literally perfect
this was so so good it makes me Sick.. so well written and carefully produced. everything about this drama was so amazing; the cast and their chemistry, the plot, side characters ohh my god. i thought towards the end, everything would be insanely rushed, but they did a wonderful job in wrapping up everyone's story.Would definitely recommend, it was super refreshing to see such a well thought out drama. + would also love to see the others together again, everyone was so cute together.

FLOW TO SLOW
I already feel bored watch this drama at episode 1, but i forced myself to continue because of the positive reviews from this drama. But after episode 3, i cant take it anymore...I dont like the filler story of them become scouter for another company. its different vibe from detective drama, doesnt have interesting plot linealso, i already annoyed with FL since episode 2 by how stubborn she is. A selfish busy woman and always want perfect thing.
Im sorry that i dropped this.

I am hooked captain! But…
The first two episodes were really entertaining to watch.The cast is great and the acting is really good. The music is nice. The cinematography is great, I love the shots and the coloring. The storyline is really interesting and I hope they keep up with it.Now what is my “but”. I am not a big fan of the female lead. I kinda find her irritating and I think it’s a good thing! Because she feels human and I want to know why she act that way, I want to know if she always been like that etc… In other words I want to give her a chance.
The male lead is great honestly I don’t have a lot to say about him that could be objective because I am in love with this man. A loving father? Yes, that’s all I needed.
I’m praying so we don’t have a stupid love triangle (I hate love triangle) and I hope we take the romance slowly. I don’t like when romance is rushed and I’m scared that they will do that.
I think I said everything I wanted. So do I recommend it? Yes I do!

Uncomplicated love story... with an amazing soundtrack! Should you watch now, skip or watch later?
"Love Scout" offers a refreshing take on romance by intertwining the complexities of the headhunting industry with an evolving love story. While the depiction of recruitment may not entirely reflect real-world headhunting practices, the drama presents an idealized version—one that emphasizes professionalism, candidate scrutiny, and ethical leadership. For those with corporate experience, this approach feels satisfying, even if it strays from reality.With four episodes in, "Love Scout" has established a promising foundation. The exploration of character flaws and the potential for personal and professional redemption keeps the audience invested. It will be intriguing to see how the remaining episodes unravel the complexities of these characters and their intertwined lives.
Update:
The 7th episode offers a refreshing portrayal of blossoming feelings. The Female Lead (FL) gradually develops feelings for the Male Lead (ML) at a slow and steady pace. Her awareness of these growing emotions is evident, yet she struggles to embrace them, seemingly feeling undeserving of such affection.
The paper cut serves as a metaphor for the pain of separation. Just as the cut stings, the ML felt the growing distance between them. Her subtle expressions of kindness, such as her smiles when assisting him, and her unwavering honesty, revealed the true depth of their emotional connection
By episode 8, the romance shifts into awkward yet humorous territory, bringing lighthearted moments to balance the emotional weight of the story.
However, episodes 11 and 12 feel somewhat rushed, as if condensing too many resolutions into a short span. While a full 16-episode run might have risked dragging the plot, an extra episode or two could have given the ending more breathing room.
The sound track is awesome!
You should watch now!

IT IS A MUST WATCH
If you're wondering if it this show is as good as people say, this is the sign. I love this show very much from the time I saw the cast and the trailer, and trust me it's worth your time.The slow burn romance is very exciting and the cast fit in together greatly. You can feel the chemistry from the lead actors from the moment they meet and you get a heart fluttering moment every time they are on screen together.
The story is also very unique. I don't think I've ever seen a plot like this from all the shows I've watched. I totally recommend it to anyone looking for something new and fresh to watch.

99.5% scouting. 0.5% love.
Since I consider myself a completionist, I find it very hard to drop dramas, but sadly I had to drop this one.This drama at least based on the two episodes I watched before dropping it seems to primarily focus on the scouting aspect of the show with some romance thrown in between and isn't a romance drama with the scouting work setting. I was zero percent interested in the hiring/scouting aspect of the show and was interested in the romance part which isn't the dominant aspect of the show. The chemistry between the characters isn't great.. it feels very.. scripted.

