A Crime Drama with Interesting Cases
There are certain aspects of the drama that I want to rate outside the MDL format.
Story/Writing: 8.5/10
Somehow, whilst watching this, I had to remind myself that this is a crime comedy drama and not a pure crime drama.
I have to say the writing was okay-ish. We've got a not-so-honest but righteous male lead (Jin Kang Ho) and a brave female lead that butted head on who will be the first to catch the culprit and deliver the news to the public. The female lead is written as a really brave, reckless, "crazy" woman. The recklessness was almost to the point of stupid, I almost hate her LOL. I mean, woman can be brave AND smart, you know. Fortunately, we've got our Red Zone Gang to save our main leads. They are funny and gold. I like them. Then we've got our mortitian and profiler who are very smart but otherwise useless in the field. They are citizens and men are allowed to not able to fight.
So these people got together to solve cases. Mind you, the cases were AWESOME. They are so unique, and I think all of them are originalé by the writer him/herself. I haven't countered any of them in any kdrama before and I consider myself as an avid crime kdrama watcher (?) LOL, I am sorry. I am sorry, if the writer actually took inspiration from cases outside korea. They sounded new to me. Hence the 8.5.
Some of the dialogues were just comedic relief. Some of the 'plots and characters' are completely irrelevant, annoying, and doesn't add any substance to the story. So I found myself hitting the '+10' button a lot. With the amount of the story, I think parts of the story should be explored more and parts of the story should just be erased.
Sometimes, I don't get the logic behind the actions of our Main Leads (pkease anybody, tell me, a gangster deserves to go to the hoespital and carried by an ambulance right) they are still a person.)
Also, I was kinda sad I didn't get to hear our FL's signature sound at the end of the drama. They kinda forgot about it LOL. You'll know about it. AND don't analyze the comedy, and how the characters can get from point A to C so quickly, don't use your brain so much.
Production: 7/10
The director and production team didn't really focus on the detail of the crime and the technical side of investigation. So there might be inconsistencies on how they handle the case.
Acting: 9.5/10
They have an amazing chemistry. And the killers are gruesome.
Music: 8/10
The music are very fun, it enhances the comedic feeling and it sets the tone appropriately.
Rewatch Value: 5/10
Overall, this is a really good drama if you're a fan of korean comedy AND crime drama. If you like serious crime drama, I am afraid you won't enjoy this as much. I rated the rewatch value as 5 because honestly I was a whole lot annoyed by the recklessness of our female lead. They dumb her down. Thus, they dumb the viewer down. But still, I might rewatch this for the cases.
