Story seems pretty interesting - had to drop it.

So here are the following reasons why I had to drop this drama.

Story
The story as i said before is really interesting and i'm a huge fan of mystery and crime stories that's what piqued my interest in trying this drama in the first place. The way they established the crime story in the first minutes of the episode were well placed that would make you want to know more. But after that, everything goes downhill.

Acting/Cast
It's sad to say this but the male lead(Herman Li) got me :/ ... I mean he's a handsome guy and seems suited for the role but his acting was not that good, I just didn't feel the acting at all. Aside from that, the rest of the actors were alright. The other lead(Joe Xu) on the other hand was great so far! He's really funny and he got me laughing.

Music and Production
What can I say here, the pieces and the ost was not one of those osts that you can remember or get in tune with. Now here comes the big "wtf" moment for me was the production. the costumes were alright, the make up was alright but my goodness i was mindblown by how they would use green screen for scenes such as places surrounded by trees, the green screen was so bad the proportions werent realistic and i understand that this mightve occured because of the budget but couldnt they just have filmed it in a real place since its just the two characters walking on a path surrounded by trees?... this is what made me drop the drama.

I still don't get why there's a season 2 of this but if you want to watch a funfilled low budget comedy detective drama then you could give this a try but for me, i'd skip.

Thank you for reading this review!
