O Que Houve Com a Secretária Kim? (2018)

WWWSK is an old school office romance with some touch of mystery to make it more thrilling. It has dull moments as it only revolves to the main characters fighting, then making up then making out .

Honestly, I didn't get my hopes up on the storyline but I actually enjoyed it. Seo Joon really fits his character and he is a natural. Furthermore, this drama made me realize how gorgeous and alluring Min Young is. Her skin and face is to die for, gosh. On the other hand, I was not that fond of the supporting characters that much as they are just also flirting. Overall, I like the drama but not that much as the story somewhat lack substance.

It is a good laugh

If you don't take this drama seriously, there is a lot of situational comedy and is very enjoyable. Prior to watching this drama, we watched a serious drama, so it was a quite a relief to watch this drama.

There were several occasions when I (we.. ouri) were burst out laughing. It is very rare that we laugh in a comedy.
Hwang Bo Ra was totally hilarious.In fact, the whole team did an awesome job of acting.

I had watched Park Seo Joon in Kill me, Heal Me and I was impressed as to how he was able to play a whole different character. As a character, he was totally unrecognizable.
Similarily, Park Min Young did an excellent job of portraying various emotions: From walking with confidence, to cute girl friend, to a sexy vixen.

The conflict between the brothers and the trauma was weak. For me, it was difficult to believe the explanation behind as to who was victimized. I wish, the screen writer could have imagined a better story line of the antagonist. Come on!! A good drama always need a powerful antagonist.

We enjoyed this drama and I highly recommend it from a comedy perspective. If you are looking for very romantic drama that has you emotionally involved then this one is not for you.

At first i was hesitant to watch this series i just saw this series in a group wherein they recommend it to other kdrama fans i always encounter this title in wherever someone ask for kdrama recommendation,i was just curious back then so y not give it a try, yes at first im thinking that it kinda boring or some common romance stories but after watching the episode one i can't stop but i feel i want more.. Hahaha im so excited in every episodes theres no boring episodes in this series and the chemistry of omy and psj exploded the whole series like you want to fall inlove again and again..this series is a must watch you will never regred every tik of the clock watching it hahaha


Acting: I mean, casting Park Seojoon and Park Minyoung as the lead roles? There was no way that the acting could be anything but amazing. Both actors portrayed the original webtoon characters incredibly well, and their chemistry was also commendable!

Rewatch value 10/10
I like legal dramas. I'm starting to like melodramas. But i'm not some saddistic fucker who only watches heart wrenching dramas or intense dramas. I need feel-good shows too and this show is the best representation for it. Even with the cliches and the cringy flashbacks, I would still rewatch this any day.

Made to be Rewatched

My first impression maybe one or two episodes in was to wonder how will they get 16 episodes out of this basic set up. As the story unfolds layers of hidden reveals and story twists emerge to justify those 16 episodes. On rewatch I appreciated the foreshadowing and reveals placed early on but which require that second time through to fully get.

For example, pay attention to the flashbacks connected to each character. In particular and I say this without spoiling anything note the flashbacks with the main male lead. These point towards whether he does or does not remember certain events and who he really is.

I enjoyed the steep character arc of the main male lead, but also the less obvious arc for the main female lead.

All in all a very entertaining story that improves the second time through.

Short review:

The drama is nothing life-changing, but it is entertaining. If you like funny rom-coms on a bit cheesy side with some cringe-worthy moments sprinkled in between, and if you don't mind typical kdrama cliches here and there, give it a try. The humor is a bit cringe-worthy at times and there really isn't a deeper message, but the show can be fun to watch. I would say that it's a drama similar to Marriage, not Dating and maybe Go Ho's Starry Night without the reverse harem .

Regular review:
Although the story is nothing new and the characters are very one-dimensional, I actually enjoyed this drama. It is pretty entertaining, although not everyone will be a fan of the humor in this. We have a traditional chaebol-poor girl romance with the unavoidable tragic past that resurfaces later, but fortunately gets resolved without dragging it too long. We also have a rather lackluster second lead. The main male love interest is not only ridiculously rich and capable, but also unbelievably good-looking ( though I would personally disagree with this; I mean, who came up with the lead's hairstyle in this??) and arrogant. Although amazingly popular with women, the heir to the conglomerate is a lone wolf who doesn't trust women to the point of not letting any woman ever touch him. The only woman who is by his side is his trustworthy secretary who is not only amazingly efficient, but also quite good looking. How lucky for our protagonist! I think that the main difference between this show and any other office based rom-com is the unusual way of telling the story. We meet the vice president and his secretary when they are already a very strong team and have worked together for 9 years. However, to the ML's dismay, the secretary decides to suddenly quit. This leaves the male lead puzzled and annoyed. I found the first episode to be hilarious and I quite quickly became attached to the flawed, but lovable male lead and his near-perfect office assistant. I think that the story slowed down a bit too much after episode 10, but it was still enjoyable to watch.

