P.S. As for Dunk, specifically, I meant his character is a far cry from any of his other characters. And he's killing it. 😆

Actually, I was mostly referring to their characters instead of their acting abilities. 😅 I.E., Bison and Style completely have Kant and Fadel "begging for more!" LMFAO!

WOW! I kind of had a feeling about the BOTH of them. The series is trying so hard to be mysterious that it's failing in the basics. Thanks! I had thought about dropping it, but now I'll stay for the conclusion.

Absolutely!

Really! Interesting. In the book, who's the killer besides the pharmacist? The nurse?

As I ponder "what's missing" in this series, one thing that comes to mind is "bad writing!" IDK if it's the bad dialogue or bad translation into English, but there is something definitely missing. For example, why would Thiu, a supposedly smart (albeit naive) detective trust Dr. Kan to be honest with him? They don't even know each like that. They've just met AND Thiu is suspicious of Dr. Kan. That's an example of either poor writing or poor translation.

Even though I have mixed feelings about this series -- I still think something is missing. LOL But to be honest, Khaotung and Dunk's characters (especially Dunk, IMO) are rocking their respective seduction routines (both in their own ways). First and Joong's characters NEVER stood a chance! Yeah! LMFAO!

Agreed. Dunk seems to have really improved with this series, For once, he's NOT playing some dimwitted airhead. IDK, I just wish at least once in the Dunk/Joong ship, that Dunk is allowed to be the dominant character (and I don't just mean the seme/uke stuff).

Agreed! Something is missing...

From a plot perspective, this ep. was MUCH better than previous eps. Now, IMO, it's deserving of a rating above. 8.0.

Good points!

😒 You do have a point about the rizz, etc. But I think that it is set up for Thiu be initially outwitted by everyone there, as he is the new guy.

Good question. Well Thiu is presented as a detective captain from a a bid city back in a small town. But, in the first three eps., he's not exactly behaving like a detective, allowing easy clues, cues and suspicions get by him. Then he's easily swayed by the flirtations of Dr. Kan, whom he doesn't really know and has suspicions. In other words, everyone else in this series seem to be way ahead of Capt. Thiu.

This series is ok. But, there's something missing and I can't figure out what it is???? Maybe if this series didn't make Captain Thiu seem to be so "inept" it would probably flow a little bit better. IDK Just something's missing.

Wow. Thanks for the info.

When you say the same universe, are the novels somehow linked? I actually liked MOD.

This series is obviously a knock off to Manner of Death. I guess we'll have to wait and see if it's better or worse. Right now, it's hard to tell. But, I do know it will be difficult to do another bait-and-switch like MOD did. We're already hip to the probability that it isn't Dr. Kan. So, I guess the next best suspect is the Director. Hmmm?

Not so! Don't beat yourself up. I started watching it, dropped it, and then came back for the final ep. to see if it had improved. It did NOT. IMO, whether anyone watched this series for the tropes and stereotypes, the pretty faces of the MLs, actually liked this series and thought it was good, or just because it was available (something to watch), this series was bad! You said it right the first time. LMFAO!!!

I dropped this series way back. Thank goodness that I did! I watched the latest ep. to see if it had improved any, it did not! I guess I will drop it again and wait to maybe binge it later, maybe. But, this is one of the worst series I've ever watched and that is saying a great deal.
