My opinion is that season 2 is far better than season 1. After finishing season 1, i was not even going to watch season 2. However, since it gets harder to find something to watch after a year of quarantine, i gave it a chance and i really loved it. Season 2 is much more suspenseful, and the dose of unfunny comedy elements is lower. I hope to see a new toxicologist in the next season who does not speak even a word in English.

The others are dumb.

In real world, detectives and prosecutors are not dumb. Hence, I couldn't buy the main plot.

Baek-bum and Stellar were attractive. (Though Baek has a character too harsh.) On the contrary, Cha-soo-ho, Kang-hyun, and Eun-sol were poor. That's not because they'd performed a poor acting. But, that's because the writer made them dumbs.

I hope the writer could consider it in the next season. EOR.

I lower my rating to 8 since I did not like the season 2 that much. I will wait for season 3 to finalize the review.

Every actor in this series acts over the top. Everything is an absolute drama, even eating pork skin (apparently its a Korean delicacy, pork scratching don't do much for me). But the story lines are addictive as is the main forensic pathologist Dr. Baek Beom. I haven't quite got to season 2 yet but apparently the English speaking head of toxicology is a different person in season 2. The woman in season 1 was ridiculously annoying if stunning to look at.

I will definitely watch season 2 and hopefully the overacting is toned down a little bit. One of the better Korean dramas but not the best.

(edit) I've now watched season 2 and the overacting is toned down a little. The replacement for the English speaking head of toxicology is just as annoying as the original but not as pretty. The storylines were probably better than season 1 so that's a good thing.

Its just a pity that the two lead characters didn't evolve, they remain the same throughout the two seasons. Baek Beom (pathologist) remains grumpy, and Eun Sol (prosecutor) remains completely useless at her job.

A new character in season 2 is Doctor Jang Chul, now this character has a great storyline and the actor (Min-woo No) does an excellent job. Its a pity its basically all over and done in two episodes. He does carry on throughout the series but the storyline reduces somewhat.

All in all a very good K-drama to while away the time.

You must watch this drama, it has absolutely unique plot, used accessories such as body parts, "corpses" are like real ones. all actor specially who played as Dr.Baek are charismatic, they all can impress all the feellings every characters perfectly. this drama keeps you on your toes from the beginning and always surprises you with unexpected ending.
