The Scale of Providence (2008)

I really enjoyed this drama, I was pretty much glued to the screen for the entire 16 episodes :P

About a guy who's girlfriend dies and in the midst of his claim of innocence his younger brother takes the blame. As his brother searches for the "killer" more is revealed, he does his best to free the false charge and find the true perpetrator. In his search for the truth, he makes new acquaintances and realizes things may not have been as simple as he originally thought they were. What is the true scale of providence? How do you weigh one crime against another? Do you punish them all the same? Does money and power influence your justice? Can you forgive and be happy again?...

Cast: Woo Bin (Lee Sang Yoon) was my absolute favorite character, I loved him so much, I felt for him, when he'd cry I'd cry, when he hurt I hurt. He was so pitiful, it was sometimes hard to watch him struggle. His biggest and only mistake was being swayed by his mother. Joon Ha (Song Chang Eui) I also felt for him, his struggle to set his brother free was touching and painful. I loved the moments between him and Woo Bin. Young Joo, a girl who is in love with Woo Bin, a girl who's love stands the test of time - we should all love like that. I really liked her character, she's a bit of a tomboy but cute ;P and I totally shipped them. All the side characters were enjoyable to watch, there really wasn't a character that I didn't like seeing.

Music: I remember hearing at least three songs and I liked them all, but they weren't played often enough for me to grow attached to any of them.

I would definitely re-watch this drama (honestly, if I had the time I'd re-watch it right now)

The ending was good, and I was very happy with two things :D There does seem to be a little missing or not finished - but I think they intended to leave it that way, so we know their fight for finding corrupt officials wasn't over.

Overall, I definitely recommend this drama!
