Every fan knows the golden rule: the moment you’re not there is exactly when your bias shows up. New stills from tvN’s My Bias, My Boss, released ahead of tonight’s premiere, prove that even fictional superfans aren’t spared this cruel law of fandom.
The drama follows Nam Da Reum, played by Kim Hye-joon, a devoted fan of idol Lee Chan (Cha Woo Min) who spends years chasing a single goal: landing a job at Apello, the fashion company he co-founded, just to finally meet him in person.
What My Bias, My Boss Episode 1 Sets Up
| Beat | What Happens |
|---|---|
| The dream | Nam Da Reum draws her life motivation from stanning idol Lee Chan and his passion for fashion |
| The sacrifice | She turns down a job at a major corporation to join Apello instead |
| The grind | She attends every company gathering, counting down the days to finally meet him |
| The heartbreak | She misses a company dinner — the exact night Lee Chan shows up unannounced |
The irony lands hard: while her coworkers walk away with photos and memories of the idol she’s been chasing for years, Nam Da Reum is left with nothing but the news that she missed him. It’s a classic “fans never get lucky” moment, and it sets the emotional stakes for the rest of the series — will her patience and dedication eventually pay off, or is this just the beginning of a longer, messier journey?
My Bias, My Boss premieres tonight, August 3 at 8:50 p.m. KST, and streams on Viki.
