‘Your Honor’ Korean Adaptation, Starring ‘The Good Detective’s’ Son Hyun-Joo, Reveals First-Look Clip (EXCLUSIVE)

As a seasoned film enthusiast with a penchant for international cinema, I must say that the unveiling of the Korean adaptation of “Your Honor” has piqued my interest significantly. With its impressive pedigree, boasting talented creators and an esteemed cast, this legal thriller promises to be a captivating ride.


Yes Studios recently shared the initial overseas sneak peek of their Korean remake of the globally successful scripted series “Your Honor.” This version premieres soon.

Here are two ways to rephrase the given sentence for a more natural and easy-to-read style:

“So far, ‘Your Honor’ has been tailored for broadcast in 10 different countries such as the United States, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Turkey, India, Croatia, and Russia. Yes Studios is currently discussing additional format deals for this series, particularly in Asia.”

As a longtime fan of Korean dramas and movies, I must say that I am incredibly excited about the upcoming Korean adaptation of “Han River Police,” produced by Monster Company for Disney+. Given my background in watching countless hours of Korean entertainment, I have come to appreciate the unique storytelling styles and exceptional talent within the industry.

In the Korean version of “Your Honor,” Son Hyun-Joo, known for his roles in “Captivating the King” and “The Good Detective,” takes on the leading role as a judge opposite Kim Myung-Min from “Law School.” Also starring are Kim Do-Hoon (“The Escape of the Seven”), Heo Nam-Jun (“The Impossible Heir”), and Jung Eun-Chae (“Pachinko”).

In 2017, I became captivated by a riveting legal drama titled “Your Honor,” which originally aired on Yes TV under the name “Kvodo.” This gripping series follows the life of a distinguished senior judge who finds himself in a morally complex situation when his son is involved in a hit-and-run incident. As he struggles to protect his son, he must confront difficult choices and their subsequent consequences.

Sharon Levi, head of Yes Studios, stated that “Monster Company has effectively created an upscale, intense, and exhilarating show.” Additionally, she mentioned that this partnership signifies another milestone for Yes Studios as they expand their presence into the APAC region, with plans for more significant advancements in the future.

“The strong, consistent desire of parents to shield their children is a universal theme of great power, and when combined with a top-quality storyline, it’s no wonder that ‘Your Honor’ remains appealing to global producers and broadcasters searching for a sophisticated, tried-and-true drama to adapt locally,” Levi explained. (In this version, I’ve attempted to make the sentence structure simpler and more conversational while preserving the original meaning.)
