The drama had such a good concept to kickstart a great journey, which was also accompanied by an equally suitable cast to take on the mission. However, some problems came to light along the way. The drama was divided into 4 main sections: the beginning, the first operation, the second operation and the wrap up. For every section, except the wrap up, the drama took too long to progress and kept running in circles. The second operation part was its longest and least enjoyable one. The drama would have benefited greatly if this had been cut down to 10 episodes. The wrap up had its own problem, specifically episode 15. That's when the drama gave the characters their wake up call; however, it was done in the expected generic and cheesy way. On the other hand, the main cast were spot on with their roles and brought the characters to life. The cowardice of Ahn In Kyung is truly something to admire. I can't forget that one scene with her arms on the hips and offering her organs to be sold! Anyway, the drama was decent despite its issues.

I'm not a fan of remake so my expectations were low.

I really thought I wouldn't get past the first episode.

However, surprisingly, casting is so good that I got addicted !

I actually counted the days until SBS released the following episode !

(It was weekly)

Main characters are cleaning ladies, each ones with their own set of personal troubles.

The world of high rolling big money sharemarkets was very foreign to them ... until One of them inadvertently found that they could make more money in a day than them as cleaning ladies for a whole life.

Of course, there are huge challenges involving the dirty world of insider trading .

Great series, great casting.

I came in believing its a fun comedic romp of rags to riches thru the world of stock trading. But sadly, its about the life of a cleaning lady who desperately navigates life's downs (sorry no ups). She spends a lot of time wallowing in self pity but never realizes she's the cause of all the hardships she encounters.

Yes. She's just so cluelessly dumb and a pathological liar. She lies to everyone all the time. She's the root cause of all her problems by lying and being dumb. The bad guys, are way too cunning for her and win almost all the time and will barely lose at the very last minute.

So, front and center is the protagonist's life struggles and insider trading, which is supposed to be the meat of the show takes a huge backseat.

Korean Drama " Cleaning Up " is an interesting spy drama that showcases ordinary people in suspenseful situations.

The drama has a bumpy start, as it takes it time to settle in and present its characters. But once it takes off, it really is an enjoyable drama, with nice twists and a lot of thrilling moments. The chemistry between the girls was on point, as well, supporting the drama when things got boring. The romance, in addition, was, fortunately, only there to fill in the gaps and didn't take the lead.

As for the performances, the cast did a great job with their characters and they were all enjoyable, though the main lead's character tended to get annoying.

So, overall, seven out of ten.
