Well well well...
The acting is very good, the stories are...Mmm interesting (?) in a way you can say it like this since you will be amazed with the stuff that will happen in this drama LOL, not but seriously, it is a cruel reality, that happens a lot, unfortunately. It is not all lovey-dovey k-drama, just keep that in mind while watching. I laughed a lot with some situations because honestly they were very funny, but I also suffered and was angry (most of the time, frustrated) with all the cheating to all these hard-working women (except for one), that it is not exactly that she wasn't hard-working, nor that she deserved to be cheated on, because you should leave a relationship where you are not happy, but I think that she was mostly worried about her pride than the actual cheating, I don't think she really loved him either, unlike the other two. Overall, this is a complicated drama to watch and if you are more into all love and romantic dramas, maybe this one will not be the one for you. I enjoyed because I am a sucker for dramas that allows you to feel all type of emotions even the negatives one, plus I absolutely love Sung Hoon <3Was this review helpful to you?
On Point
My fav part on season two where the questions and answer or more like begging was in place. Thats just brilliant in so many ways . Its more emotions and each actor and actress gives their best per their role.Great setting and the food for some reason looks supper delicious ... food is important thou right ..
Well just not movie a woman since they will be cringe and hate it all over .. as expected . As woman will always be on the monogamy or shall I say wired to be one . and only one path ..
Just dont quite get the ending part ... ermm thats a blasts ... will that means Season 3 in the making ?

MODERN PRACTICALITY OF AFFAIRS (STRICTLY FOR MATURE AUDIENCE)
As the title suggests it's about divorce and love and obviously marriage.It's a typical melodrama but in a stylish demeanour and with fewer episodes. Usually, this kinda drama has 100 episodes or so.
The affair storyline is fun to watch
It's a bit slow to my liking could've been 10 episodes which felt stretched to 16.
~ You should watch this if you're looking for a fun experience of people lying and cheating but with definite reasons and most of them do have a good enough reason.
And also the fact that it takes two to tango and that a man can't start an affair alone.
It represents the modern-day practicality of why people have an affair.
And how not every marriage is not lovey-dovey in real life.
Why divorces happen and what leads to them.
It's a decent drama to watch.
And also people who chose to watch this drama but ended up disliking it just coz it shows infidelity, GROW UP MORONS!

CHEATING HUSBANDS? THEY'VE GOT PLENTY
It's always a nice feeling to see a series where there's a cheating husband, and the wife gets her sweet revenge.. But this one's kind of an overdose. Just imagine 3 women, all main characters, have their husband cheating on them..as in the 3 has got in the same situation? at almost the same time? OH yes, saying at the same time is kind of exaggerated, but their husband cheated on them after the other.First it was Park Hae-ryoon, Si-eun's husband, a professor . The girls have yet to find the real cause of him wanting a divorce, then suddenly it was revealed that Pan Sa-hyun, the lawyer was also having an affair. though his wife didn't really disclose him cheating? or I just skipped it, whatever, the episode is too hard to bear. There's already 2 cheating husbands and now at episode 6 ,it seems that there's a boiling relationship between the doctor (husband of Sa Pi-young,).. and the step mom...Oh yeah! Just as we we're trying to give the last man the benefit of the doubt. and there's still hope on at least the last main character, and boom! It seems he too will be cheating.. I hope not I'll surely drop this title if that happens.. Come on! Give men a little justice will yah?
Even Pan Moon-ho, Sa-hyun's father shows no respect to his wife, by literally showing his wife that he still has feelings to Kim Dong-mi. Is there even a good guy left to this series?
This series is frustrating to watch.

Love and Marriage is a shared responsibility
When just started this and I was thinking is this really the new culture of Korea, unfilial and disloyal. Women now work and don't have time pamper and take care of their husband needs physically and emotionally. That daughter is going to get her karma talking to her mother like that.I've watched it for awhile now and I see why other viewers are frustrated with the men on this drama. Those women work so hard and are just too tired to fully take care of their husbands physical and emotional needs but the women need support too. As a woman in New Zealand there is only so much we can put up with and we are not going to allow ourselves to be treated as a slave and a maid for long periods of time. It made me think no wonder all of these Asian girls seek husbands and partners from foreign lands. Where they serve with humility, piety and graciousness. These men in Korea do they really just seek solace else where without trying to find a solution at home? It's pitiful. This drama is showing Korean men in a bad light. I keep watching hoping for a change of heart or for karma to hit them.
It is so different to our lives in NZ where we are taught that women can do anything and men and women have often got shared roles.....like our PM for example. Men tend to help share the homemaking chores when both of them are working or even men are househusbands and we think nothing of it.

Good drama considering the subject matter.
I typically don't like dramas centered around cheating unless there is ruthless revenge but this drama was unexpectedly good. They did a good job of showing human falts in marriage and the emotions in its breakdown. My biggest complaint is this is not a stand alone season and will need a season two, hopefully not more than that. If I knew it is a two season drama I probably wouldn't have started it at least until both seasons were out since typically there is drop off in quality after the first season.Was this review helpful to you?

Realistic, but too depressing!
Love, Marriage, and Divorce season 1 is well scripted, well produced and well acted. However, the con is that it was a bit depressing. They should have kept the 3 couples who were going through marital issues but added 1 success story. I believe 3/4 marriages fail in real life too. The reason I believe an addition (success story couple) is needed is because it started to make me cynical regarding relationships and people. People need to cling to hope, and believe that they can be the 1/4 with a successful marriage, even though, it'd be difficult to obtain. I dropped the show, although, I would have liked to continue.Was this review helpful to you?
Mature drama with twists
I am not a fan of cheating plot dramas, but here cheating is only a small part of it!Although, i am only on episode 4 of it, i am already in love with the cast and storyline!
If you like mature dramas that include twists you would not even think of ---- watch this one!!!
I plan to finish it and recommend it too!!!
Acting is 5 stars.
Plot so far 5 stars.
Twists and turns 4 stars but am sure it will be 5 stars too.
Music 4 stars
Me finding this drama 100 stars !!!

don't know why i am watching this
was looking for something like penthouse and heard that this was up for a second season,first off, i don't know any of these actors and actresses. Their acting comes off as amateurish.
It is also so boring that i fell asleep several times,
Though i am only just at ep 2, I can definitely say I dislike the character of Park Joo Mi and her mother. Their dialogues are repetitive. The mother couldn't even act. It is so frustrating that everytime they have. scene together, it is always on the same topic. It's like reading a book with 5 pages of narrative without dialogue.
Not even worth the time and effort to watch this.
