Just finished the first ep and OMG ITS SOOOOO GOOD. I really like how this chairman-secretary couple fit together. PSJ’s character is goofy af and that scene with the pimple had me dying. I’m surprised that his character isn’t much of a jerk but more so narcissistic and the scenes with his friend, talking about what’s wrong with secretary Kim was also very funny.

Ughhh, really can’t wait for ep 2

 
LOL i found it funny as well, just seeing it from the clips
 
otherwise im still not starting this drama yet lool imhappyplz.png

1. [+1,039, -95] How is she so pretty~~

2. [+562, -28] Ah seriously ã…‹ã…‹ not only are the characters so in sync but I really like how the first episode is the same as the original webtoon

3. [+296, -25] She's a great actor, especially when she was acting out the allergies... her face got all red and tears welled up in her eyes~ ã…‹ it's a fun drama so far

4. [+314, -54] We all know that she got plastic surgery, can we please stop mentioning it? Her acting is great but I feel like people overlook it because of her plastic surgery and it's sad.

5. [+126, -20] She matches the character great... she's 'Miso' completely!!

6. [+56, -4] I started watching for Park Seo Joon but all I can notice now is Park Min Young because she's so pretty ã…‹ã…‹

7. [+45, -3] She has great pronunciation and tonality, her acting is really good. She seems to have researched a lot into her role.

1. [+404, -18] Park Seo Joon is so charming. He seems like a psycho but a cool one, and he's cute too~ ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹

2. [+332, -21] Park Seo Joon and Park Min Young match so well

3. [+305, -17] The casting is already good~ ^^

4. [+30, -3] Both leads are great at acting. Sometimes the hardest style of acting is just the normal life of an average character but they're showing great chemistry.

5. [+26, -7] The drama's fun because both leads are so good! I hope this carries through until the end!

6. [+23, -2] After seeing this episode, I've realized only one thing and it's that acting should be left to the pros like them, not idols.

7. [+22, -8] Both of them are so crazy good looking... they're straight out of the webtoon

8. [+16, -3] She's so good at acting... she always has great chemistry with her male co-stars

  • What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim: Episode 1

SecretaryKim01-00117.jpg

 

I didn’t realize how much I needed this show until I saw this first episode. It’s cheeky and irreverent, and loads of fun, but it’s not your typical summer rom-com. What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim may be silly on the surface, but it also has the potential to be thought-provoking and heart-wrenching as we get to know two people who have been around each other for so long, they don’t realize just how much they need each other.

 

 

EPISODE 1 RECAP

A serious, impeccably dressed man steps out of a car, and makes his way towards a fancy party being held by a hotel pool. We overhear a partygoer tell a friend that the man is LEE YOUNG-JOON (Park Seo-joon), that since he was made vice chairman of Yumyoung Group, the company’s profits have doubled.

The partygoer says that he’s the most competent young CEO in the nation, with a perfect face and body to match. A woman repeats a rumor that Young-joon stays away from women, but another woman claims to be currently dating Young-joon, though she admits that he keeps a distance.

Young-joon walks into the room, ignoring their greetings to sit alone on a sofa. He gracefully rests his chin on his hand, looking disturbed as he muses, “What’s wrong with her? Secretary Kim… what’s wrong with her?â€

 

SecretaryKim01-00043.jpg SecretaryKim01-00045.jpg

 

The lady in question, KIM MI-SO (Park Min-young), begins her work day at Young-joon’s home, making tea and choosing his suit and accessories for the day. She helps him with his tie, and he dramatically announces that his aura shines today. Mi-so contains her “this dude is whacko†reaction as she agrees that he is, indeed, dazzling.

Young-joon tells Mi-so not to answer a call from an executive director, unwilling to let the man’s bad news ruin his good mood. He says the executive director is guilty of incompetence, and also of being unaware of it, asking Mi-so how that’s even possible. Mi-so tells Young-joon indulgently that not everyone can be as perfect as him, and he chuckles in agreement. The phone rings again, and she says that this time, the call is from “an absolute sinner.â€

She accompanies Young-joon to work and follows him to another director’s office. The man jumps up, stammering that there’s been a misunderstanding, but Young-joon launches into a vicious lecture about his lecherous activities during work hours. When he’s finished, Mi-so sends Young-joon to a board meeting after confiscating his cigarette.

 

SecretaryKim01-00078.jpg SecretaryKim01-00077.jpg

 

After he leaves, Mi-so comforts the chastised director, explaining that Young-joon is only angry at him because he’s disappointed. She sends the director home to rest, and after he’s gone, Mi-so calls security to clear out his desk, reminding his secretary that Young-joon doesn’t give second chances.

At the board meeting, Director PARK YOO-SHIK (Kang Ki-young) outlines a plan to purchase an airline and grow it into a globally-ranking airline within five years. Young-joon interrupts to correct his math, then tells him to acquire the airline before abruptly marching out.

Once he’s gone, the executives all collapse into their chairs, complaining that Young-joon is way too intense. Yoo-shik punks them all by pretending that Young-joon walked back into the room, making them complain that Yoo-shik just doesn’t want them badmouthing his friend.

 

SecretaryKim01-00121.jpg SecretaryKim01-00122.jpg

 

After listening to Mi-so speaking English on the phone, Young-joon remarks that her English has improved since they first visited the U.S. nine years ago. He credits his unwavering support, and Mi-so agrees that she improved because he embarrassed her every time she made a mistake. Young-joon entirely misses her sarcasm and says that if embarrassment and scolding helps, then he’ll continue to do so, and corrects her pronunciation of the word “accent.†PFFT.

They arrive at a decadent party that evening, Young-joon sporting a sharp tuxedo and Mi-so in a stunning red dress. As they navigate the evening, Young-joon speaks to the various foreign guests about his company in several languages.

