TAKI Jul 07 2022 12:16 pm Oh goshhhhh I need Season 2 A.S.A.P!! Taehyun as detectives is just.....asdfghjkl <3<3<3<3<3

I Need More Tae-Hyun's Investigation Drama!!!

Also hoping for Jungse will be the next cast as the villain :D

SOLAR Oct 11 2021 11:43 am The only thing I hate about this drama is when the female lead doing that horse sound. Why the hell did the wtiter and director even added that. Everything else is good.

vmin Oct 10 2021 9:27 am i watched this drama after watching police university and loving cha tae hyun's acting there. i wasn't disappointed at all. this drama was very entertaining and i enjoyed all the main casts. their relationship in this drama was very funny. hoping for a season 2 though.

Nayy Aug 23 2021 1:08 pm Season 2 pleaseeee

Tey Aug 21 2021 4:04 am This is actually goodddd like super good drama. I like their teamwork when it comes to catching the culprits. When you see this review, don’t hesitate to watch it already.

Aurora Aug 15 2021 8:17 am Season 2 Pleaseeee

Helloseason2 Aug 15 2021 5:18 am Season 2 pleaseee.... I love for all actors(their chemistry) and the storyline I don't get bored watching this drama Love so much ❤️ Waiting for season 2 !!!

Ja Aug 15 2021 12:37 am I am watching this drama because I like Cha Tae Hyun. He doesn’t get old and look the same all these years. And as I watch the drama I can say am enjoying it. Action, comedy, and everything else. Watch it and enjoy the show.

Kdrama fan Aug 07 2021 8:25 am Is it me? Nowadays kdrama are getting shorter. Many are 12 epi which are just nice, not too draggy and don't have much fillers like some other longer series. Easy to binge watch and complete it and/or rewatch it again. I love it.

cacacu Aug 01 2021 11:04 am season 2 please!!!!

Kdrama fan Jul 20 2021 8:52 am A light hearted serial killings drama. Funny and not bad. Sometimes maybe plot a bit slow. But the culprits here are usually the ones you don't suspect them I think.

Tamz May 15 2021 7:35 pm Season 2 pleaseeee..

Mmz May 03 2021 8:01 am Glad that I finally watched this drama. Few times seeing this drama in in streaming app I use, but it doesn't piqued my interest. Because I thought the drama is more in comedy side based on the drama cover. Then I found some review that it's a hidden game. Then I finally watched it, and turn out this drama is really good. Crime thriller drama with not so over portion comedy. Even though there are too many coincidence involving main cast, but the story itself is really great.

Jilly Apr 22 2021 2:20 pm Omg One Of The Best Kdramas I Ever Watched!!!

I watched this 3x already and I’m still not sick of it. The chemistry of the 5 lead actors is spot on and I love the twists. The action scenes and soundtrack is awesome as well.

Season 2 please!!!!!!!!!! Definitely a 10/10!!!!!!!

Eumie Apr 14 2021 3:45 am Season 2 please!

heyho Mar 04 2021 9:43 am i'm a fan of crime drama and craving for some crime-comedy, thanks god i found this. Excited seeing cha taehyun & lee sunbin as main lead. And wow this is beyond my expectation!! Plot, character and everything is refreshing. The soryline, cases, crime motives and culprits are unique. There's always a twist when the story unfold. I really love it!!

hihellows Feb 26 2021 12:11 am seasonnnnnnnnn 2 ! jebaljuseyo

Hae Won Jan 20 2021 9:43 am I really love this drama. The actors and actresses were really good especially Cha Tae Hyun and Lee Sun Bin. It was a combination of thriller, mystery, investigative story and comedy. It never fail to amaze me. I learned a lot from this drama and I was entertained. Highly recommended.

Gelo Dec 30 2020 9:45 am based on the ending, it has season 2 ryt?

ive never been a fan of crime-mystery genre not until i watched this. you got thrilled every ep. and the squad is a boom! season 2 please!!

