So, I just finished watching this drama...and the ending..was good. I like how it turned out...we don't know if he was fully recovered from the disease..but at least he had the chance to see her again.I recommend watching this if you're into CEO and workplace dramas...I was into it..but when the drama was about to end...it began to slow down..like I'm losing the motivation to watch it but I told myself if you started it, then finished it.XD
The second main couple thooo...:0 WOW. I loved them. I just found out that the girl, Veronica Park, AKA Kim Jae Kyung, was the main actress from Noble, My Love. I love her acting in that drama and I'm so pissed how I did not recognize her. Those parts/acting really fit her personality and I wish to see more of those in the future. I like how Veronica Park/Kim Jae Kyung is the one who goes for it instead of the guy. Like..kissing..and yadiyada. She's the leader of the relationship.
I don't know what else to say, but I love how they add filters and such...and the antagonist guy..I feel bad. xd Like...ehh
I was actually shooked by how the truth turned out. It was actually good, TBH. Like...you weren't expecting that.
I would watch again but only for the good part...like the romances and comedy of this drama.
If you are into romance, comedy, and little suspense..I recommend this. I finished it in 2 days..with Homeworks xD

For The Non-Ambitious Watchers
This drama came across young and for the young at heart, fluffy, amusing at times and can be quite enjoyable if you are not an ambitious viewer looking for depth and every episode to make sense.I personally disliked it for the following reasons :
- Jin Ki Joo playing Gal Hee did a mediocre job acting in this role as one expected more as her role was key in leading the entire drama. The make-up department also did not help by giving her such heavy make-up and over dyed red curly bunch of hair which was quite glaring that it was hard to focus on her character. Poor thing, for such a pretty girl.
- Gal Hee's character was too meek and being able to share words of wisdom to her boss at times did not do much to hype up her character.
- Story line could have been better if the boss Min Ik (Kim Young Kwang) was not drawn to or liked the fake Veronica Park (Gal Hee) in the beginning, then it would have flowed a lot better. I understand that the story is trying to show that the boss is actually liking the same and one person, but for us who watch it was irritating, not required. Instead, if it was the fake Veronica chasing the boss and he in turn is more attracted to Gal Hee, the secretary....then the drama will make more sense.
- there were also many plots that did not make sense.
However, I scored slightly above average at 6.5 for overall viewing as I agree with a lot of other reviewers, Veronica Park (played by Kim Jae Kyung) truly SAVED the show. Her character was written out well and she also acted it out to perfection. Veronica Park is naturally beautiful. Loved her loud, irritating, arrogant and animated personality which actually have a great sense of maturity and a heart of gold. Her second couple role with Dae Joo (Koo Ja Sung) did a good job to keep us interested. His firm stance and not allowing Veronica Park to always get her way stood well and helped him to get and keep the girl!
As for the main lead couple, there was no need to make their relationship appear childish and innocent in demeanor. Hard to watch. Thank goodness we know Kim Young Kwang (the boss Min Ik) is a good actor and have been seen in a lot of other very good dramas.
Anyway, the drama can be entertaining to watch. Like I said, IF you are not taking the show seriously. Cheers!

We won this is a someway Rob review here. I am not extremely picky but I am a little picky when it comes to commonsense and integrity. I want you all this writing is coming from a person that really does not like movies that have foundation or plots built on lies. For me it’s like watching a fairy tale knowing the wolf or bad thing will arrive any moment. Well somebody see this as a pleasant drama I found it frustrating because just as in reality a liar always get caught in the person that hurt by the lie it is left to be hateful or except you in your life. That change the genre for me from comedy to drama.Normally I’d loved a show with this type of atmosphere however I really couldn’t enjoy it. Hey, maybe I’m just in my feelings but it was just something about the plot that I found not entertaining, “oh yeah, the parts that had our female lead take advantage of someone who couldn’t recognize her face for 19 out of 30 episodes.
An example of this would be pretending to be somebody else and going on a date with a blind person, Then going to work pretending like nothing happened. Something about that it did not sit right with me even though they have funny music playing or sentimental music going, even though she had such a youthful, innocent face.
in those situation, the lie was just too long for me.

