When she finally secures a position at the prestigious Hanseon Advertising Agency, she is shocked to discover that her new boss is none other than Kang Yuna—the very girl she tormented in school.
Yuna, once a quiet academic achiever, has grown into a confident and authoritative team leader. The dynamic between the two is immediately tense, charged with unresolved history and unspoken emotions.
But as past wounds resurface, so too do unfamiliar feelings—challenging both women to rethink who they are and what they want from each other.
Beyond its dramatic tension and enemies-to-lovers appeal, My Boss, My High School Enemy shines a light on healing, accountability, and the complexities of first love in adulthood.
Featuring a strong ensemble including Lee Yeo-jin, Park Ji-ye, Koo Hee-seo, and Jung Hyun-seok, the show balances heartfelt storytelling with a crisp, contemporary aesthetic.
Whether you're here for the slow-burn romance, redemption arcs, or the refreshing spotlight on queer female leads in Korean media, this series is a must-watch.
Now streaming exclusively on Shortime.