Tabita Dec 28 2020 1:25 pm this was sooooooo good, i will definitely watch another season.

marlon Dec 14 2020 8:36 am I want season 2 please

Salihin Nov 20 2020 10:41 am I want Season 2

Casual Oct 20 2020 7:00 pm This is the type of drama that gets better after few episode. At first, it kind of boring then it start to get interesting on 3-4 episode. It's a pretty good drama to me, but it didn't really have anything special tbh. But it's not bad at all, the cases is pretty good, the characters is very likeable and the drama is funny as well. So if you want to spend some time to watch a simple investigation drama, this might be it. It is also only 12 episodes.

Molly Dash Oct 02 2020 1:17 am Very cool entertaining drama, well done !!!

Waiting for session 2 :)

Udin Sep 11 2020 3:46 am The best! I wish to see more series like this from Korea. This js hillarious, tensed, and the acting is superb.

Shae Sep 04 2020 12:19 pm Besttt Highly Recommneded! Its have everything I need. The thriller, the mystery, the comedy, the plot twist. Everything is hella good. Hoping for a season 2 with the same cast since all of them did a great job! I really love Min Daejin character, he is so cute. Cha Taehyun did a great job, I love his acting. Lee Sunbin unnie also did a very good job, I love her character. Banseok, Teddy, and Takwon are the comedy trio that I really enjoyed watching. 10/10.

Terry Jul 12 2020 8:17 pm This show was great! it stayed funny throughout and I didn't solve every mystery before the investigators did.

Meme gurl Jul 12 2020 8:57 am I love this kdrama i love that all characters are so likable kdrama that has no love story but great team work i wish for season 2!!!

marlon Jul 12 2020 8:36 am Why it has only 12 episode!! Its awesome i really enjoyed it!!

marlon Jul 12 2020 8:28 am This is the best show i really enjoyed it...i never thought korean can make a kdrama without love story involved

Fayesha Jul 10 2020 3:45 pm Too much plot hole. this drama is what i called. protagonist will always win, no matter absurd and hopeless the situation are. i love the team and their specialty, should have been more better action drama.

kitten Jul 05 2020 9:52 am I'm so disappointed the episode only 12. Its so funny, interesting and the culprit is unexpected. 10/10. Thumbs up!

MR.CHA!! Jul 03 2020 12:46 pm welcome back to the Kdrama World Mr.Cha!! wish to see you now in some variety shows!! Fighting!!

DK_jjang Jul 01 2020 7:51 pm Oh I like this drama so much.. Actually, I watched this drama just because of Cha Tae Hyun and Lee Sun Bin at first, and I did'nt put high expectation for the story. But, waw i found that this drama was that Fun and Good.. the comedy, the chilling part, the mystery..its all great. Of course the acting of all casts its no jokes. Unfortunately that its only 12 episodes :( I really need Season 2!! please make the season 2 for this Drama jakka-nim and kamdong-nim ^^

support team bulldog off-duty investigation Jul 01 2020 9:44 am I absolutely love this drama. The actors and actresses did so well on their characters and they were so funny. Chae taehyun, you are my favourite police/detective now. I need S2 please!!

Alene Jean Dacanay Jul 01 2020 7:12 am I love this drama so much. ? I need season 2 ?

castlin Jul 01 2020 2:04 am Love love love.. its Cha Tae Hyun :) definitely worth watching.

Lucky Jun 29 2020 7:48 pm I love this drama soooooo much. I wish it stop at 20 or 16 episodes. We want to see more of this drama. I love it was comedy and mystery. We want to see ma dong seok oppa aswell. The cast was amazing and funny. I love the fighting scene and jokes between them. Cha taehyun oppa said that if this drama its successful whch it is a success project he will invite kwangsoo as cameo. Please do I want to see kwangsoo oppa. I am fan of kwangsoo oppa but he is also the best actor like I have watch every drama of his. I like to crime, mystery, action and thriller.

