Business Proposal

I love this drama! I think it is one of the funniest K-dramas I have watched so far. After watching so many serious dramas with action and mind boggling plot twists, I was in the mood for something light hearted and stumbled across this on netflix. If you are looking for something less serious and want to laugh this is the one to watch.

I'll start by saying the plot doesn't bring anything original to the table. Now with that out of the way...

Everything from character development, makeup, typical clichés, romance, and the comedic scenes are exaggerated to such a degree that you cannot help yourself from laughing out loud. The show is pure entertainment and sometimes it makes you wonder whether it takes itself seriously. The smooth transition between plot development and outrageously funny scenes is nothing short of brilliant.

This goes on for the first 8 episodes or so. Once it transitions into the later stages it takes a sharp turn towards typical Korean rom com. Which isn't bad in itself but it did leave me sightly disappointed. It left me with the impression that it started incredibly strong and ended on a low note.

The chemistry between the couples is one of the show's strongest points. You can clearly tell they are extremely comfortable in each other's presence. The portrayal of both a conservative and libertine couple is also well done with ample screen time to develop both relationships.

I would definitely recommend it if you're looking for a light hearted romantic comedy with a unique sense of humour.

A girl working in a food development department for a large company agrees to go on a blind date in place of a wealthy friend. On the date she misbehaves in order for him to reject her, what she does not realise is the man she meets is the heir to the company. It is a romantic comedy which has some laugh out loud moments particularly the first encounter of the stars Ahn Hyo-seop and Kim Se-jeong who in their interactions are very believable. There is also a second romantic couple played by Seol In-ah and Kim Min-kyu who have a different vibe but their story is also enchanting. The rest of the cast are superb with many lighthearted moments in there interactions with each other and the leads. An easy viewing lighthearted drama spread over 12 episodes which will lift your spirits and make you smile.

I can't get enough of The Office Blind Date (A Business Proposal in the US on Netflix). It is the most hysterical corporate K-drama I have ever watched and just finished Episode 3 and 4. I couldn't stop laughing for practically any moment, and that says a lot because not much makes me laugh. It is a good thing that I have to wait another week for Episode 5 because I don't think I could stand that much laughter in one day. I love the leading male, Aho Hyo-Seop as Kang Tae Mu and also the leading female Se-Jeong Kim as Shin Ha Ri. I very rarely mention a female star so that says a lot about Se-Jeong Kim; she brings so much to the show.

If you searching for some comedy romance genre this drama would be a perfect choice for it has a beautiful story and the whole cast is fabulous! I loved every minute!! Very meaningful and healing. It's funny and worth watching for sure! I am Loving it!!
