their chemistry is peak but anything else? this show is a mess.from the optics to the content to the writing, to the misunderstanding of what makes a person, particularly a woman, actually strong, a misunderstanding of rape and sex and non-heterosexuality (so it was homophobic), to the weird 'hahah abuse' plotline which they retroactively tried to save when people (koreans obviously! sexism/misogyny isn't some solely elsewhere problem so it's not "culture") got pissed IRL. that completely diminished the drama (along with the stupid homophobia) and its theme of "strong" women by having the wife be abusive to her husband. it's actually embarrassing how stupid you have to be to believe that that in any way evens the playing field between men and women.
it was a MESS. also ji soo is terrible in this just terrible but. you know. fuck him in general.
that being saiddddd, min hyuk is like an ultimate boyfriend and his love for bong-soon is the real draw of the drama. he's actually the best character which is a shame since it's about women...so they say. unfortunately none of these women have ties to other women as much as they should have which...whatever. i don't think it's worth it to slog through everything just for the chemistry. at all. watch cuts on youtube.
what a mess. they're both hot but that'sssssss not enough imo. it's a good time waster and again they're both hot (or "hot") and really cute together at least ? LOL

She's hella cute, hella quirky and such a good actress! I loved her in Oh My Ghostess so I thought I'd give this one a try
Story: FIRE. Shit was boomin from 1st episode. A strong (literally) female lead that gives no f*cks when it comes to people trying to harm her. She's definitely one of the best female leads I've seen. It definitely is a good thriller. Not the best but it's definitely up there.
The chemistry was dope, top notch! (although I did like her chemistry with Jo Jung Suk in Oh My Ghostess better, it was still close to that level with Park Hyung Shik)
Acting/Cast: Obviously dope. as. f*ck. Everyone did a great job, a phenomenal job really. Even the comedic relief characters did great
Music was so good! I'm a MAMAMOO fan so the OST is up there with one of the best for me.
Overall: if you're looking to watch a fun, yet intense thriller with a STRONG, seriously STROOOONG female lead, you're gonna love this one! Give it a try!

I loved the love triangle, and all of the leads had great personalities, and fit very well in the story.

I like Park Bo young's acting in this and her previous dramas as well. The others also acted well. The comedy is good. The villian is also good and clever.
This drama shud have been edited to 10 episodes and remove the unnecessary shit out of it. Then it wud have been a very good drama if not amazing. It doesn't deserve a 8.8 rating in MDL in my view. The comedy track with the thugs was useful and funny at first but it deviates from plot towards 2nd half and forms its own drama which the director placed the scenes when the original drama got intense . It's just there not helping the plot or anything.
The Mc has been acting like a teenager with love track. I mean its given he had dated several women but act like a high schooler like his first woman crush. I get it with Fmc becoz she had one crush and didn't date. But with Mc its not acceptable as he wasn't a high schooler or this is a high school drama. The Mc looks too happy for everything.
Finally what i want to say is although it has flaws which are easily noticible it's a good drama worth of 8 / 10.

BORING....
BOOOORING
Unfortunately I don't think this drama deserves much praise.
I think it's overrated, I didn't like the main character Boo, I don't know what.
To me she was more of a "bully" than a superhero.
The love triangle doesn't work for me.
I found the story very boring, wanting to mix several genres and it was not good until I watched it.
I really tried to love like most, but for me it's one of the worst in terms of story and character development.

Story 9/10
I enjoyed the fun plot of this whole drama. Most people would say that the story for this was all over the place, i didnt think so. I think it had the right amount of humor, romance, and suspense. I can understand why one might not like this. But I think the suspense and comedy balanced each other out perfectly in this.
Acting/Cast 10/10
The best part of this drama was the cast. Everyone was just so much fun. I loved that I didnt get bored with anyone's character. Everyone had a role. Lets start with Strong Woman Do Bong Soon herself, Park Bo Young. The role Bong Soon was made with her in mind. Her crying scenes might be annoying at parts but overall she was perfect! Park Hyung Shin as MinMin was the best. He was so adorable. His reactions were just wonderful. I loved how he accepted Bong Soon for who she was. Ji Soo, I dont even need to say much. He was a great second lead. Unfortunately I just didnt feel his chemistry with Park Bo Young, which was good. I wasnt a victim of the second lead syndrome in this one lol. Finally Jang Mi Kwan as the best villain ever. He gave me the chills every time he was on screen. I will be looking out for more of his work in the future.
Music 9/10
THe music was on point and really enhanced the watching experience. Great OST overall. My favorite is Super Power Girl just because it describes Bong Soon so well haha...
Rewatch Value 9/10
Why not? It is a lighthearted drama. If I am feeling down it is perfect...

It's a wonderful story about 2 people falling in love, how they develop feelings and trust among each other. I couldn't help but smile every time the leads were shown together, their chemistry is out of this world. The other actors did a spectacular job as well, none of the side characters were left out, since they got enough screen time to display their own unique roles.
If you're into very sweet and cute romance stories, you'll definitely enjoy this one like a delicious dessert. It's worth all of the hype so go watch it ASAP!

This drama is by no means perfect. There are a few plot holes, and the drama has the tendency to focus too much on secondary characters. Even with these shortcoming, the romance in this drama makes up for it.
This drama is truly fresh and new. Featuring a peanut size King Kong as the lead protagonist. Park Bo Young will steal into your heart. Park Hyung Shik's performance as a snarky chaebol keeps delivering the SASS. His love and obsession with the surprisingly strong protagonist will keep you grinning from ear to ear. What are you waiting for?! Go Watch It!

- story can be better, but the character relationship and actors amazing work and chemistry won me over 200%!
- made me happy!
- Satisfying ending!
- More girls should watch this and more guys should learn from Min Hyuk
I did wish they further explored the woman's equality issues but Min hyuk truly showed how you should treat a woman. True men are secure and appreciate a strong woman. Not pressuring but treat her and each other with respect.
BONG BONG x MIN MIM FOREVER!
