The Episode Review

The Business Proposal episode was full of coincidences and forced romantic progress. I can’t help but feel that the show is relying too much on luck and coincidence.

The sweet sight of Tae-moo chasing eagerly after Ha-ri is amusing, but the romantic tension between the two feels a little flat. We don’t get to see much of Ha-ri’s perspective, which makes it difficult to invest in their relationship. ..

Despite their relationship not having nearly as much build-up as Tae-moo’s and Ha-ri’s, Young-seo and Seong-hoon have their own moment. A drunken first kiss, however, kills the romance of the scenario.

While this episode was riddled with errors, it does set up some interesting new dynamics between the two couples. It seems Tae-moo and Ha-ri have new people to fake a relationship for–Ha-ri’s friends–and that will make the task feel more intimate than before. ..
