An unexpected little gem

The Imperial Coroner is a drama that I stumbled across by chance. I hadn't seen it advertised anywhere and so was pleasantly surprised.
It is a historical crime/romance drama where the two themes are well balanced. The pacing is good, and the scripting is fine. Acting-wise I think all involved are doing a solid job. The ML and FL are nicely portrayed but I root for the second LC. Their story also brings some comic relief into the drama. Only the villain is a bit over the top. Though there are no big names to this drama, it is clearly worthwhile considering it.
