Comments

Humna Sep 16 2020 6:00 pm The entire drama seemed to show pre-trial scenes. Glad atleast the last episode showed us a court room. The ending wasn't satisfactory at all. The managing prosecutor just accepted the consequences. This aids to show the reality but also instil fear amongst anyone willing to stand against corruption. Anyhow. Overall the drama was really good. Really hoping for a season2?

Andie Jul 23 2020 8:46 pm I loved this drama from the start! Keeps you wanting more! Could have prolonged the ending of what happens next after the trial . Should have ended in a more romantic scene. Choi Jin Hyuk was great in this!

ad Jun 04 2020 3:23 pm Overall good drama with a lot of twists and turns that made it interesting. There were a few episodes though that it kind of dragged mostly on the first half of the season and then eventually got really interesting. I could see why some viewers might think it's boring because of how slow it was during the first half. Some episodes could've been condensed IMO but overall still not a bad series. 87/100

question Oct 30 2019 10:34 am Does anyone know what Moon Hee-Man's ringtone is?

Ore-sama Jul 28 2018 3:40 am Agree with @Davia. Perhaps this is Choi Jin Hyuk fate, all his characters with name Gu gets all the betrayal from his love at first sight! And doesnt get perfect happy ending. I watch this with restless and unsatisfied feeling. I guess this is the reality of Pride & Prejudice. That aside, it was great. 8/10 star from me.

MF21 May 25 2018 5:02 am I love Choi Min Soo! One of the versatile actor in Korea!

Davia Jul 22 2017 12:20 am This drama was a fairly decent until the end. I'm so fed up with these pathetic and insane KD endings. That was so out of character that he would lie back in his car and just takes it! Get real.

Also why would Dong Chi need to quit being a prosecutor for hitting and accidentally killing someone who was trying to murder a child. Not only that he was a kid himself then. This ending reminds me of the propaganda of 'Fashion King' that tries to instill fear in people to stand up against corruption.

Then what happened between the end of ep.20 and the beginning of ep.21. LOL! If it wasn't for the amazing Korean actors I would have stopped watching Korean dramas a long time ago. The writers so often get carried away with themselves and loose all credibility.

The court scene in the last episode was so badly conducted that these prosecutors should be ashamed of themselves.

suissant Apr 10 2017 12:40 am @tokbuki No it's a prosecutor/mystery/investigation kind of drama. The pride and prejudice alluded in the drama has to do with the main couple of the drama. Don't listen to Mrs. OM, It's a pretty entertaining drama if you like mystery and investigation with a pinch of romance in your dramas.

Mrs. OM Jul 03 2016 8:40 am @tokbuki Nope it's boring

tokbuki Jul 01 2016 5:30 am is this drama has something to do with jane austen's pride and prejudice? is this drama worth watching? please tell me.

frisk Jan 24 2016 11:50 am I dont know why they only get a vew rating. I thought all episode of the drama make us feel real and bring the viewer into the court zone especially final episode. Baek jin hee should in more drama with choi jin hyuk they have a good act.

Sienny Oct 18 2015 1:43 pm It is a good drama i love both the main actor and actress, it is a heartwarming drama, however it has a lot of plot holes and left many things unanswered. First,

1. How can the parents do not know whose handwritings in that dong chi's ripped score paper? 2. What happened to the beggar in the park? he said he threw boiling water to choi yoon hee and killed her? But there was no burnt mark in the body? And the investigation closed the case as suicide. 3. How can the beggar get choi yoon hee's bag?

angel Aug 21 2015 4:56 am worth watching for....im so inlove with lee tae hwan...great cast! superb story! great actors and actresses.... two thumbs up for this series! love you oppa kang soo!

Lethal Aug 18 2015 12:24 am A decent MBC series. It will take you to journey the gray area between prosecutors' pride and prosecutions' prejudice. This show uses its mature storytelling to set the heavy yet realistic stage for the development of the past and the present, connecting their shadows at the feet of the beautiful Han Yeol Moo. Through her eyes, may you find the black and white of Justice. 7/10.

