you are right , but if you asked me which episodes you'd want to watch to save time, well , i 'd say : ep 13-16, yeah. the rest are irrelevant, wearing off our attention , and are repetitive and and didn't contribute to strengthening the main plot. and guess what ? is it logical for a lady , when confronted with a suspicious guy ( a killer ) to choose a quiet alley to walk home? she could have called her mom, walked with someone or just wait till the killer is out of sight - my god. the logics are a bit staggering there. The rating of the drama has been consistently in the low since the beginning though. so , after watching the drama for 16 episodes, i think yeah , the rating won't lie.

True , same here.

because i think the drama wasted so much on a few filler episodes about, nearly all the characters in the neighborhood which do not enhance the main plot. I know the intention is to keep us guessing and distracting us from main culprit/ killer which , do not have any impact on all the plotlines from ep 1- 13. I think that is the issues related to the, structuring, organizing, sequencing of the plot.

not only that - we don't know the reason behind the bloody shirt that wontak/hae jin's dad had washed, why that was the case.

I agree with you. The pilot episodes were engaging at first, but then after ep 10 , i begin to lose my focus and it's getting a bit annoying because (1) too many filler episodes which didn't contribute to the main plot , (2) too many characters with their backstory - which also didn't help the main plot and organization , (3) poor plot sequencing, - because of too many sub plots which are irrelevant , and have nil contribution to the main plot , (4) slow pacing and draggy. The positive things about this drama - are the lead and supporting actresses and actors, they managed to get and play their character well. No issues about the casts because they , as we know are very good. I then checked the rating too, after ep 10 , so it came down on me that the rating of the drama has been consistently low from the get go, which tells something about the writing of the drama etc.
