Story - I love how each case was based on a true crime that occurs in reality. Not only does it elaborate details related to the crime, the show also informs the viewers some ways to prevent it. I really found the format of this show awesome and unique. My personal favorite cases would be: Ep 3 & 4: The School Murder, Ep 7: The Prison, and Ep 10: The Finale.
Acting/Cast - I love how there are no clear alliances and suspicions are thrown against each other. I found myself loving some of the chemistry between some of the "suspects" they were playing during the cases. My personal favorite of the cast would be Hong Jin Ho because I find him smart and I like him so far in this season. I really thought Henry was weird during his appearances. Out of all the guests, my top picks would be Kang Min Hyuk and the real detective that appeared with him. I think the most improved out of the main cast would be Kim Yoon Ji and I am sad that she won't be in the 2nd season. Lastly, out of everybody, I find Park Ji Yoon leaving a bad taste during the last 2 episodes with her choice of words and her temper.
Music - I didn't really took notice of the music during the cases but I rated it 10 because I loved the last music they used during the last scenes of the last episode. It gave me some feels that it was ending its first season.
Rewatch Value: I rated it the lowest because there's no suspense and thrill anymore if you rewatch it.
Overall: 9/10. There are flaws and pacing issues especially in the first few episodes but I'm glad that the show found ways to improve itself as episodes go by.
Now, off to binge-watching season 2!

Very realistic crime scene setup that you would really use your brain to solve the crime.
This is one of my favorite show of all times. I like this kind of detective themed shows. I love the feeling of gathering several pieces of clues to complete the whole puzzle of mystery. They are also reenacting a crime based on a similar event that really happened. Then afterwards they have the segment of a specialist trying to relate the case to real life scenarios making it very informative and raising awareness.For the casts, they are really daebak (awesome) because everyone have their unique personality thus making it more fun. Given the seriousness of the Crime Scene having someone murdered, there were bits of comedy all throughout each episodes. Henry Lau's character on the first 2 cases is confusing. I'm not sure if he's really like that or if that's just a concept for him to act crazy. And also I don't like the lawyer on the first few episodes for some reason but still, all the other casts were perfectly fine. They always got me fooled every time so I barely solved and figured out the culprit but still it's fun.
The sound effects are really engrossing giving off the mysterious ambience. I also find them cute every time they get shocked of the sound effects all throughout.
This is really a good show and I'm already looking forward in watching Season 2. I will definitely watch it again after few years so that by that time I forgot already the suspects and would be able to try guessing the culprit again.

if you liked the Genius, this is a good watch!
It starts off a little slow since each case took up 2 eps, but after the first 6 eps each case was just one ep which increased the thrill and excitement. It's a fun show to watch if you like murder mysteries and mind games! i love murder mysteries and the fact that each cast member had to act as the suspects added to the fun. Two of the cases even had a real police detective on the show with the cast members, and those were the most fun!! Last ep was especially exciting~ Can't wait to watch the next season now hahaConsiderați utilă această recenzie?
