The 16-part TV series, starring Kim Hye-soo and Ju Ji-hoon, revolved around two lawyers Jung Geum-ja (Kim) and Yoon Hee-jae (Ju), who had to fight tooth and nail like hyenas to survive in their world. Thanks to its star-studded cast and finely crafted storyline, the soap opera had been sailing strongly in terms of viewership. Since its premiere on Feb. 21, ratings had hovered around 9-12 percent.

I have felt so rewarded as an actor.”