Sienny Aug 05 2015 8:08 am Why from the start they don't check the hand writing on the dong chi piece of paper which said " please save me" ? I mean then we can know whose writing is that, han byul or kang soo. I get a little confused here

Aj Jul 22 2015 5:26 am Great cast, writing, and direction. Charming Lee Tae Hwan in a break out performance. Best line: "The two of you are six-year-old soul mates."

My criticism is that while the finale is fairly satisfying and realistic in context, once again a KDrama writer rushes the last minutes even though having 21 episodes to work it out carefully and thoroughly. It is a constant issue in KDrama and unfair to viewers who have devoted hours to these productions.

Lethal Jul 06 2015 4:21 am An entertaining series best watched alongside *A New Leaf, Pinocchio*, and *Missing Noir M*. This show reveals the secrets and dark dealings of the monstrous prosecution organization. Very realistic. Viewers will better grasp the full power of this very organization as our dear prosecutors take on each case, and learn the truth behind the saying "Prosecutors may change, but Prosecution Office is everlasting." 8/10.

Kureru Jun 24 2015 7:16 pm I really loooove this drama! Is quite good, I like the story ! But... the end is a little bit short. Good but short... I just feel like it's missing something at the end.

Pinay Korean Fanatic May 19 2015 5:28 am Daebak!!! this is total awesome drama. the twists of the story is unpredictably great. I really love Choi Jin-hyuk and have watched all his drama. I would say this is the best. I'll be waiting for your comeback oppa (after the military service). Fighting!!!

Guest Enquirer Mar 27 2015 3:15 pm I am curious as to why the young prosector Koo and his father could not find Han Byul before the bad guy came back to set fire.

alex Feb 25 2015 2:54 pm Baek Jin Hee was awesome in empress ki. after watching this few episode dropped it . not worth my time

dora Feb 24 2015 3:59 am It's interesting at the beginning than lost at the end.

alan Feb 15 2015 6:28 pm this drama thriller is worth watching as it offers page turning suspense that keeps the audience gripping on their seats as the investigation process slowly reveals the final truth..

as there are many characters in this drama, we have to keep in mind of their names in order to understand what is going on as the drama progresses...

finally, the ending is quite good as the scripwriter had added a clue to one of the scene, which i had missed out, that lead to the arrest of the mastermind..

Selma Jan 27 2015 11:29 am Hey guys, does anyone know what the name of the opening song (in the beginning of every episode) is and where I can hear it?

Thanks

tammy Jan 25 2015 12:10 pm I thought it was excellent, except for the ending. Now, I can't rewatch it because it loss the ending was really stupid. I thought the romance sizzled at the end. Should have had more impact with the love story and should have had the Chief rescuing that kid. How did he end up at grandma's house? Who gave him his new idenity to protect him from killing him. Whose kid was he?It was so good and I spent 21 hours watching this to get that ending? SUCKS!

emabee Jan 22 2015 4:52 pm Good drama.i enjoyed but I enjoyed more during last episodes. But why moon was killed? And what will happen to moon's culprit?

gasenadi Jan 20 2015 1:17 pm And Jeong Seong-Mo, giving a moving performance as the grief-stricken father.

atikniti Jan 20 2015 4:43 am SPOILER ALERT....

I've enjoyed this drama a lot, but I'm very dissapointed about the final regarding the boss of the team

ctzen2011 Jan 19 2015 1:29 am I love this drama for ever. It was unusual than others korean drama. I love Koo DOng Chi and Mon Hee Man. Thanks for they great acting.. This drama make me dying to analyze it. The romance was not much but it was cute.

Lysj Jan 18 2015 11:24 pm A really good drama with a complicated plot. I highly reccomend it!

