Kdrama Llama Feb 24 2026 3:29 am If you’re a fan of KDramas and enjoyed the Oceans 11 films then this is the show for you. It’s really entertaining and has a great ensemble casting all round but shout out to the FL and what is probably my favourite role I’ve seen Yoon Park in as the FLs probation officer.

A weird detail, but the thing that will probably stay with me the longest is the way the baddie tied his ties, he deserves the ending he got for crimes against fashion!

Fullheart5 Dec 10 2025 1:52 pm Always read reviews. This drama has such a mix of good and bad, I find that I start to ignore reviews and watch for myself………………but I will say that those who torch the show with their prior prejudices of the actors should just not bother watching because it appears they cannot be objective about the story….just don’t watch the show and ruin for others.

I have already watched three episodes and fine it quite interesting, so I will continue.

Nik Oct 18 2025 6:00 pm non-boring drama, thrilling, they don't rush the plot in the last episodes and there's also a good end! I feel like repeating, but again: fantastic cast and characters! Besides the main cast, the supporting cast is top, too !

I was looking at some neagtive comments while writing. Every drama has some weak spots and weird characters where you might think "why?" or "why not do [that] instead" and of course, you could easily extend this drama to 50 episodes and add more cons and their preparations, but for me it was a great watch with no regrets and the weak spots are really not important at all here.

If you haven't watched it yet, you will not regret watching it now ^^

Aozora Sep 20 2025 9:23 am This drama is good watch, although some of the plots are very weak, like many k-dramas.

However, the main character is interesting played by Chun Wo-hee (I have to search her name here) who is also very good which I remember I have only seen in The Wailing and Han Gong Ju. I will defintely watch more of her productions.

Ellen Sep 13 2025 8:24 am This is such a clever thrilling drama. Was watching for Yoon Park who is great. But I never thought the unassuming Kim Dong Wook, the ordinary looking guy would do dominate the narrative, but he does. He’s surprisingly amazing. On episode 9 and can’t imagine the ending yet!

Ellen Sep 10 2025 9:23 am This is an intriguing drama, very well cast and acted. Yoon Park is always great but the FL did a good job with a difficult role. Kim Dong Wook is an uninteresting looking guy who somehow pulls off his roles, always acts the same. The plot is clever and unexpected twists keep you watching. Studying evil and the psychology behind it is difficult to understand but compelling and this series tackles it very well. There’s a reason for everything. K drama always has the childhood flashbacks and trauma but in this, it was necessary. Good job by everyone and congrats on using experienced and clever actors and director. Much better than getting K-pop idols who can sing and dance but not act.

Zeila Jul 28 2025 6:11 pm Enjoyed. Lots of great actors throughout. IDK why people are whining about Chun Woo-hee. She is a fine actress. I thought she brought this character really to life. She grew up having to wipe out all human emotions...that's why she talks and acts that way if you really watched the whole show. She has great facial expressions. Like another poster, glad they did not bring a love relationship into it. Would have ruined the whole thing. Poor Ringo. I can't believe he is still alive after all the beatings and knifings his poor body has taken. Na Sa too. Great character played by a really good actor. Kim Tae Hoon has been a favorite actor of mine for a long time. Now he always plays bad guys...sigh.

Juliette Jul 26 2025 11:24 am Love the serie, regards to all the actors a specially to KD-W, KT-W handsome guys

avery Jul 26 2025 8:10 am it started off underwhelming but it improves along the way. ringo & nasa did so well that i really sympathised with them. i'm glad the romance was very minimal & the storyline focused more on their plans. but i was hoping for ringo & dajeong to be together hehe.

the grooming & gaslighting part done well too. i totally recommend this. 8/10 (:

Magda USA Jul 23 2025 1:35 am I don’t understand what all the negative remarks are about! But of course everyone has an opinion. I thought it was Excellent! Fantastic! Fun! Intriguing! But! Also hard at times for what those young ones went through! Great plot! And great cast of very good actors and actress! Loved them all! For me and many friends who saw it and highly loved it and recommend it! I do the same! 5 Stars for every area of this series! Will be arch again!

