F*ck ideology!

This movie is definitely a cinematic masterpiece! In the beginning what caught my eyes the most was how beautiful the transitions were in the movie! The cinematography is insanely good! And do kyung's acting is as always *chef's kiss*

I'm not a fan of dancing or musical movies since I'm not interested in those ( specially dancing, music I can tolerate ) plus I think they take us away from the main storyline but my god this movie was just absolutely amazing for a "non fan" like me. I find the practice scenes boring usually but here they were made in such a beautiful way that you can't help but keep staring!

I truly enjoyed the friendship between the characters and all of them were well written individually. No one was super hero kinda character and everyone was very humane which I enjoy.

The thing that caught my heart the most gas to be it's different opinion on war. Idk if everything in the movie is historically correct but I think half of are living in a country rn that suffered from war or colonization once and I also know that we're still studying about that history and our school are still brainwashing us that the country that attacked us decades ago sucks and every human being from that country is a monster although the people living in that country now weren't even alive at that time.

Most of the war movies I've seen follows the same ideology which I don't enjoy cuz I simply think war bring misery to all of the countries involved, although the killers were truly wrong, most of them were forced by government officials or their friends to become a killer in the name of "revenge". This movie gave another opinion which I agree with.

Brainwashing people in the name of ideology is wrong. Killing people in the name of revenge is also wrong according to me ofc. The movie also showcased us how Americans and Koreans that are supposed to be enemies still can be friends cuz they both are suffering from the war and share the same misery. I appreciate the movie for showing a different aspect of war.

And last but not least! The movie is tragic like really tragic so prepare yourself! Now what are you waiting for ? Watch this masterpiece now!

This drama was very confusing at first
as you will be wondering “what is the
female protagonist is doing?” but after
a few episodes you will get a sense of
it. Basically this series is about a girl
whose identity is never described in

the drama, no one knows where she is
from and where she goes and
anything about her except the fact that
her name is NANNO and she is
definitely not a human.

She is more like a grand daughter of
Satan. In the show we see her going to
different school every new episode and
destroying the lives of bad people.
Basically the show’s main focus is to
make the real life’s victims into the

winners. For example if a girl got killed
by her classmate just because she is
beautiful then that’s a sad story and
the girl is the victim but what if the
dead girl comes back to life again and
again and terrify her killers?

That is what the show is all about.
Nanno thinks that there is no good in
people and every person has a bad
side to him or her. All she does is to
wake that bad side of one certain
person and then they do a certain bad
thing and nanno punishes them for it.
The punishments were not that
extreme.

Sometimes I thought that they deserved
more punishments but nevertheless
nanno was not a killer and so she never
killed anyone. All the people that were
killed in the series was totally not
according to her plan and was pure
coincidence.

Now I, of course, liked the series a lot.
The main theme of the series was
unique and every episode had a new
plot, new characters, new crime and
new punishments. It was always
interesting to see what bad thing will
they do and what kind of punishments
will nanno give them. The drama was all
about the bad sides of a human as how
bad even high school students can be.

The people who are supposed to be
innocent have such demons inside them
and of course the series never imply to
every student or to every person to be
bad. The series even have one single
episode where the suspect was not bad.
Nanno’s new target for every new

episode were kinda easy to guess but
the twist that we were given further
were not at all easy to guess.I loved the
actress who played nanno and loved
nanno’s character on a whole.
Especially her laugh, I am kinda
addicted to her laugh lol.

Now I said many good things about the
drama but the drama had some faults
too. The drama is fantasy mixed with
slice of life mixed with psychology and
dark humour. Due to this it may be
confusing to viewers as to what the
message of the drama is. The fact that
they tried to mix slice of life with fantasy
was a creative and bold decision but it
may be confusing to some viewers.

Of course the show’s main message
was to stop doing these kinds of bad
things but their approach to deliver that
message was different from others.
Instead of teaching the viewers and the
bad people, they made them have a fear

of nanno. The whole message was “stop
doing these types of immortal things or
someone like nanno will show up in your
life”. In conclusion, the whole show is
about KARMA. If you love dark humour
and likes psychological things just like
me then this one is for you!

