Another thing I loved was Dong Ha in one of his very few good guy roles. He plays psychopaths so well that he rarely gets to play a positive role which is a real shame because he truly shines here as the spoiled brat who becomes a good, decent man and a loving son. So lovely.
I wish the series was a bit shorter - 20 eps were too long, IMO, so the middle part dragged a bit and the good guys suffered almost too many setbacks - but that’s my only complaint. There’s no romance in this, it’s all about friendship, how to be a decent person and how to stand up for what’s right. And it’s also quite hilarious. Nam Goong Min is truly in his element here.

It's so good!
A wonderful comedy that is elevated by its cast in every way. It was such a fun experience. So glad I had the time to rewatch it.The only thing holding it back was that some of the villians are so dumb. No one dies in the show despite the fact that there are multiple assassination attempts, yeah they're that stupid.
Honestly that just adds to the humor!
The music, cast, and plot are all perfectly balanced. It's nearly perfect. I wish a little more attention was paid to the romance, but I'm glad I didn't have to sit through another love triangle.

There's no romance here of note at all, maybe a couple of whispers in the background but if you're looking for Romance that's not the reason to watch. If you're looking for a fun story, fun characters, laughing moments in every episodes but at the same time some serious character development (it's always nice to see bad characters course correcting) then you'll enjoy this one.
Music was fun and bouncy to go with the general styling of the show.
After Sung-Ryong, I think Ga-Eun - who is an undercover prosecution detective - was probably my next favourite character and was glad they made her a main role and not relegated to a support role. Her character was fun to watch.
The comedy is good and easy, it doesn't stray into slapstick at all and generally makes use of character comedy, some funny as heck cringe comedy and plenty of insults thrown around to wind each other up.
Brilliant, definitely a good antidote to a dose of too many romance dramas to lighten the mind with some laughs.

The drama that got my parents hooked to kdrama
I just finished watching it nd am full of emotions so lets share my feelings nd thoughts . So anyone who is thinking to drop this drama ,, noooooo don’t b like me cz i hv been doing the same but guess what this was a jewel ? a biggg jewel. This drama is first one that i watched with me parents nd siblings, nd now they r slapping me for not showing them this masterpiece before. 1. The storyline is good ***. Totally a family oriented comedy sitcom (BR a cherry on top). it shiws u how the big groups in korea work nd i learnt so much about all the buisness stuff and corruption nd how hierarchy in work has people bound to obey their seniors even beingon right track . It deals with heavy aspects nd each episode is consistent and plot develops smoothly. 2. Acting was just superb , top notch. U cant help but end up liking each character . It shows a cute side of everyone yes even some villains if u watch u will know. Each actors was perfect for their role.nd our main leads were unmatchable with their intelligence nd were pro in their field . Our ML TQpsycho has never ending collection of facial expressions. Nd his bunsan swag style was epic. Throughout the story he kept making us laugh until we had joker ? smile lines. Our ML glutinous sociopath had aggressive feisty attitude always for more power. But he looked so hot in that attitude . Story shows how like give u accident to turn good from bad as happened with our male leads. 3. Romnce betweenFl nd Ml was to zero .ah but hate/love Bromance was soooo good that even my little brother kept shipping our mr.righteous nd mr prosecutor , side character also hd very cute romantic moments. _Special notice- R u sad? Just watch this drama. * R u happy? Just watch this. *. R u tired? Just watch this. wanna die happily /no regret? Just watch thisWas this review helpful to you?

