6 K-Dramas To Watch If You Miss “My Bias, My Boss”

“My Bias, My Boss” is over after 12 episodes, and it feels way too soon to say goodbye to Nam Da Reum (Kim Hye Jun), Kang Ha Gi (Kang Hoon), and Lee Chan (Cha Woo Min). While no other K-drama has the sunshine yet strong-minded female lead being the center of affection of her bias and her boss, there are plenty of dramas that explore tropes and dynamics that made “My Bias, My Boss” so unforgettable.

So, whether you already miss seeing Kim Hye Jun, Kang Hoon, and Cha Woo Min on your screen or are simply craving an idol x female lead romance, an office romance, or a messy love triangle, here are six K-dramas to add to your watchlist.

“Lovely Runner” – if you loved the idol x female lead trope

6 K-Dramas To Watch If You Miss “My Bias, My Boss”插图

Adapted from the web novel “The Best of Tomorrow” by Kim Bbang, “Lovely Runner” revolves around Im Sol (Kim Hye Yoon), a devoted fan devastated by the sudden death of her favorite K-pop idol, Ryu Sun Jae (Byun Woo Seok). While rushing to find out whether the news is actually true, she unexpectedly travels back in time to 2008, where she meets the 19-year-old Sun Jae long before he becomes a star. With a second chance to change the future, Im Sol has only one goal: to save Ryu Sun Jae’s life.

“Lovely Runner” is easily one of the standout idol x female lead K-dramas out there, and one of the things that makes its romance so compelling is the unique way Im Sol’s feelings develop. When the idol x female lead trope is discussed, the usual expectation is that the female lead will already be head over heels in love with the idol and dream of becoming his romantic partner. However, even though Sol is determined to save Sun Jae, she is not necessarily romantically attracted to him, at least not at first. She loves him as an idol and simply wants to protect him.

It is a dynamic that “My Bias, My Boss” also explored through Lee Chan and Nam Da Reum, although “Lovely Runner” takes the relationship in a more openly romantic direction much sooner. Im Sol and Sun Jae’s undeniable chemistry, combined with the drama’s time travel storyline, keeps their relationship engaging from beginning to end. And while the drama may be marketed as a rom-com, keep your tissues nearby because “Lovely Runner” can be surprisingly emotional and heartbreaking at times.

“Hunter with a Scalpel” – if you loved Kang Hoon

6 K-Dramas To Watch If You Miss “My Bias, My Boss”插图1

“Hunter with a Scalpel” is a story about Seo Se Hyun (Park Ju Hyun), a forensic pathologist with exceptional skills. While examining a murder victim, Se Hyun recognizes a distinctive killing-method that points to her father, Yoon Jo Kyun (Park Yong Woo), a serial killer everyone believed died 20 years ago. Se Hyun is determined to find him before the police do; but in doing so she is forced to confront the dark past she has worked so hard to hide.

Kang Hoon is often associated with sweet and lovable roles, and even in “Dear Hyeri,” while Kang Hoon played the second lead, his character was so charming that plenty of viewers fell victim to second lead syndrome. But sweet roles are far from the only thing he can pull off. In “Hunter with a Scalpel,” Kang Hoon takes on a more serious role as Jung Jung Hyun, a principled detective leading the violent crimes unit. He is trying to uncover the truth behind a series of murders, giving Kang Hoon plenty of room to show a different side of his acting.

“A Business Proposal” – if you loved the office romance trope

Adapted from the webtoon “The Office Blind Date” by HaeHwa, the 2022 South Korean drama “A Business Proposal” tells the story of a food researcher named Shin Ha Ri (Kim Se Jeong), who agrees to go on an arranged blind date in place of her wealthy friend with one mission in her mind: to scare her date away! Her plan, however, quickly backfires when she discovers that the man sitting across from her is Kang Tae Moo (Ahn Hyo Seop), the CEO of the company she works at. Unaware of her true identity, Tae Moo decides to offer a business proposal to Ha Ri, fake dating, in an attempt to put an end to his grandfather’s persistent matchmaking.

