Today's Webtoon (2022)

Not Your Traditional K-Drama

This has become one of my favorite K-Dramas! It had comedy, drama, heart, etc. It is not heavy on romance at all (depending on the viewer, this might be good or bad I guess lol).

I personally found this K-Drama never boring. I was impressed with how much they fit into each episode. It never felt like they were putting in filler content. I ended up loving just about every character too. And the story was so heartwarming and inspiring. It's definitely one of those dramas that have me questioning my career path yet again lol.

My only complaint is that we don't really find out who the female lead ends up with! I was conflicted the whole time about who I wanted her with and got mixed signals. Finally, at the very end, one of the guys confesses but she says nothing! I had personally thought that though she cared about him, she had never considered that one specifically as a potential love interest honestly even if they did have good chemistry.

So, I would love a second season. It would be interesting to see them explore more into a romantic storyline while continuing to introduce us to new Webtoon artists and continue seeing the growth of the current artists and the PDs! I feel like there's so much potential.

Heartwarming and motivating

If you want to watch a light hearted drama, feeling like you aren't doing well and need motivation i recommend you this. This is not a energy shot steroid but a feel good drama, it may not excite you much but will definitely give comfort. As it is not a rom com but a workplace story their conversation and life lessons, experience is what made me watch this. They will teach you the value and need of humanity among us. The safe environment one need to grow and develop. I love every episode as I've binged till 10 episodes and waited for the next i didn't feel bored or unnecessary twists. The osts are sweet and beautiful. A little love story between leads is good and help one in developing character and change of heart.

Watch when bored

Its one of those feel good kdramas tbh. It didn't leave a strong mark on me after I finished and I honestly already forgot what the kdrama was about. It does get interesting at times but this is also one of those kdramas where you just have to have patience to get through. I didn't hate it though! I think the characters are very likeable and I like how romance didn't play a big part but it was still subtly there. If you're bored and just wanna start a kdrama for the sake of it then this is the one! Its not that hard to follow although you kinda forget what the plot is throughout it, and it ends with a sort of an open ending. You don't know if the main character ends up with the main lead or the second lead. I'm glad they left it like this!!

Static Plot and Characters

The first two episodes are honestly really exciting. It sets the tone of the show and shows a lot of potential for the directions it could take. However, I've watched over half the show by now and nothing has changed. Every episode essentially goes like this: one of their artists has a problem, they try and find a way to fix it, meanwhile evil director guy tries to get the webtoon team kicked out of the company because they're struggling to keep up sales. This fact, by the way, is one of the major issues in this webtoon and, yet, despite reaching episode 8 NO progress whatsoever has been made. I was hoping for a story like Search: WWW where they come up with ways to increase sales and become number one. However, this entire first half of the show was just a major drag and repeated complaining. Also basically all the characters except Ma Eum (female lead) and the annoying coworker are static and boring. They have no character development whatsoever, and the male lead (is he even the male lead at this point?) lacks any personality. Honestly getting ready to drop the show....

1• the --SCRIPT --
Script is very fresh yet so exciting. Every character have their own story. It's a female centred plot but not boring..they show every characters life so beautifully.
Romance plot is amazing.. both Ml and second ML are charming and have amazing chemistry with FL.
Side characters are nicely written.

CHARACTERS ---
Om ma eum/FL(kim sejeong's character is just so amazing and it's fun to watch her dealing with everything happening around her.
She is someone who is very warm and bright just like a sun. Her quality is she never gives up and always gives her best . When she make up her mind nobody can stop her. she is so kind and always smile so brightly (just like sejeong herself) but she is very hardworking and strong minded girl.

ML is a handsome a handsome co-worker who is well qualified. He is someone who is not rude and always think before doing anything.. he is sensitive and tbh a very new kind of male lead in kdrama land..godd nowdays male lead's are setting bar so high..why they are so good ..huhh..

Second ML is someone with a special charm . He is a senior who never forget to help FL and always encourage her.. I like his character.. he is an amazing boss. His chemistry with FL is so good..

ACTING:-
Kim sejeong's is an amazing actress.. her past dramas proved that.. she proved herself as a good actress in school 2017, uncanny counter, business proposal etc.
As we all know she is a CHEMISTRY queen.. her chemistry with ML, second ML and everyone in the drama isso good and fun to watch.
Her laugh is addictive and her versatility is no joke.. over-all sejeong didn't disappoint me at all.

