This drama had a compelling start, and one strong aspect it had was its well-executed action scenes. However, I feel that as the story continued to develop, it became convoluted with the introduction of additional characters and the amount of information that needed to be processed. I also noticed that nearly every episode had a misleading ending. For example, Episode 5 (spoilers ahead) ended with footage of Ji-hyuk shooting Soo-yeon, and Episode 6 (spoilers ahead) ended with Je-yi seemingly betraying Ji-hyuk. This pattern felt repetitive, and I think it stripped away the anticipation and suspense for me since I could assume that it was merely a false lead.

Nevertheless, although I feel a little disappointed by the writing's direction and the last episodes, I still think that this drama was a fairly enjoyable watch, especially for Namgoong Min and his acting. Without a doubt, he gave an impressive performance as Han Ji-hyuk.

The plot was good at the beginning it just kept getting less interesting and was like unplanned for example :
1) They exaggerated the role of Healers and then made it like seem unuseful they wanted to send a message that what you get you lose something in return but it wasn't a reason for the progress of this twist

2) They made it clear that the mother could only save espers but not incurable disease so that was the reason she didn't save the twins but made it hard to achieve it with her daughter when she is a healer too and the Qis are espers so that mean they can be saved but then the plot became unplanned to the point. That made the plot messed up as if the screen writer made two plots and then made a mistake mixing them together so the reasons and results became invain at the last episodes .
3) QT character wasn't Really planned well , I'm not talking about the actress she made me feel every single emotion but, I'm talking about the writer
4) the protector and healers relationship was too plain just like that of the healer-espers it was just giving briefs of the two relationships without clearing anything
5) There are some points which were neglected like: * the protection ring that saved her when she saved QT first time why can't she save QT with the help of that ring ? * if the healers , espers and protectors can't use their powers why to be granted with them from the beginning ? * why is it only QT to suffer from losing her life but not her brother too ?
6) They only focused on the progress of their romance but not the main plot which made it messed up at the end That's why I gave it 5 only for the sake of actors who expressed their roles very well

Studio Music Hall is a high-quality music talk show created by Mystic Story and SKT Flo. So far, legendary musicians such as Exo Chen, Yoon Jong-shin, Kim Hyun-chul, Brown Eyed Girls, and Sun Woo Jung-ah have attracted attention for their quality live stage and in-depth music talk. Concept of the show is really good as it highlights the guest and what an artist they are. By far the best music talk show I've watched until now. It tells a lot about musician as an individual and as an artist. Hosts are also amazing with lots of musical background, not to mention hilarious Hee Chul.

Not as good as it was

back in 2016 the show was on at like 11pm - this is when the best episodes came out, I still watch those reruns.

The show was not getting good ratings at first and JTBC moved it to a later timeslot, which made the members a bit more desperate to keep the show alive, and it allowed them to talk more shit to the guests which became like the identity of the show for about a year.

as it got popular, JTBC moved it back to around 9pm in 2017 or so. They seemed to lose their identity for a while, trying to keep their edge while attracting a larger audience but then the last PD who founded the show, Choi Chang Soo left in 2018, thats when their focus really changed, I mean they are literally making a kids song these days. Now its just a regular variety show - the only distinguishing factor is informal speech

I still watch everything with Heechul & LSG but KB has lost its magic for a while. If I only considered episodes 1-130, this show would get a clean 10/10.

Trite plot, boring developments, predictable outcomes. I started watching months ago, and as much as I somehow managed to plod along to the end of episode fifteen- well, I cannot bring myself to watch the final one; it feels like a waste of time (I only got through the fifteenth episode because I just have no notion of doing things by halves... but this one is proving to be quite the hard task to carry through).

Park Min Young seems to be stuck in the same role over and over again, and this whole set-up of the annoying to-be-caring boss who orders her around as she talks back at any given chance has gotten old quite some time ago if you ask me. I find it irritating and see it as an attempt at following in "What's Wrong With Secretary Kim?"'s steps in order to get the same success as a result but it just doesn't make the cut; as silly as that was as well- it was supposed to be perceived as that because it was pure comedy while this one is not funny nor does it come off as purposely silly but rather- ridiculous.

I watched it recently and I have to say it's among the most overrated dramas I've watched: characters are not very smart and the answers to the mysteries are revealed to the audience way ahead, so even if you didn't guess yourself you feel like you are watching two morons most of the time, the final episodes are the worst, I had to skip like half an hour of people crying over some stupid shit. It's not bad overall, but the 9/10 vote I've seen everywhere online is a joke. If you like actual thriller crime dramas I'd say drop it, 'cause it's mainly focused on the lead couple and their dynamic not so much on mystery/suspense and detective work

TL;DR Bit too much of a soap opera for me, way too over dramatic, not dark enough. A romance show disguised as a thriller. If you want actual murder mystery thriller series watch Beyond Evil instead

And another dumb storyline goes like this: rich guy, poor girl, both have bodies of 12 year old boys and the girl is also portrayed as a dingbat.
She bumps into a stranger with her moped and let's a complete stranger live with her. She doesn't even know his name, or if he is a rapist, child pedophile or murderer. He is controlling and tries to recreate scenes from what's wrong with secretary Kim. He sets her apartment on fire, floods it and doesn't fix anything. When he floods her apartment, instead of freaking out and getting mad about the damage and money she will have to pay tobrepair the damage, she puts headphones on him to calm his fear of water.

I couldn't get past episode 3. This is the stupidest written show. Pass, you won't miss anything.

I haven't watched the whole series yet, but I do not want to anyway. The acting is soooo bad and the plot is just...something. Absolutely boring and cliche. Want better dramas from the Chinese industry. It's the 21st century guys, wake up. Seriously we don't have the patience for people to have childish behaviour. I am usually optimistic but I just can't deal with this drama.

Like hundreds of people, I agree that the rating on Viki & MDL for this drama is bias of the actors. It's only popular because famous Chinese actors are starting in it. It doesn't deserve its rating. We have to change how we perceive our views. This is unfair to dramas which are actually worth watching but are not recognised for their quality.

Just watching the first five episodes I could take more in. I found myself frequently skipping unnecessary parts. People who are actually sane and value their time, stay away from this drama. They is no point in wasting your precious brain cells watching this. Either find something else to do or watch a drama with watching.