Sweet, but flawed and sometimes irritating
As you can see by the review's title, I'm conflicted about this drama. I, like many others, am tired of the prosopagnosia trope; but this show at least had an original twist on it. It also went a little deeper into the medical aspects of it (causes, symptoms, etc.) than I've seen elsewhere.The disease, however, set the show up for one of the most annoying plotlines I've ever seen. Almost everything contrived to prolong the secretary's deception, even if characters had to make ridiculous, illogical decisions in order for that to happen. The deception itself was pretty despicable, no matter how much justification the show tried to provide. I found myself unable to enjoy some of the cute/romantic moments because I couldn't stop thinking about what the FL was doing to the ML simply because she was, well, selfish.
I found the overall wrap-up interesting and more satisfying than many dramas I've seen. In the end I was ok with the way the relationship between the ML and FL resolved itself, but along the way there were many times when I considered not watching the rest of the show because the deception just wouldn't end. I'm glad I did finish because both the main and secondary romances were ultimately very nice.

Demasiado Aegyo, XD :(
Un poco de Aegyo entre enamorados para bromear está bien pero cuando exageran ese comportamiento en un CEO de 30 años y hace "morritos" todo el tiempo termina pareciendo un idiota. Una pena, ya que la historia no está mal, podría haber sido interesante, pero exageran tanto lo "infantilmente adorable" que los protagonistas parecen idiotas. MUY IDIOTAS. Desde el punto de vista actoral, lo único destacable del dorama es el personaje de Verónica Park a cargo de Kim Jae Kyung pero el galán que le pusieron, tampoco destaca así que no recomendaría a nadie este doramaVond je deze recentie nuttig?

Saved by Veronica
The main story is nonsense that requires not only a suspension of belief (which is fine) but a complete disregard for consistency and logic anywhere. I mean there's an attempted murder, the driver is nosing around in the office with a lame excuse (which the FL defying all logic piles on in support), FL finds a mysterious file on her computer, then there's a break-in. You'd think there would be some suspense and tension or least like trying to put this all together - but no - the main characters bump along largely oblivious to anything. These crimes play into a secondary robninhoodish plot that rather than being revealed slowly will just kind of be dumped into a later episode. Oh yeah, the sometimes floating apparently sentient moss balls would be stupid in 99% of dramas but somehow fit in here. Don't get me wrong they're still stupid, but they fit in.Despite all that it manages to be entertaining if you don't pay close attention unless Kim JaeKyung is on screen as Veronica Park completely stealing every scene she's in. The Veronica Park character seems whack in the beginning but as the show progresses it's obvious she's everything that everyone else is not. Smart, communicates succinctly and honestly and actually helps those that make up the clown show around her progress with there lives.

The most frustrating drama I swear! I actually knew that it’s getting boring around episode 12 but I stayed because of Veronica Park. But I’ve never been mad at the main lead before in a drama. This is so frustrating. I really love young kwang and ki joo but their character is just so keep making me disappointed. I don’t know if the characters are just slow witter or just really dumb. When the time that main lead attacked the driver and the driver was obviously holding a knife or a cutter and he found out it’s the driver he didn’t even suspect him AT ALL. Like wtf? And when the female lead came she didn’t even question what the hell the driver was doing in the guy’s office. AND THE WAY SHE KEEP PRETENDING TO BE VERONICA PARK IS MAKING ME MAD. She’s being selfish like she know that the guy has been betrayed by the people around me.
I just wish that they could give something more justice about this because I really waited for this. I really want to continue because of Veronica Park and her partner because they’re so cute. But I just can’t watch it anymore, skipping the lead and not even knowing what is happening every minute is just so frustrating. Anyways. It’s funny story I love how sassy is the female lead around other people and funny is the male lead. But I’m done.

Just adorable!
So basically I have finished this in 3 days with 3 sleepiness nights (do not try this at home, thanks Netflix) and I really enjoyed watching the two leads. I just thought they were absolutely adorable together like their interactions were just wholesome and natural. Ki-joo Jin and Young-kwang Kim did such a adorable job for playing the characters, especially holding out for a steamy kiss at the end there ;)I even loved the Veronica Park character ,like you hardly see confident and laid back flirty girls in any romance show I've seen. She made me laugh y'all with her nonsense that she comes out with, including the other secretaries and the mother xD
However I will say that there were quite a few downfalls in this like when two people died in different scenes, they didn't add enough emotion to them.. I mean I nearly dropped this kromcom because the way they treated the tragic death scenes in this, weren't taken seriously and were quickly forgotten about. Also I didn't think that broken elevator scene in the end was really that necessary to end a story, I mean the guy got help and lived happily ever after!
Regardless of those complaints, this is such a very cute kdrama. It's very animated in some parts but it's very entertaining to watch at just 16 episodes. Give it a try if you want your heart to bloom!v

