I'm so excited for this show!! Hehe, at least that’s how I see it going ~, I really want more flashbacks, and I think it would be fun if the writers decided to show us 3-6-9 milestones ~, The three-year cycles in relationships is an interesting proposition. This was a really great first episode. Also, the little sound effects remind me of "Witch's romance", which was my first encounter with PSJ and still a favorite of mine, so I love it!

Just in case we hadn't noticed that Vice Chairman Lee has a terminal case of Seja Syndrome. He goes to work tieless and in a terrible mood, stopping to glare at Mi-so’s empty desk before stomping into his office. I'm looking forward to all of Young Joon's brain spazz reactions and Mi So's sass. I found that small detail really interesting. Yoo-shik tells him that Mi-so is practically a saint for staying with him for nine years. 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. Yes!

When Mi-so says that the pay is good but Ji-ah will have no life, Young-joon asks her directly if all the hours she’s put in aren’t considered her life. I'm just going to strap on my parachute, holler "Geronimo!," and pull the ripcord. Go Geronimo! appId : '127538621120543', Mr. P. hates wearing neckties, and has worked in jobs that rarely necessitated that particular torture. I don't think he's head over heels in a romantic way, it's more that he just discovered she's the air he needs in order to keep breathing -- and she doesn't need him in that way, even though taking care of him has been her whole life. }(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); I didn’t realize how much I needed this show until I saw this first episode. Poor Young-joon looks exhausted in the morning, having stayed up all night wondering what Mi-so calls her nine years with him if not her life. Mi-so was so used to being called Biseo that she subconsciously wrote it down as her name. Park Min-young was terrific in SEVEN DAY QUEEN. js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js"; The 80s office decor cracks me up, especially how the rounded exterior of the building belies the angular interiors. It's almost as if she sees him as an annoying little brother? Since she is leaving her nine years of work-marriage, she looks so happy and relaxed. She gets out to stash the flowers in the trunk, and Young-joon congratulates himself for creating such a touching moment. I may compromise and do something new for the first time: just read your recaps. @lollypip Thank you so much for the recap!! }); Dating siblings. At most, they come off as a touch silly, or cliche. What made it seem sibling originally to me was that she seems to think that his behaviour is a bit... ridiculous? Bring it on!!! You will receive a link to create a new password via email. The teller clearly said Kim Biseo, and the hangeul on the check says that too. I dread that too. She says it’s fine, since they started pitching in eventually, and at least they didn’t cause trouble like their father, who borrowed money from a loan shark recently. agree with most of the beanies here that there is a lot of love on both sides.there was even an Omo moment when PSJ squared up to PMY and told her not to bring out his competitive side.there was definitely some history and awareness there,may be not conscious but real nevertheless.Can't wait to dive into the second EPs. and I was fully expecting him to say "Secretary Kim"…but instead he says "Kim Mi-So". Besides his trauma with women I think Mi So fulfills some of the roles of a significant other to him and maybe why he doesn't feel the need to date. Required fields are marked *. Come to think of it, she never had any bad roles, hasn't she? Indeed, I love the balance on Wed-Thursday nights btw drama and laughter is perfect. 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. But Dad spaces out, so Young-joon asks if there’s something he wants to say. And awww, he can’t even manage to tie his own tie. [Why Secretary Kim] ” Geo October 20, 2020 at 9:44 am. He is the perfect man after all... this drama is cute... it's enough with the OTP, the story is nothing new, but it's so CUTE! // Load the SDK asynchronously Yikes. Lee Young-joon is definitely modern prince material. Wow..That was the most funn-est 1sr episode I have seen so far in 2018.PSJ brings his quirky twist to the chaebol with cold heart trope but for me,PMY was the real showstealer.Her microexpressions were so on-point..maintaining the perfect bi-so face while letting us into her epic eye rolls It's going to take some doing on Young-joon's part to get her to see him in a different light. I love the subtle eye-rolls and little cracks of WTH expressions that she gave whenever Young Joon is being a narcissist brat. Provincias De Cochabamba. I too always had (have?) Young-ok huffs indignantly, and Mi-so escapes as soon as Se-ra looks away, ha. Your thoughtful comments (like this one) add so much to the discussion. It was so interesting. The only thing she doesn't do for him is sex and housework. The feminist in me is also intrigued by the setup of Miso's resignation. I’m so happy to see everyone again! It seems to me that she's laughing at him, which made it seem less motherly. Neither of them do. I am so relieved that I enjoyed the first 2 eps as I had been anticipating this drama so much. But I’m so glad that Young-joon and Mi-so had that talk… well, argument. I like how LYJ turn to PYS for advice, he need his friend.... @lollypip, you are the real VVIP. I, Lee Young-joon, will marry you.”