I would say this show was bad, but that would mean it was intended to be good. I guess viewers were supposed to be educated as well as entertained, but they have to be interested first. Eight episodes of Investigator Alice was 8 episodes too many. K-pop stars are often used by the So Ko show biz industry to attract younger audiences to watch shows where the subject matter may be too complex or just plain boring. However, Kim Nam Joo's acting did nothing to make this show even boring (boring being a step up from the snoozefest it is). This show had no pulse, as she flatlined through every episode. The only take away from this train wreck is that Kim Nam Joo has set the bar pretty low for future K-pop stars to make the transition from singing to acting (or whatever it is she was doing). ***WARNING*** There is an Investigator Alice 2!
