A Female Boss

About This Movie

A Female Boss is an interesting blend of comedy and romance, showcasing the struggles of a would-be feminist in a male-dominated world. Directed by Han Hyeong-mo, the film has a quirky tone, featuring a unique interplay of humor and social commentary. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the characters’ motivations to unfold gradually. Yoanna, played with a mix of sass and vulnerability, embodies the spirit of a woman trying to carve her own path. The practical effects are minimal but serve the narrative well. Yong-ho’s clueless charm adds a nice counterbalance to Yoanna's determined demeanor. It's notable how the film navigates themes of empowerment and rivalry—all wrapped in a lighthearted package that feels distinctly 1950s Korea.
