nothing exciting but still enjoyable.
this series is very standard, even predictable but somehow I still enjoyed it.the only thing that really bothered me is the female lead.... she has such a dead pan expression. everybody else is good but the FL is just so dead in her expressions.
plot: a chaebol is trying to avoid his "future" by marrying a friend that he thinks his family will disapprove. this friend is the only one he can marry because he is also hiding the fact he is actually gay.
his brother at the beginning is opposing the wedding but then something happens....
the actors are all good except for the FL which I can really bring myself to appreciate... sometimes it seems she doesn't even want to be there.
overall this is a simple, nice show. nothing special but if you want to see the same stuff you already liked this is fine.

It could've been so much better
Firstly, the drama starts off really good, its funny cute and I loved the main leads first interactions. But after the first 2 weeks, the drama started slowing down and after 6th episode, the plot was just all over the place, and they kept on dragging the plot to 12th ep, which could've easily ended in 10 eps. I personally won't recommend this drama but dramalovers can watch it if they can't find any other recent rom-com.Finally,I won't complain bout their acting, given that them are still kinda new, they did well.

Wedding impossible : forced coming out and too much shoulder pads !
I didn't hate it, but I didn't really like it either.On the plus side:
- The main characters play quite well, they both have real resting bitch faces which gives us some very funny moments (on the other hand I find that the main actress has blue teeth and I admit that this questioned me throughout the drama). I didn't find them to have incredible chemistry, and there was not a lot of kissing, so I was a bit disappointed when it came to romance.
- The secondary characters aren't bad either; they don't add much to the story, but they do lighten things up a bit, so why not?
- The plot isn't too bad, the idea is original and there are twists and turns throughout.
- The settings are fairly classic (views of Seoul, fishing village, etc.) but well shot, which transports us quite well (and reminded me of another drama, for those who have seen Hometown Cha Cha Cha).
- This drama lasts “only” 12 episodes, and it's perfectly balanced.
On the negative points:
- The story of this drama is based on the fact that Do Han doesn't dare confess his homosexuality and forces himself to marry in order to have peace. In the end, we understand that the story can only be resolved if Do Han admits he's gay, willingly or not. I find this morality really lame (everyone does what they want) and I regret that the drama doesn't present this as something problematic: you don't force someone to come out to make other people happy.
- Some aspects of the story aren't explained enough. The story also revolves around the friendship between Do Han and A Jeong, who are supposedly so close that they are willing to marry each other to protect themselves. However, there are hardly any scenes of complicity between them and few memories of their friendship, which makes the story not very credible. We're also introduced to the borderline ex who'll do anything to get revenge, but we don't know for what.
- My last negative point is a little lighter but just as disturbing: there are TOO many shoulder pads! Every episode features one (or more) characters wearing shoulder pads, and frankly, it's too much.

Great cast, but disappointing script
I had high expectations from this drama but it just gave me nothing! I feel so bad because the cast had so much potential but they were wasted due to the lazy script. The whole falling in love thing didn't convince me at all. No development was made to the characters personality wise! I expected the characters to be more complicated. There were plenty of unnecessary scenes which added nothing to the plot. I was really bored during the show, however I tried to continue watching just to know if dohan would come out in front of his familly or not. Well, the ending didn't again satisfy me. As a fan of both sangmin and jongseo, I hope to see them in another romance drama with better script in the near future.Cet avis était-il utile?
Surprisingly good rom-com
I went into this series with fairly low expectations, because I'd seen the 7.8/10 average score on mydramalist (which is below average). First of all I don't agree with that score, this was actually pretty good! It's once again proved that the 12 episode-format is truly superior, the show never dragged. I'm not saying that every single 12 episode-series is good, but the good ones definitely benefit from not being stretched out to 16 episodes. When I think of a kdrama then this show is kind of the definition of what I have in mind. The concept was intriguing and a very smart choice, because they were able to get tons of entertaining or funny situations out of it. The screenwriting was definitely above average. The actors did what needed to be done as well. I'm also in love with the ost and added some songs to my playlist. The ending was also satisfying. Some may have an issue with Do-Han's ending but I thought it was fittint. Overall I definitely recommend this if you're in the mood for a good rom-com with some brains.Story: 15/20
Acting: 8/10
Music: 7,5/10
Visuals: 6,5/10
Replay: 7/10
Entertainment: 15/20
Pacing: 15/20
Impact: 19/20
Overall: 7.2/10

