Secret Royal Inspector Joy

Secret Royal Inspector and Joy is a joy to watch! Kpop singer/rapper Taecyeon of 2PM is also a respected actor. I first became aware of him through his work on Vincenzo. His chemistry in this series with beautiful spunky actress Kim Hye Yoon is a winner! Together they are an unbeatable team solving mysteries and intrigue at the Royal court! 2021 is the comeback year for 2PM and another winner in the actor department!!

I came across this show and thought that title was interesting and started watching it. So glad that I did. This is one gem of a show. The comedy sprinkled in between and the funny moments are on-point. It's like they knew they were being goofy and funny and wanted us to know as well. It works for the show and makes it a good watch.

The lead actors have a great chemistry. Both Kim Hye-Yoon and Ok Taecyeon played their characters skillfully. Both portrayed all the aspects/emotions of their characters and did justice to them. Very believable in terms of chemistry and emotions. I thoroughly enjoyed the show and look forward to both the actors future work. The supporting cast is great as well. This series works and is a good happy watch.

A royal inspector Ra Ian, played by Ok Taec-yeon has more interest in cooking than carrying out his royal duties. He is despatched to investigate the disappearance of another royal inspector and along the way gets involved in a small town dispute where an independent woman Kim Joy played by Kim Hye-yoon is seeking a divorce. They end up becoming involved with each other and investigating various crimes, one of which goes to the very top of the royal court. It is an interesting story from the Joseon period with great sets and costumes. The acting from the entire cast is good but what lets it down is the failure in the writing. The storyline seems to lack cohesion and you never feel involved with any of the characters or their story lines.

My rating is 8 only because if lee jae kyoon. Remove this guy's perfect acting from the series the drama drops to 5 or 6 for me.

Park tae soo kept me going. His eyes said it all.

An extremelyyy underrated actor. Desperate to see him in a lead role!

Other than that, story was a bit disconnected Starting episodes were funny up till 6th or so. Then drama lost all continuity and scenes didnt fit.

Chicken fake voice of female lead was the most annoying thing.

Romance of leads was just okay. No feeling there at all.

Bromance of male lead and his two servants was good Story: 7/10 Acting: 7/10 (exclusive rating for park tae soo: 10/10) Direction: 5/10 Script: 7/10 Makeup/clothes : 9/10.

First of all, I like this storyline and characters (Riyon and joyi). Then I like the theme of Joyi character💜She is independent and fun loving girl💜 Therefore u cannot ignore other characters.