SPOILER For those wondering about chef Moon last scene, yes, I'm pretty sure he died, that's why, while he was talking on the phone, he said to not wait for him because he was going to be late. The guy in the back of the car was Prosecutor Choi Gwang-Gook's henchman who was there to take revenge for his betrayal. And the child at the end is clearly Han Byul. He can now rest in peace because his murderer has been finally caught. I would have prefered a less rushed ending, but I'm quite satisfied with this drama. Thumbs up!

naomi Jan 17 2015 4:02 am Well... i don't understand WHY they fought over Han Byul's murderer + ppl who kidnapped Hanbyul & Kangsoo until the end whilst the one who caused this situation (Jung Chang Gi's hit&run, caused kangsoo's mother dead and ppl started trying to kill kangsoo bcos he's the witness and ppl mistaken which one is the victim's son between Han Byul & Kangsoo so they kidnapped both). Jung Chang Gi wasn't investigated or trial and they were okay with it???? Damn, have been following this drama from ep 1 until the last ep 21 and i think that point is the problem here. Plus the female lead is NOT really convincing. Baek Jin Hee is better not take this kind of role again next time. GUYS, EVEN THOUGH THIS DRAMA IS A BIT WEIRD FOR SOME REASON BUT THIS DRAMA IS GOOD. YOU WON'T REGRET WATCHING THIS. Im sure you'll enjoy this drama bcos it's NOT boring in each episode.

roger Jan 14 2015 11:35 am A bit rushed much? The ending in 20 where the bad guys all show up at each of our protagonists and then 21 is in a court room, doesn't show what happened when they faced off. Did they run out of money to complete this series? Pretty good show till the last 2 episodes.

lyx Jan 14 2015 4:07 am Is there episode 21? I can't believe that ep 20 is the last ep!!!

Lee Jan 14 2015 2:07 am SPOILER ALERT ON FINAL EPISODE!!!!

I just finished watching the final ep. 21. I don't get it. What the heck happened to Moon He-Man in the end when he got in his car? Were we supposed to read-between-the-lines??? Who was the guy in the back of the car? Did Moon He-Man just 'allow' his "fate" or what??? Despite "winning" the trial and the guy getting sent to jail for murdering the kid...was someone (guy in back of car) ordered by the guy going to jail to kill Moon He-Man & he knew there was no way to escape so he just surrendered to it???

WEIRD!

Nouchee Jan 13 2015 10:40 pm This drama was really good overall and I stayed tuned with it every week as well. But the last episode was soooo rushed and ended so fast. I think it would of needed another episode to clear up everything that was happening. -___-

Tierzab Jan 13 2015 10:25 pm Well, that did not end like I thought it would.........

Taylorsyg Jan 13 2015 12:52 pm There will be a 21 episode (:

naomi debrina Jan 13 2015 6:55 am I got confused, who is panda? the man who is twin or the man who have mark on his face?

Jess Jan 13 2015 4:16 am I just watched episode 20. I'm confused is there one more episode or another season or was that the end?

Verona Jan 12 2015 10:33 am This drama has actually 21 episodes.

Kiks Jan 11 2015 7:21 am Great movie, great actor. Baek Jin hee is so cute with a short hair, in this drama, and her chemistry with choi jin hyuk is perfect.. Yes, they're cute to be together.

cjhfan Jan 08 2015 2:33 pm

- - SPOILER***

EP 19- I think Kang Soo was rescued by the Chief, remember that Kang Soo remembered Chief's face and when Kang soo was in the trunk (young)? Or the chief could have an accomplice. Whatever the case, it's a good thing that Kang Soo remembers at least some of it. I hope the ahjusshi won't die :( I really can't wait for next episode!! This episode was daebak!!!

ace Jan 08 2015 1:21 pm I have to agree with previous posters. The prosecutor is a terribly written character. I know it is written that way to give excuses to further the so-called plot. But too much of it is just too stupid to swallow. It become quickly obvious that they are just trying to shoehorn in unbelievable decisions to manipulate but in a bad way. It is tantamount to the "scared white chick" in horror movies that is incapable of running 3 steps without falling down. Just makes you roll your eyes. Acting is good and it often has a slick look that is fun to look at. But the plot....meh.

Rog Jan 07 2015 11:38 am Lauren, I think he is getting his memories back from the kidnapping and you know "who" is the face he remembers. I figure this is another misdirection twist in the show.

Naisy Jan 07 2015 4:56 am That prosecutor Lee is annoying! I hope prosecutors in Korea are not as lazy as him!

Lauren Jan 06 2015 2:02 pm I love love love this drama , but im confused about the last episode. the ending was kangsoo having a flashback ( i dont want to spoil) . what exactly is happening at the end?

