The webtoon "A Business Proposal" initially held a special place for the writer, but expectations for its adaptation into a drama were not fully met. The drama deviated in various aspects, resulting in a disconnected and messy storyline. While the drama had its merits as a romantic comedy, it ultimately fell short of capturing the essence of the original webtoon.