Park Min May 01 2024 9:52 pm The drama fell short of its promising premise, stumbling through a maze of poorly executed plotlines and lackluster character development. It didn't take more than a few episodes, after the first couple of cases, to show its cracks, the narrative was disjointed, as if the writers couldn't decide which direction to take. Once the main case with Kyung Ja & Jay was brought to the front, the story went haywire. The drama failed to maintain a cohesive storyline after that. The main antagonists motivations were a total joke of a writing, let alone, the unhinged obsession of an adult over a little girl. While it's clear the creators aimed for a clever blend of mystery and drama, the execution fell flat, leaving more frustration than entertainment.

My perfect stranger >>> Sep 14 2023 1:49 am A pretty mid drama. I would give it 5.5/10. Not recommended.

Almost dropping the drama in the beginning but hold on for kim dong wook.

Saya Sep 03 2023 4:50 pm Still watching I like the plot but somehow finds the female lead annoying and the way she speaks like robot

Rabu rabu Aug 30 2023 2:05 pm Replying to Josephine : It's Hyundai Grandeur or Azera

Isla Aug 16 2023 1:44 am I don't usually finish dramas that has annoying main characters but I made an exception for this.

It wasn't exactly an amazing drama but the main characters were failing all their plans throughout the entire time that I wanted to know who the real villain is, hence, I had to finish it.

I'd honestly give this 5/10.

The romance between the main characters was so forced I could almost puke everytime they're together. The male lead was probably the stupidest character in the entire show. I had to pause the scenes where he gives shitty advice and talks about justice and law.

The only gripping thing about this drama is guessing who the hidden president is.

Josephine Aug 08 2023 12:24 pm What car does Han Moo Yound use please?

Maya Amin Aug 06 2023 5:40 am I watch for yoon park, calangeoooo ❤️

Jestine29 Aug 01 2023 5:02 pm How come Kim Dong Wook is destined to have a father who kills a family member of the person he loves ? both in Delightfully Deceitful and Perfect Stranger ???

Captain Cha Jul 29 2023 8:31 am How did we deserve 2 excellent dramas in one year from KDW and it's just July? Hahaha I just want to say that the chemistry between Yoon Park and Sojin is though the roof! Amazing!

Jestine29 Jul 29 2023 5:55 am First time to see Chun Woo-hee in a drama and she is something❤️ how does Kim Dong-wook make two great dramas in a year? He is amazing!

Jojoanna Jul 20 2023 10:24 pm Just started on this series and now on episode 4. Very interesting plot and each episode has a certain unexpected twist. Only thing is I so want to just get rid of the Probation Officer Go Yo-Han who doesn't seem to know his boundary. He do things the way he wants and likes and not only he doesn't seem to know his boundary, he does not respect others boundary or personal space. Hoping Ro-Woom would do something to him big time so he is total out of the picture once and for all. Who is he to forced entry into Lawyer Han Moo-Young residence...even when Lawyer Han open the door since the nutcase Goo Yo-Han keeps pressing the door bell...but he should not bust into other's home and not only that he even try to look into the rooms open the fridge...this Probation Officer so need to be given a rude awakening soon. I was so hoping when Probation Officer Goo Yo-Han got into the cab, Lawyer Han would just open the back seat door pretend to get it but instead tell the cab driver to drive to the farthest police station and report harassement on the Probation Officer. Hoping he won't pop up too much hereon... Back to the dark side of Ro-Woom and semi bright side of Moo-Young

Lovethis Jul 19 2023 9:16 pm I love this drama... I will mis it...

Aurora Jul 19 2023 9:02 am Surely the most delightful ending of any drama series I've or we've ever watched. Love how the writer made right all the wrongs commited directly by the evil and crooked organisation and indirectly by an uncaring society. Having said that, I wish the pace was quicker and more exciting...could have finished in 12 episodes.

Aimen Jul 19 2023 3:17 am Hands down, one of the best dramas of this year... Kim DongWook woke up in 2023 and decided to deliver us 2 best dramas .......

I'm sooooo gonna miss this cast sm.....

A complete 10/10 drama for me..

