A bad mix of mystery, action and comedy

Honestly, I found the drama a bit disappointing, as its comedic potential was often overlooked in favor of mystery and action. While the comedic moments, particularly those featuring O Su-a or the NIS team, were entertaining, the focus on mystery and action felt misplaced. At first, there was a sweet romance between the two main characters, Seo Kang Joon and Jin Ki Joo. However, their relationship often felt like it was less important than the main plot. Some of the supporting characters weren't very interesting, and the antagonist didn't have much depth. The mystery quickly became predictable, which resulted in the later episodes being less engaging, culminating in a rushed and unsatisfying ending. The drama did have its brighter moments, despite these flaws. The dynamic between the male lead and his team provided some of the most enjoyable scenes, showcasing genuine friendship and teamwork. And when the balance of action and comedy was just right, it was genuinely entertaining. Ultimately, this drama demanded a certain suspension of disbelief and proved to be light, chaotic, and undemanding if you chose not to overthink it. However, it just didn’t deliver on its promise of a cohesive and engaging story.
