A delightful detective series with lovable characters

I love crime mysteries so i decided to watch this. No high expectations as it was not hyped by any media outlet. But to my delight, it surpassed most if not all the dramas I was watching at the moment. It has no traffic stars to draw audience but as you watched it, it grows and grows to be a favourite. It relies on strong/tight plot line, fast pacing, humorous dialogues, excellent acting and interesting antoganists. Yes, one can guess quite accurately who did it or how it happened. Yet there was a freshness to the storyline...which I can't explain. I was not bored nor tempted to fastforward any scene. I sympathized with the characters and chuckled at their wittiness. I proudly watched as the younger ML grows in character as if he was my own 'child'. No character was redundant nor silly. The ending tied up nicely yet it hints that there is more to come.. If it is developed into a regular series (like the American detective shows), I will watch it. The only sore point for me was the CGI as I am used to better ones but it is acceptable. Yes, I will rewatch it when I run out of good shows to watch.
