The RedBiscuits, for me, I disagree. Both seasons are equally great. I didn't feel they rushed it. They have different tone (S1 is dark, while S2 is less dark with more comedy scenes). I both enjoyed the 2 seasons. Maybe u feel that way because S1 has more angst and lot of anger since it featured the personal lives of the main characters. Or u prefer more action scenes, which S2 has less. For me, both seasons are great, storywise and actingwise. I actually like that S2 has more comedy scenes.

I said I don't like romance in crime thrillers, NOT character depth in personal level. U said in your 1st comment "...romantic or personal level", and since I don't agree with the "romance" part, hence my reply. Yes, characters need to have character development or depth in personal level, but it can be done without romance. That's what I meant in my comment.

Crime thrillers such as Voice, Special Affairs, etc. successfully have conveyed character depth, without any romantic element.

@Kdramafan | No i think he just doesn't want to be related to ger anymore since he is breaking the law. |

Hmmm.. He ignored her and u can see that his demeanor changed upon seeing her, which is out of his character, especially towards women. He is respectful of women (unless they're the culprit). He wouldn't have that reaction for that purpose. He would still act professional by saluting back.

If u analyze his facial reaction and body language, it screams "I saw my ex who hurt me in the past". Well, I reacted the same when I saw my ex. I also noticed the same reaction in dramas with characters who had broken up and inadvertently saw each other in public.

I like crime thrillers with less to no romance at all. Better that way. No unnecessary love quarrel/drama. Just focused on work-related cases and issues.

yeah, that's what I assumed too, based on his reaction. He has that face when he is angry or annoyed. Maybe seeing her reminds him of a painful incident.

Crime/Law procedural drama usually shows a case in the last few minutes, with the characters shown solving the said case. The case doesn't need to be shown as solved---because it is implying that the characters continue solving cases.

it's not open ending.. that's how crime investigation/procedural/law thrillers usually ends. They will show a new case in the last few minutes, with the characters seen taking actions to solve the case. It just mean that they are continuing solving/investigating crimes.

IM YourOnlyOne,

TV series has disclaimer to avoid potential lawsuit/legal action from any person/company/organization who believes they've been defamed by the portrayal in the said show/drama.

They did not put it to calm the public nor to make them dismiss the reality.

Actually, crimes featured in fictional crime/investigative drama are usually inspired/based from real life events. So rather than dismissing the reality, it gives AWARENESS to the public that these events may happen.

By the way, who are u referring to as "she" in #2? Kim So Yeon? Is she in Dr. Romantic 1? Because I didn't remember her being a cast. I checked her MDL profile, but Dr. Romantic 1 isn't in her lists of tv projects.

I think Go Eun has a crush on Do Gi, but I don't think Do Gi feel the same way (based on his facial reaction on what Go Eun said in the rooftop scene). I think he sees her as a close friend or a sister, and not in romantic way. And I think it's better that way. I don't prefer romantic relationships between main characters in crime thrillers because it's unnecessary.
