Kwak Dong Yeon SHINES
So I'm not usually a fan of office comedies- the movie Office Space being the exception- but this one simply nails it. Originally I started watching only because KDY was the male lead (which I've been waiting for since seeing him in Love In The Moonlight) but stayed because of how brilliant it was.
At a sadly short twelve-episode run, the pace is quick but the dialogue keeps up nicely. Unlike some Western-made comedies, it doesn't rely solely on characters being nasty to one another. Instead, what bickering does occur is limited and the funniest bits come from their development through the show. There's not one wasted part or scene, and every movement lends itself to the situation at hand. Every actor carries the weight of their character with extreme skill. KDY shows his versatility by easily switching gears, but admittedly one of the best supporting roles is the actor who doesn't have to.
Honestly, this is one of the few shows I'd be eager to see a second season of, or at the least a one-time special TV movie! To anyone who loves to laugh and isn't nursing a broken rib, please give this series a shot!