Highly Recommended

Luna Jul 18 2023 10:29 pm SPOILERS. One of the best ending in kdrama land. I am sooo satisfied. Everything went well. I even cried during their trial. I don’t know, perhaps I was touched by the statements of the Psychiatrist and Lawyer Han. After a long fight, finally Ro Um and her team won. I’m very happy for them as if this happened in real life. Romance is missing but it’s fine. I love it no matter what and I’m gonna miss it. Thank you for giving us such amazing drama. Saranghae! ❤️

Rpa Jul 16 2023 9:30 pm This drama is strange in a good way!! I think new writer nim did a good job!! And hope for a happy ending!!

hjh Jul 12 2023 8:37 pm Bastard J should go to hell I swear!! And that flash kiss at last was so sweet hahaha Mooyoung face like @0@ lol!!!

Luna Jul 12 2023 6:59 pm This drama was surely unpredictable. Every episode would give you exciting twist. I’m so sad for Ro Um. I wish she gets the justice and better ending she deserves. Jebaaal

GreatWD Jul 11 2023 1:54 pm What a cast of adult abusers: Jang Kyung-Ja, Jay, Shin Ki-Ho, An Chae-Hong, and the Messenger. Interesting plot how to abuse innocent children who were smart.

Dihit Jul 11 2023 9:59 am Wow what an exciting episode!! I think it is a mix of many genres and okay to watch when eating noodles after work!!

TyiA Jul 10 2023 8:23 pm Hmmm I don't think that man is chairman!! He must be work for Chairman, but not Real Chairman!! Or Maybe Chairman was too old and died, so he took over all!!!

Ol Jul 10 2023 7:04 pm Kim dong wook needs to learn to emote better. He always talks like a robot with zero expressions.

KMB Jul 06 2023 7:26 am Besides being pretty, FL's character isn't much of a genius or con artist as she was supposed to be. And their schemes are so technically unsound. Poor writing and casting. ML is supposed to be over sensitive and empathetic...sure does not display those traits. He just rambles on in a boring tone.

^.^ Jul 05 2023 8:24 am Hm I think Chairman is a man!! Anw, it has nice teamwork!! Twist plot coming!!!

Luna Jul 04 2023 10:33 pm Daebak! I’m so amazed how the whole team executed their plan every time. Good job! And I have to say Lee Tae Ran always steal the show with her stunning look and outstanding performance.

Zalan Jul 03 2023 9:48 pm @Ghaian : hmm it is drama Find Me in Your Memory, not Find you in my memory!!!

Ghaian Jul 03 2023 9:51 am Wow here comes Moon Ga Yeong from Find you in my memory drama will make a cameo next ep!!!

sy Jul 02 2023 6:55 am I'm hooked!!!! Definitely started to become a Huuggee fan of Chun Woo-Hee after this show :] I'm really curious to who the president will be, I think it is one of the characters we already know! also looking forward to the romance between roum and mooyoung :) favourite drama of the year,, chun woohee acts Soo Well and she's so pretty

^.* Jul 01 2023 9:27 am Maybe weekday dramas are not invested well like weekend hot dramas even though some dramas have more episodes! Anyway, it is ok if the plot has more twists that I think we will get soon in upcoming eps in July!!!

Eyoo Jun 30 2023 11:27 pm Tried to watch until ep3. But the storyline keep getting bored and bored. Like so much their actors, nice try for every explanation that LRW do.

Sui Jun 29 2023 2:29 am I agree that Lee Tae Ran is really shining here!!

Aaron Jun 29 2023 1:39 am This series has been exceptionally cast, all actors seem to fit their roles perfectly. I am thoroughly impressed. One actress whom I feel completely steals every scene she is in, which is not an easy feat, is Lee Tae-ran. What a great, captivating, actress Tae-ran is. The only thing I dislike is the fact this series is 16 episodes long. I feel that is a disservice to such a well written story and great cast.

Luna Jun 28 2023 6:50 pm At this point, I guess Attorney Han already developed feelings with Ro Um. He cares for her not because of his illness. He genuinely loves her ❤️❤️ Aww. Can’t wait to see the next episodes. (:

Un modeste admirateur Jun 28 2023 6:48 pm «Delightfully Deceitful» is my favourite drama among the rare I’ve seen this year. Intelligently written, masterfully filmed, exquisitely acted. I love the contrast between two main characters, one being too empathetic, and the other lacking any empathy. Depending on the moment, as a human, I can recognize myself in both. Because the lawyer is too much of an idealist for his own good, it is beneficial that there is a crook to bring him back to earth. It creates a comic tension in an otherwise dark drama. Kim Dong-Wook is absolutely classy in the role of the lawyer: he reminds me of the award-winning actor Kim Myung-Min, who also excels in righteous roles.

