    Yet another stupid k-drama with incoherrent logic

    Typical stupid k-drama, they explicitly told you what kind of character by exposition or narration (as a wise, very old or smart guy), but the character itself acting way out of it.

    I know this is just a fiction movie but they should have their own logic, shouldn't they? Too much inconsistencies, I couldn't get what kind of logic to follow.

    For example, when the heiress in hospitall after 128 days kidnapped, the whole world said to curiously follow her (condition), but the movie instead shows us that she's always completely alone unprotected unmonitored all the time in their room never get checked, even when she got shocked or in need, nobody ever come or take care.

    This girl with supernatural gift said that she's been mocked and kicked out by entire life because people afraid by or misunderstood her ability, yet nobody around her, except her father, seemed to knew it; one (male lead) refused to believe it even when she recite exactly what happen to the murderer with 100% expected result (the murderer switched), the other people simply ignore it.

    And why the hell they used the stupid timer-bomb for dramatic purpose, it's not that detention time requires exact accuracy to the second, that just dumb.

    I just finished 2 episodes, I see direction of this drama is quite good, particularly in staging and costums / properties; acting also pretty well (note:overacting for drama genre is acceptable). But the plot and movie logic is cringe-worthy at best.
