOME bad guy faces for the most part (Lee Sang Yeob and to a lesser extent Park Seo Joon two I can't quite see as bad--puppy eyes with such cute mouths and cheeks... not villain material just yet, not without lots of makeup! Even Yoon Seung Ho, THE puppy eyes to make all puppies submit, can be more evil than them, but in that misunderstood hurt heart kind of way)...but the ones who have flatter features, smaller squinty eyes, more rat-like features instead of dog or cat looking or giraffe in one comedic actor's case... they almost always end up being the second lad and in some way or another are disliked through and through... sad when they DO have such talent. Case in point=Uhm Ki Joon has a lot of similar features and can play a lot of similar roles as Lee Seung Joon (Bubblegum's second natural doctor best pal, currently in Father I'll Take Care of You as the penguin farm investor dunce, Misaeng and even DotS)... it may simply be the wider jawline of LSJ making him potentially friendly OR rigid or goofy or slick while UKJ's narrow face makes him forever a freakin prosecutor (seriously, half or more of the roles I've watched him play are prosecutors!), very often mean as a fire-spitting dragon-snake (his face is often made, with makeup, to look both snake-like and a bit slimy like an eel or maybe a piranha that'll bite you in 2 seconds flat despite him having the ability to look both sweet, gentle, and attractive in his own way, just not as universally sexy/appealing as others, hence forever-second-lead)... anyway, they're similar to me but for some reason I want to usually go, even after he's done playing a nasty jerk, hug Lee Seung Joon and slap Uhm Ki Joon :P He's an amazing villain but I do wonder if he'll ever be a proper lead (competition's fierce and I can't deny that the ones they put him beside do tend to have more "melt the audience" sorts of features, esp. in the eyes and smile, while his allure is in the aloof ice cold power dynamic)... In any case, if he's a prosecutor or lawyer or judge again, I may throw a virtual punch at his manager OR possibly suggest he try for a Guiness record for most minutes onscreen playing a prosecutor or most separate series to keep any CSI sorts of multi-year shows from wiping him out... gotta have some goal in life, but who made his shape out this way?

Lissa Nov 27 2016 10:40 am Y'all re acting professionals to judge if idols can act or not? stop being such bullies and wait until your watch the damn thing. You keep offending them without remembering they are also persons and get hurt too.

nikname Nov 27 2016 6:56 am why did they go from han ye seul to yuri?? i mean not that i hate yuri.. im actually a retiring sone... but it is kinda off to me, what are they searching for. Overall, i like ji sung and uhm kijoong maybe I'll try to watch this, their image in my head matched with this theme too. /and why even suzy and yoona are brought to this comment section-.-/ let's judge later when it's already aired okay

Hanah Nov 26 2016 2:59 am Livia: "Send them to acting school" Um fyi, Yuri DID go into a college majoring in theatre studies, and graduated along Sooyoung and Park Shin Hye. So yes, she went to acting school.

Her role in Neighborhood Hero wasn't a really big one, so we can't really judge her acting from just there.

If you took off your idol prejudice tinted glasses, you'll see that Yoona was amazing in The K2, even though her character was poorly written. She acted out her emotional scenes brilliantly, and I think I'll believe veteran actors like Song YoonA and Jo Sung Ha themselves who had nothing but praises for her at how she acted out her scenes over so-called "critics" like you. Its obvious the problem with The K2 was just the writer who only favored Yoojin, but left out the main character himself. Ji Chang Wook and Jo Sung Ha both talked about how disappointed they were that their characters didn't turn out like they thought. Same with Yoona. When you have three of your main actors expressing regret over their characters, you should know something was obviously wrong with the writing.

Yoona blew me away even though I had doubts. IMO Yuri has more potential to me in acting, so I think she'll do even better.

Livia Nov 25 2016 12:37 pm nobodyshater:

Sorry, no, she didn't prove anything just being a person without carisma, I was terribly bored when she was on-screen, without the other female lead (who was great by the way) it would have failed even with JCW good actions' scenes.

Same with Yuri, I saw her with Park Shi Hoo, she was so lifeless and boring, too.

Idols just ruin dramas, they are not actors and it can be seen, I always "drop out" from the tale because of them. On the other hand, have a look at the Romantic Doctor, both young leads look to be actors, they are great to "tell the tale". If Korean film industry wish to use idols, please send them to acting school first, please, please, they are terrible, nowadays there is hardly any enjoyable drama due to them.

whitedaisies Nov 24 2016 9:12 am I kinda dissapointed with the cast. The lineups are great but TV is pushing idols so much to be the main. Maybe thats how the marketing works. I feel sorry for those actresses that wasn't given a chance to act. I don't hate yuri i love her but isn't it too much for her to get the lead? IU in ML got so much hate for her acting and I'm afraid yuri will be feeling stressful bc of the criticism too. I hope she can pulls a hyeri tbh. Prove ppl wrong and make them her fan.

nobodyshater Nov 24 2016 8:40 am To everyone saying that Yuri isn't on the same level as Ji Sung:

Months ago, everyone is saying that Yoona won't be a match for Ji Chang Wook and that she'll only ruin the drama. But she proved otherwise. Ji Sung, himself, is a promising actor. And Yuri, isn't new to this. She acted before, and has experiences. She did well in Goho's Starry Night, and I believe that she'll do just fine here, too. Let's not formulate assumptions about how good an actor/actress is, unless you've watched the drama already.