Ana Dec 27 2014 3:34 am BAEK JIN HEE and CHOI JIN HYUK!!! I love you both!

Nouchee Dec 27 2014 1:05 am I really really really LOVE Choi Jinhyuk in this drama. I've fallen in love, I've watched other dramas with him in it but this one he grasped his character very well. The love the chemistry between him and the female lead as well. The romance isn't very big but you can definitely tell thats it there though! At first Choi Minsoo's voice bothered me a lot but as the drama progressed I grew on it and realized that's his character's charm! I don't want this drama to end T___T only one week left. I hope for a beautiful ending and for this drama to receive more love and WIN awards!! <3

Naisy Dec 26 2014 6:21 am I agree! Jung Hye Seong is a better actress here than the lead actress. First time that i watch them both, i am not a fun of any one of them, only an observation, my only opinion. Anyways, this drama is good. I will still watch till the last ep.

M Dec 25 2014 10:50 am @PBS, I totally agree with you.... :)

naomi Dec 24 2014 11:43 pm everything is fine but the lead female is no-no.

PBS Dec 24 2014 3:22 am Choi Jin Hyuk is so super swoon in this drama. Gu Dong Chi is the perfect role for him. I love all the scenes with him versus Choi Min Soo's Chief Moon. Their staredown showdowns make me look forward to the next episode. Absolutely great acting from the two of them. I couldn't be happier seeing Choi Jin Hyuk hold his own against Choi Min Soo. And it's great to see a veteran like Choi Min Soo be willing to take a younger actor like Choi Jin Hyuk (he's only 28!) under his wing.

Seriously, this drama's strong point is the acting. The entire cast's chemistry is stellar and on point. The only flaw to this drama is the plot. I can see how it can be too much for people to handle who are looking for fluff and romance in their k-dramas. It can be easy to get lost in the tangled web of corruption this drama is trying to weave. But honestly, I'm perfectly fine with dramas like this, it reminds me a lot of American tv shows that deal with corruption and crime in government.

Even though this drama isn't sappy and overdone with its romance plot (thank goodness! I'm so sick of k-dramas that force the OTP down our throats), I like that it's realistic in developing the romance. To have romance, you must build trust. And that takes times.

Jenn Dec 24 2014 2:25 am I really enjoy this drama, the story is compelling and very intriguing. BUT.... there is always a fly in the soup . EVERYTHING WRONG WITH this Drama = Prosecutor Han!! OMG she thinks she is so righteous and smart, but she just comes off as naive (in a bad way), impulsive, annoying dumb emotional train wreck... While everyone else is busting to solve the case, she is making stupid decisions that an apprentice should not be making, convoluting the story even further.. She is such a pest, weak female lead.

lama Dec 22 2014 12:30 pm Baek Jin Hee is trying so hard to be act and look like Yoon Eun-Hye please stop!

Rayan Dec 21 2014 11:09 am Very nice show, I disagree about saying they have a bad chemistry; because the actress supposed to feel guilty about what happened to her brother so she couldn't let herself be in love. It is her pride consume over her emotions, her pride to be guilty to be responsible and most important to complete her mission in order to solve her brother case. then falling in love would be easy.. It is just Pride and Prejudice .. I think she really love him ..

ria Dec 19 2014 5:55 am This movie is getting interesting. I don't like their boss. He's such a two-face prosecutor. I hope he'll get caught at the end of this movie. Anyways nice movie. I would give this a "5 STAR"!!!!

sarah Dec 18 2014 7:58 pm I really love this drama. I dont see what is the problem with the chemistry. Its just soo perfect and interesting. Really love the cast. Recommended show to watch^-^!!

yeah Dec 15 2014 11:46 pm The leads have poor chemistry? I agree!

ina Dec 13 2014 7:06 pm I like this drama, it's intersting but i don't like the chemistry between Dong-Chi and Yeol-Moo. I like both of them but not together. Sorry but this is my opinion. I think Lee Jang Woo and detective Yoo are the best couple, i just love them.

nurul Dec 13 2014 4:57 pm Even watch this drama, i think and i feel moon chae won its better if be lead actress... Baek jin hee bad in here, she is have same expression in different scene. she haven't chemistry with lead male, so thin...

