The best stories are the ones that leave you shaken. They are those that really make one reflect on life and how one has been living so far. That is Miss Hammurabi's effect on me right now. It has given me hope once again - hope that the good will prevail, hope that people are kind, hope that life will be better.

The stories of every case that the legal team had to face and how they reflected their personal lives was smooth and helped in the character development of each one. The character development of each and every character was also clear and evident from the main ones to the supporting ones. The viewer will be able to witness the characters' views get shaken and shifted which make them grow as a person/character or even break them. Every decision each character made was reflected in how their story concluded in the series. Bad decisions that only protected one's self interest and desire for power eventually led to the downfall of these characters. I especially liked how the older generation also grew because of the younger generation - they realized that their ways were not working anymore and were enlightened by the new ones leaving them reassured of a better future.

Each episode had a distinct issue they wanted to emphasize. Not every issue was resolved they way we would want it to be but they were surely loyal to how the law would have it. Sure, sometimes they favored the less powerful or less privileged but they made sure that the other side was also explained so that both sides of the story can be seen. What is consistent with every case though is that it showed that every human being has a good side and that we are all just struggling in life. It also displayed how sympathy plays a big role in living life as human beings and being kinder to one another. Not to mention the idea that every person also breaks at some point. But most of all, it resonated with hope.

As an Infinite fan, I am definitely proud of L (Kim Myungsoo) in this drama because it shows his growth as an actor. Besides his cute soft moments, I especially liked his fierce angry scenes because it showed his duality and versatility as an actor. Some moments were still awkward and need improvement to be more natural but the thing with L is, is that he is continuously learning and improving so I have no doubt he will do better in his next project.

This drama is definitely one that made me more aware of myself as a human being. It isn't a light one but there are light moments despite the heavy ones which just goes to show how life really is and that every human being goes through something similar.
