Cute, charming actors... relatively satisfied with their performance.
The story itself had a few flaws, but it's nice for a change that the female is strong enough not to be pulled by her wrist.
Well, good to past time when you have nothing else to watch. I don't know what but something is missing

The story is not that great actually. However, I do like the idea of DBS who is a strong woman and it is focused on women empowerment. I just don't like how there are scenes that is actually not needed in the second half of the drama, makes me feel like the writer got lazy on making surprising and unique scenes, there are also cliche outcomes on some scenes, that's why I already expected what is going to happen and it really did. The gang scenes are funny at first but in the second half of the drama, it is pretty annoying now. But other than that, the last 2 episodes had a great improvement. I just wanted unique that can make the viewers go "WOW!". There are some gay jokes that is a bit offensive but some of it are funny. The funny scenes really made me laugh out loud though and some scenes made me cry. What I love the most are the couple scenes. They are so cute and they have a great chemistry. When it comes to the cutest couple, it goes to DBS and AMH. I would've wished that they minimize the gang scenes and focus more on the couple and the thriller scenes.
I love their acting! I love the chemistry of Park Bo Young and Park Hyung-sik. It felt like they are couples for real that their acting is so natural. THANK YOU FOR PAIRING THEM. Park Bo Young is the cutest woman alive and Park Hyung-sik's smile and stare is so adorable, cute and charming! Other casts did so well at acting too.
Some songs are cute, some songs are great, some songs are not memorable.
I would rewatch for the 2nd time, but if I can watch for the 3rd time and so forth, I would skip some scenes that are not needed. I just can't help but watch the cute couple!

The cute moments sometimes seemed like they were coming out of nowhere, which made the blossoming of the romance feel a bit out of place. That was made worse by the love triangle, that was installed, but barely used (waaaaeee?)
By focusing on too many plotlines with very different genres, the writers made it difficult to get into the story and I ended up finishing the drama by skipping most of the scenes.
I was also really annoyed by the underlying homophobia in this drama. I understand that homosexuality is a taboo subject in Korea and LGBT people aren't easily accepted by their peers yet. But I found the lame jokes and ridiculous portrayal of gay men simply embarassing to watch (and not funny at all).
The competitive relationship between the male leads was fun to watch, but the love triangle was forgotten quite quickly, as Gook Doo got absorbed in the "crazy criminal" plotline.
The setting of the drama got me really excited at first (Ainsoft / video game making), but it didn't add much to the story in the end, which wasalso a bit of a waste.
All that being said, I thought the two leads were really cute and I did enjoy their scenes together (lots of fluff!). They made a really lovely couple and their cuteness is what made me finish the drama, even though I wanted to drop it.
Basically, I believe this drama could have been a great rom/com, if the numerous plotlines and inconsistency in the story hadn't messed it up. If you love cheesy romance and don't mind the messy writing / not always tasteful humour, you'll probably enjoy it.

Sweet... but wait... that doesn't make sense
What a sweet ending.This show felt like two (sometimes three) different shows in one. The romance stuff was very cute and our leads definitely had chemistry and it was just fun to watch them interact and fall in love. Then there was the crime/thriller part which I thought was done really well in the beginning parts but really fell off at the end. Then we had the comic relief, the storylines with the high schoolers and the construction guys (which I skipped through majority of the time and the story was still intact), they just felt really irrelevant and they tried so hard to include them.
My issues:
- At one point I thought her mother was an abuser and I didn't second guess it because of how hostile she's been written. So when they revealed that she didn't actually hit her husband (and her friends even thought she hit him) it was brushed over. I would've liked a bit more unpacking as to why we as an audience and why her friends thought she was capable of that.
- Her powers made no sense. She protected her friend from something that was going to hurt her. How was she suppose to know that there was an innocent man on the elevator. It just seemed unfair that she lost her powers for something that was out of her hands. And adding on, how come her children's powers weren't taken away when they punched innocent people?
- I think we could've done with less of the side characters.
- The tonal shifts were weird and off. We went from girls being kidnapped to the leads being all cute to the comic relief. They needed to sit and build on one aspect before moving on to the next.
My favourite:
+ The leads and their chemistry. They felt playful and comfortable with each other which made me believe the very fast progression of their relationship.
+ That one song about love.
+ Mr Ahn's assistant and his facial expressions.
+ The crime/thriller part. The actor who played the bad guy was actually quite good and scary at times (except at the end). He felt like he could've been a suspect from Criminal Minds.

