What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim is best described as funny and cute. Both words are a little tame but on the positive side and describe the show very well. First let me tell you about the cute. Park Min Young is a very nice-looking actress and did a good job of portraying the picked-on secretary Kim Mi So to the very cocky but equally good-looking Lee Yeong Joon played by a talented Park Seo Joon. How do I know he is talented? He sings during the show and does an amazing job. The show is all about the two of them navigating the boss/secretary relationship and something more personal.

The supporting characters were engaging as well. Fellow secretary Kim Ji Ah, played by Pyo Ye Jin had an interesting story arc with Go Gwi Nam, portrayed by Kwang Chan Sung. I thought the two of them were as funny together as Kim Mi So and Yeong Joon.

The first episode starts with Kim Mi So giving her notice to Yeong who is very upset and does not want to let her go. She had spent the last several years working to pay off family debts and now Kim Mi So wants to find herself. From the beginning the boss proposes to the secretary and she understandably turns him down. For the remaining sixteen episodes, we see the two grow closer for various reasons including a strange childhood backstory that involved his brother.

The supporting characters are fun and cute as well (meaning: they didn’t repulse me, nor did they knock my socks off). The music was descent and so was the cartoon-y graphics. Yes, I’m one of those strange people that likes the little cartoon graphics they put in comedies sometimes to make a point. Without giving any spoilers, Secretary Kim is a fun and entertaining show that won’t wow you nor will it make you very angry with a terrible ending. The best part of the show will be watching Park Seo Joon play the ever-changing Lee Yeong Joon. And for the record, he can sing me a lullaby anytime he wants.
