A series to go anytime
I had my eyes on this series after watching a reel on Instagram, and I picked to watch it after a stressful times, so it may have had a greater impact on me. But here it goes:A light-hearted drama about ordinary people trying to be ordinary, but end up being extraordinary together. Every character has a story, and a part of everybody's life takes up the form of a case, which takes up 1-2 episodes to crack.
I would say that it is somewhere similar to a slice of life, with lots of humour to it.
Each character has their own charm, and their new Chief finds it and believes in it:
"It is not perfectly invincible, but it has a charm to it"
It is not as serious as other crime thrillers like Tunnel, etc. or as funny as Laughter in Waikiki, but maybe that's what is really the charm of the series. Because it has a touch of mundaneness to it.
But I can say one thing- if the characters do grow on you, you will feel at home, definitely.
And yes, for some, it might be as charming or happening, but just one question there- whose life is?!

Watched it for Kim Nam Gil, but loved all of them!!
In the same industry that delivers some amazing heart racing mystery thrillers and revenge dramas, here comes a daily soap which is lead by this fiery priest.To be honest, the only and only reason to complete this one is Kim Nam Gil. I had dropped it once, but still watched it now and for some reason, I am not completely disappointed. It should really be mentioned that the story has potholes, some basics missed that will at least irk you, and the biggest reason- It is a slow poke. Like real slow.
The story kind of really starts from ep 13, where you can finally see things happening that should have happened at ep 6 maybe.
But still, it is funny. And I guess it is very similar to daily soap, so I am supposed to assume that there will be some nonsense.
I did take something from the drama, apart from the satisfaction of watching Kim Nam Gil-
That forgiving others is not something you do for others, it is something you do for yourself. But, this is definitely not that the cost of justice.
All the main leads are veteran actors who flawlessly bring this somewhat unfit piece to shine.
P.S- If you really need a reason to watch this, just pick any actor/actress you biase on, and stick to the determination of completing for them.

A wholesome masterpiece!
An ordinary story of an extraordinary Woo Young woo. New cases, new challenges, new people- everything is new for Young woo. And our main lead is no loser! She builds her way in this world that seems difficult for someone like her; earning everyone’s respect and praise.The series has a bang on start with various characters you’ll come to love along the way:
Her father, her teammates, her one and only love- Lee Jun ho.
With every case, we learn something new: a new aspect of law, a part of society unseen, a part of life unexplored, or something we forget when we watch any drama: Our protagonists can fail. And it is beautiful.
Park Eun bin as Woo young woo has nailed the character, proving that no one else is a better option. Her portrayal of the character will show you all the sides of Young woo- Her curiosity, her nonchalance, her smartness, her maturity, her hesitance and her humanity. And Lee Jun ho, he is an Amazon green forest. I have never seen such an amazing personality, so good, mature, pure and yes, maybe imperfect. Because when even we will get prejudiced towards Young woo, he will not. He truly loves her, just like any other person. He will make you as well Young woo forget- "Ah, she has autism". You really need to be Jun ho to be this amazing.
Not to forget the emotionally rich and highly mature kiss scene. It is the most innocent, pure scene I have seen.
I have just rewatched the series, and I must say, I kind of found new perspectives I didn't find in the series earlier.
It is a drama that deserves at least one watch, because it gives much more everytime you watch it.
Few dialogues that I love:
"Even autistic people should have the freedom to like bad guys"
This sentence shook me, because though the situation makes us believe otherwise, this statement makes things equitable- for us and autistic people.
"We all want to love and be loved. It's the same for people with intellectual disabilities, too. Rather, the desire is even greater. Because in most cases, it's harder for them to get the attention or affection they want from other."
