Twisty Light On Series

Among all the Light On Series' I've watched, this is my favourite. It's my fav because I like crime shows with a twist and this is it. For the other LOS's, most of the time, the murderer is already known from the start and the entire 12 episodes are more of a cat and mouse game between the cops and the criminals (albeit, still very well done).

The cast list caught my eye and indeed, they performed. Expect no less from Zhu Yawen, Liu Yi Jun and Geng Le. I've not watched any of Jin Chen's dramas and I like her in this show too! She starts off as this annoying teen but you see her morph and change as the twists unravel themselves. There's also a sweet little love story which is important for the decisions made in the show. Overall very touching.

I would say the twists are well-thought out. Whatever questions I had were answered towards the last few episodes.

My complaints for this show would be just 2 things;
- the main plot was a little draggy ie. the kidnapping could have been cut short.
- confusion over which is the main plot.
There were 2 sub-plots I identified that were not expanded on enough. In fact one of the sub-plots felt more like the main plot.
