Kwangsoo's best role, story is great

This is mystery done in a fun way! The comedic aspect of this show is hilarious and it's lighthearted. You can pretty much figure it out by the 4th-5th episode, but it's done in a very interesting way. They discuss some pretty serious topics, too, like lgbtqia+ community treatment, mental health and inability to achieve goals, disillusionment, domestic spousal and child abuse, detective/cop corruption, real estate economy and how it impacts communities. Overall, some very nice themes and undertones which are addressed with a very progressive critique during the show. Plus these are dealt with in subtle ways, which is sometimes comforting and wholesome due its realistic nature.

I may be biased because I began watching this show for Kwang Soo, but the story did grab me. Unlike a lot of Kwang Soo's previous work, this story did seem interesting. I can see he has some growing to do in the acting department, but he pulls off this role well! He's a natural when it comes to comedic acting (as expected), but I can sense a bit of "acting" going on during more stressful scenes. I know our giraffe is learning a lot :), and I'm highkey in love with the rest of the cast. The actress for the mom is amazing; Fish, Veggie, Products and Yul's acting is great, too!

100% recommend if you're looking for a lighthearted mystery show. Some scenes (like the murder discoveries) can be a bit grotesque for feint viewers, but it's really not very pronounced. They also do a lot of censoring, so not to worry.

I'm sad that next week will be the final week, but this show is great, and I'm thoroughly enjoying it :)! I'm curious to see how they will wrap this up, and "who" the murderer will be and what their reasons are! Would watch again :)!