Ika Jun 28 2023 9:18 am I knew it!! The prosecutor who saved Moo Young's life as a teen is suspicious.. i wonder why he's investigating the case too

BKM Jun 28 2023 9:02 am Ang Nae Sang's role as dead girl's father seems a little small for his calibre

Uda Jun 28 2023 1:44 am Now Who is friend? Who is Enemy? They are exchanging spies for each other or what lol

Hiio Jun 26 2023 9:12 pm It Seems that they wil start the Real Fraud and Revenge from here!! Dragging state is coming with the chairman jeokmok!!! But now Mooyoung is the lead haha hwaiting Mooyoung team!!!

deana Jun 26 2023 9:14 am the probationer police is so annoying. i hate everytime he appeared on screen.

Jestine29 Jun 24 2023 6:28 pm Whooohooooo! Kim Dong Wook slaying 2023!!! Two dramas in a year! Both in leading character.

Pheww Jun 21 2023 11:29 pm So after ep 8 it is confirmed this is mouse 2.0 with same villain and a female character.

Btw how did han moo young find out her location.

Yohan's mom seems to be the president and that psychologist like literally is she releasing details of patients? If true then hope that b.tch rots in jail for violating medical laws. She irritates me a lot assuming she is a traitor.

Turian Jun 21 2023 6:27 am I really love how the male lead protect whom he loves!! He is warm like a brother!! I envy her haha!! If he has great empathy or not, it is sure Love after all :D

Sila Jun 21 2023 4:30 am Yess maybe She is the Chairman or The Park Lawyer!!!

Lo Jun 20 2023 7:10 pm That old woman dining with yohan is the president right?

Sia Jun 20 2023 6:24 am Hmmm Who do you think Chairman Jeokmok is? I think that is someone appeared and we know him maybe!!!

tueta Jun 16 2023 12:00 am The casts are not so famous but I see that they did a good work to make this drama more exciting!! Visuals are also very fine :p

Rel Jun 14 2023 3:05 pm Someone wrote below the drama is dragging, i dont think so, it could as lot of dramas do like perfect stranger but this one is yet to slow down and keeping the pace and suspence, however, what is irritating me is the curiosity about yohans character, who is he what is he? As in enough with shallow filler scenes with yoon park, gjve this dude meatier role now he deserves it he is such an artist.

Dranus Jun 14 2023 9:34 am So they are supposed to be enemies but will turn out to be partners in crimes now and maybe lovers soon?!!:p

Tyana Jun 13 2023 11:58 pm Yes it is going to the middle part of the drama aka dragging plot part!!(almost happened to 16-ep dramas recently) Anyway, I hope they can handle it well and not drag it too much!!!Thannks

Baekhyun04 Jun 13 2023 11:13 am Love this series/drama! There’s a drought of good kdrama nowadays and was so happy that this one delivered. Watching “Perfect Strangers” starring Kim Dong-Wook also. His dramas are airing in the same day and both dramas are really good.

Aaron Jun 12 2023 1:26 am This is the first Korean show/drama I've watched. I was just looking for more work from actress Chun Woo Hee and, to my surprise the first episode aired the day before. Tuned in to the first episode and now I'm hooked. I love this series so far and Chun Woo Hee is such a great and beautiful actress, I find myself anxiously waiting for the next episode.

trebuchette Jun 12 2023 12:47 am Kim Dong Wook and Yoon Park again haha

iwannnn Jun 10 2023 10:24 am chun woo hee is so beautiful here and she play many characters with many fashion style, nice... this drama is really my cup of tea, about conig artists and the female is heroine

Sideview Jun 08 2023 9:10 pm Indeed she the female lead has trauma in the past and be a profraud now but I don't think she kills!!! I hope male lead will help her control her evil side!!

Luna Jun 08 2023 5:41 pm I just watched episode 1 and I got interested. This kind of drama is my cup of tea. I only wish it will not turn out like ‘Mouse’. I dropped that drama coz it gave me nightmares. The male lead was a total psycho and his way of killing people was horrifying. I hope this drama will not end up like that. Please writer don’t make us hate the female lead.

