Nam Han-joon (Seo In-guk) is a former criminal profiler who pretends to be a shaman to swindle people out of money and uses Cafe Minamdang as his headquarters of operation. He has a gift for reading people’s facial expressions and body language to appear like the spirit is speaking to him, and leans on his little sister Nam Hye-joon (Kang Mi-na), an expert hacker, to solidify his claims. As he’s investigating a hit-and-run case involving one of his client’s husbands, he is introduced to Detective Han Jae-hee (Oh Yeon-seo), forming a slight crush on her while she investigates him, setting up a cat-and-mouse game for the series.Café Minamdang Season 1 Download.
What Shows Will It Remind You Of? With Nam Han-joon’s criminal background and ability to read people on a surface-level, the show feels a little reminiscent to the fun Matt Bomer vehicle White Collar. There are also shades of Killing Eve, especially with the cat-and-mouse game between a detective and a criminal she can’t seem to shake.While the premise of the show seems fun and entertaining, it is unfortunately a little bit undercooked. The main issue is that Nam Han-joon feels like an extremely self-obsessed person, and the characterization comes off more like a caricature than anything else.
He’s a bit goofy but not in an endearing way, and his shaman character is played for more laughs than actually realistic, making all of the people who fall for his tricks also seem equally silly.At a few points in the show, characters are shown to have supernatural strength — running fast and scaling buildings. But the show fails to set up the world as one in which people with unnatural abilities exist, and those moments feel more jarring than exciting.
