Mulher Forte Kang Nam Soon (2023)

You can watch but don't expect to much.

Personally, I'm still enjoying some scenes in this drama despite some serious scriptwriting issues and I give this drama a big minus because of the scriptwriting.

I actually have no complaints about the side stories in SWDBS because there weren't many of them and they were all really fun characters, but in this drama, there's so much focus on other stories and too many side character stories that the writer neglects our main couple story.
Grandma's story is my favorite out of all of them. She has a lot of scenes but doesn't overshadow the main characters' stories, and her love life is seriously hilarious.

As for the main couple's love story, I'm neither a villain team nor a male lead team.
The writer appears to be forced to cram their love story into this investigative comedy drama. I'm still puzzled as to why the writer gave the villain to have some feelings for the female lead. Logically, he was not supposed to feel kind toward other people and certainly wasn't supposed to have put any trust in other people, since he was raised by other villains.

Regarding our NamSoon, I genuinely enjoy her outgoing nature. She loves herself and is an optimistic girl. It is unfortunate that her mother's story overshadowed her own because the author is overly fixated on the mother.

Anyway, I'm still looking forward to their third season. Despite the fact that there appeared to be less plot in season 1 than in season 2, the first season was a lot of fun. I just hope the writer writes better characters and a better script that focuses more on her main character's story.

Very entertaining, fast paced and not boring

I was hesitated to watch the prequel, although Im a big fan of the first sequel SGBS , the supernatural power and the fluffy sugary cute romance plot of the Park couple that made me adore that drama .
Im afraid here in prequel they might not do it right and it will only disappoint me. Maybe because the synopsis wasnt really appealing to me. But then again there goes the saying
"Dont judge the book by its cover" , this is exactly what i felt in the first 2 episodes of this drama. I was surprised how I really liked it! The cinematography is jaw dropping! The flow of the story is fast paced , very enjoyable to watch and there's no minute that i didnt enjoy nor bored , i actually really enjoyed it and these are just only 2 episodes.
Now it make sense why it just only came in in Netflix for 2 days now and it's already trending and it reached to top 10 # 6 in US Netflix today. I think i found my favorite show this year!!
Will update this review once i completed the drama.

Is it disappointing ? Yes but good

Okay to be honest if I watched till ep no 08 i would have given even better review but between the ep 09- 13 it was really hard if you ask they should have cut short those episodes.
The power was over the top but for its okay it's good until ep 8.
But last three episodes again so good not best better than all other episodes of the show.
Many say it's over the top and I agree but it's what you expect from this series i think wasn't much of a problem to me. Only problem we have three characters doing same silly use of power which made lot of cringe factors kick in.
I think main couple has same chemistry as orginal only problem they won't allowed to shine except they were using the villain which is also working but why ?
Problem will go on but as i said first half is good and finally three episodes is better middle part rough as going in desert if you don't dig in the villon because main point of the story and grandma love triangle which is by far is super hard to pass on.
I don't think acting as no problem every did there role better but seriously the production team or make up team as series problem on cloth choice they made sometime it horrible to watch the actor wearing those.
They made first episode epik and lost all intrest and made a too hard to fallow ( I mean in character wise) character story
Thank you for reading ?

Honestly, the beginning of this drama was amazing! I would rate it a 10 if i only saw like the first 2 episodes. It ultimately started to digress after ep 10. Nonetheless, it was an easy watch and extremely comedic.
The plot holes DID become more evident after ep 7, but nothing too bad to scare me away from the kdrama.

Overall, i think it was half decent! The actors were really good, and its such a fun watch! Anytime things got serious or scary, mc would whip out a joke.
Lighthearted drama, nothing too bad or too good, but i would recommend if you like comedic dramas!

First scenes aren’t canon.

5 minutes into the first episode and it already doesn’t work with the lore of the original. Did the creators forget that in the prequel both Bong Soon and her Mother lost access to their powers FOR USING THEIR STRENGTH FOR PERSONAL GAIN? Their super strength was to only be used in times of crisis and to protect/help others. Using it for a fighting tournament (like Bong Soon’s Mother) would have caused Nam Soon to lose her powers at an early age. Already a big no from me. This is obviously a somewhat poor attempt from netflix to reboot a series to easily pander to a fandom so they can just coast and not have to do any real marketing or advertising. BUT i will continue to watch to see how this series progresses.

Not as bad as many say

I know many have given very bad reviews for this drama. But after reconsidering my first impression, I would say if you fast forward certain cliche scenes where female lead ,her mother and her grandmother Flex their super powers you might very well able to enjoy this drama. This is not a sequel but a spin of mind you. I wish they um did not go to far showing superpowers off call the ladies. As it only added to cring. If they had
Toned down the showcasing of superpowers of female lead,Her mother and her grandmother. This would have been very much enjoyable as The original strong woman though bong soon. I must say few lines about Villain played by Woo Seok in this drama. I know he did very bad thing . But i kept thinking he was not like that from birth but the environment he grew up made him like that so even if he did evil things,I was feeling pity for him. I did not want so much tragic end for him. I know I should not Feel like that. But what can I do make handsome villains fate like that only in k drama. I was so impressed by the good looking villain that I i'm going to check his past and future works. So all in all just was forward The cringe scenes , and you are good to go.

