Good show, definitely worth watching!!!
The Story is kinda similar and also different from other shows I've watched in this genre. One of my favorite things about this drama are the Osts ... they are so beautiful yet heartbreaking, regardless of them being less used in the show (as much as I wanted), I just can't remove them from my playlist. Acting by Jang ki young was good as I felt bad for him regardless of him being a assasin, he did well as an antagonist.Chemistry of both actors, I think was pretty decent too. One thing I would complain about is the ML & FL onscreen time is less to what I would've liked. Being assasin ML had a rough life and I wanted him to have little bit of more happiness and affection.Was this review helpful to you?
Perfect ACTING Beautiful MUSIC
So from the start to the end was it awesome. This drama is one of the only dramas where you can see a strict storyline here’s not something like ,“fanservice“. You can say, you are watching the whole life from the male lead.... and the life from the male lead is overwhelming. I was only sad and hated it a bit at the end. I wished it had a longer ending because the whole story built to the ending. It all ended rapidly and fast and I wished I could had seen more of it.To the acting and cast.... are you people even real? The male lead acts his role perfectly, you could see every emotion he had to express in his eyes. I can’t believe how he can have a serious expression but still makes his emotions visible. As for the female lead... it’s the same they can express perfectly, what the character feels.
The music was beautiful and was always played when something overwhelmed happened.. the only thing is that i wished it gave one more song for a third emotion. Because it gives always one song for sad scenes and one for emotional. So yes.
I am not the one who watches dramas again after I finished them. But I would watch this again, there are so many scenes that are so emotional that you want to see them again. I want to see the people reacting again to the things that are about to happen.
Overall a 9.5 because this drama was awesome.

Acting: The main cast did a stellar job. (Bias note: I totally loved Jang Ki Yong's dark tormented protrayal of thug Lee Gwang Il in 'My Mister', so I wasn't disappointed by his performance here whatsoever.)
Music: Where can I buy this OST!? I NEED it. One of the best soundtracks I've ever heard in a drama.
Rewatch Value: I rarely rewatch dark tragic dramas that don't have a happy endings (my gentle heart can't handle them). But I might make an exception for this someday in the future.
Overall: Worth watching if you're looking for a great thriller drama, and not expecting a romance.

First of all, the drama is great. The lowkey romance, the love- hate (not really love hate but kind of) relationship between seul gi and hyun jin ,the coldness of the male lead, the mysterious deaths, the dealer and more.However, there are parts that is hard to understand. There are some parts where the action is just--- not enough. They should have given nana more action and more badass side. But yeah, over all it's great. I was about to drop it in the near end but i was somehow curious about it.
The end, it was ughh, why?! I was expecting something like a blossoming love but-- ughhh. It was a sad ending and i feel sorry for seulgi. And the arson victim being "kind" in the end is a little unrealistic, but yeah alright he had some conscience, acceptable. And the children.... This drama will surely make you cry.
The acting, nana, is so great. The same goes with the rest of the cast (idk the names) They gave justice to their characters.
I don't really give much attention to the music but i guess it's good HAHAHA.
But rewatching it is not a great option for me. Maybe when I feel like watching it again. HAHAHA

This drama was undoubtedly amazing. Even more the fact that it was only 12 episodes long. It didn't have any romance (even though it was obvious the male leads liked each other) but a lot of childhood common ground, and I liked it that way. So it focused more on the plot of the drama than any romance. I'm also a sucker for strong female leads.. This was absolutely brilliant.I cried with Do Hyun Jin at the end when Soo Hyun died.. I was honestly so sad... But this was the most fantastic thriller drama I've ever watched in my life.
I'd recommend it 100% but if you like romantic cliche dramas and not bloody action or murder.. I'd recommend not to watch..

What a Thrill.
This is my first Review, and well, I recently just finished this Show and what can I say?The show is fantastic, from episode 1 you are instantly thrown into a dark gritty action packed series that has you on the edge of your seat from First To Last Episode.
This show has one of the most unique stories, I think I've ever watched. You will end up caring about the vast majority of the characters in the show by the end of it.
It's a really good watch and can be completed in a weekend, so if you need something to keep you on the edge of your seat, I fully recommend this series.

CAST/ACTING: Jang Ki Yong was just beyond amazing, the way he portrayed a complex character like Soo Hyeon. The way he portrayed most of the characters emotions through his eyes. It spoke to me. Nana definitely surprised me, never knew how great of an actress she is. The other actors did justice to their characters. Definitely a well cast drama.
OST: I personally really liked the soundtrack. They fit in well with the ambience of the drama.
REWATCH: I don't really re-watch dramas, but there are definitely some scenes that i would watch again.
SUBTLE SPOILER: I'm glad that all the people that needed to be punished, got a befitting ending. It was right to end this drama like the way it did. Bittersweet, but i think sometimes it's good to end a drama like this. It can't always be rainbows and unicorns.
I really want to see Jang Ki Yong and Nana in another drama together, more precise a romance one.
P.S. Grey (the dog) is such a beautiful dog!!