Iris Dec 09 2014 11:47 pm Love this drama, can't wait for the next ep!

Nemesis Dec 05 2014 8:32 pm The plot is good, especially the cahracter buildup. They have very good writers for this drama.

Unfortunately, the lead actress is quite bad. Her expressions are stoney, and she has poor chemistry with the lead actor. Her "happy" scenes are quite forced, her "romantic" scenes leave me cringing, and her only saving point is that she cries extremely well. Her worst scenes are those where she is supposed to take charge as a talented but inexperienced prosecutor. She comes off completely unconvincing and it is obvious that she did not prepare well for this role.

The lead actor is far stronger, but his biggest failure is the poor chemistry with his lead actress.

The best acting comes from the chief prosecutor. He is absolutely convincing in his role.

I really like the pacing of this drama and how it unfolds (even though it can get quite predictable sometimes). Shame about the poor acting,

nanc Dec 02 2014 3:42 pm why they judge they judge the storyline LIKE that part is actor worse?... Today I have usually seen many koren drama fans commented freely Like.... He dont/unable to couple with her OR she dont/unable to souple with him... I dont SURE if you have (who commneted it) have HEART in your body... It's idiot if you can't diferentiat between STORYLINE & CHEMISTRYprogress..

Prosecutor Shan Dec 02 2014 1:08 am I love this Korean drama series. So far, this is the only drama that keeps me updated of every episode and film review even if I don't have the access of MBC channel itself in my television but I always make sure that I won't get behind from watching the current episode on screen. As an aspiring Cinematographer and Actor, I couldn't deny that they may have mistakes in some details (production itself) but the whole story is just perfectly made that I would want to view what's next every after each episode is done. The actors are so lovely and passionate in delivering their roles. Some may not see it, may because of bitterness, hahaha. I don't know with them but that's how I look at it. Baek Jin Hee is one of my favorite actors, I know that she may be adjusting from the given role but I do believe that she knows what she's doing. By the way, CONGRATULATIONS! Please keep inspiring us! ♥

qr Dec 01 2014 5:12 am such a weird storyline the ratings vary from what i expected from choijinhyuk. im a singaporean actor

Kikay Nov 26 2014 12:27 pm All I can say....I'm loving this story.!!! Baek Jin Hee is doing just find. She's fit to her character role...please don't change or I won't watch anymore. i don't watch a lot of drama specially Korean drama but when I like the story, I stayed with it and so far Pride and Prejudice is my third Korean drama I like.

mimi Nov 25 2014 11:28 pm The female lead's acting is not convincing. I just hope they got another actress for this kind of role. She looks like a teenager and acts like one, not a prosecutor. Got tired watching after some episodes. And the loveline between leads is not working, don't push it!

yul Nov 25 2014 8:26 pm Actually, I thought Baek Jin Hee is doing a fine job as Han Yeol Moo and same goes with Choi Jin Hyuk. For those complaining about not the actress not being very convincing, how so?? You're not very convincing as supposed to why BJH's acting isn't very convincing. Maybe it's her character? I agree with @yanggg that maybe that's just the way the writers wanted Yeol Moo to be.. Don't worry, as misunderstandings between Dong Chi and Yeol Moo are cleared, we are for sure to see more chemistry among those two. For all you saying there is no chemistry between these two, have you seen the way they look at each other and deliver their lines?? Love doesn't always have to be seen, sometimes love is the strongest when it is felt..

yanggg Nov 25 2014 8:18 pm Don't blame the actress for not "loosing up" on the kiss with Choi Jin Hyuk. Obviously the writer or director wanted the character to act this way. Anyways, I'm sure a lot of us want a steamy kiss and all, but as for now you just got to be patient. How can you expect Yeol Moo to kiss back or enjoy the kiss when she has that mindset that Dong Chi killed her brother? It just doesn't make sense. If you're annoyed with her character, then JinHee is doing her job right. Just give it a couple more episodes, and if you don't like it, then simply watch something else.... In my opinion, I thought the actor and actress were perfect for the role..Some parts of the plot were sloppy, but it's the writer's fault..

