In the Law and the City finale, each lawyer embarks on a new path—from solo practice to public defense, prosecution to academia—while their bond remains unbroken. Here's a crisp breakdown and what it may mean for Season 2
Do Lee Jong Suk and Moon Ga Young
With its finale, Law and the City brings a satisfying yet open-ended conclusion to the journeys of the "Associate Lawyers Avengers." Here's how things wrapped up:
- Ahn Joo-hyung (Lee Jong-suk) leaves his law firm and opens his own practice to take on meaningful cases independently.
- Kang Hee-ji (Moon Ga-young) pivots to become a public defender, aligning her work with her values of accessible justice.
- Jo Chang-won resigns and moves into prosecution, seeking a path that resonates with his convictions.
- Ha Sang-ki pursues a PhD and finds new love, while Bae Moon-jung takes maternity leave, returning more energized than ever.
The group continues their nostalgic lunchtime gatherings—small reminders of their shared bonds. The series leaves the evolving dynamic between Joo-hyung and Hee-ji open-ended, offering hopeful emotional beats without committing to a romantic outcome.
Currently, there’s no confirmation on a Season 2, especially with character arcs feeling fully realized. But the show's thoughtful closure leaves room for future possibilities.
