There are a lot of really good reviews about this drama, and I feel like expressing my unpopular opinion,

PLOT: Weak. At the beginning it felt like it was going in a good direction. To be honest I liked 1000x more the story narrated through the flashbacks than the main portion, but the real issue for me is that it seems wanting to be a psychological thriller with no real psychology in it. The motives of the murderer are a classic example of "Because I am evil" character. No redeeming qualities and no charm at all. When studying criminology, you learn pretty fast that serial killers do possess interesting traits that make you want to know more about their thinking. This? I really couldn´t care less. The romance is there because it has to be there ( for unknown reasons ) and honestly is not credible at all. No twists, characters thrown in midway through to fill the blanks and an ending that was just cheesy and felt like a completely different ( poor ) drama overall.

CAST: Boy, oh boy. I will get this out immediately. Main male lead: boring. Sorry, I know that a lot of people liked him, but he had no personality at all and I wanted to throw something at my screen for every expressionless shot we got of that face. And we got a lot. Main female lead: a lot of potential, but then... ROMANCE. Her best scenes were at the end, when the male lead was nowhere and we finally got some personality from the girl. The chemistry between these two was non-existent. The killer... ugh. He looked constipated most of the time, I will just leave it here.

BUT... I will say that the supporting cast saved this drama for me. The brothers were absolute scene stealers. I loved their dialogues, I loved their acting and I loved their plotlines. If the show was about them, it would have not taken me so long to finish it. The mother got some really emotional scenes and the acting felt genuine, her actions had depth. The "evil" reporter could have been better, she suffered from the problem these writers seem to have with negative characters, but overall she captured my attention for a short while.

Shoutout to the children in the flashbacks. All of them were magnificent and I really liked them ( even the main, here, when their interactions are actually sweet and heartfelt )

Ah, yes. There were two people following/admiring the killer. That´s as much as I can say about these two, they were forgettable.

MUSIC: To be honest I seldom notice music in a drama, unless it is really up to my tastes. I don´t even remember a note here.

REWATCH VALUE: ...I fought my way to the finish line, I´m surely never going back again for more

OVERALL: Meh. I would still not NOT recommend it. Everyone should try for themselves, just because this isn´t my cup of tea, it doesn´t mean it can´t be yours.
