I don't care for corporate dramas, but I watched because I like all the leads. The writing is uneven, and sometimes plotted slowly. There are some nice scenes-especially strong women characters and three interesting love stories. However: being a strong woman does not mean you repeatedly hurt the man who loves you. Either love him, or leave him alone, because no one deserves to be continually hurt. I think the writer blew this truth.

Mant people have mentioned the drama to be slow but the truth is that an business office environment is not super fast like a law office. In a business environment making a great change can take time. I really enjoyed the 3 female leads, who all had problems of their own. The romance was fine, except the romance between the main couple was annoying at times in my opinion. I really loved the business aspect of the drama, which was a change from the typical setting.

The best thin about this drama is that it has ZERO clichés, no stupid coincidences or forced and predictable moments.

I absolutely adore the fact that all main characters are women and they don't just support their male counterparts, they decide, and fight and live their lives without needing the guy to come and save the day ( like every other drama...) The male characters are also interesting and none compromised their values or personalities for the sake of an easy way out in the development of the script.

The story is very interesting and all the relationships are just so real, beautiful, meaningful, emotional, empowering... I love how friendship and loyalty are the main focus of the show. The main leads relationship keeps always hooked and their scenes are filled with desire and attraction.

This drama is setting example of how you can have female leads and make the audience fall in love with the story and enjoy it!

I cant believe it took me so long to watch this one and it has become one of my absolute favorites.

I rarely give any show 10 stars, but this one earned it. If you are looking for a light, sugary love story filled with romantic thrills and fluff, this one probably won't do it for you. HOWEVER, if you like edgy corporate/business stories, featuring mature, empowered, female leads, then don't hesitate! I have never seen such a modern, intelligent K-Drama with more badass yet relatable women! (OMG, Scarlett, the drama-junkie slayed me! 😂)

While this film does feature romance and relationship struggles, the story is about so much more than that. It looks at what it means to live as a conscientious adult (both publicly and privately), examining questions of morality, freedom, justice, and the responsibilities that come with love. At the same time, it is also a celebration of modern womanhood, and all 3 of the FL's are absolutely mesmerizing in their roles. (Can I just say, HOLY COW, THE CAR DEMOLITION SCENE!!! Avenging Queens with baseball bats? Yes please!)

In addition to the layered plot and sophisticated storytelling, the entire cast was just amazing. So talented! The soundtrack was also excellent and the filmography was gorgeous. There may have been a little more experimentation with soft focus and angles than I thought necessary, but not to the point of being distracting. Also, the subtitles on Viki are a bit lacking (but may be better elsewhere).

In short, I have no idea why this K-Drama isn't more highly rated, but it's as fresh as they come, with 3 dimensional characters who will draw you in and make you cheer. If you go for "real life" stories that are as human and exciting as they are thought provoking (especially if you are a woman), you should give this one a go. HIGHLY Recommended!!!

ROMANCE RATING: * * * 9.5/10. Although the storyline for this film has too much going on for me to consider it a "true" romance drama, the scenes featuring romantic contact are plentiful as well as invested, passionate and very adult. As may be expected of a K-Drama, while there are several bedroom scenes and references to sex, nothing ever gets too explicit. I would normally give this sort of approach 8.5 stars at most, but I added a star for sheer believability. There were 5+ kiss scenes, all of which were deep and prolonged with no shortage of sexual tension all around. JKY and LSJ both did an incredible job portraying their characters' complex emotions and their chemistry together was absolutely flawless.

The show was made so easy-to-understand even though it brings a really complex portal web business competition. The main girl has a really attractive personality (promise you wont get bored throughout the series :p). For me, the plus point from this series was the romantic dialog between the main casts (morgan-ta mi). The love problem with their age difference become a major problem. But its all wrapped with a really fun which the boy always has some good narration to seduce the older girl :). I know this movie can be better if the side character get a more fine ending.

I genuinely belive this k drama is underrated. Unlike other k dramas, it focuses on real life problems more. Apart from the love,love, part of the series it has a genuine friendly side of story of 3 successful women. It is a total package of love, action, women empowerment, comedy, good climax and good ending. I would say atleast give it a try once.🤗

What I didn't like about Search : WWW was:

The pace. It was kind of slow at times and they mixted the scenes a bit here and there.

The romance. It was slow at the begining. And they almost seemed like they didn't have chemistry, but that was solved quickly.