I didn't really care for the second lead's story. I loved the actor in 'W' and I was very excited to have him in this show, but his story was really unnecessary. I wish his character was a bit more developed and a bit less like a kicked puppy. As I mentioned earlier, the characters here are very simple. There is an incompetent secretary, a lonely and trustworthy president, a workoholic co-worker etc. Though they provide a nice background to the story, there isn't much depth to any of those characters. There are many romantic, but quite cheesy moments in this show, and there is quite a lot of bickering between the leads.

All in all, I found it to be a nice break between more intense dramas and recommend watching it when you want something to not think too much about.

Perfect RomCom .Simple plot with perfect comic timings, hottest couple.You can't deny both the leads fit in their roles perfectly and the chemistry is amazing!!
Park Seo Joon is Flawless.He's great in both Comic scenes & romantic scenes, he looks cute & hot at the same time.????????Supporting cast is best, I laughed most of the time because of their hilarious scenes. Worth watching because of each & every actor of this drama.Specially Director Park ( Kang ki- yang ) & his secretary, their comic timing is hilarious & you'll definitely laugh.Best in Comedy, Best in Romance.

A masterpiece for office romance lovers, a sweet time pass for others

I've been watching Korean dramas since 2020 and what's wrong with secretary Kim was the second drama I watched. I absolutely fell in love. I can't say this enough, Park Min Young does wonders when it comes to office dramas and this one was one of them. And yes Park Seo-joon wearing suits is an eye candy.

Now the actual review, i'll keep it short and simple because I myself don't like reading very long reviews, I've always been a fan of tropes like possessive/jealous male lead, office romance, male chases female first, and I love cliches so this drama was an amazing watch for me. the combination of both childish male lead and the mature responsible female lead complimented each other very well.
The chemistry between the Park-Park couple was insane. I have been recommending this drama to my friends ever since I've watched it and trust me everyone loved it. Nonetheless, there were some downfalls during the whole story which included the mental trauma among the leads, I found it a bit exaggerated but that's obviously my own opinion, overall if you want a drama that has zero to no evil antagonists this one is definitely for you. Also, props to the stylists.

And Please don't let any review stop you from watching something you actually want to watch because I've found many dramas that I thought were worth watching after ignoring some useless review (of course there were some exceptions).

Hope this helps!! <3

What a sweet little nugget of a drama! Watch this drama if you want to see a great story, that has almost everything it's happy, funny, sweet, exciting, and sad. The story unfolds beautifully, the ML starts out as a narcissistic, self absorbed VP of a company and then the story unveils that those characteristics arose from a childhood trauma he shared with the FL. The FL, his secretary, Kim Min Young is loyal, dependable and very, very patient with the ML. She anticipates his every need and has given the last nine years of her life to her boss and the company and now wants a break. She tries to leave the company and this is how the story begins, Park Min Young who plays the secretary, is absolutely flawless in her acting, I liked her so much better here than in "Healer" and "City Hunter". Her acting has improved immensely and she is absolutely stunning in this drama. The ML and FL are very attractive and sweet together, the chemistry is palpable. The back story of the the childhood kidnapping only improves and moves the romance and their deep connection along. The small story line with the brother becoming another suitor also helps the ML solidify his feelings for the FL. No where did I want to skip scenes. The supporting cast is great and because there are no usual tropes, like amnesia or hereditary disease the story doesn't become frustrating. If you want to watch a rom-com with a serious side note this is the one for you. Please enjoy!