Its a slow but great mystery

This was rather a slow drama but it was
worth it. I mean I couldn't guess the
killer and it's not my fault because they
changed the gender of the killer. Ok! It's
not my fault for guessing wrong! I am
still smart! 😂

Ok so as you read the story is about a
unpopular dull novelist who gets five
pretty and rich women in his house and
half of them even likes him 😂 like that's
one wild fantasy. I mean I'm sorry but
he is so dull! That was very unrealistic

for me like I mean ok one girl liked but
more then another girl liked and then
another girl wanted sleep with and then
another girl went on a date and kissed
him, like the hell is wrong with them ?

Half of the drama was debating about
who is the best writer- our protagonist or
the successful and handsome writer.
Honestly, in my opinion both of the
writers sucks 😂 I mean in our
protagonist's novels nothing happens.
Nothing! There is no twist or any
obstacles in the life of the characters.
The story starts and finishes and

nothing happens. Even he himself has
said that and I mean ok I get it his father
is a killer so like he can't kill anyone even
in a book but if you don't want to kill
then that's ok even though it's a bad
thing but that's ok but you have to do
something! The book he wrote seemed
too boring like seriously.

While on the other hand, the other writer
writes only for himself and to be
successful. He has no passion for novels
and just like his own novels and to me
such kind of novelist sucks to becuase
to be a good writer you first have to read
other people's writing and have to
appreciate other people's art but he is not
at all like that. He just thinks of himself.

He is too selfish and I know I shouldn't
critisize an author becuase of his
personality but I just can't understand
how can you become an author when
you don't even love other's novels? Like
how ? The drama constantly gave us
hints as how his novels are not at all
interesting and he is famous just becuase
he is handsome and the company he is
in is famous.

I really though want to read both of their
works to like be able conclude who is the
best cuz the competition between is a
major part of the drama I think. By
showing these two authors I know the
drama tried to show Japan's narrow
mindness. I don't if that's how really the
case in Japan is or not but if it then that
would be pretty bad. They showed us how
if you have a big name your novels will if

you don't then it will not sell. That how
people don't care about the quality just
watched or reads the things of famous
person. I guess both of the authors were
bad just to show this. How an untalented
and unsuccessful author became
successful just becuase he had five rich
and popular women by his side who
promoted his work.

But the drama is not all about this book
selling and society things. I don't wanna
spoil so I won't say much but these five
women are not going to bring only good
luck to our protagonist's life. These
women are going to bring bad luck too.
After all the drama is a mystery. The big
mystery of the drama is who sent the
invitation.

The drama is pretty mature and have
some 18+ scene so I it only recommend it
to adults. Besides that the drama is a
pretty good mystery and you can finish it
only in 5 hours so it's good for binging.
Romance is kind of there but not too
much. I wouldn't call it romance though
😅

So yes the drama is worth watching at
least for one time. It's also about the
character growth of our protagonist.

Refreshing drama

This drama had everything I want in a jdrama. The best quality of it i could say that the script is really strong. You can see how much work went into it. This drama felt so refreshing because of the writing itself. It mainly focuses on the main characters "Ishiko" and "Haneo" as their nicknames. They are very opposites to each other, both in their personality and work ethics but due to that, they compensate for each other in work. Ishiko's hard headedness and emotional nature really supports Haneo and the client and Haneo's intelligence and wittiness saves them a lot of times too.

They both fill in each other's gap and their relationship is such a delight to watch because they always bicker but also start to act like dorks together and start to trust each other a lot. You can see how slowly they start caring for one another. It's a beautiful development of a relationship to witness and what made it beautiful was the fact that it was all platonic. Usually, dramas tend to write off every good relationship between a man and woman as romantic but that's not the case here which is what I love the most about it. Yes you can love a person and that person can be very important to you without it being a romantic relationship. The way they both respected each other despite Ishiko being a subordinate and then having different opinions was also refreshing.

The side character of Oda Ao was a delight. He brought an innocence and cuteness to the show. I loved him so much. The way the writers added his story to add him to be the part of the team was great.

The drama is great because it has episodic format for each case but these cases are not really the cases you see being portrayed a lot. These all are very odd cases as our protagonists are "local lawyers" but the portrayal of these cases is so important but they feel so much more humane than just a bunch of murder mysteries jumbled in a episodic drama. This drama shows that being a lawyer is not just about fighting in the court, most of the time, the lawyer should try to solve the issue before the case gets into the court through settlement ( the good ones i mean). All the cases are refreshing as they are something new, they always have a good amount of mystery to them and the show so provides a good amount of social commentary without making it look preachy.

