Wedding Impossible (2024)

Even clichés can be well written and enjoyable to watch

As cliché a story as this is, it has its' golden pieces, mostly because there is some interesting character development among most of the characters. I especially love both FLs and the ML (Lee Ji Han).

-Na Ah Jung is so assertive, with a "no f*cks given" attitude most of the time, but whenever a situation calls for accountability, she takes it. That is quite a turn-on.

-Yoon Chae Won, in my opinion, is not yet fully fleshed out; however, at present, she is a well-liked character who has a strong backbone. I hope to see her flourish in the upcoming episodes.

-Lee Ji Han is so cute, caring, and sometimes smothering. I love the dynamic between him and Na Ah Jung; she always calls out his bullshit and childish behaviours, which allows him to grow mentally and emotionally.

-The character I currently care about the least is Lee Do Han. I understand that his secret is the whole premise of the show, but unfortunately, him not acknowledging himself in front of his brother makes him look... pathetic. I can only hope that his arc gets better in the future.

Great as an in-between watch, classic romcom, p cute!!!

UPDATE: Ok so after completing it, I will say I may have exaggerated my love for this kdrama (my jaded review was made after a confession scene...so sue me if i gave a 10/10 rating then lol. "that was crazy, i've never actually experienced that sort of atmosphere before, it's absolutely electric,the passion" BUT having watched it fully now, I really think the 2nd half was not as charming as the first. It is your classic romcom, I love that, but I just don't know how I feel about tying up loose ends in the very last ep. The jump was a tad jarring and the reunion didn't necessarily pay off in my opinion. Also just a personal note, I understand the need for lesser episodes for less filler but I get pretty irked when the resolution feels rushed for all of the characters in the last episode. If the main climax of the conflict takes so many eps to build up, I feel like the resolution can also take a few episodes. Idk it might just be me. Anyhow, the acting from Jeon Jung Seo was impeccable throughout the show I will say. Her body language & expressions make her character feel so realistic, its insane! I'll def keep an eye out on these actors. The ML is super cute and even the addition of Yoon Chae Won was also great! Also, I never read the webtoon so I'm not sure how it compares besides Yoon Chae Won's addition to the cast. Overall, cute drama, covers all the elements for an angsty, contract marriage-ish trope (more like forced proximity in the drama) so its great as an in between drama. Not too serious, I like the humor kind of reminds me of Business Proposal. Additionally, it has one of my favorite OST's in a long time. Every song, from the main theme to just little piano medleys in pivotal scenes, was enough to fully immerse me into the show. I almost teared up at a point because the soundtrack was so beautiful. I recommend it! And I hope the actors show up in more dramas like it! (:

I am in awe of the writing of the characters and the actors executions of them. I've been watching kdramas for a LOOOOONG time, and this one is one where I really feel like the writers took the time to outline and get the audience to truly understand the characters.
The characters motivations being conveyed to audiences so clearly drives the plot and creates scenarios seamlessly. I've been a huge fan on Jung jun Seo since "The Call" so I'm glad I get to see her in a romcom! I hope to see a lot more of her in this genre, she suits it amazingly well. Her quirkiness isn't overplayed in my opinion, and like I said earlier, because her motivations are clear from the beginning, she doesn't fall into the annoying FL trope that can often happen in romcoms. Even though the genre is on the less serious side, it still does keep me on edge and even puts me in the precarious situation the characters find themselves in. The situation is so well thought out, I wouldn't say its too predicable. I may also be a tad bias, contractual marriage tropes are my favorite, but I'm glad it's not too on the nose. The OST during scenes brings me back to the charm of older kdramas so I would give this a chance! The main casts acting is also 10/10, along with the writing so do yourself a favor and watch this drama! I have a feeling I'll be re watching this often! I watched Marry My Husband and had I known this gem was following I would've watched it right way. I binged the first 8 eps in 2 days, and I tend to enjoy waiting more than binging. Overall, acting is amazing and it's because of the amazing writing. it's not too cringe, it truly does feel like I'm watching real people make decisions so please watch! I hope to see Moon Sang Min & Kim Do Wan in projects soon too bc I WILL be following! (:

An objectively a good k-drama

I have been reading all the comment reviews about this drama based on recent episodes and I kind of disagree with the ones hating on the storyline and the drama itself. Personally, I believe this might be one of the top kdramas this year so far.
Let's start with the story's pace: compared to other people, the pace of the storyline and episodes is good! If they had made it a 14 or 16-episode drama, it would've lost its ratings easily. They gave a maximum of 1/2 episode of their romance, which is fine with me.
Next, "Dohan is being selfish" Yes he was being selfish but I began liking him at ep10 when he has that moment of self-realization and he steps in to defend them both, but their grandpa stops him (the press conference).
For me, the characters are well-made but yes maybe because they're rushing it so it makes us, viewers, feel uncomfortable with how the story is turning out

The Com runs out long before the Rom

I thought I'd found something entertaining and amusing. Something that might actually be a rom com. I made it as far as episode 8 before I figured out that this script was going nowhere interesting and that I was not invested in any of the characters. Halfway through I thought I could make it work if I treated it as a farce so I tried to enjoy it as such. It devolved into a pointless, ordinary drama. This was not what I was promised. It was less about hijinks and more of a joke at the expense of my time.

Maybe I could have made it until the end but I really hated what they did to the FL. I liked Jeon Jong Seo a lot in the beginning. I love that she has that touch of RBF to make her look like a woman you'd regret messing with. But then her character went from hustling underdog to being hated by everyone as she was tossed around by a pair of rich kids. It doesn't matter whether their intentions are romantic or not. She comes out of it looking like some chaebol plaything from a past that we'd like to forget.

Dropped and pass.

Why am I remembering "Doom at your service" after ML says i will make you fall in love with me"?

So far the drama is going good the story is ok and the starting few episodes of the drama are boring but as the story goes on it is worth watching. After ML said I will make you fall in love with me to avoid marriage with my brother, i felt like i have seen this similar situation and remembered Doom at your service where FL tells the ML she will make him fall in love with her to bring the doom. Honestly thats a crazy situation. But overall the drama is worth watching. It gets a little better after 2 episodes and this is entertaining as well. If you want to watch a rom-com where the cast is good you can definitely give it a try.

Love Conquers All Along With Friendship

At first I didn't know whether I liked the Manhwa better. At times I did but the way the Drama as been dramatic is totally pleasible. It is also relatable to the comings of goings of IMO everyone's lives. Whether your family is of the 1% or the 99% We all can relate. I know that it's a matter to your liking BUT I Don't think that anyone can say that they were not drawn by the acting and writing. I'm giving this Drama a rating of a 10 even before the ending because it's just that recognizable. Also the message is letting you choose whether to be yourself or a rock for somebody else and SHOW YOUR WORTH. IT'S ALL ABOUT BEING HAPPY.

Goofball cuties - BLOCKBUSTER show

Will it be just another contract marriage drama? We have to wait & watch. For the time being first episode was good. Introduced characters & story quite effectively and the ML & FL will be enemy to lovers kinda trope so I'm in for sure. The main leads are looking FAB already. Let the rom-com begin.

I hope there's no murder & mystery plot here coz chaebol is already very busy plot. I'm seated for this show.

Fighting!!! Marriage related titles in dramas are the trend for Monday, Tuesday in Korea I guess.

The brothers are so sibling coded and the chemistry between leads is off the charts. It's a blockbuster in making.