Just go for it !
This is one of the must watch Kdramas !! I was a little skeptical on picking it up , but wanted to give it a try after watching lot of junho and seonho dramas ! Though they both did a good job here , but the highlight was definitely manager Kim !I have deducted 1 point only coz in the middle the drama became quite too technical for a non-techie to understand , but that lasted for 2-3 episodes only , and i think that was required to give the a build up ! There is dramatic and comedic ending to each and every episode which makes it even more hilarious !
Namkoong Min did an awesome job , as a crazy and righteous manager ! He was too cool to handle ! His bromance with GM and seo yul both were very cute ! The way he irritates seo yul is just beyond adorable everytime !
Junho was a rookie here ! Though he did a good job with all those evil expressions , he dint came across natural to me . I felt he was putting too much of an effort at some places , at others he was cute as usual ! Going frwrd I really feel negative roles would suit him better !
FL had hardly any good scenes , the detective was better than her !

Surprised.
I was kind of worried going into this show because honestly I was worried about there not being a romance tag. I think so for this drama it worked out really well. There was a lot going on and it and to have to also sort through an emotional relationship struggle I think would have been too much. Personally, I would have liked if they had wrapped the romance up a little bit better in the last episode, because for me it leaves me wondering where the MLs are. I can't really tell if the deputy chief is leaning towards the prosecutor or the chief. All the support relationships were explained, and so that would be my only "complaint" if you could call it one. The show left me laughing hard and was definitely worh it, but a big risk got me a big reward.Was this review helpful to you?
I'm trying hard not to drop it only because of the MALE lead. He has great acting skills.. which has keep en me to further watch it.
Now back to it, like out of know where the FM is super clingy to the hero n always nagging, besides that she has no respect for the hero. Yeah, she has her perspective that he maybe a conman but still u must have respect for your elder staff. She is being like she is the chief.
Ok, now to the next point. The prosecutor just by looking at the FM got a crush on her. COME ON, yeah its just a drama but there should have been a little bit of sense of reality in it too. He has no reason to like her, like some quality, unique character anything.
HUFFF, okey got some burden off my chest. Will

Если бы мне пару месяцев назад сказали, что я прибалдею от сериала про финансовое мошенничество в особо крупных размерах и не совсем "моего" актера Нам Гун Мина (это всё от проклятия первой "злой роли" ), я б никогда не поверила бы. Но это произошло, и теперь я сижу с глупой улыбкой во весь рот и с некоторой грустью,что больше не увижу пару раз в неделю неутомимого шило в попе а-ля шеф Ким на работе и вне ее. Сюжет пересказывать тут бесполезно, тут надо видеть всю эту корпорацию, серые и белые воротнички, пафос, эгоизм, долбоёбство начальников всяких калибров и тут же дружбу, взаимопомощь и выручку тех, которые всегда остаются людьми, на какой бы ступени социальной лестницы они не стояли. В целом посыл прост как доска - просто надо оставаться человеком и не идти на сделку с самим собой, тогда, если и не получится всё, но ты сможешь прожить жизнь правильно.