It really mixes everything really well. I think everyone should watch this drama if you want to experience good and refreshing writing. For example in one scene, the main characters say "Cheers" and then drink it like that because it's too overfilled to put it up and I think that's the most realistic portrayal of humans in a drama I've seen haha

So yes I just loved it all. The characters were lovable, especially the main trip and it was a delight to see them grow gradually throughout the cases and the bond they developed.

Ok so i was thinking of watching
it for a long time now because
this movie looked very unique to
me. I mean in cute movies like
this we see a BEAUTIFUL cute
girl fall in love with a HANDSOME
guy and all but here we see a
BEAUTIFUL cute girl falling for an
ugly guy. Well he was stated ugly
but according to me he is not!

That guy is ugly but his heart is
made of gold and thats what the
girl falls for but there is a
confusion! The "ugly" guy has a
" handsome" friend and so the
ugly guy thinks the girl likes his
friend and a lot of
misunderstandings got created!

On a whole this movie was a full
on childish misunderstandings
but i liked it nevertheless i don't
know why. The girl loved him so
much and that made my heart
beat and the guy's love for her was
not less. I loved his friend though.

Although he was handsome he
wasn't a jerk and he cared about
his friend very much. I loved their
friendship too. The most i liked
was the both main's stupidness
they both were stupid lol

I don't remember much about the the music so low score for it. The acting was good enough. If you think it's overacting, no they are just supposed to act like this on live actions lol.

The ending was the best though.
Overall the movie was very good
to light my mood up as the
characters were very likable. The
story was pure sweet with no
beautiful bishes telling the FL to
get lost and all. It was a pure story
of two teens. If you just want to laugh or if you are in a bad mood and want to feel good. This Movie's for you! It's dumb but it's still pure entertainment.

I saw there are only 2 reviews for this drana so i decided to add my two cents. This is a review i wrote for another website originally but here you go -

After watching I can say, I liked it. If I say honestly, I was pretty much bored in between the episodes. As a person who watches a lot of mystery dramas the story was pretty predictable for me. The whole theme of the drama was interesting and I really wanted to know who was the killer but what bored me was that there was nothing going on interesting other than finding out who the killer was.


As a person who is a big mystery fan, all of my favourite mystery dramas had something to entertain me in between the episodes rather than the main plot of finding who the killer is. Of course the main motive was to find the killer but they gave me a lot of events and things to entertain me in between the time they were finiding the killer but this drama wasn't like that. So if I compare it to the dramas I've watch in the same theme and genre I didn't like it that much cuz I've seen a few dramas like this already. So, becuase of that I was pretty much bored in the whole drama.

That's why I think the drama should've been shorter cuz they certainly did not had more story to entertain the audience. But the drama was still very good. Honestly speaking I always guess who the killer before the drama tells the Audience but in this one I didn't saw that coming. So overall the drama is good and I liked it. I'd reccomend it to the people who are not much experienced in mystery dramas and the people who love the mystery genre.

Hilarious!!!

This drama is one of the funniest shows
I've ever seen. Like it's so funny omg it
made me laugh so much that my
stomach was hurting, my eyes even got
teary cuz of laughing too much omg
😂😂

More seriously, this is a Japanese
sitcom and see Japan comedy is very
different than normal comedy.
Japanese people like dry humour and
that's the reason most of their comedy
shows have dry humour. As a person
who is a big big fan of dry humour. This

show was just made for me. I'm saying
all this before cuz I'm kinda warning you

people before recommending the drama
cuz the show isn't funny for everyone.
That's the reason many people
international people found it boring and
hence it wasn't much popular
internationally but if you do like the way
Japanese people make comedies or if
you are a person with dry sense of

humour, this show will kill you cuz it's so
so funny. They don't have any particular
story or characters and all that haha.
Afterall it's just a sitcom so all of that
doesn't matter. There's no seriousness in
it which surprised me a bit cuz Japanese
shows with no life lessons are hard to
find lmao. It's just a sitcom of crazy

people working midnight in a
convenience story. And when I say
" crazy" I mean it cuz god I've never seen
more crazier and weirder characters than
these people 😂😂 the show is full of
"WTF" situations and it's so fun!

The actors did great, the script was even
greater. One thing I loved about it was
that they showed clips of actors laughing
at the middle of the scenes. like they
didn't cut out bloopers which made it
more funny 😂😂 another thing is that

the drama is based on a manga and I'll be
honest, I, most of the time don't like

dramas and movies like that cuz they are
cringy af since actors try to act like an
anime character and it's supposed to be
normal but it's not cuz no one talks like
that! I mean some live actions are actually
good and I acknowledge that but most of

the time it's like that but here the actors
intentionally make these kind of faces and

it's so damn funny lmao it's funny cuz no
one behaves like that and they used that
thing. You get what I mean right ? 😂😂😂
Idk well whatever. Overall I don't think you
can write a review about a sitcom, can you
? It's just a very fun watch and definitely
recommend it!

