Ladymeow2020

I started watching this drama some time in 2020, put it on hold, and restart in 2021 but still cannot get into the drama so I put it on hold again. Now in February 2022, I restart watching and pushed through the 1st 10 episodes (which I found to be uninteresting because I cannot stand the FL). However, after 11th episodes, I found the drama to be really interesting & entertaining. I really liked the ML and his cunning and tricks to get out of every troublesome situations. The side characters also added to the fun of the drama. Now I am on 23rd episode and I am hooked.

Thank you for a well written article. I agree that some of the Kdramas mentioned needed a Season 2. My best pick for Season 2 will be Korean Odyssey (will the Monkey King find his lost love's soul in hell?), Hotel del Luna (the epilogue of the new owner is the bomb!), Crash Landing on You (I want to see their babies!), Signal (the mystery continue), and What happened to Secretary Kim (I want to see their married life...LOL). That's it from me. :))

Meee tooo. :))

I have watched up to 3-4 episodes, and I agree with you that this Jeremy Tsui is mesmerising to watch, especially his deep voice and calm demeanour. This is my first time watching him, and I am already drawn to him in the first episode...LOL. I also like the FL - she is smart, sharp and proactive. I hope the writers don't mess up this FL later on.
I am looking for a good drama to watch, and so far I am loving this one; plus the OSTs are really nice. Keeping my fingers cross to make sure that the drama will stay good until the end... :))

I checked WeTV and they don't have English subtitles. And I noticed that every episode is really short - only 6 minutes! Hmm... many I will watch when there are English subtitles and all the episodes are done. Can do a marathon viewing.

This was my 1st impression when I read the synopsis, plus it has 24 episodes as well. Maybe I will give it a try

I am not sure if Squid Game Season 2 will be as good as the Season 1, especially when there was so much hype for the 1st season and expectations will be super high for Season 2. Based on past historical film experiences, usually sequels can be disappointments. But let's see...
As for me, I will not have high expectations because majority of the interesting characters are dead and I don't expect the anti-hero/ML (Lee Jung Jae) to dismantle the Games since it has been going on for decades and may involved many dubious, sick & perverted but wealthy, prominent & powerful people. It is unrealistic to expect that. Anyways, let's see what new surprises the SG writer & director Hwang Dong Hyuk will bring in Season 2.

What a strange, funny yet heartwarming and educational movie. This shows how people with many mental problems coped with the harsh reality around them, and yet managed to survive despite all overwhelming odds.

Maybe he didn't care because he wanted to die in the first place. If I were him, I would do the same .... LOL... anyway, it was a wonderful movie. :))

I am re-watching this drama again in January 2022, and I saw more details of the story about Ken and his adventures during the Warring States. I really love this drama and I wish they make Season 3. So many questions left unanswered... or perhaps that is how the writers and producers want this story to be?? LOL....

You are right. I have not watched any Push drama before, and I wonder if he is a good actor.

Such sad news to hear someone young and full of life, suddenly passed away. Rest in Peace, pretty lady.

Ohh! OMG... you are the 1st that responded to my review... I was told and scolded that I should have waited for more episodes before I commented... But Please, just go ahead and watch the Thai drama version, and then compare them against the original Chinese version...

Is it just me, or I just hate the FL & SFL. I can't stand how bitchy and mean the FL and SFL are in this drama. They are supposed to be strong, intelligent and independent working women but they are shown as bitchy, petty, short-tempered and indecisive females in these modern times. The way the FL treated the ML is downright terrible and very rude. There are many ways to show your disapproval and non-cooperation but her methods are just crude, unprofessional, childish and inhumane .... OK, I have finished venting for my poor lovely patient ML and SML.

So far I am not impressed with this Boss & me Thai version. The FL is not convincing or cute as the Chinese drama version, and the ML is not as bossy and arrogant; although Push is handsome, he does not have the charisma of a successful boss or company CEO. Perhaps Mark Prin could have been better.... hahaha...
I felt like the Thai version rushed the story through instead of building up the plots together. They didn't write good enough background story for the viewers to understand and endear themselves to the ML & FL.
For example, there are no memorable scenes that show how the ML fell in love with the FL, that is, in Chinese version, ML has been secretly watching FL eating her lunches on his private office balcony for many days and saw her pure, bright, candid and happy personality. The ML started having his lunches at same time as the FL, even rushing from meetings, so that he felt like he is not eating his lunches alone. It's these small moments/scenes that makes the drama cute and memorable.
This Thai version shows FL eating and sharing her packed lunches with her friends/colleagues. And she only got 2 packed lunches, instead of the one month packed lunches as per Chinese version. There is no interesting scenes that makes me want to stay and watch.
Also this Thai version introduced the villain-evil FL too early (in 2nd episode) and she turned out to be such a bitchy & unfriendly person, as compared to the Chinese version. This has become just another typical Thai lakorn, not an adaptation of the Chinese drama Boss & Me...LOLz.
Plus, the FL's best friend (the one who depended on her rich & terrible fiance) love story changed - looks like she will end up with the ML's best friend. I guess this is a good change.
Anyway, I have watched up to 6 episodes (without subtitles but easily understandable) and I became bored already. I am not sure how they will fill up 40 episodes. Maybe Thai version wanted their own touches in the story but so far, the drama is not impressive or entertaining.
This Thai version is not it for me - I will not watch this after all. What a pity because I was looking forward to this Thai drama.

This Thai version has 40 episodes?? The Chinese version only has 34 episodes and it was dragging towards the end. How will the Thai version fill out the extra episodes? I am already bored by the 3rd episodes....LOL

I have not seen DOTS full drama but I have seen few video clips. Based on what I saw, I don't like SHK or her acting. I watched a few minutes of Encounter, and I still don't like her. Something about her RBF (resting-bitch-face) and her acting are a turn-off for me...LOL... So I am skipping this new drama of hers. :))

OMG. I was visiting my mom and I saw this drama was shown on the local cable TV and it was dubbed into the local language. I noted the drama looked quite old & I was right. The few episodes I saw was quite interesting but the poor dubbing really spoiled the watching experience...LOL...

I dont have amazon prime

This Mr. Queen drama should be on Netflix. It deserves all the attention and love from international viewers as well, just equally like Squid Game, and other Korean drama series that are now on Netflix. I hope in the future Netflix will buy the licenses to show all of Mr. Queen drama series.
