Have to say, I hear your voice just the made the top of my list :)
Kudos to the scriptwriter first of all; to be able to make such a realistic movie while including a bit of supernatural!! I love the suspense, which grabs you to your seat from the very first episode. The suspense, the romance, and even the light-mood makes this drama of one the best shows I've watched! If you are looking for a drama which will make you laugh, cry, just pause to say "what the f**k" and get you riveted to your screen to the point of making you addicted to the very end- this one is definitely it!
Story:- Amazing, original, not-a-single-second-boring
Acting:- From the secretary in the public defenders' office to the bold Jang Hye Song,the oh-so-eye-candy Park Soo Ha, and the ruthless Min Joon Gook, the kids, every character plays their part so well, you will be left speechless.
Music :- Awesome =D i don't think i will be able to get the opening out of my head so soon XD
Rewatch Value:- usually i don't re-watch non-comedy drama (for instance master piece 1 litre of tears, there's no me watching that again), but IHYV yes definitely!!
Honestly, i don't even imagine someone who finished this drama giving IHYV a negative review.
WATCH IT NOW!

There is suspense, romance, a little action and the trials aren't boring. The way the writers use the fact that So Ha can read minds is excellent. I enjoyed the small things like when Hye Sung's mom wrote on her hand and then later in the drama we see Hye Sung writing on her hand. There are morals to the story as it tries to convey a way to live life. I like what Hye Sung's mom says about not hating and that from birth we have a limited time to love (paraphrasing). Even though it is intense at times, I still came away with an over all good feeling. The character growth is the highlight as all the characters stayed true to their personalities as they learned hard lessons and go through some pretty horrible traumas and grow. Even though there was an extension of episodes from 16 to 18, it was well done and the ending was great.
The acting is daebak!!! Lee Bo Young as Hye Sung was perfect. She plays an excellent flawed character. She is really pretty too. I think her chemistry with both the leads was good. Lee Jong Suk as Park So Ha is a character that I will remember for a long time. I think he really came into his own as a male lead. His chemistry with Lee Bo Young although she is older (I don't know why so many people have a problem with age difference) was good. He was definitely a man. I have read that a lot of people don't like Yoon Sang Hyun. I don't really understand that. I have loved him since Take Care of the Young Lady. His portrayal of Attorney Cha was right on. Lee Da Hee as Do Yeon was also good. I was prepared to hate her, but ended with respecting her. I think Jung Woong In as Joon Kook would rival Yoon Je Moon in the bad guy department. He is really good at making a person hate the character.
As for the music. Even if you don't watch this drama, then check out Jung Yup's "Why Did You Come Now?" and Echo's "Every Single Day" and Shin Seung Hoon's "That Word You Cannot Hear".
I will probably rewatch this at some point.
I recommend this drama for everyone...no matter what genre you prefer.

Story: 9/10 nothing really new, who can find anything orginal in family dramas?
Acting: 10/10 I really like the casting in this. The leads have great chemistry and they are too adorable together. The family chemistry is good too. Some of the best comedic scenes ever are in this drama!
Music: 8/10 not really memorable music, but some songs that play through the song & the ending theme is nice to listen to.
Rewatch value: 8/10 it's 45 eps. so I won't watch the whole thing, but I will watch some of the funniest moments in k-drama history(in my opinion of course)
I think this is really cute and you should watch it if you like the leads, comedy, romance or family dramas, or you just like long dramas, you'll like this drama.

I Hear your voice wasn't by any means a groundbreaking drama...what can be original nowadays anyways? However its the way the writer executed the plot and gave each character a likability factor that made me realize that originality doesn't bake a delicious drama cake. This show had a recipe that i've hardly tasted before in dramaland, I honestly fell in love with 90% of the characters and the remaining 10% had a place in my heart filled with pity and hope. I hated no one to be honest and thats because in the end i learned things from each and everyone of them. This shows explores its themes very well and you won't feel like you lave to keep on licking the plate to get them... the lessons are just there! Lee Bo Young was the standout performer to me, her acting was fiery as lawyer Jang and i can't picture any one else playing her as she did with such ease. The remaining cast as well did a a phenomenal job of course, they all had great chemistry and worked off each other well.
All in all this is no less than a must see and an instant classic in my book..well done drama well done.