It's an entertaining despite what others said

Entertaining drama. Okay nmn ang drama but of course Strong woman dobong soon is so much better. But it doesn't mean na iignore niyo ang drama nato. Kung hindi ka nmn mapili sa drama at gusto mo ng lighthearted at happy ending watch this.
- It's still enjoyable, I like this as comedic
- The lead chemistry(Namsoon and Hee Shik) is okay lang not great pero okay lang kase hindi talga focus masyado
- I like some of the cast and the acting seems good, I like the elders here in this drama
- C grandma at barista ang lalandi lagi ? umay haha, the parents are still care or in love despite divorce
- I love it na may guest appearance sina Kim Won Hae(yung bakla na may gusto ky min hyuk at nasa gang na laging bugbog sa hospital sa strong woman do bong soon), Park Hyung Sik
(Min Hyuk), at Park Bo Young(Do Bong Soon) :) - iba talga yung tawa ko sa strong woman do bongsoon parin.
- I like the team up of Namsoon kasama yung dalawang homeless friend nya (Hyun Soo at c No) nakakaaliw sila kaso ang konti lang
- I don't agree that Ryu Si-o should be forgiven like some said. Lol kahit na handsome sya or may soft spot kay Namsoon sa paningin ng iba masama parin ugali niya, marami pinatay, at di nagbago kaya deserve mapanagot. Kakaawa mga pinatay nya walang redemption arc is better. Mas kawawa pa c Hwa Ja/Myung Hee kesa sa kanya.
- I stille enjoy this drama kahit na medyo messy, not much ganap, still I find this lighthearted and okay

Stop overracting.

This drama is fine and everyone needs to calm down. I think the drama deserves to be judged on its own merits rather than as an extension of Strong Woman Do Bong Soon. That was that and this is this.

Despite that I do still think this drama is a bit of a mess, just not for the same reasons as most other people. The main problem is that this show has too many people in it. The audience is supposed to equally care about the ML and FL, the FL's family of 5, And the ML's coworkers and even the damn “villains” of the show. All of these people take up way too much time and steal the spotlight from the main couple.

I don't care what anyone says, I will scream my adoration for this couple from the rooftops. This is one of the best depictions of a loving, respectful and supportive relationship between two individuals who value each other deeply. They don't act that way because just because it tells them to or because the plot says its time. They do it because they get to know each other and develop genuine affection…
When the FL is having a hard time the ML helps her out because HE'S A NICE PERSON, not because he's attracted to her. She doesn't need to prove anything to him or have some special requirements for him to naturally want to care for her. The FL is a simple character who doesn't need to change much because she is already a good person as well. Her affection for the ML goes farther than his face, she loves his personality and pokes fun at it. Being good looking isn't enough to get her interested…

After all that I must say that I think Ryu Si-oh is one of the worst aspects of this drama. He is evil, regardless of his upbringing shaping him he chooses to create a drug that KILLS people.
(Honestly that doesn't even make sense, the whole point of drugs is to get people addicted so they become repeat customers, so I don't know why anyone would create a drug that kills the customer base UNLESS YOU'RE LITERALLY EVIL) Due to this I'm not hearing him or his shallow hastily put together backstory out. He would never have been interested in the FL if she weren't strong and he tried to kill the people she loved AND HER. Plus I objectively think the actor did not fit this role, he honestly was the odd one out in terms of acting ability… This was just the wrong role for this man period.


While I love the FL's mother and grandma, they and their issues/adventures get way too much focus and make the drama feel like it's dragging because you just can't bring yourself to care about what they're doing. Same goes for the FL's Father and brother… This isn't a palace drama, there is no need for more than like 6-7 MAIN characters.

This story is too messy and needs to get itself together. It wasn't the worst drama of 2023 like many are saying. Extra point for the cameo cuz they did not have to spend the money to do that, but they did.

Not SOOO Disappointing,Not SOO BAD.

First of all,i'm just seeing Very low rated reviews so i thought i should say something about this drama in a review.I'm actually rating it more than average but i know exactly why everyone is so disappointed at this show,i realized you have to shut off your brain and be in a particular state of mind to like this Drama! I also started watching it while ongoing and dropped after ep 7/8 and skipped many scenes later and just focused on Ryu Shi Oh (byeon woo seok was always my favourite) and finished it...That time i was actually very busy with my life and couldn’t afford to relate with the silly comedy scenes.

But what happened later was,in 2024 i mean in this year i was jobless and in a very Depressive state in early months so i thought i would just shut off my brain and watch something not-so-serious and started Re-watching Strong girl nam soon..& very surprisingly i quite loved it,the story was tight,but how It's shown has It's questions, they wanted to keep the show ''lighter'' but ended up being silly..but indulged in depression these silly comedies helped me to feel good actually ..The grandmother's love part was the only thing i couldn’t bear myself to watch but the rest of the cast actually did very very well..Ryu shi Oh's character, how It's written, how It's portrayed is SO good and sooo intriguing..(I miss this kind of well written villains' character in kdramas all the time).. Also, the ML & FL did well (FL has certain type of characteristics that people here on MDL really find annoying but that's actually how her character was written,naive,talkative,giving cutesy vibes)& she did good portraying that..the side plots were many and interesting too... ML's team members and related comedies were good.

I later searched on naver to see if it was popular in korea and not to my surprise, it was!! The ratings were good and it was well received by korean audiences.If you want to start this drama,start it,it is NOT THAT TERRIBLE, you might start loving it like me or end up falling hard just for the villain,just like everybody else.Happy Watching!

Kinda disappointed but okay

this is a good story but kind of disappointing tbh i expected a lot from it. This story picks up after the story of do bong-soon but we see more things that didnt imply there. So i was kind of confused at first scene but u gradually get the hang of it . I will not judge it too fast knowing i am only in ep 3. So i will tell all the things that i find will be helpfull for u to decide if u wanna watch it or not. First of all the scense are all same from the previous drama. The story if but some things like the characters dont match up.
So, it just went down from here. Im just excited for the plot cuz i feel like the plot will be nice.

i expected the show to a little collide with the previous show but it didnt and also the main couple is cute.i will write more abt what i think after finishing the whole thing.All this is just what i think abt this show. Hopefully the plot is really intresting i it is i will give it a musch more higher review.