There are office romances, and then there is “A Business Proposal,” a drama that knows exactly why fans love this trope and delivers the steamy romance viewers crave. So, if you hated seeing Nam Da Reum and Kang Ha Gi’s office romance get cut short when Lee Chan and Ha Gi’s ex-girlfriend entered the picture, “A Business Proposal” might be exactly what you need to satisfy that office romance craving. And the best part is that it gives you not one but two couples, both with enough chemistry to practically spill out of the screen. Complete with secret identities, workplace tension, and undeniable chemistry, this K-drama is perfect for a weekend binge-watch.

“A Shop for Killers” – if you loved Kim Hye Jun

“A Shop for Killers” revolves around Ji An (Kim Hye Jun), a young woman whose life is thrown into chaos after her uncle (Lee Dong Wook), Jung Jin Man, suddenly dies under suspicious circumstances. Before she can make sense of her uncle’s death, Ji An is targeted by highly trained assassins who are determined to kill her. With nowhere to go, she is forced to take refuge in her uncle’s house and rely on the unusual survival skills he taught her during her childhood. As the attacks intensify, Ji An begins uncovering the secrets surrounding her uncle and the dangerous business he left behind.

There is one phrase to describe Kim Hye Jun in “My Bias, My Boss”: a ray of sunshine. Her sweetness and kindness were sometimes so bright that they seemed to light up Kang Ha Gi’s entire world. But Kim Hye Jun is capable of stepping far outside that image and taking on something much darker. That is exactly what makes “A Shop for Killers” such a fun follow up if you want to see her in a thriller role. Just be warned: watching this immediately after “My Bias, My Boss” might give you serious whiplash.

“True Beauty” – if you loved the love triangle

Adapted from Yaongyi’s popular webtoon of the same name, “True Beauty” revolves around Lim Ju Gyeong (Moon Ka Young), a high school student who has been bullied over her appearance. Before transferring to a new school, she decides to reinvent herself by practicing makeup online. And while at the new school she starts getting treated like royalty because of her polished looks, she secretly worries that her classmates will discover what she looks like without makeup.

Although it was released only a few years ago, “True Beauty” has already become a classic among love triangle K-dramas. The love triangle trope appeared in “My Bias, My Boss” too, but it was kept relatively at low intensity. And as Lee Chan gradually turned more antagonistic, it took away most of the second lead syndrome out of the equation. “True Beauty,” on the other hand, gives both male leads; Lee Su Ho (Cha Eun Woo), a reserved and popular student, and Han Seo Jun (Hwang In Yeop), a rebellious but warm-hearted classmate, enough personality, charm, and chemistry with the female lead to make choosing between them impossible. Plus, if you add its over the top comedy to the mix, you have a love triangle drama that knows exactly how to keep you glued to your chair for 16 episodes straight.

“Weak Hero Class 1” – if you loved Cha Woo Min

6 K-Dramas To Watch If You Miss “My Bias, My Boss”插图5

Adapted from the webtoon “Weak Hero” by Seopass and Kim Jin Seok, “Weak Hero Class 1” revolves around Yeon Si Eun (Park Ji Hoon), a quiet and academically gifted student who has little interest in anything beyond his studies. Despite his fragile appearance, Si Eun uses his quick thinking to stand up to bullies who target him. After becoming friends with the outgoing Ahn Su Ho (Choi Hyun Wook) and soft-spoken Oh Beom Seok (Hong Kyung), he finally finds a sense of belonging. But as the three friends get entangled in school violence, their friendship is put to the test.

While Lee Chan’s character begins as sweet and kind before taking a darker turn due to jealousy and resentment, he eventually finds his way back to his better nature. But if you want to see Cha Woo Min go all the way to the dark side, “Weak Hero Class 1” is the drama to watch. Cha Woo Min plays Kang Woo Young, a genuinely threatening antagonist whose presence makes life increasingly difficult for the protagonists. And no spoilers, but do not be shocked when you see the sweet Lee Chan put on a pair of boxing gloves and beat the hell out of his opponents. It is a much darker role that showcases exactly why fans cannot get enough Cha Woo Min’s antagonist roles.

3 Things We Liked & 1 Thing We Hated About The Finale Of “My Bias, My Boss”

“My Bias, My Boss” is finally over, and it has left a very Kang Ha Gi (Kang Hoon) and Nam Da Reum-shaped (Kim Hye Jun) void in viewers’ hearts. After weeks of watching their relationship unfold through misunderstandings, workplace chaos, and more than a few emotional twists, saying goodbye to these two is definitely not easy. But if there’s one thing the finale got right, it’s giving us an ending that is both satisfying and surprisingly heartfelt.

