What a Boss Wants: The Story?
Kwon Do Hyuk is a chaebol boss with one odd flaw: he has zero sense of taste. When he hears a woman’s voice on an album, he sets out to find her. She’s Lee Eun Chae (Oh Se Young), the lead vocalist of an indie band, and she becomes the only variable in his otherwise perfect life. It’s a classic rich-CEO-meets-indie-artist setup with a music twist.
Meet Kwon Do Hyuk
Sung Hoon plays the only son of a top 1 percent chaebol family. He’s good-looking, talented, the CEO of an entertainment company and a genius in AI. The newly released photos show him in an impeccable suit, with a cold gaze and restrained charisma that suit a man who values reason and logic above everything.
The production team says Sung Hoon captures Do Hyuk’s physique, confidence and charisma naturally, and promises viewers will see multiple sides of the character.
Why It’s Worth Watching
Web-novel adaptations are a proven recipe for romance dramas, and a logic-driven CEO undone by a voice is a fun hook. While you wait, you can catch Sung Hoon in Perfect Marriage Revenge on Viki. For more K-drama news, browse Technosports.
