Totally sold on detective developments, not sure relationships wise
Thrilled by the detective story unfolding with each episode, but past the middle of the story the quality of the script significantly deteriorated, both in terms of the crime story (improved a bit closer to the ending) and relationships wise it turned into a loose collection of hackneyed BL cliches.
Love for:
1) The detective and forensic multilayered part of the story. Focus on relatable and recognizable real-life problems of developing world: corruption of the people in power. These aspects outweighed for me any minor and major issues I have found with this production.
2) Acting of the supporting cast. Two leads being grown-up characters. I liked the Doctor's character in the first half of the show then unfortunately he lost any depth of the personality, it felt like the actor had no substance to deliver.
What was not my cup of tea:
I failed to feel any sympathy towards the leading tutor-mobster character from the beginning. He developed more dimensions closer to the ending. I haven't watched any dramas with these two leads before. But given what I perceived as a lack of any tension and the spark between them it was clear they are an established onscreen partnership, who are quite ok with the usual fan service and closer to the end both the script and their acting looked like that. Their first time love scene was acted very sensual and genuine though.
I guess this is how this industry works and I only have to respect that established screen couples are cast, but... couldn't help but dreamt the doctor was romantically involved with someone more ethically suitable like a journalist or a policeman (then it could be followed with a new forensic investigative series!) I love happy ends, happy ends are everything, but... it didn't feel a good ending for me. I prefer the doctor to stay single than saying "yes" to the person who stages an armed kidnapping as his proposal. Sick. The doctor has no self-respect for accepting such a treatment.
The most unimpressive part was when the tutor-mobster chains his beloved man in a place in the middle of nowhere because... he cares for him? Ok, in real life, returning in 24 hours he would find him dehydrated, in a pool of his own urea and feces, and it's in the best case scenario. The worst case, the first guy never returns from his meeting with adversaries, the second guy most likely dies. That's love and care for you. Dear Scriptwriters, you have done a lot of amazing, incredible job with this series, please make next time a more coherent story for the characters we are looking forward to value/understand/fall in love with.
