I don't have much to say about 《To My Beloved Thief》 (《은애하는 도적님아》) other than these (no spoilers, promise):

• Body switch was not overused. It was like it was written by the global experts in the body swap genre: the Thai writers.

• Perfect balance of romance, political intrigue, comedy, drama, and twists. Something we rarely see from K-drama productions the past half a decade.

• No wasted scene. Every scene matters.

• No filler episodes. All 16 episodes are important.

• All actors did not disappoint. It was not exaggerated nor underwhelming.

It's a story, acting, and execution that we've known in K-drama when the industry was revived in 2000. High quality. Memorable.
