Overall- 10/10

Wow, what a drama. I enjoyed watching it so much that I finished the series within a day and a half. Everything about it was perfect. It's only the third drama I've watched and it's my favorite at the moment. Now what made this drama so good was the combination of an intriguing story, great cast, and thrilling music. Literally a masterpiece.

Story- 10/10

The supernatural theme of the realistic dreams the three main characters share adds interest to the overall- frankly, this is the most important aspect of the story that ties everything in. As for the genres, I think the "law" part is the most evident as that is what the story is about. One little thing I was wondering was of the romance being almost a separate plot point.

Characters- 10/10

Now the characters were very good. At first, I thought of Hong Joo to be meh, but I got used to her. As for Jae Chan, he was charming. The incompetent prosecutor on the outside but hard-working when you dig deeper. As for the side characters, they served their job well.

Acting/Cast- 10/10

There isn't too much to say about this, you have Lee Jong Suk as your male lead, and I thought Suzy was really good at portraying Hong Ju as a character who is depressed at times and cheerful at another. As for the other characters, Lee Sang Yeob did excellently at being the antagonist of the series. Wow, I hated this character so much, he was such a wicked guy.

Music- 10/10

Soundtracks were really good. The one I liked the most was of the violins going to high notes and back down during the most suspenseful moments. It really added to the thrill of the moment, which always gave me chills down my spine. Suzy's track, "I Love You Boy". was very lovable and soothing to hear.

Enjoyment- 10/10

Every second of this drama was amazing. There was a great balance of thrill and comedy in the plot. I finished this drama too fast.

Rewatch value- 10/10

I would rewatch this series anytime. It was that good. I first need to watch other dramas.