Currently Watching KDrama
Starting to watch this drama because of Han JiMin Eonni, and somehow I hooked with ths story so far till episode 2. Love the male lead (I never watch her projecy before, apologize befor hand) as a single father who fight and trying his best for her daughter. And then BOOM! He become a secretary, yes! A Man Secretary for Female CEO which is uncommon in KDrama Land who's going to entangled by romance in the upcoming episodes.Han JiMin-ssi here plays as a headhunter CEO who seems like stiff and good at her job yet she is clumsy and has a sensitive spot where she left by her father due to condition at that time. And here the male lead gonna be able to soften her.
I hope there won't be any mislead or whatever again for this drama. I'm still disappointed by WTPR.

Tranche de vie réaliste, romance mature et réconfortante…
Love Scout ressemble à un tranche de vie quelconque. Pourtant, grâce à son scénario fluide, ses personnages développés et bien interprétés, ainsi que sa romance mature, il en ressort une histoire rafraîchissante avec une touche de réalisme portée par un couple charmant.Kang Ji Yun (Han Ji Min) ne ressemble en rien à la PDG froide, insensible et sans expression, presque cruelle, que les scénaristes aiment nous servir. A la place, c'est une femme inspirante et aspirante qui avance dans un secteur particulièrement compétitif. Son travail, elle le maîtrise. En revanche, lorsqu'il s'agit de prendre soin d'elle ou d'accorder une attention aux autres, c'est une autre paire de manches. Elle ne vit que pour son travail, espérant que celui-ci pourra apaiser la douleur qui la ronge depuis toutes ces années. La voir évoluer et faire le deuil de son passé a été un moment incroyable. Elle méritait d'enfin faire la paix avec elle-même. Han Ji Min a offert un personnage parfaitement équilibré.
Yoo Eun Ho (Lee Jun Hyuk) est un père célibataire efficace dans son travail. C'est un homme sincèrement gentil et d'une grande affection pour sa fille, Yoo Byeol. Cette dernière passe avant tout le reste, et c'est un trait qui rend Yoo Eun Ho que plus attendrissant. Ses débuts en tant qu'assistant vont le mettre à l'épreuve. Cependant, il s'adapte et prend le train en marche. Il en profite même pour amener de la nouveauté, permettant ainsi d'améliorer les conditions de travail de chacun, tout en décuplant l'efficacité de chacun. Lee Jun Hyuk a été fantastique en tant que père dévoué, mais aussi en tant qu'homme voleur de cœur.
Leur relation n'a cessé d'évoluer dès leur première rencontre. Leur histoire connaît quelques scènes marquantes. Kang Ji Yun qui se tient droite devant lui sans sourciller et qu'elle reconnaît qu'il lui plaît et qu'il affecte son travail ? Bon sang ! Mais oui. J'ai adoré voir cette femme assumer si fièrement ses sentiments sans essayer de jouer la carte de la minauderie ou autre cliché ennuyeux habituel.
C'est une romance qui sonne réelle parce qu'on croit aux sentiments qu'ils dégagent. Pour moi, c'est ce petit détail qui rend les tranches de vie si particuliers. Ce réalisme qu'on aime fuir, mais qu'on aime retrouver aussi. Tout est centré sur les personnages, car ils sont l'intrigue et non l'inverse. La partie professionnelle prend autant de place que le reste parce qu'elle leur permet d'avancer. Le tranche de vie, c'est un morceau de vie d'un quotidien quelconque et, pour cette raison, ils sont si précieux lorsqu'ils sont bien réalisés.
L'histoire est fluide. Les malentendus sont résolus dans un temps imparti honnête et de façon intelligente. Les clichés habituels sont balayés au profit d'une narration simple, sans crises de larmes ou de scènes absurdes. Certes, le lien d'enfance est présent, toutefois, sa mise en scène est agréable. D'autant plus que FL ne l'utilise pas pour déverser toute sa haine ou sa rancœur sur ML. Encore une fois, le réalisme et l'intelligence ont porté ce drame.
Le format de 12 épisodes était parfait. Le rythme était excellent avec une bonne répartition entre le travail, la vie de famille et la romance. Ma seule interrogation reste le titre. Un mystère.
En bref, Love Scout est un tranche de vie avec des personnages ordinaires, mais sincères, le tout avec un couple mature et réconfortant, partageant une belle alchimie.

ainda em andamento.
estou amando a experiência de acompanhar os dois, ambos são muito divertidos e complexos de formas diferentes.ainda acredito que tenham algo que os uniu no passado, só ainda não revelado como foi.
estou adorando acompanhar a "queima lenta" dos dois e como cada um reage aos momentos juntos.
queria muito que não demorasse a semana toda para vê-los mas fico contente quando finalmente chegam as sextas e sábados.
espero me surpreender de uma forma positiva com o drama!!

