Sexual harassment
It is all in the headline. First half of the story is ML sexually Harassing the FL.Most of the C-Dramas with Rich Boss ML are similar, as in harassing the FL with their Power, Authority and Money.
They always try to influence FL life without their permission just because they are rich and powerful.
K-Dramas have good Boss and Employee relationships (98.5% of the K-Dramas, obviously not all of them) Even the remaining 1.5% K-Dramas do not go beyond simple harassment (like Cat and Mouse fights)
At least other C-Dramas are limited in their sexual harassment of FL, this drama is full on Sexual Harassment of FL ( Even when she repeatedly tries to keep distance from ML)
These type of Dramas, even after FL falls for ML, it seems like Stockholm syndrome or Suspension effect - NOT LOVE
C-Dramas need to show respect for the FL characters and their stories.
What is the use of a Talented, beautiful and confident FL, if she is always tripped by the ML for no reason whatsoever.
Why does the ML always have the upper hand (just because he is rich and is boss) ?
ML can be arrogant of his handsomeness, but not too arrogant as to sexual harasses the women.
These type of dramas propagate the idea that anything done by rich and handsome man is OK, when it is NOT
If the things done by ML is done by some poor and not-so-handsome guy, he will be beaten and brought to the police or in the least see him as a pervert.
People argue that ML does not do such things to everyone, just the FL because he loves her. To them I say, if FL does not say it is OK (Out of love & not coercion), it is SEXUAL HAASSMENT especially when she is trying to flee from him.
ML asks FL to be his girlfriend to lend money.(Scumbag)
Hardest 8 episodes to get through, even then not satisfactory

Waste of Talent
I dropped this at episode 7. The storytelling is so jumpy and slow. It's so confusing like there's so many "Why". Such a waste of talent when ML and FL are doing their jobs so well in acting but the story given to them is a crap! The writers doesn’t seem to be sure how they really want to portray the male lead, if he will be a dominating CEO or a dumb one.I watched Eden Zhao in Le Coup de Foudre as second ML and I really wanted to see more of him, didn't expect to be disappointed to see him as main role in this lousy story!
I can’t bear anymore, I will drop this for Begin Again. I hope it has a better storyline than this one!

Romance classique entre cold-CEO & assistante, mais très bien jouée !
Rien de bien nouveau sous le soleil avec cette storyline : un CEO très cold, avec TOC et gros traumas, rencontre une assistante, parfaire workwoman, qui accroche son attention. Il va se rapprocher d'elle et comprendre peu à peu pourquoi elle l'attire.Très classique : lovers avant amnésie :) :)
Je partage l'ironie du commentaire précédent : l'état physique des asiatiques, si on en juge par les dramas, est différent du reste du monde, car certains phénomènes sont d'une fréquence incroyable, tels que les comas, les amnésies, l’endométriose et les états grippaux dès qu'on prend la pluie....
Trêve de sarcasmes, hors de cette storyline trop usée, le drama est agréable, feel-good et très bien incarné par des acteurs talentueux.
A regarder pour se distraire, passer un bon moment (à condition d'être indulgent avec le scriptwriter).

Not as good as WWWSK but better than i expect
There must be some brain issues with many Asians. So many people with amnesia!The couple is cute. The base story is not very interesting. I think they could skip those nonsense amnesia problems and deliver a nice, shorter and warm romantic drama.
Secretary Nie is an amazing woman, beautiful, competent and sweet.
Yan Jing is a kick-ass boss, competent and very demanding.
They like each other, but he forgets her when he surpasses his threshold of love!
They keep fighting their problems. First, he chases her and she runs. Then the opposite… Love boomerang.
Interesting moments with Nie’s parents and Yan’s mother.
Some funny office moments. Nice working partners…
Blablabla…
They have good chemistry.
The second couple is some kind of sweet (Zhao Yuan and Zhen Nian).
The third couple is boring for me (Han Zi and Tong Xin)
Can’t take my thoughts of What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim, a way better drama than this. Here, Yan Jing changes completely in the end and it is strange to see that.
ACTING – I thought that most of the acting was good.
OST / MUSIC – well used in the drama. A couple of good songs.
REWATCH – I have more things to watch and, honestly, I prefer rewatch another time WWWSK. Here, maybe some scenes…
OVERALL – too long, did not enjoy the back and forth of the amnesia. But I enjoy some moments and some stories within the story.

Bem complicado
Precisei respirar fundo várias vezes pra terminar esse drama. O casal é bem legal, mas o excesso de perda de memória foi muito desgastante. Tive a sensação que eu estava reassistindo o drama várias vezes, parece que eu estava presa num looping de perda me memória interminável. Cansativo demais, por isso passei várias cenas, que não acrescentavam em nada pra conseguir terminar.Se não tivesse a segunda (e nada a ver) perda de memória e o tanto de tempo p ele recuperar, o drama seria infinitamente melhor.
Poderia ter sido um clichê mais simples sem amnésias excessivas.
Não é um drama que recomendo, mas assista para tirar suas próprias conclusões.
