Story: 7.5/10
It was interesting and refreshing to see the Judge's perspective in a court drama instead of the usual lawyer versus prosecutor setup, but I had my worries about the Romance tag there, which proved to be correct, this is very innocent and lacking in terms of romance so do not expect any skinship or kisses at all, and you'll be pleasantly surprised.
The ending was a little rushed and disappointing though, a lot of things left unanswered regarding Oh Reum's "Oppa" and how she came to know him.
Acting/Cast: 8.5/10
Go Ah Ra was alright, despite what people say and I agree with most of it, I think the issue lies within the script and not the actress herself. Kim Myung Soo acted his part as the cold judge that slowly started to be more considerate of the defendants, it was nice but felt like the progress was too fast at times, and stalled, or even stepped back at times. Of course, nothing much to say about Sung Dong Il, his experience in acting really shows as he portrayed his emotions perfectly. Loving smile when presented with his daughters and wife, strict but caring with his co-workers, and angry with the people that abuse their power or forget their roles in the court.
Music: 9.0/10
Soundtrack was great and full of emotions, whenever something was going wrong I felt the instruments play on my heart's strings. :')
Rewatch Value: 6.0/10
I think the reason for the low score is mainly because of the ending. The drama wasted so much time on pointless scenes instead of clarifying each character's background properly. Especially so with Oh Reum and her chaebol "Oppa". I also wish they spent more time on side characters like the single mother or the one that had miscarriage, but seeing how they lacked the time to give closure on the main characters, I can't help but feel I was overestimating the show.
Overall: 8.0/10
I think it's quite enjoyable if you come with little expectations like I did. Do not expect much of the romance tag, and do not expect closure for every case.
Because this is a show about the characters gaining experience and making progress to be better judges, rather than a show about punishing bad people and putting them in jail. Some will be put in jail but the show will end with some lawsuit(s) halfway done.
