Pretendente Surpresa (2022)

cute lil romcom !!

It's a cute short romcom. At its 12 episode count, it's not that big of an investment to make. The plot has been done countless times before, however the show is surprisingly refreshing, because of its comedy moments. The comedy made the show shine. The chemistry between both of the couples are really strong and I enjoyed seeing them fall in love. Despite the show being cliche it made fun of the fact that it had cliches with the grandpa's favorite show lol. The ending is where it really fell off. It was way to rushed! and the grandpa doing a complete 180 was just lazy writing. I understand that thier needed to be some conflict but it wasn't natural AT ALL.
I'd recommend it if you have an empty weekend where you want to turn your brain off, and watch a fluffy drama!!

English is not my first language, sorry for the grammar error.

I honestly had a lot of expectation for this drama, which is why I am tad disappointed. I really like the storyline, visuls, and acting, but the plot flow was really slow despite it being 12 episodes. She kept rejecting him until epsiode 9 and expected a lot of sweet moments after that, which wasn't bad. Then a big problem arises that could have been solved in one episode but they kept going with it. And I thought they would have atleast ep 12 be all about them but the issue kept going until ep 12 which caused them to be in a long distance relationship. I read the webtoon version of this, and I know the webtoon and the drama is suppose to be different, but I thought they would atleast include the wedding scene at the end or the proposal scene(she ends up proposing) which I thought was a big character development for FL because she always cared about people's opinions about her relationship. I also like how grandpa loved her even when they revealed who she was. He was a little mad but it wasn't bad at all. And he never got sick in the webtoon. Overall it was funny, good, and steamy. But the plot was kind of slow for me.

One of the best rom-coms

This drama was honestly a very big surprise for me. At first I had ignored it because I didn't really know anyone in the cast apart from Kim Mingue, but I decided to watch it after I had seen so many people praising the chemistry between the leads - and they were right for doing so!

This drama has an amazing cast which does such good job at portraying the roles. Not only the romance is incredible, but also the friendships. There were pure friendships, where people support each other, listen to each other, have fun and -sometimes- get drunk XD

When people say that this drama is like a cup of hot chocolate during the cold winter, they are absolutely right! This drama immediately improves your mood and it is just what you need as a break from the stress of daily life thanks to its lighthearted nature and easy-to-follow plot.

I totally recommend this to everyone!

A heartwarming cliche

This show was so heartwarming and funny. The relationships are well thought out and developed. The is the right way to do a cliche. There were also some very sexy scenes in the show. Nothing too graphic though. It definitely felt like you were seeing every side to their relationship. Every episode keeps you on your toes and going for more. Overall, this is a very heartwarming and funny romcom cliche with a bit of a mature side. This show is very balanced as well, and places every scene at it's needed time. I love the way the relationships were portrayed and think they did a very good job adapting this webcomic. I highly recommend it!

Clichê dos bons

Esse drama é tudo o que tem de mais clichê no mundo da doramaland, porém de um jeito bom e divertido. Adorei. Dei boas risadas com a parte de comédia e senti o friozinho na barriga com os casais, tanto o casal de protagonistas, como com o segundo casal. Talvez até um pouco mais com o segundo casal, embora em alguns momentos eu tenha achado a Young Seo um pouco chatinha (tipo naquela cena da caminhada na montanha), mas ainda assim um casal com bastante química (queria até mais deles dois, os atores são muito fofos juntos).

Mas, infelizmente, o drama também sofre de um probleminha comum em muito dramas. Da metade para o fim parece que o roteirista perdeu a mão e deixou a desejar, mas isso não quer dizer que não valha a pena. Claro que não. Ainda acho um bom drama. Foi divertido de acompanhar. A prova de que dramas clichês têm o seu valor e, se bem dosados, podem deixar tudo ainda melhor.

perfect romantic comedy

if you love romance you must watch this one.
everything is just RIGHT in this comedy. it's easy to watch, it's light, it's funny, there is the right amount of turn around, the right amount of laughs and you have characters' development. it's full of cliches, but it is so well done that everything just slide down the throat.

synopsis; Hari and Youngseo are best friends since school. but, if Youngseo is a chaebol (a rich heir), Hari's parents run a fried chicken restaurant and have a lot of debts. she works in a big corporate as food researcher and support her parents. one day Youngseo ask Hari to go to a blind date in her name and do whatever is needed to push the pretender away... the problem is, the so called pretender has already decided to marry whoever will show up at his first blind date.

what I liked; the 2 main leads know how to kiss. It was my first time watching a Korean drama and being excited by the loving touch of the actors. Koreans actors don’t know how to kiss, but I promise these two do. just because of that, this drama is now one of my favorites.
what I didn't like; the end was a little short and lacked a sense of closure.

when to watch; not for under 15 viewers (sex scenes).
go all in and invite your lover. you will have a good time! say hi to Samantha and Rachel for me!

