Honest Review
such a stressful unrealistic BS action drama. the action scenes choreography was great, but story is so dragging. started off ok, but got boring. i love the actors, but the direction/production of their characters are so poor. all fight and no brains. i hated the villain. but i hate the main characters more having no common sense specially if they are considered "detectives". no exit plans. imagine going into fight with no backup plan at all. just plain stupid courage makes them just over-acting actors. i just wanted it to be done.Was this review helpful to you?

not everyone's cup of tea
It wouldve been a good series except it wasnt (for me). not a hater because i looked forward to watching this since its hyped. the story started slow. i had to endure 2 whole episodes just so it could get me going but ended up putting it in 1.25 speed then 1.5. i got tired of all the cooking show down (i think the only best one was with the Ming cooks) and unending side comments of villains but u know theyre just gonna turn around and like her dishes. Romantic moments are so predictable. cant directors think of anything new?! i hated Yoona's character being winny and loud to the point that its not realistic for someone who got lost in another timeline. theyre trying so hard for her character to be funny but its just so frustrating. The last 2 episodes are dragging and unrealistic. imagine killing each other then sit down together to talk about things. this is the 2nd time i've watched a series in 1.5 speed, even pushing the fast forward button more than 30x. i'd just give the acting a higher rating specially Lee ChaMin. no hate for the actors/actresses, but its just how the series was directed. if directors want a series portraying something light and funny (where Yoona's character fit) then stick to that even if its Joseon era setting - no killings, no heavy drama or revenge or anything, but if its something a bit more realistic, then it shouldve been like that where all the historical dramas fit. its just like directors couldnt make up their minds and tried to throw in everything in it but didnt work.Was this review helpful to you?
The Unexpected Good One
i wasnt expecting anything from this series but turned out it was a good one. i initially planned on just making this just as a white noise during work or doing something else, but this series ended up getting my attention!! it was funny and consistent with its story line. the twist at the end was good! i cant help but cry in the end. it was a good cry! the actors/actresses are great as well. story plot was unpredictable which is my cup of tea. there are romantic moments but not as cringy as other dramas which is good!Was this review helpful to you?
Made to make you laugh
this is such a good vibe to watch. its made for you to laugh at it hence the over-acting unrealistic expressions, like you're watching a cartoon or an anime. at first, i thought it would be really cringy, but i enjoyed it as the series goes. i also love that despite "losing" some of the characters, it wasnt as sad or as stressful as i thought it would be. another thing is, i couldnt imagine at first how JunYoung would act in a romcom, since he always play villain roles in the past kdramas that i have watched, but he is such a good actor!! love the ending as well. it was satisfying.Was this review helpful to you?
