About
"Fangirl secrets collide with unlikely office romance"
A buttoned-up museum curator lives a secret double life as an anonymous fan-account admin obsessed with an idol, and things get complicated when that idol's manager turns out to be her new boss. It's a breezy K-drama that pokes gentle fun at fandom culture while building a slow-burn office romance. The tone stays light and comedic more often than not, though it carries genuine warmth underneath the workplace mishaps. Pacing is easygoing rather than tense, leaning on charm, chemistry, and running gags rather than high stakes, making it an easy, feel-good watch rather than a gripping one.
Watch it for
the fun, self-aware take on fan culture paired with genuine lead chemistry.
Maybe skip if
you want high stakes or fast plotting rather than a gentle workplace romance.

In the world of fandom, nothing is too much. Being a fanatic of something makes our lives exciting, meaningful, and fulfilling. This fanatic romance comedy will show you what it takes to be a fanatic fan, and what it means to be a “Deokhoo”, fangirl. Sung Deok Mi is one such person who takes her professional life serious, and someone who takes her private life of being a fanatic fan even more. Ryan Gold, who is a man drenched with success, enters Deok Mi’s life at the Chaeum Art Gallery as the new director and slowly starts to fall for her charms. After slowly getting to know each other, Ryan learns Deok Mi is a serious fan of Cha Shi An, an idol singer, of whom she secretly runs a fan page of. And through her craze, he starts to take interest in being a fan himself and gradually delves into the life of being a fanatic fan. Watch as these two characters take the meaning of being a fan to a new level as they fall in love.