From long-awaited reunions to finally uncovering APPELLO’s mysterious spy, the final episodes packed plenty of memorable moments. Here are three things we loved and one thing we weren’t quite as fond of.

Warning: spoilers ahead!

Liked: Nam Da Reum taking a stand for herself

3 Things We Liked & 1 Thing We Hated About The Finale Of “My Bias, My Boss”插图

At the beginning of episode 11 of “My Bias, My Boss,” Nam Da Reum breaks up with Kang Ha Gi. And as a Kang Ha Gi x Nam Da Reum shipper, no one wanted to see their OTP fall apart just two episodes before the climax. However, the breakup scene between Nam Da Reum and Kang Ha Gi serves a bigger purpose than simply introducing one last obstacle for the main characters to overcome; it shows that Nam Da Reum is growing as a person and is finally giving herself the respect she deserves.

When our female lead was in her Lee Chan (Cha Woo Min) dating era, she unfortunately did not feel comfortable enough to speak her mind. But with Kang Ha Gi’s supportive words, she was finally able to say no to Lee Chan and end their relationship. So, while the audience knows that Kang Ha Gi was not at fault, it was great to see Nam Da Reum stick to the lessons she had learned about self-respect even when it came to the man she loved. Because it is always harder to break up and take a stand for yourself when it involves someone you actually love and cannot imagine living without.

Disliked: Lee Chan’s and Jeong Yeon’s redemption

3 Things We Liked & 1 Thing We Hated About The Finale Of “My Bias, My Boss”插图1

To each their own, but if the creators wanted to give Lee Chan and Jeong Yeon (Yeonwoo) proper redemption arcs, there should have been more time spent showing their growth, and their redemption should not have happened so immediately.

For the past few episodes, Lee Chan and Jeong Yeon have been trying to drive a wedge between Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum. The entire situation began when Lee Chan approached Jeong Yeon with a proposal: he would help her get closer to Kang Ha Gi in exchange for her helping him break up Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum.

In Lee Chan’s case, he is at least shown to be uncomfortable with how Jeong Yeon was becoming more intense in her pursuit of Kang Ha Gi. But again, that is exactly why Lee Chan contacted her and gave her access to Kang Ha Gi in the first place: to ruin his relationship. However, after he sees Jeong Yeon pretending to kiss Kang Ha Gi and realizes that her actions have ended up hurting Nam Da Reum, he finally realizes that what he did was wrong, as if he did not expect the most obvious result of his own plan.

And after he confesses his ill intentions to Kang Ha Gi, Kang Ha Gi tells him that the breakup was not Lee Chan’s fault. How come? Kang Ha Gi’s self-loathing is understandable, but this situation was very much catalyzed by Lee Chan and Jeong Yeon, and seeing him getting away so easily is rather unsatisfying.

And Jeong Yeon literally tried to break up Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum, but for some reason, Da Reum ends up befriending her. Yes, they have to work together, so it would be unrealistic to expect full-on revenge, but was Nam Da Reum fangirling over HAN and Jeong Yeon really necessary?

Liked: Uncovering the spy at APPELLO

3 Things We Liked & 1 Thing We Hated About The Finale Of “My Bias, My Boss”插图2
3 Things We Liked & 1 Thing We Hated About The Finale Of “My Bias, My Boss”插图3

One of the big, if not the biggest, mysteries surrounding “My Bias, My Boss” since the very beginning was the identity of the spy at APPELLO. In the early episodes, the spy storyline was used to create interactions between Nam Da Reum and Kang Ha Gi, with Ha Gi convinced that Da Reum was selling their business secrets to SE Trading. However, after he realizes that Nam Da Reum is innocent, the spy plotline is put on hold. Until now.

3 Things We Liked & 1 Thing We Hated About The Finale Of “My Bias, My Boss”插图4

In the recent episodes, when HAN gives both APPELLO and SE Trading the task of identifying HAN’s customer base in exchange for exclusive distribution rights, APPELLO’s presentation materials keep getting stolen by SE Trading. And suddenly, the question of the spy resurfaces.

