The network will finish the drama next week (thank god) and afterwards follow up with the Kim Myung Min helmed Law School but sounds super dull but with KMM playing the male lead I expected acting fireworks everything. His counter part as a fellow law school professor is Lee Jung Eun and having two award winning veterans spar is like candy to a baby.