O melhor tipo de cliche

Amei demais esse drama!! Eu realmente recomendo, especialmente para pessoas que estão começando a assistir Doramas agr, é fofo, divertido e não fica chato. Esse foi o primeiro drama que assisti e o motivo pelo qual me apaixonei por k dramas. O relacionamento de Ha Ri e Tae Moo é muito fofo e bem desenvolvido. Os personagens secundários são incríveis! Na minha opinião, o romance dos personagens secundários foi tão bom quanto se não ainda melhor que o principal. Não ou muito confiável quando falo sobre dramas com o Ahn Hyo-Seop, porque eu amo muito ele e o jeito que ele atua. Posso dizer com certeza que esse é um dos melhores dramas que já assisti.

Samantha and Rachel, the Twins

Funny Cliché Story much much tamer than the Webtoon

I did a major eye roll when starting this with GF, it was going to be another cold good looking Chaebol Heir falling head over heels with poor or average girl because she's so special. I mean that is soooo gonna happen right?

It turned out to be better than expected. No thinking required for this type of cliché drama. It pokes fun of typical Asian drama clichés and at itself. There were some absolutely hilarious scenes in the first half of the show. The first blind date was pee in your pants funny. That scene really nailed it. Samantha and Rachel? Who was the writer who thought of that? Let's just say the FL violated every proper and conservative S. Korean blind date etiquette. WOWZA for the FL's clothing choices in the dates. The drunken scene of the two FLs was pretty comedic, they are two really cute girls. The chemistry between the leads was good for the most part.

I would say probably about 3/4 of it was funny and kept your attention. As it got down to the last few episodes, it wasn't that great and felt like the gas ran out. Things felt kind of forced for closure and between the leads.

It's a light hearted funny show that is worth watching for some laughs and to lighten one's mood.

If you want a cliché rom-com then watch A Bussiness Proposal

This kdrama was a must watch when the trailer came out, everyone was talking about it and it's the usual rom-com clichés we all enjoy from time to time, myself included.

And I enjoyed it, a lot.

Some things were a bit too much sometimes thought. I love Ahn Hyo Seop's acting and he did a great job as Tae Moo but sometimes it was a bit awkward and he really felt like he was plaing a character, even in the drama, which isn't exactly good since he's supposed to be that character.

Kim Se Jeong played an amazing Hari and Young Seo's best friend. Watching, I really felt like they were friends for a long time. Both Se Jeong and Seol In Ah played their characters to a T.

Kim Min Gue, as usual, played an awesome Cha Sung Hoon, and had great chemistry, both with Hye Seop and In Ah.

The second lead couple had amazing chemistry and maybe they should've more screentime.

The main cast was really good overall and I totally recommend watching this kdrama.

Done before, but we still love it

There's not much to say about this drama, honestly (I say, as I write an essay about it). It's your classic rom-com format with a bunch of clichés thrown in it and, yet, it's difficult to dislike this drama. It's not revolutionary by any means, but it's still a nice love story, with endearing characters and, well, I think clichés are so famous and utilized for a reason. They just work, and combined with the lighthearted plot, it becomes a very easy watch.

Ever since I saw Ahn Hyoseop in The Abyss I liked him and decided to follow his career more closely. All I can say is that I was not disappointed. He and the other actors are good in their performances and have good chemistry with one another. Aside from the main couple (which I obviously loved), I really enjoyed seeing the friendship between Hari and Youngseo. Finally a good female friendship where there's no rivalry between them. They are sweet and truely support each other. I guess I can say the same about Taemoo and Sunghoon, since in a lot of dramas two dudes end their friendship beacuse they like the same woman or something like that. In fact, this drama feels very refreshing since there's not really love triangles and a lot of the misunderstandings are solved quickly, without that usual unnecessary drag.

Another smart choice was actually making the drama with only 12 episodes. Unlike even other romance shows, this drama didn't really have a secondary plot or something else developing in the background. It was basically solely focused on the relationships between the characters, so they really had no material to make a full 16 episode show. Still, there were a few episodes after the main couples gets together that feel a bit boring, but they gain traction again towards the end.

There were also a few other things that bothered me a bit. I think some characters and subplots didn't receive proper closure, such as Youngseo's cousin and the whole thing with Yoora and Minwoo. Besides that, the ending itself was kinda disappointing. Taemoo and Hari did everything to not have to get separated and stay together, just for them to get separated anyway in the end. Not to mention the time skip, which just feel so overdone and lazy at this point.

There's also some other minor neative points in this show, although they're very common in dramas in general, like women waiting for the man to take the initiative and seek them first, cringy CGI, rejection portayed not as a "no", but as a "try a bit harder and I might say yes", or the RIDICULOUS amount of alcohol people consume in dramas. This one, in particular, I feel like happened at least once per episode and there was constantly someone getting drunk in the story. Please can we just stop condoning unhealthy habits like this or playing it off as cute or as a joke?

Still, I digress, because I think these negative points were pretty minor, specially in comparison with the positive ones. The only people who, I think, should not watch Business Proposal are the ones who either hate rom-coms or clichés. Otherwise, this drama will probably pleasy the majority of the public.
