This TV show is chaotic directing. No clear story line; some scenes take far too long; one con artist stumbles over another con artist and yet over another. South Korea seems to be filled with them all trying to con some unspecified target or other con artists; an abundance of distracting characters; unnecessary scenes that don't add anything to where ever the show wants to go to; a maze of continually introduced new story lines and confusing characters.

The actors really give a decent performance. But if the director and the guys in the cutting room have a jolly day by throwing different scenes and characters in the air and see how they land on the celluloid, then a séance with Stanislavsky, Adler, Strasberg and Meisner or milking your acting energy from your toe nails up won't prevent your acting efforts from disappearing in a black hole.

Using your fast forward to escape some dreary, boring or irritating scenes doesn't help you to get out of this chaos. Hitting the stop button will.

It starts very confusing Very very confusing but later the story makes sense... it was good actually.. not bad.. I enjoyed it

I will start with the positives: the acting is superb unsurprisingly from the cast, and the acting is why my score is actually quite generous based on the negatives which I will get onto. The chemistry between the two leads is incredible however their romance storyline is only a subplot and this is not a romance drama. Not as I mind this I have watched and enjoyed many good non-romance kdramas. But this is not one of them and is one of the few kdramas I have actually given up on part way through- I got to episode 13 and decided I couldn't watch anymore. In other kdramas that have dragged a bit plot wise at this point in the series I would probably still get through the last few episodes so I could have closure on the story but by ep 13 of this series I had already been struggling through for several episodes. The first couple of episodes showed real promise but the plot soon became a very confusing mess. I felt very lost watching and it quickly became unenjoyable as I was spending too much time trying to work out what was even going on. With the premise of the story and the cast this drama could have been really good but it really missed the mark for me.

Started off strong but completely lost me along the way.

The two main leads became two I simply couldn't care less about. I became more interested in Hanso, Sophia and Sophia's love interest (went blank on his name).

Watched first two episodes. One szn consists of 16 eps. One eps takes 1h20min. It's not full rich of fun or actions like adrenalinely rushy, but lil bit longy or slow. Not too bad but should have cut some parts ...
