Our take
A fashion-startup boss takes on a much older intern, and the two slowly become a team. Workplace age friction, loneliness and marriage stress matter more here than fights or scares. Fine with a parent from 10. Little ones who need action may get restless during the office talk.
Uplifting themes
Respect across ages and kindness at work can fix a lot of tension The intern listens, helps and stays steady when the young CEO feels alone A gentle look at startups, retirement and how generations talk past each other
Story (may spoil tone)
A story about what happens when Seon-wu, the CEO of a fashion company who is more passionate than anyone when it comes to work, hires Ki-ho, who has a wealth of life experience, as a silver intern.
