Gaus Electronics (2022)

I think this show is a little overrated, reading other reviews & the comment section I had the impression that this is the most amazing romantic comedy ever. Well it is definitely not, not even close, but 2022 had been quite bleak for Korean romcoms & this one admittedly stands out a little, because it does not really have anything majorly wrong with it & the enemies to lovers trope is something most people -including myself- enjoy. For a corporate kdrama the office slice of life is quite unoffensive, but it's not very interesting either, the hook in the show is just the comedy & romance, nothing else, but the acting is not exactly top tier and the comedy is hit & miss for me. I'm not a huge fan of slapstick & this drama has quite a bit of that & also there are a lot of really juvenile gags. As for the romance it's good, but I'm not a huge fan of the ML in this role & the chemistry is not all that believable. Also the ending felt a bit rushed, did this flop on Korea, so it got shortened to 12 episodes???

I decided to give this 8/10 only, because there were very few good romcoms over the past year & at least I enjoyed this one a lot, though I'm quite certain a rewatch is not in my future.

Funny af and charming but felt it ended too soon, needed more episodes

This show is super funny with amazing casts and even has a person of color there. A Korean actor who was born in Bangladesh, I liked that no one made any deal about it. He was just like everyone else
Also he had so many funny lines. That's your bias and that's a stereotype bits were so funny.
But episode 1 of this show is bad lol, boring but if you can get past that then you'd love the show too
I love the leads here as well. The FL is super charming and funny and she had great chemistry with the ML, who sometimes got on the FL nerves a lot and always so fun to watch. But I feel like the show really ended way too soon. When I reached episode 12, I was like wait.. is that the finale wtf. Lol

They really could have used at least 16 episodes.
There are so many stuff that really left unanswered but it is a bitter sweet ending. See you tomorrow ?
The 2nd FL is amazing af. Her reactions to stuff and her lines delivery are always so funny and she's super charming. She has great chemistry an) with the 2nd ML but she friend zoned him so hard in one episode, I was laughing nonstop.
There's a 3rd couple, well second to be honest since the second leads didn't actually get together.
I was surprised they paired two leads together. Since he appeared to be much older than her but that third couple was just there, there weren't any development for them. I did like the actress though

Overall I loved the show, very fun and snappy dialogues and quirky characters. Also the end credit was nice. All of them singing the name of the show. So cute.

SO MUCH FUN

I didn't expect to laugh out loud this much. I nearly bounced off it after the first ep - thought it was mildly amusing, but it didn't hook me - but from #2 onwards I couldn't stop watching it. All of the characters are ridiculously great, and the writing is really tight: there's a whole lot of clever in with the stupid, a ton of sly references, trope-twisting (especially loved how they twisted the Candy set-up) and fun surprises. If it hooks you I guarantee you will not be bored and you will wish it was longer. It isn't deep and meaningful, but it is thoroughly enjoyable, and it's the first drama I've watched that left me really hoping for a Season 2, because I need more of the second couple for sure! - and we never got to see how Aziz gets on in the office! - or what happens to Power! - aaaa so many possibilities. And it has high rewatch value for many reasons, not least that it will be fun going back and spotting Mr Anonymous. In short: YES! WATCH IT! and vote it up to increase the chances of more of it.

Best Office Romance Drama I need season 2

I am so obsessed with this show it is the literal definition of a romance comedy and has one of the best concept and storyline in an office romance drama? Anything to do with coming of age in the corporate industry and finding your soul mate i will always watch especially when done well. This show does the rivals to lovers trope well with the main couple especially coz they showed the journey of how they got to the love part of their story. I also love the other couples and side characters in the show especially Aziz, he definitely stole the show in my opinion. Now I really need Kwak Dong-yeon in more romance dramas as the main lead especially coz he's proven that he will be good at that role. I wouldn't be mad if we were to get a second season.

