It is too well done! Perfectly constructed, every episode is just amazing, go watch!

~In a desperate situation to pay for her daughter's surgery, Myung Joon kidnaps a sharp-witted girl Ro Hee. At that time, Ro Hee lost her memory so she does not recognize her kidnapper. Crisis starts when an incident happen to her real parents...

A snappy child-genius & a clumsy man with the warmest heart, together they are involved in various situations from kidnapping to an unassuming mystery. The story is solid with no filler scene, it’s refreshing, angsty, with a sprinkle of family melodrama. What’s stand out among the usual crime show is that it still set up a high stake, but it’s packed with comedy without it derails the plot. As a wannabe kidnapper, Myung Joon is not-criminally-minded. People and police are guessing his motives, but he is not-at-all pretentious. In contrast, Ro-hee is an intelligent 11-year-old, she shows no fear and confuses him. You’ll see who's in charge watching them together! Their relation is beyond the usual paternal-affection... More like two frenemies teasing each other's nerves. I can’t take their bickering seriously but that's why I'm loving this show! ? As dim-witted Myung Joon is, he's a tough cookie in all situations. There's a fast n furious-like car chase, following him fighting, flipping his body like a fish! ? ? His fighting skills are authentic! Hahaha… #iykyk

There's an intriguing story behind Ro Hee's amnesia and kidnapping. I won't spoil, but everyone who's involved with this is boiling my blood. Another pro, I often get frustrated if the investigation is pointless until last minute, but here police have agency; they busted people in act, clues and plot twists are dropped early on, keeping me on the edge of my seat. This show is marching strong way beyond all other 2023 dramas I’m watching and I'm so involved consistently to the finale.
Despite so many shows on my plan-to-watch list, I am already re-watching it