Acaba de terminar este drama... Esperaba un poco mas de lo que resulto ser...
Esta es la historia de Na Ah Jeong una chica que trabaja como actriz de reparto y su mejor amigo y el hermano de este. Ah Jeong recibe la oferta de su mejor amigo Do Han para ser su esposa de mentiras y así poder seguir ocultando su secreto por mas tiempo. Ji Han, su hermano menor esta empeñado en separarlos y para lo que sea con tal de separarlos incluso si eso conlleva a enamorarse.La premisa de esta historia es bastante interesante y me engancho desde un inicio, aunque he de admitir que en los últimos ep todo se sintió tan rápido, que siento que falto un poco mas de desarrollo al final, en especial para la pareja principal.
Algo que si ame es que se recalque la importancia de la amistad y la complicidad entre amigos y ver que no siempre los amigos son recíprocos, pero igual ver que se puede aprender, eso es algo que sin duda tiene puntos en esta historia.
Cada personaje es único, al inicio para mi casi todos tienen una personalidad bien definida y nos deja entender su personaje al 100%, pero también hay otros que estuvieron en la serie de relleno como el medio hermano de Do Han y su esposa, no aportaron nada a la trama. La Media hermana fue un personaje que se planteo bien interesante, pero la verdad es que mientras se acerco al final este personaje como casi todos de cayeron bastante, y siento que nos dieron un final apresurado que falto profundidad y por ende los personajes le falto desarrollo, en un momento lo vemos triste y en fracción de segundo ya son personas renovadas y buenas y tu te quedas esperando para poder entender como sucedió este cambio, porque explicación nula. La protagonista se supera, pero solo la vemos superada y ni idea de que paso hasta llegar a ese punto.
Una serie que realmente pudo terminar mejor, con buen inicio , pero con un final acelerado y sin profundidad ni desarrollo de lo que pasa.
No es una serie que vuelva a repetir, pero si me gustaría leer su wedtoon y ver mas de estos personajes y como es en el libro, porque me quedo debiendo esta serie, especialmente en los últimos capítulos.
La musica es buena y pegadiza, ese OST es hermoso y combina muy bien en las escenas, transmite con la musica lo que quiere representar, es algo muy importante, al menos para mi.
La recomiendo? la vedad es que no lo se, pero ten en cuenta este disclaimer, prepárate para que los personajes en cierto punto pierdan un poco de desarrollo y esencia, sabiendo esto, puedes aventurarte y crear tu propio criterio.
Otra serie que va a mi lista, y veremos si de aqui aun tiempo me acuerdo de que va esta serie...

Lost potential
The drama was good for the majority of it. But towards the end started losing steam. The 3 leads characters are flawed. Disappointing then despite having potential the gay lead was sidelined after the first 2 episodes. They could have fleshed him out so much better.My full review here

Deadpan FL expression. Logic goes downhill from halfway of the story.
Since episode 7, when many revelations surfaced, the logic behind the actions of the three main characters in coping with the situations becomes increasingly absurd. Additionally, I think the series would have been better with 8 or 9 episodes instead of the current 12. At the current pace, there is too much dragging. The dialogues, even those between the main characters, are also dull. However, the show really pulls off some hilarious scenes, especially during the first half. They had me laughing out loud a few time, which isn't something I usually do.Anyway, a major disappointment lies in the performance of the FL. Honestly, I can't fathom why she was cast for this role. Initially, I appreciated her portrayal of a realistic woman who doesn't conform to femininity but exudes coolness, particularly in her interactions within her friend circle. However, when it comes to scenes with the ML, she falls very short. There's supposed to be a spark, some chemistry, something romantic, but it's totally absent. Zero. None. There's no romantic vibe from the FL at all, while the ML has already done his part. Furthermore, the plot does little to support their supposed deep love for each other in such a short time, to the extent of risking and betraying the feelings of another person they both care about deeply. Their love lacks conviction. Additionally, the FL's portrayal in these romantic contexts fails to evoke any genuine emotion in me. While the marriage between the FL and the ML's brother might be a sham, watching the FL and ML together, I can't help but feel their love is just as fake.

