Hero sounds very interesting but the "musical" part is making me a little cautious.
not a fan of musical dramas

watch Burning Ice
that's the drama that started the whole Light On series ;) It's very good and also based off a novel written by the same author that wrote The Bad Kids

lots of dramas are in the same situation.
That's the reason why I generally read the comments and don't focus so much on the rating. Comments are a good indicator if a drama is good or not.

alright short drama. It would have profited a lot if they had developed specific storylines a little more or reduced them but either way. It is a fine watch, just a bit predictable.
7/10

Quite an interesting drama but I do believe that the first half was a little stretched. The story was very interesting and raw. All the misery was found in one life.
7,5/10

Oh wow. Utterly wow. This was utterly amazing!
The story begins like any crime drama. A mystery linked to the past. Then murder happen that resemble that old case and questions arise. But nothing is as it seems. literally nothing. this drama has so many moments where one thinks one knows how it will end but it is full of surprises. And the ending? Utterly shocking. I never thought I would see something so deep and psychological and philosophical. Utterly wow and amazing.
10/10+
This drama will be on my top 4 from now on. Utterly wow.

I thought their reason for their divorce was something dramatic but this? Wow.....I didn't see that coming.....thats too realistic.
I really really understand the male lead quite a lot. And I get her too.
I used to hope for a 2nd change romance drama but now I wish both will end up happy with their love interests. It would be a really nice to see that happen.

yeah, I kept checking for a missed tragedy tag too. If this were more serious I'd totally assume now that he had some sort of serious illness but I seriously doubt that. So what reason was so severe that he had to divorce her and then also try to make her happy by setting her up with his good friend? So many questions XD

noir genre and even as such announced? => Definitely going to watch!

Oh wow that was really good! Very well done story and what an amazing ending!
9/10

Somehow this begins when it ends.....
The story is not something unique, it is like a mix between IRobot from 2004 and Bicentennial from 1999. Even some scenes are quite similar. The story had some great moral question though.
I just wish they would have shortened the first 40 min and then build up the ending more. That was very sudden and left many questions unanswered.
Overall this is a little disappointing
thus 7/10

it was nominated as the first series for the Berlinale. So maybe the international release is postponed on iqiyi until it has aired at the festival, which is going to be in February.
So lets keep fingers crossed that it will win :)

how so?

ohhh I like it. It is quite pleasant to watch

ahh i see. to be fair I'd say this drama goes more into the thriller genre as well.

Yeh it is really good. Keeps you guessing on who is the most evil out of all.
but surprising to see Japanese horror? How so? Japan produces a lot of gruesome stories. They focus them mostly on movies though but seriously, Japan is top notch in this genre.

that's exactly what I thought too.
They should have picked "The Bad Kids" or "Burning Ice" instead.Both are written by the same author and both got absolutely amazing cdrama adaptions.

it isn't. it was accidentally miss-posted but its corrected now ;)

for Chinese/Taiwanese dramas?
try:
- A Murderous Affair in Horizon Tower
- Burning Ice
- Victim's Game

Bittersweet story but seriously ......that ending was very open no? I wish we would have gotten at least a somewhat answer as to what will happen with them but oh wello
Acting wise damn it was amazing and the little girl actress? Respect for pulling it so well off!
8/10
