A Really Good Crime Drama!

A genius criminal profiler receives an email that prompts his return to Korea. A killer is leaving him clues related to an escaped criminal who killed his dad & kidnapped his brother. The whole unfolding of their story, the reconnecting of the brothers, all the twists & discoveries that follow… wow. It’s a heartbreaking & bittersweet reunion because of that darn villain who just needs a good punch.

The FL is an elite detective who encounters the ML at the crime scene. She recognizes him from their childhood, but he doesn’t remember her. While I liked her overall, she did make some choices that had me going, “uhhh…I thought you were supposed to be super smart?!” For the most part, though, I enjoyed her brand of crazy, haha.

When they team up, can they untangle the mystery surrounding their fathers deaths? Will they untangle the identities of those around them in time? With all the mystery & chaos around them, will the Leads’ love have a chance to bloom…?

If you like mystery with a hint of romance, I recommend this. The cast did a great job sucking me in. I wanted to - 1) hug the brothers for all the pain they endured, 2) annihilate the villain for the trauma he caused with his warped thinking, & 3) high-five the team for not giving up.

And of course, I was so happy to watch the Leads’ connection grow & see those glimpses into what they could be… 😍

IMHO, this has a good pacing over everything coming to light & being resolved. Some aspects are very known, while other parts take a bit longer to figure out. I think all the cast did really good in their roles - I loved & hated who I was meant to, but I also felt empathy for some of the baddies which doesn’t always happen. So kudos to the writers, directors, & cast for making that happen 👍🏻