. Se-ra pays close attention to how Mi-so makes Young-joon’s tea, assuming it will be her job once Mi-so is gone, because (she thinks) she’s the prettiest woman in the office. I’d never … Continue reading "What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim: Episode 8" He has got it in the second episode. But the past is … Continue reading "What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim: Episode 7" PSJ embodied the role perfectly and whilst I thought there would be a whole lot of cringing, I was surprised to see that I kept chuckling at his self-absorbed antics. PSJ and PMY are both great in their roles. She assures them that he loves himself too much to love anyone else, and that there’s nothing at all between them. What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim: Episode 15 by LollyPip Just because Young-joon and Mi-so are in love, doesn't mean their struggles are over, because romance is tricky enough to navigate when you don't also work together. Rich men of this period used makeup, had long hair and jewellery to rival women. She cares about him in the way anyone would care about someone they know and serve so intimately, but I can completely understand how his narcissism has kept her from falling for him. Their relationship has nine years of history, and that history has an effect on what is currently happening. He gracefully rests his chin on his hand, looking disturbed as he muses, “What’s wrong with her? He offers to help, but Young-joon quips, “You got divorced because you couldn’t.” Well, he’s not wrong. The 1st ep was incredibly enjoyable because we have a lead who isn't cold/borderline emotionally abusive but instead embraces his inner narcissist. What's Wrong With Secretary Kim: Episode 5 » Dramabeans Korean drama recaps Young-joon is bound and determined to convince Mi-so to marry him, but interestingly, he seems to be losing sight of his original purpose — to keep her as his secretary. ;). I already adore Young-joon’s hilarious arrogance. Just do it. She tells him her life has been all about work, so she wants to have time to herself. Im genuinely curious. I can't wait to actually see this. It's a double-good day in dramaland. fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); Boo hoo! So realistic and such a smart decision. . Yikes! Dad looks at Young-joon expectantly, hoping for a similar compliment, but Young-joon just tucks into his food, HA. ;-). 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. (WOK OF LOVE is the only other reasonable possibility, but I don't think that's the one.). Danger, Will Robinson! if (d.getElementById(id)) return; See. She’d aegyo’d that she came to the party to surprise him as he pulled her hand from his arm. However, do sleep longer if your body gives you the 'rest more!' It's overly personal. But he offers to make an exception for her, and even to promote her to director with her own assistant and company car. He's hilarious and really owns this character in all his selfishness and foolishness and has fun with it. Thank you for this, @lollypip!! 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 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. He’s upset because he can usually figure her out, but this time he has no clue what she’s thinking. @wishfultoki the balance of power is actually one of the reasons why I like this one so far. He has eliminated external emotions that would cloud his judgment. A verification email has been sent to your new email address. Did anyone else get that feeling? YJ's relationship with MS is pseudo-marriage of convenience: MS provides most of the services of a spouse but without any of the emotional cues and support. Jul 3, 2018 - This drama is unusual in that everything that happens in the present is informed by the past. What she wants isn’t simply marriage, but what it represents — love, freedom, and choice in how to live her life. Her long hair threw me off because I last saw her in Healer. He does comedy well in my opinion. But I love how you write and analyze characters, plots, and performances. Interesting theory, @lindag! Well, the sibling vibe was mainly after ep 1, the tie-scene was rather intimate. Just off the top of my head, she: Haha! What he fails to understand is that he’s missed Mi-so’s point entirely. I laughed out loud so many times during this episode and I am love with the main couple together and separately. I am soooo in love with this drama! 