Strong Woman Do Bong Soon is a classic, but it didn't quite do it for me. I loved the show at first — Park Hyungsik and Park Bo Young have "it," you know? And the dialogue was laugh-out-loud funny! But around the halfway mark, the show started to drag for me... to the point that I was falling asleep in EVERY SINGLE EPISODE. There was just so much fluff and filler! I could've done without the entire gangster, temple, young thug, and neighbourhood ahjumma storylines.

Wait a second, that's almost all the show, isn't it? But wait, I disliked the whole serial killer premise too! It was so scary and unnecessarily at odds with the rest of this cheery show. I understood why we had it — without that plotline, we'd just have an entire show of episode 16 (the princess saves Min Min and they live happily ever after). And yes, I fell asleep for part of the fluffy last episode too. The scenes at Ahn Min Hyuk's place were my favourite. I finally got to see the ICONIC giggly bed texting scene in all its glory!

I disliked how Do Bong Soon was largely helpless for a lot of the show, despite her strength. I recognize the police were intentionally painted as incompetent, but CEO Ahn Min Hyuk felt too helpless too. C'mon dude, use your goodies, resources, and tricks! He did (eventually), but for the longest time, I couldn't believe that he wasn't able to catch the villain. Also, what happened to Ahn Min Hyuk's whole family storyline? That felt weirdly open to me, unless I just missed something (not only did I fall asleep in half the episodes, but I also took a looooong break before finally finishing this show today).

Watch this show for the actors. They click, they're fun, and they're charming. Park Bo Young couldn't cry well. But if you can look past that, the characters are absolutely endearing.
