The most Boring first four episodes ever

I watched the first four episodes after each one aired ,, I had very high hopes and I was really disappointed
this drama only has Ji sung ,, the only good thing for it ,,, nothing good in it but him
the story is so slow and boring ,, what is the use of The Twin just to separate them from first episode ,,,? to investigate separately without any contact to each other or even a story to combine them as brothers
at least to build for us viewers some emotional connection to them but no
it's like two very separate stories happening at the same time and both stories are really not original nor new
same old criminal case of wronged father that's it
I dropped it because
1- No brotherhood scenes
2- No thrilling elements at all
3-No Angsty scenes
4- many villains for both brothers
5- No good female lead to add anything interesting to the whole thing
5-so many irritating people got on my nerves
6- Dark scheme or Dark palate colors for the drama that is hard to watch sometimes
7-No actual killing or horrifying scenes or anticipation at all
overall it was very exhausting experience watching something that boring in this heat of a summer

ADAaaam....

Although the twin had different styles with different clothing to make them distinguishable enough but I found it a little tiring to keep making a conscious effort to differentiate between the two. Maybe throwing on some glasses would help or I'm just too lazy. The first episode felt too tame and didn't show enough gripping elements. That scene in the forest at the beginning of episode 2 really sat the overall tone of the drama moving forward. At that point, it was obvious it's going to be the type of show that would waste time on nonsense, fail to deliver the information and dance around aimlessly. I though I would give them the benefit of the doubt; they might deliver on that with clever plays but they never did. Not even the twins element was utilized enough. After about 4 episodes, the drama lost most, if not all, of its engaging elements. The mystery turned into a snoozefest. This was beyond what's considered a slow burner. It took 11 long episodes for something noteworthy to happen. The ending was underwhelming after all that wait and they had the audacity to set up some teasers for possible continuation.

May not be for everyone - everyone has different taste.

All i can say is - watch it for yourself and then decide if you like it or not. Everyone's preferences are different.

It's clearly not for someone who doesn't watch the serious in depth dramas with lots of twists and turns and I admit if you're new to this genre you might want to watch something else first to see if you like the genre in question or not.

But if you enjoy such dramas with seriousness and twists and turns, may make you absolutely hate a certain character then I can say that it will suck you in and you will be extremely curious about every single thing and want answers for every thing decisions or actions.

Quero mais

Já de conhecimento na dramaland que a atuação do Jisung nunca decepciona, e claramente ele deu um show de atuação novamente, interpretando duas pessoas diferentes, e era notável a diferença. Os mistérios e reviravoltas entorno do cobiçado Adamas, tornou a história mais envolvente. Cada episódio que passava eu ficava na agonia, pois achava que um dos meus personagens favoritos podia morrer, até que enfim chegou o momento desesperador, porém nos últimos minutos foi descoberto que não havia morrido, que ainda tem muita história pela frente. Espero que tenha 2 temporada pra nos entregar o que foi prometido.
PS: Sun é uma personagem muito interessante, essa foi uma das melhores vilãs que já vi!