Genesis Nov 25 2014 12:00 pm This drama is pretty good, but pretty predictable. Writers really, you start the main female lead off as seeking revenge against Dong Chi because she believes he is responsible and/or killed her little brother...and then you mix in her having romantic feelings for the dude....SICK, TRULY SICK!!!

If you were losing viewers this was why...no real woman, would habor romantic feelings for someone she believed killed her brother....seriously. But to redeem yourselves, I see the plot change...No you have Han Yeol working with Dong Chi to solve the murder (if in fact it really is one...)

I do not see any chemistry happening between these actors, Choi Jin and Baek Jin, seem like they are forcing the chemistry to happen. The both look about as relaxed as a thief and the police together. IF THE WRITERS ARE INSISTING ON KEEPING THIS UP...THEN CAN THE DIRECTOR GIVE SOME DAMN DIRECTION....BAEK JIN, IF YOU DON'T LOOSEN THE HELL UP...WHEN A MAN KISSES YOU, DON'T FREEZE LIKE A DEER IN HEADLIGHTS...YOU ENJOY IT. CHOI JIN, IF YOU GONNA SPRING A KISS ON A WOMAN SO FAST...THEN MAKE SURE SHE ENJOYS IT!!!

I'm so sick of actresses in South Korea, acting like it's the end of the world if they kiss a man...its fake...no one is going to accuse you of liking the dude for real or accuse you of being an easy woman for doing what the script calls for....hell if you can't manage a kiss for whatever reasons that maybe holding you back...take a page for the drama "She's So Lovely," and share a tender hug like Rain and Krystal...hell I'd believe that more....

The Kang Soo character, is totally perfect...and I'm not just saying that. Lee Tae-Hwan, has returned me to my youth...when having a crush on a person, was the scariest and greatest thing in the world...when having a crush, meant you secretly longed for moments to see your love interest, and hunted for cute ways to interact with them...Fighting Kang Soo! I believe it more if Kang Soo was paired with Han Yeol than the way the script is going now..... WRITERS COULD YOU DO SOMETHING ORIGINAL FOR A CHANGE...GIVE THE SECOND MALE LEAD A CHANCE....WOULD IT KILL YOU!!!

Of course there is the question of whether or not Kang Soo is going to be Han Yeol's baby brother, and if that's the case...a relationship isn't gonna work (love that the plot is evolving...Kang Soo's night sweats and dreams of drowing.....). This part is good for the reveal. I also think that Kang Soo's uncle needs to be played up some more...don't just fade him to black...there was a reason, you wrote the part and cast this actor....don't just use him for filler....really use him. Don't forget there is a story to be told between him and Chief Prosecuter Moon....and please do something with his voice (It's sucks!!!)

Lastly, I totally Choi Woo...he's adorable. Loving his part in this drama....FIGHTING ENTIRE PRODUCTION/CAST!!!!

Tierzab Nov 23 2014 12:00 pm For those of you asking what the torn paper is about? When Dong Chi goes to his Father's work to show him his score paper for Medical School. Dong Chi is greeted by a gangster(his father is no where in sight). The gangster rips up the score card and throws it on the ground. Yeol-Moo's little brother has been kidnapped by the gangster and the little brother uses half of the torn score card to write a note that says something to the effect of "Help Me". Dong Chi sees the little boy and motions for him to be still till he can rescue him. Dong Chi is able to get the little boy out and they only get so far before they trip on some pipes. Dong Chi is knocked out, the gangster rekidnaps the little boy and the story continies from there. Hopefully this will help to explain for those of you wondering.. Enjoy the rest of Pride and Prejudice.

Neete Nov 22 2014 8:36 am Baek Jin Hee is not convincing as a prosecutor, my opinion. Can't convince myself they (Koo Dong Chi/Han Yeol Moo) as a "pair", unable to feel any chemistry between them.

Baek Jin Hee was good in Empress Ki, like her there.

M Nov 20 2014 1:40 pm where's episode 8???

suk9014 Nov 20 2014 10:21 am Can someone explain to me about episode 5 and 6 case. I don't really get to it at all. Sigh!!!

