Visibly well crafted.
Beautiful!! This is the first or maybe a very rare occurrence that I gave a drama such a high rating... TRULY WORTH THE WATCH... Nice production, music, casting, direction, screenplay and that's how we get this product... I will not put this on the levels of some really well-crafted K-dramas I watched BUT... BUT, it is right there somewhere.Towards the end half baked but, when the real REAPER shows up the change in his demeanor and expression... Wow, just wow... The main detective of this story as well.. Great job ???

Wow ...just wow . We just found the new addition to worst dramas ever list!!!
Nobody: Bring me actors who look like beautiful expression-less models with unreal story and dialogue lines.Beyond Prescriptions(drama crew) : Hold my beer!!
We just found the new addition to worst dramas ever list!!!
How can sm1 create such tasteless, senseless, clueless and plotless drama... All at the same time, in the same drama.
This drama is worth a watch but, for all the wrong reasons.
I really have nothing more2say but the stipulation for posting a review seems2b 500 words.. which seems like a joke bcz then, that's not a review, it is called an essay!! I hope this webpage learns the difference some day.

Amazing start with a generic ending.. Good story and worth a watch nonetheless.
A story of a sly king, cunning & manipulative woman for a potential queen, an obsessed whore for a Queen Dowager and an innocent idiot gold digger for a consort who got used by the king in name of love.The whole drama could have been even much more better if more depth were given to some of the side characters.
I was also astounded to se a character such as councilor Park who is a thinker, believer, intellectual, fool, loyal, cheater, revolutionary custom-follower and an idiot all at the very same time.
All these main characters put in cast with a beautiful background music and good camera work like any good vue does make real like asshole manipulators look good.
The whole story is a one-sided view and not much substance towards the end.
BUT... A VERY BIG BUT, good production quality, amazing story in the start.. Nice cinematography and direction skills are reflected in the drama.

A nice one-time watch drama with insight about Chinese prosecutors (obviously glamorised version)
A nice drama, very insightful, good enough to get a superficial idea of how the hand of law & prosecution works in China. Worth one-time watch, enjoyable.But, BUT.... Just like any other Chinese drama, the characters are a bit stiff and one-tracked fr sm reason.
The Male lead is not that great but OK, His acting skills r a bit sub-par.
I like the female lead (actually at first I thot I might not lyk her but ended up liking her a lot anyways).
THE SECOND FEMALE LEAD IS IRRITATING AS HELL SPECIALLY TO THE NICEST GUY IN THE DRAMA.. She should be thankful to the lord that she wasn't my sister or gf or any woman within 10mile radius. Every dialogue of her makes me smack her so bad in the back of her head that her stupid brain would fall right Outta her ugly head.
Rest of the drama, worth watching.

Ironic title yet wortha watch
This drama faces the same problem as any other Chinese drama specially the ones that involves government.Atleast for this drama, I found this drama very ironic because the title in English is "The Truth" whereas I see no truth in glossing over the government and tooting their horn just for the sake of it causes the Production team to show a distorted truth.
Rest production, dialogue and flow are good hence, worth one watch
Felt sad when they tried their level best to villainize the Second Male lead (The lawyer) for the sake of "justice" and "Drama".

Wonderful drama..worth a watch
Great drama, beautiful background of frosty whites of China's North-East, wonderful cast. BUT.. A VERY BIG BUT.... The bear lady and the "butcher/killer" were the most under-appreciated characters. Felt really bad for the butcher and didn't like the ending. The ending could have been much better.The butcher protected the child, fed her, clothed her, took down her enemies and was friendly also got kinda cheated on by the bear-lady as she saw a "better" opportunity with the ex-surgeon current-mortician.
I don't know if she calling "boyfriend" was true or a joke but both awesome weirdos togather would have made a great couple.
Anyways, it really is worth a watch.
This is the first time I actually liked a C-drama.

Fresh and interesting
Nice drama.. well scripted.. bit slow and dry in between but then catches speed in the ending episodes.Strong female lead. Evil female character is also done well. Thank you for the nice drama. ?
The detective female and Santa along wid the female sidekick..not just them.but all characters have an actual role with an actual purpose... That is what I liked the most out of this drama.
The drama has a fresh take on production, story-telling, mindset and thought process on direction of the drama and also, has faired well as far as the resultant output is concerned.

