Can’t wait for this.

another drama with the murder statute of limitations. since this is supposedly based on real happenings, i wonder if the writing is true to form, but i suspect not. there would be a deviation to inject romance, etc. to make the drama worth watching, from what is already known.
March 28th, 2014 at 6:42 pm
Storyline is intersting… i’ll be wit…^_^

Do you know if it has been postponed due to the ferry incident? Because I can’t find ep 3 anywhere (even in raw version) which is strange considering it should have aired 3 days ago…
April 25th, 2014 at 11:42 pm
^Yes. It has been postponed due to the ferry incident.
Episode 3 will come out today 🙂
April 28th, 2014 at 3:23 pm
The drama makes a really dumb detective, who can’t detect his on fart lead a homicide investigation. How is that possible?
I’m enjoying it so far, but most of this appears to me as fiction built around the actual event(s).
April 30th, 2014 at 7:48 am
Where can we watch it? Can someone help me… Thank you.
April 30th, 2014 at 8:29 pm

where is rating? rating please
May 10th, 2014 at 5:23 pm
fuck this rating……. coz the drama was soo fucking amazing…………..
May 10th, 2014 at 7:32 pm
♥I can not breathe until the next chapter. Wow, what a nerve-wracking series♥
May 11th, 2014 at 3:43 am
the story is interesting…..but for each scene i can’t help wondering if the real murderer is watching.
I get the feeling he’ll laugh his heart out of his cruel accomplishment…..
not everyday crime make it to a movie or even tv series……..
he may watch and laugh at the stupidity of each scene or maybe frown at extra things that he didn’t do and can’t help wondering he should do that before…….
well, i don’t know….it’s just my wild imagination……
i do not he burns in hell and died the worst possible death ever as he inflicted upon his victim……
May 11th, 2014 at 3:44 am
* hope
May 11th, 2014 at 1:05 pm
The real Gap Dong is in the psych ward for criminals it seems. Someone on the outside, possibly the evil-looking rich kid is master-minding the copy-cat Gap Dong murders.
But this is all fucked up by a writer who is messing with our heads. Which is usually a sign there’s not a whole lot of story there and in the end the thing will fall flat.
May 16th, 2014 at 6:45 am
I think the rating system does not truly reflect who is watching, but the ratters have to make a living. There is so much politics involved in ratings. What I place more importance on is the viewers comments and not just comments from one site. Really am intrigued by this drama.
May 26th, 2014 at 7:15 am
This drama is incredible! I don’t know what will be later, but now I could’t stop myself from wathing until it was morning
May 27th, 2014 at 11:23 am
Waa…. It’s really thriling! Up to 12th episode and when we know who the real Gap dong is…. Can’t wait for next episodes…. Daebak!!!!
June 3rd, 2014 at 2:59 pm

One of the difficulties for this drama is trying to find a place that is subbing it. I finally did and of course this makes me a fan of the website that takes the time to sub the non high profile dramas. Obviously everybody and their brother will race to sub a Lee Min Ho drama even if its not up to par, but there’re a lot of us who love these dramas. Anyway, this is excellent as far as my opinion goes.

Not liking Ma Ji Wool. I guess in every drama you have to have someone you don t like and in this case she is it for me. I haven t seen the actress in anything else, but I am thinking I probably wouldn’t t like her in those either.
June 28th, 2014 at 3:52 pm
I hope it was not really like that in real life if so I understand why the non-guilty defendant committed suicide because with such a fucking detective and failed, that should be sitting in prison he himself, about how he ruined the child live.
July 31st, 2014 at 12:01 pm
It was good,especially the gap dong copycat character,very convincing acting.a breath of fresh yet chilling air.
August 4th, 2014 at 12:01 am
Good drama
Good actor,,especially uri Lee Joon
Really good his acting,완전 최고 !!!
Ryu tae oh really cool ♥ ♥ ♥
