I really enjoyed this series. It's a light-heart comedy with a sprinkle of mysteries. The episodic cases were not that intriguing, but the way the team carries out their investigation was fun to watch. The drama tried to focus on the value of family and friendship (there were parts where it was very heart-warming), but  it kinda fizzled out near the end. The characters were all quirky and funny; very lovable. Their chemistry with one another is just amazing.

I really like the twist of having handsome guys turn to old grandpas. Seeing the grandpa doing things that young 20's something guys normally do was freaking hilarious! My favorite character would be Kang-seok (The Muscle) played by Jang Gwang. He was so adorable, cute and will make you LOL all the time!

The only fault of this show is the length. It was just too short. Given the plot & setting, I felt like they could have done much better if it was a 20 episodes series. There were holes every where with the story & characters. We were introduced to some of the characters' background, but they were never fully elaborated & one of the guys didn't even have a real background! Aside from Joon-hyuk, there was little character development for the others. Even with Joon-hyuk, I felt his changes were so sudden. It was a bit hard to believe, but eh.

This is my first time seeing Heechul act in a series. Given that he is an idol I didn't expect much from his character, but he played his part well. His character Jung-woo was pretty much similar to his idol's personality in real life.  It was not until the very end where I thought: "I would like to see more of Heechul's acting in future drama." The only complaint I have about his character is that Jung-woo was too perfect. He didn't have any flaws! He was just as smart as Joon-hyuk in solving the cases, his personality was charming and easy to get along with compared to Won-bin - who essentially was suppose to be the "charmer." When the guys were still in their young bodies, Jung-woo looked so out of place with his small, feminine frame when standing with the others.  

Anyhow, lacking as it may have been, the series was still fun to watch just for the laughs, bromance and great acting from the ajusshi.  I would give this a 7/10. If you don't care much for the lousy plot and awkward romance, then I would recommend you watch this. Watch it for the grandpas. :]
