All over the place

Maybe it's because I am used to crime dramas like Mouse and Flower of Evil and Youth/Coming of age dramas like Reply series and Start Up this messed the bar for me.

The storyline was all over. At first it was good. It started as a good dramas with them tackling student life as KNPU. Then they stated to solve crimes without any help from their superiors and missing the ball each time. I figured after they messed up with the one case regarding the missing kid they would have recruited help for solving the case with the CEO.
Then it's how they solve the crimes. With the missing kid they didn't even think to check up on him physically to make sure he was okay after that botched stakeout or at least notify superior. When they did solve the case they got rewarded but the kid was missing for a month because of their botched stakeout. They got rewarded for fixing their own mistake technically.

In regards to the women phone he realized she was running from something or someone but still have someone else the phone and didn't think twice u til after she died.

When the friend died. They didn't think as cops studying in university when he was saying I think I am in trouble to alert the police to ping his phone. Earlier he said their was a commotion and they told him to call 911 and they didn't connect the dots until days later due to the horn.

It was just all over. It's like they started with them standing up to their seniors was like the test run, loan shark was stepping stone and bam they can now solve wide spread corruption..

Acting: The acting was okay. The ML but not the best. It was more like an amateur performance. From reading the comments it seems like this is his debut role. I hope his acting improves.

FL. Her acting was okay also. Her acting along with some of the students and KNPU staff was the better in the cast. I think it's because they had more experience overall.

TaeK: His performance was more of a hit or miss for me. When he had to express emotions during the scene with him, his best friend and the dad I didn't like iit at all.

Villian: Mostly a miss for me.
