Inconsistent and disappointing
If you haven't watched Pinocchio, you really should instead of watching this drama. It's written by the same writer and executed in the same style and feel, but without the messy acting and plot holes.
I was expecting a lot more from this, considering the top quality writer and a cast that includes Lee Jong Suk and Jung Hae In. However, the directing and acting was really off, especially from Bae Suzy. Her performance does get better after the first few episodes, but I don't care enough about her character to get invested in it or the storyline.
One performance I really liked was by Kim Won Hae, who plays the investigator in a way that is truthful to what he knows. He was fantastic. On the other hand, our villain Yu Beom falls pretty flat. I don't fault Lee Sang Yeob for his performance. I believe it's weak writing that contributes to this issue. There are also a ton of plot holes and side stories that don't contribute like they should to the development of the characters and the plot.
Overall, it was disappointing.
