I went into this drama because of Gung Min and didn't know what to expect, but was so glad in the end - and not only because of him. This is a drama that entered my top 5 list without me realizing it. It caught me off guard in a good way. It's actually not so much about the story but the characters. And in a way story and characters are bound to each other like: One half doesn't work without the other. As the story goes on, you will love each and every one of its "puppets". Even the bad guys. You will enjoy watching them grow - for better or worse - and you will anticipate every new encounter. You will find yourself lost if you don't see them at least once a day. I'm normally not a fan of comedy dramas, but I made an exception for this one since it captured my heart in an instant. The producers were some smart dudes, when I think of how they displayed the comedy parts. Of course there are your obvious jokes, but it still manages to not look too exaggerated. Then there's comedy that is subtle and looks like it doesn't want to be funny, but it is nonetheless. And then there are hilarious incidents within all the seriousness and you can't help but laugh about it, but at the same time you feel something like pride and satisfaction. Nevertheless, this show is about corruption and it is certainly not only made of happy and/or amusing moments. It also has a knack for creating suspense in its very own way. It's hard to explain but once you watch it, you'll understand. You don't like business dramas? There's no romance, why start this thing? Let me tell you some reasons: - Nam Gung Min - Lee Jun Ho - Jeong Hye Seong - Dong Ha - Im Hwa Young - Kim Won Hae - Jung Moon Sung - ... ... I could probably list the whole cast but I think you get my intention. ... - clever, well done comedy - an unusual bromance you'll adore to the core - strong female characters - strong side and guest characters (- of course also strong male characters - don't let us forget about them either) - many surprising, unexpected, freaky turn of events - a business story about corruption that is well executed an told with a good balance between comedy and seriousness - maybe one or two lessons for life itself One word to describe this show? Rewarding. In every way possible. A surprise drama and highly recommended.