What the audience particularly liked about how this arc was handled is that the spy ultimately turned out to not be an insignificant employee whose betrayal would have little impact on Kang Ha Gi. Instead, it was one of the men he trusted the most, Choi Seong Uk (Heo Jun Seok). Plus, giving him an actual reason, his insecurity and resentment toward Kang Ha Gi, for going rogue makes much more sense than having some random employee become a spy for a little extra cash.

Liked: the D.N.X reunion we did not know we needed

A D.N.X reunion was definitely not something that would have made it onto viewers’ must-happen-in-the-finale lists when “My Bias, My Boss” first began. However, after the recent episodes revealed the heartbreaking reason behind the group’s disbandment, viewers quickly found themselves rooting for the members to reunite. So, seeing that reunion finally happen in the finale was an unexpectedly beautiful moment.

What made the scene even more emotional was Roy’s (Chun Woo Jin) presence. Despite only getting to know him over the course of a few episodes, Roy quickly became one of those characters who effortlessly found a way into viewers’ hearts. Although he was only a side character, his entire arc, combined with the Chun Woo Jin’s heartfelt performance, was enough to bring many viewers to tears. Roy is a beautifully written and wonderfully executed character, and his presence made the finale of “My Bias, My Boss” all the more memorable.

Another sweet detail woven into the entire D.N.X arc was Nam Da Reum being the one to work on the D.N.X x APPELLO collaboration for their reunion concert merchandise; a dream-come-true scenario for any K-pop fan. Seeing her contribute to the reunion of a group she had admired for so long was already special, but the finale took it a step further by having the star emblem that had helped Da Reum through some of her toughest moments appear on D.N.X’s concert outfits. Talk about a full-circle moment!

And just like that, “My Bias, My Boss” has come to an end. While the finale may have had a few questionable redemption arcs and story choices, it ultimately delivered the emotional moments we had been waiting for. Saying goodbye to Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum is bittersweet, but at least we can leave them with full hearts.

4 Times Episodes 9-10 Of “My Bias, My Boss” Shocked Us

Last week’s episodes of “My Bias, My Boss” shocked us in more ways than one. From Nam Da Reum (Kim Hye Jun) and Kang Ha Gi’s (Kang Hoon) surprisingly failed attempt to keep their relationship a secret to Lee Chan’s (Cha Woo Min) shocking turn toward the dark side and Roy’s (Chun Woo Jin) heartbreaking backstory, these two episodes delivered plenty of unexpected twists and emotional moments.

Here are four moments from last week’s episodes that left viewers completely shocked.

Warning: spoilers ahead!

They knew it all along

At the end of episode 8, Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum share a proper kiss and officially begin their romantic relationship. However, when episode 9 begins, it brings a tiny problem along with it. Kang Ha Gi is the CEO of APPELLO, while Nam Da Reum, though extremely hardworking, is an employee. Dating your boss while you’re a regular employee can easily be seen as unprofessional, ruin your career, and turn the company’s image into dust. So, Nam Da Reum and Kang Ha Gi come up with a plan to keep their relationship completely secret from everyone at the office. And it works… or at least, our pair thinks it does.

Throughout episode 9, Nam Da Reum and Kang Ha Gi steal secret kisses in the storage room, hold hands in the elevator, and exchange lovey-dovey looks. But, of course, “secret” is the keyword here. The audience also thinks their plan is working until the post-credit scene starts playing, and… some of their team members knew about their secret relationship all along!

And does it not make total sense? How can someone hold hands in an elevator full of people and not expect anyone to notice? Or how can someone kiss in an unlocked, wide-open storage room and not anticipate getting caught? Good thing the staff at APPELLO are chill, or it would have been a #HagiReumOverParty by now.

When “as long as Nam Da Reum smiles” was NOT enough for Lee Chan

4 Times Episodes 9-10 Of “My Bias, My Boss” Shocked Us插图3
4 Times Episodes 9-10 Of “My Bias, My Boss” Shocked Us插图4

Usually, with love-triangle K-dramas, viewers fall in love with the second lead, resulting in the dreaded second-lead syndrome. So, when “My Bias, My Boss” started, the majority of viewers were expecting a similar reaction to happen. But that couldn’t be farther from what actually happened. Instead, many viewers are hating Lee Chan, and who can blame them?

For the past few episodes, Lee Chan has been trying to get between Nam Da Reum and Kang Ha Gi. At first, his actions could be attributed to his desire to be with Nam Da Reum, but what he does in last week’s episodes is pure evil.

