Start-Up

This drama was really entertaining and fun to watch. Suzy and the cast were amazing. The scenes and love stories were beautiful. It was inspiring to watch a story about the growth of young people as they tried to follow their dreams.

From the strong start to the complete satisfying ending this is a fun and inspiring show. A clever combination of the ups and downs of start up business with romance and nice characters. Each of their learning experiences feels like a valuable lesson to the viewer. The love triangle isn't overdone and both are nice guys but it's clear who is the one. The first episode is one of the more involving and touching openings in K drama with an emotionally gripping back story. Shout out to Kim Joo Hun as Seo Dal Mi's father and Nam Da Reum as younger Han Ji Pyeong and grandma Kim Hae Sook who any K drama fan will know. A real 2020s heroine, Suzy Bae as Seo Dal Mi looks pretty here and intelligent. She doesn't overact. Nam Joo Hyuk as Nam Do San is right for the role tall enough to be a love interest but slightly dorky as the nerdy character should be. Kim Seon Ho has a breakout role here as an investor who is blunt but right. The sets are colorful and modern and the business ideas are made to feel interesting and relevant. Although it does show 2 men rescuing/protecting a woman it feels more of an equal contribution than in past K dramas. Amusing romance between CLOY actor Yoo Soo Bin and Stephanie Lee. Funny use of big hands.

If Crash Landing on You was the best of 2019, Start-up is set to be the best of 2020. Everything about this drama will make you feel happy from inside. Nam and Suzy are captivating. Start-ups fail 99/100 times and it isn't an easy world to live in. This is probably the most relatable drama after Itaewon Class I have seen.

I don't usually post reviews on series, but I felt an obligation after finishing Start-Up. First, I think it was a very well-written script well character development, relatable, encouraging, music was significant, and the actors were amazing. I am not an expert in art and theater, so I can only speak for what it made me feel. I highly recommend watching it; it starts a bit slow as they need to set the proper foundation for developing the story. It has a highly positive message of perseverance and working hard toward your goals. I think it also opens the door to show how much of support system people with a dream need, and it allows us to see what's possible with the right desire and dream. I know it is not a real-life story, but I want to believe that things like this could happen. Thanks to the cast for the fantastic journey. I look forward to season two... All the best!

You rarely get to see such series! I literally wait for every weekend to come for new episodes on Netflix. You get almost everything you ask for in a Sitcom.

The sequence of events, background score, acting everything is perfect about this. Every episode has an interesting ending which forces you to wait/watch the next one. Not many series are so planned like this, the story has a very riviting turning point at the end of every episode. How good these Korean scripts have come up the curve over the time.

Hands down to the whole team! Thanks for making my weekends more interesting guys.