QUERO DESVER ESSE DORAMA
Quero desver só pra pode assistir de novo. Que Dorama leve, delicioso e cheio de aprendizado. A trilha sonora é maravilhosa, as histórias paralelas são mto boas. Casal? incrível. História? Maravilhosa. Não é corrido demais e nem enrola dms, é simplesmente na medida certa. Por ter 12 eps, nem tudo é duuuuper desenvolvido, mas ainda assim não falta nada. A Byol é a coisa mais fofa do mundo e a relação dela com o pai e depois com a Jiyun deixa tudo mil vezes mais gostoso de assistir. SÓ VEJAM!!!!!!Was this review helpful to you?
Una serie che regala una prospettiva diversa dal solito ma che emoziona solo fino a un certo punto.
Sarò sincera, l’inizio mi aveva convinta poco. Benchè mi piacesse l’idea di un padre single quale protagonista, la caratterizzazione dei due personaggi principali non mi rassicurava: lei non era solo fredda e distaccata, tutta lavoro ed empatia zero, ma risultava proprio antipatica. Lui, pur apprezzandone la determinazione nell’essere in primis un bravo papà a costo di mettere in stand-by la carriera professionale, mi risultava davvero insipido e piatto.Una volta diventato suo assistente, già mi figuravo uno zerbino a tutto spiano. E invece, a quel punto, una svolta: lei non si trasforma in un concentrato di simpatia, ma diventa più tollerabile mentre lui, nonostante il ruolo da sottoposto, emerge come un vero e proprio punto di riferimento. Equilibrato, determinato ma non in modo arrogante, forte di una sicurezza che non punta ad apparire, bensì ad “esserci” e che deriva ovviamente dall’aver allevato da solo una figlia.
Mentre Kang Ji Yun inizia a mostrare a lui e allo spettatore un lato più fragile e insicuro di sé, Eun Ho diventa sempre più la sua colonna portante. Anche la relazione – nata per caso – con la figlia di lui evolve nella giusta direzione. Ji Yun comprende quanto vuota e fredda sia stata la sua vita prima dell’entrata in scena dei Eun Ho e Byeol, Eun Ho si concede di desiderare qualcosa per sé che vada oltre all’essere orgogliosamente padre, aspetto che sembra essere colto anche dalla figlia, che non fa ostruzione alla coppia ma, anzi, l’accoglie con serenità.
Avrei forse evitato la coincidenza che lega Eun Ho, il defunto padre di lei e la stessa Ji Yun: sa tanto di classico clichè dei drama asiatici, che promuovono spesso collegamenti risalenti all’infanzia. Posso però capire che, senza questo spunto, sarebbe stato poco credibile che – tutto ad un tratto – Ji Yun potesse superare il blocco legato alla traumatica perdita del padre che l’ha poi condizionata per tutta la vita. Finale prevedibile, ma giusto e credibile per la storia portata avanti.
Secondo pairing non particolarmente degno di nota e i cattivi della serie non sono dei cattivi di tutto rispetto (ci sono drama in cui anche l’antagonista sa farsi apprezzare nella sua veste da cattivo, ma non è proprio questo il caso).
Nonostante riconosca a questo drama un approccio un po’ diverso dal solito, un’attenzione verso il valore dei rapporti e delle relazioni che vanno ben oltre la singola coppia protagonista… Mi ritrovo a dare, pur con relativo dispiacere, una valutazione semplicemente buona. Questo perché dal punto di vista del coinvolgimento si è rivelata una serie piuttosto carente: l’ho trovata concettualmente bella ma non è riuscita a emozionarmi…non mi sono commossa, non mi ha fatto sorridere.
Resta comunque una buona serie, ben fatta ma – per quel che mi riguarda - non molto appassionante.
