It's great storyline. Great cast, n incredible acting.. I amazed how come it is sooo underrated... It's not your typical predictable thriller.. just when u think oh this is going to happen... The story keeps evolving in a very interesting manner..

Oceans 11 + Mad Dog + Bad Guys = This Show

I was looking for something exciting to watch and recently became a fan of Seo In-Guk, so this fit the bill. I was pleasantly surprised by this show! It has a decent plot with some very likeable characters to push the story along. There were enough twists and turns to keep me interested, and I was definitely fooled a few times by the writing, which was great because I can usually predict plot lines. The end episode was a little confusing, but overall I got the point. The last few minutes seemed to point towards a season 2 (with a weird scene that didn't make a lot of sense), but considering this show aired in 2016 I'm guessing there is never going to be a season 2. I felt they definitely missed an opportunity to really use In-Guk's meatier acting skills in this, but regardless I enjoyed this series a lot.

Watch it!

Okay so unlike most people I saw 38 Task Force first and then went off to see Bad Guys and Voice - both by the same script-writer and let me tell you 38 Task Force is BY FAR the superior of the three. All three have great casts, but the Voice has plot holes like no one's business and Bad Guys, dragged towards the end with it's predictability.

There is nothing predictable about 38 Task Force - CONTINUOUSLY wowed - this felt like some Now You See Me level crazy at points and SIG paired with Dong Seok was just perfection - SIG is a bit of a Frank Abagnale character and DS is the perfect foil as the straight-laced tax man.

Seriously good watch!

Good enough

I have only one thing to say about this drama: not bad. Okay, the plot was a bit confusing at first, as it was hard to understand where the plot was heading. So, the story is this: the chief of a tax collector team has been coned and lost a lot of money. However he eventually finds the con artist who stole from him and he makes a deal with him to con a wealthy man whose connections allow him to be untouchable by the tax team. So, this drama is a bit Ocean eleven with lots and lots of twists. The romantic story was almost non existing, but the cons were clever. However, they were all about men who didn't pay there taxes, which eventually turned the drama into a tax avenger story. The performances were good and the action was quick and clever. So, 4 out of 10.
