Marriage contracts are interesting, and even though I've watched and read countless stories based on them, none have really stood out (excluding Prime Minister and I ?). Let me just say that this drama stood out in all aspects. I won't go into too much detail, but I will mention the important things which really made me love MC.
The plot has been amazingly put together. There were no loose ends and the ending was simply beautiful. Everything flowed together and what really helped was that even though it was two very very common plots put together (rich guy, average girl and the marriage contract) you couldn't see each on its own because they were both seamlessly weaved. I'm not sure if that makes sense but I'll move on to the actors and characters now :)
The acting was SPLENDID. Absolutely amazing. The actors really helped bring the characters to life and allowed the beauty of each one to show through. The truth is, when I started the drama there were so many people saying that the male lead was so old and all, and that was kind of in my mind when watching the first few minutes but after that I was able to see him not as the actor but rather as Ji Hoon and that's what really made me love the show.
I loved Hye Soo. Honestly I just loved her from the bottom of my heart. She is such a beautiful person and the actress just made this beauty glow like a thousand stars. A lot of the time, female leads in K-dramas are not my favourite. Even though they might not be annoying or clingy, I don't exactly like them. but Hye Soo was a completely different story. She was kind and caring but not naive, and there was this aura around her that just had me captivated from the start. Maybe it was the way she was around her daughter but she was just a gem, truly. And even though she cried quite a number of times, it wasn't annoying and didn't make her look so vulnerable. Her crying made me want to cry, and I did. This review is taking too long so I'll cut it short.
All the other characters were also so great. I can't believe I'm saying this and right now I'm laughing because obviously the antagonist is very evil and unlikable, right? This is all owed to the plot and the actors who made my day (since I watched it in a day ;))
I recommend this to everyone because I think many people would enjoy this. The ending is totally satisfying and beautiful. That's all I can say. So if you're going to give MC a go, then have fun because you most definitely will and enjoy!
PS. Excuse any mistakes since this is my first review.
