Guess as much as drama still follows how webtoon dealt with Jang Ilhyun and Choi Gangjin, there will be some slight difference on how they occured. Like Yoona's case was originally about double contract violations but turned into propofol case. Same with the stuff with the things Assemblyman Hwang revealed. Also drama covered more of Cheonha's side this time and we see conflicts rise smongst the siblings. Suppose this is to allow Heeah take more active role in management.

Whoa! I have no words to describe my delight! And just so happened I just barely caught up to this part of the plot in webtoon. Honestly, reading the webtoon alongside watching the drama as new episodes unfold was such an experience. I love the fact that drama dealt with the matters with Jang Ilhyun in a slightly different pov yet having seen how Heewoo dealt with the matter in webtoon, watching how every piece come together in drama was pretty interesting. Drama had it a bit differently in that we got to see Kim Seokhoon get Choi Gangjin to help Jang, but in a way it somewhat fill the hole in webtoon with regards to the whole situation. Cos I had been wondering how could Kim Seokhoon truly trust Heewoo while also being wary of Chief Jeon, but with this all the missing pieces fit perfectly! I also like how drama provide a different pov to the scene where Jang tries to get Heewoo to investigate Choi and having Gangjin overhear them. That made Gangjin's actions later in trying to dig on Heewoo came out a lot more naturally than in webtoon. And because of that, Heewoo end up wrapping everything together within a day! That said, I love the fact that Assemblyman Hwang ended up being played by none other that senior actor Yoon Donggeun. That was a perfect casting! And I like how we get to see a lot more of Assemblyman Hwang compared to webtoon. And while his meeting with Heewoo turned out differently in drama, I like how we get to see how the two of them grew to truly trust each other, in which we didn't really get to see in webtoon. I also like how get to see a bit more of the happenings in Cheonha. So Heeah's father did try to not be too reliant on Jo Taesub and that's why later on Jo decided to target her father to scare him a bit. I really love how the writer handle this drama, in that the drama writing complements the writing from the original webtoon. It's really exciting!

It's finally finished... and well, it's not too bad. Cos seriously by this point I'm just watching for Bae Taejin. Fortunately, things didn't get any worse. Tho as much as I'm fine with how the endgame between Bae Taejin and Hochul turn out, Kwon's end wasn't really that satisfying. But I was expecting that Bae would try to fake being mentally disabled just to get to Kwon and finish the job. The whole backstory extra regarding Kwon's childhood could've been revealed much earlier tbh, cos seeing it now felt a bit bland. Anyway, I guess it's a happy ending... somewhat. So I don't really get it why drama need to end this with yet a new random creep who also seemed to be an artist watching over the family. Then again, I can finally put this drama behind me now.

I really love how smooth everything turned out, guess I worried for no reason. But I guess finally now we know a bit about Lee Minsoo's motivation. Even then, considering that in the past Minsoo and Heewoo never crossed paths might mean that something must have happened to him before. And it's possible that it was the same case as it had been for Heewoo. So that may explain why this time he seek Heewoo much earlier. That said, it was so invigorating to see how well Heewoo divided the tasks to all his allies to complete the tasks that he couldn't do directly, thus lessening the danger placed on him as well as everyone. And in doing so, Heewoo managed to save the med student and catch the real killer. And while it wasn't directly implied, I guess Heewoo must've worked on Kang Deokgu's case in the previous life for him to know about the location of the dumping ground as well as how dangerous the guy was. Well, because of that we got to see Yeonseok in action. That felt good. Even more when finally after all the covert plans came together, Heewoo finally given the task to end Jang completely. Things really are going well now... though it felt that Jo Taesub may get a bit of victory in next episode. And I have to say, the fact that we haven't seen the assassin guy for so long is making me uneasy.

Heewoo's really on a roll, it's really amazing how neatly everything being wrapped up. And all these people were acting together in a joint operation while unaware that they were being driven by an experienced prosecutor hidden under the guise of a 'rookie'. The whole thing really looked like a splendid game of chess. I also like how Heewoo also looking out for Yeonseok the same way he did with Sangman. At this rate, one can't help seeing Heewoo to be similar to Mr Woo mentally (but then if you consider the years Heewoo originally lived added with the years he repeated, his mental age might as well be close to Mr Woo anyway). That said, I started to also wonder if there are more than just Heewoo who had ended up going back in time other than him as some had theorised. Since Minsoo really started getting my attention now, and it seemed like now he's taking the role that Heewoo used be in his previous life. And that was worrying since we already knew what happened to Heewoo before. Heewoo finally got deeper into the secret club... and Chief Kim really having his eyes on Heewoo. Though I wonder why Chief Kim so easily trusts Heewoo as if forgetting that Heewoo was the one who insisted to bring Chief Jeon to Seoul. Good to see Heewoo noticing it too and I have to say that I didn't expect that Heewoo's plan go that far as to want to pave the way for Chief Jeon to replace Chief Kim. But I guess that was expected, considering the relation between Chief Kim and Jo Taesub. But as much as things had been going well on Heewoo's side, I do hope that he didn’t get too overconfident with how things are right now. Since the position he's in acting like a double agent was pretty delicate, one wrong move could easily ruin everything. With each episode the action scenes always never disappoint! I really love how the camera work made it look like Heewoo was dancing around as he fought all the gangsters. This whole episode was awesome!

