A 2019 Korean drama with Yoo In-na & Lee Dong-wook in the lead. Yoo In na in the 2014 drama ‘My love from the Star’,’Goblin’ in 2016-17 & now here in this show hasn’t aged a day!
Her pairing with Lee is the best. She was beautiful as Sunny in ‘Goblin’ & here she plays an actress away from the press & media. She is working as a secretary in a law firm, Always. Her boss is Lee. Very serious & hard working.
The pace is comfortable & their fears & joys are just there. After ‘Vincenzo’ may be I am finding it quite sweet.She makes room for herself as she helps him in the first case of the school girl who has collected money from her friends & is a liar.
As a trainee, she had been friends with a teen Kpop idol but she could not make the cut & gets kicked out. Desperation leads her to lie. The perpetual question of money, fame & lack of support from the parents. Aspirations with hard work doesn’t always work out. Plan ‘B’ has to be ready!
The actress herself is losing to her rival in her agency. I suddenly recollected ‘Fashion’ by Madhur Bhandarkar where name & fame are achieved overnight & lost as quickly. Kangana Ranaut was at her best. Priyanka Chopra got all the fame.
The glam & the glitz gets to the teens & they can aspire for fame, money but the picture of the slogging for hours that is required cannot be measured. Plus Lady luck doesn’t smile at everyone!
A simple, straight story with one of the best pairs in the industry. Fondly called as the Pichi couple. The side plots develop along the way effortlessly. A battery of actors that I shall introduce along the way.
