I thought this was going to one of those well-written, heartwarming dramas, until I reached the last quarter of the series. When the "Push-and-Pull-romance game" began, then a scenario of dreadful terminal disease came up and lastly everything was wrapped up in a "miraculous" conclusion.. I felt like I have wasted 16 hours, and I felt like I want them back.. Not to mention the female lead seemed too nervous and stiff when it comes to romantic scenes and kiss scenes.. Oh well, I'm sure she'll improve after a few more dramas.Was this review helpful to you?

Acting/Cast: 8 out of 10
Though it's true, that Yoon Shi Yoon could have done a bit better portraying Han Kang Ho. And if the writer made the twins with opposite personalities, then naturally their appearance could have been made a little different too. I.m.h.o, Han Kang Ho's physique was too clean with overacted-gangster-demeanor that I found myself fast-forwarding several scenes. It was a bit difficult for me to continue after the first few episodes because of his acting, but I'm glad I did continue.
Music: 10/10! The music/songs are beautiful! In my humble "commoner's" ear, they fit the scenes perfectly even amplified the emotions projected in some key scenes.
All in all, for those of you who like dramas about the law, this one is definitely recommended.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find ony other strong points - other than the OSTs - throughout this whole series. The story was predictable enough, probably because it was adapted from webtoon. And the casts were.. well, there was absolutely no chemistry between main casts there, especially, with Bona. If only I can rate each actor separately -_- I couldn't feel her chemistry whatsoeverl with Ha Seok Jin, and she seemed "out-of-place" most of the time, which I assumed, was due to her being new..? Oh wellz, I guess she'll grow more as an actress when given a chance.

To my eyes, as a mere kdrama fan, this drama was made with serious budget. The visual effects (CGI) were quite seamless and beautiful. I liked how smooth the switching takes between human-robot Nam Sin were, and I loved the action scenes! All-in-all, put this in your watch list if you haven't done so ^_^
Story:
Now, I'm a fan of sci-fi. I have seen the classic "AI" and "IRobot" and I loved them, so I would say that the story itself is not entirely original. However, I do find the screenwriting interesting - thumbs up for the screen writer - though I find many of the "decision" made by this cyborg can, in fact, only be made by human ^_^
Cast:
I love them! All main casts' acting was very good, I enjoyed seeing them portraying the characters. Kudos to Soe Kang Joon, as he successfully played two characters of opposite traits. At certain points, he managed to made me feel like punchin' the human Sin in the face *lol* That's how successful he was in playing the characters.
Music:
OSTs are beautiful and the scores fit the scenes well enough.
Rewatch value:
Well.. I never rewatch drama series.. ever.. so no comment on this one. hahaa..

As for the casts.. I have the most problem with seeing the two leads. I couldn't seem to feel the romance between the characters Sawatari Ichiko and Sakisaka Ryo. It's just.. not there.. But I loved all the other characters surrounding these two. I like how the writer made them grow and connected them to each other.
The music is okay - i guess.. I don't feel them out of place but it did not manage to make "the mark" in my brain the way some ost-s do.
I would probably not watch this drama again, but for first timers, I think it is worth the watch.
