Kim Jae Wook indeed impressed us in the 2019 K-drama, ‘Her Private Life’ co-starring Park Min Young, and he is back with another office romance! A love story between the self-made narcissistic CEO of a company and an introverted and diligent secretary— sounds like a cliché until we come to know about the interesting part! While Noh Go Jin, the rich CEO, pretends to have amnesia after getting threats of murder, his secretary Lee Shin Ah pretends to be his would-be wife when she discovers that she is going to die soon.
However, their personalities are polar apart. While he is known for his handsome face, intelligence and confidence, she is quiet and almost non-existent. The synopsis seems to be unique with the rom-com as well as tragic vibes. Guess we need to watch it make a judgment.

Song Kang and Park Min Young together, as a couple, in a noona romance, what else do we need!