Funniest office Kdrama I've ever watched

So at first I thought it was ridiculous and superficial then I saw few clips on instagram and I laughed hard while I was so stressed out so I decided to give it another watch of the first two episodes ,, some scenes were meh but some others were just so funny to burst out laughing just because of the laugh it self ,, I loved how I laughed from it so It grows on me to watch it
you want find any thing deep or meaningful about this drama ,, not the romantic not the office work ,, it's similar to sitcom but it's not and it's decent not inappropriate as most sitcoms
the characters are acting out of normal scope to make you laugh that's it ,, a lot of exaggerations for the laughs itself
if you want to unload long day of exhaustion this is your drama to watch
I'm sad it's finished ,,I want more
I didn't rate it higher because the script was mostly clichés and it didn't purpose meaningful point other than laughing

Not the Office Romance Story You Want

Headline nya provokatif banget, tapi itu kenyataannya. Kalau kalian cari office romance yang mirip-mirip Secretary Kim, kayaknya bukan drama ini jawabannya. Gaus Electronic adalah drama komedi yang dibalut romansa tipis-tipis dengan video promosi di setiap akhir episode yang mana membuat kesan 'marketing' dan 'branding' nya kerasa sekali. Plotnya yang ringan dengan komedi di banyak bagian (dan akting para pemerannya yang mantep, apalagi akting kocaknya kwak dong yeon) yang saling melengkapi bikin drama ini cocok untuk ditonton dikala jenuh dan butuh hiburan, yang bener-bener hiburan.

Impressive story writing, excellent acting, fun comedy

I came to see Kwak Dong Yeon in lead role because he impressed in vincenzo & queen of tears. Blown away by his acting and how he can be weak, yet strong, also making his naivete be endearing & admirable and not cringey or iriitating.

Kudos to the writer for giving us multi layer characters and a fun story that quickly gets you rooting for the team. The character of Aziz was funny because of the courage to play on typical prejudices to enrich the humour instead of playing it safe. Please writerrs, we are waiting for more.

All actors did justice th their roles to create the right mix. I especially liked what Sazal Kim did with his character Aziz.

There were times where it slowed down a bit but then I quickly got hooked again with the next salvo of comedy. It is so refreshingly different from norm followed by many using the same old same old storylines. A nice recipe hoping for season 2.

PLEASE WATCH IT ITLL CURE YOUR DEPRESSION

GUYS LISTEN i did not plan on watching this kdrama i only watched it because the male lead was one of the main leads in vincenzo ... and i LOVED this mans role in vincenzo and fell in love with him so ... i watched this kdrama for him. and i dont regret it. oh my god it is so funny i cant even emphasize. the male lead is SOOO STUPID AND DUMB and the female lead is dumber. its literally dumb and dumber but the duo is so cute. like actually so cute. i literally needed to pause sometimes because i would get so much 2nd hand embarrassment or i would laugh too hard and couldn't focus. if you dont like this show then youre boring. SORRY NOT SORRY!!!! anyway please watch the show its so funny, not long, and funny. did i mention its funny? god its so funny i wanna rewatch it right now. ugh. i miss it.

Really enjoyable workplace romcom!

There is a style of kdramas that are light and fun to watch. This drama slots in well with some of its peers, Pegasus Market and Chief Kim, for example. Its funny, sweet, and a good palate cleanser after watching some darker dramas. Its acted well too.

Its a bit cruder than other kdramas but its one of the few kdramas that is laugh out loud funny. I don't know if it would hold up on a rewatch since its fairly straightforward but something revealed in the final episode might be interesting to go back and watch. Hope there are more of these types of kdramas coming out this year!

cute fluffy rom-com to end the year 2022

Dec. 24, 2022

Gaus Electronics is a cute heartwarming fluffy rom-com to end the year. I feel like the Kdramas released lately for the past year or so has been very heavy and dark. So it is nice to have some rom-com to replenish and have like a break from these angsty melodramas.

Overall, Gaus Electronics follows the cliché troupe but I eat it up. Though I must say, I was more interested with the second lead couple plot more. I think it was just personal preference, I feel like the main lead just didn’t give me that suspense or interest to keep myself hook-up with their plot.

XD

Non ricordo nella mia vita di aver riso così tanto per un drama XD E' semplicemente fantastico! In quest'opera concorrono due parodie diverse ma che funzionano splendidamente insieme: la parodia delle storie romantiche e quella del lavoro d'ufficio (che comunque applicabile a qualsiasi tipo di lavoro). E' tutto così esagerato, portato a tratti all'estremo, eppure è anche così reale! Nel gruppo di lavoro ci sta sempre quello che non fa nulla, il tipo misterioso, il "leccaculo", il perenne incazzato e pure lo schiavetto. Ma cosa può accadere ad un figlio di papà che ritrova a voler provare questa vita? E se le situazioni si complicassero ulteriormente con strane coincidenze, tipo improvvisamente sei vicino di casa con quello che non sopporti?
Boh, io l'ho amato. Lacrime agli occhi dal ridere che mi sono fatta.
