The show was a 'good' job…not a great one, but not a terrible one, either.

Using my personal rating system of "loved," "liked," "meh," & "nah," this was a “liked” borderline “meh” but said with a very cheerful tone and shrug. :D

What I liked:
I liked the idea of a CEO of a large corporation who is in reality a private detective and has this whole secret base thing. Kind of a real-life super hero concept.
The couples were cute. I liked the gradual progression of FL/ML relationship. They had a reasonably positive relationship for dramaland. Nor did the show seem to get less interesting once they did get together—which some shows seem to fall apart after the mains finally get together.
Jung Il Woo is good at both drama and comedy but in reality, all the mains did well in my opinion. Hong Woo Jin did a good job of playing two personalities—the obedient, silent assistant and the real, crazy, violent creature underneath.

What I did not like as much:
Seriously, if you have a secret base why not have LOCKS!? Some fingerprint readers? Retinal scanners!? Or even just a good ole padlock somewhere!? If he could afford to build the darn thing, he could have afforded some better security. That was just lazy writing, allowing people to constantly discover the secret lair.
I thought this idea was good, but they could have taken it so much further. There’s all the fun dressing up and playing different roles in the first couple of episodes and then it just stops.
I did not buy Kang Tae Joon’s sudden change of heart. He was a borderline sociopath with some clear self-control issues and a disturbing tendency of violence towards women. Suddenly he finds out he’s a dad and now he’s all remorseful? He actually tried to have the ML killed but his own dad turning out to be a killer was the turning point for him!? Yeah….no.
The ending took a little to long to wrap itself up, but I wasn’t mad about it. But they never really explained why ML’s mom died? Or did I miss that?

In conclusion, there are definitely flaws and places where it could have been so much better. But it was cute, it was interesting, it was not a waste of time.

Random question:
Are there really personal assistants out there that apparently never sleep, eat, or need to use the bathroom? That are on call 24/7, fully dressed, coiffed, and showered without actually ever needing time to dress and shower!? Much less work out to keep up their amazing martial arts skills… And with fully charged phones at all times?