Great start, 2nd half a bit disappointing
PLOT: FL, a struggling extra-actress, agrees to marry her best friend, a gay painter, to hide his homosexuality from his family, and possibly inherit his grandfather's company. But the future groom's brother, ML, fighting with his half-brother and sister, does everything to prevent this marriage.PROS:
+ Brilliant leads, particularly Moon Sang Min, the ML, for whom I expect a promising career. (FL meh...)
+ The production is lively, dynamic.
+ The story is coherent, but full of clichés.
+ The short format (12 episodes) does not allow any downtime.
+ K-pop OSTs are enjoyable.
CONS:
- I had difficulty adhering to the character of the FL, not always very coherent, and I am not very convinced of Jeon Jong Seo's acting skills.
- The characters of "perfectly idiotic good friends", recurring in dramas, annoy me deeply.
=> a good drama, which Moon Sang Min carries on his shoulders!
**************************************************
PLOT : La FL, figurante-actrice en galère, accepte de se marier avec son meilleur ami, peintre gay, pour cacher son homosexualité à sa famille, et éventuellement hériter de la Cie de son gd-père. Mais le frère du futur marié, le ML, en lutte avec ses demi-frère et sœur, fait tout pour empêcher ce mariage.
PROS:
+ Des leads brillants, particulièrement Moon Sang Min, le ML, pour qui s'annonce une carrière prometteuse. (FL bof ...)
+ La réalisation est vive, dynamique.
+ La story est cohérente.
+ Le format court (12 épisodes) ne permet pas de temps mort.
+ Les OST K-pop sont agréables.
CONS:
- j'ai eu du mal à adhérer au personnage de la FL, pas toujours très cohérent, et je ne suis pas très convaincue des acting skills de Jeon Jong Seo.
- Les personnages de "bonnes copines parfaitement idiotes", récurrents dans les dramas, m'agacent profondément.
=> un bon drama, que Moon Sang Min porte sur ses épaules !

Short and cute
Honestly I was excited to watched it, been waiting for this to aire. When I watched its pilot episode I was kind disappointed because it gets me bored it very lousy for me. So I give it a chance on the next episode and it really never fails to amazed me. And the the story progress on the upcoming episode.I can believe that Jeon Jong Seo can do romcom drama, I'm used seeing her in her badass roles in her previous projects. Actually she really did a great job in her role here its cute and funny you can still see her angst here.
I first adore Moon Sang Min in his role as the crown prince in Under the Queen's Umbrella. His very good looking guy that is very tall that has a deep voice.
The story is cute and funny, they found love to each other unexpectedly that they noticed that everyone is against their love. They give more importance to the people that they might hurt rathen than pursuing their feelings, it is better for them to get hurt than other people might get hurt. After a year that they have been apart their love even grows and the people has agreed in their love .

Could have been better ?
The opening was great- very promising storyline, actors were good.. then in the middle it got rather melodramatic, going in circles.. then the last two episodes were just boring. Mediocre ending. Yep, that’s it.The FL seemed like a pretty good actress at the start, and her character was strong and assertive. But the chemistry between her and Ji Han was somewhat lacking .. and their kiss was a little cringe to watch hahaha. Her character development was just dull and mundane towards the end. I found her family annoying too.
The ML is quite cute, I predict he will have more lead roles and do well in the future ;)

Commedia...?
Non mi aspettavo molto da questo spettacolo ma almeno ridere. Invece nemmeno quello perchè, ehi, questa non è una commedia romantica. Sembra averci provato ma è stato deludente sotto troppi punti di vista, in primis caricando eccessivamente la drammaticità del tutto. Drammaticità che non ha trovato sfogo perchè il personaggio a cui gira intorno tutto il drama è piatto, privo di spessore e alla fine gestito con i piedi. Aveva potenziale essendo un ML gay inserito in un ambiente evidentemente bigotto che non lo avrebbe accettato nemmeno sotto tortura. Eppure tutta l'attenzione è per l'altro ML e FL che all'inizio paiono funzionare bene nonostante tutto e un poco simpatici mi stavano ma gente... Ma vogliamo parlare di come è stato gestito il finale? Rimango spoiler free ma vi giuro che tutto il minimo interesse verso il drama, nonostante non sia stato un grande spettacolo, che avevo è sparito in quattro e quattrotto in pochi episodi finali. Uno schifo.Cet avis était-il utile?