So I guess Lieutenant Choi wasn't completely dumb, about time people in this drama get more competent. Hochul too. Though it was kinda annoying that drama got less dumb only near the last two episodes. But then WHY? DO. THEY. HAVE. TO PULL. THAT. LAST. TWIST? I can't even be happy that Hochul finally found Sooah -__-

Heh... so THAT's the reason why he chose to go to Gimsan. Pretty impressive for him to want to also save Chief Jeon, cos this same case was probably the same reason why he ended up resigning the first time. And I see he's already in contact with Hanmi... and Hee Ah too. Things a really starting to get real good, it's really looking pretty good for Heewoo... getting on the case this time with so many people at his side as compared to last time when he's been doing this all by himself. And finally we're meeting Lee Minsoo and Kyuri again after so long. Heewoo really kept getting cooler and cooler every episode www And next week Heewoo finally meeting Jo Taesub again after so long.

Ahaha...At this rate I'm really going to ship Heewoo with Hanmi now wwww. They really looked good together... and I like how Heewoo keep supporting her like the cool guy he is. And it's nice to see him help Sangman pretty early compared to the first time round and that adds up to his lists of allies. Really glad to see that we jump timeline after this, cos I was looking forward to him returning to his prosecutor job. Though to be fair, I was worried that Heewoo might cut it close by helping Sangman earlier that originally.That said, whoa! Pretty nice fight choreography with the fights at the pool table room!

Ah.... stress. Just when I thought that I wouldn't get even more frustrated with the drama. But hey on the bright side, Detective Chu was still barely alive... though looking at the teaser I didn't really have much confidence that she'll stay that way. And I'm still judging Hochul's decision of betraying our lovely hired killer but at least Mr Bae still lives. It's still annoying that the writer made things all so complicated like this just so we're literally having to struggle to watch Hochul being pingpong-ed between Kwon and Bae. And just when I thought that the mom gonna figure things out FINALLY and do a wise thing she got herself taken hostaged LIKE WHY THE HELL DON'T YOU CALL SOOAH'S PHONE INSTEAD? I swear by now I'm only barely following this drama just because we're already almost reaching the end so I might as well see the rest of this thing.

For a sec I had to wonder if Heewoo really did encounter his killer again or was it just his nightmare. Though I had to say that I got worried a bit. Since now even more it does appear that the guy was not a normal person. Come to think, the same could be said for the other ladies from before. Setting that aside, it was still pretty cool how popular Heewoo was with everyone. And it's nice to see him continue to help Kyuri and Hanmi, who may prove to be a good ally to Heewoo's cause. It's also interesting how Heewoo ended up crossing paths with Mr Woo who inevitably ended up being targeted by Cho Taesub. I still love how he managed to save Mt Woo and indirectly being able to foil the enemy's plans. Though from the way things were going, I can't help worrying about Heesoo. That said, what that Lady Grim Reaper said earlier... it all made sense now. Though one had to wonder why the lady was hanging around Cho.

What a great start to the drama. Kim Heewoo gave off a great impression of a righteous prosecutor who also can be quite rough and reckless. And it does appear that he was in a mission to punish corrupt people in line with the vows he took when he became a prosecutor. And while at first he does seem to be a bit too ambitious and reckless to go after Cho Taesub without anticipating how great a risk that he'd take, we later find out that Heewoo had quite a tough beginning prior to becoming a prosecutor. That said, it made me curious as to who was the lady in red who was able to save Heewoo and send him back in time. Since it should be obvious that she wasn't a normal person. Besides that, it was really cute to see Heewoo went to a complete character change once he realised that he returned to a point in time when his parents were still alive. But of course after what he went through his first life, being able to resolve his guilt about not being a good son to his parents was a happy thing.

Sigh... I kinda had a suspicion that Detective Chu gonna get the red flag. Kinda wished Hochul got a hold of her before she end up following the guy too close. Damn the cops are stupid too, what killer gonna try to save the victim they're trying to kill? Hope they start questioning the reason behind all those spy cams and stuff. And damn, Seoah escaped one danger to another. But I guess now we arrive to the point we started with at the first episode.

Kinda have mixed feelings about this episode. Like it felt as if things got overcomplicated even more than it already has. That said, I got slightly bothered at how Hochul took a bit too long to change out his bloodied clothes. Like I get he was still shocked at Sooah's kidnapping and the security kid'd death... but did he really have to be so completely stupified? That said, Detective Chu really got good instincts regarding the serial killer but then again the guy was intentionally leaving hints openly. Seriously, as much as the plot did move forward a bit, it felt that things will end up being sidetracked again due to the reporter leaking the info about Hochul again. Really hope that it didn't end up getting much more frustrating afterwards.

Ahaha... stress. But I guess that explained why the hired killer used such a roundabout way to get Hochul to remember and kill the serial killer guy. And the reason for the time limit as well. But man... that red flag. I hate the fact that I could immediately recognised it gonna happen but have no choice but see it unfold. But that said, it made me wonder why the wife didn't suspect anything for the past two years about letting her daughter take her art class from her neighbour despite having suspicion that the Rich Girl serial killer may be an artist. And she was supposed to be in charge of the investigation of previous cases too. Aah, there goes another week of waiting for new episodes!

Jin Goo playing a paramedic firefighter in this drama, that was interesting. I didn't know that it's possible for the two job speciality could be combined but that's quite usefull. Though I guess what happened afterwards was a bummer.So far the basic premise had been laid out plainly and even the summary of the drama already frame up what would happen so all that's left was watching the execution. Though I wished that we weren't already being given too much info from the very beginning. But overal the drama had a great start so that’s fine.Considering this is an OCN drama I guess I should've expected that the murder scenes gonna be gruesome. Though it does made me wonder if the daughter was aware that the guy was the killer who injured her father two years prior.
