NiteWalker Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 not a bad watch....even though the cases are a little over everywhere....i like how there is no girl in disguise as a boy to get into the employment with the government to be a coroner, chemistry in between the cast is soft.....nothing explosive and i do not mind it...i like the pacing so far.... @Tofu @SilverMoonTea @Alice Wonderland @40somethingahjumma u guys might want to consider? hahaha....its not a very long episodes just around 30-35mins per episodes after all 2 1 Artist Photo Collections Link to comment

Tofu Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Ok, I checked out the first two episodes and it was actually pretty good. I hope that it continues on at this pace because if it does, it's definitely one of the better detective costume dramas that I've seen. 2 Link to comment

40somethingahjumma Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Started watching this today and before I knew it I’m now on Episode 10. It’s very decent and vaguely reminds me of Miss Truth. Set around the same period? The male lead looks a bit like Toby Li as well. This is my kind of show. Smart leads and the focus is on the job not the romance. Happy there’s no love triangle in sight. My curiosity about Chu Chu’s parentage has been piqued. 1 1 Currently Watching: Imperfect Victim, The Uncanny Counter S2, My Dearest, Fake It Till You Make It, One Piece My Drama Blog "Love is not an affectionate feeling but a steady wish for the loved person's good as far as it can be obtained." -- CS Lewis.

40somethingahjumma Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I'm really really fond of this show. So fond that I'm rewatching all the available episodes. It is so good to be able to have a decent detective show to sink one's teeth into. There are no big names here but the script is excellent and the cast does well. On one level Chu Chu is simple-minded and naive but she's brilliant as a coroner and she's very practically minded. She even built a chicken coop overnight in Prince An's residential area. It's not too surprising that the bookish Jinyu is attracted to her despite all his suspicions because she's so straightforward and enthusiastic. The refreshing thing is that as a whole there are so many intelligent people in one space. The good guys, the bad ones, the ones we're not sure about... all are fascinating. I'm even warming up to the romance which I was initially ambivalent about. There's not a lot of heat but they've had some cute moments especially during the reenactments. Of course now that Jinyu has clearly fallen for Chu Chu things will escalate in that department and he will not only have to put his life on the line but his reputation as well as family concerns. More of this on my blog: https://40somethingahjumma.substack.com/p/the-imperial-coroner-2021 This is a show I highly recommend. 1 1 Currently Watching: Imperfect Victim, The Uncanny Counter S2, My Dearest, Fake It Till You Make It, One Piece My Drama Blog "Love is not an affectionate feeling but a steady wish for the loved person's good as far as it can be obtained." -- CS Lewis.

40somethingahjumma Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) A dump of 12 episodes was made yesterday. A very pleasant surprise. I finished them all yesterday and rewatched them today. They've finally ramped up the Qianzhou storyline and the romance of course. A number of cute scenes involving the leads. Here are some thoughts on the leads... Spoiler https://40somethingahjumma.substack.com/p/the-imperial-coroner-2021-the-prince This is undoubtedly one of the best detective shows all year. No question about it. The writing is top-notch.
