A beautiful k-drama despite budget constraints
I absolutely loved this bl! For me this is a contender for best BL of 2026 going toe to toe with Payback.
The plot with star crossed lover potential of a victim in love with the murderer's son was intriguing enough and from the first episode the characters and actors truly capture your attention with their realistic, great acting and a well written plot. The chemistry is palpable between our main leads and they give you enough clues that has you invested in wanting to see the resolution of the murder cases as well as also see the main leads get together.
It is a unique and mature k-bl, which I completely adore. We have two adults who are working in the real world and they have a lot of trauma to unpack, but both orbit each other and can't stay away. Honestly if you want good acting, with great plot and the feel of k-drama watch this! Though each episode had short run time, it was packed and paced so well and with short episodes and run time, they still manage to capture your attention and makes you attached. I am genuinely sad it's finished, I wish we had 6 episodes more!
The characters are amazing, the actors are excellent and overall if you love crime dramas and you love bl, this is the one for you! It gave me mainstream k-drama level of quality and that I enjoyed. Only hiccup was the ending. It is a happy ending so that is not to worry, but it is rushed and I get the feeling that is due to lack of budget as I think they had no idea that this drama was going to blow up in popularity. Still, the rushed ending wasn't enough for me to dock points, I still loved it! Definitely a must watch BL of the year. I hope we get a special episode or season 2. Fantastic acting, intriguing plot and amazing chemistry. Definitely watch it.
