Seo In Guk shines. Leads bicker.Good premise. unbalanced humor with suspense/horror

18 Episodes is an interesting length for a series. The male lead ,Seo In Guk,shines ( in a role that is not that different from ones he has played before). I really had a hard time looking at the female lead Oh Yeon Seo, as she looked like she had lip injections that had not gone well ( it was distracting from her performance) (if you look at older pictures of her she looks very nice & normal !). The romance was a hard sell for me as I don't find an abundance of bickering & physical abuse romantic. Plus, they didn't give a good reason for why the male lead liked the female lead. Overly goofy acting & helped alleviate some of the tension from the suspense & horror of the often too graphic murders , but the balance of extreme humor & extreme grisly stuff did not work for me. All in all, though, Seo In Guk & head cop Jung Man Shik (who have been in dramas together before) really made this great. I was surprised at the very clever reveal of who the head bad guy turned out to be. this is very rewatchable because the premise is very good & well executed and the male lead really sells it.
