Kkondae Intern

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.

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.

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!

" Kkondae Intern " was, unexpectedly, quite enjoyable.

The comedy parts of the drama were solid, as the 'bromance' between the two leads was A) well-paced and took its time to mature, B) the two leads had chemistry which helped a lot. Also, there was no unnecessary romantic drama added to it, even though there were some specks of romance to the story. But, overall, the story was kept clean and business-focused. Another plus was the team dynamics, although there were some senior characters that tended to be left out of the equation.

The whole chaebol drama was nice too, even though it was kind of predictable. The drama had some moments that felt rushed too. An example is the ending. That episode had actually started nicely and smoothly, however, towards the ending, it was a bit messy.

Finally, the performances were quite good from everyone in the cast. The length of the drama was just enough as well for the story to be well presented.

So, overall, seven and a half out of ten.
