The first few episodes you get to see everyone going through break-up/divorce/remorse/grief/old love/unrequited love/infidelity just to clear any past relationship and prepare every single character to start a new romance/relationship. The leads' love triangle/square might be the worst one I've ever seen. They are also the weakest part of the drama. At the same time, the main leads had a ridiculous amount of kisses and face slaps that the ML began anticipating to be slapped on the face. Writing wise, anything related to them was mostly problematic.
The drama ran into some seriously stupid moments/events that made it dip into unwatchable cheap melodrama territory "temporarily" but it still have its good moments to pull itself back up. The drama's message about family and self-worth was well presented. The last 10 episodes or so were nothing but smooth sailing, minimum conflict and good vibes. Of course, they had to go for the "maximum baby making" route for the ending. Give it a shot it's decent.
Netflix ruined Kdrama rhythm for the past 4-5 years and even Korean networks started adapting that. Give me back my good old 1 season 16-20 eps dramas!
You don't get to see Hwang Jung Min in a drama every day but when you do it's always a treat. The drama was pretty decent. It's not fully political, the first 10 episodes was drama/thriller/action and a lot of running around then the rest is mostly politics/elections. One question remained to be answered, why did they make Min Dong Ki like an emo boy covering one eye with his hair the whole time lol.
It's a bit strange they decided to take that route for the ending. The last 24 episodes were the worst part about the drama, that portion was useless and it dragged forever. It should have ended after Shi Woo got out of the hospital by few episodes. Seo Hyo Rim had the least amount of screen-time during the last 24 episodes too, might be a reason for the direction it took.
The drama itself is a generic melodrama in a business setting and all the business related shenanigans. The cast performance can be a big hit or miss depending on the scene. Both male leads were too stiff most of the time. Nothing stands out about the story, birth secret, rich/poor, in-laws ....etc, you know how it goes, prolonging everything to fill the time slot. Can't recommend it unless you're into these kind of long-running lower-budget type of melodramas, then you'll be able to tolerate it.
Basic investigation/crime drama but what stands out about it is the gory scenes of the earlier parts which are still partially censored. Almost zero gory scenes in season 2. The investigation is fine but the interaction between characters during their downtime or during lighter moments is just cringe. The case at the end of season 1/beginning season 2 was hyped up way too much that it ended up being disappointing. The end of season 2 is weird, telling the team to delete each other's numbers because there will never be season 3 lol. On a side note, season 1 first episode opening featuring Björk song was a nice touch

Good enough, joyous and atmospheric. Great performance from Jeon Do Yeon she stole the spotlight I wish to see her in more main roles nowadays (Better than most of the trash idols the industry is throwing in every new drama). If and only if this drama didn't include Zo In Sung in the cast, that would had been great.
The first episode gave enough information for the quality to be expected from the drama. I get what they were trying to say but that was done in the worst possible way...
Weak start, weak ending, decent middle part. I never wanted a protagonist to turn into an antagonist more than the lead of this drama Park Tae Soo. The only interesting part was the middle one where they had to make a decision, the rest is weak throughout and very similar to any other medical drama. Overall, it's an okay medical drama 6/10.
Ughhhh my eyes! It's too goddamn bright. I had to literally reduce my screen brightness by 10% lol. Anyway, this writing isn't even close to be in a functional state.
From a bird's eye view, it's kinda boring. It couldn't hold any interesting element for too long before the viewer's attention drop. The FL's actress didn't do a good job. Also too much focus on her relationships and the men around her. I would much prefer if it focused more on the daughter-father relationship because that's what it was advertised for. It had great potentials but it didn't get anywhere. The ending was predictable and underwhelming, not to mention their inclusion of one of those unnecessary time-skips. Still an okay story but a very mediocre one 4.75/10.
lil bro love his lil step-sister.... no biggie.... As tragic and depressing as the early 2000's drama could be. The drama is good if you are into such themes.
Poor quality, low budget, scuffed effects, poor color grading, murky story line, half functioning cast and a handful negative IQ characters. Uninspiring and dull cases. Might be the worst "negotiation" themed piece of media I've ever seen. Still watchable, I guess. [4/10]
