3 maybe less obvious (from ep15/16) reasons why I loved WWW
1) It gave the most realistic depiction ever of what happens after you’ve broken up with someone. You don’t cry so much that you have to be rushed to hospital. You don’t go running to your family, sobbing for your mummy. You still go to work. You still try to keep going. Yes, it feels like shit but you have to carry on because you’ve got bills to pay
2) The utter wish fulfilment that is… no, not dating your favourite actor, but having a boss like Brian. When you split up, he doesn’t come up with anything crass like: you’re pretty you’ll find someone else, or something embarrassing like: at your age you should learn to settle. No, he says: if you want to bury yourself in work, here’s more work. Especially the comparison with the creepy cheating ex, who brings personal comments like ‘you’re so pretty when you’re angry’ into every conversation, Brian’s trait of keeping discussions in the workplace caring but professional is such a breath of fresh air
3) And finally, the strategy team. Two men, two women, just working together normally. No love interests, no snogs or drunken confessions. Just four people getting on, having fun, working hard. I love it so much. This is what work teams should be like and I wished there were more of the groups on my screen.
Thank you WWW.

    I agree on all counts! The TF Team was indeed great. I liked their individual stories as much as their teamwork.

      I was worried that there will be something between Ellie and Joseph. I’ve watch too many Korean dramas that I forgot in real life man and woman can be friends and colleague without hiding their true feelings 😄
      But really who talk about getting Brazilian waxing to their female colleagues? 😐

    Thank you @cloggie you summed it up just right for me. There was romance in the show – but it didn’t overshadow the rest of the stories.
    That team was awesome!
    Ultimately it showed us that teamwork is possible without much drama – but respect is crucial.
    Finally I LOVED that each woman made her own decision about her life. Period.
    That scene at the end when the Masserati came squealing up and she got in with a smile- I was sure it was her ex. It was only on the road when the top was coming down that I wondered if – and it WAS all the three of them!
    What a fitting end – no matter what they were partners…
    All in all, I loved the ending and the fight to keep the internet portals from being used by the politicians.

    So I was a happy camper at the end of WWW.
    Thank you writers cast and crew.

    So true cloggie! I’d love to work with a Barro and for a boss like Brian. That’s the wish fulfillment this show offered me. I did enjoy Scarlett and Seol Ji-hwan’s story but it never replaced the true story arc – a workplace drama with 3 female leads – for me.
