The most untypical kdrama that I have watched thus far!! So realistic and adult like and I mean they even show people smoking!!! (We all know a good percentage of Koreans are smokers and its usually never shown in dramas) This drama had very adult problems and adult solutions. Some parts of the story line, unless you've lived it, I think would probably be a bit confusing as to why certain characters do certain things. Great drama though! I breezed through all 16 episodes and am really bummed that it is over. If you liked the male lead in Lucky Romance, you will enjoy this male lead as well. You become so invested in the characters and their story lines and really feel for what they are going through because it is all so relatable. It has one of the most bada** female characters that I have seen. Really so enjoyable and like everyone says a breath of fresh air to watch.

Let me start off by saying I was really superficial watching the first episode and almost dropped it because I didn't think the lead guy was that attractive. So ridiculous!!! This guy turned out to be one of my faves!! His dorky/nerdiness is so endearing and I was so attracted to how all in he went with his feelings. It was sexy to see how confident he turned out with knowing she just needed to catch up to where he was at in their relationship and was willing to wait for however long. This couple is pretty cute and even the secondary couple was cute as well. Pretty light and fluffy nothing too dramatic or super evil characters. Maybe a bit of petty jealousy but nothing too annoying. I like how you see her growth and trust in herself and those around her, where she eventually does grow out of all the luck stuff. Would def give this a chance, don't be like me and judge a book by its cover!

First of all I DESPISE love triangles soooo much! Of course that's part of the M.O. of all Korean dramas (with the exception of maybe a handful). So imagine my surprise that I was able to put up with ALL of the love triangles in this drama. There were multiple love triangles and not just love interests, but family and even between friendships. I think the honesty the characters had with each other was what kept me moving forward watching this. This was actually a really good and interesting story and the actors did a really good job. I really enjoy Gong Hyo Jin, she is one of my favorite actors to watch and usually I enjoy everything she does. This was great to watch, not really fluff fluff, but not too heavy on the heart. Def recommend this when you are wanting to watch something a little unconventional.

This drama was so funny and light! Nothing too majorly serious happened but it was a story about finding that one person who can move your heart and accepts you for who you are. I enjoyed that when they did finally decide to be together they didn't waiver from their relationship. I liked how he never gave up on his love for her and no matter what he was not giving her up for anything. The main couple was really endearing and I think that's why I gave this such a high rating, I really like them together. Gong Hyo Jin is turning out to be one of my favorite actresses and if she's in it I am willing to give it a shot. (Except maybe It's ok, that's love, I'm sorry I could not get through the first episode, it seemed all over the place! Will maybe try giving that one another shot at a different date)

I think that this drama was one of the most well-rounded ones I have watched. I feel like I flew through the episodes. I was watching the first episode and then it's like I finished the drama. It just went by so fast because it just felt so enjoyable watching every single episode. This is not a drama with like murder or somebody trying to kill somebody, it does have quintessential love triangle and also somebody who's trying to backstab somebody else. Really you watch it for the characters and their stories and you become involved in their Triumph and their defeat, and you root for them and hope they make it in their life. I read somebody else's comment I think about how the writers were a little bit of trolls in this drama, and I couldn't agree more LOL. They were trolls in the best possible way. This drama really made me laugh it made me cry sometimes but really was just super enjoyable to watch and I really recommend you taking like a day or 2 days to binge watch it all if possible because this was just a joy to watch. The couple would just keep me smiling their relationship with each other was just so much fun to watch and just made me so happy LOL I was sad that it ended. I definitely recommend you taking the time to watch this great drama.

FLUFF BREAK I NEEDED!

To be honest, I am currently watching Thirty-nine, but I needed an emotional break lol. I probably have a few episodes left but it's just a heavy and emotionally draining drama. I needed something frivolous to watch and that's exactly what I got with A Business Proposal. It was funny, cute and no really annoying love triangle. Even the secondary couple was super cute with their story. I liked how people made up their mind and stuck by their decisions instead of all this angsty wavering. If you are looking for something reliably cheery and non-threatening, or if you need a fluff break from an intense drama, give it a go. With 12 episodes you can breeze by in 2 days and still manage a reasonable amount of sleep! :)

Pretty good for a Japanese drama

I will say for a j-drama I'm giving this a pretty high rating. Japanese dramas are hit or miss, and this one was actually pretty good overall. I thought the acting was pretty good for a j-drama. Enjoyed it and it's a super quick watch.

I know a lot of people didn't like the male lead but honestly his acting was pretty good if everyone also wanted to punch him lol. I will say the female lead was so great in this! It was great to see her work so hard to get as far as she did. Made me want to take up boxing. She's the reason why I'm giving this an 8.5.

I say if you want something quirky and quick to watch, give it a shot. Was definitely worth it in the end!

The best part about this were the characters, the female lead grew on me and the male lead, well I was crushing hard the entire time. Unfortunately the story seemed very inconsistent and left a lot of things out or just didn't mention it. Like I'm still wondering what happened to her Dad., they never even talk about it, I'm going off assumptions of what I think happened to him. The ending just seemed to leave a lot of loose strings and it felt very unsatisfactory. I read somewhere it was an artistic decision on how it ended but I just didn't vibe with it. It was funnier than what I had originally thought it would be. I finished it pretty quickly, it does have 32 eps but they are less than an hour long. So really you are watching about 16 full episodes technically. If you want something to pass the time and like unorthodox male leads I would give this a shot!

I did not fly through this drama. I kind of took my time and watched it when I could, it was a good story overall. I think some part of it just frustrated me to no end. It was the whole story line with the best friend and no matter what she did it was like she was never punished or she never took responsibility for how horrible her actions were. I think her character just frustrated and angered me and I really wanted to see her suffer LOL. I guess I was just being petty about that character and her storyline. But I kind of feel like all the adults who did bad stuff did not really face any consequences in this drama. So it's okay to watch but please keep in mind some of the situations are very frustrating and they don't get taken care of in a way that is satisfactory, at least to me. The main characters are really cute together, although there is a little bit of second lead syndrome.

I think it this drama is classified wrong. This is not as much a romantic comedy as it is more of a melodrama. I say that because the story actually revolves around a mystery about a stalker like through almost all of the episodes. I think that storyline kind of brought the series down a little bit, just because I feel like it dragged on way longer than it should have. For some reason the characters could not figure out who it was, if they would just have communicated with each other it would have gotten solved a lot faster. I feel like that storyline was just a waste and I could have done with just having the romantic comedy aspect, and really just following the growth of the main character's relationship. I like to watch the hate to love relationships and this was right up my alley and I think that is why I stuck with the drama and I completed watching all the episodes. So I would recommend this if you have patience LOL the main characters are really fun to watch together and they are such a cute couple and there chemistry is pretty funny and endearing.

This drama is so funny! The main couple had amazing chemistry with each other and with "the kids" as well. It was funny and heartwarming and at times heartbreaking. I am crushing on So Ji Sub so I'm a little biased as to how much I like the characters he plays. I definitely enjoyed the character of Kang Joo Eun. I thought she was a strong female lead and not wishy washy about her past love. I like how she accepted things that happen and wouldn't dwell on it but move on. I dislike love triangles and Kdramas are filled with them! Lol I can't escape them but I'm learning to accept them as they are and appreciate the characters who don't waiver from their path. Being someone who is kinda chubby too but what Korean definition probably refers to as "fat" (lol) I didn't take too much offense with how much this drama centered on looks. I feel like Kim Yeong Ho / John Kim really just wanted her to not have any health issues, so that was his main concern. Would def recommend if you like romantic comedies.
