My Review:

I watched this k-drama as I always enjoyed crime and mystery series. It gives me a breather when I’m getting tired of sometimes nonsensical romcoms. I’m glad I tried to check this out because it was an enjoyable and thrilling experience to view this series.

(1) Jung Jae Young as Baek Bum is phenomenal in his role. I love it when his character says “Don’t write novels” when some characters are interpreting the findings of the crime scenes even before all facts are in. His anti-social personality grows in you and even endearing to watch.

(2) Jung Yoo Mi as Eun Sol and together with the rest of the supporting casts made this k-drama as a whole entertaining to watch. It feels like CSI South Korean style.

(3) I like that the writers and director put a lot of effort to make the science of autopsies more realistic.

(4) I like the cases presented and the pace of this k-drama is just enough that there’s no time to be bored.

What I do Not Like About this K-Drama?

All in all there’s really nothing much I can say against this k-drama. As a whole, it was well produced.

Would I recommend this K-Drama? Yes
