The emergency medical kit for a scratch, sending someone to the hospital after they faint in the rain and then you watch other shows or the same show and a serious medical issues arises and all of a sudden delay, ignore because clearly it's not as life or death as a minor scratch on the knee or fainting in the rain.
Awful. The leads have no chemistry... you can't play music and use slow motion to cover for this. Are they dating other people in real life? Is this just a paycheck they didn't really want to be involved in?
If you're obsessed with the idea of cheating, sure you might be able to overlook this but I went in to it for Puff Guo and now I'm out after 1 episode.
I can't see the romance. She looks 12 years old. He looks 22. I can't imagine how awkward some of these scenes must have been for the lead actor but from his actor page it seems like it's his first big break... so you gotta do what you gotta do to make it as an actor I guess.
I don't think it's as bad as other people here in the comments but the show is only half -way through and what exactly are they going to do for the remaining 8 episodes? It feels like this show should have been 10-12 episodes. Or if not 10-12 episodes then maybe they should have been solving a legal case every 1-2 episodes along with the circumstances of their death in the background being solved over the 16 episodes.
The plot is pretty weak because stuff keeps flipping and judging from the preview of next week, more of the same but the cast is really strong and the jokes are good.
I feel like comedies can get away with a weak plot if they are funny enough and this one is really funny.
Awful. The writers/directors topped it all off with a flashback involving a character with a blurred face, the memory involve many characters and the rest of them didn't have their faces blurred. I mean what? This was way worse than Kill it.
I agree with others saying the writing/directing was a bit weak and muddled but they were consistent start to finish and there were no cop-outs. The ending is clear on who lives and who dies. I think Cruel City is the best comparison here. The ending is clearer but Cruel City maintained its complex story better. I really hope Nana gets more roles, I really like her.
It's just such a disappointment. It started so well but the last 4-5 episodes they've basically stripped the plot of all its complexity and then added one twist for shock value (check other people's spoilers or watch it yourself) that I don't even really see as a twist... beyond the fact this type of stuff isn't as common in Korean TV.
It's no longer a whodunit. It's no longer a mystery or thriller because you can't strip away all the complexity and then bring it back for your last 2 episodes & week of airing.
It's not a bad show but it's average with that one shock-value twist.
I'm reminded of why soaps are such a tough watch. Everyone in them sucks. The only likable character is the daughter of the So family.
Edit: I finished it. Overall it's not as bad as some soap operas but I felt the mothers got to a point where they weren't redeemable in my eyes despite the show trying to have them reconcile with their families.
I'm so confused after episode 5. There are way too many names for me to remember and get names with faces in check.…
Yeah what you've posted makes the most sense. The old man created a clone of himself and it's the main character. He also created a clone of his daughter a few years later for some reason.
It makes sense. I guess now all we're waiting on is why that man & woman are getting him to do a treasure trail of murder for him to get his past & memories back. And why that old man also cloned his daughter(?).
Other than that seems straightforward. He needs to kill to learn his past. The detective is tugging at his heartstrings and morality and will convince him to stop killing.
Skipped the first 30 minutes, the blue eyes, the terrible acting in English despite being in Russia. Asian dramas need to avoid anything outside their country (Korea in Korea, China in China), they're awful at anything outside.
But it gets much better after that first half of the first episode.

Not sure how this has a happy ending though.