Story: 10/10 because the characters are interesting, some more than others I have to admit, but this story-line is great.
Acting: 9/10 because I think that the actors/actresses got their roles down well. I think Sun Woo & Na Na have great chemistry! I look forward to their scenes after watching a certain episode(won't spoil who are currently watching it now(just started watching it now)). I think the main leads chemistry was cute.
Music: 10/10 because I'm loving the OST to bits. So many songs that the cast sings is amazing. They can actually sing! Love most of the songs. There are people I've never seen before and I love the actors & actresses & wish to see more of them in the future. Some I've seen before & I think their roles in this are best yet. If you want to know who I've seen before or which cast members I've not seen before let me know on my channel. Also if you want to know what are my favorite songs in this, let me know on my channe too(if you wish).
Sorry of rambling again(IHYV review memories(even if it was today LOL)) XD
Rewatch value: 10/10 because I would love to see Sun Woo & Na Na scenes, the bromance, & the music.
I'll stop writing before I get ahead of myself. This drama will probably be in my top 10 dramas of 2013.

Anyway, it was great! The last episode was a little boring, but it was nice to watch for people who really love the show and don't want it to end. In my opinion, almost anyone could enjoy this show. It's interesting, and never got boring for me until the last episode! Also, I don't know if this was realistic on how South Korea runs in court, but it was interesting to me to see how it worked!

Story: 10/10 because it's the story we know and love. It stay true to the manga more than the original, but that doesn't mean that I liked the older Japanese version either.
Acting: 8.5/10 because I thought that the leads did a fantastic job. It might be stiff at first because it the first couple of episodes, but the acting gets a lot better. Nakatsu in this one is funny as heck also.
Music: 6/10 the only reason it's lower than the other one(2007) is that they used the same music(it was a while back when I watched it so I don't remember if some of the music changed).
Rewatch value: 10/10 because it the story we know & love, stays true to the manga, has some changes the made me like the story more, & the acting is great to me.
Remember: this is my personal opinion, if you don't like it, then that's fine.

This drama starts as a drama that people like me would expect... A DIFFERENT KIND OF DRAMA, one that ends with the stereotypes of what a Kdrama is, while not losing that korean charm that is the one that hooks most of us... Well im PRETTY dissapointed. Like most dramas it started EPICLY, i even imagined the day it finally ended and I came here to give it the 10, that by that time, i thought it deserved. It had great comedy, amazing thrill and suspense, and the character portrayal was such i could not pick a favorite. But, it all died mid through. The same pattern of your every day kdrama was adopted, the same melodramatic stuff, and I could start telling what would happened 2 to 3 episodes in advance... It had a glorious beginning, it was fair midway and TOTALLY crashed in the end. If you love your typical Kdrama, you will LOVE this, if you look for something refreshing and different, you will be satisfied for a short while only to be disappointed later on. The cast was great, they portrayed their roles VERY well! no complains there. I didnt sympathize much with Park So Haa midway in the drama but, it was ok (he reminded me a lot of his character in secret garden; but im used to characters being made for actors and not the actors actually portraying the characters) I particularly liked the antagonist. The way he had that "good guy/bad guy" switch was EPIC! (i would say more but im afraid I would be a spoiler)
The music too was great! Not that it had a wide variety of songs, I guess thats the reason I liked it. But the songs that did play were perfect for setting the mood.
The drama has its redeeming qualities, but if i had known it would have been more cheesy everyday kdrama and less trial lawyer/judge/prosecutor/defendant and accused action, I prob wouldnt have even started it. Its sad that for Kdramas to be a hit they have to be so typical and predictable. Anyways~ I give it an overall 6, cause it did have some awesome moments, if i kept thinking about how disappointed i was with it it would get a 3 or so xD BUT im trying not to dwell on that and remember instead the fun and thrilling moments.

