I picked this up wanting something fun to watch and this was perfect for that. The viewing experience is a lot like watching a comic, especially with the added sound effects and occasional pop art so in some ways you don't take this show too seriously. It is mostly light hearted with fun characters and dialogue that keeps you smiling and giggling in every episode. The production and cinematography was done well and the OST was cute. The actors all executed their roles very well and were mostly enjoyable to watch. Min Hyuk is the cutest male lead I have ever seen; every scene with him was so cute or funny and kept me smiling from ear to ear. But the actor wasn't just comic relief, he also carried his emotions so well with his gaze that you felt those smoldering looks while watching. The chemistry between the two leads was great.

What knocks off points for me were two things: first there were 3 characters I really disliked and did not see the purpose of them even being present in the story and the second is the tonal shift in the storyline toward the end. I'll explain better.

First the 3 characters I really disliked were Hee Ji who was Gook Doo's girlfriend in the beginning of the show, Kwang Bok who was one of the 'leaders' for the gang that was after Bong Soon, and Oh Dol Pyo who was the head of the Strategy Department. The girlfriend was there only to showcase Bong Soon's one sided crush but then her personality and actions irked me as there was no reason for any of it since that sub plot did not move the story along in any way. The last two characters were played by the same actor and I truly hated both. The gangster was just meant to be a ridiculous punching bag but since there were so many other gangsters that were all silly as well then this character was not needed. And Mr. Oh was brought in later in the series just to create a weird conflict within the Strategy Department for Bong Soon as well as be another comedic relief but again the character was just annoying and unneeded.

Now the story line. This show did try a little hard to mesh a couple genres together. It is a rom com/ comic super hero/ mystery thriller/ comedy all in one. In a lot of ways the writers made this work quite well. Where they faltered was from about episode 11-15 when the climax of the mystery thriller was beginning to really set in. While the story progressed well with the mystery part it was the constant scene shifts to unimportant characters and comedy scenes that felt so jarring that I was annoyed. I ended up skipping portions here of the gangsters side storyline and the parents in favor of just seeing the main plot and characters.

All in all I thoroughly enjoyed this show and highly recommend it especially if you are looking for a cute romance or a show to get you giggling.
