Supporting Characters > Leads (minor spoilers)

Story: The drama was executed spectacularly in this series, with great choice of cases. Sometimes, the transitions between cases were smooth and other times, there were bumps in the road so to speak. The comedic elements most of the time were a complete flop (except for maybe Prosecutor Jeong practicing his interrogation; I almost LOLed really hard!). For the amount of themes covered in the series, I felt that it was not terribly confusing (maybe a little bit though or perhaps just some loose ends).

Acting: The ML chemistry was ok... was certainly not the worst, but definitely wasn't the best either. Personally, I liked the chemistry between Hong Joo and Officer Han, so I got a little SLS. But the supporting cast was superb and really carried the story!

Music: The dramatic music was spot on, but some of the romantic music was overplayed in the series, especially Suzy's "I Love You, Boy" (I like the song. It was just overused).

Overall, I would recommend this series to anyone that likes law/detective-like drama that can withstand awkward comedic scenes.