LoneGunMan Jun 29 2020 1:49 pm Loved all the episodes until the last one. They tried to stuff everything including the kitchen sink in that last 1 hour episode. Cultists etc... well 11good episodes out of 12 is still not bad! I still hope there is a 2nd season.

LoneGunMan Jun 29 2020 8:18 am Does anybody know if there was a previous show to this with Ma Dong-Seok? I was just wondering why his picture as Jin Kang-Ho's dad was shown in some episodes.

Sakura Jun 29 2020 6:44 am Hoping for Season 2 <3 This drama is sooo good Really good crime-thriller-comedy genre Totally recommended! I have a great laugh till the end of episode XD Entertaining and refreshing (thumbs up!)

indonesia Jun 28 2020 12:04 pm I hope there will be season 2❤,please.

Cth Fan Jun 28 2020 6:31 am Oh No!! Tonight Is The Finale!!!

I hope there will be season 2❤ maybe Kangho married with Muyeong?

Ms. Stranger Jun 28 2020 3:31 am This drama is amazing!!! I hope there will be season 2!

Suzan Jun 27 2020 11:24 am Hoping season2! Cha taehyun is so hansome.

HandsomeFKBoi Jun 27 2020 3:55 am I don't normally post review but when I do you know its serious sh*it. But seriously, this drama is so refreshing because its entertaining from beginning to end. It got humour, thriller and great actions and the pacing is so good that there are no filler to drag the story. I don't know the name of the main actor but he is in one of my favourite comedy of all times; My Sassy Girl and surprisingly this drama is like My Sassy Girl mix with Full House. I mean the chemistry between the two leads are exceptional and seems so natural. The lead actress is good as well, she is like the girl in My Sassy Girl. lol. Anyway, for people on the fence about this drama, don't deter by the low rating because it's not your typical melodramatic Kdrama so watch a couple of the first episodes and see whether you like it or not.

Jennreveluv Jun 24 2020 5:57 am Hoping for Season 2 please

Jennreveluv Jun 24 2020 5:56 am I love this drama so much huhu it is a pity that this drama will end next week.

KDPH Jun 22 2020 8:02 pm I wish there are more episodes :)

5_ooo Jun 21 2020 5:31 am still cant believe this drama will only have 12 episodes

Ciara Jun 21 2020 1:27 am I’m currently in Korea and I got hooked on it from the OCN channel on the TV here. Absolutely brilliant drama, just keeps getting better and finally we may see what the shoe workers past is ! Excited for the last few episodes, I wonder if it gets good ratings we hopefully could see another season , let’s see what happens !

gyuuuu Jun 18 2020 9:20 pm this drama gets better every episode! highly recommended

Fayesha Jun 16 2020 8:18 am I mean, did they don't have weapon, baton or anything ? it would be more cool to just grab the guy in motorcycle when it's heading to the mole, or smack him with weapon or anything. and blocking a motorcycle with body ? really ? and did he didn't see the guy putting out knife ? and just let the motorcycle pass him and stab him ? what is the purpose of blocking his way then ? Just for a touching moment huh ?

ily cth Jun 16 2020 3:41 am guys this drama is gettin' more interesting, but sadly we only have 4 episodes left?

Bruce Jun 14 2020 12:16 pm Omo i love that drama! Cha Tae Hyun oppa is so handsome...

tunamayoo Jun 12 2020 5:19 am I've been a fan of cha tae hyun way way before. I like him in this drama. Actually, I'm more fond of him and the red zone bar peeps here. Female lead is actually a bit annoying for me.

Jung Ran Jun 09 2020 9:43 pm Really happy to see CTH back!!!! and love love love the drama!

