Now, I haven't watched the American version of Suits so I can't speak in terms of comparison, but I did talk with a friend who decided to watching the US version while I watched the KR version and we compared storylines, and from what they said, it was pretty spot on minus some differences that can be accounted to writing/directing choice and cultural influences. I thoroughly enjoyed the drama from start to finish, and more than the storylines, I enjoyed the cast. The acting was spot on—having not seen Jang Dong Gun in such a long time, this was a perfect return to acting for him. He fit the character spot on and I enjoyed Kang Seok's interactions with Yeon Woo. Park Hyungsik also continues to do a good job in being one of the few actors who makes me cry when he cries on camera. Chae Jung An was a star! I so enjoyed when we got to see more of her as the drama went along, and I wish the drama had gone a little further with Secretary Hong's relationship with Kang Seok.
I do have smaller minor issues in terms of Yeon Woo's character and how he tends to flip flop rather than stay somewhere on a constant path, and the story to me dragged along towards the middle, but picked up closer to the end. The last few episodes were a little fast paced and could have been done earlier, but they still worked out pretty well.
In terms of romance or bromance, Kang Seok and Yeonwoo's friendship as well as Kang Seok and Chae Geun Sik's rivalry, and the relationship between Kang Seok and Partner Kang were all wonderful to watch. I felt so so on Yeonwoo and Jinah, but they were a minor cute edition that I didn't mind all too much, though I wish we could have seen a little more of Jinah's backstory.
Overall, I could watch this again from certain parts. It was a really chill watch (til the second half when I was screaming) that I could rebinge anytime. The ending was open ended so while the chances are sim to none for a second season, it could totally be done (and with the great ratings, who knows).
