ENA has released the script reading stills and footage for its upcoming crime-thriller Your Honor. The show stars Sohn Hyun-joo (Captivating the King) and Kim Myung-min (Law School) as two fathers willing to do anything for their sons, and one unfortunate accident intertwines their fates together.

Sohn plays honorable judge Song Pan-ho who has devoted his life to the law. However, when his son becomes a murderer, he throws away his principles in order to shield him. In the end, before he is a judge, Pan-ho chooses to be a father.

In opposition to Pan-ho is mobster Kim Kang-heon (Kim Myung-min). He believes he is above the law, so when his son dies, he goes to whatever lengths to catch the killer. On the surface, he appears cold and cutthroat, but Kang-heon loves his son dearly. When his wife Jung Ae-yeon (Pyramid Game) asks if he isn’t mad over their son’s death, he tells her that he is too hurt and sad to even feel angry.

Playing Pan-ho’s only son Song Ho-young is Kim Do-hoon (7 Escape – Resurrection). His mistake leads his father down a dark path, and though Ho-young wishes to turn himself in, Pan-ho stops him.

The other son in this tragedy is Kim Sang-hyuk played by Heo Nam-joon (The Impossible Heir). Kang-heon’s eldest son, Sang-hyuk is just as monstrous as his father, and the two had a tumultuous relationship before his untimely end.

Finally, playing prosecutor Kang So-young is Jung Eun-chae (Anna). A principled woman who refuses to bend to the powerful, once So-young sets her eyes on a target, she does not let go.

Originally an Israeli TV series with an American remake, this Korean adaptation has PD Pyo Min-soo (Moon in the Day) taking the creator role, PD Yoo Jong-sun (Paper Moon) directing, and Kim Jae-hwan (Boyhood) writing the script. ENA’s Your Honor is slated for ten episodes and premieres August 12 in the Monday-Tuesday slot.

The acting talents of the two leads are a good enough reason to add this to my list.

I absolutely loved "The Chaser" and "Law School" too, lets hope this is just as good

I've often thought when watching the usual senior actors playing bad guys, like wicked CEOs and loan sharks and crooked politicians, why doesn't Kim Myung-min get some of these roles now that's he's middle-aged? Looking forward to seeing him play the crime boss here.

This has the potential to be a good story and the main actors are two I really like so I'm signing up to start it. Kim Myung-min is such a superb method actor and Sohn Hyun-joo always makes me root for his characters.