Story: 10/10 because what can I say? This is my first j-drama after all. My first gender bender story-I think so. The plot was well-written in my personal opinion.
Acting: 10/10 because it was very comedic & I thought they got into their roles well. I've read the manga, & I like this version very much so. I couldn't choose between Sano & Nakatsu to be with Mizuki.
Music: 7/10 some of the BGMs are memorable to be like "be silent", and some were catchy theme songs, but not as memorable.
Rewatch value: 10/10 this was an amazing story. I would rewatch this drama over & over when I have time. I've watched this 3-4 times already.
If you like gender-bender stories, frienship, romantic-comedies, or plain old comedy, then you'll like this drama for sure.

Story: 10/10 this drama what got me into some of the police/detective dramas that I watched later on my Asian drama journey. It was well-written & the character development is well-done.
Acting: 10/10 because I love the main leads. I've never seen the lead actress before this drama, but I have seen Hiro & Oguri in different drama before this drama & I think this is the best roles for them. There was great bromance, The male(Shu) & female(Yuki) lead's chemistry was great too even though it was not a romantic-comedy.
Music: I love the BGMs to bits. The opening & ending theme were amazing. Some not memorable, but I can over look that.
Rewatch value: 10/10 the comedic moments in this drama is amazing. I've watched it 3 times all the way through, and many, many more times to watch the comedic moments in the drama.
I think the genres in this are the following:
Drama, Comedy, Mystery, Police, Crime & Friendship.
If you like any of this genres you should give it a try.

Story: 9.5/10 because the plot was well-written & the characters were written well. I think it captured what it was like in Korean in the 1930s at the time, because I don't really know Korea history, just knew that it was just very bad during that time.
Acting: 10/10 because this drama what this drama introduced me to Joo Won! He is an amazing actor! He can cry well in my opinion, when he cried, I cried with him! He really shined in this drama. He can be a total (censored)jerk, but he can be very sweet.
Music: 9/10 because the music was amazing! The theme song (the judgement I think it was called) was amazing & epic. Most of the songs were memorable, but not all.
Rewatch value: 8/10 because it was a long drama. There were many sad moments, and very dark moments that can't watch a second time, but I'll watch it again for the character development, and the love story.
Overall, it was a great watch and I don't regret watching this. This is one of the best K-dramas of 2012. You should watch it if you haven't yet.

The story can be said is average, the characters learn about truths and humanity through court cases and thus grow as human beings. But what really interested me was the supernatural element that was perfectly incorporated into the storyline. I loved the talent that Soo Ha had it fitted well with the story and it worked. It didn't seem out of place and it was consistent. His mind reading wasn't the main focus and thats what I love about it even more. It also made the voiceover justifiable and enjoyable as we get to understand his mind as well as the depth of other people's minds. The story had elements of everything without being overwhelming and confusing. Supernatural power, court cases, personal scars and fears along with a light but solid romantic development this drama balanced it all out well. Really well.
I loved the development of the romance as it was just so sweet and honest - none of the typical kdrama setout. The legal aspect of it also impressed me a lot! Sometimes the main story can overshadow court cases but this didn't happen - whilst there wasn't a great deal of time focused on the court cases and the characters it did however focus on the process behind each case as well as incorporating some humanity into the justice system.
I don't want to reveal too much of the story but it definitely isn't stereotypical. The characters surprised me in many ways and I absolutely loved watching their interactions and their subtly and believable grow and development. It showed me that people aren't robots, personalities can change, hearts can change. Enemies can become friends, one-sided love can be heard and not every drama needs an evil backstabbing second female lead.
The acting was incredibly from all of the cast. There is not one that I can criticise. The perfect leads and supporting cast. When I first heard Lee Jong Suk, Lee Bo Young and Yoon Sang Hyun I thought it would be awkward and lack chemistry. Boy was I wrong! There was not one moment that I doubted the love the characters had for each other - it all made sense, it was realistic, hence without such a talented casts this would've have worked. Lee Bo Young who impressed me as the rude, strong and somewhat heartless Public Defender. Her character is comedy gold - her antics are just the funniest and I enjoyed watching her become a better person. I never noticed her before but now she's definitely on my radar. Her acting is definitely one of the best I've seen.
Lee Jong Suk, well his name says it all. He ain't the hottest actor in South Korea for no reason and damn right he deserves that, he made that character come to life. I can't see anyone else who could've done a better job or him doing a better job it really was done well. He made me smile so much and cry so much too that bad man! I love Yoon Sang Hyun as the loud, naive and trusting lawyer his character brought light into the drama and he made me smile (not as much as Lee Jong Suk though) with his awesome persuasion skills and definitely brought much laughter to the audience I'm sure.
The supporting casts are just as amazing as the leads. The most impressive was Lee Da Hee. This might have been how awesome her character was (surprisingly so!) but I thought she played her role as the Prosecutor so well. She's on my radar too!
The music was great the perfect companion to the emotions that this series showed. Now that this drama is finished it's the perfect medication to stop me from missing this so much. reliving the memories.
Yes I will be rewatching this because it's not sooo heavy that it's burdensome but not so light that it makes no connection with the audience (i.e. me) so I plan to rewatch it. Not soon but I will.
Overall, this is a well executed and written drama that continuously impressed me with the plot and character development. All the characters were unexpected and I loved every moment. I try to be as objective as I can, although it doesn't sound it this review is me being objective. The story and side stories were great. There is not much I can criticise about this drama. For me it had the perfect balance of everything. It made me smile, envious, cry, learn and grow essentially to be more understanding of people. All in all I loved and enjoyed this series so much. A must watch!