KingA Jun 08 2023 4:19 pm The first three episodes reminds me of the psychological thriller Japanese manga "Monster." That series was creepy as hell. It also has experimented with kids by removing all their emotions. I'm loving the fl lead. Her first scene in ep 1 really had me, "Oh, I like her already, and I'm gonna love her more." Looking forward!

Chatyu Jun 07 2023 11:32 pm Lawyer Jo Jae Hoon is so cute too haha

ccc Jun 07 2023 11:43 am Oh god the psycho ahjumma who plans the whole experiment shit in drama mouse is the same actress who was dining with go yo han. Yohan does give creepy vibes sometimes, it seems his goofy persona is a cover but i dont think he is a bad guy. This drama is actually quite good and deserves more love. Chun woo hee is so criminally beautiful and her acting is extremely good. All 3 leads and roums friends are doing perfect acting. Too bad people are sleeping on this show.

Aeurma Jun 07 2023 4:38 am I hope that handsome and weird Go Yo Han has no related to that bad organization that put experiments on genius kids!! Because I already fall in love with him haha sorry!!! He is a psychopath or simple chaebol guy who want to learn how poor people and frauds live

.. Jun 07 2023 2:50 am This drama has you are my spring and mouse like feel. Roum could be a lab rat for some higher ups like seung gi's character in mouse.

turiya Jun 06 2023 10:53 am It is true that he was adopted at 10!! Still don't get why the story when like that though...Anyway, the male lead is going to turn bad or what?! Like his great empathy makes him like her and go into the wrong way?!! Come on man, I know she is pretty, but fraud is too much for a lawyer! He must be a INFP I gues hmmm

Why Jun 06 2023 8:19 am Thank you Aryu for reply but i dont think she gave him away at 3. I think wasn't this thing the highlight point of the case that she gave away her aduloscent child for adoption? Or maybe i missed the detail you mentioned because i had thought she gave him up at 15 16, also when the female lead was blaming the mom before moo young i had thought she was doing it because of the same reason that she gave away a grown up child for adoption. Something about the case seems missing.

Aryu Jun 06 2023 6:40 am @Why : Maybe she gave her kid to her friend to raise when he was 3 because she had much hard situations to raise him by herself *sigh* Since he has a life insurance for 15years, they(evil adopt family) have been waiting for him turn 18 to kill hin and get insurance money!! So cruel indeed!! Ofc his birth mom made a wrong choice, and she regrets it so much now!! But our female lead, by someway, got money back like a fraud lol:)))

Why Jun 06 2023 5:47 am Could someone explain why restaurabt ahjumma gave away her 18 year old son for adoption what was the reason? Wasnt he already almost an adult. Dis someone understand it and can explain? Thankyou

Zxlione Jun 04 2023 9:03 pm Yeah another week is coming!! Time really flies fast ;)))

iwanz Jun 04 2023 7:03 am finally. a crime drama with female heroine as conwoman ... tagteam with law enforcer. this is my taste.... chun woo hee look pretty and badass here

Ian Jun 02 2023 3:59 pm Makao If you dont get it... Then you must see till the end for the answer

Leo Jun 02 2023 2:04 pm Amazing show n cast. So whos the killer?

Woo hee Jun 02 2023 12:04 pm Chun woo hee back to playing her fav dark characters

Thread Jun 02 2023 7:22 am So after getting out of jail, she should live a quiet life and forget about her ten-year prison times and her parents death right? Like a scaredy cat?? You guys can not get how she felt huh :))) Or she should knee down and beg for his help?!! She was in prison for ten years for 10years since her teenager, you hope her to be a polite lady now shhh

Kepo Jun 01 2023 10:15 am i don't like the character of female lead. She's so annoying because apathetic, ohh poor my moo young

Aresa Jun 01 2023 6:17 am Yoon Park is super handsome in this drama! Besides, the plot is interesting and unpredictable!! But I guess it always hasca real mastermind behind it after all....

Tiiani May 31 2023 11:25 pm It is a bit dark but still romantic!! I hope to see the transformation of female lead soon and love line between our main leads:))))) She will go from black to grey and white maybe

Joe May 31 2023 6:49 pm Is this drama available in the US??

