Revised Review…
People are giving biased reviews which skews the rating negatively unnecessarily! Keep your biased opinions to yourself and rate it based on the overall storyline and performance. So, what if they had a one night stand which resulted in a pregnancy? That’s nothing new and the fact that she decides to keep the baby is her choice! Why criticize her for it?! Women CAN have a career AND have children as well! What if they actually liked each other from the beginning and now decided to pursue a relationship in spite of the pregnancy?! Stop forcing your opinion and lowering the ratings with your biase!**Revised Review**
After watching 8 of 12 episodes I’ve revised my original review to state that the writers have not developed the characters and storyline sufficiently to merit a 10.

There isn’t much happening in this show, except for a workaholic woman who suddenly gets pregnant!!Tragically, Jang Hui Won is 40-years-old woman, who is single and dedicated to her work. Ironically, her best friends Cha Min Uk & Hwang Mi Ran are also unmarried. While planning for her transition abroad, she meets the male protagonist, Kang Du Jun. Unaware of his real identity, they have a casual conversation, get drunk and end up having a one-night stand. Things go awry when Hui Won discovers that she is pregnant and the father of her baby is the company president. “Positively Yours” isn’t calculative, it is carefully curated and at times, it does seem boring. But if you are fans of the main leads, then you can definitely sit through twelve odd episodes as both protagonists overcome their personal traumas and fears, to form a family unit. I won’t say it was the best, but it wasn’t that bad either!!

From One Night to Romance
Positively Yours is one of those dramas where you can pretty much predict what’s going to happen—but that doesn’t necessarily make it boring.The story follows a very familiar path, especially if you enjoy boss–employee or office romance tropes. Nothing about the main plot feels particularly new, and at times it really does feel like you’ve seen this exact storyline before, just with different actors and slightly different situations.
And I have to say—his smile really stood out to me. It’s not just a normal smile; his eyes smile too, which makes his softer moments feel genuine. On the flip side, his jealousy scenes were honestly adorable. They didn’t feel forced, just natural reactions that added a bit of charm and humor to the relationship.
Now, one character I really struggled with was the sister-in-law. I kept asking myself, what is wrong with her? Yes, her trauma is understandable—losing someone important because of an accident involving the male lead (even if it wasn’t intentional) is devastating. But holding onto that pain and resentment for 15 years felt exhausting to watch. That’s literally half a lifetime, and while her emotions are valid, it sometimes felt like her character was stuck in the past without much growth for a long time.
That said, this drama definitely leans more toward fantasy than reality. It is very fictional than realistic (I know all the dramas are fictional, but some dramas will leave strong impression on you). The whole “CEO falls in love and everything works out perfectly” vibe is very idealized. But if you go in expecting something light and feel-good, it actually works in its favor.
Now, something random but memorable—the drama made even small things feel interesting. Like that moment with the beer, poured at a perfect 45-degree angle and mixed just right… I don’t know why, but it looked so satisfying that it actually made me want to try it myself one day.
My favorite character has to be Secretary Go. He was genuinely hilarious. His scenes had me laughing so hard that I wouldn’t even risk watching them in public. His expressions, timing, everything—it just worked. He added a fun energy that balanced out the more emotional parts of the story.
The female lead’s team leader is another character who grew on me. At first, she came across as overly critical and hard to like, always nitpicking the female lead. But once she found out about the pregnancy, her attitude shifted. She became more protective and supportive, and that change felt natural enough to appreciate.
If you’re in the mood for something deep and unpredictable, this might not be the right choice. But if you want a comforting, romantic drama with good chemistry, funny side characters, and simple feel-good moments then this drama worth giving a try.

'POSITIVELY YOURS' makes me feel 'POSITIVELY DEVISED.'
Honestly, the story's theme isn't too bad. A very light storyline that is also quite relatable today. From beginning to end, the series features a realistic plot with traumatic pasts for the main characters, expertly mixed with an abundance of comedic elements. However, the story fell short of expectations, and I was unable to fix the flaw that makes 'POSITIVELY YOURS' watchable casually.Everybody, including the MAIN LEADS, acts well in accordance with their roles. However, they fail to leave a lasting impression on us.
I wish I could include some delightful and appreciative words in my review of 'POSITIVELY YOURS', but I am afraid I cannot.

An okay drama ....
so the first two episodes didn't encourage me to keep going yet I have finished it somehow .before starting this , the plot summary suggested that it was going to be a rom com with some depth to it yet after watching it ended up superficial and rushed for me .
the first thing that didn't work for me was the love triangle , it came out of no where and ended up adding nothing why was it there in the first place " maybe to fill some episodes ?!!".
min uk and min ran may ended have something in the end " they started dating i guess" but of course they also didn't focus on this they just hinted .
we never got to see a proper healing process for du jun or hui won , it just like in the end he was able finally hold her hand and his trauma was healed , of course he visited his brother's grave and his sister in law apologize and told him she forgave him yet it was rushed and as for hui won she gust forgave her mother after all she has done , like she forgot all of that easily .
of course this had a lot of cute scenes that made FL see that ML cared about her and made her want to have a family yet this also had all cliche scenes of a rom com .
for me this was an okay drama , if you want something light and funny give it a go .

