Emma Sep 14 2025 6:44 am In my opinion Park Ju Hyun looks alike with Kim Hye Yoon. But she's more beautiful, strong and mature. Suitable for Kim Hye yoon's eonnie cast if there's a chance.

Norman noche Aug 22 2025 12:00 pm Jung Jung-Hyun was so dumb at ep12. He doesnt act like a cop at the pharmacy lol

Erra Aug 20 2025 2:13 am This drama is surprisingly very good and interesting. The durations is short with appr 30minutes each makes the episodes is bearable. The plot is good, the story is great, the actors are great with good chemistry. I love the details of the story and pictures, no hole in it. I totally recommend this drama for you who love dark story, psychopatic killers, and a slight hint of romance.

Nadia Aug 05 2025 6:51 pm This is the kind of drama I like, but I almost gave up on it because the English subtitles were so inaccurate. However, I'm glad I persevered. This drama keeps me on the edge of my seat the whole time! It's definitely worth watching!

lu Jul 23 2025 10:10 am Amazing drama! The story, the acting, the photography. Everything. Anyone criticizing this, calling it boring, doesn't like thrillers at all.

Rose Jul 20 2025 9:34 am To be honest, the story & plot needed more work & touches for to be a great drama. But the reason why I watched such a scary drama so much (I don't like this type) is the actress Ju Hyun⚘. Cuz the promotional clips for the drama more than once appeared in front of me & she was the one who strongly attracted me to watch it. Her acting was really professional & amazing. Bravoooo. She deserves an award for this strong acting. I literally lived the role with her. Thanks to her for her hard work & also thanks to the actor Kang hoon, he also did a very good job.

nachos lover Jul 12 2025 3:38 am To be honest, i really like the villain’s acting and his visual. I feel like I have never seen him anywhere, even though I have been a K-Drama fan for the longest time. That’s the only good thing about this one, lol.

Anyway, totally not recommending anyone watching this… It is lengthy, boring, and illogical. Normally, I don’t really mind the illogical in any dramas. But this one is really bad. I feel like it is making us audiences feel like we as individuals do not have any logical thoughts. Very challenging to finish this drama.

Tuan Santai Jul 12 2025 1:13 am Not bad, and not too good. 5/10

Tuan Santai Jul 12 2025 1:12 am @Wijo, Eun-Seo was dead, and burried.

Duan Duan Jul 09 2025 7:16 pm Really? so it's just me who find out that this series really interesting? and Park Ju-Hyun really did a great job to potrait the caracter of Seo Se-Hyeon. I love the chemistry between her and Jung Jung-Hyun.

sf Jul 08 2025 12:40 pm Apart from the fact that the story and the main female character's behaviour are awful, the translation of the drama on the site I watched it, is disastrous. Word after word, without any logical connection between them. The site administrator and the translator should be fired in two seconds.

Wijo Jul 08 2025 8:23 am I don't Know where is Go Eun-Seo?

Lina Jul 05 2025 1:24 pm I started it because it gave me Hyper Knife vibes, and I enjoyed HK so much. However, it’s been hard for me to watch this one. Mainly bc of the main female acting. I feel like she leaks expressions idk. Plot is ok, cast is ok, but acting i don’t feel it.

Aegon V Jul 02 2025 3:32 pm amateurish heavy handed script

the pursuit of edginess led to an incoherent incohesive unrealistic story

Ujamkelam Jun 29 2025 2:43 am May i know what song the father whistling to? In ep 6 when he drove the truck. I don't know whether it's Spanish or Italian song. Thanks

sf Jun 25 2025 1:56 pm Stupid story.

yourstar Jun 25 2025 10:51 am very troubling character writing, too much denial all across character

Aye Chan Jun 25 2025 6:30 am Shim Ji Yoo is Yeon Se Hyeon.Not Seo Se Hyeon. Shim Ji Yoo is not adult Park Ju Hyun.

leefera Jun 24 2025 3:32 am i think this drama is quite rare considering from how the female lead is very stubborn and brave. she doesn't care about the upper high people and only cares about herself. that's cool! for the male lead, he's quite weak, letting his team bullying him even though he's the captain. his teammate are so rude, not obeying the team leader just because he's younger and smarter.

Cindy Ubah Jun 23 2025 12:03 pm Does the serial killer have 3 daughters?

Ai Jun 19 2025 5:43 am @Ericca Lim

I don’t know if there will be a plot twist, but the main story seems to focus on Sehyun’s psychology and her trying to catch her father, and this is what makes me waiting for the drama (other from the cast). If there is a twist, I think it’ll be tied to their past. And by “their,” I also mean Jung Junghyun, because in eps 3 and 4, he clearly shows signs of trauma too.

Errica Lim Jun 18 2025 1:12 pm if you are in or into a med school, you could watch this. definitely not for the faint of hearts. On my 1st episode and that was already too much for me, I wouldn't be able to eat meat for the time being upon watching this. But still, I will continue to watch until the end.

Will there be a twist on this? since the culprit is already revealed as the forensic expert's father, that won't surprise us any longer. But, is it really the father or is there someone else other than him?

S Jun 18 2025 6:00 am The police are so annoying i just hope they're the next victim LOL

Jung Bareum Jun 18 2025 4:36 am Great job, Bong Yi

Maria Jun 16 2025 9:37 pm I guess the Laundry man is the culprit and the FL father( wild guess)

melek May 09 2025 3:52 pm I will watch this drama for Park Juhyun. We only have the poster yet, I can't wait for the new visuals, posters, and trailer. I hope it has a good story and flow

Tisya May 05 2025 5:51 am Cant wait, i miss kanghoon already ? The story also seems interesting
