This sounds like a smart and totally obvious attempt to mash together two of the most popular prime time K-drama genres in recent years in the medical and legal crossover. MBC is scheduling Legal Investigation Man and Woman (literal title) for after Let’s Hold Hands and Watch the Sunset on Wed-Thurs. The drama is about a forensic pathologist (could be medical examiner or coroner) who takes pride in a thorough dissection to find out the root cause of death, pairing up with a dogged prosecutor seeking to investigate those who add to the crime. The drama deals with deaths which have no definitive answer and those who still seek to find the root cause. The drama will be from the PD of Ruler: Master of the Mask with a script from the screenwriter of Cinderella and Four Knights. For those who think this drama sounds interesting go check out the currently airing J-dorama Unnatural with Ishihara Satomi as a forensic pathologist, it’s really well done and I’m loving it.

C4K screen writer?? Ok, I'll pass then.
Ruler PD?? OK, I'll pass then.
lmao I love this thread.
Crappy writer and even more crappy PD. On top of it the most uninteresting premise I've seen in the past months. Thanks, but no thanks.
Hope all my favourites and even liked actor/actresses stay away from this.
Between this and NJH and Suzy's "melodrama", I'm not sure which is worse.
Ugh! Still recovering from the hot mess that was Ruler. Pace yourself PD!
It looks similar to another Ishihara Satomi's drama: Voice.
i think border and crisis from shun oguri more similar with unnatural drama. that all was great drama.
Thank you, @asta! I saw Border synopsis and it looks very interesting. It's on my watch lista now.
I thought they already slotted in that Suzy-Nam Joo-hyuk drama after Let's Hold Hands...
In either case, none of MBC's future primetime offerings, save perhaps for Jung Ha-yeon's comeback, looks promising.
