Season 1: Finding the lost self.

I tried to watch this drama a few years ago, and I tried very hard to understand it, but unfortunately I couldn't understand it and couldn't appreciate it. An unwilling new lawyer, a suspicious retired police officer, the plot style of black and white scenes seemed so dull and depressing at the time. In the next few years, I tried again, but I still couldn't do anything about it. I can't help but feel a little lost. I can't appreciate such a high-scoring series. What's wrong?

Fortunately, I mustered up the courage to try the show again this year. Unlike in the past, this year's it fascinated me and I couldn't stop it, and even secretly regretted that I missed it for so many years. Perhaps, there is also a vague relationship between the audience and the drama. In the past, "the time has not come", but now "the time, the place and the people are in harmony". Thank you for your experience in the past few years, just like Jimmy who never gave up searching for yourself in the play; thank you for our perfect reunion many years later, and silently applaud each other.
