INNOCENT DEFENDANT KOREAN DRAMA REVIEW 

Hello Everyone! For my 8th blog I will be sharing another Korean Drama entitled INNOCENT DEFENDANT. For me this drama is one of a kind because I don’t always watch dramas with these kind of genres. It is very nice to try watching new dramas with different genres and if you also want to try something new aside from romance dramas then I highly recommend this show to you because this is indeed a very good story.

After watching this drama I was really happy and amazed because it ended happily and I really liked it I even recommended it to my father @TRB and he liked it too. So I decided to make a blog about this new Korean drama series, I can say it is really worth sharing. So please scroll down and continue reading this blog for more information about this wonderful drama series.

SCENES IN THE DRAMA

This is the part where Park Jung Woo was startled because his cellmates told him that he was imprisoned because he killed his wife and his daughter. He cannot believe what they were saying because he was very close to his family and he was a really loving father and husband. Even his co-workers and his close friends cannot believe that Park Jung Woo can do such a thing

When he woke up at the cell.he cannot remember anything except when they celebrated his daughters birthday

This was the last thing Park Jung Woo ever remembered. When he was questioned by his lawyer he always reply that it was his daughter's birthday last night and they even celebrated it happily with his wife. He also said that how can he do that when he loved his family so much.

When his best friend Prosecutor Kang Jun-hyuk visited him and questioned him again if he really doesn't remember anything, he cried and told his best friend that the only thing he can remember was celebrating his Ha Yeon's Birthday, his daughter.

This is the part where he cried in front of Prosecutor Kang Jun-hyuk, His best friend to tell him that all of this isn't true and that he didn't kill his family. But then the horror of realization hit him when his best friend told him that everything was real and true. Every time Park Jung Woo cries at the drama I cant help but cry too maybe because of the things going on in the drama and because Ji Sung is really very good in playing his role.

This part is when Park Jung Woo reviewed the details of his first trial to find any clues or any thing that can help him remember because the next trial is fast approaching. There is also a part where Lee Sung-Gyoo the guy sitting beside him asked Park Jung Woo if what are the consequences when you abduct or kidnap someone. Without Park Jung Woo knowing that the guy sitting beside him has a very big role in this case too because Lee Sung-Gyoo is the one who kidnapped his Daughter Ha Yeon.
