A 'MUST WATCH' for all detective kdrama fans
Wonder why this drama is so underrated when it's a definite 'must watch' for all detective/mystery kdrama fans. The story revolves around a female prosecutor and a forensics team and it shows how they solve murders mostly by carrying out post mortems.Pluses
1.Well this drama shows many short cases (some of them are connected to each other) so you don't have to wait till the last episode to find who the criminal is
2. No melodrama. Just pure science and logic to the rescue!!!(unlike many mystery kdramas we know)
3. You really will get to learn many new stuff
4. The post mortems are soo realistic which makes the drama more interesting to watch
Minuses
1. Well the female prosecutor is supposed to be the top of her class but she didn't live up to her name in the first few episodes.
2. Season 2 ends with a cliffhanger but I was devastated when I got to know that they won't make a season 3
Oh and FYI no romance whatsoever between the main leads.
Now go and watch it without further ado!!!!!

My opinion
This movie is Korean drama the genre it’s about suspense, mystery, law, medical and investigation and have 32 episodes. The stories about forensic doctor. He was a chest surgeon. But must become a forensic doctor because he had an accident, his hand could not work the same. Prosecutors who work together often have problems with each other because of their different work behavior, but with the talent and their determination they have, they can resolve even the toughest cases. The actor has a different autopsy profile than the general autopsy. That is, he often smells the corpses in the victim's body organs that are abnormal and suspicious. The victim's corpses in cases are often complicated by the murderer's plot. But the actor is able to perform an autopsy and solve the mystery of how to kill that conceal the murderer's corpse, the actor is a person who believes in his own opinion and the evidence that he has come across causing him to not listen to other people's opinions therefore making it difficult for people to like him this movie has it all 3 seasons, which in the first season there wasn't much It was an autopsy and solved general cases, but it was complicated and interesting to follow in this season the ending will have a clue at the end of the story to continue the story inseason2, in season2 added character, that is the surgeon the special of this season is this surgeon, he is a culprit with two personalities. Which is he is usually a doctor who works in a general hospital but if when he hears the story that affects the mind the evil personality he had in his body could be seen it’s seem like a different person and with the fact that he is a doctor each of these murders was perfectly concealable, no one doubted him but forensic doctor was able to perform an autopsy, found something unusual and solved the case even if it was difficult. In season3 I think it should be on air within this year. I think this is a fun movie with a story to follow when I saw this movie, I gain knowledge of science and the relationships of the characters are connected causing to wait for hope that the results will come out. The murderer who is a surgeon and forensic doctor have very similar abilities making me want to keep track of how the killer will kill people and forensic doctor will resolve the case in any way because of the doctor's killing, it used the doctor's knowledge to kill people, let me know that the doctor is the person who can save our life, but can kill us as well. In the process of the story, at some point it turns and confuses us s someone who is unlikely to be the culprit but is become to the culprit and maybe someone close to the protagonist in the story I think people who do not have time should not watch this movie Because the movie has many seasons and there are many episodes maybe you can't stop watching because of the end of each episode It's often an open-ended ending, so we want to keep watching and hide some clues during the story, And stimulate our minds to keep watching.Was this review helpful to you?
great plot but
the story was great but the acting is really not it. i guess it’s not only about the actors’ skill, but also the script writing like the conversations and so on, the body gesture, the small detail to emphasize every situation and emotion. idk i feel like im watching a theater instead of a netflix korean drama. but again, the story and plot is pretty good, except the Kang prosecutor character god he's so fckn annoying . idk if it's just his character or also about the bad acting and cringe dialog but istg i can't stand him……………………………

TRUE PARTNERS FOR JUSTICE !! (Not just the main leads but the entire team)
Dr. BB (ML) : "Don't write ur own Fiction!"(My fav line in the drama :) )
But the Writers of this drama wrote an AWESOME FICTION!! ✨
One of the BEST Forensic Medical Crime Dramas!!
:)
Initially (1 or 2 episodes in the beginning), the plot n the cases look mediocre, very plain n routine - pacing is right, not slow but the plot or cases look too simple, also at times, FL n 2nd ML are a bit irritating, Some may find it difficult to continue watching.
