Reviews
Why is the rating of this drama so low? I have no idea.
This is actually a decent story with decent characters and interesting plot. Acting is good and overall it is a good show to watch.It is a bit slow but I didn't feel like dropping watching at any point. I may see though, why some viewers say that the story doesn't make sense because it's a "bunch of scenes put together not making any sense" however, have you ever make a puzzle with no picture of reference as to how it looks like? But as you slowly put it together you get the picture?
Well, this drama is exactly that. You won't see the clear picture of the crime until you have all the clues and even then you have to put them together in the right order to understand what is going on.
One thing I liked that I feel like I need to point out is that finally the main lead detective is not a super genius agent who understands everything at once and is able to point fingers from the get go. In the drama, police slowly collect evidence and data and witnesses and work their way through. It is refreshing to see something like that and not the typical know-it-all criminal investigator.
In summary, I would say this drama is the classic criminal case where the police must enter a chase to catch the mouse and in doing so, the plot offers a deeper understanding of what leads to a crime to happen. Worth the watch.
