Law and the City

Mak — Sat, 05 Jul 2025 15:36:02 +0000

A senior associate lawyer in his ninth year, An Ju Hyeong seems cold-blooded, but no one can deny his competence in the field. He became a lawyer simply because he found logic and cases interesting, but from the start of his career, he never grasped the idea that lawyers are supposed to protect the weak, uphold justice, and make a difference in the world. Although he's a veteran among associates and has even set a new salary record, he refuses to open his own practice, finding it too troublesome. But now, the once-peaceful walls of his workplace are beginning to crack.

On the other hand, Kang Hui Ji, a junior associate at Johwa Law Firm, is a social butterfly who always ends up surrounded by people. She believes that “if you change one person's life, you have changed that person's entire world.” Whether she is lacking or overflowing, she is a confident and honest person.

Alongside them are Bae Mun Jeong, Cho Chang Won, and Ha Sang Gi. These five lovable law firm attorneys struggle and grow through various cases, both inside and outside the courtroom, while building solid friendships by having meals together.

Smile Code

Dargom Bes — Wed, 13 Nov 2024 22:33:58 +0000

It tells the story of a down-and-out part-time talk show actress and an aloof male audience member suffering from alexithymia who get close to each other and heal each other. A love story of a woman who is funny to the end and a man who can’t laugh, a love contest begins. However, what connects the romance is not just the emotions between men and women, but also the struggling urban youths living in Shanghai. On and off the stage in the play, the spicy yet observational complaints hit the pain points of life, and the humorous ridicule is light, but it is also full of optimism and open-mindedness.

A Date With the Future

Mak — Tue, 22 Aug 2023 00:40:43 +0000

A decade ago, a deadly earthquake almost claimed the life of a high school girl named Xu Lai. It was only the quick thinking and bravery of a young firefighter Jin Shi Chuan that saved her. As he rescued her from the falling rubble, she became smitten with him as they made a comforting “promise” – and when they parted, she resolved to seek him out at all costs.

Now, 10 years later, Jin Shi Chuan has risen to the rank of captain. Xu Lai has become a news reporter. When a major accident happens on a highway Jin Shi Chuan saves her again. While she recognizes him right away, he does not do likewise – and thinks she is just a trouble-making reporter. To make matters worse, her report is taken out of context, leading many social media posters to criticize the fire department!

But Xu Lai’s love for him has not diminished – and she resolves to fix this and win his heart at all costs. She becomes a dog trainer – helping train special fire-fighting canines who can help rescuers in their efforts. This brings her closer to Jin Shi Chuan. But he carries deep scars from past hurt. Can Xu Lai’s love help mend the pain?
