> A messy and comedy thriller spy drama with cute kids and a sitter. Terrius had a lot of issues that kept it from being perfect, but I can also see how it would be easy for someone to go in expecting a comedy and not looking for plot holes to thoroughly enjoy it. First and foremost, this is a comedy drama, and the spy and action stuff is kind of thrown in as an afterthought. There are a lot of plot holes and a good dose of bad writing, but for the most part, the characters genuinely are easy to love and root for. The spy stuff was ridiculous and mostly unbelievable, and the twists were obvious from very early on ; even for a novice viewer. It was just flat out funny! Not all of the time, but enough that it kept the story moving at a fast pace and helped disguise some of the little plot holes that were cropping up everywhere STORY ------- As I stated above, do not take this drama and it's story-line too seriously. Just go with the flow and you will enjoy it more. I am not saying that the story was bad it just had its moments where it seemed very farfetched and messy, some parts even were a little predictable for it being a spy drama. If you don't look that much into it, you will find the story to be charming, exciting, funny and adorable all at the same time. It is a fun ride to be on. Funny enough, but speaking of funny here's come the bad news: lack of details makes the national intelligence service seems like a ordinary security company. Too many things are off; I mean, how a secret agent can say their (true) name blatantly to a (surprise! knowingly) suspected person? How can a fugitive be effortlessly(?) popular among the ahjummas with his (stubbornly) stoic act, stay unidentified? I mean, at least he can disguise himself well, if he tends to mingle with those ahjummas instead of just keep his stoic act alll along, which is make him more stand out on that apartment's neighborhood. I wonder, is this drama really about the national intelligence that related to a Nation? Despite the lack of details, they spread the humor here and there that make this drama somewhat continuously entertaining in its each episode. CAST ----- MY favorite characters HANDS DOWN in this drama was the Ahjumma group and Jin Young Tae surprisingly (I found him to be annoying at first). I thought the actors did a great job and the drama was casted well. First, the extended cast is just hilarious. It wasn’t hard not to fall for all of the side characters. The kids were adorable, the KIS squad was hilarious and even the NIS team is a bit of comedy troupe' . Ji-Hub and In-Sun don't run this show ; [spoiler] they are not even a couple and its a sin to tag this as romance-comedy as the writes gave up romance midway. [spoiler]. VERDICT ---------- Even though this drama was messy and all over the place, you can't help but fall for its charms. It was a drama that didn't take itself to seriously and had action, comedy, and a little romance. If you hate plot holes and need more than a subtle hint of romance, take a pass. If you can suspend disbelief and not take a drama very seriously, this might be for you! And man, there was a lot of product placement in this drama, so be ready.