It was an emotional rollercoaster. There was a small hint of a little romance, but not as a huge theme. What I did love was how relationships were made, broken, and betrayed.
It's not THAT violent and almost everything is censored. The finale had me quite literally shaking out of nervousness and I cried for 20 minutes afterward. I would recommend this for everyone, even if mysteries aren't your forté. It's worth it.

"अच्छी तरह से किया फिल्माया , कलाकारों और चालक दल" को मेरी तरफ से वाहवाही।
मुझे ये कहानी बहुत अच्छी लगी | मतलब यह नाटक कमाल का है । आपको इसको जरूर देखना चाहिए |
किम सू ह्यून एक पशु चिकित्सक और एक पेशेवर हत्यारे के किरदार को बखूबी से निभाया है | मुख्य महिला पात्र का किरदार कमजोर है,
यह मेरी व्यक्तिगत राय है ~ इसका कहानी या किसी देश से कोई लेना-देना नहीं है
पुलिस कभी भी किसी भी देश में स्ट्रांग पॉइंट क्यू नहीं रखती हमेशा टॉप मैनेजमेंट की कटपुतली की तरह दर्शया जाता है जो की सही भी है |
पोलिटिकल और पैसे वाले नाचते है असल में भी |
After so long, the story can touch your heart, "Well done filmed, cast and crew" applause.
I liked this story very much. This play is awesome. You must watch it,
Kim Soo Hyun has played the role of a vet and a professional killer perfectly. The character of the main female character is weak,
This is my personal opinion ~ It has nothing to do with the story or any country
the police never holds strong point i don't know why? in any country it is always shown as a puppet of the top management which is also right. Political and money people dance actually.

Wow. This show was amazing, it's right up my alley for a shows I'd like to watch in the future. Firstoff when I read the synopsis about a killer turned vet and a detective who is trying to capture a serial killer to where their relationship builds from having known eachother in the past and then meeting again, I was very intriqued to watch it and my god am I glad I watched it. I've put this drama off for about 2-3 weeks now and I thought I would watch it.With the male lead Soo Hyun I loved his character, the actor Jang Ki Yong who played did an amazing job doing the role. Jang Ki Yong is probably one of the actors to depict characters who have a dark side to them, his facial expressions work magic on the on screen and his psycotic smile he gives off makes him perfect for these kind of roles. Soo Hyun's character was quite pitiful in this show though, he was only born to donate his bone marrow and didn't even get named and got thrown away to some russian killer to be taken care of. To be honest, killing people is always bad but I couldn't help but support him throughout the show and be exited to see what he's going to do next. His relationship with Seul Gi is quite ill fated in the fact that Pavel killed her grandfather and then Soo Hyun ends up looking after her in which she realises who he is and forgives him because she knows he's a good person at heart. I can understand why he only confided in animals and that was because they can't really betray you and hurt you compared to humans who follow human nature. His whole goal to finding out his past and then saving the children was quite pitiful to watch at times because he couldv'e just lived a normal life but they mattered more to him than anything else untill he got attached to Hyun Jin and Seul Gi.
Hyun Jin's character was also a pretty good character. She didn't really do much for me compared to Soo Hyun but I liked how she wished it wasn't Soo Hyun who was the serial killer because she had hope that he was the same kid who she knew as a child. Her relationship with Soo Hyun was ill fated because she was the person trying to capture the serial killer and it just turned out to be Soo Hyun, I did like thier interactions but I'm glad there was no romantic actions involved because it would of been a lot more messier than it allready was for them. I could tell that they both had some sort of feelings for eachother due to thier actions throughout the show.
The OST was standard but what stood out was the instrumentals that added a felling of tension and axienty to some scenes. Out of all the shows I've watched this show might be out 3 shows in which gave me a churning feeling in my stomach and a fast heartbeat and I don't know fully why but some of teh reason would go the atmosphere that this show created.
If your looking for an action, thriller show that has an emphasis on the relationship on 2 sides of the same coin, Soo Hyun on one and Hyun Jin on the other and how see how thier story pits them against eachother pyschologically even though they like eachother I highly reccomend this show.
I will most definetly rewatch this show one day as it's a short show in which was a great watch and I loved the main leads especially Jang Ki Yong and NaNa.

If only the plot was better...
I had dropped it halfway when the drama was first released. I just recently picked it up and binged the whole thing and, honestly speaking, I don't regret dropping it in the first place.For new actors, their acting was good and they played their roles well. I especially like the OST, they fits the theme so well. But those are the only good points of this drama.
Up until episode 5, everything was great but then the plot just developed in a strange direction that I could not wrap my head around it. New names kept popping up unnecessarily and various scenarios laid out in front me that I almost lost track of the main problem. AND!!!! They tried to end everything that had happened in the last 11 episodes in the last half of episode 12?!?!?!?! A lot of plot holes and loose ends that my mind just went "???????"
Give it a try but don't keep your hopes up.
