As another reviewer stated, for a show called Miss Lee, they truly don't focus on her that much. They don't even really make her the glue that holds things together. She mostly is kind of hopeless, and never really hits her stride like you expect. So you either want a comedy about a person who gets thrust in to a unique position and funny things happen, or you want a serious drama about the person figuring it out along the way through tough trial and error. Neither really happen here, and you are left wondering what the point of the main character even is.
The writers contradict themselves multiple times in the story. The characters are very gullible, and unlikable, with the exception of one or two. You know that cliche where everyone falls for someone's gossip story, but eventually they stop getting duped because they learn their lesson? Forget that. Everyone just believes everything they are told, and when they do question it, they are still eventually convinced by a quick rebuttal.
Not only does Miss Lee herself not get much attention. The second female lead also gets very little screen time and story development. I kind of want to do a spoiler review so I can point out the kabillion writing mistakes/contradictions, but I am not sure it's worth the time.
Verdict: This thing is a damn mess. I was kind of floored at how incoherent this was.

First of all, for a drama called "Miss Lee" there was not much miss lee screen time. Miss Lee had a nice role at first, with the leading lady struggling to feat into her new role as a chairman of a company that's going down. However, later on they started focusing more on the other characters than her. Also, even though the drama had a nice slice of life story with a bitter sweet ending, there was something missing, probably intensity or interesting twists. The performances were good, nevertheless, from every actor and actress in the cast.
So, overall, five out of ten.

a slice of life office drama with great cast
i was so curious why this show's rating was sooo low. with this cast, how could it go wrong? i guess its a typical office drama with generic writing. not everyone would appreciate its low pacing... especially if you have seen miseang. one would not take a minute to watch this. but not for me. im a big hye ri fan. The drama is also surrounded with familar actors that i love. With gret character developements and likable characters, why am i the only one who was hooked on this drama. the question still bothers me. hehehehe.Was this review helpful to you?