WARNING: SPAZZING OVER THIS DRAMA WITHOUT SPOILERS!! SORRY IF IT'S LONG GUYS/GALS/WHOEVER IS READING THIS REVIEW!! SO. . . LET'S GET STARTED THEN. . . SHALL WE!?
I agree with people when they say, "THIS IS THE BEST DRAMA IN 2013!!" because it's true!
Story: 10/10 because this story is original. The plot was amazingly written. The characters were well thought out by the writer.
Acting: 10/10 because the leads had out-of-this world chemistry! Not lying about that. People who love this drama to pieces will understand that!! The characters were well written like I said earlier. The actors and actresses were chosen well! If the actors/actresses were different, then I probably wouldn't like this drama as much as I did, that's how much I love this drama.
Sorry for the ramble next category GOMEN/MIANHE!!!
Music: 10/10 because the BGMs were memorable, it sets the mood of the story very well, it was always on point to where it was going to be. It gave the moment from to be happy & cute to very dark, sad &/or serious in not time at all. Love it to pieces & the opening song was great too.
Rewatch value: 10/10 because it was cute and memorable, & some of the scenes were memorable and great to watch.
Overall: If I gave a rating I would give it 20/10 for this drama even more because how much fun it was to watch this and can't wait for the next episode to come out. I'm probably going to have a withdrawl from this. It was an addicting drama & it's now over.
Sorry for a very long drama review. Now you get it. If you haven't seen this, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! You should've watched the drama first. Oh well, that's life & that what people do sometimes. *SIGHS* SPAZZING OVER & OUT.

When you think you've figured out how it works, the cards are mixed again, the allies stab you from behind and in the true sense of the word!
The drama has an intricate plot with equally complex characters, each one of them divided between good and evil..
It's full of action, corruption, betrayal and suspense but this is not all.. even in an environment where you can't trust anyone, there's someone who is still willing to risk or even sacrifice his life for another person..
The romance isn't the focal point, but it was of great importance to complete the plot.. Shi Hyun and Soo Min had an incredible chemistry.. they had an impossible but really passionate and breathtaking relationship!!
About the cast.. Jung Kyung Ho has shone with an intense and utterly believable acting.. he has made a complete change from the past projects.. after light characters which were closer to his personality, I would have not expected this dense and intense acting with excellent action scenes!! Thanks to him, Jung Shi Hyun's character has been totally captivating!
I loved the OST, especially "Hurt" by Kim Yong Jin
Ps: Gun wounds that heal over night? it's possible if you use Pororo's plasters!! XD
Pps: sorry for my English