Totalmente encantada !
Totalmente encantada!! Esta é daquelas séries que voce começa despretenciosamente e, quando se dá conta, não consegue mais parar de assistir. A dinâmica perfeita entre os protagonistas é divertidíssima e adorável. Os personagens secundários são muito bons e com importância na trama. Foi uma surpresa refrescante. Dei muitas risadas e me apaixonei pelo Chefe Kim. Sem romances e cenas melodramáticas, ela é totalmente leve e bem feita, perfeita para desestressar. Fiquei com gostinho de quero mais.... Confira!!!!Was this review helpful to you?
Ils sont mauvais tous les deux mais ont chacun encore du bon en eux !
Alors ce drama sort totalement de l’ordinaire : je dirai que c’est un drama « à l’envers » Le héros est un truand financier, sympathique peut-être mais truand quand même, que des circonstances tout à fait extérieures à sa volonté vont amener à défendre le droit et la justice, alors que son alter ego est au départ du côté de la loi et de la justice mais il décide de passer du côté obscur et devient un voyou, mais je crois qu’il y a encore du bon en lui parce que j’aime cet acteur depuis son rôle dans « Memory ».L’affrontement de ces deux hommes nous donne une bromance à l’envers, car ils semblent se détester, mais tout les ramène l’un vers l’autre et le scénariste a su par des dialogues brillants et drôles créer un lien entre eux, autre que la simple opposition gentil/méchant ! Les autres rôles masculins sont très bons aussi, particulièrement les collègues de Sung Ryong et surtout le Directeur du Bureau Nam Ho
Les personnages féminins sont très intéressants, drôles, sérieux ou fantaisistes, ou de drolatiques caricatures, comme la chef du département d’Ethique !
Il y a certainement de l’affection entre les personnages, de l’amitié, je ne vois pas trop d’amour pour le moment, peut-être un début mais ce drama est si hors norme, que, qui sait ? Le couple final ne sera peut-être pas celui auquel on s’attend ! ou il n'y en aura peut-être même pas !
Et bien sûr il y a Namgung Min !!!
Alors lui c’est un festival ! Dommage qu’il n’ait pas (encore) figuré dans mes chouchous parce que question « look expressif », j’étais servie !! Il a un talent comique extraordinaire, mais pas que ! Surtout quand il fait face à Lee Joon Ho son ennemi particulier ! Et son personnage est particulièrement bien écrit, car s’il se trouve presque par hasard du côté du bon droit, sa vraie nature peu scrupuleuse reste bien présente et il s’en sert sans vergogne pour arriver à ses fins !
Il reste encore des épisodes (3 ou 7 suivant les sources) mais j’espère vraiment que la fin ne sera pas décevante !
je reviendrai ici compléter mon commentaire, soit pour maudire les scénaristes, soit pour les encenser !! à eux de voir et de faire attention aux représailles ! !!
Comme promis je viens ajouter un codicille à ma présentation : les scénaristes peuvent dormir tranquille, il n'y aura pas de représailles, la fin du drama est parfaite, heureuse sans "happy ending", drôle mais rigoureuse et juste psychologiquement, l'horrible chairman est toujours horrible, malgré les tentatives de son fils (joli rôle que celui-là !! )pour lui faire prendre conscience de ses fautes, pas de repentance mélodramatique !
Mais je pense de plus en plus que les dramas servent d'exutoire aux Coréens contre la corruption qui règne en maîtresse chez eux ! Parce que c'est quand même le moteur principal des dramas qui font un tant soit peu réfléchir ! En tous cas si vous aimez les bromances bien faites, bien interprétées pleine d'humour et d'amitié avec une bonne dose d'antagonisme à la testostérone, je vous recommande ce drama chaleureusement ! Il fera sans conteste partie du comité restreint de mes dramas à voir et à revoir !!!

Une perle
Drama drôle et délirant ! Un des meilleurs drama que j'ai pu voir, je l'ai adoré ce drama !L’histoire nous fait suivre un comptable qui s’occupe des comptes de gangsters. Il réussit finalement à intégrer le poste de chef des comptables dans le grand conglomérat TQ. Le drama n'a pas de pause, les événements s’enchaînent et rivalisent avec les situations parfois délirantes.
Le personnage du Chef Kim est magique, je n’ai jamais autant rit devant un drama. Il évolue tout le long du drama, au sein de l’entreprise et dans sa relation avec les autres personnages.
Les acteurs sont parfaits en particulier Nam Goong Min et Lee Jun Ho. Pour conclure, c’est un drama drôle et au scénario palpitant.
Pour une fois la romance ne tient pas le rôle principal et n’enlève aucun charme à l’histoire…

Me ha gustado muchísimo y me he divertido mucho viéndola
El personaje de Nam Goong Min es una fantasía y en estos tiempos que corren una serie como esta es sin duda una buena idea.
Tiene buen argumento, mucha comedia y el punto de drama que le añade profundidad a la trama
La OST en general no es muy allá, pero en ocasiones escogen canciones de otras películas que le dan un toque
Es una serie que recomiendo a todos los que quieran pasar un buen rato
