Main actors Ahn Hyo Seop, Kim Sejeong, Kim Min Gyu, and Seol In Ah also gained immense popularity due to their iconic roles.
But did you know that behind its successful journey and good casting, this actress was first offered the role of the female lead?
Did You Know? Jo Bo Ah Was Supposed to Play the Role of Shin Ah Ri
Many K-drama fans have enjoyed the romantic-comedy series "A Business Proposal." With its cliche story plot, the leads stars were able to make it extraordinary. It even topped the most buzzworthy drama for weeks.
Idol-actress Kim Sejeong perfectly portrayed Shin Ha Ri and Shin Geum Hee's roles. Originally, back in March 2021, Korean media released multiple reports that it was Jo Bo Ah who had been cast for the lead and was already considering accepting the offer.

Jo Bo Ah Decided to Star in 'Military Prosecutor Doberman' Instead
Unfortunately, there was no news published confirming whether the actress had dropped out of the project. But, the public was surprised when Jo Bo Ah was cast for another lead role in tvN's "Military Prosecutor Doberman."
Both series were filmed in the same period in late 2021, which makes it impossible for the "Tale of The Nine-Tailed" star to appear in two projects.
Because of this, fans speculated that Jo Bo Ah wanted to grab the opportunity to develop a new image as an actress. Based on her previous roles, she has played the same type of image as a beautiful, charming, famous lady.
In her drama debut "Shut Up! Flower Boy Band" in 2012, she played the role of Im Soo Ah, a muse of the famous rock band. She then appeared in KBS' series "All About My Mom" as a cute rich girl. She slowly transitioned to engage in a more challenging role as an investigative journalist in tvN's 2020 fantasy series, "Tale of The Nine-Tailed" which helped her develop a good acting portfolio.
Now that she appears as a fierce military prosecutor in the revenge-action drama "Military Prosecutor Doberman," Jo Bo Ah made a successful transformation. She exhibits limitless talent and skills in the series. She cut her hair short and wears a military uniform which displayed a strong aura.
Though she did not make it to lead the drama "A Business Proposal," Jo Bo Ah still made a successful transformation with her current role and showed her never before seen skills on screen.
Watch Jo Bo Ah every Monday and Tuesday on "Military Prosecutor Doberman" on tvN.
