O Iubire ca-n Afaceri (2022)

Top notch comedy

The best thing from among many delightful aspects of this series is the dynamic comedic duo Kim Se Jeong and Seol In Ah. Whenever the scene focus is on these two they generate laughter and this was much more apparent my second time watching. This praise shouldn't be taken as criticising the performances of the other leads. This is a feel good romantic comedy that comes across as fresh and original despite treading some old cliche pathways. The two leading couples have chemistry that works together.

PS One personal irritation for situation comedies is when the situations are so badly contrived i.e. people making absurd choices and then scramble to escape. 'Business Proposal' has few like that. What makes much of the humor work is that the choices and resulting situations are usually 'reasonable' enough to be believable. That sets the stage for the comedy talents of the dynamic comedic duo, both together and when working off of their leads, to shine at their best.

Facilmente o drama que mais ri na minha vida.

Não vi tantos ao ponto de falar que considero pretendente surpresa um clichê. Mas, fazia muito tempo que não via um e ele me fez rir e me divertir tanto que não imaginava que poderia rir assim com um drama. Os personagens são ótimos e a interpretação dos atores é PERFEITA. A protagonista não decepciona nem por um momento.

Achei a história muito bem desenvolvida, a forma como as coisas acontecem é muito fluída, não fica muito tempo no mesmo problema e girando no mesmo lugar. O romance é no ponto certo, e é muito legal ver como os dois protagonistas se aproximam.

O casal secundário também é perfeito.

Enfim, recomendo MUITO, assistam sem medo.

Old School Rom-Com Cliches

I really hate when they have last minute NEW drama they have to resolve halfway through the final episode. Even worse I hate the time slips and travel that make no sense.

This was 100% standard Kdrama rom-com cliche.

It was fun enough for a quick watch.

My honest opinion is that Kim Min Gue was the better actor in this drama and I really liked him as Cha Sung Hoon. I enjoyed the secondary couple much better, although they wrote Young Seo as having episodes of psycho chick in her. I didn't get it, because most 80% of the time she was a sweet, down-to-earth, rational person who is a loyal friend, but every once in a while she acted like she didn't know what was going on and got angry for BS reasons. Past that, I did love them as a couple.

The rest of it was pure cliche... that's all I can say... lol.

A romcom k-drama worth watching!

OMG what a ride! This is one of the most enjoyable kdramas I‘ve watched so far.

There are only 12 episodes which I think is a big plus, stretching the story more would have made it less entertaining I guess. But like this the pace was perfect and it is ideal to binge-watch (like I did ;) ).

The main couple and also the second leads have a beautiful story and their chemistry is really sparkling. I especially liked the interaction and the focus on the friendship between the two male protagonists as well as the female protagonists.

Ahn Hyo Seop‘s acting is on point and Kim Se Jeong has become one of my favourite actresses.

So, if you‘re looking for something light-hearted, funny and romantic, you should definitely watch this drama! I highly recommend it.

Tropey without cringe

Is it a trope overdone? Yes. But is it still done beautifully? Yes. It's the perfect rom-com watch. This one's for the light silly rom-com watchers.
Good things:
1. If you want to watch attractive people being attractive this is a perfect watch. It's a treat to the eyes.
2. Easy going plot with a fun storyline. It's been done too many times yet this was so worth the watch.
3. The outfits, the fashion, makeup everything on point. It's not over flashy but very beautiful.
4. The bromance and sisterhood in this was splendid and fun to watch. So chaotic.
5. The grandfather was so caring and the grandson granddad relationship was good too.
6. I personally loved the soundtrack, but to each their own.
7. Both the couples chemistry was FIRE. The second couple was next level
8. No toxicity. Even that one character that competes with the second lead was just more funny than annoying.
Bad Things:
1. 12 episodes, felt short and the ending is a little rushed.
2. If anyone's looking for something different or deep this is definitely not it. It's just cliches after cliche.
Interesting things
There's a drama going parallelly with the original drama in the story, it was pretty interesting . Almost as if it was making fun of itself.

Fall and accidentally lips meet lips?

Omaygat, I think there are only Chinese dramas that highlight good looks and beauty. It turns out that I also encountered this scene in the drama "Business Proposal"

Overall, the Korean drama "Business Proposal" is indeed similar to Chinese dramas such as the dramas "Love in Time" and "Be with You" which are studded with accidental, coincidental and 'magic' scenes.

What is meant by magic is an unreasonable scene like, suddenly Shin Ha Ri opens an umbrella for Kang Tae Moo, even though his hands were empty before, he didn't bring an umbrella. ️

There is also a coincidental scene that ends in a cliché like when Shin Ha Ri is afraid that her grandfather, Kang Tae Moo, who is desperate to defecate, pulls each other on the door handle and ends up falling for the grandfather.

The grandfather is the owner of an international company, you know, why isn't he escorted until he gets the right facilities? ️

But.., because the drama "Business Proposal" is studded with beautiful and handsome stars, I really recommend watching it for entertainment and not to be annoyed.😃😃

Very happy to see the acting and beauty of Seol In-A who once played the role of Jo Hwa-Jin in Mr. Queen, who formed a friendship with the beautiful Kim Se-Jeong

And the bromance between the handsome Kim Min-Kyu and Ahn Hyo-Seop.

That is, the drama could present a story that does not make sense. However, it is obligatory to provide maximum entertainment for the audience.
