editSynopsis

Two exes break up reconcile several years later. Both end up being spies working for different units, so they have to keep their covers up in real life. Joo Won Plays the hero Gil Ro who decided in his youth that he wanted to be a spy after watching a Bond movie. His father became rich practically overnight, so he grows up in wealth and comfort, with a generous spirit toward others and a chic, refined appearance. Gil Ro gets accepted as a secret agent, but he’s not your usual veteran agent; he thinks and acts like the new generation he belongs to, and he makes mistakes and causes conflict.

    When this drama started there were so many likers of this show that i couldn't wait when it would finish airing, so that i could start watching it. But as time passed, there appeared so many haters and negative reviews, that made me doubt whether i should start it or not. But, anyways, i started watching it and really enjoyed it.
    I agree that the first 5-6 episodes are more entertaining, but the rest wasn't that bad either. Their meeting and the training were super, but after being trained and becoming an agent,they started their operation, which is logical (so i don't understand those who were disappointed...)
    There was only one thing that was annoying me, the scenes of Seo Won's parents (it had nothing to

    I am really disappointed with this drama.

    During the first 5 episodes, I really thought this drama was going to be great. The story was interesting, and the cast seemed fitting. It was funny, and sweet with some suspens...until the whole thing drowned into melotramatic clichés.

    At some point, the actors stopped talking to each other, and instead began to just speak their lines with an affected manner, giving the audience the impression that they are philosophizing all episodes long, talking about "where they are in their relationship", and trying to convince us that they are about to kill each other, when actually there is not enought tension between them to generate so much as a slap.

    I think the story also needed a strong opponent.

  • Both dramas are based around the same story. A female spy trying to get a man who is danger to fall for her in order to get something from him and end up falling in love and protecting him.

    I'm at episode 15 and at some point watching this drama has become kind of a drag. I'm close enough to the end that I plan to finish it but still... It started out well but once they got into the "serious-business"/conspiracy stuff it lost almost all of its charm. Also, these are like the most incompetent secret agents ever (and not in a comedically intentional way). Sure, we're at a resort where we know there are people who are willing to kill us, let's just run up and open the door without even looking through the peephole first. Little things like that are starting to grate on me. I know that I'm being nitpicky but that's what happens when everything else about the story starts to bore me.

    I looooved this drama in the start..until 8th - 9th episode I guess lol. It was super funny at the begginning, the plot seem interesting and everything (besides main actress was perfect). But then those agents started to show their stupidity, seriously I've never in my life seen such a band of dumbass :p so I finished it only for Chansung (I'm a Hottest <3). But after all the ending wasn't bad at all ;) Action was a bit too slow for me and like I said those agents was super stupid, and why do we even needed all that plot about Kim Seo Won's parents?

    This drama was not totally horrible but it could have been a little better. It had its moments like most dramas but I think the character development is where things began to go wrong. My biggest laugh was around the 6:45 - 6:54 minute mark in ep 20 where she went to having an oxygen mask on to not having one then back to having one...lol I would still give this drama a 7.

    Cute couple, even though they have a lots of names. XDD
  • animefayinc Apr 10, 2013
    I find it ironic how many people have been complaining about the main actress, and then Joo Won chooses her as his "best partner/costar" ever XD

    This drama was cute gets boring at the mid and gets fun towards the end, there was absolutely no chemistry between the two leads, and the it's overrated yet was an enjoyable show, the actors playing spies actors,actress playing Sun mi & actor portraying Pill Hoon's father were the best and had the best chemistry with others and relating to their roles.

    NOt going to write a review cause theres so many but i just wanted to share my final thoughts. I gave this a 7 because although The acting by everyone was excellent, there was just not that romantic chemistry I was looking for to pull me in. This drama is just a predictable romcom with a spy theme. Also they couldve done this in 16 eps to make the pacing a little faster.

    Episode 19 00:38:55-0:40:18. Does anyone else recognize the song being played? It's been bugging me since I've watched it, I'm 100% sure I know it but no idea where it is from...
  • CheerfulSoul Apr 2, 2013
    I literally forced myself to finish this drama! I was expecting so much from My Gf is an Agent's remake but the story was too slow for my taste, barely entertaining and the action was lacking.I repeat that I don't have anything against the female lead, she was pretty good as an actress. It's the plot that was messed up pretty hard, it had potential but it failed to deliver anything memorable.<br /><br /> In short: I regret watching this.<br />

    Although this dragged a bit in the middle .. I enjoyed this drama for what it was worth and tried to refrain from comparing it to other dramas of the same genre. The first episodes were really entertaining and the character the development had me really invested in all the characters .. which is why I stuck with it till the end. The last episodes were done especially well and I loved how the writers ended it! Which is definitely something I can't say for most of the dramas I've seen. Joo Won & Choi Kang Hee were adorable in these roles. There were times I felt they lacked chemistry .. but definitely acheived some by the end of the drama. All in all, I recommend this :)

    Just finished this drama and I personally enjoyed it. I liked the way it was a mixture of romcom/action/spystory and on the whole I found it a pleasant and easygoing watch. Of course after having seen Joo Won in Bridal Mask it was a big change to appreciate him in a lighter role, however he played it perfectly well and I thought that also the other actors were good. This drama is nothing spectacular but it is pretty decent and fun to watch. I rated it 8.

    So I just finished the drama but I'm left with a question...what happened to Im Yoon Ho's character? In the ending, it showed a little of what happened to Kim Mirae but nothing about Choi Woo Jin? Should I assume he had to go through interrogation with Kim Mirae? Then they both had to face consequences?!?!?! So many questions... TT_TT

      It doesn't really matter what happened, they killed/tried to kill people, so it's implied they would end up being arrested.

    • Mareina Apr 9, 2013
      I don't see why they would be arrested - director Oh got a promotion for his wrongdoings!
    • DiaNine Apr 9, 2013
      Yeah he was being blackmailed in case you missed that part, and regardless of that he was a powerful man and got everything hidden, the others were just criminals doing what they were doing for revenge. So yes, chances are they were arrested.
