Just right!

My favorite K-drama ever! He's so adorably clueless and I love watching his character progress from narcissist to loving man. This series has it all - comedy, drama, mystery, romance, beautiful buildings and scenery, and off-the-charts chemistry between the two main characters. It's nice to watch something that doesn't have the obligatory terrible parent trying to keep the two apart. And this may be random, but the earrings she wore throughout were beautiful! I've watched this series at least four times.

If you have watched a lot of dramas before watching this one you might not connect with the storyline which I found myself doing. It’s a typical storyline but I definitely enjoyed all the characters in the drama. Though it’s a repeated childhood friend story Park Minyoung and Park Seo Joon brought some freshness into it as we haven’t see their pairing. Each love story was unique and cute. Some scenes were extremely funny so there was a reasonable amount of comedy which made up for the story in some way. The OST was okay but not super amazing. Overall the drama was okay but don’t watch with extremely high expectations because you can guess what coming next, it’s not unpredictable.

What even is this

I started it as I like office romance genre but when I started this I couldn't even finish this. Left it after watching 8 episodes and started watching Crash landing on you - best decision. Then I had nothing to watch so I thought to continue and then again I couldn't after 11 episodes. Even then some how I completed it. Waste of 16 hours. The character development of male lead is arrogant to less arrogant. The acting of female lead is useless even a coconut would act better than her - No expression, no acting nothing. They were in their 30's and acting like high school teenagers. The trauma - being kidnapped together and then the suicide because the kid said something is so stupid. The fear of spiders and cable ties ughhh so stupid. Couldn't even imagine what the writers were thinking. How is this even so highly rated kdrama. There are so many good kdramas. The side characters were good they kept the show going. It was so BORING. WHEN WILL THIS END was the only thought in my mind.

It started with great momentum ...

I added this drama to my queue because of Park Min Young. I absolutely adore her. The first episode did not draw me in. Despite the comedic tones of character introductions, it really didn't catch my attention. It was not until the end of the second episode that I held out hope for this drama.

The story and character development flowed beautifully. You learned a lot and fell in leave with all of the characters, main and support. It all comes to a head at the end of episode ten and you're left with this sense of closure. Unfortunately, you don't get that in the last six episodes. While the last six episodes are adorable, they're fluff. You forget about everything that happened in the first ten episodes because it is just sort of written off. I was left with a few questions and this want to find out how things were mended.

The acting is great! You do have to keep in mind that this drama has a comedic aspect to it. Parts are expected to be delivered animated and overdramatic. I personally feel the execution was amazing and left me drawn to the characters.

The music wasn't all that memorable. The songs fit the scene where a song became more prominent, but I didn't feel the need to run to Spotify or look up every song in the OST.

I could see myself watching this drama again, but only until episode ten. Again, nothing against the last six episodes, but I felt there could have been so much more than what was presented.

Overall, this drama is cute.The love story, characters, and comedy mesh really well and make for a bingeworthy drama.

A Classic Romantic Comedy

A cute romantic comedy about a narcissistic boss and his secretary: when I say narcissistic, I mean he doesn’t have an ounce of humility from start to finish. But that’s the charm of this unique character. You will eventually warm up to his unwavering habit of loving himself. The character Lee Young Joon played by Park Seo Joon is one you will either love or hate. The drama was structured around this character, so I learned to like him.

Kim Mi So, better known as Secretary Kim, was played by the gorgeous Park Min Young. She, as usual, was incredible. The concept in this drama is that she understands her boss completely. When Vice Director Lee talks about his good looks, intellect, or abilities, she usually agrees with him. Their relationship eventually becomes a romantic connection prompted by her decision to quit her job as his secretary.

Love will slowly blossom between the two, and you will witness a beautiful romance grow between two adults, both of which are relatively new at dating. Don’t forget this is a romantic comedy, emphasizing romance, and you will enjoy this drama as I did. There was an interesting subplot that’s settled early in the drama bringing the romance to the forefront. You don’t often see that happen. Usually, writers drag the main subplot to the bitter end. I enjoyed this refreshing change in writing style.

