Great show but predicable
This show is so funny and charming. Story is very predictable though but the 2 main cast are really fun together and have great chemistryThe FL is very beautiful, elegant, funny and charming. The ML also is charming. His role doesn't require him to do much but he did great for what was giving to him.
This show did get really dark by mid way through since the main leads do have some really dark back stories.
But it was predicable though as things went along.
What's wrong with secretary kim is definitely a must watch for anyone who likes funny and charming kdrama.

Pretty decent drama with one annoying female lead at time.
I've finished this showI liked it. However more than half of the show is absolutely painful to get through because the main female lead is super annoying and has some type of superiority complex.
Really got on my nerves. She became likeable almost the end of it but omg, what the hell lol.
Also the last two episodes on the show turned into super depressing, and lot of crazy coincidental events one after the other.
I was omg, what the hell is happening.
The main lead guy has to be the most unlucky main character in term of love life and family members.
I do think the two leads do have great chemistry together but she was written as someone super stuck up and annoying
But she got over it as the show goes on but it took way too freaking long for that to happen. She became very supportive, lovable and caring to him specially during tough times when he had to keep his emotions and feelings to himself due to lot of trauma.
Will I watch this again? Probably not since I didn't like the female lead lol
She's adorable though. She has cute dimples and him as well.
I've seen people calling them the dimple couple. It fits.
The show is super slow and it's not funny, there isn't any characters there that stands out. Just a very slow burn.
Just a very basic kdrama.
Episode 15-16
Hell even started on episode 14 tbh lol
Absolutely depressing af lol
But anyway 8/10 seems fair.

Very cliche but amazing well made and fun
The cast are amazing for this. Everyone got great lines and delivery and the situation is sometimes so out of this world,you just have to sit and watch everything unfold into madness lolI'm surprised these well put together shows and also very popular shows don't get more seasons but I'm sure there more stories they can tell but I guess they don't over stay their welcome.
But I do enjoy this one a lot. The main 4 cast members are amazing.
Looking forward seeing more stuff about all of them.
I've already seen the other brother in other stuff already.

Pretty good, not great drama.
Very well done premiseThey didn't make any north Koreans look like fools or anything.
They treated everyone with respect.
Plus it was a very nice recreation of north Korea.
The two leads have great chemistry as well and no wonder they got married lol
I don't really have any issue with the drama just surprised it is over 9.0
Funny enough my rating is also over 9.0 only because I loved the cast and how well everyone played their roles.
My rating is 9.0 because I don't wanna bring this down lol
But I'd give it around 7.5

Absolutely amazing from all around.
This show is so amazingly well done.Amazing production and creativity in story telling and camera work
The main 3 actors and specially the actress is so amazing.
She's very beautiful as well
She brought so much to her role since she also had to go through a lot.
She's also very funny. Most of the funny lines came from her.
And other actors also have great chemistry as well and with her. The older brother might put some people off and sometimes might get on people nerves but he's autistic so that's fine.
I hope so see her and the other main actor in more stuff.
I wish it didn't have to end but I did enjoy the story.

Amazing show with some big and sad problem..
I love kdrama and I got into it because of these type of funny and heartwarming shows like this.However, as someone of color. I was sad do see how they have a fake black Korean that had all bad steorypes.
They even called him monkey once. Pretty wild.
I honestly wouldn't have any issues with him having fake black skin/Black makeup if the character had depth and had a good story.
They went out of their way to tell us he's full blown Korean, not black lol.
Other than that. The whole cast is great.
The leads specially KYJ. She's so beautiful and charming. Hope to watch more of her stuff.
The actor is also amazing. His acting is amazing.
The ending felt really rushed sadly.
One character did something really bad by basically cheated but that never brought up.
Season 2 seems to be confirmed.
Hopefully there are kisses in new seasons, less problematic stories. lol.
Other than that. I will still rate it well.

The best written couple ever!
Ooh man, if the end of episode 15 was a real breakup. I would have rated this a 5 but it was a fake out lolI do absolutely enjoy this show.
It is well Witten and acted. So many be great characters. The 3 females friendship
Simply the best. There aren't a lot of bad tropes, like FL didn't have any past connection with the ML etc.
No random villain or any crazy trauma,besides ML mom that had left him at young age and I was happy they didn't drag that for 3-4 episodes. She gave a perfect great excuse and I bought it.
The leads, their chemistry is absolutely incredible.
Alhough the ML played a rich boy type of character. I appreciate that at the end of the series when she decided she wanted to quit and had her own hotel. He didn't use his money to help her. He just supported her, he left her truly be on her own. She had to take a mortgage lol I find that funny lol
They didn't have random breakup half way through. Even though, so many things got in their way, they stuck together and always talked things through.
I really hope more couples do get written this well. I have a thing for bad tropes. If I roll my eyes at your tropes, well your score will get lowered lol
Anyway
I loved how they showed how difficult it is to work in customer service. The hotel, flight attendant stuff and the store. Good stuff.
The ML on episode 15 finally to show some range after he met his mother. Glad he got to show some good acting.
And of course, the FL is absolutely adorable, charming and with great personality.
No loose end.
Only character I didn't like was the sister.
She was some hater bro. She came around for her son but at that time, I was already done with her.
I definitely would watch this again.
