I really like American crime procedurals (law and order, criminal minds, csi, castle, bones, etc) but I haven't watched much in that genre in k-dramas (I'm not sure procedurals exist in the same fashion given how short kdramas are?).
I'm looking for something similar in kdramas, I just have a couple caveats:
1. no major character death
2. romantic subplot (or enough crumbs for my shippy heart)
3. I want to avoid the good genius dude up against the bad genius dude cat and mouse (I don't mind one big bad but it always seems to be the lone genius guy fighting the other lone genius guy and any female characters are just there to get kidnaped or threatened. The female lead in Flower of Evil has now ruined me for less awesome female leads)
