Yay! A new Seo In Guk drama! And it’s even a crime drama (my favourite!). I’m glad to say that the show has gotten off to a good start. If this drama is a scammer, then I’ve already taken its bait.

The Men’s Cheerful Drama

I thought this interview from Nylon magazine was a very insightful one for a new fan like me and I like his mindset and personality. I didn’t see any English translation of this so I tried my best to do one. Do note that the interview contains spoilers of the drama for those who haven’t watched it yet.

Detectives, psychopaths, monsters and brains, brains, brains! The result of this formula? 15 + alpha. Because there’s no cleverer way to say “I love you”.
