Agency (2023)
5/10
Rather odd portrait of an ad agency
3 July 2023
Warning: Spoilers
As I write this review I haven't as yet finished the series with a few more episodes to go I really think that this series paints a rather unflattering picture of an ad agency. Yes while there are back stabbers and corporate spies in this world all is not as bleak as this series seems to indicate.

Acting is good but the script is obviously not from someone who has worked in the corporate world.

The lead actress got her promotion and yet still clamors to be vindictive and non-cooperative with her peers. Bullys her co workers and makes every attempt to be non-social in a society that thrives on a collective society.

Good choice in not having her link up with a romance just for ratings. Too many Korean dramas seems to think that when male meets female that a romance must be quickly developed. Not so in the real world.

Spoiler: What's with the mother-in-law and the husband of the supporting actress they totally don't support here even though she has a career and makes money. As well that definitely annoying child that wants his mother to quick work and stay at home. What's with the temper tantrum so unlike Korean kids.

Lots of stuff as not realistic in this drama and i guess that's because the script crew have no idea of how the corporate world works.

Not one of the best dramas.