In episode 9, Lee Chan says that as long as Nam Da Reum is smiling, that’s enough for him. However, when he sees her smiling with Kang Ha Gi, Lee Chan’s demeanor changes entirely. Around the same time, he also accidentally meets Han Jeong Yeon (Yeonwoo), Kang Ha Gi’s ex-girlfriend and Lee Chan’s first love. Suddenly, all of the “as long as Nam Da Reum is happy” talk goes out the window, and Lee Chan starts planning Kang Ha Gi’s breakup with Han Jeong Yeon.

There is a limit to what a character can do under the guise of “jealousy” or “insecurity.” Lee Chan crossed that limit and has turned into a person who even the in-story D.N.X fans probably wouldn’t be able to stan anymore. However, good thing this character development has let us watch Cha Woo Min act like a villain once again, something he is an expert at!

Kang Ha Gi’s ex is public enemy No. 2

4 Times Episodes 9-10 Of “My Bias, My Boss” Shocked Us插图7

Since Lee Chan is now public enemy No. 1, the title of public enemy No. 2 can easily go to Kang Ha Gi’s ex, Han Jeong Yeon.

15 years ago, she and Lee Chan were the ones who grew close before she started falling for Kang Ha Gi. But no matter how much Lee Chan hates this, that part is not Han Jeong Yeon’s fault. Just because you grow close to someone and they help you through depression doesn’t mean you owe them romantic feelings.

However, 15 years later, now that she is back and Kang Ha Gi is in a completely different era of his life with a different woman whom he loves, she agrees to Lee Chan’s plan to shake up his life.

From all the information we’ve been given, Kang Ha Gi did not do Han Jeong Yeon any wrong. She was the one who hid how close she was with Lee Chan from Kang Ha Gi and started dating him. She was also the one who left for the States after Lee Chan joined the idol trainee program. So, what exactly gives her the right to act selfishly and ruin Kang Ha Gi’s life?

The reason why D.N.X broke up

This last moment is emotionally shocking and comes completely out of nowhere, but it definitely adds an emotional layer to the injustice people can face simply for being who they are.

One of the smaller mysteries surrounding D.N.X’s history since the beginning was the reason behind the group’s disbandment. Viewers didn’t get to learn what actually broke up the group until episode 10, and the reality is more shocking than we could have ever anticipated.

Basically, it turns out that the reason D.N.X broke up was because photos of Roy, one of the D.N.X members, with his boyfriend were leaked. Idols dating is already a controversial topic and can often lead to members withdrawing from groups in real life, but Roy being with a man caused an even bigger controversy that ultimately led to D.N.X’s demise.

What’s particularly beautiful is that Lee Seul A (Kim Ah Young), Nam Da Reum’s friend and a Roy-biased fan, finally gets to meet Roy, who now works as a deliveryman. She tells him that he no longer has to hide his true self and that there are many fans like her who accept him for who he is.

For those who haven’t watched the final episodes of “My Bias, My Boss” yet, there’s still so much left to find out. How will Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum resolve their misunderstanding and find their way back to their lovey-dovey selves? And, of course, the biggest question remains: who is the spy from SE Trading hiding within APPELLO?

Kang Hoon Confides In Kim Hye Jun About His Painful Past In “My Bias, My Boss”

Kang Hoon’s long-buried trauma will resurface in the upcoming episode of “My Bias, My Boss.”

Based on a webtoon, “My Bias, My Boss” tells the story of the romance between Nam Da Reum (Kim Hye Jun), who joins a company in hopes of meeting her longtime idol, Lee Chan (Cha Woo Min), and the company’s CEO, Kang Ha Gi (Kang Hoon).

Spoilers

Previously, Kang Ha Gi has been struggling with a spy who has been continuously leaking the company’s confidential information to rival company SE Trading. He then teamed up with HAN CEO Han Jeong Yeon (Yeonwoo), whose brand was previously stolen by SE Trading using the same tactics, to set a trap and finally manage to uncover the spy’s identity.

Although Kang Ha Gi normally has difficulty opening up to others, he is endlessly warm and generous toward those he considers his own. As a result, the betrayal by an employee he trusted leaves him deeply shaken and hurt. The incident also triggers long-buried memories from Kang Ha Gi’s past, eventually causing him to cut himself off from everyone and isolate himself.