Incredibly good

This drama has an
amazing plotline and amazing
characters with a great lesson and with
the best cast possible.

I mean kento, mackenyu and suda in
one drama? Are you kidding me? This is
like a blessing to our eyes! Lol but really
the cast is well chosen but thing I like
about this drama is that many other
dramas focuses on plot and forget
about characters and some dramas give
their main focuses to characters
instead of dramas but in this one they
balanced plot and characters incredibly.

The main theme of the drama was a
cliché and yet creative too. I mean we
have seen time travel in so many forms
but I have to say that the way of time
travel this drama has shown is without
a doubt creative. The characters in the
drama are as well written as the plot.

Every character is different from other
and has some flaws and good things
about them too. They all were very
realistic. I really liked the character
Takauji, the way he was written was
interestingly incredible. He was a villain
and yet a lot of people sympathized
and fell for him too.

Maybe because mackenyu is so
handsome but the way takauji’s
character was written was something I
really liked. I also liked how every
character was important in the series.
If a character did not got enough justice
or spotlight in the main series they gave
it in the todome no parallel one. Every
little thing was important in this drama.

I loved kento in this role the most after
him role as kakeru in orange. Kento
always plays a high school student and
I really got bored of that but when I saw
him in this role I really loved him cuz he
was finally not a student! Lol I mean
seriously I am tired of seeing him
uniform like when will he grow up? Lol

Now let’s come to my sweetie, suda
masaki. Although his role in this drama
was short but he was my favourite
character in the whole show! He was a
scene stealer! Now unpopular opinion
but I love suda masaki more than I love
kento yamazaki. #sorrynotsorry.

Overall the plot is really good, if you are
a fan of time travel things then you
need to watch this one but if you are not
a fan of time travel and likes mystery
plus romance then this one will still be
your time. this one is not psychological

and that is why I would love if you guys
watch cuz here the kisses are not at all
awkward but they are DEADLY awesome!
( pun intended lol) it has a few plot
twists too! Also the ending is so
satisfying and I really liked it.

So watch it! If all the above reason are
not making you watch this one then
watch it for kento, mackenyu or suda!

Loved it

Did i said I love this drama? It has become
my favourite! ( Of course) I mean it has
everything that i need in my
drama-tearjerker, psychological, characters,
friendship and a little romance and
science fiction. I swear although the drama
is a little sci-fi but it explains life and
human nature perfectly! Story of a mentally
challenged person has to be sad , right?

But this one is different . Yes it is sad but
its not all about saku being stupid . Its
about was saku good when he was stupid
or he became good when he became
smarter? The questions are answered
slowly at the end.

Its the story about saku who is like 6 year
old boy although he is 28 years old . He is
often called " stupid" but he doesn't wants
to be stupid becuase of his loved ones he
wants to become smart so the people he
love will be proud of him but when he
really got genius becuase of a scientific
miracle he realises that being smart is not
all the best.

He realizes the corruption of the world and
struggels to find his " equal" friends . Its
an amazing story of an amazing boy aka
my son😂yes i adopted him😂I don't want
to be his girlfriend. He is my son no
matter what 😌 Yeah so its amazing
drama! I swear! Every character have their
own story which i love the most! Overall
one of the best drama!

Ps. The actor is hot and one of my favourite
and that surely is a plus point.

I need season 2

I loved this drama so so so much! Like
this one got the place in my
favourites from episode 1! From the
beginning till the end the drama
doesn’t disappoint a little. It is so
intruiging and intresting. The one
thing I liked most about the drama is
how it unfolded every element and
character of the story little by little.

Like the pace of the drama was so
perfect! Another thing is that they made
me suspiocious of every little
character! Like literally any character
can be the killer! Everyone has a
motive and the power to kill our victim
and that factor played with my mind so
much. Like first a character is
introduced to us and then after 20 or

30 minutes it is told to us that "oh
he/she can be the killer!" But then
after a while “ no maybe not” is told to
us but then again they become the
suspect like god after watching this
drama I surely got some trust issues
lol. Every new episode changes the
possible suspect lol. Another thing I
liked about this drama is its characters.

