Overview
- The 12‑episode series adapts Seong Eun’s Naver webtoon and follows fangirl Nam Da‑reum, who takes a job at fashion startup Appello and ends up reporting to strict co‑CEO Kang Ha‑gi.
- Kim Hye‑jun leads as Nam Da‑reum with Kang Hoon and Cha Woo‑min co‑starring as the hardline boss and the former idol Lee Chan from disbanded group D. N.X.
- Reviewers praise the show’s warm performances and its sympathetic, non‑mocking treatment of fandom while calling the tone light and comfort‑watch friendly.
- Early plot threads in episodes 1–2 set romantic hooks—a handcrafted necklace and a phone number exchange—alongside a rival SE Corporation subplot that prompts Ha‑gi’s suspicion Da‑reum might be a corporate spy.
- The series airs on tvN with international streaming deals including Prime Video India and regional platforms, and critics say the show’s long‑term success will hinge on how it handles the spy plot and Ha‑gi’s hinted emotional backstory.