Calling out all romance lovers,this drama is gonna stick on you like peanut butter to jelly. The characters and their friendship were goals;the couples and their relationships were goals; EVERYTHING WAS GOALS.
This is one of that kind of dramas where every character is a piece of a puzzle. They're all important. You're gonna love them because of their unique characteristics and wittiness. Everyone was so natural in their acting,it was insane. I think a lot of people thought that the story was cliché. And i agree with that. But for some reason,i didn't really mind it.

And the thing i liked the most about this,is that the main female lead was not the typical "dumb and weak" character. She was powerful,strong and confident,and i wanted to enter the drama just to give her a hug. Also, Park Seo Joo never disappoints,i love this man in every drama.

Overall,it was a really laid back and fun romcom. I laughed and squealed and that's what i needed because i was in a slump from all the bad dramas that i forced myself to watch. And i didn't cry until the last episode,damn,that one got me. I'M GONNA MISS THE LEADS AND THE SUPPORTIVE CHARACTERS A WHOLE BUNCH

Sometimes you don't need a complex plots for a story to shine or to be interesting.
"There is beauty in Simplicity", this is what I thought about this drama.It's not perfect "Yes", there are scenes where you'll think that Is that really necessary?, but at the end you just tend to let it go because it works perfectly. I love that the happy ending did not only happen to the main lead but to the other characters as well.
For those who are looking for a drama that will leave you an exhilarating feeling ,I recommend you to watch this.

storyline is not good

even though this drama had a lot of romantic scenes but the storyline made me skip a lot of parts .even though i skipped everything i still know what the story was.it was the acting and the scenes which made me stay till the end,otherwise i would never watch it till the end.the narcissist character of male lead made it more worse.i just hated the part where he always used to boast about himself and the the female lead without any second thought just agreed to him.the rich character made me awkward.

Quirky romantic comedy

I love the fashion values - and he has two Maseratis in different colors. As at ep. 2 more like "What's becoming of Mr Lee" ? As it develops, the reason the leads come together is highly far-fetched . Apart from that, which is contradictory to the light tone of the drama, this is a good mix of romance, comedy and mystery. It is not just the leads but all the characters in this show contribute to a great mix, really cheers me up. The romance towards the end still has original moments but for me gets boring. Could have been 2 or 3 episodes less imo, but the final episode was beautiful. Music very good. I could re-watch this in future, at least the first half.

As the first Korean drama that I watched upon my interest in watching dramas, this one has a very good acting in their cast and the plot has a fantastic flow to it.

To be able to follow the story and really have an understanding, I highly recommend for viewers to really get into the story and see the brilliant outline of typical themes that we find in modern dramas today.

The acting is second to none, with the entire cast - in my opinion - having a wonderful chemistry about them and none of the cast involved let you down with the pure fantastic quality that they bring to the screen.

If you have a desire for Korean dramas that not only get you interested in the story, but you're looking for a very good plot, brilliant choices in music to accomodate the scenes and no sudden drop in the quality of acting, then I definitely think you should give this one a chance.

i really like thing about Korean drama they are precise well written and executed don't rush and drag like other countries

now come to the drama i'm wondering after watching it why its titled " WHAT's WRONG WITH SECRETARY KIM" it should be titled " WHAT's WRONG WITH VICE PRESIDENT LEE " cause after hearing miss kim - she is quiting job mr. lee is no longer as usual lol :)

i must say actors are well deserve to be their they enact things greatly that make me sense writer/screenplay whomever done that have beautiful creator mind and magician to written/convey it

we all know there is nothing new in any drama all have same things romance bromance enemy action melodrama but what make any drama different/special is how you are presenting it

the show tell story about three person who went through trauma and how they overcame things and endure/control their emotion its old saying " when people face hard time either that person broke or became more stronger"

i used to go deeply in emotion how people convey their feelings so i've used serious words here so don't judge this drama is serious the thing i above mentioned it conveyed in very beautiful/light way its only some part of drama the whole drama is about confused heart of mr. lee and his stupidity cute romance as a same time passionate


recommendation 10/10
