This is exactly the kind of cheesy, campy, adventure/mystery comedy I was looking for! Don't know why thriller is listed as a genre when nothing from the initial promotions to the final trailers said anything about the drama being like that. As for everyone who keeps asking about the romance, just watch the first episode. This has the fastest moving romantic line I've seen in dramaland lately.
What a spectacular start! I am hooked. This ragtag team of idiots will be a riot to watch. Can't wait to see what happens next. PS. The twenty people who rated this after the first episode, seriously what are you doing? xD
Episode 7 has to be the most blatant filler episode I've seen in dramaland lately, with everything of importance being crammed into the final ten minutes. Maybe it's just me, but the writing for this episode in particular felt rather subpar, given the fact that all episodes so far were just stepping up their game. At least the preview for episode 8 looks promising, can't wait to see what happens next!
its a mystery. there is no romance so far. if you're talking about the main couple, they act like a normal married…
There actually isn't any romance at all so far. The point of romance is to show progression not aversion. All the so called romantic scenes so far were present to highlight exactly where and how our characters (namely Woo Sung) are going wrong. Every scene he feels an attraction to someone or acts on his impulses is a red flag for him and the audience, this is something that shouldn't be happening. Of course, the execution is often rather over the top but that's kinda the point of this drama.
I love love love the direction this is going in with its subtle commentary through some very over the top gestures. I would hate for this to get bogged down by any kind of romance unless that serves to further the plot. I want Yeo Joo to continue being the badass she is and as of now (unpopular opinion) I really don't want anyone to end up with anybody else (unless it's the detective duo, they're hilarious together.) All characters are doing excellently on their own and as kdrama watching experience goes, romance almost always comes at the price of character development, so I would rather not have any of it.
she had a main role in designated survivor! i highly recommend this drama, she did a phenomenal job and her character…
I have watched Designated Survivor and I loved every bit of her character, but that is one single (not even a proper lead role because the cast is an ensemble) role when she has been active for almost ten years and has proven time and again how great of an actress she is. It's just disappointing!
Immense thank you for that double special shout-out! It is an honor to be included in the same list as some of MDL's greatest contributors!
I am in awe of how incredibly this little series of articles turned out, from the initial planning stages to this polished, finished product. I wish you all the best for your future writing ventures here on MDL and hope you continue writing for a while to come! Ganbatte! Hwaiting! and Jiayou!
Episode 4 was the best to date! This keeps getting better as the plot thickens. Every character, major and minor has so much to offer it's truly astounding and so much fun.

Gong Hye Won is the Goo Chan Sung of Awaken except not as likeable lol.
Hoping this promising momentum stays till the end!
