This was a really exciting drama. It is dark and serious and honestly? An absolute joy to see.
It was very smartly done with the constant back and forth between the past and the present. It gave enough mysteries to keep on on the edge of the seat plus the FL did not become annoying this way, which would probably have happened if they had not done so.
From all the actors I do think Lee Dong Wook was the best one. Absolutely loved his scenes but over all all did really well.
The only big minus is the ending. What the heck was that? It made me more confused than ever. It seriously was out of the blue. Yeah, we thought it would happen but the way they did it, without giving any hint why or what happened....ahhhh it is a let down
Are they hoping for a s2? I seriously hope so otherwise that ending really did the drama injustice.
9,5/10

lol? that's really lame.

Watch Burning Ice, Watcher or Trinity of Shadows
these were on par for me with Signal
or try some Nordic crime dramas. They produce some amazing things :)

oh the trailer looks great! And Son Suk Ku is an absolute amazing actor! I have never seen Choi Woo Shik in a drama series though but I am curious to see how he does.
Very excited for this one

ohhhhh yeah that could be it but if he did.... ah man......I don't know but I really hope that is not the reason. Coz he has got to know what danger he is putting Ji An in and even when she is capable of keeping herself alive......I dunno that does make it seem like he is willing to take any chances of Ji An's life just to get to Bale, which would again make his actions seem strange.

absolutely! plus he kept replaying the voice recording of Ji An. It is all quite suspicious.

same! But then I was looking for clues on a faked death XD And when the short haired lady arrived and protected Ji An she mentioned he was alive, so I was like "yep totally knew it" but where is heee.......
I still do not think that he is dead coz honestly? What sort of death was that? It really did not do justice to the character plus him actually "killing" himself and therefore he knew what he was doing.

he really has to be otherwise the drama makes no sense anymore.

Oh she did gain nearly what? 28 pounds? 30 pounds? Something like that. There are a ton of articles about it. And on YouTube you will even find an "Happy Together" episode form 2017 where she goes deeper into her struggles of gaining and losing weight for her role in weightlifting fairy.
I remember in 2017 seeing articles here being posted too about it so maybe they are somewhere in the archives findable too :)

lol, while I do agree on that part, he is still far away from that age where it is considered hard to lose weight.
The problem is that these bodies of actors which are constantly put under some sort of diet are not working how a normal body is. so actually the weight problem is something they will face 10 years younger or older (and actually the same interview was given by Lee Sung Kyung when she had to gain weight for Weightlifting Fairy in 2016)

Kinda think it's the step mom. Since his dad had to have an affair for him to be born, since his brother is older than him.

I don't know how to feel about this drama. It is definitely very light and humorous, so for thrillers fans like me...not the best drama. But there is a formula for similarish types of drama that end with a gripping case. So with that in hindsight it may be a good one in the future. Just currently it is kinda meh.

Really well done drama recap! Thank you for taking the time even when you are busy with exams :) All the best for them!
For me, I kinda expected something different with the drama. The story was not bad per say it just didn't click with me so it ended up on my dropped list.

how do you know? Do you happen to know any spoiler? I realllyyyyy would not mind to be spoiled so pls pls share if you do.

I agree with you. I don't necessarily see it as a problem but I also think it would benefit a drama more if they'd actually choose younger actors to portray the character's younger version. Plus, a lot of younger actors would get the necessary recognition and be able to gather some experience.

there are student/teacher romance stories in western shows too (eg. "pretty little liars", "the mess you leave behind", or even the new movie "Miller's Girl"), though less common.
But this is always been one of the more popularish storylines in asian works. So I don't truly see a difference there, especially considering Japanese productions. What I find more bothersome is that its often detaboorized, as in they don't truly show the negative aspects to it, and highly only the positive ones. Western productions focus more on those negative ones.

This was a really good drama. It had a wonderful story balancing humour and suspense quite well. The characters were truly gems and had a wonderful relationship with each other. The romance was also very sweet. This truly was a very likeable drama.
9,5/10

well, they are an established couple who lives together. So kind of. But you shouldn't watch it for the romance tbh, coz you will probably get disappointed. At least I can't imagine this couple facing such a rosy future

I really did enjoy this one. Not as much as season 1 but it was still refreshing and nice. I agree with what my sub commenters said.....the new girl take a bit of getting used to. At times she is absolutely annoying but overall the actress did well
8/10

ahhhh ok ok yes I agree with you but I do think there are some thrillers where it is a little more difficult. Im speaking of thrillers like "Gold Panning", "Trinity of Shadows", "Burning Ice", "Watcher". These I consider absolute masterpieces but I do think do not get the best reception from MDL.
