Kkondae Intern

A young intern is bullied out of his job by a manager due to a series of events, years later the same manager comes to work at a company as a senior intern where the young intern is now a manager. The series starts well in the first episode but after that it fails to follow through. The actors do a fine job and parts of the story are amusing but overall it feels too rushed with little character development and a plot that just gets you from point to point. I think the writing team came up with ideas and then just cobbled them together, which is sad as it could have been really good.

It gave me memories of my second job. My manager was very rude to me, I was separated from my colleagues and made sit next to managers cubicals , so I was the punching bag for almost 18 months, was made to work overtime , weekends and on public holidays, my vacation was cut short, my work was given credit to others.i wish I get a chance like this.

This was a decent watch that mostly kept my interest throughout. Some of the comedy fell a bit flat but for the most part it was funny. The two male leads had a lot of character development - they were fully fleshed out, three-dimensional characters. Overall it was an okay show.

The ending was really rushed, it really took me by surprise when I realised I was on the last episode. However, other than that I thoroughly enjoyed this kdrama and pretty much binge watched it. There was something really great about watching characters doing something every day that we all do- go to work. I also really liked that none of the characters are created to be 'perfect' or aspirational and are all very flawed. This is what makes them so human and this is what makes the story work as this drama is much more about character development than anything else. Characters who might have been a typical villain in another show we get to know and learn that behind the mask and unlikeable behaviours they are just so very human. The show explains how all of these very different and 'dysfunctional' characters share something in common: they just want to work hard to succeed in their job and take care of their families. Really great sense of humour, just don't expect a love story!

Never boring, sometimes surprising (with some out of the blue easter-eggs and cameos). Well acted and directed, upon a joyful, intelligent script. Congrats!
