Good but nothing outstanding
This drama was better than expected, I did not want to watch it because I didn't hear much good things about it when it came out. But I have to say it delivered more than it expected. Most of the good moments came from the comedy though. Jeon Ji Hyeon did a great job, I just adore the way she acts out her quirky, really really WEIRD characters. And also, props to Lee Min Ho, I honestly don't like him very much, cause I don't really understand the hype about him and I still don't. But The Heirs probably ruined him for me, but wow he was a good fit for Joon Jae. Omg, I already miss those three scamming people. Thinking back it feels like it was ages ago since the beginning of the show. I mean I finished it, even with a lot of skipping, I finished it. Which is pretty rare for me.
I want to mention the stepbrother of Joon Jae though. I feel like he doesn't get enough love or empathy cause he is literally the biggest victim out of all. He is the child of two psychos and he didn't even know, the psycho part of him was probably inherited as well. I wish the writers or the director would have developed more on his struggle between justice and his mother. He is a very complex character that had the potential to add even more spice. Anyway the stepmother was a complete maniac some goes to Ma Dae Young, but he was at least less hateable (maybe because of the actor, i just can't get his other roles out of my head, though the actor did a great job of course). Ah, and MAN was I relieved when Jo Nam Doo turned out to be a double agent. Though, I didn't like it very much. But he had good comedic moments sooooooo.
Honestly, not much to say. I don't think this is a must watch, though it's not complete trash, there were some amazing moments.
