This is my first review so be nice to me and since my native language isn't english forgive me if I make a few mistakes. :) I feel like at this point saying that a drama is a breath of fresh air is a lie. Because a lot of Korean dramas (at least the ones who focus on the romantic relationships) follow the same structure. You know what I mean - getting to know each other, falling in love, dating, fighting/ breaking up, forgiving and the happy ever after. The circle just repeats with almost every drama. And even if some dramas try to break this structure a lot of the times it ends horribly. Even with this cliche structure that is predictable and pretty boring I can still enjoy dramas if they make sure to include bits and pieces of something original and interesting. Happiness consists of little things, right? Story: The story of Protect the Boss is nothing special. But there are a few plot lines that were pretty interesting and thought provoking. Be aware that like a lot of Korean dramas Protect The Boss also gets dragged on and boring and it gets pretty bad but not horrible. I always watch comedies, because I hate the heavy atmosphere in melodramas. The comedy in this drama...i don't know if it even exists, because I don't remember it being extremely funny, well sure there were a few moments, but overall the comedy in this drama is just the lighthearted, mushy feeling that will make you smile a lot. ^^ Characters: + I loved the main characters. Cha Ji Heon was really interesting and unique. No Eun Seol was a perfect main character and at the end of the show I supported her like she was my friend. This rarely happens but I actually cared a lot for the supporting characters. Loved Seo Na Yoon and the way her character developed and, God, Wang Ji Hye is just a godess in general. The relationship between No Eun Seol and her two friends was like a cute little bonus. Cha Ji Heons father really gave me mixed feeling. One episode he was my favourite character and the other I hated him. I don't know if that is a good thing, but I guess I really enjoyed loving him. - There are a lot of unanswered questions for me, especially about Cha Ji Heons past. Sometimes the decisions the characters made or how their feelings changed were unnatural and unrealistic. No Eun Seol and Cha Moo Won even though I loved them, but their characters were kind of bland and needed more character development. The evil characters were just there, because they needed to be wich made them annoyng. Acting: I didn't notice anything horrible and I feel like I am not qualified to nit pick little flaws. Music: Absolutely bland and uninteresting. I don't remmember any song that I liked but there was this backround music with string instuments that was kind of uplifting. Enjoyment: Despite its flaws I still enjoyed this drama for the lovable characters and cute moments. Overall: 7.5 P.S. Don't even look at the rating sistem. I put 7.5 everywhere so the overall would be 7.5. i dislike this rating sistem.
