i love this show. if you're interested in anti corruption stuff, found family, lots of humor, and amazing fun loving characters (especially female ones!) this is up your alley. i think people who watched angry mom will also like this (same writer) though this is more my speed but the points of her shows stand.

i really will cherish this show. it's a literal superhero story and satirical and it's so pure even if there are parts about everyone that aren't or are more morally grey. this show shows you that the good guys will always be ahead of you.

i can easily forgive so many strange plot devices or how absolutely ridiculous something can be if i just had the time of my life. there are flaws both creatively and technically, but the show is a beautiful breath of fresh air. and these are some of the best female characters i've seen in a show like this. i fell in love with everyone (even the evil ones or at least i knew their purpose...)

it's pretty progressive and has good social messages too and it's basically a 16 hour show about taking down baddies with your best friends and your cool teacher from HS that changed your life. the love and respect these characters share is incredible. i will have fond memories. if you like quirky stuff and love having fun with a fun interesting plot i RECOMMEND THIS!

How can I start reviewing this drama? The main reason I am here was because of Kim Dong Wook and Kim Kyung Nam, my two princes so, this journey was worth it. Their characters are beyond funny and heart-touching. Seriously, loved them so much!
I didn't know that labor inspectors exist, yep, I'm quite dumb. They seem to have power and if you are not a good person then It can be dangerous. Fortunately, our male lead was righteous but, this quality was his tomb. All his problems were because of it even his relationship with his wife. I definitely love every single character of this show.
As for the OST..It's the most amazing I have ever listened to. Every song was according to the scenes. I remember myself waiting for their release so bad. Anyway, what I enjoyed the most about this show is the strong bond between our male lead and his students, in addition to that, I must say I loved how his wife was becoming close to him as time went by and how they've got those tiny winnings at the end of the episodes.
Please, give it a try. Pretty sure You're going to enjoy it as much as I did.
I will miss my oppas.
Cheers!
Mabe
