A romcom gem

If you’re looking for a short, fun and well executed rom-com then this is the show for you.
Recently I’ve been watching a lot of kdramas that are emotional and can be difficult to watch mentally, however ‘A Business proposal’, was the complete opposite.

First off this drama is absolutely hilarious somtimes I find it difficult to laugh at kdramas because so many are not my type of humour but this show surprised me. The special effects are probably my favourite from any drama I’ve watched and it really gave the show character. It’s full of cliches but the effects were definitely something that made the show unique. Like I said before the show is very cliche, stereotypical and full of tropes that are common in the world of kdramas but that doesn’t take away from how good the execution was.

The characters were great as well as the acting. Hari was a very likeable and Taemoo wasn’t typically mean, like male characters usually are in Boss-employee relationships. Sejeong is a great actress and I’ll definitely look out for her future shows. In terms of chemistry they were okay, sometimes I did find their kiss scenes a little awkward but it didn’t take away from how cute of a couple they were. On the other hand, the second couple definitely stole the show in terms of chemistry and I loved their storyline which didn’t drag at all.

Now, there were a few things I didn’t enjoy. The idea of Taemoo not recognising Hari and Geumhui were the same person was silly, although that storyline didn’t drag on for too long. Also the story about the pervert and Young Seo clearly effected by it wasn’t taken as seriously. I do understand that the show is a comedy and the light hearted element probably would have disappeared. But that storyline should have been handled with a bit more care. Yongseo was self conscious about using the toilet after being watched for days unbeknownst to her and then that was it. It would have been nice seeing how she handled overcoming that difficult situation. The last few episodes for me were maybe a little bit more draggy and boring and different from the previous fast paced episodes. I still enjoyed them but I just wasn’t as hooked. I do also think the second couples engagement was a little quick.

Despite me being pedantic and picking a few negatives the show was very enjoyable!! It was definitely a comfort show for a lot of people and a great form of escapism. It was light hearted, exciting and a breath of fresh air. Some times it’s okay to enjoy a drama that isn’t overly dramatic with important relevant themes and that is very simple. It really made me enjoy Mondays and Tuesdays.

I recommend this drama for people who want to watch something short and sweet.

nonsense

complete nonsense. good actors with bad acting. full of cliches. unbearable. the show had a unrealistic plot and a whole lot of coincidences. predictable story. the sheer amount of dumbness of the main characters showed was mind-boggling. complete drag . unbelievable how many people still like this kind of nonsense.. love the actors who were casted but I don’t think the roles fit them. I generally thought Hari and Taemu were so annoying during the entire show. completed the show for Ahn Hyo Seop

cliche mushy story with no plot

cold ceo? check
fluffy fl? check
ml with traumatic childhood? check
ml chases fl? check
parent objection on marriage? check


started off decent with the concept but became "that" contract relationship story in no time. the leads were cute and had chemistry, thats the only reason it was bearable. ngl i skipped a couple episodes of the second half cuz it was becoming way too cringe but i would be lying if i say i didnt have fun watching the other parts.
ig its nice to mindlessly watch something to just chill. MINDLESSLY.
even tho there was that spark, i wish the context was more passionate for romantic moments, somehow they just didnt hit the right spot. definitely overrated.
this review is all over the place so just watch it if u got nothing else to do, you'll have a couple laughs and aww's

The classic Romcom cliché, AKA our guilty pleasure!

I was not planning on writing a review but looking at all the hate against the cast and show, it feels like a necessity on my part.
A business proposal is a typical romcom with so many clichés. But what’s the problem with clichés? We all love some sweet romance and some REALLY good laugh! I wouldn’t call this drama a breath of fresh air but instead a feeling that takes us back to home. Watching this reminds me of kdramas from 2016-2018! It’s lighthearted, not so complicated, not dragged and well written at a perfect pace.
The plot is again, cliché but well written. 12 episodes are absolutely perfect for such a plot as it is not dragged at all and keeps us entertained throughout! The writer has tried to mislead us by putting in the typical romcom clichés and misunderstandings to only end them with a good laugh for the viewers. It’s not complicated and takes us on a trip filled with laughter and romance! The bromance, sismance, and romance are all a *chef’s kiss*! Both the parings are so perfect.
Now let’s start with our leads, Kang Tae Moo and Shin Ha Ri!
KTM has all the possible CEO qualities! Handsome, sexy, rich, appears to be cold but is not and of course, our beloved narcissist! His presence in the entire show is what makes it fun for us to watch.
As for SHR, she’s honestly one of the most loveable characters I’ve come across! Effortlessly funny, BEAUTIFUL, kind, caring and a great friend. Watching her is one of the best parts of the show! Kim Se Jeong has done a great job portraying SHR’s character!
Now for the leads chemistry, it’s spot on! Their personalities mesh so well. One of the admirable things about them is how they don’t become cringe with their over sweetness when they’re dating. They keep it real so it’s not a pain to watch 2 adults in love! So there are a few awkward scenes between them which is why I’ve voted the cast as a 9.5 instead of 10 but that’s mostly the camera angles! So it’s not really the actor and actresses fault.
Now as for the second couple,
SIA has done such a marvellous job in pulling off Jin Young Seo’s character! She, like her best friend, is effortlessly funny, a hot chaebol, sassy, smart and kind. The sismance between her and SHR is one of the best things about this drama!
As for Kim Min Gyu, he’s been pulling off all his recent characters with literal perfection. He’s so hot, mysterious, caring and once again, SO HOT. His affection and respect for KTM is so adorable. He may appear to be rude but he’s just being straightforward lol
Now for JYS and CSH’s chemistry- I think “sizzling” is the only way to describe it. Both their personalities collide only to form a bold power couple! I must say, their story will NOT disappoint you! And watching them drunk is literally the best!

