On the Verge of Insanity

On the Verge of Insanity
It follows the story of middle-aged office workers struggling to survive in a turbulent workplace

Misaeng:
It is about employees who fight to get out of the cruel corporate world they feel they've become trapped in.

On the verge of insanity is a business drama, which shows office politics as well as other business areas like acquisitions, team projects, closing of business, human resource department etc. as well as technology perfectly. Hot stove league also focuses on business part well with baseball. The characters are very well developed and consistent in both of them and they have very little to no romance. They are well made I love them both.

Similarities:

2. A variety of ensemble characters with complex interpersonal relationships.
3. Highlights issues in how technology affects daily life.
4. A divorced noona couple with lingering feelings.

But the focus in On the Verge Of Insanity is the actual tech, office politics and departmental infighting that occurs in major corporations as well as a critique of the marginalization of women in STEM careers. Watch OTVOI for a more realistic view of what it's like to to work in the tech industry after the fairy floss girl power version in Search:WWW.

Both series deals with HR departments. While in 'Love Scout' the female lead is a CEO of a search firm, the female lead in 'On the Verge of Insanity' is the head of HR department in a company. The core setting of the story centered around HR departments is similar and would be not that far of a stretch from Love Scout.
