Has the potential but failed to execute a clean flow of story

The genre is not my cup of tea but the storyline seems to be interesting but still fails to execute it in a cleaner way. The first half of the show is excellent however the way they solved the cases are too good to be true and mostly overwritten ideas. The plot twist is either cliche or another norm that I’ve seen from many other related categories of problem-solving cases.

Destinies and coincidences in dramas are weird. Both of the main character shares the same birthday who also linked them to the day of the bombing incident 20 years ago which also turned out that the person who surrendered himself was related to the other guy as one of the staff who took care at them in the orphanage.

I didn't even feel any kind of shock the moment they revealed that the sister/senior is alive. The same goes with the rest of the revelations such as the reason behind the bombing, dual side of each characters, keeping the main character alive despite the risky things they did, and many other things. I laughed at how idiot most villains in the drama are. They have the capacity to kill the protagonist but choose to play with their lives that bite them back sooner. The difference between killing without a sense of doubt a minor character compared to those who have a big role is far too distant. Also, the son of the Prime Minister is bad at acting; his laughs are cringe.

The feeling of being bored all throughout their operational scenes. I’m getting tired of the never-ending search for the mastermind of the incident from the past. The last few episodes are a major downfall. Too many loopholes, ordinary turn of events, and below average resolving of the problem. The ending is too bad. They’re too many issues not yet resolved or maybe they’re planning for a second season.

The biggest debate of the viewers is whether the show is a bromance or BL. To be honest, I came here expecting a BL but sadly they only give us a bromance. Every episode I am anticipating a shift to real romance but they wasted several chances of showcasing a perfect bloom to make the character face their real feelings to each other. Until I lost all my excitement and watched the show at 2x speed.

The extra-scenes on each epilogue are the only thing that I am somehow relieved to stay until the end. My favorite is the hilarious rock-paper-scissor game. I only conclude that Ichiro and Shiro are in the stage of realizing that they have feelings for each other yet no one will admit or initiate to talk about it first. They definitely acquired the chemistry of a couple and their little intimate scenes are enough to send me butterflies.

Thank goodness that the OST isn’t bad compared to the other elements of the show. The transitioning, editing, visual, and cinematography are great as well. Unfortunately, there’s too many errors that make it hard not to notice from the story itself which also puts the whole show in a disadvantage.
