I started this show unsure if I would like it, but the plot is so devious and unusual, that it makes me giggle. The comedy is fresh, not too zany, but strikes the right balance. It feels a bit like a slice of life story with characters (including supporting characters) that by episode 3, you start to care about. The female lead has a funny likeable energy, as well as the male lead, Lee Min Ki. I've seen him in a few kdramas, but the most memorable role for me was his role in, "Because This is My First Life," which is one of my favorites. I also saw him in Monster where he played a vicious serial killer who was so scary I didn't realize it was the same actor, which speaks to his range and acting abilities. In "Because This is My First Life", he is very restrained. His character in this role he is so different and relaxed. Oh and I also saw him in "The Beauty Inside" as the romantic lead, which is absolutely worth watching. I've seen the heroine in something else but I will have to put my finger on what it was, but I do like her.
This story, with its weirdness could have easily failed, but because of the lead actress and actor's acting abilities, the story shines and feels fun. Great job all around with the warm supporting cast.
The story left me suspecting everyone as the potential serial killer but I was not disappointed with who it turned out to be since I had suspected him all along on and off.
At times I felt like they killed off characters who should not have been killed off. So that was a disappointment. My only real complaint is that the last episode was completely nonsensical in every sense of the word and if the actors were not so charming they would not have been able to pull it off. The plot and the writing in the last episode was abysmal and all over the place. I could not believe how bad the last episode was. They managed to resolve the serial killing about 3/4 ths into the episode but there were so many things that was nonsensical about how the police officers and the violent crime division handled finding the killer that that I can no longer suspend disbelief. Still, in all it is a fun show that really made me laugh so I still enjoyed it overall.
