Please turn your brain off now... thank you.
This one is a huge mixed bag for me. On the one hand, the story was pretty ridiculous. It stretches the realm of possibility at virtually every corner, and doesn't care if its "explanations" (if you can even call them that) make a lick of sense. But... on the other hand, I was still very interested to see how all the plot points would come to a head, and had at least a bit of fun anyways.
The biggest draw to this show would be Jang Hyuk's brow raising performance. I don't even know if you could call it "good" in the classic sense, as he really decides to play it as eccentric and weird when the script seems like it doesn't call for either? In any case, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen when he was doing his thing. Even in the first episode when we get his insane drunken moment (read: WTF?), I was thinking to myself I should probably be feeling bad for the guy right now, but the whole scene instead came across as just plain odd. Still, it was strangely captivating.
The other leads get the job done well enough. I wasn't nearly as bothered by the FL as many of the commenters here are. The rest of the story is watchable, despite a lot of predictable moments that mostly rely on the good guys' ability to be as stupid as humanly possible in a critical moment. Again, turn your brain off before jumping into this one. I don't think it strays from its early shown formula, so give it an episode or two to decide if you like it.
As my first foray into Kdramas, it was a little lackluster. However, decent enough that I'll eventually give season 2 a try.