The story definitely sounds like a cliche, but at the same time, it tries to get away from that.
Also, the story is very light and dreamful.
This drama is so damn enjoyable and funny. I was laughing like a crazy person in every episode.
The characters were so simple but sooo funny, there's not a single "annoying" character, the vice president (Park Seo Joon) can be very self absorbed, but he was so sweet and funny XD
The chemistry was so good, it felt like they were really in love, I watched the bts and they are so cute. The problem was how much they cared about the past. Felt like 50% of their romance was because of the past and the other 50% was about the present.
I loved all of the support characters mainly Bong Se-Ra (Hwang Bo-Ra). The other couples were so funny. The vice president’s brother was very "radom" or "invisible" because most of viewers didn't really care about him (I think).
I can quite see this is a work of the same director of "Because This Is My First Life". He really likes to put comic sounds in the background. I hope he can someday make a drama based in the webtoon "Who invited you"!
So "what's wrong with secretary Kim" was one of the most anticipated dramas of the year, it had great reviews and popularity and it will be one of the best dramas ever.
A must-watch!

Just Amazing

I'm not a huge fan of sweet or cheesy cliché romances maybe because I'm Indian and Bollywood makes some of the most cheesiest and cringey worthy movies (sorry for Bollywood shade, if anybody didn't like), but this show was so good in the romance aspect and how well it was portrayed that I didn't feel cheesy scenes were bad or cliché (there were only few Btw) but they were sweet and always made me laugh or put a smile on my face which amazing coz I'm not a very emotionally expressive person and this also weird coz it made cry too (very little though,/ like tears didn't even come to my eyes but was about to 😅). Apart from those cheesy scenes, there was great scenes with amazing acting, beautiful actors, both leads are incredibly gorgeous that was one of the reasons why I started watching this show, coz of Park Seo‑joon Hyung (PSJ), and got introduced too Park Min young (PMY).
There were toxic relationships, good communication, any conflict resolved soon not waiting for the last episode. No over the top villains, [⚠spoiler ⚠] the brother was annoying when he didn't get PMY. One thing I was a little off about was trauma cliché [ ⚠spoiler ends ⚠] but not enough to take my interest away coz it was portrayed very Good.
Loved the side love stories or their funny moments.
So
Story - 9/10
Cast or Acting of main characters - 10/10

What's Wrong with Secretary Kim - Resenha Crítica

Em What's Wrong with Secretary Kim, Lee Young-joon é o vice-presidente de uma enorme corporação. Porém, seu mundo é tirado do eixo quando sua competente secretária, Kim Mi-so, anuncia sua imediata demissão de seu cargo depois de trabalhar com ele por nove anos. Lee Young-joon, então, decide que fará o que for necessário para convencer Kim Mi-so a não abandoná-lo.

A trama começa de uma maneira muito interessante quando, Lee Young-joon tenta conquista-la. É muito interessante ver a maneira como a relação dos personagens vai avançando e os obstáculos enfrentados para que eles pudessem continuar juntos. Atuação e execução dos personagens impecáveis. Adoro a maneira como o ator Park Seo-joon evoluiu em seu personagem Lee Young-joon, não só psicologicamente, sua atuação evoluiu muito. E o mais interessante nessa evolução, é que o personagem não perdeu a sua essência em nenhum momento

Quando vi a sinopse, admito que fiquei intrigada, porém, ela é fiel a história. Drama super organizado, com cenas super fofas e engraçadas.

Uma das coisas que eu mais amei nesse drama foi a imprevisibilidade na história, ninguém poderia imaginar que teria um desfecho como esse. Amei o foco que deram na história dos personagens, eu particularmente adoro quando contam sua história e origem.

Outro fato que eu amei nesse drama, é que não precisei shippar errado, pois já sabia que eles ficariam juntos, mas, só a ideia da Kim Mi-So cogitar a ideia de ficar com o Lee Sung-Yeon (irmão de Lee Young-joon) me dá calafrios, também fiquei com muita raiva do Lee Sung-Yeon colocar a culpa no Lee Young-joon pra tudo pelo trauma que ele fez, mesmo o trauma n sendo dele, e sim do Lee Young-joon. Mesmo sendo enganado por esse assunto do trauma, fico um pouco chateada com o Lee Sung-Yeon, pois imagino como o Lee Young-joon se sentia tendo o seu trauma roubado pelo irmão

Encerrar essa resenha crítica sem mencionar a trilha sonora seria um erro, impecável, essa é a palavra, trilha sonora muito bem planejada, que até conseguiu me viciar em uma das músicas

Eu assisti o drama no aplicativo "drama fansubs", porém, existe do mesmo em formato de site. Eu super recomendaria, inclusive é um dos meus dramas favoritos, já assisti duas vezes e com certeza voltarei a ver novamente!
