The courtroom battle, fiery confrontations and personal struggles in Beyond the Bar are heading towards their final episodes. The legal K-drama has been well-received by viewers, thanks to the unique cases the show features and its talented cast.

The story began with Kang Hyo-min, a disliked rookie lawyer, joining the prestigious law firm, Yullim. She ends up becoming a team member of a very senior lawyer who disliked her from day one, but little did Seok-hoon know that Hyo-min would soon win his trust.

What happened in Beyond the Bar Episode 10: A quick recap

In the latest episode, Kang Hyo-min handled her first criminal case. The interesting part was that the accused, who killed a woman, was Hyo-min's high school mate and a victim of severe bullying.

The episode synopsis reads:

"After a murder suspect blames her for the crime, Hyo-min hunts for their connection. Na-yeon and Seok-hoon pursue the truth behind Yullim's CEO's ploy."

The victim who was killed was the one who used to bully the accused in school and had even burned her face with a cigarette. So, she asked Hyo-min to help her in the case and prevent a life sentence.

Hyo-min worked hard and realized that she was also among the bystanders who watched Kim Yeong-mi get bullied. She was a brilliant student and if anyone had raised a voice for her at the right time, she wouldn't have taken the step of killing her bully.

Hyo-min was well-prepared and the judge agreed with her facts and statements. By the end, the accused was given two years of life in prison, and Hyo-min was praised by Seok-hoon for handling the case so well.


What to expect from Beyond the Bar Episode 11?

The next episode of Beyond the Bar will be intense as a man from the past will return. At the same time, Seok-hoon is still trying to heal from the past. Later, Hyo-min asks him if he has time, and the two meet Ms. Choi's twin sisters.

The episode will feature Hyo-min and Seok-hoon spending a great time with the kids. At the same time, Seok-hoon is handling a big case after Na-heon asked him to help.
