The story is lengthy and complicated - I think this worked against it because there were far too many characters with small parts to keep track of.
Kang-Woo is an insurance investigator until his wife and child are killed in a plane crash. He then leaves the company and starts one of his own - Mad Dog.
He is joined in this friends, Cheetah, an ex con, Noo-ri, a genius hacker type young man and Ha-ri, a young woman who has been in love with him for a while it seems. Later they are joined by Min-joon - a somewhat arrogant young man seeking to prove that his pilot brother did not commit suicide thus bringing down the plane deliberately and killing many on board.
This part is played by Do-Hwan, and the major reason I kept watching such a convoluted story. Of course there is a major villain played by the excellent. Choi Won - Young. I have to say I prefer him as a goodie, but no goodie would wear a tie in the half in half out of the collar style as he did here - one wonders at what goes on in the heads of designers - and what doesn't go on in the heads of those that wear their efforts. But then South Korean fashions - particularly for women and bizarre beyond belief.
The series is too long at sixteen episodes and the interest is not really maintained when our five intrepid heroes are off screen.
Particularly Do Hwan - or did I mention that !!
Worth a watch - but it does sag in the middle.

I'm not sorry to say I watched simply because the lead actors were easy on the eyes, particularly Yoo Ji-Tae who, for me, is the perfect tall, langy and handsome leading man. Those lips!! Anyway, the plot itself is pretty generic and wasn't as captivating as I'd expected; nevertheless, it was good enough to while away a few hours.
I grew quite fond of Korean crime genre. They tend to provide excellent stories with complicated intertwining plot. What I love about this genre is the never ending give and take and creative schemes from both the fighting parties. Mad Dog is all that and more with shocking reveals and hints of romance between Woo Do-Hwan and Ryu Hwa-young, who really was the undeniable beauty of this series. The ending was really good and a great way to end the series on a satisfying and fulfilling note. It was really cool to watch. A must watch!!!
I finished My Country: The New Age on Netflix and wanted to watch something else with the fantastic Do-Hwan Woo in it, and this was something that looked promising. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this show, as the premise initially sounded quite boring. An insurance scam? Insurance fraud workers? How exciting could it be?
As I said, I watched this purely for Do-Hwan, who was definitely the main draw as his character was irresistibly charismatic which masked a deeper, darker part of himself. The other characters definitely grew on me, and the story kept me interested enough to finish. I think its worth a watch, especially if you are a fan of Do-Hwan. His cocky attitude and the love/hate relationships he has with the members of Mad Dog are definitely the best parts!
A world of insurance scams I've never seen before. it's FUN and the best.
After I watched My Country: New Age played by Woo Do Hwan it was a pale and handsome young man who had charmed me. I decided to watch Mad Dog because there is Woo Do, who this time is a man who is good at hacking computers and a con artist. In terms of character, it is quite interesting and epic to make me not stop watching Min Joon. interaction with Kang Woo between hate, love in colleagues to willing to work together and willing to sacrifice to bear heavy things for Min Joon and his late family. I really like the drama Mad Dog and deserve a high rating.
