In dramaland, leading ladies often find themselves torn between the love of two equally attractive men — a choice none of us would want to make! But what if you did have to pick between the frustrating lawyer and the adorkable police officer? In this weekly feature, we ask you to make the difficult decisions — and we aren’t limiting our options to dreamy oppas.
Vote via the poll and feel free to use the comments to explain exactly how you were able to choose! So, Beanies:
WOULD YOU RATHER #21 RESULTS
The results are in and the majority has spoken: life as the assistant to a high-maintenance chaebol heir is more preferable than struggling as the director of several failed zombie films — but mostly because of the steady (and potentially large) paycheck. @captainlaika was very forthcoming about her desire for financial stability, and most of our aspiring administrative assistants agreed with her. Only a select few of them cited an interest in the actual job description. Only @jls943, @bbstl (a.k.a “The Broom”), and @diana-hansen thought they could put their organizational skills to use and find the job enjoyable. Interest, however, varied depending on the boss’s identity. For instance, if the high-maintenance chaebol is Gu Won, then @abalyn was eager for the eye candy and the perks of being his sidekick with benefits.
On the other side of the poll, there were a lot of wannabe zombie movie directors — but the comments section seemed like most zombie directors were choosing what they perceived to be the lesser of two evils. Sure, some Beanies were optimistic, like @gikata and @redfox who thought they’d dig their way out of a rut or end up producing a cult classic that gets discovered by the “right kind of passionate nerds.” But the majority were far too fearful of the chaebol who’d expect their assistant to work tirelessly and outside normal business hours. (We’re looking at you, What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim — pre-romance, of course.) Even failed movie directors have more freedom than an overworked assistant, and if you’re someone who values freedom and autonomy over money, then directing zombie films is more preferable for you.
