Cleverly written, Law School made sure its watchpoint is clear and felt!

Parading an intoxicating bundle of surprises each week, Law School is quite an engrossing treat, even if the whole premise is chatty. Unlike the previous legal dramas we’ve seen before, tackling one murder case appears favorable to the narrative. Additionally, the unique setup of unraveling the culprit behind a cryptic murder case is truly awe-inspiring.

Law School Mid-Series Musings

I’m impressed with how the writing of Law School is designed to highlight its relatively big cast. Flowing to a simple legal crime story, the plot twists are interestingly giving off makjang-vibe level, but in a polished and sensible way.

Our goal since day 1 is to determine Prosecutor Seo’s murderer. Halfway through the series, we have been meticulously ruling out possibilities based on the teachers and students that could really be involved. Thanks to its efficient cast, the uncomplicated plot continuously intrigues reeling us to look forward to its direction each week.

Instead of presenting various cases in an episodal setting, Law School valiantly established one conflict to rule it all. But it still sparingly touches on various law-related issues that the public can learn from. Inserting the legal clinic would also provide variety in the story because at some point the 16-episode trial of Professor Yang would exhaust us as viewers.

What To Expect In The 2nd Half of The Series?

Seung-jae’s story is about to be unraveled in the second stretch of the series. Bok-ki and Ye-beom might add a surprise development in the drama as well. Obviously, that would be crucial moments to the story. Along with that, Jong-hoon’s quest to bring out to the world Assemblyman Go’s quenchless greed and evil is expected.

The diligent law school students would also come to terms with their personal goals like Ji-ho’s plan to indict Prosecutor Jin. It cannot be avoided as well that Kang Dan will emerge in the story and Lee Man Ho, as dangerous as he may seem, will still provide the needed evil spice or a redeeming moment in the narrative.

Don’t miss out on the enthralling episodes of Law School on Netflix!