Normally dramas are either plot-driven
or character driven, this one was both.
Maybe plot-driven more but the way
they showed every character’s flaws
and problems is something I really
liked. No character was innocent and I
love things like that hihi. I know I’m
weird but whatever.

The acting is again so so good. I
literally felt that all the characters
existed in real life like it was so real. I
have to applaud for all the cast.
Especially the actor who played hwang
shi mok cuz its not at all easy to play
a character who is emotionless and
yet show his emotions in way that the

audience knows what he is feeling but
without spoiling the fact that he is
emotionless and the way he did it was
incredibly good. Other actors were of
course amazing but I have to give him
a special mention cuz god I think he
deserves award for his acting.

The drama is not at all for the people
who like light dramas cuz I don’t think
there is anything light about this
drama. There 0.01% romance in it lol.
But if you are looking for a mystery/
thriller drama that plays with your
mind and makes it nearly impossible

to guess who is the killer then this
one is surely for you. Now let me tell
you a fun fact that made my respect
for this drama even bigger- me, a
person who MOSTLY guesses the
killer before perfectly right, failed to
guess him/her in this one.

Honestly till the end, my guess was
that “ anyone can be the killer” lol like
god it was hard to even fix on
someone and say “ yes he/she is a
killer!” that drama tricked ME! That
insanely good it is! Lol I am really sad
and fascinated by the fact that I
couldn’t guess lol.

Also even though the drama is a
mystery I loved the way they showed
us about korea’s corruption. The
message of the drama was to literally
inform and tell the people to stop
doing this even though we know no
one’s gonna stop but like its not gonna
hurt to try, right? I love dramas that
give a kind of social message.

Even though the drama is a mystery
and a very brilliantly done one it made
ME cry two times! And honestly that’s
a lot for me! Korean dramas often fail
to make me cry but this was an
exception. Overall this drama is one of
the best. If you like mystery/thrillers
then please do watch this one!

It is insanely good! Every episode and
every second is important like
honestly I didn’t even blink for a
second cuz I was afraid that would
miss something haha. Everything
from was perfect. The story was
brilliantly written and done/shown by
the director and the actors. I love this
drama so much!

A masterpiece

Today I finished this drama and I swear
this is one of the best stories I have ever
known. Many people don’t believe when
I tell them this but I am hopeless
romantic and this is a love story that
transcends time, body and everything.
With that the drama’s sub-genre is
psychological and you guys already
know how I love this genre.

On top of that every character is well
written and has his or her own story. It
has one of the biggest plot twist which
made my mind go crazy in the first half
of the drama cuz I had so many theories
and there was one theory of mine that I
thought it is correct and it was! And I
swear I have never been so happy but
the day I got to know my theory was
right I was like in cloud 9!

I was screaming “I was right!” like a
crazy person the whole day and my
mom confirmed that I am crazy person
lol. Although the series has one big plot
twist that only intellectuals like me can
guess lol but there are many more new
plot twists to it and I am not lying when
I say that this is the most creative way I
have seen time travel in dramas like
ever.

Kiss that kills is the second most and
this one is the first one. I am having a
hard time to explain how the drama is
so good cuz if I say a lot then I will
spoil the story and that is not at all
acceptable cuz the drama is all about
its twisted story with it's unique
characters with one of the best romance
and the OSTs are freaking good! Like
sooo good! Every single OST has won
over my heart.

The drama is about TRUE LOVE and
even though I don’t believe in love at
first sight I have to admit that I believe
in true love and I guess many of us
does. The first 2 episode of the drama
can be labeled as boring cuz they are
introductions but after 3rd episode the
story starts to develop itself.

I swear this is one of the saddest story I
have ever known following moon lovers
and 1 litres of tears. I would call this
drama truly a masterpiece. As I said
earlier that I cannot say much more cuz
it will spoil the story but please watch
this drama if you are into true love, time
travel, mystery and psychological things.
Although the drama was very famous
in Taiwan it is not popular internationally
so please watch it you will not regret it.

The best live-action drama ever

I think I have never ever talked about this
masterpiece with anyone and that is a big
shame. It is based on a very famous
Japanese anime and as I was very lazy to
watch so many episodes of an anime I
watched this short drama with my mother
and well we pretty much were addicted.
Like it was so good.

