Completely deserved first place!

I honestly don't understand how her disorder can be an excuse for her toxic behaviour. Explanation? Sure, but not an excuse. The fact that she had a difficult childhood and trauma doesn't mean that she can treat people that way. For me it doesn't mean that she can blackmail and abuse somebody and we should be ok with that. That's why I see this relationship as toxic.

It's okay to not be okay would be for me the most toxic drama hands down. I honestly don't understand the hype...
Second place would be Uncontrollably fond, I've never seen so many characters who's main purpose is to make others' life miserable.
Somewhere further down this road I'd put Secret Garden and King2Hearts for toxic male leads.

Thank you very much!

Ok, I have to admit, I absolutely admire the dedication for creating this article. I've enjoyed it very much. The way of showing seemingly not that interesting data in such an interesting way is absolutely amazing! I would love to see more articles like that on MDL! :)

I'll try to find it, but that was barely a moment, so it won't be easy. From what I remeber the scene took place in front of her house and might be somewhere in first half of the season. At the end it might turn out that it was only funny to me, not gonna lie ;)

There's this scene in What's Wrong with Secretary Kim, where Young Joon mocks Mi So for her over enthusiastic tone of voice and this will never stop to crack me up. Top notch acting from Park Seo Joon. I think I had to rewind this scene like a ten times. There's much more of it, but this one I think I will never forget.

Certainly Start-up, I was never hoping for a second lead soooo bad.

So I think I'm somewhere between Sisyphus ending (amazing, but still) and Hyun Bin's character behaviour in Secret Garden. I swear I was so happy when he was finally slapped.

Of course not the only ones, but they’re cuteness incarnated :D

Haha, let’s just be honest, this list was created solely for Strong Woman Do Bong Soon! ;) That is the cutest pairing ever! :D

Omg finally, this list if for me! In both King 2 hearts and Secret Garden I wished somebody slapped male leads into another dimention. These are top two but the trope of male lead being total ass at the beggining is so bad I can’t stand it!

I'm so happy for her. Her performance was absolutely fantastic!

Absolutely agree. For me What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim is one of those dramas that don’t need very developed plot line to still be very good drama. Characters and their interactions completery suffice for most part. Usually that bothers me a bit but this time I had great time nevertheless.
Plus, kudos for a great title of your review ;)

I totally agree with your review. I've also finished watching this drama recently and honestly I was disappointed that drama so praised by many was just so mediocre. It had some good sides, but I can mostly remember from is lack of chemistry between main characters (and I don't think it's actors fault, rather writing of the characters) and just how overall exhausting watching it was.
