The first half was seriously a masterclass in acting, writing, directing, subtlety, comedy, characterization.
Then it bacame flat, then frustrating, and then infuriating. And the final reaveal and confrontation was exceptionally bad too. Shame. I might rewatch the first half maybe some day. But definitely not the rest of it.
I have apparently seen Song Duk Ho recently in Hospital Playlist? Did he talk at all there?? His voice had me transfixed with every word here. Wow… It is so so deep, and I guess the fact that he barely moves his lips while speaking made it a lot more striking. His acting was very good too. Loved all of his scenes.
Shout out to the four other side characters which were fantastic. The mom, the grandma, the unnie, and the friend. The two other nice cops were great too.
I have seen YJG’s wardrobe mentioned a lot. I absolutely loved the tops and coats and sweaters. They felt very warm and cozy. But the pants. Yes, those were a crime.
And lastly, was Kim Myung Soo aka L supposed to be the male lead before YJG?? Why is he on the poster?? It is weird and doesn’t look like YJG at all.
I really liked this show.
The last half is not strong at all, but serviceable. The leads carried the show. Loved their dynamic and it was believable. My favorite parts was definitely the midnight dinner meet ups.
