Only watch if you really like the cast!

First of all... Ali was so pretty here! I don’t think there was a single bad shot of her in the entire drama. And I’ve always loved her pairing with Moses! So, I was dying for Beauty and The Boss to air. But now that I finished watching all 30 episodes, the only thing I feel is disappointment (and it has nothing to do with the cast)!

This drama was not what I expected at all. I didn’t know I would be watching a slice of life type of drama. So it came as a surprise, however it would’ve been fine if it was executed well. But, it wasn’t.

The story felt flat and disjointed. There was no climax or anything at all that would’ve made you anxious or excited for the characters over the span of 30 episodes. Any conflict that arose was always resolved quickly and easily. The editing was also weird, jumping from my one scene to the next.

I honestly wouldn’t have finished this if not for the cast. Everyone played their roles well and had great chemistry together! I was watching for Ali and Moses, but my favorite character ended up being Kiki! Tbh, I never really liked Harriet Yeung because most of her previous roles were the same annoying slapstick humor kind of crazy, but I absolutely loved her here! Kiki was beautiful, confident, and knew what she wanted in life. Her scenes were so fun to watch! She was definitely the highlight of the show for me.

But, I am sad to say, I wouldn’t recommend watching Beauty and The Boss unless you really like the cast
