Story: This drama is one in a wave of recent 'trend' on romantic dramas featuring couples who had divorced, meet and reconcile after falling for each other all over again. There is nothing new in its storyline:- mother-in-law from hell (tick), love triangle (tick), medical drama (tick), a poor heroine that started out weak but gradually grow stronger over the course of the drama (tick) and an egositical but rich and handsome hero (tick). Story-wise, it is mediocre and nothing to get over-excited about. However, it has done well due to the mature characters and realistic decisions they make which explains why despite its mediocre storyline, the drama did not fall flat on its face. Acting: All good and seasoned actors and actresses - no complains in this department. Certainly a plus watching Choi Jin Hyuk as the lead actor in a romance drama after capturing so many hearts worldwide as the mysteriously handsome and dashing 'Father Gumiho' in Gu Family Book. Music: Ok but nothing to go gushing about. Rewatch value: Personally for me, this drama has a low rewatch value simply because of its mediocre storyline. Overall: If you do not have an "OMG! You gotta watch this or you are missing out bigtime" drama to watch, this drama is a sufficient offering to while the time away. It is a safe bet for debuting Jin Hyuk's career as lead actor but it is no where near the "OMG!" worthiness of dramas that had carved legendary status such as Secret Garden and the like. So while Emergency Couple is good, it is not excellent. Certainly worth watching if you are Choi Jin Hyuk or/and Song Ji Hyo (of Running Man fame)'s fan.