Meanwhile, Appello faces an even greater crisis as it prepares to go up against SE Trading in an upcoming PT presentation, with the spy’s presence threatening the company’s future. Kang Ha Gi’s sudden disappearance and lack of communication leave the employees deeply unsettled, raising questions about whether the Appello team can overcome the crisis.

In the newly released stills, Nam Da Reum visits Kang Ha Gi at home and offers him comfort as he struggles with his emotional pain. As Kang Ha Gi finally opens up to her about the painful circumstances he has kept buried deep inside, viewers are left wondering whether this ordeal will ultimately bring the two closer together and help heal their relationship, which was shaken by Han Jung Yeon.

3 Key Points To Anticipate In The Final Episodes Of “My Bias, My Boss”

tvN’s “My Bias, My Boss” is heading toward its conclusion!

Based on a webtoon, “My Bias, My Boss” tells the story of the romance between Nam Da Reum (Kim Hye Jun), who joins a company in hopes of meeting her longtime idol, Lee Chan (Cha Woo Min), and the company’s CEO, Kang Ha Gi (Kang Hoon).

With only two episodes left, here are three key points to look forward to in the series finale:

The fate of Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum’s relationship

First, attention is focused on the future of Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum, whose trust in each other has begun to waver. The two had started an office romance and were growing closer when Kang Ha Gi’s former lover and first love, Han Jeong Yeon (Yeonwoo), appeared, creating tension in their relationship.

As Kang Ha Gi spent extended periods with Han Jeong Yeon, CEO of HAN, for a brand collaboration, Nam Da Reum, having learned of their past relationship, began to feel uneasy. Nam Da Reum’s misunderstanding deepened after she saw Kang Ha Gi and Han Jeong Yeon standing so close together that they appeared as though they were about to kiss.

Viewers’ attention is focused on the fate of Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum’s relationship as the couple faces an unexpected crisis caused by a misunderstanding.

The identity of the industrial spy

Viewers’ attention is also focused on the identity of the industrial spy who is threatening APPELLO, the company Kang Ha Gi and Lee Chan built together. Kang Ha Gi had noticed that SE Corporation was stealing confidential information from within APPELLO and had been searching for the spy. While secretly investigating the matter alongside Han Jeong Yeon, who dreams of taking revenge against SE Trading, he finally began to piece together the spy’s identity.

All eyes are on who the spy leaking APPELLO’s secrets really is and whether Kang Ha Gi will be able to protect APPELLO—the company he and his friend built together—until the very end.

The potential reunion of D.N.X

Viewers can’t wait to find out whether Lee Chan and the members of D.N.X will reunite. The idol group D.N.X disbanded in the past following a scandal involving its youngest member, Roy (Chun Woo Jin), and the members went their separate ways. The emotional wounds caused by the incident ran deep, so for Lee Chan and the other members, reuniting felt like an impossible dream, no matter how much time passed.

However, after learning of the members’ sincere feelings—that they still couldn’t let go of D.N.X—Lee Chan completed a fan song for D.N.X that he had been working on for a long time, realizing what he truly wanted to do.

It remains to be seen whether Lee Chan, who has gained courage through the warm support of longtime fan Nam Da Reum, will be able to stand on stage once again with the other members.

Yeonwoo Shakes Up Kim Hye Jun And Kang Hoon’s Relationship In “My Bias, My Boss”

tvN’s “My Bias, My Boss” has unveiled new stills ahead of its upcoming episode!

Based on a webtoon, “My Bias, My Boss” tells the story of the romance between Nam Da Reum (Kim Hye Jun), who joins a company in hopes of meeting her longtime idol, Lee Chan (Cha Woo Min), and the company’s CEO, Kang Ha Gi (Kang Hoon).

Spoilers

Previously in the drama, Kang Ha Gi pursued a collaboration with HAN, a globally renowned fashion brand, in order to stand up to SE Trading, which had repeatedly stolen Appello’s business ideas and brands. He even formed a dedicated team and devoted considerable effort to the project, but an unexpected situation arose when it was revealed that HAN’s representative was none other than his first love, Han Jeong Yeon (Yeonwoo).

Han Jeong Yeon was the first love whom both Kang Ha Gi and Lee Chan had fallen for in the past. With Han Jeong Yeon now emerging as an unexpected variable between Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum, who have only just started dating, the three are set to find themselves caught in a precarious situation.

