I watched this for Kim Young Kwang not gonna lie. I first saw him in Good Doctor and fell in love with him. But what made me stay for this show was Jin Ki Joo. She is amazing!! Also Koo Ja Sung. He is so cute - his smile is sooooo cute.

*********SPOILERS*************
The story is kinda meh. It's about a demanding boss with a chip on his shoulder who falls in love with his secretary, over played plot. Boss is well known to be able to read people. Secretary is super awesome at her job but still gets fired because Boss has trust issues. Due to some reason boss losses his ability to see faces, and the only face he does see is his secretary's - so he can't fire her.

Boss has been set up on a blind date by his family. Blind date doesn't show up. Secretary who was out with her friends and is dressed up shows up to inform him, but he mistakes her for his date, and for the first time in her life he treats her well so she plays along. He only recognizes her for her when she's in her secretary outfit - red cardigan.

Other side of town Boss's best friend is having a date/business meeting with Boss's blind date. It's a hot mess.

I enjoyed the premise. I loved the acting. I loved how the actors elevated the mediocre script. All the actors were BRILLIANT! Kim Young Kwang, Jin Ki Joo, Koo Ja Sung, Kim Jae Kyung. Amazing. All. Around! VP was meant to be a little cheesy and slapstick and OTT. And they both did a great job pulling that off. And when they needed to bring her brilliant moments to light they totally did that too. AMAZING JOB.
