Dark humor about politics
Likes:
1. The interesting premise of a con artist and detective getting married without knowing each other's jobs.
2. Yang Jung Gook's growth from a sleazy con artist to an honest assemblyman. I guess politics is the same in every other country. Choi Siwon did a good job of portraying Yang Jung Gook. As usual he is OTT hilarious but when needed, he can bring in the tears.
3. I loved the campaigning episodes and all the smart ways that Jung Gook can think of to get himself out of sticky situations. He may not have graduated in SNU like all the smart and arrogant assemblyman but he sure is street smart! And by the end of the drama, it feels like it was really Siwon in the National Assembly fighting for the people's rights!
4. I loved the first part showing the romance between Miyoung and Jung Gook because it set out the whole reason why he wants to protect her at all cost. I just wished she had more scenes. But loved the second half where they teamed up to take down Park Hooja.
5. Park Hooja was great! She was funny and bad. And first to see Kim Ui Seong as a good character.
Dislikes:
The neverending cat and mouse game between Jung Gook and Hooja was a bit tiring. And didnt understand the ending. Was Hooja never caught? Did she go mad?
I wouldnt mind a season 2 with a different set of baddies!
To summarize Yang Jung Gook's words and the whole drama, to all government officials: "Dont abandon the people for your personal gains. That is the least you should do for the people." .
Rating: 8/10