Other cast is doing amazing job too..there are so many senior actors too so you can understand how good this drama is.

Lost

I wanted to like this series. I loved the lead actress in business proposal. She’s perky and always portrays positivity. But the story is, I’m afraid, going nowhere. The characters arks are not developed enough. We still don’t know anything about the ML and we are already mid way through. He’s indecisive about his life and about what to do. Big deal… I think he could have been a little bit stronger. Not too strong as to geopardise the gender swap comedy scenes which I particularly enjoy. I find him flat without any real personality.
The supporting cast is so so as well apart from the annoying coworker who really is doing a great job at getting on my nerves. Even On Ma Eum’s boss is too flat a character.
It could have been a bit more powerful I think.
The webtoon industry is depicted as ruthless and that’s what I found interesting.
I’ll continue to watch but without much conviction …

Stand Up For Woman

I really loved this drama. The female lead was strong and not perfect. As humans we make mistake but her heart was to do her best. This is the Korean version of "Sleeper Hit" from Japan, which is also on VIKI. I enjoy this version better because it went a little slower to understand each episode and what was going on. The 2 male leads where very supportive of the female lead and it was great to see that even in a company you can get support and not just challenges from the male side. Romance was not really a thing in this drama. The little we have is dry and not really emotional. I also liked the issues that it brings out about the artist of the comic draw of their experience in life and how they determine and see the world. The actors were great in their performance and I enjoy the story.

Almost perfect !

The main plot, for thoses who don't appreciate this drama, is the webtoon team and family : how to face, deal and actually create and published webtoons. The background is rich and subtile, with all the aspect of what we can expect froma a series about creation and artistics thematics. Fortunatly the love story plot didn't slow down to much the main subject.
I am fond of dramas wich can make you discover a world, and as an artist, i appreciate a lot the way this production has deal with creation, doubts, dreams and run aways. Specially the "peeve weapon" creator and all his madness in order to save his life by drawing. It's the only weak point for me, dealing with creation and madness means to be helped with a therapist. Most dramas let us believe that you can heal only with accomplished dreams and love but it's not totally true. With deap traumatisms, art will give you the energy to heal but a good therapy is needed to drive the energy of healing to sucess.
I love the redactors role which can help creators and how both imagination and economics aspects have to mix to became a hit. The dialogues are good and profond and the frequent quotes makes me want to read webtoons now :) The cast is well done and the suspense is vivid till the end about who will be the male lead, lmao. It's a dream team and almost the whole heroes team is a little bit to much humanist and kind but it's so good to see that it still exist on earth, in 2022, even in a fiction.
Happy to have watched this and follow the next works of the screenwriter of this drama :)

Very moving and has great characters

I originally started this just because I wanted to see actor Nam Yoon Su in a main role in the hopes that he will end up with whoever his love interest was. I quickly became invested in the story itself and loved the characters for their own personality, flaws and growth. It was very satisfying to see the character development and I liked how much they delve into the lives of the side characters so that their experiences are really fleshed out. It was fun to see the challenges that artists face along with those that support them. It was extremely satisfying to watch, I did not expect to love it as much as I did. It really makes you think about pursuing dreams and balancing that with reality. I liked that some characters did not have their original dream realized and moved on to a new dream. I think it’s important to recognize that sometimes things just don’t work out and that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

Positive Energy

The best thing about this drama is that they don't drag on too much romance (this is what I'm afraid of happening like in the drama "Start Up"). They can stay focused on the main theme that raises the story of the world of weebtoon creators and their scope. And also the ending is well packaged with no rush like most dramas these days.

If there was one word or two that could describe this whole drama it would be: "positive energy".
I think it is quite representative of this Drama.

Kim Sejeong proved that she can be a good actress. Even though at the beginning of the drama, the audience was still attached to his character in the previous drama, but I think that was not the case in the next few episodes. Even I think the character On Ma Eum is very suitable to be played by Kim Se Jeong. A character who has a strong personality and determination but looks cheerful and tough. I can't imagine if this character was played by any other actress besides Kim Sejeong.