Mat Tan Jun 09 2020 7:27 am The old man with shoe repair shop is creepyyyyyyyy!

wayer Jun 08 2020 9:39 am Cha Taehyun, the veteran actor. I like to check out his projects knowing that he can carry all sorts of character, and I am not disappointed. He still looks cute too. And where there is Jung Sanghoon, we can crack up loud and clear :) I love the Team Bulldog, they are serious and funny, and crystal clear at getting the culprit behind bars. Go Team Bulldog! Go OCN! Hwaiting~

seehwa Jun 07 2020 10:21 am Really trying to like this drama because of the fantastic cast but it's a slightly confusing mix between investigation/crime and comedy... can't seem to delve myself into the crime scenes because of the weirdly timed comedic inputs.

Cth Fan Jun 07 2020 9:33 am ⚠️ What happened with Bansuk's daughter?!

JK Jun 05 2020 4:01 pm @last comment, Karen Lee,

Yes, you can change the rating just click again on the rating bar~

Karen Lee Jun 05 2020 1:43 am I wanted to give a 90% rating but accidentally pressed 59% . Wonder if I can amend my rating of this drama.

Karen Lee Jun 05 2020 1:42 am This drama is really good. Great pace, good storyline, great chemistry among the cast etc.

I can't wait for episode 5.

A real refreshing change from the usual lovey dovey dramas.

Yuri Jun 01 2020 4:50 am I am in love, deeply in love, with this kdrama. I love you guys (the whole crew). You make my day brighter! <3 :)

Cth fan May 31 2020 10:49 am Thanks Delly! and I agree with you about the criminals hahaha!?

Delly May 31 2020 2:14 am Gosh Kim min seok and Kim min soo really are twins. I come here just to check the fact. I though they use double or whatever. Why the criminals in ocn dramas always so hot.

About the guy in the repair shop, I bet it has something to do with kangho father and where kangho wealthiness comes from.

Cth fan May 28 2020 12:57 am Can someone tell me about relationships between Jin Kangho and the old man from shoe repair shop owner?

The living person May 26 2020 10:13 am My hope for this drama maybe a lil' bit high? I think I will wait to watch for a few ep then decide wheter to follow or drop. Don't underestimate me, I love the characters, the storyline is ok but something was lack in the scene idk. Usually, I'm a fan of investigation/detective/thriller/crime drama. Cha tae hyun and lee sun bin yeah I will follow bcause of you two. Such a good actor and actress.

ChaTaehyunDaughter May 25 2020 6:48 pm wow!! I really super duper missed him. I wish I could jump and jump here in my office right now because i found out about this.. super duper love it .

michael May 25 2020 7:11 am Caught me off-guard. Quite funny and worth to watch

Eaint May 25 2020 3:24 am Cha taehyun oppa is so handsome.I love that drama..

Sue May 25 2020 3:23 am Excellent drama! Highly recommand it..

Shanks May 04 2020 9:56 am At first I was like meh not gonna watch this drama. But then I saw the writer is Lee Yoo Jin :D Writer of my all time favorite crime drama The Missing ›o‹ Didn't expect comedy to be her next project but I hope it's good

taehyunfan May 01 2020 11:07 pm omg i'm so excited the teasers are so funnnn i cannot wait i love cha tae hyun he's the beeesttttt

Melania Apr 30 2020 6:53 pm Yes.... Can't wait....

GG Mar 25 2020 11:05 am Sunbun s character name same as Son Hye Kyo in DotS

Dee Feb 27 2020 7:37 am When i heard BGM for the 2nd teaser, i get a strong vibe that either CTH-shi choose this song by himself for comedy purpose or maybe the director-nim is a fan of the singer.. ? But i hope this drama has a balance in crime n comedy so not to draggy.

Bruce Jan 19 2020 8:06 am Cha tae hyun as detective! Wow so excitating......

Nadia Nov 24 2019 7:21 am I like story plotttttt????

ilovemassu Nov 18 2019 10:44 pm I'm so excited!! hope no romantic otp between the leads because that got to be an awkward thing to see on screen

Lee lee Nov 13 2019 5:13 am Can't wait ^^. Cha tae hyun figthing!!!

x Nov 12 2019 5:49 am hmm a very random and unexpected pairing tho but we'll see how their chemistry plays out in this drama i guess
