Me & office dramas - inseparable. Naturally, I had to watch this. Introverted Boss was nothing like I imagined it to be, in both good and bad.
Well first of all, I didn't think that the story would be filled with a dark and mysterious theme behind the main plot. The start of the drama was a bit rough, but the story picked itself back up after a couple of episodes. The story was very unique, actually and quite enjoyable to say the least. If the directors manages to combine several completely different genres of drama and make it easy-to-watch, then personally, I consider the series worth my time. However, what I found a bit disturbing was how quickly some of the characters recovered from the shock of the events in the past. That's the part where I thought it's unrealistic.
Now, what I really LOVED were the characters. The main actors - I've been familiar of them in some of the other dramas. Their roles in Introverted Boss completely blew me away! One of the reasons why I started watching this drama was the actress Park Hye Soo. Her character in the drama Age of Youth was one of my favorites! She's so talented and precious, but I didn't enjoy her character in this drama. I guess she was just so annoying and talkative, but that's just her portrayal and once again, it shows how actors can easily switch roles from a timid person to a hyperactive human. Yeon Woo Jin, on the other hand, completely mesmerized me with his performance. The only character that I had in mind when thinking about this actor was this rich, stubborn plastic surgeon from Marriage, Not Dating. Hwan Ki, the male lead in this drama, was a shy cutie patootie! I could relate to his character so much and he was definitely the highlight of this drama! Not to forget Yoon Park as well - a recently discovered actor on my list, but super talented and diverse.
One thing that I've noticed in the drama was that songs were constantly being played like every 2 minutes, especially towards the end. I get it and admit it - the OST is beautiful, worth the listen, but sometimes it gets really annoying.
So, if you're a fan of office romance dramas, this is a unique one to watch. It's not perfect, but I think it teaches you a thing or too just like any other great drama.
Don't hesitate to watch this if you have plenty of time on your hands.
