Encore toi

Better than Dexter, who was, in my opinion, too long, too exaggerate, too creepy. Better than the Mentalist - too long, too exaggerate, too bloody. 16 episodes were just perfect for me. I mean: when I realized who the little brother was, the script revealed it, too. When I realized who the serial killer was, the script revealed it, too. Not like: "Gosh, I'm so smart! How come the others didn't seen it!" Genial. But the plot goes on. So are the surprises. Worth to see it. The love-story is left on the background, and this was perfect for me. And the female police officer was very smart and very efficient. Her colleagues, too. All of them.

I liked it!

I loved this show. It had me at the edge of my seat whole time, very well written and acted out by the whole cast. Amazing character development. Just love the bromance. It got me emotional so many times. Interesting criminal minds, tough logic by detectives.

Those who like crime/suspense/thriller/psychological thriller genre this is a must watch.

The son of a murdered Police psychologist returns from America after many years away after receiving a strange card. He ends up helping a small police team which includes a female detective with her own tragedy which is linked to his. Together they investigate current murders but also find more information about the suspicious deaths of their parents, and even though their relationship starts frostily their common bond draws them together. It has a great cast including, Seo In-guk, Jang Na-ra, Choi Won-young and Park Bo-gum who along with the rest of the cast do a sterling job. The plot idea is interesting and draws you in with the different cases but sadly I have taken a point off as although I occasionally like an open ended ending this series just seems to fizzle out as the scriptwriters seemed to write themselves into a corner.

"I Remember You" is a really good series full of suspense and I got a shock almost every single time they found a killer or one was being stabbed. All the actors were amazing and their expression matched the scenes so well. It was also a lot of fun to try to guess the different cases in the series. However, I would liked to see a little more about Min and Lee Joon Yeong's relationship. But all in all a really good series and I'm so glad I found it even though it's been so many years since it got released.

Three Stars taken away for: 1. The bad ending - bogus and "wanna be different" ending which didn't stick well with the overall plot 2. Female lead's character - totally unnecessary and annoying 3. No chemistry between the main leads - Seo Inguk and Jang Nara had no chemistry together (occasionally she had chemistry with Park Bogum) however, we were forced to watch an irrelevant and out of place "romance" between the two leads that was never build up. The drama would have been much better without the romance approach.

Seven stars were added for: 1. The beautiful bromance between the two brothers. They were truly lovable and cute. I always loved their interactions on screen.

2. Park Bogum - Excellent performance by Bogummy. He stole the show.

3. Seo Inguk - He was hot but his character could have been an annoying know -it-all if it was someone else acted as David Lee. However, Inguk was charming and endearing as the always talking, boastful but extremely smart, blunt but endearing, strict but caring brother/ professor/ police consultant.

4. The crimes - Reminded me of The Mentalist and Sherlock Holmes. The drama took time (about one episode) to investigate the crime, and take another entire episode for the solving and aftermath of it. And the crimes were always wrapped up nicely.

5. The main villain - D. O was great! But the villain's character was that of a smart, empathetical serial killer.

6. The plot - The psychological aspect of the drama was well thought out and executed. The overall plot (minus the last episode) was very well done. There were obvious mistakes with consistency however, I loved how the brothers were given a prominent place. It was their story. Nothing else mattered.

7. Overall cinematography, fights, side characters - The drama was extraordinary, certainly was ahead of its time, had a great cast who did their job well. This star is for them.

Verdict: Watch it for the bromance and Park Bogum's convincing evil side and to witness the best hairdo and hotness of Seo Inguk.
