Giving this a 9 because there were so many different genres in this show that I was slowly losing my mind but the cast was /perfect/. ***THERE MIGHT BE SPOILERS AHEAD PLEASE BE WARNED***
I mean I could see how writer-nim wanted to connect Bong Soon to the mystery and crime angle in the story but I think it just took so much time and dragged the show a bit because of the seven brides thingy (I was so pissed at the police for always missing the suspect lol). The side characters were ok for me but then some of the screen times were unnecessarily long. Poop jokes were a bit too much but the interactions between Min Hyuk and Secretary Gong will always have a place in my heart!
The cast was just A+. PBY and PHS were just off the roof with their chemistry. PLEASE DATE IRL lol JEBAL MOM AND DAD PLS DATE IRL!!!! The last episode almost killed be because of its cuteness AND YES BECAUSE I AM A SUCKER FOR ROMCOMS. Secretary Gong was one of my favorites tbh! That character was such a living meme lol. Bong Soon's mother was definitely me whenever I see the BongMin couple!
Loved the OST too, I think PD-nim chose the right songs for the right moments. The SFX were great too, the cat/puppy noises, etc. It added flair and cuteness to the show.
I would watch this again though but maybe I'll skip the filler parts and just proceed to my favorite episodes/scenes.

Ep1-9 felt like there's magic into it
10-13 plot starts to struggle
13-16: good with a closure that gives what you wish/dream of.
a kind of drama that is not so perfect but end up to my fav list/love it.
If you're into romcom, love cute/adorable couple like you enjoy dramas that are light hearted then this drama is for you...~ Chemistry is just too real a kind of relationship that you can't see any other guy for her, just him. It's seriously funny/hilarious....XD but there are times you'll be like... Is this even impt?
Story: genre of crime/romcom/thriller didn't work all together in the middle of the story it felt so random it would be better if they focus in just one genre, The flaws and hole into it, there is so many ways to improve it, make it better, that they failed to do so. DESPITE all that you won't think about it, it could make you forget /forgive those shortcoming, for the main couple. Their love story overcomes all those problem, you know their chemistry is just too undeniably strong and so much lovable.
Recommendation
highly recommended to those who have bubbly personality, hopelessly loves romance, loves to fall out of love, wants to meet a sassy male lead, cutie female lead, a good laugh then go watch it. If you wanna watch this drama because of investigation genre, just don't and go somewhere else. This isn't for you if you're too much of a technical person when it comes to watching dramas but if you're someone who based it more in the feels then you'll enjoy and appreciate it~
Character/acting
Minhyuk and Bong Soon is loife!
Characters: there's your fav, someone you'll dislike/like, you'll love/hate, find annoying/funny. Shoutout to Secretary, Bong ki and high-schoolers!~
Park Hyungsik and Park Bo Young shines in this and I hope they'll continue to shine, to see them together in another drama or just date for real. Oooops!!! Kekkeke. I love all the cast and I thank the PD-nim for the supply of bts every week.
The ost is good. Rewatched value is perfect ofc I'm talking about the moments/story of the main couple, I'm gonna miss all of them and I want a version 2 juseyo!!!! Bong Soon and Minhyuk will always have a special place in my heart. My 100th drama! Whooooops! Thankyouuu for the feels.~
ps: the main couple is way too cute to handle, warning; they're addicting. Uggggggh!!!! Anyways hope my review helps!~

Ji Soo
One of the best second lead. If it is not for the love of romantic comedy, you should watch this for Ji Soo, he is fine. While he is stern as you would expect of a police officer, you can feel the warmth behind the feelings he didn't recognize long enough to lose the girl. I can't complain about the other leading actors, they were all good indeed, but I was biased to Ji Soo character from the get go. The one thing that was off for me, was the psycho kidnapper and his scenes with the women he abducted, these were parts in the drama I found mostly disturbing, along with some of the fighting scenes. Again, watch for Ji Soo, you won't regret it, and probably, you would follow his other dramas. I certainly will.Was this review helpful to you?
Girl power rocks...B:
Story is well-thought.The plot has a few problems, the crime part really got dragged but it's not that important to me.
Park Hyung Shik shined in this drama.He is like a princess,really.(Yes, not a prince but princess because he is too beautiful.) If this drama was any longer, I don't think I would be able to handle watching him.
Cuteness is overflowing...^^
And it is way tooo funny till the end.

SWEET SALTY AND SOUR
I watched this drama years ago when it first came out I just didn't make a review so ill make one now. I loved this drama to the point where I watched all 16 episodes every day for a week, the main reason why I loved this drama is the romance and the chemistry between the main leads but as much as I love this drama it is quite cringy and not realistic in the way that she can just lift a whole ass car with like one hand however although this drama is cringe it has its dark side that honestly really scared me( yes I do have anxiety and I am extremely paranoid so bare that in mind when I say this). There is Sa and kidnapping in this drama and those scenes are fucking creepy. I would recommend this drama if you want something sweet but creepy but comedic at the same time.While I make this review I try to be as non basis as possible as the main actress is one of my fav actresses and this drama is extremely nostalgic to me so I will probably feel differently from you but when I first watched this drama I would've 100% rated this a ten but I think as I experience more dramas I have higher expectation anyway uh watch it if you want....

Iconic
This is just a comedy masterpiece, I could not stop laughing. The bromance in this show was so satisfying, I love to see it. I have to admit, I always feel sorry for the second male lead because we can have the second male lead while the female lead can have the main guy. I think that’s the reason we have second male leads just for us😂😂😂😂😂 gosh, what am I saying- but anyways this was and will always be an iconic show!!! If no one has heard of this show, I would be very shocked, like how come you don’t know this!??!!???Was this review helpful to you?
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.Was this review helpful to you?
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.Was this review helpful to you?

Strong Girl Bong-soon
Rating: 8/10Strong Girl Bong-soon is a fun and heartwarming rom-com that shines most in its characters and relationships. Park Bo-young delivers an adorable yet powerful performance as Bong-soon, and the chemistry between the leads is one of the drama’s strongest points. The humor lands well, and the lighter moments make the show very easy to enjoy.
However, the drama loses momentum whenever it focuses heavily on the villain plot. The antagonist is portrayed as a single psychopath, and many of his scenes feel repetitive and drag the pacing. I ended up skipping some parts because they didn’t add much to the overall story. What made this aspect weaker is the lack of a proper backstory. We’re shown his actions, but not the reason behind them, which makes him feel one-dimensional rather than compelling.
I also think the drama would have benefited from either introducing another villain or giving more depth and psychological context to the existing one. That could have made the darker subplot more engaging instead of feeling like filler between the more enjoyable scenes.
Overall, Strong Girl Bong-soon is still very much worth watching for its romance, comedy, and charming leads. The villain storyline may be its weakest point, but it doesn’t completely take away from the drama’s overall appeal.
Rewatch value: High for the rom-com parts, low for the villain arc.

Mostly I love the music and casting!!
This one of my favorite kdrama. I love the chemisty between them and how that Park hyung sik had a crush on her in real life. I love the plot line.! Also, the kissing scene look like he really meant them a lot. Even though, plot was mess, it would still be called one of my favorites. I saw this show like three time lol. If you like this show, you should watch the second season called Strong Nam Soon. Almost the same plot but different. They have little surprise, I am not going to spoil it. ✨✨✨Was this review helpful to you?
