Through episode 7, this is probably one of my favorite female lead characters. She's smart, has some common sense but also isn't some model of perfection.

Without this review, I would have given up after the first or second episode. I stuck with it and am on episode 5 and am hooked. Making fun of all the romance/book/drama tropes is hilarious. I have to admit, I don't have much interest in evil half sister.

It's been weird noticing the number of people who actually wanted him to be one. I just personally don't see how that is all that interesting. I find it more fascinating how quickly people judge people who are different, whether due to a personality disorder or just someone who marches to the beat of a different drummer.

I would start at the halfway point. I don't think you are going to escape spoilers so I wouldn't wait until the end. So A is my answer.

I think in Western entertainment we have crossed the Rubicon of glamorizing serial killers. They are actually boring irl. However, some other non lead actors got kudos for playing serial killers so if you haven't seen Voice or Sensory Couple, you can give them a try.

I think something is in her background that makes him seem like a viable option as a mate. Because besides being a cutie pie and having a great blond look, he's bad marriage material on paper.

Lol, if it is not murder, people are going to be very forgiving !

I can't give you enough hearts for this. When she said that she believes what she sees and she actually looked at the statements and realized that people were assuming and judging but not actually witnessing, I was so happy. Finally, some common sense. However, I do think there has to be something in her background that has made her the way she is. Hope to learn more about that as we go along.

There is suicide due to depression/mental illness. There is suicide due to not being able to face the ramifications of what one has done. A Korean actor got outed as a nasty piece of work in the Korean Me Too and he killed himself. There is suicide as a cultural/saving face expectation if you fail. I tend to think of some military cultures with this.

The first half is actually more solid than the second imho. There was a lot I liked in the 2nd half, but the overlong episodes and pacing wasn't as good. This is a character building show with smaller plot developments.

I really like the drama, and I would say the whole "main nurse thing" is the biggest flaw. It was a solid drama without going makjang. SYJ is such a good actress. She's been a lead a few times now, and I'm hoping this drama brings her more opportunities.

I have to hand it to the writer because I didn't see this bromance coming at all. I had no idea how they were going to deal with the reporter. I am so looking forward to this weeks episodes.

I think the drama flirted with us thinking he was some kind of sociopath but it is not that so whether he has a personality disorder or someone who just processes emotions different, we don't know. The flashback where he's on a date and doesn't know it leads us to believe he feels something for her but doesn't even realize it himself. He just doesn't process things like regular folks do. I think what is the interesting thing is pealing back the layers of who he is and what he actually feels for his wife and daughter.

I feel like there will end up being spoilers everywhere. I'd start after episode 8 and suffer through the last half with the rest of us.

He looks fantastic and I like the hair style as well.

The taxi driver is looking for LJG because he believes the rumors that the son might have helped the father and thus knows where his wife's body is buried.

I think they are talking about the movie make up artist who appears to be the daughter of the serial killer and I'm assuming the lead's sister.

So many romance dramas with questionable chemistry and then you have a couple with solid chemistry in a police procedural like CM.

I recommend starting at the halfway point because if you wait too long, you will end up being unable to avoid spoilers.

For k-drama, I think a fusion historical can be the way to go to start out.
