As part of the fandom, she credits Chan and his group D.N.X. for helping her cope with loneliness and shaping who she is today. She tries to hide her fandom to prove that she can be successful in this marketing job, so she is assigned to work with the other co-owner (and Chan\u2019s childhood best friend), Kang Ha-gi (Kang Hoon), a very strict and workaholic CEO. He suspects she\u2019s in the job for other reasons, but can\u2019t seem to figure it out. Set against the fast-paced startup work environment, the series is filled with hilarious and awkward moments that do cause some romantic confusion \u2013 and definitely a complicated love triangle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are genuinely grateful for all the love and support that global fans have shown for My Bias, My Boss,\u201d said Park Sung-eun, chief producer of My Bias, My Boss at Studio Dragon, in a press release. \u201cWe hope this series can be a small gift to fans around the world who love both K-Pop and K-Dramas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/rollingstoneindia.com\/top-k-dramas-about-k-pop-and-the-lives-of-idols\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/rollingstoneindia.com\/top-k-dramas-about-k-pop-and-the-lives-of-idols\/\" aria-label=\"K-pop idol genre\">K-pop idol genre<\/a> has done well in Korean storytelling, as viewers use dramas as a form of<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedailystar.net\/entertainment\/tv-film\/news\/how-k-dramas-became-our-favourite-form-emotional-escapism-3884756\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.thedailystar.net\/entertainment\/tv-film\/news\/how-k-dramas-became-our-favourite-form-emotional-escapism-3884756\" aria-label=\"escapism\"> escapism<\/a> \u2013 and even <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/joanmacdonald\/2020\/08\/12\/k-drama-groups-offer-supportive-social-network-during-the-pandemic\/\" data-ga-track=\"InternalLink:https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/joanmacdonald\/2020\/08\/12\/k-drama-groups-offer-supportive-social-network-during-the-pandemic\/\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"community\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">community<\/a>.
