![]() I was.literally about to drop.this series in ep 10.but when i realized that i had to zone out on the incompetency of the cops and the fact that the writing is highly flawed and focused only on the OTP i began to enjoy the show. ![]() I am not going to repeat myself cuz u said it all. And drama that’s as high as they can take it, too.īy the final episodes, whenever the scene had anything to do with the murderer, Show literally felt like classic high melodrama, with all of its characters’ exaggerated reaction shots and the pulsing orchestra music in the background (example above). And that is, that this show isn’t made for crime-solving, it’s made for drama. In the last stretch of the drama, though, I had a Realization. And, in spite of the murder context, the sweet moments between Moo Gak and Cho Rim didn’t feel out of place, which is more than I can say for other shows trying to mix murder with romance ( My Secret Hotel, for example).īy episode 10, though, I’d lost all interest in the serial murderer arc, thanks to the illogical and haphazard writing. Show actually started off pretty decently in how it managed to give us movement on the Barcode Murder cases and allowing the characters and their relationships room for development, all while keeping the show light. Like, how does Cho Rim expect Moo Gak to be kept in the dark about her involvement while he’s being brought back on the case, when she herself is the central witness to the case?Īnd how about that time in the same episode, when Cho Rim gets the text from her dad (Jung In Ki) to go pick him up, which gives his location as Jae Hee’s (Nam Goong Min) address? Surely Cho Rim would recognize the address, having been to the house multiple times before?Īnd failing that, when she arrives at the house, surely she would know it’s Jae Hee’s house, and then SURELY she would wonder what on earth Dad is doing there? Especially since Lieutenant Yeom has by this point told her how she’s suspicious of Jae Hee? Or how about the time in episode 11, when Cho Rim wants to regain her memories to catch the murderer, and asks Lieutenant Yeom (Yoon Jin Seo) to keep everything from Moo Gak, WHILE requesting that Lt. From the murderer pulling a knife on Cho Rim in broad daylight, to Moo Gak knowing exactly where to find her even though her text gave no location, AND she was still on the run. Shout-out, too, to that entire chase sequence involving Cho Rim and the murderer in the same episode.
