Good but beware

First acting, our famous BL due really delivered so this drama lacked this cringe moment I got almost used to in BL dramas. Still dr. Bun really looked like someone who didn't know what to do with his hands on some scenes...
The storyline is like a diamond in the rough, in need of serious polishing. According to tag this drama was adapted from a novel, which made me wonder if all plotholes were the original author or screenwriter's fault because there are quite a lot of them.
I don't consider police or medical examination scenes as plotholes because procedures vary from country to country and it wouldn't be fair to judge them by my country's standarts.
Overall this drama starts a little slow and picks up peace in episode 6 or 7, the story skeleton is very good and has a lot of potential making it worth watching but as i mentioned before there is some problem with writing and plotholes.
If they revised the script properly it would really improve the overall experience. Still, it is much better plotwise than many other BL dramas.
Another thing was directing. one of the directors really liked close-ups and moving cameras around... please find another method to make a scene feel more dynamic because you overused this one.
Characters - there is some like Inspector M - that i loved to hate - his redemption didn't feel natural to me but overall his character felt like wasted potential if they give more rivalry role it would give another interesting storyline. While on the same time character like Sorawit had too much screen time without being really useful or having any kind of role in many scenes.
