Are the leads apart a lot? I just started watching

This started promising, but soon fell to a classic c-drama cliche: the badass ML is suddenly a puppy who never hurt an innocent person. Towards the end the main story was just full of pompous speeches about right and wrong and love, but what kept me going was surprisingly ML's sister's story. I did not care about her at all in the beginning but later was so invested, just anxiously waiting what will happen with her. This one is very hard to rate, some very good aspects/parts and some not to my liking.

Oh, I did not know that. I just googled and it seems like they still recommend 40 eps but can make exceptions based on quality of the content. I hope most will still stay shorter. I don't remember ever seeing a 40 eps drama that I felt was too short. Even if some parts are rushed there are other parts that are dragged out and it has been more a balance problem.

Me too, the only good decision censors have made :D

I watched this before I read the novel and liked it. Then I read the novel and realized, how much better the drama could have been. I will never re-watch but I keep re-reading.

I hope this will not turn into another "General and I" where the leads don't meet for like 20 eps...

Excellent! I've been dropping or putting on hold a lot of dramas lately, but this one kept my interest all the way through.

Thank you! I usually think it's best to watch the original, but for the picture quality I'd rather watch this newer one :)

Which one do you thing had better chemistry, this one or the original Taiwanese one? I can't decide which one to watch.

I postponed watching this because the synopsis made me think FL would be kidnapped for most of the drama and the ML and FL would barely be in a scene together. When I realized my mistake I watched the drama and really enjoyed it.

FL was annoying but otherwise this was a fun watch, if you go in expecting a basic rom-com. ML is a green forest and a heart-warming guy, some side characters are also very refreshing.

So, no romance?

1. Yes
2. Interesting, funny
3. Off the charts
4. Yes but they are not very good

Thanks! Yeah the sister is not very smart... I went in because I felt like watching something fun and light, no matter how many tropes. Let's see if I will enjoy it until the end :)

Stills, if ML agrees to run the company, the sister will lose it. Even if he does not really want it and only does it for his mom.

Did you watch this all the way to the end? Was it okay? Many comments saying it gets worse and worse…

He might not want it, but dad wants him to have it. And he's the "legal" child from his marriage so the sister probably always feels jealous. I'm just on ep 5 too so I don't know if there's something else going on, but this is what I'm thinking now.

Okay then I'm watching :)

Yes it is. I think it originally aired so that the eps were shorter so there were more, but same content.

Of course, I'm just asking for other people's opinions and recommendations to help me decide. But I actually already started this drama and I'm liking it very much so far. There's just something different about Gu Man dramas, I don't know what it is.

Yes, I think Boss & Me is really good! It's more humorous than other Gu Man's adaptations, but not crazy comedy - still also serious and realistic. It has the rich boss and poor employee clichee storyline, but it's handled very differently than in all other dramas, in a much more realistic way. Towards the end there is some more boring storyline. Not bad but so that when I rewatch I usually don't watch all the way through.
