I'm kind of a sucker for no romance - unless its a fundamental part of the plot (or a romance drama). Too often, I think, romance is shoehorned into kdramas to keep the squeakers happy. It's not always necessary and sometimes it drags the quality/story down.

I noticed quite a lengthy Kokpo sequence, too. With dialogue about how it perks you up *cringe*

There was someone on here the other day trying to organise fake upvoting.

What is the weird roaring air/cheap air con noise that dominates so many scenes? And the blue loo cleaner that people drink out of shot glasses, wine glasses, etc.

This is kind of my dream show - great FL, forensic medicine, fusion sageuk, found family and some great acting, with the cheesy romance not dominating too much.

Yes, at age 20, and he really did marry Chae Soo Bin's character.

Yes, there's a good Korean novel - If I had Your Face - set partly around such bars. They call them something like Salon Rooms? Or is it Lounge Rooms?

She's a badly written character.

Although I understand, storywise, why Jung So Min (probably) won't be in season 2, I'll really miss her. For me, she, along with the Crown Prince and Master Lee, makes this much more interesting than it otherwise would be.

As others have said, solid - but not amazing - first episodes. Hopefully some of the later cases will be more interesting/moving (which Move to Heaven and Tomorrow really nailed) and the 'romance' won't dominate too much.

I call anyone a twit who shows signs of it. Age gaps increase your chance of divorce, even small ones:

It does matter - statistically. I still haven't stated a preference, you twit. Yes, there are other pre (big differences in wealth, parents have been divorced) and post (infidelity, withholding of intimacy) risk factors, too. But an age gap is a big one.

Yes, even an age gap of 5 years (where either the man or woman is older), increases your chance of divorce. Bigger gaps mean an even bigger likelihood of divorce. I said nothing about my preferences, but possibly you missed that through all the spittle.

It does matter. Literally. The bigger the age gap the more likely you are to divorce, statistically. It's what's known as a risk factor.

Its confusing and the writers and/or casting agents didn't consult each other. Because there's an early scene where she is 12/13 tops and he is clearly already an adult, suggesting a gap of, say, 10 years. Then there's another, later scene suggesting she is 29 and he is 35. But she looks older than him (in present day) by some margin. Her being older isn't an issue - except that she's meant to be lots younger. Its like casting a short person for a character that everyone calls 'tall' in a drama. See also Jinxed at First.

I love Yoon Shi Yoon but wish it wasn't in a drama that romanticised alcoholism (a major risk factor in suicides) and alcohol-fuelled sexual assaults.

Like the premise, but it sounds like Dexter (or similar).

Sorry, just realised that @dmcinmb has answered my question further down the page.

Am I right in thinking that the super-cute Hyung is, in fact, a baddie?

I also don't see a degree in psychology as something to brag about - particularly when applied as badly as you do.
