Somehow, backtracking what you've missed before watching new school stuff can be helpful. Like I decided to watch Dream High (and I don't know if I'll watch Dream High 2) which was last 2011 and it's 2019. Now, Refresh Man is a Taiwanese drama which showed last 2016 -- that would be three years ago on the year of Zyuohger. So, I thought about trying to watch this one.
The plot is about reversing the situation. The main character Ji Wenkai is an underachieving student, the bottom of the class guy who was constantly picked on by Zhong Yutang, the top student of the class. The situation reverses when Wenkai goes from zero to hero. It's because he gets appointed as the CEO of a big cosmetics company with Yutang as a corporate secretary. Wenkai something that makes it looks like he's having revenge by making Yutang do several tasks he was forced to back ten years ago. But was he being petty or does he deny that he always liked the girl back in high school?
Yutang who's top of the class suffers from the Scholars and the Lion syndrome. Remember the story when the intelligent scholars foolishly revived a dead lion while the one of average or perhaps low intelligence had the wisdom to climb up the tree? Yutang has become a refresh man -- someone who just receives pay and lacks ambition as an employee. But Wenkai secretly wants to use Yutang back on track like she was in high school -- by putting her in a department full of dispassionate people and turning it into a winning department.
Along the way, the romance actually blooms and Yutang doesn't want to admit it. Though there are times I just feel creeped out at Wenkai (and myself) concerning his rather stalkerish actions towards Yutang. Plus, there's some rather crazy scenes where Wenkai does show his concern for Yutang too.
