Never boring, sometimes surprising (with some out of the blue easter-eggs and cameos). Well acted and directed, upon a joyful, intelligent script. Congrats!

This was a decent watch that mostly kept my interest throughout. Some of the comedy fell a bit flat but for the most part it was funny. The two male leads had a lot of character development - they were fully fleshed out, three-dimensional characters. Overall it was an okay show.

The ending was really rushed, it really took me by surprise when I realised I was on the last episode. However, other than that I thoroughly enjoyed this kdrama and pretty much binge watched it. There was something really great about watching characters doing something every day that we all do- go to work. I also really liked that none of the characters are created to be 'perfect' or aspirational and are all very flawed. This is what makes them so human and this is what makes the story work as this drama is much more about character development than anything else. Characters who might have been a typical villain in another show we get to know and learn that behind the mask and unlikeable behaviours they are just so very human. The show explains how all of these very different and 'dysfunctional' characters share something in common: they just want to work hard to succeed in their job and take care of their families. Really great sense of humour, just don't expect a love story!

It's a decent office comedy with good dynamics between the male leads but it fell short when they included Tae Ri into the mix. Tae Ri had the chance to elevate the dynamic even further if she and Yeol Chan were to be involved together, this would give Man Shik and Yeol Chan another layer to their dynamic. This would also help providing another plot line to better fill the 12 episodes because it was getting a bit dry with the jokes in the later parts. The side characters were lacking in "character" especially the coworkers in the same office, they all fell under the same characteristics. I would be easier to recommend if it was shorter than 8 episodes.

It gave me memories of my second job. My manager was very rude to me, I was separated from my colleagues and made sit next to managers cubicals , so I was the punching bag for almost 18 months, was made to work overtime , weekends and on public holidays, my vacation was cut short, my work was given credit to others.i wish I get a chance like this.
