Juvenile Justice

Juvenile Justice | Official Trailer | Netflix [ENG SUB]
The Swoon
Another Korean courtroom drama like Extraordinary Attorney Woo, like that show we have an intelligent female lawyer. This one isn't disabled, but she is carrying some deep dark secret that I expect will be revealed eventually. We've already had a mystery man from her past show up, and now in episode 7 a judge from some legal case (she was involved in years ago) has shown up.

The shows digs into a series of juvenile cases. The first one was a doozy and our girl proved her mettle. She is definitely a hard ass, some might even call her a royal bitch, but she knows the law and she knows the difference between right and wrong and by gum she's going to get to the bottom of it, whether it's problems with homes for juvenile offenders or stomping on true love by prosecuting the "gigolo bastard" who seduced a retarded girl.

Tonight's case was about high schoolers cheating on exams and I kind of wonder why they even bother to bring it to court. I suspect they put in the show to show how crazy the competition is to get admitted into a university. That's mostly what the show is about - problems with Korean society, and it's all the parents fault that their kids are getting in trouble.
