Amazing Acting and Perfect Plot
I hope that this drama will be valued by many, because it is an example of perfect team work of all the crew.
The plot is well though through and always leaves you wondering what's coming next. I haven't seen such a tense and dramatic story for quite a while. I just couldn't stop myself from starting the next episode right after finishing the previous one. And in the end, though the ending was balanced and good, I wished for more. The story is well written, all main characters have their own histories, and it is put in such a way that you don't get bored, but somehow being drawn in their lives until the point when you sympathise with each of them.
The main theme is demanding, but also so understandable to anyone. That helplessness that you feel, when someone with more power, money, connections gets the best in life and tramples over less fortunate ones. Through the prism of personal tragedies of the main heroes it didn't seem pompous or artificial, but very human and heart-breaking sometimes.
The cast is awesome. Kim Bum proved once again his talents, and the chemistry they have with Ryu Hye Young is superb. I so wished to see more hints that they stay together in the end, but the slight mist of unspoken words didn't make it less good. There is enough cute scenes, in which you see the real emotions and can guess all the rest. Anyway this romantic tint was a perfect find, adding even more human touch to the show. I often miss this in investigative dramas. What is also important each character undergoes changes, but never steps out from the character itself. I saw many shows, where main character who in the beginning was a certain type suddenly changes into something else, when his deeds and behaviour become inconsistent as if it is a completely different human being. Good script in this drama and awesome acting never gives you this kind of dissapointment.
Music is very good. I've added a few new songs to my playlists. Every song is in its place highlighting the atmosphere and so memorable, that I know if I hear it anywhere else the scenes from the show will float before my eyes.
I recommend the show to all who like tense mind-twisting mysteries, but it would be also good for those who like criminal shows focused on human stories, which are being brough before the law.
