Enjoyed and very funny

I really liked this show, I enjoyed all the characters and I enjoyed the romance between the main couple. The love triangle is nice, both options of men are good and I think they both have good qualities. This is a funny show and I laughed a lot at a bunch of jokes and episodes, I really liked the dynamic between all of the characters. the mystery the show adds too kept me on my toes, I didnt expect the crime part of this show at ALL, and it does it so well. i enjoyed the "bad guy" the most, it was so good and fun to watch and the stakes were just right. I cared about all the characters and would definitely recommend this show for someone wanting a good story with romance as Aish plot as well as a very nicely executed crime Bish plot, but the plots are balanced really well.

MỘT BỘ PHIM THÚ VỊ

Phim hay lắm luôn. Nói chung thì phim thuần về vấn đề giải trí hơn một chút, cũng vui vẻ hài hước lắm nhưng mà vụ án lồng ghép vào trong phim thực sự cũng rất cuốn, xem mà thỉnh thoảng mình hồi hộp lắm luôn. Chemistry của cặp chính ta nói nó thật hơn cả chữ thật, xem mà quắn quéo, họ yêu nhau nhưng người hạnh phúc là mình. Xem phim hơi quạo vì thái độ của mẹ nữ chính với bả nhưng mà không sao sau này bả sẽ hiểu. Nam phụ kiểu mới vào nghề nên diễn sượng trân đơ lắm (giờ chắc ổng ngừng hoạt động nghệ thuật luôn vì scandal cá nhân rồi). Nói chung phim ổn nha.

Personally I loved this drama, usually it's hard to get me to laugh but during this I was laughing every time. It has some very interesting takes showing you things you've probably never seen in a show before which is great especially if you get the kind of gags they are trying to tell. All the characters were v cute and likable especially the love triangle will make you want to tear you hair out on who to ship. Honestly I was debating on actually dating Do Bong Soon myself. The soundtrack is definitely not one to miss and it's the same with just little sound effects they used during the scenes that you probably won't forget. In a whole, it's the best thing I have had the pleasure of viewing this year and I highly recommend it. I hope you'd like it as much I did, peace.

Puppy face with lots of comedy

Its my first ever drama starring Park Bo Young, I am flabbergasted with her acting. My god the the role Do Bong Soon perfectly suits her. This drama is all about her only. The storyline is smooth without any unncessary crossovers.
The makeover of her character is epic. A cute, puppy face girl with msyterious power and her struggle to hide it. I loved this drama. It was very refreshing for me to watch it.

The drama itself is filled with comedy, I mean a lot comedy. You will not regret watching any episode. The support character are hillarious. Espescially the gang members, they will make you laugh all the time. I don't know what to add more this drama is worth watching. Romance is overflowing here with losts of cute moments. Also this drama has dark thriller arc of the kidnapper which makes this more hillarious to watch.

Park Hyung Sik, an amzing role. As a CEO and also as a man who decides to help a women with strange power and ends up falling for her.
Shim Hye Jin(a mother who everyone wants), what a comedic character with open heart.
Kim Won Hae (double role), gives a pure comedy experience.
And lots of lovable character.

You can enjoy this drama as a happy reward. 2-3 episodes during day break. Totally worth it. OST are also good.
A perfect for rewatch in future.

Fun, crazy, over-the-top, cutesy romance, crime, superhero action, girl power story. The show is a mashing together of many different types of stories.The main reason to watch it is that it is the cutest, swoony-est romance that I have seen in a long time -maybe even ever. The couple is so adorable. The 3 main leads are all really good. Ahn Min Hyeok especially is so cute when he is acting all goo goo over Bong Soon and their PDA scenes are really amusing. It's hilarious to watch. The romance is really cutesy but it grows and deepens into something really touching as the story progresses.

Then there is the dark serial killer storyline that is not that different in tone than an episode of SVU. It adds some drama and danger to the main romantic storyline. There is the fun superhero action story aspect where you get to see a girl getting the best of everyone and being the main hero instead of the guys. There is the slapstick gangster storyline which was funny sometimes, but sometimes not so much.

It can be a jarring mashup, but overall it is a fun show if you don't take it too seriously. If you have a low tolerance for a slightly overactive plot, slapstick humor or dark crime you might not like it. But I loved it and looked forward to each episode. It's the funnest most romantic show I've seen in awhile.