And when the pilot episode is released, you can judge on how well can Yuri act and keep up with Ji Sung. If you guys can't handle it, it would be your choice if you want to stop watching the drama. The door is always open. kbye~

Sandsiblings23 Nov 23 2016 9:51 pm Wow, Uhm Ki-joon! I love his acting so much. Can't wait to see him in this drama. Fighting!!

Lady Jo Nov 22 2016 10:49 am Yuri has actressy look than idol actually.. not really cute and childish. she has mature beauty face and her acting is descent too,i hope she'll improved a lot. I believe this girl can do well..

yk Nov 22 2016 9:19 am I personally a huge fan of law dramas so I wont skip this one and I don't really have any problems with the cast. Ji Sung is an amazing actor, he could carry 7 characters in one drama (not to mention his experience) and Yuri is actually a decent one definitely not the best but not an actress that will ruin the drama either. Fighting!!!

Zeze Nov 21 2016 8:22 pm Idk what are those talking about but if you compared suzy with yoona ithink suzy win,she got so many award in drama i'm not her fan but i know bcs i watched her drama dreamhigh,GFB,UF she improved a lot. just fyi for all of you who think idol cant act

Lady Jo Nov 21 2016 6:25 am Han Ye Seul get critized too when she was offered Female lead because her bad Pronounce and Diction.. as a lawyer pronounce and diction is important. Yuri's pronounce and diction is nice and her acting isn't bad but she get critized because she's idol and her acting is not same level as jisung. For Jisung Fandom If you wanna see Jisung's acting again You should accept Yuri as Female lead in this drama and for Kwon Yuri Fandom (who critized about Ji Sung's age) If you wanna see Kwon Yuri's acting in this drama you should accept Ji Sung as Male Lead. I believe Ji Sung and Yu Ri can do well as long The screen writer not ruining story and ending this drama ...

Roh Laren Nov 20 2016 11:06 pm Ji Sung is either very brave, or he was drunk when he signed the contract! I have high hopes in that, Lee Chang Wook just finished a drama with Yoona, from some girl band, and he carried the entire drama. Yoona's character was an after thought of the writers, and they gave her less screen time in comparison to Chang Wook. My point is, if it's good writing, Ji Sung will have a fan base watching, and we can but hope the k-pop girl doesn't drag it into the ground. Personally, I found that K-pop idols rarely make the transition from stage acting (in some circles bumping and grinding is an art form), to film. Very few make that transition successfully, and only after learning through experience...and growing with your craft! It's one thing to sing and dance around on stage to get your point across, but up close and personal like film? and I have to have more than just bumping and grinding.

zyrianna Nov 20 2016 10:44 pm Yuri isn't a bad actress but she's definitely not on the same level as Ji Sung and Uhm Ki Joon. I am shocked that she was cast with them. The director must be a Girls Generation fan. -.-

stan talent? stan bigbang Nov 20 2016 3:31 pm @melis, your comment made me laugh so hard lol. who tf cares if the guy is married, if he can act then there's no problem. yuri deserves better? what a joke. she should just stick with being an idol. if you prefer younger actors, then go watch something else cuz this drama clearly ain't for you.

Anne Nov 20 2016 3:12 pm @shewalkedinflower I don't know how to edit my comment. Not 'except' but 'especially'.Iam Really fiery Lol

shewalkedinflower Nov 20 2016 8:30 am I knew it, he would accept the script,Ji sung-ssi, please just focus on your screen time without Yuri, i watched Gogh, starry night to some point, some parts her acting can be endured, in other parts just a big Failure, I hope her role, isn't too big! srsly don't get it, there's planty of actress, I'm not aganist idols, just keep yourself in your domain of web dramas, don't stuck your noise in melodramas! i just don't want a zoomed screen of her blank face! -.-

mey Nov 20 2016 4:12 am ooohhh~~ I'm pretty happy & excited for this coz of Uhm Ki Joon-ssi :D , I'm quite worried that the character may be a villain again -.- , nonetheless, I'm hoping he would portray the character well along with the other actors and hoping it would be daebak .. I'm more into the story, so hoping the story is amazing but hopefully the ratings too :) :) 오랜만 이네 :) Defendant fighting!

melis Nov 19 2016 10:53 am Ran: Because Han Ye Seul is a good actress right??^_^ You made me laugh..All her recent dramas failed so hard and Yuri deserves better man like not married..He is a good actor but there are more younger and succesful actors

Aly Nov 18 2016 8:59 pm I love ji sung in "kill me, heal me" & protect the boss..he's versatile actor..looking forward to this new one..

kirr Nov 18 2016 5:37 pm Low budget drama for sure

Ran Nov 18 2016 2:11 pm How did they go from Han Ye Seul to Yuri.......................................................................................I hope Yuri can act because Ji Sung.

