Loosely Based Off Of The US Show

I watched Criminal Minds when it first aired in 2005. I didn't miss not one episode. When they played the last season in 2018 I was kind of crushed because that was my go-to show. It was the only show I watched for years.

When I saw a Korean version-with some fighting in it-I had to see for myself if it's something I could watch and yes! All of the episodes that were shown were loosely based off the American version. The only difference was that some of the episodes carried over which was nice.

The downside was that some of the characters that were portrayed from the American version were weak. Especially the doctor who was suppose to portray Dr. Spencer Reid, and the computer genius that portrayed Penelope Garcia was even worse. Nobody can compare these characters and the Korean version tried and failed miserably. I only liked Lee Joon Gi/Kim Hyun Joon and Son Hyun Joo/Kang Gi Hyung.

The American version lasted about 13 years....the Korean version only 20 episodes. I wonder if they will have a second season. I will be game if they do.
