One Word: Hilarious

This drama was absolutely funny. I really loved the relationship between the main guy and girl. A righteous rich girl and a con artist, seems like an oddly pair. His whole team was weird in a good way. They used illegal means to help those the law left behind but came upon some goofy circumstances. I really liked watching this drama. I wish we had a bit more depth to the characters but overall still a really good drama.

I would definitely recommend watching if you want a drama to watch that's not heavy or melodramatic. I watched this show on a whim and doesn't regret it at all.

BIG CITY HUNTER VIBES.

What I noticed first and foremost while watching this drama was the strong likeliness to Tsukasa Hojo's City Hunter.

The main character is a baddie with a soft heart working as an outlaw, weak with girls, children and old people, who ends up helping the FL out of a pinch. Just like Saeba Ryo.

We also get a nice and intriguing back story for the FL (just like Makimura Kaori).

Add to the mix some action /fighting scenes, humor and puns, banter, a slight romance, plus a support cast, and you get the perfect mix!

Some might find the FL annoying because of her values, but remember that imperfect characters are the best, because that leave place for them to grow.

As for the core mechanism used by the hero (threatening people, yes, that's the spoiler you're looking for, but wasn't sure it was one since it's mentioned in the title tbh) it was quite surprising and unusual, but nonetheless really fun!

A really fun ride from beginning to the end, and if you loved it, go watch Tantei ga Hayasugiru. It's also really fun in it's own way!

Not at romance as listed at Viki

For someone that is pretty much dedicated to romance and happily-ever-after, this show was a disappointment to me in that respect. I did not rate down because of this though. This show was cute, there were some amusing parts, and the concept was interesting.

The male and female leads were good. He tried to be intimidating, it didn't work. She tried to mind her own business, it didn't work. These two always seemed to be working at odds toward the same results. It did a good job of showing how there is more than one way to accomplish something, which was refreshing. I also enjoyed the family dynamics of the female lead. She had very strong principles, but was also able to admit her mistakes and move forward.

Watch this if you want a somewhat original storyline, a little drama and very little angst.

..WHEN THREATENING IS A CRIME TOO..

..is this a kind of robin hood genre, where The Intimidator do bad thing to help others yet he received in exchange..
.
..well that's how I see it - this drama is a mix of balance action and comedy. . .and a detective part too..
.
..it's kinda weird too see some weird action moves which not necessary to add, except the funny part - maybe just too add some coolness on the ML..
.
..and still, the FL, on whatever roles she has, always give an excellent action - on of my favorite actress..
.
..don't expect a love strong, it will only get you a pinch on the heart..
.
..the episode, not too long and not too short, just right, even if it takes a long minutes to watch it didn't get me bored but enjoy every part on it..
.
..thank you for having this kind of drama - to all the casts and staffs..

Better than I expected

I can't believe there aren't any reviews for this besides the one. I watched the first ep and had to share it with my boyfriend. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The humor in this is hilarious and the music adds to it. It could be qualified as a cozy mystery as there aren't really any murders like most of the mystery series you see. I'm a fan of buddy comedies and of stories con artists with normal sidekicks. This is a nice mix of both.
Definitely good if you're looking for something short and light-hearted after binging those heavy Korean crime dramas.
