heartwarming , extremely funny but nothing special ....

although this drama's plot is quite cliche yet it keeps you watching , almost all of the cases were heartwarming especially when he helped those wronged souls who couldn't get the justice they deserve after their death , the drama was great on so many levels yet nothing was special about it even when they tried to give it some depth it was rushed multiple times.

the case with the will where the wife forged her husband's will to give some shares of the company to her friend's son it really annoyed me although that friend helped in building their company , the wife had to right to forge her husband's will as she could have discussed it with her son and when we get to know it was out of guilt because she caused her friend's arrest back then as a north korean spy it even became more annoying although that friend turned out to be alive and the government were keeping an eye on her as they suspected her to spy it didn't make it better for me .

Do gyeong's is the most characterless person I have ever seen , like what was he doing he admired na hyeon and he let the gang attack her and ML all for the recorder his father wanted , I mean she could have been killed , and when he got the recorder he didn't tell his father , why exactly ? he didn't trust his father or wanted to held it as a leverage ? not a smart character and a very indecisive one .

usually any drama would have a main antagonist , so who was the main antagonist here was Do gyeong or his father ? from the events I guess it was the father , he even didn't get that much screen time , for me either Do gyeong or his father were both weak antagonist .

although the romance was barely there , i glad they didn't force it.

the last case with shin gi jung , was quite rushed , at first I was frustrated like how ML didn't trust his father and wanted to let him go without trying to know the truth I mean he should know the man who raised him better than anyone , and when he didn't remember how he died and that byeong il injected him with drugs before his death didn't make sense as he clearly saw him before he died , I mean this was supposed to be the biggest case in all of this , the great finale yet it ended up being rushed and unsatisfying.

overall a quite funny and heartwarming drama with a lot of wasted potential .