Livia Nov 18 2016 2:59 am RereY: A childish comment, korean TV full with dramas with young, mostly untalented flower boys, I am sick of them, Ji Sung is a very talented actor and as hot as the hell. And a lot of "old" actor is the same, Joo Jin Mo, Lee Seo Jin, the man who acted the dump father in Suh Baek Young and so on and so on, they all can act, making the tale beliavable and enjoyable, and all of them are hot. Sorry.

Livia Nov 18 2016 2:53 am Oh, no!

Why they didn't cast a proper female leed? Will be another wasted time for Ji Sung' talent. :-( He is the best with Hwang Jung Eum, if not her, there are so many good actresses around. Love Moon Chae Won, love the girl who acted Suh Baek Yang, both can play and are excellent actresses, and there are so many.

When they will learn that idols just ruin their dramas in most of cases? When a couple work so well, gaining success, attention, leaving memories like HJE and Ji Sung already did it twice in Secret and in Kill Me Heal Me, too, why on earth they can't be paired again for another excellent drama? I was unable to watch Entertainer, I love Ji Sung to bits, but that female lead was so annoying I couldn't cope more than the first 2.5 episodes.

- Nov 18 2016 2:41 am lol why always ji sung. Omg please (-_-)

monz Nov 18 2016 2:21 am I hope Yuri could improve, amen.

lol Nov 17 2016 11:58 pm Oh common you are not a producer or a director of this series.. To tell who will be the main character.... Just accept it. If you don't want to watch... Then don't..

Uhm Fan Nov 17 2016 10:51 pm Why they put yuri in main lead when they got Uhm Hyunkyung

Kara Nov 17 2016 8:31 am Dear Ji Sung, please say NO to this. You know this will be a flop and disaster. You already had a flop with Heyri. This one is worse than Heyri. Stop casting idols! I am so sick and tired of them. Ji Sung! You better run run run run>

RereY Nov 16 2016 10:43 am I hope lead male not jisung ahjussi. very very old yeaks..

gea Nov 16 2016 10:34 am stop underestimate her!! she will prove to you all. She will be better than you guys talking about!!

caisy Nov 16 2016 10:24 am Seo ha joon pls the king

RR Nov 16 2016 3:05 am The heck! So many negative comments about Yuri. She's not that bad in acting, otherwise nobody would cast her. Just sayin. :)

shewalkedinflower Nov 16 2016 1:00 am What the heck! Y would they put yuri in this! If Ji sung accepted, and I'm certain to some point that he would, City Hunter writer isn't a joke, but idols like Yuri and Suzy, has no acting skills to opposite Ji sung! He had enough of Dandara, and I'd watch it with bitter, Yuri, I've a mental breakdown! T.T

Anne Nov 15 2016 5:20 pm Try to to watch her web drama 'Goho Starry night'. She did well more than suzy and IU. I love Jisung in his drama ' kill me heal me' and the story so interesting. Looking forward for this drama! If jisung not playing in this drama, iam still watching this drama because City hunter writer ! and i don't have any problem for Yuri because her acting is good . Yuri seem so potential... she can follow nana and hyeri for "Acting Idol did well than real actress"

Bouchra Siroua Nov 15 2016 1:26 pm The casting for good dramas this day is so wrong, so so wrong

melis Nov 15 2016 7:03 am Don't get me wrong I love Ji sung he is really really a good actor but..I hope she partnered up with a trendy actor not a married man and someone who has a lot of experience and handsome-of course!

Wew Nov 15 2016 6:01 am Ji sung act is better than wo bin, bo gum, and other actors. You kidding me that ji sung is not good. His role in protect the boss, secret, and kill me heal me is better than bogum moonlight's act skill -_-

Uldiva Moonarwan Nov 15 2016 5:49 am Lee Jin Wook , please... he suits this role very much！

Yulki Nov 15 2016 4:41 am yes!! yuri take the female lead

A.I. Nov 09 2016 4:22 am It's been reported that Uhm Hyun Kyung will play in this drama. But I don't know what role she will play

Me Nov 07 2016 12:11 pm Give a good actor and actress please, like kim woo bin maybe or park bo geum

Eny Nov 05 2016 7:55 pm I want lee jin uk as the male lead or bae soo bin

Sweets Nov 02 2016 8:57 pm Jisung! He mesmerizes in every drama he's in... Oh wait, that's just me. Hope he takes the role and impress us... i mean, me further. Cross fingers, waiting for good news...

Momo Ni Oct 28 2016 11:11 pm It was said during happy together than Uhm Hyeon Gyeong is taking the female lead role but not quite sure if its true or not. If you guys wanna check it out yourselves its in Happy Together ep 471

glee Oct 26 2016 6:23 pm Hyde, Jekyll me director and city hunter writer. Soo not a chance for a good ending, and maybe not a chance for understanding the plot either, since both those dramas have very bad ratings about that :(