Unexpected
This series left mixed feelings: on the one hand some of the standard kdrama stuff is continuously present, yetmost of the story does not follow the expectd paths; this makes it interesting, because it is fully unexpected.
On the other hand, the story does not go very far, in none if its aspects.
The actors were very well chosen and all of them did a marvelous job!
Personally I appreciate that no teeny looking actors were chosen, maturity was an important factor.
Consequently I have mixed feelings to recommend it too: there are better, there are much worse.

Positively Awful
This is a flop. I’m distracted doing laundry, doing other things on my cell phone and not paying attention to this Kdrama. It lured me in because I like the two romantic leads but not sure they have the chemistry together. But the story has been so boring and not believable. Love Triangle not working. The supporting cast are loud and annoying. I’m up to episode 6 and will just finish this to the end even if I have to skip an episode or fast forward through. This one is no Dynamite Kiss or Idol I, that’s for sure! There’s some really good kdramas and ones that completely flop.Was this review helpful to you?
Positively run far away from this mess
Started somewhat OK, then became a mess of unnecessary misunderstandings. Eventually, the writers tried to resolve every conflict with flash solutions and apologies. Imo, by that time, we were way beyond that point in a lot of these relationships, but I guess the writers had to have their happy ending for all parties involved. Why even bother producing an adaptation of a good webtoon if you're going to change everything about it except the title?Was this review helpful to you?
Is it a cute romcom to watch when bored: Yes ; BUT
Honestly i really liked this drama and would have given it 7 maybe even 9 stars but the problem is that this is an adaptation. I was and am a very big fan of the WEBTOON this drama is adapted from and honestly very sad that they completely rewrote the entire story BUT I also have to say that the new story is a very fun and cute story, it is very catching and honestly I finished this drama in one sitting, it was just that fun to watch. In terms of acting and story it is pretty satisfactory which I am normally pretty critical about so that's good. The story doesn't drag on too long, there are some cliche scenes but let's be honest a romcom without cliche or cringe scenes does not qualify as a romcom in my eyes. The chemistry of the leads was also pretty good in my opinion. The only real complaint I have if we look at the story alone is that they focused too little on the pregnancy, honestly I forgot she was pregnant for like 2-3 episodes, which is pretty bad for a drama BUILT on an accidental pregnancy trope but the rest was pretty okay in my opinion. I still think they should've just had dropped the whole adaptation bit because there is litterally almost like except for one or two things nothing from the original story, which is why I don't understand why they just didn't promote it as a seperate drama.In summary I would say that this is worth a watch, just don't expect it to be the same story as the WEBTOON. That's the only reason for the lost stars :(

Positively average
This is a pretty cookie cutter kdrama.Chaebol ML, check.
Ambitious FL working for his company, check.
FL's guy friend is into her, check.
Secret workplace shenanigans, check.
Evil family corporate sabotage, check.
The execution is decent. If you want to watch a relatively simple office kdrama romance, then this is a fine show. Nothing groundbreaking, but a decent watch. There is a lot of kdrama tropes.
Fine to watch and fine to skip.
My biggest issue is ML being kinda uncharismatic. The FL was ok, though the portrayal didnt completely fit the tone of the show for me.

MLs journey was so enjoyable, 2ML was so irritating!
I didn't read the manwha and read some negative reviews before I watched it. I like the 2 leads so I gave it a go. I laughed a lot. There were some WTF moments of course but the secretary and MLs interactions were so funny. I liked the first episode how they had a few meet-cutes. However, I thought it was hard to believe that 2 people of that age were relationship shy, but the show gave good reasons for how they had become this way. I liked most of the supporting characters. Mostly they were funny though in some cases too much. The SML was painful. Couldn't really see what either the FL or her best friend saw in him with the exception of his kind nature and the fact that he seemed to be the only male around them. His constant carrying of man bags and sense of entitlement really irritated. (At first I liked how he could stand up to a chaebol but then realised he was just like that, over confident or something fro no reason). Which leads me to the ML. Honestly my fave character. I love the journey he went on. From relationship shy, and women averse to bravely following his feelings and standing up for his lady and baby to be. From his first time seeing her at the hospital he never wavered, in whatever capacity she would let him, he would be her support. He was like this with his niece too, such a refreshing character. Totally not what you would have expected from his initial scenes. He could be so confident and strong when he needed to take charge to being sweet and humble during the press conference.Was this review helpful to you?
