WHAT THE PERFECTION!
If chaotic humor is your thing—this drama is for you!
A dopamine rush of wild, unserious fun that’ll make “WHAT THE” your new catchphrase. Sometimes, you just need a show that lifts your mood and gives you endless rewatch-worthy moments. If slapstick comedy isn’t your thing, you might hesitate—but trust me, I did too. Then "Trauma Code" and "Study Group" changed my mind. And with Lee Jun Young leading the cast, skipping this was never an option! Let’s dive in:
➥ Story
Set in a gym, this drama hilariously tackles deep-topics of beauty standards, body-shaming, and how weight struggles seep into various aspects of daily life. The main leads are flawed initially with biased outlook on certain things but grow over time, realizing that workouts won’t fix everything—but they give you the confidence to face challenges head-on. I loved how even the side characters had meaningful arcs instead of being mere background fillers.
➥ Comedy
Unhinged. Over-the-top. Pure gold. Just when you're about to get serious—BAM!—something ridiculous happens, and you're in stitches. If you thrive on chaotic humor, this is a gem.
➥ Romance
The English title might be slightly off you—romance is subplot here. Even the cast calls this COMANCE, with comedy elements being main theme but still delivering those sweet, heart-fluttering moments with our main couple.
➥ Acting
Lee Jun Young is phenomenal—seriously, is there a role he can’t ace? Easily one of K-drama’s most diverse actors. Jung Eunji, another idol-actress, continues to impress me, in what is my second drama of hers. Both of them as the leads are chaotic, adorable with amazing chemistry. Think Business Proposal or Strong Woman DBS, but with a different flavor. Their expressions, dialogues, voice shifts are flawless - WHAT THE CUTIES! 💖 Even the rest of the cast is highly impressive - iconic and memorable in their own rights as they bring their roles to life.
➥ Music
Every song is a treat, but the real star? A parody belted out by the FL in Ep 3—roughly titled The Gym You Live In. No official release yet, so until then, rewatch Ep 3 and check out the lyrics: https://kisskh.at/profile/omo-omo-omo/feeds/8W0BZh6
➥ Overall Recommendation: BINGE IT.
A riotous comedy with slow-burn romance (comance) wrapped in a fitness-center setting. Absolute fun from start to finish!
