More comedy and slight melodrama, than “rom”-com to be honest.
I only picked up this drama because I love Kim Se Jeong in Business Proposal and Busted, she was really humble and kind and cute in that reality show. We all know she can act, based on her performance on Uncanny Counter too.
When I first started the drama, it was really funny, light and exactly what I was looking for. I wasn’t sure if there was going to be a full blown romance, but I didn’t really care. I personally read manga, manhwa and Webtoon comics, so the storyline really interested me.
I enjoyed the rag-tag cast, I enjoyed the eccentric artist, especially Im Chul Soo from It’s okay to be Not okay. So yeah, with ALL THAT SAID, there was something about this drama that I just couldn’t 100% connect once it got deeper into the issues / drama.
1.) The MAIN storyline of the group / department wouldn’t last one year if they couldn’t turn it around, was a very dragged out storyline. Within the first 20 mins of the show we realized this is the storyline and it was the MAIN storyline that you will hear OVER AND OVER again. This was very frustrating and I just wanted to look at the other characters.
2.) There wasn’t a romantic storyline, which would have been fine, but it was odd to see one kind of thrown in there last minute and the writers tried to peek your interest by making you question who would be the guy. I wouldn’t even call this a love triangle because the main FL was unaware to everything. Besides some glances here and there, they really could have cut that whole part out.
3.) I enjoyed that the artists had their own issues and problems, but again, once they had a problem and it was solved, they kept on coming back with additional problems. It took me awhile to figure out they were part of the cast, but I think it would have been better to have more artists come or have different issues outside of them. It was just very repetitive.
4.) FL wardrobe! So, they cut her beautiful hair and I was fine with that, she actually looked cute with a bob, but why in the world did they dress her like Dora the Explorer with those oversized baggy pants with a dress shirt and doc martins? She looked utterly ridiculous and off putting. Just a BIG NO wardrobe people.
The drama was different in the sense it focused on comics, but it was very political, highly repetitive, dragged-out and the romantic side was non-existent. It’s good if you like the casting and are into political dramas, because even though it’s based on comics, it’s really about corporations. So, you could have inserted any kind of corporation into the storyline.