Mayra May 31 2023 9:28 am Maybe she learned the list and remembered his name but in the past, the show just give numbers on participants, not their names! She recognized him by heart, if you know what i means...

Genius May 31 2023 8:00 am Given her beyond human memory, I'm sure she remembers Moo Young's name even if not the face...and that's why she picked him to represent her.

Arie May 31 2023 7:23 am It is just 2 eps, and I already see it exciting!!! If you were locked in jail during ten years and you really did nothing bad, then the first thing you will do after get out just like her, get revenge on people who made you suffer!!

Ratu May 31 2023 4:26 am Is Jeokmok Red Eyes Organization??

AV May 31 2023 4:15 am Do you guys remember flashback parts? I think they are all in male lead's brain when he was a kid and met her, while she obviously does not recognize him at all! With a person with so much sympathy like our male lead, he must have felt sorry for her being in prison for 10years, since they knew each other before and he could not protect her at broadcast station!! And now, he even Believes that she is Not guity!! Maybe we see female lead hateful, but male lead doesn't lol!!!

Makao May 31 2023 3:00 am From the beginning i was excited cause of ML.. but on half of 2nd eps I cant stand with this drama anymore.. annoyed w/ FL Character and I don’t get why the ML still want to defend a FL that is problematic and hard to work with? I’ll drop this drama and continue watching the other drama. Bye

sf May 31 2023 12:30 am The female lead character is antipathetic. She doesn't give the feeling of a person who spent ten years in prison being innocent. She is more like, "You are under my command, do what I say".

Radi May 30 2023 8:36 pm Red Eye organization turned her into a killer?!!

VS May 30 2023 10:34 am Oh Every character has dark side in them!!

ghianb May 30 2023 7:58 am Ep 1 is quite good! I think they will fall in love soon regardless of their oppsite character lol!! I want to see a mature but ronantic love ok guys because they have Reversed charm maybe

Gemmy1992 May 30 2023 2:34 am The first episode was so good ...the acting level is high notched from all the cast...definitely KDW is carrying the korean dramas in these last years .... definitely a very talented actor .. The female leader is the surprise of the show this is the first I saw her and she is goood .. Let's hope that next episodes will be as entertaining as the first one

jkay May 29 2023 6:55 am Gang Kid team hwaiting!!! I love dramas with good teamwork to be against injustice!!! Just like Karma team in Joo Won drama Stealer!:p

Naman May 28 2023 7:05 am Can't wait to see Woohee to become a real baddass unnie??!!!!

Cha May 24 2023 3:54 am Im going to watch this for Sojin ?????

Aimen May 11 2023 12:10 pm Kim DongWook is Literally giving us two Perfectly amazing dramas in such a short time....Woahhhhh!!!! Love him sm...??

Mariaaa28 May 08 2023 7:34 am Kim Dong Wook and Yoon Park reunion ❤️ my current favorite actress Lee Yeon is here, too.

Jkkimkim May 01 2023 9:11 pm Kim Dong Wook is acting in two dramas airing in May!! What a big gift for his fans omgg! Fyi, he is not too handsome and famous as Lee Dong Wook (who has drama will air in May too), but he is really genius acting, esp in dark romance dramas or mystery psychological dramas!! Actually we have Kim Dong Wook in beginning of week and Lee Dong Wook in the weekend ok you guys!! :D

a Apr 30 2023 9:47 pm Yoon Park is in it. so auto watch

seol Apr 26 2023 1:09 pm This sounds big I miss this type of dramas. Can't wait

FML Apr 20 2023 9:49 pm OMG Chun Woohee in a very different role this time, so excited!

Elaine Apr 19 2023 11:08 am I hope this isn't a romcom but given the descriptions of his afflictions he gets it sounds like it will be played for comedy. I hope it turns out to be a drama ... it sounds interesting as a serious drama.

Mundang Gor Apr 12 2023 10:44 pm Finally I can watch again ahjussi from drama Goblin, I am missing him so much, Lee Dong Wook fighting !!! You are really handsome Lee Dong Wook !!!

sheniah Feb 28 2023 2:19 am what's the genre of this? is this romcom?
