The writers had to cut so many aspects of this story,that is a new topic in drama land,just because of the 8 episode rule that Netflix had.What is the result of that? The show ended with a cliff hanger making us wait for season two.They could've at least give answers to some questions but were more like "No,lets finish this in the most incomplete way."
The acting is not bad,but it's not something amazing either.you could've either sense the lack of experience in the two main leads or maybe that was the way that the director wanted them to act,either way it wasn't perfect.
Another unbelievable fact for me is the way that this drama is so bad at the music and OST.
But what is strange and in the same time good,is the way the whole series wants you to stay and watch what happens to the characters.so is it worth watching? If you have time and want a good love triangle,why not.

I started to watch this series because of the art in the posters(YES THERE IS ART THERE) that gave me this vibe i get from western thriller tv series, and as a big fan of this genre i let it be the first OCN thriller i've ever watched;little i knew it's going to turn into one of the best kdramas i've ever and i ever will be.
The drama starts with a scene from the past and when it comes to show the current time,three minutes after,for maybe more than the half of the episode the story might be confusing.What kept me watching you ask?the brilliant talent of the actors and the amazing work of the director that keeps you captivated to get more of it.
what i should tell now is that i started watching this series not having watched any previous work from the actors,so it was a pleasant surprise when i saw the great work of the whole cast team.
(Han Seok Kyu is such a big talent that you'll gonna stop in the middle to just ask yourself if he is even acting or this is him being himself...give the man all the awards that exist!!)
The plot is complicated.the amount of information that you get in every episode is a lot.This isn't a story where the main characters go to beat up the bad guys,most of the time you have to collect the information and have the brain to know how to use them.but don't worry cause we do have action too.
a question asked a lot during this drama is "what makes someone human?" and i think this is a great hint to the work of the writer,writing his characters in the most humanly way showing all of its complexity.
what it's needed to be said is that during the show there are some flaws in the script,but they are little and i think it does not ruin the whole good thing.
The background music and OSTs are so beautiful and catchy and it bonds so greatly to the atmosphere of every scene they're played.no need to say i'm listening to the songs in repeat.
All in all i loved this drama and i adore the fact that it gives you the vibe that maybe they will make a second season of it,what i know is that my brain and soul are ready to devour endless number of seasons of this LOL
(sorry if the review is not great,it's my first time and i'm just so full of emotions :D)

the music was great,the acting was good and the plot itself was captivating enough to make people put it on their watch list.but somehow in the middle of the drama the fact that the screenwriter didn't have so much experience started to show;characters started to act stupidly,the story started to drag ,the pace became slow and it all turned to something that,based on the first episodes,could've been so much better.
Still,the story was good enough to continue and the music had a good impact too.
The casting of this drama was good.Jun and Choi Kyu Jin were both great and Yoon Gyun Sang was good enough but on the other hand Geum Sae Rok's acting was a slap on the face,it was just to unnatural.
I was not satisfied of the ending.i believe the writer had problem to give some of the characters a proper ending,but all in all i enjoyed the weeks i spent waiting for the next episodes of this,thanks to OCN for this great season of dramas.
