Korean Drama "Inspector Koo" has a truly dynamic duo. Though, to be fair, Miss Koo herself is a delightful mess. But K too was intriguing and a complex character that, alas, was not well explored and left half baked in the end.

But, first thing first. The main story is pretty entertaining, filled with action, and with an interesting take when it came to explaining the events in a theatrical way. However, things got bleak quickly and overcomplicated towards the ending.

The two leading ladies, on the other hand, were incredible together. They had chemistry and their interactions were something to look forward in each episode, other than their individual arcs. The other side characters were interesting as well, not matching the main leads, but being fairly complex themselves.

Finally, the performances were all enjoyable and great by everyone.

So, overall, 7 out of 10.

I am totally in love. She is the most impressive person I have ever seen since Arnold and ABBA. Yes I am old, like that hehehe. But this is good. So good. I am only onto episode 2, but I am so impressed. So much fun, so impressive I just have to say Thank You for this.

I really appreciate its style but the plot was sacrificing way too much in favor of its supposed black comedy. Sure the drama had its high moments where the comedy really shined but the endless 12 episodes chase was exhausting and poorly executed. At least there's more to like about it, the drama had a good selection of soundtracks that amplified its stylistic moments. I wish this drama was a movie, it would have been a lot more fitting for what it had to offer. Anyway, the drama seems to be an accurate representation of Lee Young Ae's long hiatuses. You may give it a shot for a fresh watch...

Inspector Koo, or A Wonderful Sight is cleverly written and fairly stylish. The performances are all good-to-excellent, especially the leads. The best Korean comedy/drama? Perhaps not, but I have never seen a show have its imdb rating score swoop about so much!

At this time of writing, 88 out of 117 viewers rating it gave it a score of 7 or higher, with the largest group by far giving it a "10". Yet it now stands at 6.6, which might put future audiences from giving the show a try. Give it a try, anyway, I say.

There are claims it is trying to be a Korean version of Killing Eve. In a way, it's closer in feel to Sherlock. Not at that level of quality, but in the sense of it using graphics and structure to tell a story about a deeply flawed detective using almost superhuman skills to track a killer of near-supervillainous talent.

Inspector Koo is a fun play on manga comic books, and has some great comic moments. I would actually rate it a 7ish but felt there should be something countering its low score.

This is so nice to see Lee Yeong-ae surrounded by amazing cast and display her talent as a serious, clever and funny character. This is a refreshing portrait of a drunk devasted detective ! Original as all the clues come and go. We appreciate all the roles and it is cool to see this gang becoming attached to each others. Lee Yeong-ae is perfect and the outfit is legendary. We get more in 1 season than we usually get from other series, this shows how generous korean series are ! This serie has some flaws but overall it Is so pleasant to watch that it is ok.
