I cannot put into words how amazing this drama makes me feel. It has the action, it has the romance, it has the comedy, all rolled up into one neat package that you just cannot stop watching. There's hardly ever a dull moment, and nothing is left untouched. The cast was superb; could not think of anyone better. Ji Chang Wook and Park Min Young had beautiful chemistry that made me smile just seeing them in the same room together. The whole Clark Kent trope was done magnificently: Ji Chang Wook playing Jung Hoo playing Bong Soo... it's amazing work. Truly. Yoo Ji Tae was wonderful as well... I was worried for Moon Ho a little at the beginning but he really came through in the end. Of course Young Shin was more than just a 2D heroine... Park Min Young has improved since City Hunter. Can I just say that Eternal Love is my all time favorite OST now? "It's a beautiful feeling... what we've got deep inside...." I just... aw. The story was wonderfully executed. It didn't drag on for too long like most dramas tend to do... milking out every little plot point and upping the melodramatic angst unnecessarily. Healer made sure to address each plot point and moved on to the next one while still staying on top of the main plot. What I loved most about this is that between Jung Hoo and Young Shin, there was not REAL K-drama trope of the "misunderstanding" or "first love" angst. When a problem arose, they TALKED IT OUT like a normal couple might and worked through it in less than one episode. I definitely recommend this drama to anyone who loved City Hunter, but is ready to add in more of the comedy and a more natural romance. Min Young and Lee Min Ho looked good together, but I think I may like Chang Wook better. I also recommend this drama to someone who is into secret identities, spying, high tech gear, and all around wonderfully choreographed action sequences. Definitely worth a rewatch.
