PR, Stars, and Awkward Plot Twists: A Rom-Com Rollercoaster!

Running an entertainment business is no easy feat, and managing artists adds another layer of complexity despite the outward glamour. This romantic comedy follows the head of the PR team and her relationship with the company's top star. The drama masterfully balances engaging and humorous moments with some frustrating and irritating segments.

๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜'๐˜€ ๐—ช๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ธ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด:

๐— ๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐—–๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฝ๐—น๐—ฒ: Lee Sung Kyung and Kim Young Dae deliver strong performances with excellent chemistry. Their early antagonistic interactions are particularly enjoyable.

๐—ฆ๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ ๐—–๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฝ๐—น๐—ฒ๐˜€: The pairing of Park So Jin and Lee Jung Shin as the no-nonsense duo stands out among the two side couples.

๐—–๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ผ๐˜€: Numerous funny appearances from various famous actors and actresses. Both Kim Seul Gi and Song Ji Hyo were scene-stealers, their performances exceptionally humorous.

๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜'๐˜€ ๐—ก๐—ผ๐˜ ๐—ช๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ธ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด:

๐—š๐—ฒ๐—ผ๐—ด๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฝ๐—ต๐˜† ๐—œ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ผ๐˜: The Africa plot was extremely ignorant and equally offensive.

Towards the end, it gets sad and heavy with the "mom trying to reconnect" subplot.

๐—ช๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ธ-๐˜„๐—ถ๐—น๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐— ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—Ÿ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ: The male lead became way too weak. It would be nice if he could man up a little to face his demons.

Overall is a mixed bag that offers both delightful and frustrating moments. While the chemistry between the main couple and the humorous cameos are highlights, the uneven plot and problematic elements detract from the overall experience. Nonetheless, itโ€™s worth a watch for fans of romantic comedies who enjoy a blend of humor and drama.
