A feel good Italian mafia comedy is hard to come by. Let alone a Korean one.
To feel good the good guys had to win. All the time. But such is not the case here. There are lots of death here. Very calculated. And many fight scenes, albeit simplified and comedic. Together with a fairly sizeable support cast. And most are really one dimensional. Only the 3-4 are somewhat fully fleshed out.
The evil ones are really evil. The slimy one stays slimy. The comedy sidekicks also. No one changed a bit except the female lead.
And there are loads of side stories. The underling brother, the treasure hunter, the hidden talents, the McGuvin , the tribute to the French Revolution, modern dance, Italian food, and even the pigeon gets to be hero for a day.
It's entertaining, but this is just pass your time tv drama, at its best.
