End justifies the means , if you are ready to pay the consequences!
I really like the character of Butcher shop lady Yoo jae yi and The det. Oh ji wa , both of them were passionate, dignified , brave and fierce from the get go! I even liked the CEO of JL construction, who got sucked in the mess!
Initially I was really annoyed with the Lee Dong shik and Han Joo wan , former was like creepy nut case while latter was an arrogant Mr Know-it-all! Only later when I saw there backstory I was able to digest it!
But still it doesn't change the fact that Dong shik did a lot of creepy overacting at the start , I don't know if it was to make the drama more suspenseful or it was to mask his intelligence and plans from the foes!
What I disliked -
Drama at the start is highly manipulative to the extent that it would give you a headache, I think the reason for it is that the plot was worth only 10 episodes , but they had to somehow make 6 extra ep , and the way they did that was to fill the initial ep with unnecessary confusion and fillers!
In the first half in every ep they would convince you that this guy is the villain , but you know that this not going to be the case and hence becomes a waste of time and you lose interest the next time they repeat the same thing in the very next ep! I think they forgot the difference bw misdirection and misinformation!
What I liked -
The second half was good everything was in the right place & pace, even the traps were understandable , the way they worked as the team was exciting,
If they had done a better work in the first half and didn't use those cheap tricks , I think it might have turned out to be the best suspense K- drama ever. Even as it is now it is surely in my top 5 suspense cop dramas.
