Ma sassy dude does not use his brain a lot I see. He cannot both claim the proposal seems to be written by a relationship…
haha, you took the words right out of my mouth. Not sure about other people's work/project meetings, but calling your workmates losers for their ideas wouldnt go down well at my workplace. That's a good way to turn people against you
I didnt think Pat did too badly actually. A little awkward but it works for the character that he's supposed to…
can't say i noticed any weird mouth movements, does talking count? hahaha. He was fine, nothing odd, i think he was just being expressive. Better than having someone with a wooden facial expression
Take my comments with a grain of salt (because i watched it after an annoying day of work), but i found the junior incredibly irritating. If one of my subordinates acted like that towards me (cornering me and touching me without permission several times) i'd have cracked the s**ts. You can bet i wouldnt have been feeling charmed. But if i watch it with my brain turned off then it's probably pretty cute, just dont try to relate to it reality (it's a drama after all!). I will add, that i'll still keep watching it cos i did enjoy it, even though i got cranky on behalf of the Team leader
Good episode, but i think i second eps was stronger. I enjoyed the scenes with Jeng and Pat, and the character/relationship development between them, but we spent a lot (too much) time with the second couple. Saint is a beautiful man, lovely face, but has the weakest acting of the bunch (in my opinion), so i didnt enjoy his scenes. Sounds like other people are enjoying the second couple though, so power to them :)
Overall enjoying the show, but this eps just had too many flashbacks. They basically recapped the whole show! Maybe wouldnt have been noticeable if the eps were an hour long, but for a ~20min show i jst kept wondering if the plot was going to move along at all, or if it was just going to keep rehashing their past interactions... Still going to keep watching though, cos i like the found family aspect and i'm curious about Yutaka's family dynamics, the brother was such a d**k and the parents were so useless.
I'm quite enjoying this! I like the theme of office culture and generational differences and how values can clash in the workplace. While the unpleasant workmates are a little exaggerated i think that's mostly down to their acting style. I feel like know this workplace and like i've worked there, haha. It also does feel like it's being told from Pat's point of view, that is from a young employee coming in for their first real office job and being horrified by what older workers have gotten used to tolerating. The slightly exagerated acting from the workmates feeds this impression. I also really like that the romance has stalled in eps 2, it would have been totally inappropriate and unrealistic under the circumstances for Pat to continue being dreamy-eyed at his boss who is giving him a bit of a rough time.
Loved it start to finish. Loved the characters and really interesting themes covered and portrayed well by the actors. I thought the side characters, good and bad, were also believeable. Having met ppl like the annoying ex-gf and TH, sadly they are too real. Even Jae Won reconciling with them at the end (which happened too quickly for my liking as i wouldnt have forgiven TH), I put down to JWs generous character which has been consistent throughout the show. In my top 5 KBLs for sure!
So far the pacing in this drama isn't great. Considering that it's a short series they really need to make the most of the time, but they weren't using it effectively to progress the story. I found myself distracted and a little bored sveral times which is unsual for a short eps drama. For example, the song at the start wasn't good/interesting enough to spend so much time on it, and a lot of the conversations between side characters felt a little unnecessary. The acting was OK, not terrible, but i don't find myself interested or emotionally invested in either of the leads. I might give it another eps since they're so short, and maybe it'll pick up. Glad to see some people are enjoying it though!
