"Your Honor" is ENA's new drama, revolving around the story of two fathers who are always devoted to protecting their children.
They are Song Pan Ho (Son Hyun Joo) - a respected judge with a strong sense of justice who has lived a spotless life and Kim Kang Heon (Kim Myung Min) - a cold and ruthless crime boss with a majestic appearance.
Officially aired since August 12, "Your Honor" has aired 6 episodes so far, with average viewership ratings. According to Nielsen Korea, the show opened with a rating of 1.736% and increased slightly with each episode. In episode 6, the show recorded a rating of 4.334%.
Besides the content gradually becoming more intense, the impressive acting of the talented duo Son Hyun Joo - Kim Myung Min, the appearance of Jung Eun Chae - who plays the role of prosecutor Kang So Young in the last 2 episodes (episodes 5, 6) from expectations is receiving disappointment.
Accordingly, Kang So Young is portrayed as a strong and upright person. She is also a model for a young prosecutor, always pursuing the mission of eliminating corruption.
However, the crew's attempt to direct the character with a masculine image: wearing a short jacket, smoking cigarettes and swearing seems to be going against the original description. On the other hand, Jung Eun Chae's inflexible acting makes the character Kang So Young even less attractive.
According to Newsen, although there were still some comments praising the actress's appearance, the majority expressed disappointment. They said that Jung Eun Chae was very pretty but did not fit the character. In addition, the director's direction as well as the character's appearance also received many negative responses.
According to Korean newspapers, because of this reason, the audience's interest in the film has halved. Along with that, the reason the audience has become more strict with the female star born in 1986 is because she has 14 years of acting experience but has a clumsy performance on screen.
Previously, the actress appeared in 12 films. Notable among them were the role of Prime Minister Gu Seo Ryung in the film "The King: Eternal Monarch", co-starring with Lee Min Ho and the role of Miss Hyeon Ju (real Anna) in the film "Anna" with Suzy .
The media assessed that the haughty and attractive beauty of co-star Suzy is suitable for wealthy tycoon characters. Thanks to that, her name is widely known. However, with the failed comeback in the movie "Your Honor", the public will be more strict with Jung Eun Chae when her two new movies, "Pachinko 2" and "Jungnyeon: The Star Is Born", are aired one after another.
