Meu Secretário Perfeito

This was an excellent K-Drama. It ticked all the right boxes. The casting was perfect. The male and female leads did a terrific job making their characters believable. Although this is only 12 episodes, the story line flows well. All of the supporting cast is great. The antagonistic characters were also played well. All of the main characters had growth. This was not a trope filled mess. The relationships were well thought out and executed. The child actors carried their parts well and interacted well with their adult co stars. It is a treat to find such great characters with such a well written story.

I really enjoyed till the 4th episode cant wait for the 5th episode. The main thing i like about the drama is the cast, the main leads acting was phenomenal. To be honest i didn't have high expectation for this drama but after i watched it i fell in love with it. The story is the same as in any other romantic drama but i don't why i like this K drama i think it is because of the cast, Lee Jun-hyuk and Han ji min's acting was phenomenal i really loved it, ngl their were some emotional parts which was unnecessary. It caught me off the bat when i saw the first episode. Wanna give special thanks to the director who made the script and the story.

I REALLY LIKED IT BUT DEPENDS ON THE PERSON **THIS IS ONLY MY OPINION**

Should be called Talent Scout. There isn't much love scouting, is there?

This was sold to me as something revolutionizing romance k-drama. It doesn't. It's got its good points but overall it's a mess of a script and not much in the way of character building. It's actually got so many of the minor tropes in the construction of scenes and even character dynamics. They only switched the genders, now you have the cold female CEO and the warm, kind-hearted secretary. How is that solving anything?

Manic pixie dream boy come secretary whose main purpose it to save the female lead from whatever trouble she gets herself into and adore her unconditionally and anticipate and cater to her every whim. He is the perfect father, boyfriend, and professional, all at the same time, without any protestation. Have you seen anything like it? Cause I haven't. Must be quite a sight. Of course, I forgot to mention he is also ridiculously attractive and attracted only to her, but that goes without saying. Sounds reasonable right? What is even more laughable is that his whole thing was that he suffered professionally because he put his kid first and had to neglect work, but when he comes to her company he can spend long nights at the office, and his child is miraculously not affected by it.

The work environment in the field of head-hunting is also not very believable, I am pretty sure things don't happen that way and that easily. These company employees are miracle workers sometimes. Of course they/she had to be faced with almost insurmountable obstacles in the form of industrial espionage and conspiracies and back-stabbing. Things could not be any worse, but somehow it is all resolved, and quite easily and quickly. And when it was all crashing down nobody thought of calling some lawyers for legal protection. Whole two episodes, you are being investigated for criminal offenses, nobody had a lawyer there. This is madness.

I know there is plenty of suspension of disbelief in k-drama, but some people are really pushing it. I'm no expert so it's easy to fool me, but at least make me believe it.

As for the structure and pacing, it felt rushed and shallow towards the end. They wasted so much time on the setup and her being unbearable that if left too little time for a believable relationship or a credible resolution to the company's problems.

This woman was so insufferable for so many episodes I was having trouble imagining how they would make them fall for each other. Again, I guess you gotta believe in it.

Compared to what it promised to be this it nothing more than six. In the large pool of k-drama rom-coms it's very mid, so seven. Did not like Han Ji-min here at all, but maybe any other actress would have been just as unlikeable.

It was a struggle to get to the end of this wearisome series. The first few episodes showcased the slooooooww build up of the lethargic romance between the two leads. He looks at her. She glances at him. He looks at her again. He blinks. They're alone in the office. He falls asleep and she touches his nose. She's had too much to drink and she leans in, but will they kiss? No. Big nothing burger. The director thinks it's an amazing scene, so they show it twice. Then the two leads experience the least exciting date I've ever seen in a Korean drama-a piano recital!

Lots of shots of the deserted office at night with one or the other leads or both of them working diligently. They enjoy lots of meals/snacks together, and product placement proliferates. A certain Korean candy bar takes center stage three times. It's name is forever burned into my psyche.

At Episode Seven, the writers wake up and realize that there's not much emotional tension in this series, so they throw in a contrived complication. She weeps. He holds her. Will this non-tragedy drive our two lovers apart?

Nope. Back to business as usual. Meanwhile, the insipid dialogue deserves an award for pointlessness: "What's your favorite weather?" "Did you ever day-drink before?" Another couple exclaim over the fact that they're both wearing the same style of shoes.

Finally, toward the end, the evil villain makes a move. Now there's actually a conflict of sorts. But it's too late. The audience has been bored into oblivion.

In an era marked by intense dramas like "Squid Game," "All of Us Are Dead," "Sweet Home," and "Hellbound," "Love Scout" stands out as a refreshing and heartwarming series. It takes viewers back to the days of classic, cliché dramas. The writing is solid, avoiding anything excessive or extravagant.

The story revolves around a hard-working CEO and her secretary, who is a single father. The supporting characters add a delightful touch to the drama. The chemistry between the leads is satisfying to watch, and the male lead is quite handsome. Additionally, the child actor portraying his daughter delivers an impressive performance.

This series consists of just 12 episodes, making it a perfect, light-hearted escape from our daily lives. It's definitely worth a watch. Thank you for taking the time to read my thoughts. I hope you have a wonderful day!
