The Lover is a controversial drama about living together despite not being married. In South Korea its very looked down upon and often seen as dirty. This drama exaggerate the stereotypes of couples living together in a funny sexual way but also try to show other sides of the couples story on a more serious note. As many knows they also try to tackle gay relationships from theirs and those around them point of view. Since the drama is only 12 episodes and try to handle so many issues it will mostly just be fast deep in a few issues and then a new one will begin. no couple is a like. And for a K-Drama I think the characters personality was very thought through since there was no sudden changes or writers changing the personalty depending on the situation, which I'm used to in Korean dramas. I loved the acting everyone seemed so natural in their role, especially the older couple. Sure the exaggeration could be a bit much at times, I still love this drama and would like to rewatch it with a glass of Soju. Hope the review was some what helpful and that you'll start watching The Lover.
