I think OCN does a pretty good job nowadays with their original dramas. They are original indeed, and quite delightful to watch if you got a little bit sick of other networks romcom/melodrama-flood and want to try something different. Dr. Frost is just like that.
... STORY ....................................................................................
The story has a nice flow, and it was enough for 10 episodes. Not too slow, not too fast, just enough.
I liked the beginning better, with the new episode - new case scheme, maybe because when they starting to turn into the "main" storyline, it became obvious to me soon who is the culprit, and i lost the greater part of my interest. The only question which made me get through 'til the end is the "Why?" but the answer was pretty good and entertaining, so i wasn't dissapointed at all.
I enjoyed the psychological cases, found the episodes really informative, and i wished they put some more of the unique cases into the last few episodes instead of stucking only with the main plot.
I won't lie, i did expect a bit of romance between the leads in the beginning, but somehow during the episodes i accepted that, romance just not fit in there and didn't even miss it anyomore.
... ACTING/CAST .........................................................................
Almost everybody in the main cast was a new face to me, new imression.
I liked Song Chang Eui as Frost, he did a good job with his so-no-emotion character, but i can't say that his acting was extraordinary. Sometimes he just can't convince me about Frost's coldness and emotionless.
Besides, the main actress, Jung Eun Chae was one of my favourites, i will definitely look forward for her next works, because she and her skills were really enjoyable to watching.
I also really liked Choi Jung Woo (our favourite Secretary Kim from Masters Sun :D), and Sung Ji Ru as Detective Nam, they are never dissapointing me with their acting.
... MUSIC ....................................................................................
Nothing really memorable. I liked the title melody, tho, it suits well for the drama.
... OVERALL ................................................................................
Don't expect too much from this drama, and you won't be dissapointed. Dr Frost is a nice drama for those rainy sunday afternoons, when you just want to chillin' a little bit with a nice tea. Nothing too exciting, nothing sappy from romance (nothing at all, really), but really informative and well-done, with nice and loveable cast.