Yui Nov 18 2014 9:31 pm waaahh, the rating for this drama is higher than i expected.. since so many dramas just got under 10, so this one is really not bad.. goodluck!

rulz Nov 18 2014 3:44 am i like this drama a lot, predictable for its love story maybe, but the case is unpredictable at all. waiting for next episode :)

doctorzais Nov 17 2014 1:52 am there are definitely similar themes to Jane Austen's book in this drama...

other than that is a hot mess of a plot

Tap Nov 04 2014 11:35 pm Episode 4 ..... ep4's ending was shocking.... I'm dumbfounded... as of the moment.... Daebak twist!

Fers Nov 04 2014 5:22 pm I want to love this drama because I like the theme but everything is so cliché and predictable: characters, subplots, cases. The writer was apparently lazy. The acting is boring too. But I gotta love how I'm not the only one who can't resist Kang Soo lol! The kid (19 years old??? damn) is fine as hell but it's not enough to keep me interested in this show.

Tap Nov 04 2014 4:38 am I don't care about others thoughts about the title... Ok! All I care about is the chemistry of the two leads! Koo Dong Chi and Han Yeol Moo makes me feel like I'm a high school student again.

Aside from the two leads, I think there is something going on with Prosecutor Lee Jang Won and Investigator Yoo Gwang Min, I like there team up too. Let see what happens.

P.S. Kang Soo is f-ing HOT!

yul Nov 03 2014 6:01 pm The torn paper is a document that somewhat have a connection with Yeol Moo's brother's death. That's as far as I know.. And somehow it seems that Dong Chi is involved in it..

alexandra Nov 02 2014 8:27 pm What is the torn paper?? Is it a birth or death certificate? Why is it so important??? I am so looking forwrd to this kdrama... can hardly wait for more episodes!! 1&2 SUPER GOOD!

ori Nov 02 2014 3:13 am Loose adoption, multiple elements from Austin's books mixed in, but so far, not bad.

ori Nov 02 2014 3:09 am I don't watch Korean Drama usually (too much drama, too time consuming), but "Pride and Prejudice" is my Achilles' heel, so I couldn't resist.

As one would expect by simply looking at the promotional pictures, this is a very loose adoption of Pride and Prejudice. The essentials are there: a headstrong, but younger and less experienced, "Lizzy" being prejudice against an arrogant, but older and good-inside, "Mr. Darcy."

The differences starts from there. The initial meeting happened 5 years ago, so this is a second chance (Persuasion, any one?). This "Lizzy" is more spiteful than the original, in this adoption, "Lizzy" is determined to dig up some dark secrets she was sure "Mr. Darcy" has and expose everything to the world. There seems to be various elements from other male leads in Austin's books mixed into this "Mr. Darcy". He is strict and harsh and he is obviously still angry at how "Lizzy" left the first time. Like other adoptions before this, they showed "Mr. Darcy" owns a copy of "Pride and Prejudice" (lol, he even has a specific spot he likes the book to be). This is a bit of a police procedural, so romance is not the only thing here. Finally, Lizzy with her family is vastly different, and she doesn't seem to have 5 sisters (but who knows, maybe one will show up, since there's a Mr. Bingley type character in the show).

Time will tell if this show is going to be any good, but so far, it's a decent start. I will keep watching.

Kiirsten Oct 30 2014 6:26 pm I think i will not want Pride and Prejudice to end.... I definitely want the 2 lead prosecutor actor/actress to have the relationship they were meant for. But the second lead investigator is a dark horse HOTTIE who deserves his own true love too.m. This could be developed into the story as it goes along. I am also hoping that the Head Prosecutor ACE boss character will not be revealed to be a conspirator with the criminal world. There was kind of an eerie vibe to the look the criminal Dad gave him through the blinds... I think ACE is the SEXY one in this show. I want to like him and see him have his own sweet and successful love story. Mmmm he is really fine in those suits... But lets get a shower scene once. Please? Keep the the cases EDGY and REAL. Those are the best and just add to the overall charm and feel of a great dramedy. And lastly, i really hope there is no meanspirited backstabbing between the characters. P.S. peterh (below) is a DONKEY POOP and probably just a drama bomber from a current rival K-Drama series.... And Peterh if you want to make an even slightly cohesiive and convinving public comment, you may want to go back and complete elementary school for basic grammar and sentance construction. Your simple mindedness is also maling a generalized comparison of two dissimilar story plots based on them having the same three word title. That is so shallow and unimaginative. Try looking at the meaning of the words "pride" and "prejudice". They have relativity in ALL facets of our society, including Law, relationships, the human condition... So, whoever you may be and for whatever reason you felt it necessary to impart your baseless negative criticisms on PaP, chill baby. And come up with something better than Donkey Poop. I think that's what irritated me most....geez. FIGHTING PRIDE AND PREDJUDICE! Smiley face, smiley face, heart, heart, heart.

