It could have been shorter
Overall, the drama is all right. It could have been shorter though. I feel like the sections of the female detective doubting/hating the main male lead is kinda long and repetitive.Romance is not that attractive. I would not ship these two leads. There aren't much romance scene in this drama. (not gonna lie, I skipped the romantic scene between them at the end of the drama lol)
The acting is not bad. Actors are good, but the characters itself are sometimes silly.
I do like Kang Mi Na acting in this drama. She's funny to watch. :)
For Kwon Soo Hyun, this is the first time I saw him acting. He is not bad. I like his Cha Do Won character; it's mysterious but not enough. His sense of justice kinda remind me of character K in Inspector Koo. Both kill people that are deserved to be punished. However, the difference is Cha Do Won also kill the innocent (prosecutor Han). One thing I would change Cha Do Won acting is show more creepy expression to create more mysterious vibe (smiling). His smiling is more of like forcing himself to smile (not natural). It would have been better if he shows more expressions. His expression in this drama is kinda stiff.
One thing I like about this drama is when Nam Han Joon did the criminal profiling. I love criminal topics such as forensic science; so it's interesting to learn how criminal profiling works.
Overall, my rewatch value is 4/10. Story is 5/10. Acting is 7/10. Romance is 3/10. Music is 5/10

The movie was good but not great.
The movie was good but not great. **SPOILER ALERT**1. The actions scenes I love it & they look realistic. I love the coldness of the female lead but also her warm side of being a mother at the same time. Both Boksoon and her daughter demonstrate a common thing is they both afraid will the other side accept the secret. That's like the main wall between them.
2. The actors are great but the plot isn't. The ending is an open ending and abruptly.
3. The ending could have been better if the fight between Boksoon & Cha guy is longer. It's like before the fight, the movie shows the tension between the two so I thought the fight would be mind blowing but it's not. I really don't know whether Cha guy is really love Boksoon or not. It seems like he didn't fight at his best, maybe because he loves her but at the same time, why did he let Boksoon's daughter see the fight between them. It's like love and hatred at the same time. Their relationship is confusing that make me wanna find out more.
Therefore, in terms of actions 8.5/10 ; plot 7/10; actors 9/10. Overall is 8/10.

Sensitive Topic but a Great Sexual Crimes Awareness Educational Drama
This is a great educational drama about sexual crimes. It's a sensitive topic but the actors/actresses are well demonstrated through their actings, with emotions and expressions. All the cases covered in this drama are interesting because I got to learn a lot on how to recognize, prevent, and report sexual crimes. The most interesting thing is most of the characters I saw in this drama are actually from the Emerald Hill: The Little Nyonya Story (2025).The ending of the drama is pretty intense because I would have never imagined a drama would show the death of a child experience sexual assault. As I mentioned above, it's a sensitive topic, but it's a great educational drama for people to learn that sexual crimes can happen to anyone. Anyone can be suspicious of the sexual crimes predators. It's also important for parents to recognize the signs that their child being molested or manipulated. Being patience and caring are the most important.
I would highly recommend for people to watch this drama. I would also rewatch this drama in the future.

The plot is great but constant timeline jumping is confusing
The overall plot is great BUT the drama keeps jumping back and forth the timeline (e.g 2013, 2023, and 2013 again) make it hard for me to keep track. I was waiting for the climax but it took forever to reach it. I was at one point that really wanted to drop the drama, but decided to watch the rest. Until nearly episode 25+ that made me excited to watch.I love the actor (especially Huang Jintiao, played by Jeremy Chan). It's difficult to act as a stuttering person so naturally. Also, his emotions and expressions are on point (anger, sadness, etc).
I would love to watch this drama again but the timeline jumping confusing me so probably not watching it again.
