Business Proposal is a Korean drama on Netflix and SBS that is based on the popular webtoon, The Office Blind Date by HaeHwa. Although this romantic comedy is still airing, there are plenty of quotes that make us swoon.
Shin Ha Ri, a food researcher, decides to go on a blind date in her friend's place. Her plans to drive off the man fall short when she realizes that her date is the CEO of the company she works at. Business Proposal might have similar tropes to other Korean dramas, but we can't help but love it, especially when Ahn Hyo-seop and Kim Se-jeong play the main leads.
Follow along on Shin Ha Ri and Jin Young Seo's journey to finding love.
