Perhaps most of the people who are reading this are already familiar with this new Korean drama based on a webtoon which is the "Business Proposal". The genre of this is romance comedy or rom-com. It aired on SBS TV and is also available on the streaming platform Netflix from February 28 to April 5, 2022. It consists of 12 episodes only.
It is starring...
Ahn Hyo-seop as "Kang Tae-mu" - the CEO of the company where Ha-ri works
Kim Se-jeong as "Shin Ha-ri" - food researcher at Tae-mu's company
Kim Min-kyu as "Cha Sung-hoon" - Tae-mu's secretary
Seol In-ah as "Jin Young-seo" - Ha-ri's best friend

"Business Proposal" is a popular ongoing kdrama from February 'til its last release of the episode. I have heard so much good feedbacks from it wherein the viewers really enjoyed it. That's why, even before I started to watch it, I already have a high expectation from this kdrama.
We all have different opinions and I respect others' opinions or perspectives when it comes to this drama. But honestly speaking, in my own perspective, I didn't like this that much because it's too cliche and predictable. It is also somehow similar to "What's Wrong with Secretary Kim". But the thing is that I find "What's Wrong with Secretary Kim" funnier than "Business Proposal".
I think it's also because of the casts, Kim Se-jeong and Seol In-ah. Both of the 2 lead roles, I have seen with their past kdramas wherein they played very serious characters. Kim Se-jeong as Do Ha-na in "The Uncanny Counter" and Seol In-ah as Jo Hwa-jin in "Mr. Queen". And to see them playing such quirky roles here in "Business Proposal", I think nanibago lang ako. Hahaha.
I have 2 things that I wanted to point out in this drama though...
First, the second lead couple has so much more chemistry than the lead couple. Kim Min-kyu and Seol In-ah really did a great job! Even in their behind the scenes videos, they seem yo be so comfortable of each other and they really have an intense chemistry.
Second, this is so far the kdrama that has the best kissing scenes. 😅 If you watched the kdrama already, you will probably agree with me. 🙈
I also wanted to give appreciation to how Kim Min-kyu is so hot in here. 🥵 Hahahaha. I have seen him in "Snowdrop" and I really think that he was a great actor since then so I am glad to see him have another project with a different genre this time.
Closing Thought
Overall, this drama is just fine for me. Not so good but not so bad either. Again, it's just my own perspective. Maybe it had something to do with the high expectation that I set because it was really popular. I've seen and heard people talk about it a lot on Facebook, Twitter, and even around my close friends and acquaintances.

Halu there, mareee! :) Sorry now ko lang nabada 'tuuu, hihi.
Super agree sa chemistry nila Kim Min-kyu and Seol In-ah. Grabiiiii~ kilig na kilig ako sa kanila lalo na kay Sung Hoon. Omooo! 😍 Nai-imagine ko din kasi s'ya while portraying a character sa Wattpad. Knows mo si Jordan Moises Herrera ng "Heartbreaker" ni JamilleFumah? S'ya naiisip ko jan lalo at kengkoy din yung lead girl nya. Hihi! Wala, share ko lang. :D
And yes again, super bet na bet ko mukbang-an hereee. Lalo na yung sa round 2 "daw" nila Sung Hoon at Young-seo. Eka sa Facebook, nakaka-2 kissing scenes na sila pero sila Tae-mu at Ha-ri eh wala pa. 🙈