But from around ep 3, as the story n the episodes progress, the seriousness of the cases, the way they are dealt or the personal stories of the characters, everything shoots up and is RIGHT TO THE POINT.
Later, there is No Moment of Boredom or NO Scene for the sake of Content Filler, which drag the Pacing down or disturb the Smooth Flow of the story.
It's VERY INTERESTING n GRIPPING till the end.
Later on, Direction, Editing and the Pacing, Everything is done RIGHT!
The mild Comedy n the Team Work is fun to watch.
Forensic Visuals of the Autopsy are AMAZING!
Every Case is Interesting with Unexpected Twists and Serious enough with a Depth.
THE INTERTWINING OF THE CASES WITH THE PERSONAL EMOTIONAL TRACKS OF EACH CHARACTER IS WELL WRITTEN.
ML - Dr.BB's character n the Cases are written in a Very Intelligent, Logical n Gripping manner.
**** CHARACTERS:
All characters are well written n Lovable!
All the actors did act their roles well.
FL's assistants (Dong sik n Mi Ho) n police detective Soo Ho are a Very Funny team .
Their Disguises to track criminals are funny :)
Soo Ho's RINGTONE of Dr.BB' s "Thank You" is funny ;)
(Actor Yi Kyung is handsome.
His role is sweet n funny, persuading lovely gal Stella )
The initial episodes are Funny:
All are pampering FL, except ML 😂
** FL:
Intro of FL is sweet.
But she is annoying in ep 1, saying it's just her hunch n arguing stubbornly without any evidence.
That court room scene in ep 1, It looked as though she wants to frame the guy as the murderer, just bcz of her gut feeling :o
But by ep 2, Good that she changed n focused more on collecting evidences for her hunch! ;)
She learnt that emotional empathy for the victim is good but it needs evidence .
N so from then, I LIKED HER DEDICATION TO BRING JUSTICE :)
(Ep 1) She loves TV crime dramas but doesn't she know to wear gloves in a crime scene etc, atleast from those? 😂
(Leave about a prosecutor knowing that basic point)
Initially she is so sensitive. Makes a scene n needs a saviour everytime!
Later She really improved herself n I love that character arc of her.
** ML (Dr.BB) :
His character is the MOST INTERESTING one.
Though looks Rude n not so social, his DEDICATION to his job, his EXTREME EFFORTS, his BIZARRE ways of deducting the truth from bodies, his stubborness/ insistence to study Every Minute Detail from the subject on the table, how small it might be, his hard work fighting against everyone to get every point in the autopsy report Perfect n to Bring Out The Truth n thereby Justice, everything is VERY GOOD about him.
"Past Trauma turned a warm, lively guy into a Zombie like depressed personality" trope is understandable n reasonable .
(At times, his role reminded me of forensic examiner Nakado Kei from JDrama medical series "UNNATURAL" :) )
The way ML is able to see through his case subjects in an autopsy with his Extensive Knowledge n pinpoint every detail, which are usually missed by other examiners/prosecutors, is very Smart n written in a very intelligent n gripping manner!
Those minor details blow up, set an unexpected turn in the investigation n speed up the case a lot, thereby helping to catch the True Culprit.
THIS IS THE MOST INTERESTING PART OF EVERY CASE THAT I REALLY LOVED.
Dr.BB is COOL! 😎
I felt a Huge Relief whenever I get to see him working on a case, especially in difficult cases, where the other examiners couldn't find any clue making the investigation get stuck (n be at peace, that he will solve the case for sure n at any cost, logically with evidences :) )
I like the philosophical conversations of ML n FL, though very few.
Only FL can see through his "Zombie mask"
ML n FL are so DIFFERENT in their ways (One focuses on EVIDENCE - only from the Dead as Living might Lie n Another on EMOTIONS)
n yet so SAME (One seeks to bring out the TRUTH n Another wants to bring JUSTICE).
TRUE PARTNERS FOR JUSTICE !!
** Second ML:
(Actor Eun Seok is handsome ;) )
Initially Sweet, Cute, Smart -> Annoying
It happened very quickly, haha
OmG, He really made a "Scene"!
