Started Off Strong, Kinda Lost Its Way

This drama had me in the first half, not gonna lie. Mystery? Check. Thriller? Check. No forced romance? Double check. Honestly, it felt refreshing to watch a show that didn't try to toss in a love triangle for no reason.

Now, the acting? Sometimes it was “wow,” sometimes it was “huh?” Let’s just say it was on a little rollercoaster. The cast was fine—underrated, sure—but no one really punched me in the gut emotionally (except maybe when the CGI tried its best and still looked like a 2008 screensaver… but I respect the effort).

The real crime though? The actual crime we were supposed to solve got left behind! We started off with the mysterious Fire Phoenix case, only to somehow wrap up the Killing Brides plot like it was the main event? Sir, ma’am, who did this to the storyline?

Still, I’m not giving up hope. If there’s a Season 2, I’m pulling up with popcorn and prayer, because that plot deserves a proper ending. Not perfect, but definitely worth checking out if you’re into twisty mysteries—with a little chaos on the side.
