Originally Hwang Jung Eum was offered the lead role, but she declined. Sketch reunites Jung Ji Hoon and Lee Dong Gun who worked together 15 years ago on the drama Sang Doo! Let's Go to School.
The first script reading was held at the JTBC building in Sangam in Seoul in March 2018.

What I mainly loved about the soundtrack for Sketch is that it followed the dramas theme and had darker sounding songs.
SunBee - 옅은 (Faded)
Damon - Sailing
When Detective Kang Dong Soo's fiance is killed mysteriously, he works with a female detective who can see 3 days into the future to find out who killed his fiance. She sketches what she sees, and with her sketch, the investigative team begins to set out to capture the murderer. Meanwhile, Kim Do Jin is a former Special Forces member plotting to avenge the death of his pregnant wife.
I'm not sure what I thought this drama would be like, but I can honestly say that I wouldn't have guessed anything that happened.
This is my first Korean drama with Jung Ji Hoon but 2nd drama with him overall and I have to say that I preferred his acting in Sketch than I did in Diamond Lover, I also felt a lot more comfortable actually hearing his voice and acting style. At times I did get a little annoyed with his character as he did put his own vendetta before the safety and request of others but, Ji Hoon played his role really well.
This is my 2nd drama with Lee Sun Bin, my first actually being my first ever drama Missing 9, I remember liking Sun Bin's character in Missing 9 because she's really pretty but with Sketch I think her acting got to shine through more as her character was more bad ass compared her character in Missing 9. Her character is really headstrong and independent, while also still harbouring fear and hatred for her past, which means at times she headed in alone even when knowing how much danger she was in. I'd happily watch Sun Bin in more bad ass leading lady roles than a more selfish and beauty based role.
I think Lee Dong Gun did amazing as his character, you spend most of the drama wanting his downfall for the crimes he's committing, while trying to avenge the death of his pregnant wife, but because of how cold he is towards others especially Kang Dong Soo, you forget about his vulnerability from losing the main reason he wanted to live his life.
You definitely see the two sides of dealing with grief when it comes to being helped with positivity and negativity, Kang Dong Soo has Yoo Shi Hyun, Moon Jae Hyun and Oh Young Shim, that helps him see that there is always someone to turn to if you need a friend and ease the weight on his shoulders and heart, while Kim Do Jin's hate and need for revenge is manipulated by Jang Tae Joon and X to get to the top to the Elder and stop his/her reign of terror to keep hidden.
I think all the cast bounced off one another really well, they had good chemistry and really made you believe in what they were saying. I think the plot was amazing, it definitely took turns that I wasn't expecting, I don't think I've ever watched a drama that has had scenes that literally made my jaw drop like Sketch did. I definitely would love a second season to see how the characters grow after the events of season 1, I think Sketch would survive a second season, I think some dramas don't have a potential to keep the story going past the first season but I do think Sketch is one of those dramas that could have a few seasons, as it seems that there is plenty of stories that could come from the concept of the show. I just hope that if a new season was brought out that Lee Sun Bin and Jung Ji Hoon would reprise their roles as the leads.
I would definitely love to watch more crime dramas like Sketch and I do have a couple on both Netflix and Viki in my list to watch, so I can't wait to get stuck into them and see how they compare.