"i laughed a lot"

In the beginning, I wasn't really into this drama, but as the episodes progressed, I started to like this drama because the acting of the cast was amazing, all of them were cool, like they were all naturally funny. Moreover, Bok Tae's gang and the school geng, made this drama more funny with their absolutely hilarious behavior. And big respect for Mr. Kim Woon Hae for acting 2 charachter, in my opinion, he is the busiest person in this drama, Awokawok, he is a boti, mummy, and many more. The presence of Mr. Kim makes this drama more exciting. Basically, respect Mr. Kim. Continue to the main cast. Their acting is naturally funny, and the chemistry between the two of them really clicks, making it really fun to watch. and now on to the story
In my opinion, the story is unique because it has romance comedy but it is interspersed with thriller so that the power of the bong bong can be explored more deeply and according to me, the director has a solid finishing in this drama, almost all the scenes seem like there is no use, even though there are scenes that are not useful, they are definitely made. It's funny so you don't get bored, so it's a good job, Mr Director.
Lastly, I just want to let you know that this drama really makes you feel really comfortable with the various unique behavior of the characters and the jokes are not dry so I don't regret watching this drama.
Basically, this is the best drama

It is the kind of drama...

It is the king of drama that if you like it your love it and if you don't you start up give it a D- grade. The story was okay, predictable and sometimes slow but overall it was nice the auirky romance of our leads was awesome the only thing that made you stick through this series was the romance and comedy.

I must say that the thriller was definitely not one of the points to watch the story but the romance made up for that and before you know it boom 5 episodes are just swept away.

One of the best things was that the story never lost its focus from our female lead and had a pretty satisfying end but the villian was a drag it was gripping at the start but towards the end it was unbearable I mostly skipped all the scenes of the villian.

So in conclusion it is a pretty good story you will easily get swept by the leads and just to see them together you will complete the whole series a 100% garuntee

Oh gosh this drama was such a delight to watch, especially during the point of the school year where I feel absolutely no motivation to do any work, ahaha. This drama gave me SO MANY FREAKING FEELS, MADE ME CRY MORE THAN I SHOULD'VE, MADE ME SQUEAL AND SCREAM and it just had everything a great drama should! Our main OTP had great chemistry and all the characters were so unique and made the story so different, whether they were bringing suspense, humour or their handsome looks lol.

I will admit that sometimes it felt like it took way to long for the plot to get somewhere, but I didn't mind to be honest. Unless you're really picky, I don't think you would notice this flaw.

The acting was top-notch and spot on. I don't think Park Bo Young could've done a better job as the protagonist than she already did. I was so satisfied with everyone's performance and their acting capabilities. Sometimes it went so bizarre and crazy but they played it off with their characters really well. I do wish, however, that certain characters would have more development or back story to them, particularly the brother and Gook Du's girlfriend.

The music I CANNOT DESCRIBE HOW CATCHY ALL THE SONGS ARE and the enhanced the scenes so well. I've been listening to the OST on repeat for days and haven't gotten sick of the songs yet, surprisingly.

I'm not one for rematching dramas, but I'll definitely be binge-watching FMVs on YouTube for the next few months or until my withdrawal goes away!

Cute and fun

This series is simpy cute, funny, romantic, and beautifully crafted. It strikes a perfect balance between lighthearted fluff and darker undertones, making it such an enjoyable watch. The quirky characters and hilarious scenes had me laughing throughout, and the ending was truly heartwarming.
I've been rooting for Park Hyung Sik the first time I saw him in The Heirs, and I was thrilled to see him as the lead here. He did not disappoint! From his adorable, cocky charm to his sweet moments, he was incredible. By episode 14, he took his performance to a whole new level—every line, every expression was spot on. I love him in everything, and that smile? Irresistible.

Park Bo Young was a revelation for me, as this was the first time I saw her in action. She brought her character to life effortlessly, nailing every scene, especially her stellar performance in episode 14. And Jang Mi Kwan as the psycho killer? Chillingly brilliant.

The soundtrack was just as beautiful, adding so much depth and I must say it's almost always on-time to nail the cute or romantic mood. Overall, this is a sweet, funny, and incredibly well-balanced romcom that you’ll absolutely love—especially if you’re into romantic comedies. And, of course, Park Hyung Sik looks amazing in every scene!

Ok, so perfect 10? Probably wondering why. I'm a sap for sweet romance, and this drama has it.

It's hilarious, the heroine is adorable and loveable.

I enjoyed every element of this drama. The cast had great chemistry and some of the moments had me laughing so hard I cried. The scenes were written beautifully. The crime element of the story was intriguing, and I felt like it left something for everyone who wasn't just interesting in the love story to enjoy about the drama.

The music in this drama is amazing as well, and whenever I hear it, it puts a smile on my face.

Strong Women Do Bong Soon is a pretty fantastic drama, there's not much I would change about it.

Initially I was worried based off the cover that the 'love triangle' aspect would be overwhelming (as it tends to be), but I was happily surprised that it was well done, and I didn't feel annoyed by it as I usually do when they spend 14 episodes dragging the main girl back and forth between two guys.

There are tons of memorable scenes in this drama, and all of her action scenes showing off her powers were hilarious and empowering.

Overall, I gave this a 10 because after finishing this drama I felt like a 10. I will definitely be watching more stuff from these actors, they are absolutely amazing.

I'm sure you've already read other reviews, but I do 100% recommend this drama to everyone, not just people looking for romance, It truly has it all.
