Introverted Boss (2017)

...

the production was good, I can't complain .
I also say that the performance was incredible, it would be a sin if I complained.

I love the actors, I loved the characters.

Of course, not everything is perfect, I can't lie, but what a drama that doesn't have a single flaw.

So in conclusion, I recommend...

I say it's worth watching, maybe it's bad for some, but for me it was good.

This is just my opinion, you better watch it and have your own opinion.

I don't know what to say, because I think everyone has their own opinion.

Good concept, after attempting to watch for the 3rd time, I liked it

I maybe biased because I am trying to watch this because of GGong Seung Yeon SY, but after watching her as lead in Are youHuman Too, My Only Love Song, and Flower Crew, it is hard to watch a drama I will only watch for secondary character. When there's nothing else to watch, I checked it agsin, 3rd try is a char. this out. I liked the main guy in Marriage Not Dating, and although in my opinion the lead in this show is prettier than the lead in Marriage, the FL in marriage is adorable, funny and her acting is really good just like GSY. When I saw the FL here in another show and movie, i decided to give this another go, and I loved it. Itnis funny, cringy and cute.

Let me start off by saying I didn't expect to love this drama the way that I did. It took awhile for it to really intrigue me. Like most people have mentioned, it wasn't until after the first few episodes where I found myself more invested in the story. Though I did enjoy the first few couple episodes despite some of the second hand embarrassment. But after recently watching the writer's previous drama, Marriage, Not Dating, I can see that's totally her style. lol

I found myself relating a lot to Eun Hwan Gi because I myself am a shy, introverted person. This is drama land so of course there's going to be some over exaggeration, but his inner monologues, having trouble speaking in front of large groups of people, avoiding social interaction, being able to notice small details, preferring to be by himself...that's what being an introvert person is. There may be some social anxiety mixed in his introverted personality as well which does happen. As for the black hoodie, they gave a reason as to why he started to wear it. So when you watch this drama, I wouldn't take the title too literally, but it makes sense why that's the title.

This is rare in dramas, but I pretty much liked every character. The cast had great chemistry and it was really fun and enjoyable to watch. The two leads were especially adorable to watch onscreen. They played off each other well. Opposites totally attract in this drama. Btw, I understand not all extroverted people come across as loud and annoying as Chae Ro Woon sometimes did, just as all introverted people are not all like Hwan Gi, but when you pair the two together, it kind of makes sense that you would see that play out a lot like how it did in this drama.

In spite of all this, I didn't particularly like a certain storyline. I felt like it wasn't a good enough reason to justify a certain someone's action. I think this drama was meant to be 20 episodes, so maybe when they did the rewrite it kind of screwed that part up a bit? But overall, I did enjoy this drama a lot and totally recommend it.

Also, the OST is 10/10! It's hard not to fall in love with every song you hear play throughout it.

I actually like this drama because how different it was compared to the other CEO dramas. Like the other ones had the same story lines you know the whole rich CEO douchebag who only cares about himself and the worker who tries to keep to herself and not draw as much attention to her. The rich CEO falls for her and tries to shower her with things blah blah blah or she falls in love first and tries to fix herself up for him blah blah blah. Yeah the roles are reverse in this one and I love it. The CEO is the shy one in this drama and the girl is extremely out going. They both have their reasons for wanting to get closer to one another but it gets tricky when your shy CEO is always running away lol All in all it's a very funny and cute drama to watch in between your serious ones or just in general.

Funny, emotional, quirky… all in one

After watching the flop of Only for Love, I wanted to see something different… not historical… and came across this one…
And what a difference! I was interested since the beginning..
This is a story about ACCEPTANCE… to others and to yourself…
I found it eye opener and powerful.

Eun Hwan Ki…. Has so many layers… basically more yhan meet the eye…. Kudos to Yeon Woo Jin… he did a very god job portraying the anxiety and frustration of not being able to express yourself, not being heard… I stayed glued to the screen really hoping for his happiness…
It broke my heart how he was treated by his father.. always compared to others, belittled… of course it was bound to happen to become closed off and alone…
How smartly he matched every team member to the right assignment to take them out of their comfort zone but in a good way… that is true leadership in the workplace… kudos to the writers for that!

He has so much to give… jeez… got me crying every episode…

Now, Chae Ro Woon.. is exactly what I expected.. too loud, too pushy, too much… I liked that the writers shifted her towards a more understanding, even emotional intelligent side… still sparky but with more essence and not only noise…
How the drama with the sister broke her life… that is so true…. The ones that are left behind are the ones that pay the price… even years after.
I liked her direct approach…. It was the ying to Hwan Ki’s yang….
(I find her different than other actresses…. I like her)

Quite a lot of funny moments… balancing the seriousness of the drama quite nicely..

Would I watch it again? Yes

More importantly and unexpected…. Got me thinking differently about whats going on inside the mind of an introvert…

Ni los clips promocionales ni los pósters coloridos hicieron que me atreviera a ver la serie Introverted Boss cuando aún estaba en emisión. Me daba la sensación de que apuntaba a ser una comedia romántica de manual. Hasta tuve el leve temor de que se mofaran de forma despectiva de aquellos que tenemos tantas dificultades para socializar. Sin embargo, no podía estar más equivocada. Si la serie brilla en rebeldía es gracias a la protagonista y su espontánea extroversión, y si se embriaga con matices grises es porque entra en escena el otro personaje estelar: un chico tímido, dueño de un corporativo de relaciones públicas (por herencia, más que por amor al prestigio), que sufre de un trastorno de ansiedad desde pequeño que lo tiene sumido en un estado permanente de estrés.

Siempre vestido de negro (para no resaltar entre la gente) y el gorro de la sudadera puesto sobre su cabeza (para protegerse del mundo), con una ansiedad anticipatoria que lo ahoga con descaro, una incapacidad para mantener contacto visual y ciertas situaciones que terminan por retumbar a sus pies y sacudir los cimientos donde levemente se sostiene su cordura. No podría identificarme mejor con algún otro personaje que haya conocido antes. Más de una vez tuve que detener el episodio para poder distanciarme de las sensaciones que superaban al joven y amenazaban con desembocar un ataque de pánico en mí (y en él, claro está). Pedazo de actuación, ¿eh? Introverted Boss vale la pena, más que por la trama en sí, por la adaptación tan soberbia que hace de las enfermedades mentales. El título se queda corto si tomamos en cuenta que el calvario que vive el chico no es timidez, ni mucho menos introversión, sino un trastorno de ansiedad crónico.

Más que la trama me he quedado por la personalidad del protagonista; porque es imposible no verme reflejada en él. Y porque los trastornos mentales, ya sea aquí o en Corea del Sur, siguen siendo un tabú tremendo que vale la pena continuar rompiendo hasta que hagan el ruido necesario para que los demás lo escuchen y comprendan, aunque nos duela tanto hacerlo.
