Synopsis
“LOVE & LAW” is a tale about a man involved in a divorce lawsuit, and his lawyer’s attempt to salvage his money and love. The story includes an exciting turn of events when romance is found during the process of the lawsuit.
Woo Lee-kyung worked at a major law firm as a secretary when she fell head-over-heels in love with Byun-hyuk, a rising star attorney in the firm. They fell madly in love with each other and ended up living together for three years. However, one day, Byun-hyuk decided to leave her, and all she had left were his law school books. The despaired Lee-kyung studied day and night with Byun-hyuk’s books, and soon passed the bar exam herself. Lee-kyung ends up opening her own tiny office with no employees. Her first task is to represent Han Min-kook, who winds up in a huge divorce lawsuit that could cost him an incredible sum of $100 million dollars. This case also lands Lee-kyung in a funny, cute tale of romance. Meanwhile, the story takes an odd twist when it is discovered that Han Min-kook’s ex-wife, Lee Ae-ri, is Lee-kyung’s good friend, and the lawyer representing Ae-ri is none other than Byun-hyuk himself. At the end of the day, Lee-kyung is left with the challenge of facing a showdown with her friend, Ae-ri, as well as her first love, Byun-hyuk. — taken from MBC Global Media

This is one of the best comedies of 2008. Han Min Gook is such an interesting and likeable character (good acting by Lee Soon Jae).
I believe it is the last series Ryu Soo Young did before going to the army. I also recommend 18 vs 29, and Bad Couple. I enjoyed this comedies very much. You can see that RYS is a good, versatile (and very handsome) actor. Love his voice too.

Perfect movie, romantic, a little bit of heartache, comedy in some parts, failed in business, etc… I love the story somehow, and it was like fated that the famous rich Han Min Gook fell in love with his lawyer, and I guess they were well matched..and his ex wife do not have such luck I guess , in fact I do not like his ex wife cos she is always a back stabber in other movies and she wont be fit as main actress. I believe in FATE so this story is all about FATE..thanks to the person who create this story worth to watch
