A wonder detective drama with 0% vulgarity and 100% entertainment!!

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.

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.

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.

I have watched a japanese, US drama on forensic doctor too. This korean made drama is the best. Seeing it do I know that actually the room for a forensic doctor to examine the dead bodies does not allow entrance of nonrelated staff or police. You must look at the examination process through a glass wall outside the examin room. Everything in the drama is so authentic.

The plot of each case is terrific too, attracting you to follow till the end. Male lead is not a handsome oppa, but a black skin nasty middle aged man. His character and appearance makes this drama so atypical to normal kdrama.

All in all, a drama that is seriously produced to reflect the actual work of a forensic doctor.
