Mixed-up Investigative Agency: Case 6
I need a name for our group of friends. Like the Scoobies in Buffy, or the Freaks and the Geeks in, uh, Freaks and Geeks. Any suggestions? I’m getting tired of calling them the friends, the group, the four, etc., and I don’t want to write out all the names all the time… SONG OF... More »

Mixed-up Investigative Agency: Case 5
Sorry for the extended delay! I may be a few episodes behind on Mixed-up Investigative Agency, but I do intend to keep watching the series. It continues to be fun and fresh, with dashes of unexpected humor. The group is gelling together nicely, with Eun-jae becoming more integrated with the other three. She still isn’t... More »

Mixed-up Investigative Agency: Case 4
Mixed-up Investigative Agency has turned the corner, I think — I hadn’t been ready to jump fully onboard, but now I’m fairly confident it’ll be solidly entertaining. I appreciate that the plot is layered, and reveals itself in stages. The drama also plays with format in a fun, humorous way, and while some of the... More »

Mixed-up Investigative Agency: Case 3
Mixed-up Investigative Agency is getting better. I appreciate that we’re building up to the eventual treasure hunt slowly, and it’s clear the story has been well-planned in advance, which is obvious from the way they are unfolding the multiple layers to this mystery-adventure-comedy. There’s still something not entirely “on” about the series — I’m interested,... More »

Mixed-Up Investigative Agency: Case 2
It’s kind of weird seeing Lee Minki portraying such a goofy and awkward character after his rather dashing turn as Kang Tae Bong in Dal Ja’s Spring. Having started out playing somewhat oddball characters in Taereung National Village and Really, Really Like You, one would think he’d have taken his new debonair image from Dal... More »

Mixed-Up Investigative Agency: Case 1
I’ve decided to stick with the title Mixed-Up Investigative Agency as my preferred translation for the title of KBS’s new action-comedy drama 얼렁뚱땅 흥신소, which has been translated a number of different other things, all of which I dislike. (I did kinda like one person’s translation using the word “wacky,” but I’ve got my own... More »

Lee Minki’s Mixed-Up Investigative Agency
Lee Minki’s new drama actually sounds interesting (and not just because it’s Lee Minki’s new drama) — if a bit of question mark. It’s doing something different and, dare we say, risky? Who ever heard of a kdrama without romance? But I want to see if it works… Note on the name: I’ve seen this... More »