peterh Oct 30 2014 1:32 am another typical korean show where the female because stupid for his ex boyfriend, gotta love the sexist culture. ex boyfriend is a playboy and not really convincing prosecutor, more like a chaebol son. But who cares about the story right, as long we get the chance to gaze at hot guys right guys?

show is a donkey poop, even has the nerve to steal the title pride and Prejudice which meaning has no connection what soever.

but its fans of the show wouldn't know that, and probably dont care. You wondering why im ranting, is to warn would be viewers to STAY AWAY FROM THIS DONKEY POOP GO WATCH MISAENG YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED.

Dr FE JOSEFA G. NAVA, PhD Oct 29 2014 7:31 pm I think I will enjoy this movie series. But I just wonder if there isn't any title copyright since the original Pride and Prejudice is a novel written by Jane Austen. Please clear this up. I was actually expecting this Korean drama will take after Jane Austen's plot with a Korean setting and enhancement.

jeusc Oct 29 2014 3:49 pm I like this drama. I'm hopeful this is gonna be interesting til the end. Why did HYM walked out on KDC when she learned about him being a prosecutor? What's with the old torn paper? I hope the plot won't be dragging and the energy would surpass the first two episodes.

I think this drama is going to be a hit. ;)

BTW, i'm becoming a Choi Jin-Hyuk fan..

Tap Oct 29 2014 5:46 am Guys can somebody explain to me what the torn paper is... the one that Yeol Moo saw in Dong-chi's book in episode 2... is that a receipt or something else?

yanggg Oct 28 2014 5:02 pm OMG, this drama is great! Episode 1 and 2 were both great. Beak Jin Hee and Choi Jin Hyuk and Lee Tae Hwan <333 OTP. Damn, I have to wait another week for the next episode... ):

parkchora Oct 28 2014 3:30 am I've watched episode 1 and so far, it's great! Love baek jin hee and choi jin hyuk. Can't wait for episode 2.

kara Oct 02 2014 9:56 am Baek Jin Hee is damn cute, but wish she take on more roles like Tanashili from Empress Ki, she was amazing in it!!

Petra Oct 01 2014 11:40 am lol... I kind o hoped it will be modern korean version of Austen's novel :D

Renee Gatmaitan Sep 29 2014 4:58 am Can't wait to watch my favorite talented actor Choi Jin Hyuk again...hope you win the Best Supporting Award at Seoul Drama Awards - good luck !!! Keep up the good work !

cherlyn Sep 28 2014 9:10 am i love baek jin hee and i don't want a love line between them :(

Noork Sep 20 2014 3:49 am I''ll watch absolutely. I like these two actors especially choi jin hyuk ,he's my fav actor. He's very handsome and brilliant actor

Somalia Sep 20 2014 1:21 am WOW. You two are just snatching those roles! Haha. It's good thing these two actors are so talented and so charismatic on screen. One thing though, I hope Choi Jin Hyuk is ok. He looked a bit gaunt in 'Fated to Love'. Such a handsome, talented man. I really hope both him and Baek Jin-hee's popularity is long lasting and they don't work themselves too hard. Quality of work is always important. I hope they picked a good story to show the rest of the world! <3

KimTan Sep 19 2014 3:45 am Choi Jin Hyuk again -___-

it's not even a year after Heirs, and he already did 3 other dramas.
