I just finished watching this and I am still under the impression of the most unfitting and ridiculous ending I have ever seen in dramaland.... but I will come back to that later. 1) This drama will give you more characters to passionately hate than any other. It is like school-bullying with adults in an office. PREPARE FOR IT. You will want to punch someone whilst watching this. I had to laugh at some point, because it reminded me of animes like One Piece or DragonBall, where just after you finish one villain, the next, more powerful one, comes along and you fight again... One part, that kept me watching, was the hope that all the bad guys, who persistently made life for some of the office newbies difficult, would get what they deserve in the end (who wouldn't want that to see?). However, I was utterly dissappointed, that just one had a bit of pay-up time, the rest just went into the wind, as if months and months of harrassment never happened. 2) I have to admit, that besides the awesome Mr. Oh at some point every character just got onto my nerves. But I suspect this is because of this ridiculous hierarchy that is played out here and that I, as a European, cannot comprehend. THEY ARE ALL PUSH-OVERS AND I HATE IT. Especially the sexual discrimination was hard to watch, and how Young Yi just suffered it, like a good little girl. One might argue that this is what work-life is, but nope - this is what work-life SHOULDN'T be. 3) This might be the worst OST I have ever heard. Not that it is bad by itself, but it is just so melancholic and depressing... every time the title got played in "Misaeng" (sound in the background) I felt a little bit more depressed. Seriously, this drama is listed under "comedy", but it was only about 15% comedy at the most, it's definitely 80% slife-of-life, at least, and nothing else. 4) This didn't bother me too much, but you should know, that the whole thing plays out 99,9% in the office (a tiny part of it is during after-work drinking, too). You get amost zero private life etc. This revolves around the work, and as Mr. Oh said "Work is our life", this drama is about work. (And it showed me once again, why I would never want to work in such a company...) 5) The ending, as I mentioned, is like: WHAT? Then you remember somewhere in the past that at the beginning of the first episode was this one scene.... and then it was all about the office. And now, 20 episodes later, they continue with this beginning. And you realize, that it's the weirdest ending ever. It does not give you any answers - I would have loved to see where ALL the newbies were heading to or ended up. But nope, instead they gave us a crazy mixture of James Bond and Indiana Jones scene. I really asked myself whether GurRae didn't just die and this was his dream of heaven or whatever... Ok. I gotta admit, this was some kind of rant. I still liked the drama and watched it, because 1) it was well made. The athmosphere, the direction, the cuts were great. 2) I kept waiting for the newbies to pull through. 3) I really liked Mr. Oh and his father attitude towards his subordinates. I guess, this is a drama, that is better to watch one or two episodes at a time, not all at once. Well, this is off my chest. You gotta see, whether you like it. Maybe bully-haven is just the thing for you ;)
