Confidence Queen

"Confidence Queen is a brilliantly crafted drama that combines wit, suspense, and heartfelt emotion. The storyline is full of clever twists that keep the audience hooked from the very first episode. The lead actress delivers a powerful performance, embodying strength, charm, and vulnerability all at once. Every scene feels stylish and engaging, with stunning cinematography and sharp dialogue that elevate the entire series. It's a refreshing show that not only entertains but also inspires confidence and resilience. Truly a must-watch for anyone who enjoys smart and empowering dramas."

I love Park Min Young but this series isn't good. The premise has potential. A team of three targets unpunished bad people with confidence scams and usually exact some financial punishment on them. Each segment takes 2 episodes. There is also an ongoing mystery about her childhood kidnapping. It's quite fun to see the costumes disguises and the clever set ups. PMY has a field day dressing up in all sorts of outfits from stewardess to doctor to movie star to hillbilly. Her two partners also have some funny disguises.

It's a bit far fetched how they can get so many involved in the deceptions. And how much it would cost to pull them off. I liked some more than others. The cosmetics one with Oh Na Ra was good. Some of the segments are tedious.

But things move slowly and often painfully unfunny. Also the costars are not attractive enough. Joo Jong Hyuk is not handsome and Park Hee Soon is old looking. Better actors as the leading men would have helped.

Not a must watch unless you are a PMY fan. PMY by the way looks great here. Not too thin at all.

This series is great, with a captivating plot, tons of fun, and a lovely Scooby-Doo vibe.

Park Min Young is splendid in this series (as always) and hilarious.

I also loved Park Hee-Soon's multifaceted character, and I shouldn't forget to mention that I laughed a lot with Joo Jong-Hyuk's character. Honestly, the entire cast, including the guest appearances, is excellent.

What can I say about a TV series with a female protagonist and 12 male protagonists in those parts there is a lot of equality between men and women, however I didn't like the TV series only for this reason it was quite disappointing in terms of the story which is very uninteresting and engaging, the series fails to do its duty that is to entertain the public! Even the characters are uninteresting! The ratings speak for themselves 5 full on IMDB.

I loved "Hustle" so when I read the synopsis, I was intrigued. When I realized it was the FL from "Marry My Husband" I was happy to see she wasn't being limited by the typical typecast.

I lost interest because:

1) While they were going after the "bad guys", they didn't try to help the last victim nor get them to face charges/be exposed in the first episode, and

2) They made FL character appear like a flighty, barely able to stay out of the institutionalized category, genius ... essentially she was a convenient one-dimensional character when she could have easily been written to have more depth.

The sets and costumes looked great. But the supporting partner characters carried the weight of revealing more about her. It was disappointing.
