To Catch a Smuggler (2020)
These officers are unbearable!
This show is definitely interesting and a good pastime watch, but dear god the show makes these officers looks like unbearable people. This show somehow manages to make me feel bad for the travelers.
These officers hound and harass these foreign nationals on a "hunch" and drive up the most ridiculous line of questioning for these people and wonder why they're acting suspicious. There is an extreme lack of empathy and people skills from these officers it almost makes it unbearable to watch. Never in my life would I wish these interactions on someone else! Sending people home cause their stories don't add up to them, or questioning people for hours because they're fidgeting with their bag/looking suspicious is ridiculous. I get they're just doing their job but have some empathy! The show is also extremely edited beyond belief. Good watch but these officers are very unlikable.

Show has potential but misses the mark
The plot for the show seems pretty interesting and the first few episodes were off to a good start, but i could not get past the god awful acting. It comes off as borderline cringey especially from the main actress. The acting feels super forced and there's little to no chemistry between the leads. Could've been a great series if not foiled by bad acting...

Must watch, really
I'm really not a huge fan of stereotypical korean romance dramas cause I find them kinda corny and shallow but this drama is a masterpiece. From the acting to the story line and the individual characters there's nothing I can complain about. It's so refreshing to see healthy non-toxic relationships portrayed in a drama, they're mature, realistic and makes you feel like you're watching something genuine. All of the characters even the supporting cast are so complex and interesting and they each have their own uniqueness. This is truly one of my all time favorite dramas I laughed and cried so much, I hope everyone gives it a watch!
