Average story saved by Actors and Direction but destroyed by chopping off episodes.

Story: Story revolves around the JH(ML), a lawyer who charges only 1000 Won from his clients who are mostly those who can't afford a lawyer. It's his story about why he do what he is been doing and solving cases.

Characters: JH(ML): We see him as a really funny and non serious guy who is very intelligent and uses unorthodox ways to solve cases. But he has a really serious and sad side too which we see in the flashback.
MR(FL): She is forced to work for the ML by her grandfather, she is the sane one from the office trio. She is also funny and gets annoyed with the ML much often.
MJ: He works with the ML and behave very much similar to the ML often. He is very loyal and always looks out for the ML.

Acting: NGM: As always be is amazing, his comedy, expressions and breaking the forth wall is really funny. He is extremely good with the serious or sad scenes too. He has an amazing chemistry with KJE and his love interest from past. But sometimes his comedy felt a little over the top, a little bit of over acting when he does comedy.
KJE: She is really awesome, most of the time she has to get annoyed because of the ML and she does it so funnily. She has amazing back and forth with NMG. She doesn't have any serious scenes but she is really good at doing comedy.

Likes: 1) Amazing chemistry between the two leads. Their back and forth is so funny and interesting to watch.
2)There are few really good cases that were solved.
3)The comedy and friendship between the Trio, that is JH, MR and MJ.
4)Backstory, it is nothing new but really interesting to watch because of the acting and the new characters introduced.
5) Really loved the OST here.
6) Amazing switching of emotions by NGM, at one time he is very sad and serious and just is a blink he is behaving different.
7) Beautiful chemistry between NGM and Lee Chung Ah(his fiance in drama).
There are many other stuff to like also.

Dislike:1)Episodes were cut from 16 to 14 and then again to 12. So they story was not executed properly.
2) Villian not properly developed and lack in his character.
3)The FL is very much underused here, she is really talented actor but here she is a main supporting character.
4)Some comedy scenes felt very over the top.
5) Extremely low focus on characters other than the ML.
6)There are only 12 episodes yet you will find one or two filler episodes.

Overall: It's definitely an above average drama but it could have been a lot better if there were few more episodes. The story felt incomplete and the characters other than the trio were put in without much of thinking. If you want to watch a drama which has comedy, some crime solving and couple of serious episodes then you will like this.

Note: The last episode that is episode 12 was a really well done and executed really good. Due to less episode the drama felt rushed.

Rating as critique: 8.5
Rating as casual viewer:9

Also, the drama was cut short because of some issue between the production company and the writer.