At one point, am so annoyed seeing him, abusing his power for personal grudges, I just wanted to Fire him from his prosecutor role myself, haha
Good, he took responsibility for his annoying actions.
Finally, forgiven by me, the viewer! ;)
**** CASES:
Than the mild romance (though this turned out to be more of Friendship or care towards the end, be it between FL n ML or 2nd ML), I loved the Cases, including the personal cases of the characters (it's interesting how detective Soo Ho n Dr.BB are suspected and cleared)
(Around TWO EPISODES per ONE CASE, in the 16 episode format n so around 9 cases, in total )
Each Case may look mediocre or plain initially but as the case progresses, it is written so well with a lot of unexpected Twists and Depth.
All the CASES are DIVERSE.
They covered many types of criminal cases in this season.
Murder Cases / crime related to:
Domestic violence,
Faking one's death n framing another,
Infidelity n Inheritance legal issues,
Suspicion in a relationship,
Probable virus attack n lockdown,
Past crime involving Revenge Seeking n Blackmail,
School bullying n the mental stress due to education,
Family Insurance crime,
Psychopathic Serial killing
n Rich abusing the poor etc
The joint investigation, bringing two prosecutor teams, two forensic medical examiner teams, retired police detective team n present police detective team, everyone together for the serial killer case is fun to watch.
OST opening instrumental music suits well to the mood of the drama n BGM too .
(The same Composer as that of KDrama "Through the Darkness")
Initially a bit rough, as said above n so my rating is 9.5 / 10
Except that, I don't find any other flaw, definitely a 10 / 10 drama! ✨
(Just finished S1.
That Cliff hanger ending!? 🤯
That too, left in the middle of a case?, Ehhh!? :O
OmG, I can imagine the Pain, who waited for an year for S2 back then! ;) )

Cant get past episode 1
It is plain to see that the creators of this series did not even do research to add some credibility to their story. It is truly pathetic. In fact it was painful to watch. Is this how trials are conducted in Seoul...I dont think so. The female lead is so unconvincing and irritating. It is only the police official that brought a smile to my face briefly but it disappeared when his role started consisting of lifting up the main character's poor performance that dragged his down as well. This episode is a nightmare that I hope I will forget soonWas this review helpful to you?
Melhor drama de investigação
É muito bom, as investigações são incríveis.As reviravoltas nas investigações são de tirar o fôlego. Prendeu minha atenção do começo ao fim.
Os personagens são demais, só o Dr. Baek Beom, o médico legista que eu odiava no começo mas depois até que eu gostei dele (Ele era bem implicante e frio).
O elenco como um todo fez um ótimo trabalho.
A ost eu achei topíssima.
O final ficou em aberto, porém existe já a segunda temporada para dar continuidade a essa história incrível.

Un médecin légiste au mauvais carctère est au centre des enquêtes
J’ai beaucoup aimé, particulièrement l’orientation des enquêtes sur le côté médecine légale et scientifique !Le personnage central, Baek Beom, est un véritable ours, grognon, (d’ailleurs surnommé docteur grognon) souvent franchement désagréable (la façon dont il vire les gens de sa salle d’autopsie sans considération de rang ou d’âge !j’adore ! ) mais il est d’une méticulosité et un acharnement incomparable ! Tout le monde se ronge les sangs en attendant le compte-rendu d’autopsie sans quoi on ne peut boucler l’affaire, mais il n’en a cure, et va chercher le minuscule détail qui va changer la mort naturelle en homicide !
Il est assisté par une femme, le docteur Han Seo Hyeon, qui élève seule sa fille et Jang Sung Joo, son assistant au soutien indéfectible. La jeune procureure Eun Seol qui débute va perdre souvent patience, puis elle fera comme tout le monde, elle attendra !
Les affaires se succèdent presque à la cadence d’une par épisode, mais souvent sur 1 épisode 1/2… L’intérêt du drama est dans la façon dont Baek Beom se sort toujours des situations épineuses par son calme indifférent à toute intrusion. Un mot sur la scientifique venue de Los Angeles, fantaisiste et donnant la pointe d’humour nécessaire !
Drama très prenant, que je n’ai pas lâché jusqu’au mot fin, pour me précipiter sur la seconde saison !
