I wanted to like this series because I am a huge Seo Ji Hye fan. She does look lovely, a real ice queen here with flowing curls and beautifully dressed. But the story of this show is not well told and unnecessarily confusing.
A mystery writer goes to stay with this Chairman he suspects framed his father for murder. All they seem to do is run round the fancy mansion and not much progress is made for the longest time. Concurrently the prosecutor twin brother investigates. The scenes are all similar. A lot of scenes and conversations lead nowhere and just make things complicated without advancing the plot. Then the twists happen too quickly and obscurely so ended up lost now and then. Illogical and improbable twists. Headache.
So many plot holes. How could the 2 SIH agents not know each other in the same operation? How could the writer staying at the house not have met the son earlier? Could the Team A be so bold as to go against the SIH? Too many characters as well. Couldn't keep track who was doing what. Something illogical happens and then they go back and explain it but by by then the viewer is already confused. Needless.
Instead of showing the back stories to get sympathy with the characters earlier they explain things later on but the viewer doesn't care about the characters then. 12 episodes would have been enough. The explain things partially each time so it's hard to keep track. They should have shown Seo Ji Hye and Ahn Bo Hyun together to establish a proper back story.
Ji Sung plays twins but they are not differentiated sufficiently so it's confusing which one is which.
The undercover cop Heo Sung Tae has a villain face. So he is badly cast. Can't stand that hysterical housekeeper woman. Screaming for everything. One dimensional. After all that the ending was inconclusive. So it felt like a waste of time.
Not really worth watching even if you like the leads. The writer is not good and the direction is confusing. He directed Kairos which was a mess.
