This drama is the best, I love the enemies to lovers troupe so kuch and they are the only one korean drama tgat did it right, the build up and character development is well built. I love krystal jung acting so much, her character is refreshing, I have never seen a kdrama character like her, I've been into kdrama since 2009, and kim jaewook, is just so damn good, a legendary actor. This drama deserves the hype that business proposal get, the best drama halfway of 2022.

Enemies to Lovers fans rejoice! This drama is very well done and has a believable journey for our leads to go from enemies to very cute lovers. Acting was good across the board, and the soundtrack was fun if not necessarily memorable. The plot was dramatic but not too dramatic (within kdrama standards of course) and kept me interested throughout the entire show. I really loved the underlying message that one good person can make a big difference. Overall this was a cute one time watch that I enjoyed a lot.

My wife and I bailed on this after 4 episodes. We just found the fact that the ML was a total jerk, and the FL was, perhaps for good reason, trying to torture out male lead. It just went on so long and got really tedious.

Since I actually bought Blue Rays (it didn't appear on streaming until after I bought the discs ha ha), we thought we'd give it another chance to try to get our money's worth.

The bottom line, is that it gets better in the second half, and lands a bit more in the romcom category. The is still some trauma coming from a side character, but it is not too bad.

The acting was generally good. We love Krystal Jung. She did a great job. Kim Jae-Wook was also good, although I can't put my finger on why I wasn't happier with this portrayal of the mail lead. We really like him a lot in Her Private Life.

So overall, an 8 for us. If the mutual harassment between the leads had not gone on so long, it would have been a 9.

The head of a private education company Noh Go-jin (Kim Jae-wook) is revered in the industry but is a horrible person who bully's his staff. Most personal assistants only last a few months because of his personality but Lee Shin-ah (Krystal Jung) has put up with his unreasonable behaviour for over a year when she receives life changing news which encourages her to take drastic action. The situation then escalates where she is under suspicion for attempted murder but she lies about her relationship with her boss and because he has amnesia claims to be his fiancé. The premise is interesting and parts of the story are entertaining with good acting from the entire cast. My main issue with the drama is most of the characters are not nice people and no matter how they try to justify their behaviour with their pasts it is not acceptable to behave in the manner they do whatever they claim is the reason. It would have been better if they had just softened a lot of the characters back story to make them more likeable and invested in the outcome of their lives.

The K-Drama genre that made me crazy about K-Drama when I was growing up (after not watching K-Drama for a long time) was office romance, namely "What's Wrong with Secretary Kim". Unfortunately, the series has one drawback. Likewise, the recent office romance "Business Proposal" has an unimpressive ending. "Crazy Love" which I initially took for granted, turned out to have a very interesting story with elements of comedy, politics, and romance mixed very well. None of the characters seem wasted. No matter how little they appear, all of them have an important role in supporting the characterization of the main character. The weakness that I found in "What's Wrong with Secretary Kim" is the disclosure of excessive plot twists in one episode also occurs here but "Crazy Love" handles it very well which makes me not bothered by it. And the ending is very good in resolving all the conflicts that occur throughout the story.