The business part. It was nice to see strong female leads, but the office story was confusing and didn't really appeal to me in the end.

Now, for what I liked:

The performances were really good from all the actresses and actors, but especially from the three ladies, who were incredible.

The second leading lady's romance. It was cute and adorable!!

The attitude of the drama.

I rewatched this drama for the second time and it was as good as the first time I watched it. I literally love all the characters, and also the storyline. This is my favorite kdrama so far so 100% recommended!

I think Lee Da Hae's partner could have been better. Maybe she should have been the partner of Jang Ki yong. Although the main female lead has a good chemistry with JKY, I find her acting insufficient for the role. Her voice is always whispering, with her eyes always widening up and her mouth barely opening and looks like pouting, I cant even understand what she's saying. The story was interesting and relevant social and political issue but it lacks more content and was just repetitive.

Liked this drama mostly because it explored the roles of woman in different positions of power in a very updated setting. They dealt with issues such as navigating relationships between an older woman and a younger man, question of marriage options and more interesting aspects.

Friendship, business, romance, about separation, about differences of opinion, family, for the storyline may be fairly slow, but the development in the story starting from the conflict is very beautiful, there are so many lessons that can be taken from the drama.

This is no Start-up, with cliched directing, story, love line. This was the epitome of tech/office focused drama that I have seen compared to past and future dramas like My Holo Love, Alhambra etc. Everything about it was tastefully executed to the highest degree. Perfect example is the advertising, very blatant that Maserati was a sponsor but the fact that I didn't have to watch awkward scenes that take away from the story as in eating pizza or sandwiches everyday and awkward acting when trying to talk and show the product within the story. The casting was excellent. Really disappointed that I didn't watch this sooner on other service but definitely a watch.

Can be little slow Most annoying thing the fact they all seem to drive maseratis! Bad ad placement

I have been watching Korean drama all day during this lockdown but this series is one of the best I have seen.Maybe I like slow paced drama

The plot was good and promising. Actors too did well.

But the screenwriting was a let down. You wouldn't be able to emotionally attach or connect to the show completely, nope not even for a min. Screenplay was really a let down.

Two web portals compete to be the top search engine, whilst facing difficult decisions and outside interference. The main characters are the 3 women who work at these companies and their tangled personal life's. It is an original and interesting plot and all the actors do a sterling job. Nicely paced over 16 episodes and good to see all the main protagonists are strong females.

Actors ***** Imtrigue **** Villains **** Romance ***** Sidekicks ***** (strong supporting acress Lee Da Hee) Comedy ***

Bae Ta Mi (Im Soo Jung) is the director of a search engine platform named Unicon. And her dream is to make Unicom the country's biggest search engine platform. Unfortunatellyt her perfect world comes tumbling down when she finds herself out of a job.

After findinbg out that her mentor Song Ga Kyung (Jeon Hye Jin), was the one that schemed everything Bae Ta Mi decides to take revenge and joins Unicon's biggest rival, Baro.

Luckily she meets a young video game music maker Park Mo Geon (Jang Ki Yong) that is simply mad about her.

Can a new romance and a busy working life successfully mix together and give her everything she ever wanted? Can the revenge she has been hoping for be finally within reach?

I rated this K-Drama all 8 stars for the actors, not the writer. The actors/actresses in this K-Drama all seem to be sort of equal through no fault of their own. It was the way the K-drama was written that kind of made it seem like there was 3 equal stories going on at the same time, and I didn't really like that. My favorite actor is Jang Ki-yong who played Park Mo-gun, a 28 year old Game Sound CEO and Director who is in love with a 38 year old career woman working for a Search Engine Company who is pitted against her previous employer who was the #1 Search Engine Company. It was very frustrating to watch Park Morgan get rebuffed so many times that I couldn't stand it anymore, however I kept watching and finally enjoyed Episode 9 when a different backstory appeared and I had tears in my eyes for that. I stuck it out and wasn't 100% satisfied with the way it ended, but it at least I could sleep at night.

Wow the amount of Maserati. Every single member of the cast drives one. We see all the models. I had no idea they are this noisy, there'd be a romantic quiet conversation and then one person gets in the car and drives away making extreme noise and everyone is cool about it lol. I guess noise pollution isn't an issue. I'm sure the sound director didn't appreciate it either.
