[Korean Drama Review] Big Mouth

 


Strange things happen when an unsucessful lawyer accidentally takes on a murder case and tries to get to the bottom of the hidden truth.

Park Chang Ho (Lee Jong Suk) is a third-rate lawyer who has a measly 10% winning rate. He likes to talk big and gets the nickname Big Mouth. One day, he takes on a strange murder case that turns his whole worthless life upside down. From an inconspicuous lawyer, he turns into a genious swindler nicknamed Big Mouse.

Park Chang Ho’s wife, Go Mi Ho (Im Yoon Ah), works as a nurse. She helped her husband become a lawyer by supporting him financially and psychologically. Go Mi Ho learns that her husband is fingered as the swindler Big Mouse and attempts to clear his name.



Had completed watching this Korean drama - Big Mouth

I enjoyed the progression of each episode, which led me to follow the series closely. Though it might be slightly draggy at the later episodes. Certain occurrence might also appear coincidence and predictable, but it was well-executed as a whole.

The "gathering of evidence and revealing of hidden truth" moment was definitely epic and kept me at the edge of my seat. In order to grasp the story well, you definitely have to follow it closely. The finale had an unexpected turn-out which was quite sad. However, it put a good end to it.

Never put someone to test as circumstances might change and prove you otherwise, in an unexpected way you least expected.  

Kudos to Lee Jong-Suk, Lim Yoon-A and Kim Joo-Hun acting capabilities. Nicely portrayed!