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. Regardless whether it is a love relationship, a marriage, or a professional relationship between a boss and his secretary, relationships ARE relationships. Young-joon definitely has some tangled feelings about their relationship that he doesn't even recognize. It's her reaction to his antics that made me like this dramas from the start. For the non-Korean speakers, miso means "smile" in Korean. And I kinda like the subtle hints of the issue of “burnout” in relationships. Also, why he is confused as to why she doesn't consider her time with him as having a life. 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. Mi-so is at home, her hair down and wearing comfy clothes. They're ... extra-human? and Mi-so's predicament of feeling that she has lost sight of herself are in perfect counterbalance. The thought of childhood connection via shared trauma dims my joy about this show... At least we don’t have to worry about any potential mother/father-in-law terror. Maybe it is the same sound engineer who is releasing his stress from working on My Ajusshi. I thought Mi-so wanted to leave right after she finally managed to pay all her father’s debts. Thanks Lollypip! if (d.getElementById(id)) return; I really hope the show continues to offer such an in-depth look at our characters' identity and how they're shaped by the roles in their lives. I love how these two really have taken to their characters with Park Min-young as the capable and confident Mi-so and Park Seo-joon has the irritatingly arrogant, densely un-self-aware, yet still endearing Young-joon. The first two episodes had us hooked already and we are sharing with you what we loved after watching those two episodes, *cough* besides the abs of … I love that the leads are both SO in-sync and yet also on a completely different wave-length, leaving their relationship with so much room for development/fleshing out. He keeps going, extravagantly offering to pay for her personal expenses and family debts, not to mention that she’d still have the world’s most perfect boss. js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js"; The series aired on tvN from June 6 to July 26, 2018, on Wednesdays and Thursdays for 16 episodes. I hope they keep it light, but they're already hinting at a dark history.

FB.init({ She says that he needs to find a new secretary because she’s quitting, and Young-joon looks at her in disbelief. Mi-so tells Young-joon indulgently that not everyone can be as perfect as him, and he chuckles in agreement. His proposal of marriage was not for love, but as a means of keeping MS as his secretary. Inhumane working hours is definitely a common problem in Korea, but when I saw the lengths Miso was going through for Youngjoon, the first thing that popped into my mind was "emotional labour". Mi-so explains that they’re things Young-joon occasionally needs, but her friends suddenly look uncomfortable and judgmental. What makes her thick? Whoa, that escalated quickly. I hope the nice, normal guy gets seriously in the running Let Mr. I just wonder how much insight we might get into their past. I wouldn't be surprised about there being a Hansel and Gretel kind of moment in their past. I look forward to seeing him hitting rock bottom and rising up again a better person. I can't wait to see how the show takes us there. It looked just like innumerable sageuk scenes of kings and nobles being dressed by their attendants. Secretary Kim… what’s wrong with her?”. I worry that there's some Fate thing involving Mi-So and Young-Joon in that spider-phobia storyline. I have so many questions right now and even more after watching ep 2 LOL. Yes, I’ve been waiting with you!! :) "It’s going to be awkward and weird and adorable, and I can’t wait." - - - - me too!!! Thank you! Sekretaris adalah Kim Mi Soo, datang bekerja untuknya. I think the two leads are great in their roles so far and have a nice chemistry. 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. version : 'v2.2' // use version 2.2 xfbml : true, // parse social plugins on this page Less confidently, she says that she’s twenty-nine, so she wants to start thinking about getting married, and Young-joon head-tilts at her in confusion. Not too familiar with Park Seo Joon but he is cracking me up with his campy portrayal of Young-Joon, hah! But he just tells her to push back his afternoon meeting and that he’ll eat lunch at home. I'm barely half-way through this first episode but it certainly looks like it is going to be a lot of fun! I loved the lead couple’s dynamic from five minutes in - our two lead actors did a great job of convincing me of their characters’ rapport and history almost instantly. The second ep only gets better. Feelings are involved (at different levels of course). She shows Young-joon the ring she wears on her left hand to ward away unwanted suitors, and Young-joon smiles his satisfaction. A K-drama first, with the exception of that drama-within-a-drama in Go go Waikiki. Mi-so laughs her butt off when her sisters decide that Young-joon must like her, since he’s always buying her shoes and clothes and even a car.
