Behind Every Star

This K-Drama was only 12 episodes long, and I watched it all, but I was glad when it was over. The only 2 characters I really cared to watch was the male lead Director Ma played by Seo-jin Lee who fit the profile perfectly and made me have empathy for him since his "mistake" was too many years ago. I felt his wife was a little harsh on him and also loved the way that he finally started taking responsibility for his daughter. The other character I liked was the side story accountant - a different kind of guy in the scheme of things and not even connected to the agency but loved his character. Although the description of the show mentions comedy, I didn't see any comedic scenes to speak of - it is more 100% drama IMO. The one thing I didn't like about the show is that it seemed like it was an advertisement for Netflix's Squid Games as some of the actors starred in that show and they were quite a few references to it in the script - as well as an actual scene of a game show that was reminiscent of Squid Games featured at the agency and in preparation of doing the show virtual reality headsets were used to overcome fear of heights and falling. Wondering if Netflix is getting ready to put out the sequence to Squid Games as have heard there is filming perhaps in Chicago and maybe other cities, thus the promos.