The mystery as who the killer was superb
and well we are proud to say that we
guessed right! Our guess was right! But it
is not all about the serial killer. I mean the
most part is of that bit also as to how he
will fight with him. It is totally a mystery
drama with a mix of time travel but is
totally worth and I seriously love how
realistic it was.

For example spoiler alert!! The fact that in
order to save agirl from getting killed he
himself fell in coma for 5 years and in the
end that girl married his bestfriend stil kills
me. Like this is so real lol. Spoiler end.

I swear this a masterpiece kind of drama
with perfect acting, cinematography and of
course the story was all just perfect!

Just incredibly amazing

This
drama is just awesome. It is very well
written, all of the actors did a perfect job.

The cinematography is just perfect. The
direction is perfect too. The OST gives me
goosbumps and is always played at the
perfect timing. Every character is very
well-written and the drama has full of
twists and turns.

It a serious drama with serious topics but
the fact that it still makes you laugh out
loud at times is just fabulous. Its like the
drama is so perfect that it controls your
emotions. It’s a full roller coaster of
emotions and the fact the villain in this
drama isn’t shown as the “ most evil”
person is so much amzing. Like in other
dramas when they show that villain is the
worst person.

This drama showed us the perspectic of
the villain too and her reasons as why she
does the stuff she doing now. All the
characters have their own flaws. Mostly
dramas try to show that the main leads
are down-to-earth and are just perfect
but this drama did the exact opposite. It
showed how the main characters were
flawed a lot.

Also the drama gives a very strong
message to not only the Korean society
but to the whole world that why should
you pressurize your students so much to
study. Its just an awesome drama and I
just don’t have words to explain my love
for it.

I binged watched this one with my
mother and our expectations were so high! The plot looked interesting the reviews and rating was good. Every review was positive. And the tags said that's it a mystery and fantasy drama which are my favourite genres but omg this was so disappointing.

It was just a disaster. It was just super confusing! Now let me make it clear, I love dramas that confuses me
and plays with my mind. Well this
drama is really in that kind of category
and honestly I love dramas like that but

only when it all makes sense in the end
but this one...nothing made sense! It was
all rubbish and God I was so angry. Like
confusing plot is only fun when they
explain it all in the end. Ok I get it that
they wanted a cliff hanger ending for

season 2 but my problem is not the
ending! The thing is that they never
answered the questions asked in the
whole season rather they'll answer all of
them in the next season which is not
officially announced to be happening but

I think it'll happen or else all of the drama
would be just crap. For example other
dramas with season two doesn't do
things like that - stranger answered all
it's questions and still us fans are
waiting for season 2 . The gifted again
answered all the questions asked in

season 1 and still had a cliff-hanger
ending so people anticipate about the
next season. As well as signal
answered all the questions asked and in
the very end, asked more questions

which will be answered in the next
season but this drama didn't explained
a thing which is the main reason why I
hate this drama. It had too much characters and it was a mess m I couldn't care less about all of them. I just wanted to know what's going on. What kind of drama am I even watching ?! Lol if it does gets a season 2 I'd watch it but I'm not sure my hate for this drama would go. I honestly feel a lot of people watched and loved this drama only for the side BL couple and not the story.

I was pretty excited to watch this drama cuz I've only heard good things about it since it started airing till now. Someone told me that it's as good as dark in terms of handling the time travel thingy and they were right! To be honest, I don't wanna compare dark to this cuz 2 masterpieces cannot be compared so let's just leave it at that.

But my god I thoroughly enjoyed this drama so much and it was cleverly written! There was not a single moment that bored me and it's honestly hard to find kdramas as long as 16 episodes that doesn't bore me for even a second but here's this one! All the characters were so understandbly ( if that's a word lol ) smart . Usually thriller dramas starts becoming frustrating because of dumb characters but here this was not a case at all.

Usually mystery dramas either have police as main leads or else the police is corrupt or dumb and leads do all the work. Although here the leads do most of the work, the police is neither dumb nor corrupt and they do help them fairly.

The Villians are also interesting and entertaining and I loved how they weren't always labelled as the bad guys and we were explained their situations too. Atleast some of them.

I genuinely started liking the characters and got attached to them so that was a plus point. The story is full of plot twists but they are handled in a way so it doesn't butcher the story and characterization and that's what I love most about the drama.

Even though the plot/theme is nothing new and the drama does have some flaws but I think those flaws are very minor and shouldn't decrease my rating but still they exist so I'm giving it a 9.5 but it's a masterpiece for me for sure and is forever gonna stay in my favourites!