At one point, a trio of beautiful ladies get excited when Young-joon seems to notice them and heads in their direction. But he walks right past them to admire his own reflection in a mirror, LOL, and Mi-so joins him and confirms that he looks perfect.

COMMENTS

Whoa, that escalated quickly. I can actually understand why Young-joon would make such an offer, and how it wouldn’t seem like much of a leap to him: Mi-so wants to get married, and he doesn’t want to lose her as his secretary, so logically, if they get married, they both get what they want. What he fails to understand is that he’s missed Mi-so’s point entirely. What she wants isn’t simply marriage, but what it represents — love, freedom, and choice in how to live her life. Right now, Young-joon represents work and obligation to Mi-so, so I fully expect her to fling his thoughtless proposal right back in his face.

 

But I’m so glad that Young-joon and Mi-so had that talk… well, argument. As much time as they spend together, I’m guessing they’ve never had a real, honest conversation, and obviously Mi-so had a lot of reasonable fears and concerns. Young-joon has monopolized all of her time for years, never realizing how unfair it was of him, and although at first I thought she was nuts for quitting a well-paying, stable job, by the end of the episode I could feel Mi-so’s frustration and desire for more out of life. And Young-joon needed to hear that he’s been selfish and thoughtless… it probably didn’t sink in, because he’s got a pretty thick skull, but it will in time.

 

SecretaryKim01-00447.jpg

 

It seems obvious that Young-joon already has a head start over Mi-so when it comes to unrealized romantic feelings. He’s already showing some jealousy such as when Mi-so got male attention at the party, and his feelings of rejection over her quitting her job are definitely more personal than professional. But of course he doesn’t know he’s feeling anything for Mi-so other than dependence and familiarity, because he’s not in the habit of thinking highly of anyone but himself. But with Park Seo-joon at the wheel, watching Young-joon learn to stop being such a navel-gazing twit and make an effort to care about someone else should be hilariously fun.

And if anyone can perfectly pull off a character like Young-joon, it’s Park Seo-joon — he somehow manages to take a character who’s completely arrogant, wholly self-absorbed, and infuriatingly self-indulgent, and still make him adorable and endearing. What’s more, you can tell he’s having fun, and the only thing I love more than seeing an actor play a character to perfection is watching them have a blast while doing it. It’s a quality he brings to all of his characters, that little sparkle of his own enjoyment in portraying them, and it’s one of the reasons I luff him so much.

 

SecretaryKim01-00475.jpg

 

And Park Min-young is no slouch, either — she’s been a personal favorite since Sungkyunkwan Scandal, and she’s only gotten better with time. I didn’t get as strong of a sense of Mi-so’s personality in this first episode like I did with Young-joon, but that’s understandable. Mi-so’s job requires her to wear a pleasantly neutral mask, so much so that after almost ten years, even she doesn’t know who she is. She works hard to always seem cheerful and pleasant, even to her friends and family. The most authentic moment we saw from Mi-so was when she freaked out at the spider, but otherwise she’s careful to keep her true feelings hidden. I do think Mi-so has feelings for Young-joon, but if she’s aware of them, she probably wonders if they’re even real, since her whole life revolves around him and his needs. I think that Mi-so is right to want to break away and figure out who she really is apart from “Secretary Kim.†Her personal journey should be interesting as she figures out what she wants from life.

My first impression of What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim is overwhelmingly positive. It’s bright and funny in unexpected ways, but the actors have the chops to offers some pretty heavy-hitting emotional moments once the characters’ feelings start to get involved. I’m particularly appreciative of the twist on the typical office love story, which almost always begins when the lead pair start working together. But in Young-joon and Mi-so’s case, they’ve been working together for almost a decade already, which I anticipate will complicate their inevitable romance an interesting ways. I’m hoping for something like we saw in Fight My Way â€” two people who already know each other inside and out, but only in a certain context, who struggle when it becomes necessary to redefine their relationship. It’s going to be awkward and weird and adorable, and I can’t wait.

  • Team Dramabeans: What we’re watching???

www_secretary1.jpg

 

So, what are we all watching this week?

 

What kept you reaching for more (or agonizing when there was no more), and what made you want to throw your remote through the screen? Time to weigh in…

  • What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim: I love the rapid-fire dialogue and the smart, witty way these characters speak. It’s a bright rom-com with a fantastic premise and a funny, modern take on the classic chaebol-secretary relationship, and the pairing is delightful. I especially love Park Min-young in this—she’s the aspirational career woman and relatable everygirl rolled into one, and I find myself rooting for her personal happiness from minute one. I’ve only seen one episode but I’m already addicted.

  • What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim: Park Min-young isn’t my bias but I swear she always chooses shows that I end up liking. Or maybe it’s her energy that I like? Park Seo-joon isn’t a lightweight in the make-this-show-enjoyable department either. I keep giggling at all his posturings especially since we all know he’ll get his comeuppance soon. I’m just here with pompoms cheering him to think more and more highly of himself, because that ensuing fall is going to be sooo glorious to watch.

 

TeriYaki

  • What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim: I’ve only managed to finish the first episode but so far, I like what I’ve seen. Park Seo-joon thinks that he’s perfect but his secretary, played by Park Min-young, looks as if she’s the perfect one. Her resignation triggers a crisis for her egotistical boss, who is a clueless dunce when it comes to personal relationships. Watching Vice President Lee flail in front of Secretary Kim is more fun than I could have imagined. I was so happy to see Kang Ki-young as Park Seo-joon’s business partner, in what looks like a comic role. I’ve loved him since High School King of Savvy and getting the chance to catch his crazy laugh every week makes me want to tune in to this drama even more.