The music is honestly so refreshing and pleasant! Love it!

As for rewatching, I’ll definitely be rewatching it soon! After watching those dark and thriller dramas and the bittersweet endings, this is something I need!

Overall, I highly recommend it to everyone! Do give it a go, you might end up loving it.

A RIDE LIKE NO OTHER

Expressing my love for this rare Masterpiece.

I've never written a review before. bla bla bla ... ..... , You already know this is a serious business proposal.

kdrama proposal:
1. Some serious business is about to start
2. Perfect casting
3. No dragging
4. No dragging
5. Refined clichés (a lot of)
6. Intensity
7. remarkable comedy
8. Serious plot holes when necessary
9. No supporting osts to make it better.
10. Original kdrama
11. Nostalgic
12. No more
Kdrama proposal? More like A business proposal to me.

It touches every possible k-clichés, And it does it with a touch of really good comedy, an unbeatable pace and a less awkward presentation. As It took me back to 2015 through 2018, It reminded me of the "real" kdramas which made me an addict I am today. We need this kind of refreshers every year to cope with the modern trend of deviation ,aka internationalization, ffs.

How it handled multiple complicated situations which would take episodes in other dramas. How it dealt with the trauma without dragging it with hints and making a big deal out of it to the extent of making the audience uncomfortable.

It's the only drama which I just had to repeat too many scenes over and over before and after finishing many of the episodes. It took me more than 2 hours to finish some episodes all due to repetition and interaction with it's remarkably active fanbase to project my happiness. It was an experience to remember.

I keep asking myself how do you come up with such perfect casts? Every single cast was just so good that you can't picture someone else in that role. I loved all likeable characters. I never liked, nor understood the two unlikeable characters.

Perfect Drama to relieve your stress and lift your spirits

Completed - 4/5/2022 - 8.75

I am liking the current K-drama trends of having only 12 episodes instead of the long-drawn out, draggy 16-episode drama format. This is especially true for comedies and romantic comedies. This drama is perfect if you want something light and funny, and a palate cleanser after watching something serious/tragic.

Setting/Plot - Personally, I am a big fan of the contract marriages and enemies-to-lovers tropes. The setting of this drama is right up my alley. Moreover, I also purchased dumplings from Bibigo and many other packaged Korean foods from my local K-mart. So, seeing FL being a food researcher and have that as the backdrop is interesting to me. There are many common rom-com tropes and cliches in this drama. But for the most part, the drama surprises us with not going along with the usual directions of these tropes. The drama also makes fun of these tropes/cliches by using the TV show within the the drama. It's so refreshing to see.

Likable characters - We have four very likable leads. You find them funny and sweet, and you root for their career and relationship success. ML might first appear as the classic narcissistic CEO. There are many comparisons of him to the ML in "What's Wrong with Secretary Kim". I actually like Kang Tae Moo here a lot more. His narcissism didn't really last long and he turns sweet quite soon in the series. The ML in WWWSK actually is a lot more annoying. Our two female leads have a great sismance, and are so supportive of each other. They are both independent and funny, and did not bow down to road blocks and challenges in life. Last but not the least, who doesn't like the dimples of our sweet 2ML and his kind character.

Romance - Our main leads have great chemistry, especially before they are officially an item. Once they are together, the sizzling chemistry changes to something sweeter. It's hard to find a rom-com where the secondary romance is just as interesting and fun as the main romance. There's just enough screen time for our 2ML/2FL to develop their romance, not overshadowing the main romance, and yet not so insignificant that we wish they don't exist. The two romance storylines co-exist really well in this drama and I am invested in both of them. In a way, they contrast each other pretty well: love at first sight vs slowly developed romance, theme park dates vs hiking dates, rich ML vs rich 2Fl, sweet romance vs hot/steamy romance. Additionally, we got amazing kisses in this drama with both couples. No fish kisses and the ladies also initiate kisses.

