Lee Jong-Suk returns in a role tailor-made for him
After three long years, Lee Jong-Suk returns - and he's not the man you remember. As Ahn Ju-Hyeong in Law and the City, he's a cold, calculating legal mind with zero interest in being the hero. Suited up and sharper than ever, his chilling transformation is already stealing the spotlight and is also setting the tone for one of the most anticipated comebacks in K-drama.

A battle of values at the heart of the story
On the other end of the legal spectrum is Kang Hui-Ji (played by Moon Ga-young), a compassionate, idealistic attorney who believes that even small acts can change lives. While Ju-Hyeong sticks strictly to logic and the rulebook, Hui-Ji leads with heart. Their clash of values creates an emotional battleground at the firm and it will be interesting to see if their opposing philosophies will push them apart or pull them into something neither expected?
