This is my first time ever wrote a review on imdb. The best crime and forensic series that I have ever watched, I can't fault anything. Every actors and actress are brilliant in their own roles. Storyline is unique. Very impressive Korean series, different than all other crime series (USA and Korea). I am looking forward to watch your season 3.

This is not an educational show, full accuracy should not be expected related to the forensic in the drama. It is for entertainment purposes, we should stop being rebukers. Personally I liked the show, and it is rare to see second season is better than the first one. Especially Dr. K made the show a lot more interesting. I haven't finished the 2nd season yet, but I'd love to see him in the show if there is 3rd one.

I don't know if it is a cultural thing but why do people shout a lot when agitated? Especially when they are questioned by the prosecutor, can they actually overreact that much?

Overall, it is a good show to binge watch.

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.

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.
