Acting: The actors did a phenomenal job. Kim Jae Wook especially proved that he's superstar leading man material (I hope to see him in many more dramas in the near future). Excellent as always Park Min Young convinced me she IS her character Deok Mi and in love with her 'Lion'. I also really loved Kim Sun Young's funny portrayal of Ex-Director Uhm So Hye. Sure wish though that we'd got to see more dimensions of Si An other that 'sunshine', but "oh well..."
Music: I might download a song or two, but the soundtrack didn't blow me away as anything special.
Rewatch Value: If I do re-watch bits of this, it'll be for those kisses that make your toes curl.
Overall: If you're seeking a pure-heart drama that warms your heart - look no further - this is it! Light and fluffy, and sweet as cotton candy. All the characters get happy endings. Just don't expect anything beyond your standard rom-com here.

I started watching Suspicious Partner live as it aired in 2017. As both a fan of Ji Chang Wook, and Choi Tae Joon, I had high expectations that I was going to love this.
But during the course of the show, something recurred which spoiled my enjoyment: The pizza product placement storyline. And I will call it a storyline, because the PPL in this is NOT subtle. This drama soon started feeling like one big long pizza commercial. By episode 29, I finally rage-quit in disgust.
However... Over the passage of time, I began to wish I'd stuck it out, because I heard that Dong Ha's acting continued to shine in his role to the very end. So this weekend, with episode recaps in hand to help me skip past the pizza scenes, I picked this drama back up again and finally finished it. And I'm so glad I did - Dong Ha's character is so marvelously yummy good (and evil, of course). A couple of the minor characters are mildly annoying, but not enough to irritate me too much. (Well.. except the pizza character - I swear I'll never buy that brand of pizza in my life if I can avoid it.)
In conclusion: Worth watching (But recommend you skip the pizza scenes).
Story 6.0 (points were deducted for the PPL storyline)
Acting/Cast 9.0 (point deducted for the pizza character)
Music 7.0 (sorry, I felt like the music didn't fit the scene at times)

Acting: The main cast did a stellar job. (Bias note: I totally loved Jang Ki Yong's dark tormented protrayal of thug Lee Gwang Il in 'My Mister', so I wasn't disappointed by his performance here whatsoever.)
Music: Where can I buy this OST!? I NEED it. One of the best soundtracks I've ever heard in a drama.
Rewatch Value: I rarely rewatch dark tragic dramas that don't have a happy endings (my gentle heart can't handle them). But I might make an exception for this someday in the future.
Overall: Worth watching if you're looking for a great thriller drama, and not expecting a romance.
