Hard to rate this one - It's more than the just "fair," but compared with so many other dramas whose primary function is to produce easy light laughs, it dulls a little. Don't get me wrong - each of the characters were refreshing. Their Kdrama counterparts are almost always more angst/drama-ridden and overly-emoting. But after 18 eps, Protect the Boss is almost too predictable. On the other hand: two overly-gorgeous males having a cat fight under a table cloth is possibly the best thing I have ever seen in all my days!
