Criminally Good, Completely Addictive

do you like rom coms? WATCH IT!! If you like devoted male leads, found family, comedy that actually lands you'll love this. I honestly cannot believe it took me this long to watch it. The entire time I was watching, I kept thinking about how fun it’s going to be to rewatch this in a few years when I’ve forgotten everything. That’s how good it is.

This drama completely surprised me. It’s well written, well paced, funny, emotional, and incredibly satisfying. Every character makes sense, every conflict feels earned, and instead of dragging things out with unnecessary breakups, it keeps introducing fresh problems that actually help the characters grow. I fell more in love with it as it went on, which rarely happens for me.

LIKES:

-The male lead. Period. Kind, gentle, devoted, emotionally steady, and SO lovable. Watching him slowly heal was my favorite part of the entire drama.

-The female lead is sweet, understanding, and refreshing. She communicates, apologizes when needed, and never treats him poorly.

-Their romance felt natural and sincere.

-Such a unique concept — former thugs becoming good people and running a company, done in a way that actually works.

-The ML fits his role perfectly. If anyone asks who should be cast as a CEO again, it’s him.

-Genuinely funny. I laughed out loud almost every episode.

-Conflicts get resolved in ways that make sense instead of dragging out pointless breakups.

-Great character development across the board. I loved learning everyone’s backstory.

-No ugly love triangle nonsense. Characters come together instead of turning evil.

-Every time I thought it would become predictable, it proved me wrong.

-By episodes 11–15, I loved it even more than I did at the start.


DISLIKES:

-The second male lead deserved a love interest. He grew so much by the end, and I really wish he had gotten someone.


This is a 10/10 for me, easily. One of my favorite romances I’ve watched in a long time. It’s funny, heartfelt, healing, and incredibly rewatchable. The devotion, the growth, the warmth — everything worked. I genuinely regret not watching this when it first came out in 2024, because this is exactly the kind of drama I’m always looking for.

If you love soft, devoted male leads and romances that make you feel safe and happy, do not skip this one.
