1. [+402, -4] I feel like we shouldn't mess with huge works like this...

2. [+332, -9] It's going to end up a legal romantic melodrama, don't call it the Korean remake ㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+225, -3] If you're not going to get it right, don't mess with it...

4. [+142, -1] Aw man, this is an American drama I really like too

5. [+112, -3] I think it'll turn out great if they put effort into the production. It'll be important in who they cast as the female lead.

6. [+44, -0] I hope the producers have a clear understanding of the drama? The drama's about a woman like Hilary, not some ajumma who's sick of being a housewife and getting involved with some younger man while helping others through the law.

7. [+42, -1] I'm worried that they're messing with something they can't handle. The female lead is an amazing character who is no tonly just a mother and wife but an amazing lawyer. What director or cast can properly express that? This drama isn't just some romantic storyline like most Korean dramas are used to.

8. [+30, -0] Hmm.. I think it'll be hard. A Korean remake will probably turn the drama into something about a politician husband + lawyer wife cheating on each other while the mother-in-law is some hysteric slave driver. Another makjang drama in the works.
