What Is The Queen of Taming About?
The story follows Ji Yong, a hedge fund manager at the top of the financial world, and Woo Ri, a contract veterinarian at a zoo that he acquires. Their roles are already awkward: he is the owner and she is his employee. Their lives become tangled in ways neither expects, and that is where the comedy and the romance come from.
Kim Young Kwang as Ma Ji Yong: The Man Who Bites First
Kim Young Kwang plays Ma Ji Yong, a man as fierce as a wild beast. He handles enormous sums of money and has a genius instinct for investing. He is always on edge in the cutthroat world of conglomerate families, and he won’t rest until he gets what he wants.
Yet in love, he is a complete beginner. This is the charm of the character, because a powerful man who is clueless about romance is a classic rom-com setup. If you like the actor, his Wikipedia profile lists his long career.
Lee Ju Myoung as Jo Woo Ri: The “Queen of Taming”
Lee Ju Myoung plays Jo Woo Ri, a strong-willed vet with a gift for calming the most difficult animals. She is fearless and never backs down when something is unfair. The title works on two levels, because she may end up taming her boss as well. Her calm confidence should make a good contrast with his sharp edges.
What Are the Stars Doing Next?
Kim Young Kwang is also set to appear in Take Charge of My Heart and Portraits of Delusion. Lee Ju Myoung was last seen in Reborn Rookie, a workplace fantasy comedy adapted from a web novel. Both actors are on a busy run, so this pairing should generate a lot of buzz.
Why This Drama Could Be Worth the Wait?
The “cold boss meets warm-hearted employee” formula has worked in K-dramas for years. Adding a zoo setting and a hedge fund world gives it a fresher look. Director Song Hyun Wook’s rom-com background is another good sign, since timing and chemistry make or break this genre.
