Synopsis

When Homicide Detective Kang Oh Soo hit a dead end in his investigation of two seemly unrelated murders, except for the Tarot cards left behind at both crime scenes, he sought help from Seo Hae In, a woman with Token-object reading ability. She revealed that the killers were different in each murder, but the victims were chosen for their connection to a death of a high school boy. Later, the cases proved to have one more thing in common: the suspects have the same defense attorney, Oh Seung Ha.

Seung Ha's defense for his clients severely shaken Oh Soo’s conviction to catch the Tarot Card mastermind. Oh Soo was reminded that years ago he had killed a high school classmate in a fight. He was acquitted of all charges and began his life anew. Now, someone has came back to revenge the boy’s wrongful death by killing those who got him off.

Been watching this for 1 and half years already (I am no good with Korean doramas =[ wink
But at the moment I am hooked so hopefully I will nearly finish it soon! =D
I watched it until about epispde 8 and then I left it for like a year, then watched 2 more episodes and now I'm back on it xD


I think both the Detective and the Lawyer are HOT!

But the lawyer annoyed me in episode 11 when he wouldn't grab her hand :'(

Dorama Love <3





Finally finished it after two years!! xD

The reason it took me so long was because I dislike Korean doramas anyway; I feel they go on for FAR too long and have no point in half of the episodes and could quite easily make it shorter and more entertaining.

On the positives: Love the characters, loved the acting, I finally resumes and watched the last 12episodes after leaving it for more than 1 year and I was addicted to it the second time around. The music is great! The camera angles are great! =D People have said that the guy who plays Oh Seung Ha was a bad actor and only chosen for his looks; I COMPLETELY disagree; his looks give his character the charm but his acting and the way he portrays his character (especially in the last few episodes) is amazing! One note I did hate was the no matter how much you love the characters, you want to hate them at the same time because they are all flawed and annoying at one point and (it may just be me) you want them sooo badly to have a good relationship (especially Oh Seung Ha and (the girl =S) and Oh Soo and (the girl)) but it breaks you heart knowing that only one side can have the good relationship because it's practically a love triangle =[

The ending... I had mixed thoughts on how it would end. I thought he'd either run away or turn himself in but when the end unfolded (for his incident at the car which at first I wasn't too happy about) I thought it was a very satisfying ending (definately) and really rounded the drama off nicely.

So yeah, I recommend this drama if you love to use your mind (maybe I reason why I disliked it at first because I don't if it's too confusing xD) and if you love complicated relationships and characters who are flawed and everything ^_^
