The Partner (2009) Korean Drama

This is another Korean drama that i watched during the final exam on KBS World.XD This Korean series is titled "The Partner", it's about two law firms that struggles to defend the accussed and those around them. Two brothers work in a two seperate law firms they don't really like each other. (for some reasons) The story starts with Kang Eun-ho (Kim Hyun-joo) trying to look for a job in Seoul to support her son. She got herself a job through her grandfather...and end up tangling with her charismatic and ruthless attorney colleague Lee Tae-Jo (Lee Dong-wook).

They always "argue and fight", one time when Tae-jo wants to break free from Eun-ho grasp because she was reasoning and holding him tightly, and he doesn't want to listen to her, as he was trying to break free, he struggled too hard and farted...HAHAHAHAHA...i've never seen such kind of scene in any Hollywood or HK shows...
This law series is so different compared to those i watched from Hong Kong TVB series, maybe i'm new to the Korean TV culture, i find their humour really cute, square, and little harsh and straighforward sometimes, which can really hurt people feelings, but i think it's their culture to be funny in such a way.

The way they handle cases is a little maybe alot different compared to the HK series. Attorneys calling their client a midget, clients touching their attorney boobies in the courtroom...so weird
In the law firm that Eun-ho and Tae-jo work there's this really cute & weird character - Choi Sun-yi (Shin Yi), she doesn't really show any emotion when she speaks. She's like "blur", but not blur, when one of her colleague shouted at her, she end up telling herself she likes that guy...LOL
(She's the one in the bottom middle, the guy on her left is the one who shouted at her) The main characters are having a fight in the scene below and their colleagues got a "free show"...LOL
Anyway, i will let you guys...i mean girls...to feast your eyes on Lee Dong-wook...LOL, you won't be seeing him for a while, he's currently serving his mandatory military service in South Korea, so he won't be acting for a while.
The series ended last week on KBS World. So you gotta buy the DVD when it's in stores if you haven't or want to watch it.
