Great gem! Worth the watch

This drama is entertaining, mix of fun, drama and suspense. I don't mind that there's no romance, there are several scenes/eps that thugs the heart and some cutesy scenes. This drama has great rewatch value. If you are looking for something unique, entertaining redemption type of drama, then this is for you. I closely watched per scene and never skipped because I am invested in the story. Great storytelling. Great chemistry among the leads. I truly look forward to season 2.

Amazing Trio!

Who'd have thought we needed a combo of parole office, detective and loan shark?!

I mean the storyline isn't that new, especially if you've watched a lot of similar show- you kinda expect the same pattern of corruption, media manipulation, etc. However, the EXECUTION is sooo refreshing.

As a start, I don't even know parole examiner exists- so it's a nice introduction to learn about new character. And a female loan shark boss- oh hell yea! This is probably one of the most iconic role Baek Ji Won has played! She totally nailed it! I especially love the ending, especially for Hwa Ran

The show is entertaining, funny, and thrilling all at same time! Watch the trailer, or maybe 1st 10 mins of episode 1 and judge it for yourself instead of taking my words or MDL rating. Have fun!

A prison guard, he became a lawyer and eventually a parole examiner. He wants revenge for his chief who was unfairly accused and detained. He achieves this goal with the help of 2 women. Excellent alliance with Ms. Choi Hwa Ran, a character that I really liked.
I didn't know that there was such a commission that considered the release of certain prisoners. Unfortunately there too with judges who give in to corruption.
I found the case of the girl who had the child in prison particularly touching.

Really great and underrated!

I honestly enjoyed this so much ! The acting was amazing, all the characters were amazing and well written, loved how all three female leads were strong in their own ways 🤌🏻 a very wholesome and satisfying ending and had many scenes which had me and my mum on the edge of our seat! I hope they do make a season two for it as I'd be totally up for watching that ♡

perfect for you if you want to wach something easy

If you are looking for a nice watch with a typical villain and a happy resolution to the plot, this is the drama for you. It is easy to watch, with a great team that tried to fight the bad guys. My favorite part was how they became close, like a family. Do not expect too much; just enjoy the ride.

The story is nice and easy to follow, with great team-building. For me, twelve episodes was too much, as bored towards the end.

Overall it's an okay drama—not great, not bad.
