Owe My Love (2021)

Promising Start

STORY
I thought I was coming for a straight forward Contract Relationship (with Family ties) but it was anything but! First half was done so well, great promising start but then just before it hit the second half everything started going downhill and it was no longer what I came for. The leads relationship and family elements were what I loved most about this drama so I’m extremely disappointed at the turn of events. I thought the Romance was going to be a Slow Burn but in actuality, it pretty much didn’t exist - at least for the main couple. There were some other side couples that I did have fun watching so at least there were some backups but as I watch mostly for main couples, I can’t hide how disappointed I am in regards to them. Migs and his grandfather’s relationship was also really nice.

CAST/ACTING
Everyone did fantastic, it’s just a shame about the story. Migs and Sensen could’ve been (another) one of my favourite couples of 2021 but writers didn’t use them well enough.

MUSIC
No music that was noticeable enough to remember.

REWATCH VALUE
Unfortunately for me, this isn’t worth rewatching. Watching it once was enough for me lol

The second half really ruined this drama for me and because of that, there was no chance for any proper romance. This drama’s content is almost equivalent to a Ch3/7 lakorn with all the greed and murders which made me feel like I came out of my comfort zone because I normally watch Filipino content for the romance so this was a bit of a slap in the face. If you watch these types of dramas then this will be right up your street. I will say that this drama could’ve been much shorter but due to it having such a large cast I guess they needed to forever drag it out to go around every family member’s storyline and all the unnecessary characters getting too much screen time.
