Ms. Temper & Nam Jung Gi (A.K.A. My Horrible Boss) is a very different romcom drama from what we're used to. In fact, I would hardly classify it as a romcom. There is some romance, but it mostly takes a backseat and occurs in the background. The main focus is the professional and personal relationship between Nam Jung-Gi and Ok Da-Jeong , and the evolution of Lovely Cosmetics as a business (mostly the second one).

The story is super interesting. The way the workers at Lovely Cosmetics are able to overcome every obstacle in their way is very satisfying and fun to watch. The individual progress in each character is also great. This drama not only develops the main leads, but also the secondary characters. It takes its time to explain each one of them and show why they're who they are. Of course, this is only possible because the actors are very good. All of the actors do a great job.

Speaking of acting, both Yoon Sang Hyun and Lee Yo Won are great in thir respective roles. Lee Yo Won is particularly great. Her character starts as annoying and rdiculously stubborn, but, as the episodes go on, you get to know her past and start to like her. Also, the main leads have a lot of chemistry, so you actually buy into their relationship dynamics.

I recommend this if you like strong female leads and shows that are not solely centered on romance. It's super fun and will keep you interested from start to finish.