A mixed bag
Liked and disliked both at the same time because of the same reason - the characters.Good acting skills, considering that they're a new set of actors.
Good camera work and production.
I get it, the male lead has been bullied and he has issues that he has to confront but honestly, the character is just pathetic and obnoxious.
Rest two girls r just desperate for the male lead or "good looking guy".
Feel sad for the second male lead as he's very worthy of his high school girlfriend. But, personally would ship the high school girl (iff she has a bit more character development) and the Male lead.
The café owner's waaay too chill about her own business as if she doesn't have bills to pay kinda adding to the stereotype of cafe owners (don't get me wrong, i do like the character though).

Not one bit realistic but yet an entertaining drama
Not one bit realistic but yet an entertaining drama. Good production, a bit flawed with loopholes but yet interesting script.The dirtiest/villainous role in the drama as a plot twist goes to Hong Sa-Ra ( Michael Jang's assistant) as she(the character) has no consistency or loyalty to a party.
The drama is worth a watch if u got time to bing-watch through the whole drama.
Compared to several other k-dramas of the time I believe this has to be well-produced, well-rounded and well-strategized drama.
But, loopholes still are blatant and will be right in front of your eyes.

A hodge-podge of a drama
Expected a better drama. Male and female leads obviously are flawed characters made to look good forcibly causing weird transitions in drama was kinda fun until 4th episode out of the total 8 episodes.Expected a better drama.

Light-hearted comedy..not actually a horror drama.
Loved this drama. My first Taiwanese Drama ?? enjoyed it.. not very logical, light-hearted... The story unveils the female protagonist in a beautiful way.. technically she's the female version of Goblin in Korean Drama minus the 1000 year wait period. I kinda didn't like the 2nd female lead or the new love interest of the drama's male lead (she's always just looking for the best options available dsnt really like any1 as such). Kinda felt bad for 2nd male lead and the white-gown grrim reaper.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Good story with worst kind of execution
The drama has good story background.... Looking at the title, makes u feel it has something to do with E-sports but it has nothing to do with it... Worst kind of acting and casting ever observed in a drama around the globe.I would have never guessed this level of gayness could ever pass through Chinese Drama/film industry.
The drama has no actual substance in it and it's a bunch of pansies running the show. I mean, the goons who attack them are pansies, the reporters are weird and have no sense of proximity, the bosses are pansies . Rest of the cast is.. i don't know how to explain this but pansies.
I am kinda ok with BL Drama and have noticed that, there are many of them popping out this year and I do support the cause and also genuinely like chemistry in some of them.... But, this... This is just something else.

Why insult India and it's culture for no reason?
At first liked it... Then became very slow and very stale.. the producers tried their best to make it a suspense thriller but ended becoming slow and a bit sleep inducing boring.Also, y r u creating a problem that never existed?
I mean India and South Korea always had an amazing relationship. We respect each other a lot and find a lot of similarities in each other's culture and so feel very related to each other (most probably cz of the spread of Buddhism in Korea long time ago and also being an Easter race just like Indian-dravidians).
The series tries it's best to target and insult India/Hindu ideologies even tho it doesn't touch any of them at all.. pretty weird.
It's like when America was discovered but mistaken as India which is why we have the racial term "red/native Indians"
This series does the very same by antagonizing hindi that too by totaly mispronouncing and misinterpreting every syllable of Hindi. Showing as sanskrit mantra and yoga as marker of the ongoing "evil force"..
My question is WHY???

Was good but after 14th ep... ?
Man!! Where should I start? Leave it I am not going to complain.... Was great in start but started getting me irritated after the 14 episode.So dull and full of holes also, has the same problem as every other drama... Man is cretin and woman is the symbol greatness... Relationship dynamics totally tilted in all the wrong ways possible.
Start until the 14episode was great as it delivered as much as it said it would do. The stars that o gave are purely based on first 14episodes
In every stage after the female lead breaks up with the male lead she superficially pursues another man and yet male lead wags his tail not just that, every time in the episodes there are times where other characters try to legitimize her action or she shows emotions as if she loves and carres about the male lead... To simply put it, it's cringey and wrong.

Less psychology and more "drama-romance"
Acting is way better than most other Chinese dramas.Tried to fully replicate itself into a korean drama.
The show had waaay too much potential even the acting cast was good but the stupid misandrous romance just doesn't stop to ruin every other drama on this planet!!! I am just tired of it! Seriously, what is with drama industry and misandy?
This drama had amazing potential even the start to first 5-6 episodes were good.. but then the focus shifted from psychology to romance and drama under-delivered like hell . This is even worse than Geely GE copying Rolce Royce.
