Yesterday I have written why I like this drama, even I did not watch it. 😅😅😅

Start-Up (Korean: 스타트업; RR: Seutateueop) is a South Korean television series starring Bae Suzy, Nam Joo-hyuk, Kim Seon-ho, and Kang Han-na. The series revolves around a woman who has dreams of becoming an entrepreneur like Steve Jobs, a man who is secretly her first love, and another man who is pretending to be her first love. It aired on tvN from October 17 to December 6, 2020, every Saturday and Sunday at 21:00 (KST). It is available for streaming on Netflix.

Set in South Korea's fictional Silicon Valley called Sandbox, Start-up tells the story of people in the world of startup companies.

Seo Dal-mi (Bae Suzy) is a young woman who dreams of becoming a CEO. She was separated from her mother and sister when she was young. She then received "fake" letters from Han Ji-pyeong (Kim Seon-ho) which make her happy. However, he did not use his name and used the name of Nam Do-san instead.

Nam Do-san (Nam Joo-hyuk) is the founder of Samsan Tech, along with his two best friends: Lee Chul-san and Kim Yong-san. The company is not going well.

Dal-mi and Do-san meet for the first time and decide to be a business partner. Dal-mi does not know that Do-san is not the person behind the letters.

Do-san is the founder of Samsan Tech. He was once the pride of his family as a math genius, but he is now shy and cannot even look people in the eye. After having gone nowhere in the past two years with investments in his company, he is almost ready to give up. It turns out that Seo Dal-mi remembers him as her ‘cool first love’ although he never knew her, and he decides to begin a startup in the hope of turning Seo Dal-mi's misunderstanding into a reality.
