So, so bad in so many ways!
The plot idea itself could have had merit if it had been executed properly. I like the idea of a husband trying to get his ex-wife back, and the ex-wife giving him the cold shoulder. However, this drama was pack full of bitches - his mom, his sister and his - well, I don't know what she is - wannabe girlfriend? It's very confusing, especially at the beginning with two women dressed up as brides and one bride stabbing the other. Did this happen or was it some sort of dream? Why are both dressed as brides? So confusing and poorly executed. ML is an absolute asshole, and he doesn't improve much even when he comes to his senses and realizes what he's lost. He pulls her around like a rag doll and punches her male friend when he no longer has the right to do so. I will grudgingly report that he does improve somewhat once she comes back, and there is one bright spot with MLs like this - they treat the obsessed (a.k.a. bat crap crazy & psychotically delusional) love rival like crap as well. But, most importantly, the acting was bad, bad, bad, especially ML's sister and mother. Honestly, the best acting came from the 5 year old kid! HAHA! Loved when she sprayed the psycho chick in the face with a water gun! At least she knows how to take care of vermin! This drama is what we call a B-rate in the US. It might even be worse than a B-rate in terms of acting. Thankfully, it's short. That's all I can say about it.
I raised the music score 1 point since they used a song from 'Strong Woman Do Bong Soon.' Apparently, someone on their crew had good taste.
UPDATE: it's amazing how quickly FL forgives this asshole. I guess because he saves her from being run over by his bat crap crazy sister? But hey, it's a short drama so I guess we can't have her lingering over hurt feelings. The scene where the sister tries to run FL over is so bad it's funny. Two questions: 1) why is FL wandering down a deserted street in the middle of the night when she has a kid at home; and 2) why the hell is she walking down the middle of the road instead of a sidewalk? Why does she want to run over FL? Well, the delusional love rival puts her up to it, saying that if FL was gone sister could have SML (Yiran) and crazy love rival could have ML. Yeah, love that logic. It never occurred to these two egotistical twits that both men wouldn't want either of them even if they were the last women on the planet. But I will give this drama credit - it's 10 times better than the other short series called 'If I Never Loved You'. At least, FL knows when to get out of a toxic relationship, and ML is smart enough not to fall for psycho chick's tricks and delusions.
So, why do I keep watching? Well, there comes a point when a movie/TV series is so bad that it becomes funny. It's like Mystery Science Theater 3000. You watch to make fun of it.
