A fangirl review over why you should watch this even if its just for one character.
I literally started this drama because it was recommended to me on Netflix since I just watched Familiar Wife, a show that also had Jang Seung Jo as a cast member. I totally didn't notice him as special in there but OH LET ME TELL YOU.
I never write reviews. I think i only wrote one before? I'm not that good at them, but since The Good Detective has become my comfort show I HAD to say something. Actually also a thing that I don't do is rewatch shows, heck i had no clue what a comfort show was or ~felt~ like.
This one tho, I couldn't NOT rewatch it and I'm pretty sure I can rewatch it over and over again and not get bored. I'm gonna tell you why exactly that is.
The story is good, not super special, but a good watch and not boring at all. The thing that makes this drama epic, and I'm gonna be a super basic ass fangirl here, is Jang Seung Jo. Or specifically Oh Ji Hyuk. If you like bad boys, this is your guy, if you like good guys, this is your guy, tsundere? this guy. broken boi? this guy. I tell you I watched this drama months ago for the first time and can still fangirl like day 1. His character is the perfect chaotic neutral tsundere with a ~past and ~issues. And if that didn't convince you yet, hes good looking aswell.
The funny thing is, Jang Seung Jo is an amazing actor. In his other dramas he is totally different (signs of a good actor ofcourse, i dont get why hes not more popular) You can really see he has different personalities in his other dramas which is great.
On the rest of the show:
The other characters are great and have depth, the women in this show are strong (personalities and physically ;') which makes this drama even better. The only criticism I have about the story of the show is that the end 'revelation' of what who when and where isn't as spectacular for the whole drama to revolve around. Its something you already predicted and figured out slowly. There are a lot of medium-important characters to be confused about. Doesn't make the drama worse though.
