## Premise and characters
Oh Yoon-seo is a popular actress known for her looks rather than her acting. A scandal involving the son of a chaebol family, one of Korea's wealthy conglomerate dynasties, sends her career into a sharp decline.[2](https://asianwiki.com/Touch_Your_Heart) When a famous screenwriter offers her the lead role in a new drama on the condition that she convincingly play a lawyer's secretary, she takes a real secretarial job at a law firm under her given name, Oh Jin-shim.[1](https://tvn.cjenm.com/ko/touchyourheart/) • [7](https://welcon.kocca.kr/en/directory/content/content--1732)
Her assigned boss is Kwon Jung-rok, an attorney the show frames as arrogant, cold-hearted, and a perfectionist in his work.[2](https://asianwiki.com/Touch_Your_Heart) • [1](https://tvn.cjenm.com/ko/touchyourheart/) His superior asks him to accept her as his secretary for three months, the length of the arrangement that structures the first half of the series.[2](https://asianwiki.com/Touch_Your_Heart) The workplace comedy grows out of the contrast between her inexperience with ordinary office work, where a single photocopy is a novelty, and his rigid professional standards, and the romance develops as the two leads get to know each other through shared meals, tea breaks, and daily collaboration.[3](https://cjenm.com/ko/featured-contents/%EC%A7%84%EC%8B%AC%EC%9D%B4-%EB%8B%BF%EB%8B%A4/) • [8](https://tvn.cjenm.com/ko/touchyourheart/about/)
The production describes the pairing as two people who are equally clumsy at love: Oh Yoon-seo, a former advertising model who learned about romance from watching dramas and has no dating experience by her early thirties, and Kwon Jung-rok, a lifelong model student who approaches romance like a subject to be studied from guidebooks and finds theory and practice far apart.[8](https://tvn.cjenm.com/ko/touchyourheart/about/)
## Cast and production
[Lee Dong-wook](https://www.edgepedia.org/lee-dong-wook) and [Yoo In-na](https://www.edgepedia.org/yoo-in-na) lead the series, supported by [Lee Sang-woo](https://www.edgepedia.org/lee-sang-woo) and Son Sung-yoon, among others.[3](https://cjenm.com/ko/featured-contents/%EC%A7%84%EC%8B%AC%EC%9D%B4-%EB%8B%BF%EB%8B%A4/) The two leads had previously worked together in the 2016 tvN fantasy drama *Guardian: The Lonely and Great God*, and their reunion was a notable part of the show's appeal for viewers.[2](https://asianwiki.com/Touch_Your_Heart) • [9](https://kdramakisses.com/2019/04/04/touch-your-heart-korean-drama-review/)
The drama adapts the web novel *Jinsimi Dadda* by Yegeo, published on Kakao's web novel platform from December 23, 2016 to October 11, 2017.[2](https://asianwiki.com/Touch_Your_Heart) It filled tvN's Wednesday and Thursday 21:30 slot previously occupied by *Encounter* and was followed by *Her Private Life* in April 2019.[2](https://asianwiki.com/Touch_Your_Heart)
## Reception
According to a [Studio Dragon](https://www.edgepedia.org/studio-dragon) investor presentation compiled with NH research estimates, *Touch Your Heart* reached a highest viewership rating of 4.7% during its run, a modest figure alongside the 10% ratings of the tent-pole dramas airing before it in the same first quarter of 2019.[4](https://studiodragon.irplus.co.kr/fileupload/analyst_e/201906/20190605_cjenm1_e.pdf) On Chinese and international rating platforms it fared well with general audiences: Douban lists a 7.7 from 101,637 ratings, and IMDb a 7.6.[5](https://movie.douban.com/subject/30304086/) • [6](https://www.justwatch.com/us/tv-show/touch-your-heart) Reviewers described the show as a light, fluffy office romance whose charm rests on the leads' chemistry and its supportive law-firm ensemble rather than on elaborate plotting; some criticism centered on uneven transitions and conflicts that resolve abruptly.[10](https://moonlighttoons.com/title/touch-your-heart) • [9](https://kdramakisses.com/2019/04/04/touch-your-heart-korean-drama-review/)
