Divorce Lawyer in Love (Korean: 이혼변호사는 연애중; RR: Ihonbyeonhosaneun yeonaejung; lit. Divorce Lawyer is Dating) is a 2015 South Korean television series starring Cho Yeo-jeong and Yeon Woo-jin.[1][unreliable source?][2][3][4] It aired on SBS from April 18 to June 14, 2015, on Saturdays and Sundays at 22:00 for 18 episodes.
Go Cheok-hee and So Jung-woo once worked together at a law firm; she was a well known divorce lawyer, and he was her office manager. She treated him like her inferior, while he constantly irked her by pointing out her mistakes and calling her "Chucky" behind her back. Cheok-hee is so ambitious and determined to win every case for her clients that her unethical misdeeds catch up to her, causing her license to be suspended.
Meanwhile, Jung-woo studies and gets his law degree, thanks to his friend who happens to have a crush on him. Years later, Cheok-hee and Jung-woo end up working together again, but for a different law firm. And this time the tables have turned — he's the divorce lawyer, and she's the office manager. Jung-woo relishes getting his petty revenge, until ultimately realizing that she was the one who rescued him in a tragic accident in the subway when he was a law student on his way to the legal bar examinations.[5]
