Compared to the webtoon, the drama version of "A Business Proposal" has a few slight differences.

"A Business Proposal" is a drama adapted from a popular webtoon. This is also one of the main reasons why audiences are interested in watching each episode. In addition, the top fan attraction factor of "A Business Proposal" must also include the cast that look almost exactly like the original characters. Let’s compare the visuals of the webtoon version with the drama version to see what’s the difference!

Kim Se Jeong's Character Modified To Be More Suitable For The Screen

Compared to the original, the image of Shin Ha Ri (Kim Se Jeong) has been modified to be more suitable for the screen.

However, this luxurious image in the film still successfully scored points with the audience. Besides, Ha Ri's expression as well as office fashion are both very similar to the webtoon version.

Shin Ha Ri is is an ordinary office worker who disguises herself as a vixen and goes on a blind date with a prospective marriage partner at the place of her close friend after she requested it. But it turned out to be the CEO of her company.

Shin Ha Ri’s TV version looks gentler and loses her signature pink hair.

Ahn Hyo Seop's Is Quite Similar to the Webtoon Version

It can be said that the image of the male lead Kang Tae Moo (Ahn Hyo Seop) is quite similar to the webtoon version.

However, in terms of the cool and gentle aura like in the webtoon, perhaps we still have to wait for Ahn Hyo Seop to improve in the coming episodes.

Ahn Hyo Seop’s acting and visuals are being compared to the model of Park Seo Joon.

Kang Tae Moo is a very handsome chaebol and he is also the new CEO of Ha Ri's company. He is smart, skilled, and sexy. He is a workaholic who hates lies and has not much experience in love due to past trauma.

Seol In Ah's Charisma Is More Outstanding Than The Webtoon

The tycoon best friend Jin Young Seo (Seol In Ah) is currently very popular with the audience because of her straightforward personality and the right image of a tycoon.

Compared to the webtoon version, perhaps the real-life version is more overwhelming because the actress’ charisma is so outstanding.

Jin Young Seo is the best friend of Shin Ha Ri and the only child of a huge group.

She is part of the broadcasting department and DJ’s a pirate radio show where she passionately shares concerns with listeners about this era, society, school, and individual life.

Kim Min Kyu's Character Has The Closest Image To The Original Webtoon

Among the main characters, perhaps the secretary Sung Hoon (Kim Min Kyu) has the closest image to the original.

Besides the sweet appearance, Kim Min Gyu is also highly appreciated by the audience for his expression and charisma.

Sung Hoon is the chief of staff of Kang Tae Mu.

Chef Min Woo Is Way Beyond The Webtoon Version

The chef Min Woo who is pursued by Ha Ri turned out to have a sweet and captivating image in the drama that is way beyond the webtoon version. No wonder why the female lead pursues him!

Shin Ha Ri‘s Younger Brother

Shin Ha Ri‘s younger brother, Shin Ha Min also has the same image as the original. Although this character hasn’t appeared yet, maybe in the near future the audience will go crazy because of Ha Min‘s visuals!

"A Business Proposal" is about ordinary office worker disguises herself and goes on a blind date with her attractive boss in the place of her friend to end this unwanted marriage blind date after her request.

It airs on SBS every Monday and Tuesday night.

NewJeans' Minji touched fans' hearts with a handwritten letter on her birthday — even while the group is currently unable to promote due to legal issues.

On May 7, Minji celebrated her birthday by sharing a heartfelt message on the group’s personal SNS account, which the members opened themselves to stay connected with fans.

Minji began her letter with honesty, writing, “I think I’m living a busier life than I expected. When I finally looked up, it was already May, and it was my birthday.”

She admitted that she had a lot she wanted to say, but her thoughts felt “messy.” Still, her message to fans was clear, “I just hope that I, our members, and Bunnies can all be happy. Happiness is the biggest goal in my life.”

Minji then opened up about her personal journey and struggles, saying, “I sometimes think that running toward my happiness by doing what I love might look foolish to others. But isn’t giving up your happiness now for the sake of a future that might not even come… too harsh on yourself?”

Despite everything, she ended on a hopeful note, “I really miss the times when we shared our feelings through the good music we made together. But I always look forward to what’s ahead."

She added, "We didn’t stop here, and we’re not going to stop! It might look like we’re standing still, but I believe we’re growing deeper.”

Her message comes during a difficult time for NewJeans. The group announced last year that they were cutting ties with ADOR, their original agency, after trust was broken. They later began working independently under the new name ‘NJZ’.

However, ADOR responded with legal action — claiming the exclusive contract with NewJeans was still valid and asking the court to stop the group from promoting or signing deals.

The court sided with ADOR and granted an injunction, forcing NewJeans to pause their activities. Their appeal was rejected, and they’ve now filed a second appeal.

Through it all, Minji’s message proves one thing — even when forced to stop, NewJeans' hearts are still moving forward.
