Can't lose

Despite a stable support team and the chemistry between the lead couple, I do not find this drama engaging enough for me to finish episode 4. For, unlike Wedding, which also sees a couple getting married without knowing each for long, the only thing they seem to do is but to argue with each other day in day out, on literarily everything. And unlike Wedding, there doesn't seem any emotional depth or self-reflection in either of the lawyer couple.

Though I have watched CJW in Everybody Has Secrets in a role different from her earlier television ones that shot her to international stardom, I was still taken aback by her in Can't Lose. To extend one's range is a constant challenge but to make a right choice isn't always an easy task.

On the other hand, although I wasn't impressed by Yoon Sang-hyon in Secret Garden, I find him a rather different actor in this charitable lawyer.