This show is dog shit
This show is so bad and I don't understand why it has such a high rating. The main couple is cute if a bit dull the main dude is a bit annoying though she is pretty great. I was sold that this show was cute rom com with main character that has super powers and she would fight against antagonist of the week type thing never did I think it would be a serial kidnaper who kidnapped women tortured them who was also causally fatphobic too. Tone wise it just doesn't go together and feels really weird and off the entire show and the comedy. Slapstick comedy is rarely funny and especially poop jokes it the bottom teir of comedy and probably a 12 year old boy if you enjoy it. All around a pretty terrible show.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

And honestly too many episodes! Most episodes had a whole lot of nothing going on and they just kept dragging the story showing a lot of unnecessary scenes with the thug guys..and most of those comedic scenes weren't even funny tbh.
I only liked the romance and the OST. The romantic storyline itself was a mess and honestly quite unrealistic lol but the 2 leads had good chemistry and they looked cute together. I think that's the only reason why I watched this drama till the very end and why I'm atleast giving it a 3/10 instead of 1/10. And Park Hyung Shik looks cute lol..
But it's definitely an overrated drama imo..

The story was quite intriguing from the get go, romance was ADORABLE and that dash of mystery really kept things interesting throughout its course. Also, the fact that there was little to no 'second lead syndrome' was very well appreciated.
Now for each category:
STORY:-
As I've already said, the story was quite interesting and it's unlikely for you to get bored at any point of this drama. There were a lot of characters (like A LOT) and multiple sub plots, which could have ruined the watching experience but luckily the execution was amazing. All the supporting characters had their own thing going and you would end up Loving them just as much as our cute main leads. This drama also had one of the most smoking hot baddie ever (you will end up stalking that guy on Google, for sure) but yeah he was pretty trashy yet interesting character.
ACTING/CAST:-
The acting of almost all the cast members exceeded my expectations.
Park Hyun sik as the super cocky chaebol, Ahn Min hyuk, with the heart of gold had me smittened. He was also so genuinely unabashed about his feelings for bong soon I mean it's just awwwwwww!!!!
Park Bo young was probably the perfect person to play our cutie pie, Bong soon, with hulk-like strength! She was the perfect mix of innocent and badass and you can't help but root for her.
Ji soo as and I quote bong soon "handsome Guk doo" gave an impressive performance and his face offs with minhyuk contributed to some of the major LOLs of the show
Special mention to Won-hae Kim, Jeon Seok-ho and Im Won-hee who played some of the most pivotal roles, without them the show would not have been the same.
MUSIC:-
This is my absolute favourite part of this drama!! All the songs are so well-suited to the premise and I don't think I'll ever get tired of them. The entire ost is currently my most played playlist on Spotify and that ain't changing anytime soon?
REWATCH VALUE:-
You can watch it a million times without getting bored. I find myself going back to the same comic or romantic scenes again and again.
Overall it is one of the best light hearted/mystery dramas out there and trust me you won't regret spending your precious 16 hrs on this particular gem.
HAPPY WATCHING!!

Storyline: strong girl protects - crazy female hating villain - crush /CEO love triangle. Two NON-related stories in one and never could figure out WHY and purpose of crazy hating villain - NO connection at ALL to story.
Cast: Leads were convincing and entertaining - nothing noteworthy
Music: never paid any attention
Overall: The lead female was far too silly and naive for ANY adulting nonetheless a HS relationship. This character showed no signs of development for 16 eps. The male leads displayed more development which is really rare in dramaworld. Watch knowing this is just mindless and rather blerg. Setting the bar fairly low.

Cute but overhyped
This has been on my watchlist for an really long time and I finally got around to watching this, and I’m sorry to say that it was quite disappointing. The only good thing throughout the show is the adorable romance between the leads and the ML gushing over the FL. Apart from the romance, there’s quite a dark subplot which I felt that started off well, but as the story progressed it gets all over the place and the last five episodes are such a drag. The drama consistently jumps between light and dark and it feels a little discerning.There were also plenty of problematic things which I felt were passed off as humour — to start with: the entire focus on the lead being gay, or the stereotypical way in which the LGBTQ community was represented, almost always being the end of slapstick humour. I also didn’t appreciate how the FL’s mom’s abuse towards her family was passed off as humour, it wasn’t funny at all.
To sum it up, without the extremely wholesome fluffy chemistry between the leads, there isn’t much to love about Strong Girl Bong Soon. Majority of it feels like a filler after a point, especially towards the end.
