Korean Dramaland and Variety Land
Even an Introvert Wants Only to be Loved and to be Understood
Unexpectedly delightful. When I started watching this, I am not even familiar with both the female and male lead on this Korean drama but I gave it a try since it was recommended by one of the articles written in Drama list.
I must say I was all giggles and laughter. Although the inner plot of this series is somehow relevant to what is happening in a lot of countries, not only in South Korea, United States but even in third world countries like the Philippines. This is a must watch indeed tackling on issues on depression, suicide, inflicting pain to oneself when stressed or faced with inevitable ordeals. On the lighter note, this series also teaches us about love, acceptance and understanding — with much depth than the mere word itself.
Our Leads. Yeon Woo Jin, who played Eun Hwan Ki , CEO of a big PR company did an outstanding job portraying as an introvert with inferior complex plus overly (in the superlative sense) obsessive-compulsive disorder behaviour. He completes his ensemble with a black hoodie as he doesn’t want to speak to people much more give out speeches and presentations, a much required task considering the nature of his company. In contrast, our female lead Chae Ro Woon played by Park Hye Soo considers these traits as his strengths rather than his weakness. She applied to the company with one goal only — REVENGE and avenge her sister who committed suicide and was wronged by Eun Hwan Ki’s family and company. She didn’t expect to find love along the way and to be loved by someone unexpectedly as well.
POWERFUL SCENE. When Eun Hwan Ki gave a presentation, I had a hard time looking at him ... so pitiful ... and it made me cringe and I was really waiting for him to overcome it .. but I guess it isn’t easy at all considering he haven’t done anything like this before. In all of this he silently suffered. His indifference was misunderstood continuously by people surrounding him including his family. What comforted him is his sister and friend ( co-CEO of the company as well). Although at the beginning , I doubted his friend and his intentions were.
I watched this series with much delight and laughter but not with a heavy heart in spite of the plot and storyline. I highly recommend you watching this as well.