Tragic Past done well - It's not hard to guess that ML's tragic past will be part of the plot. I was initially concerned that this subplot will dampen the mood of this super funny drama. I immediately thought of how the ML's tragic/family story in "Her Private Life" is the weakest part of that otherwise amazing sweet rom-com. Fortunately, it didn't happen here. It was not dealt in a melodramatic way, but in a sweet way demonstrating how FL supports ML. The drama didn't drag this for several episodes. Instead, just several sweet scenes with flower shopping, lovely dinners and umbrellas, and a few heart-to-heart sweet conversations.

OST - lovely songs especially from MeloMance. The drama also incorporates some comedy-like noises during funny scenes.

Supporting Cast - Usually I would be annoyed with someone like 2FL's cousin. She is loud and overdramatic but for this drama, I found her hilarious. I love her craziness and her use of English in between her Korean words. Maybe I am in such a good mood enjoying this drama that she becomes tolerable and funny to me. However, others may be annoyed. Same goes to FL's mother and FL's male co-worker. They are both really loud and can be either funny or annoying.

Ending - I think the last episode is somewhat predictable. In a way, I am a tiny bit disappointed as it falls into the classic rom-com tropes. I don't want to give out spoilers, so let's just say the last episode is average compared to other episodes.

Overall, I haven't had so much fun watching a romantic comedy in a long time. I rarely give out a 9.0 to rom-coms, but I am feeling good and also in the right mood, especially while I am also watching "The Longest Day in Chang'An".

Other Observations:
1. Ahn Hyo Seop has really big hands. But why are they ALWAYS so red???
2. Hairstyle changes when you are not a narcissistic CEO anymore. AHS looks so much better when his bangs are down and not in hair gel.
3. Kim Se Jeong has such a BEAUTIFUL voice!
4. Here's a duet with Kim Se Jeong and Ahn Hyo Seop singing "Love, Maybe". So good! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FemG1XPyvNI
5. I have those Bibigo dumplings in my freezer right now! Shown on TV in the last episode. LOL

comédie charmante, sur un thème bateau mais qui navigue joyeusement en évitant les écueils !

Eh bien, j’ai vraiment aimé ce drama qui se joue (un peu !) des codes de la romance habituelle ! Si on a bien l’héritier riche et la fille du restaurant de poulet, les personnages se différencient des clichés psychologiques habituels. La fille riche est drôle, intelligente et pleine de bon sens, l’employée n’a rien de l’héroïne chichiteuse à laquelle les dramas/romance nous ont habituées. La psychologie des héros garçons s’est elle aussi améliorée, et l’héritier fait montre rapidement de l’originalité de ses goûts en matière de mariage ! Le grand-père chaebol est plutôt sympathique et assez marrant ! Les deux tiers ont été vraiment agréables à suivre, on ne s’attarde pas indéfiniment sur les rebondissements et Dieu merci on échappe au traditionnel « je-t’aime-mais-je-te-quitte » car les personnages ont assez de bon sens pour ne pas y tomber ! Cependant j’ai trouvé les derniers épisodes plus faibles, l’opposition du grand-père paraissant tout-à-fait artificielle (il devrait voir un ophtalmo, ne pas avoir reconnu Ha Ri !! ). De plus la toute fin est un peu en queue de poisson, tant qu’à faire de la romance, autant aller jusqu’au bout et j’aurais bien aimé un peu plus de détails sur le côté concret (réaction du milieu des affaires, des employés de la boîte, des parents de Ha Ri, et surtout leur rencontre avec le grand-père !
Mais il semblerait qu’il y aurait une deuxième saison, donc ça expliquerait cette fin !
En tous cas c’est un joli drama, un bon moment à passer sans pour autant sombrer dans la cucuterie intégrale ! Les acteurs sont très bons, particulièrement les femmes !! les dialogues aussi, c’est léger et drôle, et je le recommande pour se distraire d’une actualité désolante !

should you really watch this?

this show is insanely overrated. the actors and acting overall is good, but it’s your generic rom-com filled with cliches from every kdrama. imo, this is just a walmart ver. of WWWSK.

this kdrama is wholesome and filled with cute moments, but everything was predictable. the characters lack depth, with one-dimensional personalities that fail to develop meaningfully throughout the series. the narrative, rather than offering unique twists, relies heavily on tired tropes, making it a dull experience for viewers like me who watch rom-com. overall, this kdrama struggles to stand out in any way, which is why my rating is so poor. i don’t recommend watching unless you like this type of kdrama.

