This is such a brilliant script, smart and funny...There is a reason why the rating have grown in Korea...
The romance isn't the foundation the story, rather a graceful thread woven through it. It's not a hot and steamy story...No, this is a genuine romance that is found through the leads sincere thoughtfulness for one another and not in the hookup... It is fitting that the progression is slower, they have only known one another 2 months....He is her boss, who is also several years older than her...Between her illness and the company politics, they are growing in a level of appreciation for one another's true selves...(something neither have not experienced much of). They are also changing one another for the better.... Ho Won is growing in her self-confidence with Woo jin's support, and his brash exterior softens not only as he sees her struggles but also as she rises above every challenge.
I adore all of the glances, sweet comments, they way they protect and think about each other... 4 more glorious episodes to go...I hope we see more from this writer in the future...So well done!
I really loved Something About 1% which also had Ha Suk Jin in it, do you guys think I will like this too?
I didn't like Drinking Solo at all but I love Radiant Office...Ha Suk Jin is great, I adore him in this role! This story keeps me engaged the whole time. It is both smart and funny,
The romance aspect is more natural even paced progression, It doesn't carry the whole story like 1%, rather it's woven through the thoughtfulness within the development of the leads relationship. I would totally recommend it, even if it is a little different from 1%
If you like 1% of Something, check out My Secret Romance, different actors but it's by the same director...
Can someone tell me if it has the same sad/open ending as the movie?
No one will know until it airs....Keep in mind the movie was done back in 2013. The manga has had dozens of new installments over the last 4 years and the writer has yet to give the story an ending.
Looking for a light but interesting watch! Would you guys recommend this? :)
Yes it is worth it! It did take me watching 1 and 1/2 of 2 a second time to totally get into the rhythm of the drama, but now it's on my favorites list....It's both smart and funny...and keeps me guessing....Well casted, I especially love watching Woo Jin and Ho Won develop. I am hoping we see more from this script writer in the future.
The Doctor >>>OMO OMO OMO ...I really want to know what is going on in his mind and motivating his actions...He clearly has a master plan but I feel like the writers are only giving us crumbs to go on...what will this mean for Woojin and the trio... This show keeps getting better and better...It always has me thinking....
The writers need to up the romance development. I'm losing interest. If this was a strong office drama (like…
Romance is in the thoughtfulness...I think it's perfectly paced for the context in which the story flows and the nature of the characters and roles they are assigned. There is a true sincerity in the way Woo Jin and Ho Won's relationship is developing, but in a work environment with him being her her boss there has to be some care in how the story is crafted. The romance has been there all along, it may seem subtle but it's realistic and genuine...something I find refreshing...we have 6 episodes left...a lot can happen in the next 3 weeks.
Viki has a channel for it
https://www.viki.com/tv/34532c-the-masked-lover
With over 40 million monthly viewer for one channel and 8 million for the other, someone is interested in what is being produced. The subbing for Viki and DF are reasonably fast. DF's are out before 9pm EST and Viki as soon as the "volunteers" are able to complete them, on average it takes a few hours at most a day. The cost of paying for them covers legal licensing, most other websites pull from the legal pages or uploaded them without the licensing. Those who pay for a subscription are committed to keeping the door of these dramas open, this can only happen when it's done legally.

DF is growing with service to North & South America, the UK, Australia, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey. Viki licenses almost every nation but N. Korea.
When it comes to the translation: I find DF's subbing toned down and simplified. I watch both channels for that reason. I might get the basic clean understanding of what is said on DF but Viki translators tend to give more details and root/cultural meanings....The subbing has a little personality to it at times.
when you've been too invested in a drama and you're watching it just for the sake of finishing it:(
15 dragged...16 was horrible... Watched 17 just to finish it....6 out of 10. Disappointed!
I usually love Lego Li dramas but this one left me with much to desire in the end.
13 provided a space for 14 which I personally really loved..The CEO was able to be her hero, it showed her how loved she was even when she didn't have her power. Though her identity came into question for herself, we see a glimpse that she is more than her strength and capable of finding true happiness.
I am sure people who lose a limb encounter the same questions and challenges.
