Underwhelming: worst C-Drama I've watched as of yet!

This is one of the worst C-Drama I've watched. Anyone giving a 10 is biased...

1- The story is simply bad and boring.
I usually love investigation/mystery stories, but in this one, people get murdered one after another nonstop, all for the stupidest reasons, while the female detective is allowed to do whatever she wants with zero consequences. The entire plot feels like a messy quilt stitched together from random, unrelated patches of story — nothing connects properly. Also, there’s supposed to be a slow-burn romance, but the character arcs are almost non-existent.

2-Both lead actors’ performances are underwhelming. I’m especially disappointed in Wang Xingyue, but with such a crappy script, even a great actor couldn’t work miracles.
3- The background music is ok, but it's not well calibrated: it's so loud it buries the actor's voices.
4- Most make up are not well done: actors look like they have a white powdered face...
5- Some scenes are lit in a bad way: colors are off, or it's overlit (overexposure)
6- Costumes are average

Overall, this was a huge letdown. Skip it unless you’re dying for background noise while folding laundry.
