A crime thriller done right
Lee Joon-gi acts his heart out as a psychotic man on the run who doubles as a loving family man. Moon Chae-won plays his wife, a detective in charge of catching his original identity. The first episode will get you hooked and there's twist after twist in this cinematographic experience. But the writing is cohesive without seeming forced and keeps you on the edge of your seat from the very start.
The natural chemistry between the leads has a lived-in feel to it, believably portraying a couple together for 14 years with none of the usual Kdrama mushiness. The OST has only 3 songs but has elements of intrigue as well as the tenderness of a loving family.
There is one twist that I thought was too coincidental, which I think we can forgive. This is the writer, Yoo Jung-hee's first long form Kdrama and I'm looking forward to her delivering more amazing stories!
