the title is like how it goes in two words.

for the fun of watching the neighbourhood watch in action, duh.

ok, good to know. thanks for replying.

is that one of those dramas in which a person gets a personality transplant bundled with some new organs? because I have no patience for those.

I believe something got lost in translation. Detective agencies in Korea are often called inquire agencies, and there's not far from inquiries to Hong Shim's and her good-for-nothing husband 'we'll do anything for you' enterprise. Unless this drama has some big surprises waiting for us, I guess that's it.

it watches like something from the 80s, I can't believe it's 2013 drama.

We are told that one of the main characters dies (cruelly). That person is so not dead though.

I don't see it as a bad ending at all. It's not illogical or forced. I'd love to see a season two someday, because it sets up for it perfectly, but if it'll never happen, I can live with what we've got.
I think some people may be disappointed, because it's not a happily ever after type of ending, but as I said, it's not an illogical solution for this particular story. The main three characters were gradually being left to their own devices, they were finding their own goals and ways. Their priorities were shifting. We leave them in an interesting place.

The worst part I'll put in a spoiler below. I'll try to be vague for the sake of not spoiling it completely.

What a wicked, sorrowful, tender thing. So much tension from start to finish! A narrative so neatly put together and so filler-free. Visuals so aesthetically pleasing! Where did that wonder come from and can I get more?

for me the gore overload feels just numbing from some point on, especially when the happenings keep falling into the same pattern. Which makes this drama something I wouldn't necessarily choose to watch in the dead of night, but the scare doesn't stay with me if you know what I mean. It's more jumpscary than hauntingly scary at this point.
Give it a go for the cheekbones, if nothing else :)

how would I know. How far are you and what stops from enjoying it enough to continue on your own?

Thanks for the clarification, now I got it. Sorry for the last reply that got clustered into one giant word, I was on mobile.
But I still don't think it's a perfect fit if it applies to the 2nd female lead here. He doesn't care for her, does he? So there's no jealousy involved.

what does the acronym stand for, if you don't mind me asking? urban dictionary turns inconclusive at best.

I don't know about the subs you were using, but in mine there were two time stamps actually. I'm not sure which one was a mistake (if any). First, just after the time jump the chyron read 16 years, and it was only later that they were talking something about 10 years passing. Does 16 make more sense?

@anastassia: wasn't she 12 then?

Cinderella and Four Knights had a very similar filter from what I remember.

fun fact: that's exactly the opposite of how trees work irl. They connect through mycorrhizal network and can feed and sustain the weaker one for years. It's not a see-saw.

just keep watching, it'll get clearer with time.

it's fun how this drama is aware of Master's Sun.

cute little no-brainer to watch when you're waiting for an episode of something else to get subbed.

big shoes to fill for What's Wrong With Secretary Kim of all things. Maybe it won't be another 'arrogant CEO's getting fixed by his secretary' type of drama after all?
