Good Story Line
this drama introduced me to some new actors I hadn’t heard of before. Found the FL fir her character. not too girly, just a basic down to earth woman. ML fit his character also but I don’t think they worked all that well together. Maybe it was the lack of Chemistry. I also think the FL was too old for ML. The story would have been better with an older ML. The surprises in the last episode were fun. Overall the premise was good, just could have used some character tweaks. This was a drama I could put down and come back to. Not one where I couldn’t stop watching.Was this review helpful to you?

It’s a confusing storyline but ultimately harmless.
I actually felt that the writer's mind was quite confused after the plot section of the series, especially in the next two episodes. I even thought about stopping watching it, but I couldn't help my curiosity about where the story would go.I don't think it's a bad drama, as many people say, but it's not good enough either. It's a drama that stands between the two and doesn't really know which direction to take. While it was bold to try a different approach to the arranged marriage concept we've seen in classic series, it ultimately didn't have the desired impactThe main reason for this is the lack of motivation behind the female character's acceptance of the marriage. It’s hard to believe that a woman who has her own values, fights for her life, and never gives up despite facing constant challenges would appear so desperate as to pursue a fake marriage that she sees as the "role of her life."Another issue is the younger brother's irrational hatred towards the woman who will be his brother's wife, all while being unaware of the marriage's falsehood. His promise to try to win her over feels really strange. Trying to make her fall in love with him to prevent her from marrying his brother? That just seems utterly nonsensical from any angle.o what part of this series did I find appealing? It's definitely the chemistry between the couple amidst the nonsensical plot around them. If we could overlook all that, we could have fully enjoyed the fire between them in a different storyline.

Greater the story develop but ending of each caous had disappointed
First I loved the show and even down to adding a LGBTq character not making joker of the show which is done by popular drama.Second the script had super engagement but result of each caous doesn't satisfied.
Main problem of the show to me is last 4 episode made me feel the drama rushed in production because script is bad the acting is bad.
The brother character had a arc which ended so abruptly by doing what he said he won't do.
Finally show is perfect if they had same quality of first 8 episode carried to last 4 episode. But it still worth a watch and show had quality.

From enemies to lover ie..from brother in law to husband
The trailer promised a feel-good story -A rich heir asks his struggling actress best friend to marry him so that his grandfather cannot have things in his way. Enters the good-looking, bit childish younger brother who falls head over heels for his to-be sister-in-law.
Enemies to lovers ...check
Good-looking hero, good-looking heroine...check
Girl in rags and a rich hero....check
It is like watching a Lee Min Ho drama served in a new bowl. The plot is the narrative of Korean dramas released this year are losing the plotline with the seventh episode. The narrative is going haywire and the director is forcefully dragging the story. Adapted from the webtoon of the same name, the story had a promising premise, but a loose adaptation format.
It is again fairy tale coincidences, excessive hardship running to a smooth life, and an impossible love enveloped with denial.
After historical fiction, Under the Queen's Umbrella, and the zombie story After School Duty, Moon Sang Min is back with a romantic comedy. His portrayal of Ji Han is careless and would have been better if he had been more focused. Jeon Jong Seo as Na Ah Jeong is an unnecessary flower girl. Her struggle is real as she is entangled in a triangle where the third angle does not exist. Kim Do Wan gave a warm performance in last year's Doona. His Lee Do Han is the only logical in the entire mess. His subtle yet confident delivery put sense into this fiasco. Park Ah In, Kwan Hae Hyo, and Bae Yoon Kyung add the needed motion to this story. The director could have used them better to make the storyline strong and entertaining.
The cameos in every alternate episode are only fun. You can not miss that out.

Be Honest About Your Feelings
A "should not be love" trope is what they offered in this drama. But what should we highlight more here is how they taught us that we should put our true feelings above all.We shouldn't be embarassed about loving someone, or feeling the fear too much.
Don't waste your true feelings ever cause that is your source of happiness. If something gets wrong, or difficult, maybe you just need time to be alone and slowly fix the things while becoming better everyday.
Then, be proud of yourself if now you can be with your right person. Cherish her/him, maintain your healthy relationship that is built on an understanding between two parties, not on an obsession.

bittersweet
this wonderful drama deserved 16 episodes and a better written ending. Still deserves 9 stars cause I haven't felt this way about a kdrama since a very long time. Definitely will end up in my comfort rewatch list. I just wished they would make the plot unfold better from episode 10 onwards, that's all. Still work it to watch. I love the chemistry, loved the originality, loved the drama underlining the story and how sad it was, amazing sceneries and some serious nice comfort vibes. The first 7-8 episodes truly felt like a 2016 kdrama and I was HOOKED by the two main leads. It's not like the ending it's that bad, I still cry, laughed and smile, I appreciate it, its just not as good as the start. Would I watch it if back then I knew the ending would disappoint me? Yes 100%, still rare comfort kdrama vibes I can't renounce to.Was this review helpful to you?

This Story Will Change Your Mindset Of Loving Someone
Have you ever loved someone so much? Hardship, Love, And Lgbtq+. This series was everything I was and wasn't looking for. A beautiful love story intertwining with a horrible fake marriage. I loved it it. Its an uncommon story. The actors do their job extremely well. I binge watched the whole in three days . It's so hard to find series to invent into. I loved it. Ep 11 made me cry so much I wondered if the tears would ever stop. Ten Out Of TEN by far.Was this review helpful to you?
Great flix
This drama was short but sweet. The actor were great and of course I loved the male protagonist. I’ve him in several drams and found him to be very likable. I will continue to look out for him in upcoming series. The female protagonist was new to me and I thoroughly enjoyed her acting as well. The entire ensemble was good and I congratulate everyone for their input, acting also. Great.Was this review helpful to you?

28/02/2024Liking it SO FAR with Episodes 1 & 2 because:
a: No annoying immature weak females or males.
b: No overbearing mother in laws.
c: No cold males or females.
d: No ranting and raving aunts or anyone for that matter!
e: The main actors whether female or male are mature not childish.
f: There is chemistry between all of the mains and seconds whether as frenemies, friends, siblings or whatever.
g: The humour isn't too bad nor story line, but there are still 10 episodes to go to see how it all unfolds or not.
Funny moments like:
a: When the main female is trying to hitch a free ride back to Seoul with the younger brother from the hospital in episode 1 and he isn't exactly accommodating.
b: When the main female jumps out of the car in a children's zone (slow speed) only to knock herself out when she hits the street pole/light/post with her head.
The first few episodes have been enough to entertain me without having to fast forward in places - am looking forward to watching more of it and to finding out if this is a keeper or not.

It's going to be a cute and fluffy romcom
After two episodes I can definitely tell it's going to be a fun ride...I love the balance of comedy and I definetly love the female lead she's witty smart and low-key a badass she knows what she wants and is funny without trying hard.....The male lead and second male lead also have their unique personalities that add to the charm of the series....
From the two episodes it's a cute watch...nothing over the top but definetly entertaining.....

An extraordinary drama between brothers
I do like thos drama and the story line, comparing to a few dramas I had watched this year. A great actor Sang Min and the main actress was great too though I cannot remember I ever watch any of her drama but in this drama the main two characters were great all the way. It is one of an interesting story as somehow I never came across such drama. It is friendship and love. Sacrificing for the one you loved which is kind of rare in many dramas. This drama is not too long and compare with The Demon also with the great actress and actor I would choose this one for nomination as I never complete the drama " The Demon" as I do not like the story at all. Thank you for this drama " Wedding Impossible" I really enjoyed this oneWas this review helpful to you?