To make matters worse, Han Jeong Yeon had previously been asked by Lee Chan to try to shake up Kang Ha Gi. As the CEO of HAN, she naturally spends more and more time with Kang Ha Gi, eventually leading to the very conflict Nam Da Reum had feared. How will Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum, who have only just begun their relationship, navigate this crisis?

The newly released stills capture an unusual atmosphere between the three characters. Nam Da Reum, who appears to be conscious of Han Jeong Yeon, is wearing a noticeably more tense expression than usual. Even while being held in Kang Ha Gi’s arms, she cannot hide her troubled expression, raising questions about what has happened between them.

How will Nam Da Reum react as she watches her boyfriend Kang Ha Gi together with his first love Han Jeong Yeon? And how far will Jeong Yeon’s arrival shake up the relationship between Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum?

Cha Woo Min Shocks Kang Hoon With A Mysterious Woman From His Past In “My Bias, My Boss”

Kang Hoon and Cha Woo Min’s longtime friendship is facing a crisis in “My Bias, My Boss”!

Based on a webtoon, “My Bias, My Boss” tells the story of the romance between Nam Da Reum (Kim Hye Jun), who joins a company in hopes of meeting her longtime idol bias Lee Chan (Cha Woo Min), and the company’s CEO Kang Ha Gi (Kang Hoon).

Spoilers

Kang Ha Gi and Lee Chan have maintained a friendship as close as family. However, their relationship began to change after they both developed feelings for Nam Da Reum. Eventually, Da Reum began dating Kang Ha Gi, further widening the distance between the two friends.

For Lee Chan, Nam Da Reum is more than just a fan. His feelings for her, who has supported him throughout his career in the entertainment industry, have gradually developed into romantic interest. Now that she is dating his closest friend Kang Ha Gi, Lee Chan finds himself increasingly conflicted.

In the upcoming episode, overcome by jealousy, Lee Chan ultimately makes a choice he would not have made before. He personally seeks out a mysterious woman with a past connection to Kang Ha Gi and makes a serious request to her. Why did Lee Chan seek her out and what exactly did he ask her to do?

The newly released stills also show a noticeably colder atmosphere between Kang Ha Gi and Lee Chan. Usually relaxed and playful, Lee Chan now wears a cold, expressionless look, hinting at the changes coming to their longtime friendship.

The tension escalates further when the mysterious woman appears at Apello. Kang Ha Gi is visibly caught off guard upon seeing her, raising questions about her identity and her deep connections to both Kang Ha Gi and Lee Chan.

Kim Hye Jun And Kang Hoon Secretly Begin Dating At Work In “My Bias, My Boss”

tvN’s “My Bias, My Boss” has unveiled new stills ahead of its upcoming episode!

Based on a webtoon, “My Bias, My Boss” tells the story of the romance between Nam Da Reum (Kim Hye Jun), who joins a company in hopes of meeting her longtime idol bias Lee Chan (Cha Woo Min), and the company’s CEO Kang Ha Gi (Kang Hoon).

Spoilers

Previously on “My Bias, My Boss,” Nam Da Reum realized her feelings for Kang Ha Gi, who had always stayed by her side through both difficult and happy times, and mustered up the courage to confess her true feelings. Kang Ha Gi, who had already harbored feelings for Nam Da Reum, responded to her confession with a tender kiss. As the two begin their relationship, attention is focused on the office romance that dating novices Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum will embark on.

Now that they have become a couple, Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum decide to keep their relationship a secret from their colleagues at work for the time being. They also establish their own set of rules to keep their relationship hidden from their perceptive co-workers, including no personal messaging or physical affection during work hours and not letting on that they are dating.

In the newly released stills, despite their efforts to keep their relationship secret, Kang Ha Gi and Nam Da Reum naturally give off the vibe of a couple whenever they are together, creating a sense of tension. Inside crowded elevators, they secretly hold hands, while in an empty storage room, they share intimate moments, expressing their affection wherever they are.

In particular, dating novice Kang Ha Gi shows a markedly different side, acting unusually awkward in front of Nam Da Reum and repeatedly flashing a silly grin. The precarious office life of the two, who are inexperienced at dating and even less accustomed to keeping a relationship secret, remains to be seen.

The next episode of “My Bias, My Boss” will air on August 31 at 8:45 p.m. KST.
