A totally underrated drama which can take you by surprise

Having recently watched as many thrillers as possible, I was searching for a drama to match the caliber of all those 'near-perfect' thrillers of the k-drama world. I stumbled upon this drama, mistaking it to be a rom-com after looking at the cast. I didn't read the summary either, but I swear I never regretted my choice. (That's why I'm making my first review for this drama)

This isn't your regular sageuk drama or some nasty revenge thriller but is an excellent work that is a combo of
1. An outstanding storyline that isn't too easy or overwhelming either
2. A well-balanced pace of the story
3. A good narration/ the way the story unfolds ( gave me the feeling of reading a particular Dan Brown bestseller)
4. Good cast who bring out the essence of the character they portray
5. A cascade of emotions that aren't overly dramatic but something that all viewers would bond with. (You'll love the good ones with all your heart and hate the bad ones pouring all your anger as if it all was happening in your own life)

furthermore,
- I feel like this drama would suit an audience of all ages above 15 since there's no overload of sweetness or bitterness or manic action.
- 26 episodes (52 half episodes)were the best pace this drama could travel on, making all those moments and struggles match the pace of reality

Watching this drama was worth my time, and I don't think it'll disappoint future viewers either.
9I also have a feeling that even k-drama haters wouldn't regret watching it. )
