I really wanted to write about this drama. I haven't watch a lot of jdramas and I don't really know a lot. I found this by accindent as a BL drama. Also, I haven't read the manga (but I am planning to).
I really loved the drama. The story is really interesting, but not the most unique. I may not know about japanese dramas, but as a crime thriller lover, let me tell you we have seen this plot a lot. But it is used nicely here and with the bromance/BL element it is a unique combination. But, I agree with a lot of comments and reviews, in about the middle the drama started to lose its suspense and interest. And in a mystery/crime drama this is unacceptable. As for the bl/romance thing, even if I started the drama for this reason, I really don't care if it is more subtle or is just bromance. In this story works, because it is not the main plot. For me there is enough moments to understand how deeply Shiro and Ichiro care for one another.
It isn't a perfect drama by far, but the reason I wanted to write this review is more because I really enjoy japanese movies and dramas. Even the most low budget productions find a way to give a nice feeling. They have a really realistic texture and you can actually feel the people, the society, the real world. As oposed, for example, the overly glorified thai or chinese dramas, where you feel you are in an illustration and cannot connect with anything. What I mean, for example, in japanese productions the roads are dirty, the houses are messy or with bad lights, the public hospitals are a bit worn out, there is nothing perfect and these little details make you identify with the enviroment. Even the worst dramas have really good aesthetics. And this is the reason that lately I really enjoy japanese dramas and movies.
(P.S.: Is it really only me or the music theme for the sadder scenes (the one that starts with a beat) has really similar beat with Outro: Tear of BTS? Not shading anything and I don't want to start anything, just my observation. Had any fellow ARMY the same feeling?)
