Edit: I finished the series

As of right now, from watching what I have watched, I feel that the main lead is too headstrong. I have not finished the drama yet (I intend to) but it is getting kind of hard since the main protagonist is REALLY frustrating to watch. She wants to do things her way even though it might be wrong. She does not care about her clients and she lacks empathy. For example. in the first and second episode, she did not one consider the victim's mindset or how the trial would affect his life. She plays dirty to get what she wants, even if that's not what the client wants. On top of that, she LOVES to place blame on the other lead for small petty reasons such as in episode four when she said something like, "isn't this your fault too?" when talking about the perpetrator in her house. She is annoying and I do not see growth in her as of right now. who knows, maybe she'll change, but it is not looking too good for that from other reviews I have read.

Simply put, the storyline is getting kind of frustrating to follow as I do not enjoy this type of trope.

Music is not bad, but they're currently not a track that I tried to look up because it enticed me.

Edit: I have now finished the series. To be honest, I have not seen plotholes as other viewers have commented on. Perhaps I am just not observant enough. However, I honestly feel like there were too many things that happened at the right place at the right time, or that the characters were able to connect the dots too soon and whatnot. For example, how was Ma Yi Deum so quick to figure out that there was a video deleting app on the tablet she was given? Or that Nurse Choi on the island with Yi Deum's mom knew that the package delivery driver is out to get them simply because there was a "package" for the both of them? I felt like the explanation was not while guns were jumped. As for the right place and right time, how were the nurse and the mom able to escape the killers in time? I feel like those were all too convenient.

As for the main female lead, I would say that she is not as annoying or frustrating to watch, but I do see a lack of character development. However, I am actually okay with that as she is finally able to use some questionable tactics to finally get the main antagonist.

Great thriller!

First off... OUCH! This is the first Kdrama I have seen that has the protagonist die T.T

This is the first Kdrama I have seen with the least amount of episodes, yet packed with so much action! I truly enjoyed this series because it was a break from other Kdramas I usually see, but it caught my attention. As a result, I could be biased. However, I honestly enjoyed the mix of action scenes, and the case slowly unraveling. It was a good medley of suspense, thriller, action, and mystery.

This is the first Kdrama I have seen where the co-leads do not live happily ever after, so I'm not going to lie, that took me aback. I thought that Kim Soo-Hyun would just go to jail at the very most of be let off or escape at the very least. To see the protagonist and the side kick, Phillip, die was just a shock to me.

I agree with some of the viewers that there were some plot holes I disagreed with such as, how did Do Hyun-Jin know so quickly that Ko Hyeon Woo and Yoon Ji-Hye worked together and simply the client of Kim Soo-Hyun? Also, why was the door to Kim Soo-Hyun lair opened like that?!? Wouldn't he know better to close and lock it at all times? One more thing, if the father did not see Do Hyun-Jin as his daughter, why did he help her "remember" who her favorite ballerina and what current performance the ballerina has? I found that scene confusing.

Unlike most people, I actually did not think all too much about the music. If anything, the music has to be the least memorable part of the whole drama. Usually, I would research the OST or who sang what song during a scene, but that did not happen at all with this drama until the end scene where the two co-leads were walking in a grassy field.

Because the story is simple and straight forward, I had an easy time following the storyline. Sometimes I would question why characters would do something such as "well, why do they do this?" "How did they find out so quickly?" or "Is this how they would ACTUALLY react in real life?" But none of those occurred because the story was straightforward.

Even though the story was straight forward and there weren't many (if any) plot twists, I truly enjoyed the series as it was really cute and entertaining; almost like a slice of life drama that people would want to empathize with.

I almost got tired of the female role of being weak and vulnerable and the story was typical, which is why I gave it a 6/10. However, the acting was great because they both played different character types from their well-known roles from Goblin and their acting skills are like the opposite of who they are in real life (from watching their interaction if extras and other videos).

Make it Count by Chen is by far my favorite song in this Kdrama.
