Sweet and humorous.

Very well cast series with a lot of enjoyable supporting characters with their own little quirks and funny moments.
It is one of those shows that is a lot less about the overarching story and more about the interactions between the characters and the moments created from that. The story gets resoundingly completed but it's not at all the focus of the show.

The main character was a little too much for me right at the beginning of the series. A little TOO bumbling to begin with, to a point where you start to think there is no conceivable way this person could have made it through police training. But I warmed up to her fairly quickly as she started to develop away from being nearly incompetent.

A few surprisingly deep and emotional side stories in the episodes that catch you off guard, which I am learning is not at all uncommon in these types of J Dramas.

Great series to watch where you can just enjoy the dialogue and characters without having to pay too much attention to the story. This series is much more the journey than the destination.

8/10