A light romantic comedy to watch without overthinking !
I really hesitated before starting this one as I saw some really bad comments about the ethic of it and how it was boring at the end blablabla. I've finaly started watching it because of a MV I saw on Youtube displaying the amazing chemistry between the leads and thanks to some positive reviews here and I am glad I did !I am gonna start with the story/writing : Prosopagnosia is quite popular lately in dramas and director/secretary stories are around for quite a long time so I would not say it is particulary original. There is a lot of plot holes/scenes that are completely wtf (like how come he cannot reconize his voice/hair) that I think bothered a lot of us watching . But once you stop asking yourself all those questions that clearly won't have an answer you can sure enjoy it and all the cute and funny moments that the drama has to offer. There is a little bit of "mystery" with a police investigation all along that managed to keep me engaged in the story and I think we had all the answers at the end and that is was quite "realistic" nothing too dramatical. As for the lying part, it's the same, do not overthink, it didn't bother me more than that as the intentions where not bad at all imo.
Acting/cast : Its 4 leads and their chemistry is clearly for me the strength of this drama.
The leads chemistry is really something but I think Kim Young Kwang is the type of actor that can make you believe he is in love with any female lead (you know what kind of actor I am talking about) their kiss scene where really believable and a special mention to the hand washing sccene :)
I knew Kim Young Kwang from its support roles in a lot of dramas and in white christhmas where I discovered him. He his really charismatic and I didn't managed to hate him, even in the beginning where he was suppose to act like a "cold" boss. His role was not cliché at all and he was more on the "nice male lead" side. Of course the looks are helping :p. Really liked his acting and I can't wait to see him in an other lead role.
It was my first time seeing Jin Ki Joo on screen. She was cute even tho sometimes annoying in the last episodes. Her loyalty to her boss & colleagues made me like her even when I found her annoying
A special SHOUT OUT to Veronica Park "speaking". My favorite character after the male lead. She was sooo funny and I would re watch some scenes for sure. She reminded me a lot of Shong Song Yi from my love from the stars. Her storyline with Gi Dae Ju was cute and I liked her friendship with the female lead.
I really enjoyed the last episode and the last scene, and didn't feel like it was rushed. I would even watch it if they give us a second season !
Overall a cute drama, very funny and it's exactly what I needed. If you can switch your brain off and just enjoy good chemistry and funny scenes then watch it !!!

Starting is nice .End of first episode make so much curious in a way that you can't wait for next episode ,such interesting story will find at starting 2 to 3 episodes then too much of hide and seek story that little make bore...After that love story started between Minik/Galhee and Daeju/Veronica... Introduction of veronica character is so funny and that character is also hillarious specially the dialogue "phang wa yo",veronica park hai yo..something like that..and "Awesome" one .Last change of president scene which makes negative character shock that's also nice.As a whole it is not too good but no too bad....drama.

I watched this for Kim Young Kwang not gonna lie. I first saw him in Good Doctor and fell in love with him. But what made me stay for this show was Jin Ki Joo. She is amazing!! Also Koo Ja Sung. He is so cute - his smile is sooooo cute. *********SPOILERS*************
The story is kinda meh. It's about a demanding boss with a chip on his shoulder who falls in love with his secretary, over played plot. Boss is well known to be able to read people. Secretary is super awesome at her job but still gets fired because Boss has trust issues. Due to some reason boss losses his ability to see faces, and the only face he does see is his secretary's - so he can't fire her.
Boss has been set up on a blind date by his family. Blind date doesn't show up. Secretary who was out with her friends and is dressed up shows up to inform him, but he mistakes her for his date, and for the first time in her life he treats her well so she plays along. He only recognizes her for her when she's in her secretary outfit - red cardigan.
Other side of town Boss's best friend is having a date/business meeting with Boss's blind date. It's a hot mess.
*********END OF SPOILERS***********
I enjoyed the premise. I loved the acting. I loved how the actors elevated the mediocre script. All the actors were BRILLIANT! Kim Young Kwang, Jin Ki Joo, Koo Ja Sung, Kim Jae Kyung. Amazing. All. Around! VP was meant to be a little cheesy and slapstick and OTT. And they both did a great job pulling that off. And when they needed to bring her brilliant moments to light they totally did that too. AMAZING JOB.
