Agency

Great K-Drama, for a change starring a FL who is slaying all the men making her way up the ladder in the competitive advertising agency field. The FL,fought her way up all the way from the bottom copywriter to the top CEO beating cheating networking males that wouldn't let he in the good old boys club. She is more cunning and smart in the long run - grew up by herself, basically mostly an orphan who had to fend for herself, she is relentless in finding ways and never giving up. Took off 1 star as they could have developed more of a romance with the guy who showed interest in her a few times which never really materialized although they had great banter.

Have you ever watched a show that leaves you breathless, inspired, and emotionally charged all at once? AGENCY isn't just a drama; it's a revelation. From its first scene to the last, this Korean web series delivers a rollercoaster of emotions, wrapped in power-packed performances and an intricately layered narrative.

At its core, AGENCY is a story about ambition. It chronicles the relentless journey of Go Ah-in, a fiercely determined woman who navigates the high-stakes world of advertising with unmatched grit and intelligence. Her rise from an underdog to an industry leader is portrayed with such authenticity that you can't help but root for her, cry with her, and cheer for her victories.

What truly sets this series apart is its raw portrayal of workplace dynamics. The cutthroat competition, gender bias, and backdoor politics are all too real, yet the show weaves in moments of camaraderie and redemption that tug at your heartstrings. Every character, even those you love to hate, has depth and nuance that make them unforgettable.

The writing is razor-sharp, filled with dialogues that inspire and linger long after the credits roll. The cinematography is breathtaking, capturing both the cold sterility of corporate boardrooms and the vibrant creativity of advertising campaigns. And the background score? It feels like a heartbeat, perfectly amplifying every scene's intensity.

But beyond its technical brilliance, AGENCY teaches profound lessons: the importance of resilience, the value of emotional intelligence, and the beauty of staying true to yourself even in the face of overwhelming odds. It's not just a career-centric drama-it's a life manual for anyone striving to break barriers and shatter glass ceilings.

As someone who has fallen head over heels for this series, I can confidently say AGENCY is more than just entertainment; it's an experience. It made me laugh, cry, reflect, and dream bigger than ever.

If you're searching for a show that's both inspiring and emotionally overwhelming, look no further. AGENCY will grip your heart, fuel your ambition, and leave you wanting more. Watch it, feel it, and let it transform you. 🌟

I will watch any series/film Lee Bo Young is in. She's one of my top 10 favorite actors as is her great husband, Ji Sung. And the entire cast in this one is also outstanding along with most of the writing and directing.

Though I usually don't care for boardroom politics and business shenanigan plots-which sometimes bog down this story also-it is generally a very enjoyable, satisfying series. Particularly fine are the delightful engagements of characters and, except for the occasional unfortunate screeching, the strong, confident women in mutually supportive and leadership roles are a delight.

A wonderful portrayal of corporate Korea led by deeply explored personal characterizations.

While the setting is centered around an advertising agency, the title reflects the underlying core theme of self-determination, of agency as a fundamental source of motivation - the need to be in control of one's own destiny. Each character throughout the series demonstrates how they fight for personal agency and the attempt to cast off the oppressiveness of corporate control.

A wonderful and enthralling series with characters both good and bad that evoke a feeling of understanding and empathy. This is a real highlight in Korean drama. Worth re-watching a second time.

And yes the acting is superb and the visuals are stunning. This is great viewing.

Go A-In (Lee Bo-Young) works at an advertising agency where she is promoted to director but there are reasons behind the promotion and the powers that be plan to sideline her after a year. The series looks at her struggles in the male dominated agency and the lengths she has to go to as a female to survive. The cast are superb and we have many other characters who's stories are also interesting and entertaining. I really enjoyed the plot and may well have given it a nine but various aspects of the story fell short for me. Some of the lesser side characters like her mother who abandoned her as a child are forgotten as soon as the story is resolved and also a competitor who's life is saved seemed shoehorned into the series. That being said it is still an entertaining ride in which you cheer for her success.