sebenernya premis a business proposal ini klise banget. udah ada puluhan drama yang mengusung ide cerita macam ini; penyamaran dalam kencan buta, berakhir dengan pacaran sama sajangnim. kayak semua-muanya udah bisa ditebak banget deh.

nilai plus untuk drama ini adalah visual efeknya! gila sih kalo ngebayangin seberapa lama proses post-production mereka. episode awal sampai pertengahan rame banget, ngga ganggu sama sekali justru malah bikin ngikik. salfok juga sama bunga sakura yg berguguran di episode terakhir, itu juga kayaknya editan ya? wkwkwkwk.

terus juga sebenernya ngga jarang acting main couple di sini tuh awkward gitu. tapi untungnya awkward mereka itu ngga setengah-setengah, jadi keliatannya kayak yang sengaja gitu, bikin tetep enak ditonton karna jatohnya kocak wkwkwk. karakter harabeoji sama kawan-kawan satu timnya shin hari juga seru-seru pol!

overall gue suka; tipikal drama yang ngasih sensasi cringe geli geli menghibur gitu.

A Business Proposal (2022) - A Surprisingly Enjoyable Romcom

As someone who isn't typically drawn to the drama genre, particularly the cliche romcoms, I approached "A Business Proposal" with skepticism. I've often found such narratives overwhelming and predictably formulaic. However, much to my surprise, this particular drama managed to captivate my interest. I must admit, my initial attraction was rooted in my admiration for Kim Sejeong, but as the story unfolded, I found myself pleasantly engaged by the overall quality of the production.

What struck me most about "A Business Proposal" was its ability to breathe new life into a genre that often feels stagnant. While it adheres to the conventions of a typical romantic comedy, it manages to do so with finesse. There were moments when the drama did tend to lean into the familiar tropes, causing a slight sense of overwhelm. However, this is forgivable in a genre where adherence to a formula is almost expected.

The heart of any romantic comedy is the chemistry between its lead characters, and "A Business Proposal" doesn't disappoint in this regard. The acting is commendable, with Kim Sejeong and her male lead, Ahn Hyo Seop, delivering convincing performances that make you root for their characters. Their on-screen connection is palpable, and it's this chemistry that carries the story forward.

While the plot may not break new ground, it manages to weave in enough twists and turns to keep viewers engaged. The narrative progression, despite its predictability in places, maintains a steady pace that ensures you won't get bored. Moreover, the dialogues are witty and the humor is well-timed, adding an extra layer of charm to the story.

The music selection complements the scenes effectively, setting the mood and enhancing the emotional impact of pivotal moments. Additionally, the cinematography is visually pleasing, making the most of the picturesque settings to create a beautiful backdrop for the unfolding romance.

In summary, "A Business Proposal" is a surprising gem within the world of cliche romantic comedies. It doesn't shy away from its genre's conventions but, rather, embraces them with a sense of self-awareness that makes it all the more endearing. It might have moments of overwhelm and predictability, but it's an undeniably sweet and enjoyable drama. When it comes to cliche romcoms, this show is about as good as it gets, offering a delightful blend of chemistry, humor, and a touch of charm that will leave you with a smile on your face.

Good Enough

Korean Drama "The Business Proposal" has definitely an old Korean drama feel to it. The romance is light and fluffy, there are enough funny moments between the couple, there is no love triangle, rather, a cute second couple, and there are plenty of trops that were enjoyable to watch.

The leading actress, in addition, does a great job with her character and she is another reason to watch this drama for her delightful performance. The rest of the cast gives nice performances as well, but not as energetic as hers. The colors and the whole atmosphere of the drama are bright and light as well.

Unfortunately, the series goes downhill towards the ending. The trops feel more and more stale and the story gets boring, to the point when the second couple was probably the only reason to keep watching.

So, overall, 5 out of 10, as the first half was fun, but the second part not so much.

Boring!!!!

Okay, I watched this because of the funny clips I saw. But, it stopped being funny after episode 5. I blazed through the rest just to get through it. I can't believe how overhyped this is. I'm sorry, I would've never considered it bad if that nonsense in the last episode hadn't happened. It was actually somewhat watchable even until ep11, despite me fast forwarding it just to feel something. I could've given it a solid seven if that whole "going away and coming back" nonsensical thing didn't happen. I just can't believe the rate at which people talk about this when the only thing it has going for it is the looks of the people involved and funny one liners from someone they didn't even bother to give an ending to?

Seriously, let's raise our standards from this boring, overdone crap.
