Great performances and interesting cases until it fell flat on the last one
What really stood up for me in this drama is Eiji Akaso’s charismatic and enigmatic portrayal of detective Haie. His performance was really interesting and brilliant to watch and it made me more invested to catch more of him in action. Other actors were great and really cute with their comedic moments. The only one I couldn’t stand was vulture, he was so off putting.
The cases started out really strong and you really have to guess what happens behind those will. But I felt that the writer kind of suffer from writer’s block at the end because it just felt like the detective and solving part is more and more predictable. The final showdown was a total let down because it just felt like Haie and co. was able to defeat the baddie so easily when he supposed to be really powerful. My favourite cases are the forgery, confectionery and the cat one.
As usual, music is not a strong aspect for j drama but I guess the ending song was not terrible, and the tune does stuck in my head.
