The series have a very interesting premise of using psychometric to help solve crime. Psychometric itself is not admissible in court, so you still need hard evidence to back up the clues found by using psychometric. If you like crime drama than you should give this one a watch.

For me the story was not developed well enough, especially in the first half. If I didn’t watch the ending and conclusion, I probably would give the story 6/10, but the ending was really satisfying and makes me understand their decision better regarding the first half, that’s why it gets 7.5/10. I still wish they develop the story better in the first half.

There were several issues that I really dislike that’s really prominent during the first half. One of them is the lack of psychometric used, I mean this is supposed to be a series about somebody with psychometric abilities, but he barely used it, like almost never. Yes it could be part of the development, but I don’t think that’s the best way to go about it. Another thing I really dislike is how incompetent the series make the police look, other than Eun Ji Soo and even she’s not that great. I also really dislike how stupid and immature they make Lee Anh character. I mean he’s supposed to be in his early twenties, victim of trauma and tragedy, but he’s literally made into a puppy, a stupid one at that.

Other than those really annoying things, the plot was great. I really the curve ball they threw by midway point, when they main plot start to really be revealed. I also love all the relationship between each characters, they are so entangled and complicated once they revealed what really happen in the past. Really love the ending, it’s so satisfying and rewarding, I wish they make a 2nd season because I want to see them all again in a better setting.

The cast for this show is great, they all acted their character perfectly. Kim Won as Kang Sung Mo stands out the most for me. He portray Sung Mo’s troubled character so well, he’s brotherly love to Lee Anh also come across so naturally but awkwardly, which is perfect. Park Jin Young as Lee Anh also portray the character well, I just wish they develop the character a bit more. Shin Ye Eun as Yoon Jae In was very lovable, her character is portrayed and developed very well. We could see the vulnerability but also the steel resolve she has. All the other casts are also great, even the supporting casts.

I love the music for the series. There are 3 songs that I have been keep playing in my list, ‘With You’ (by Promm), ‘Wake’ (by JUS2) and this is my favorite ’Shadows on the Wall’ (by Janet Suhh). I also really like how they always show what happens in 2005, when the fire happen in the apartment, in the first 5 minutes of a new episode. It keep on build up your knowledge on what happen in the past. I don’t think I will rewatch this series anytime soon, because once you know the twist the series lack anything interesting.
