It's a roller-coaster with some insane chemistry.

3 episodes into this drama I realized that my feelings on it changed completely episode by episode - which probably had something to do with every episode being the length of a movie. So I decided instead of reviewing the drama as a whole I would review it episode by episode as I watch it. So here are my spoiler free, exhausted, binge watch feelings on every episode of My Husband In Law:

Episode 1:
Meh, I don’t know if this is for me...yet.

Episode2:
Ok I’m more interested, I’ll continue.

Episode 3:
Yep! Confirmed, they have amazing chemistry, Muey has my whole heart. I'm really liking this!!!

Episode 4:
Umm...I’m starting to get confused...Muey what ya doin!?

Episode 5:
What the hell is happening!? Also this editing is seriously TERRIBLE...the S&M stuff was hilarious though.

Episode 6:
I’m so confused and don’t really care anymore, really about to drop this. Also Thien is being new levels of mean.

Episode 7:
I TAKE BACK EVERYTHING!!! I love it now! It all makes sense! My confusion is gone!

Episode 8:
I’m happy! I’m in love! I need more! I’m at hour 12 without a break. Also Jealousy!?

Episode 9:
Oh! My heart felt so much warmth and then pain and I cried A LOT. (Really could do without the SML) But these are some of the most beautiful scenes I've ever seen. I've also now been watching this for 15 hours straight - so I need sleep!

Episode 10:
I’ve slept! It seems like over night I forgot what Thien is like - he’s so aggravating! I’m mad at him! But also “ADORABLE”!?!? ps lesbians

Episode 11:
Ugh! COMMUNICATE you idiots! Also these guys are back? Seriously? Ugh. But still the mains make me emosh.

Episode 12:
They're so cute and their chemistry is crazy good, but I’m getting confused and angry cause Meuy’s not actually given a reason that makes sense for her wanting what she wants to happen.

Episode 13:
I get why Thiens doing what he’s doing at least. But why is Muey sad that she's gotten exactly what she wanted!?!? Ugh! I’m starting to hate this drama again, because of Mueys terrible writing - I’d drop it if there weren’t only 2 episodes left.

Episode 14:
Ugh. I can’t be bothered. It really ruins the drama when you lose all understanding of Mueys character and all her motivations. Personally I feel they’ve ruined a character I loved. (Our leads are still extremely cute though)

Episode 15:
I’m gonna admit I did fast forward through a bit of the overly dramatic stuff. I teared up a bit too. Loved the cuter moments. It was an alright ending...

As you can see - my feelings really were up and down with this drama. I started it sobbing for Muey and whispering "You're so strong" and ending it kinda loathing her character. That's not down to the actress at all - its the writing. Muey starts out as this sweet, funny and bubbly character and at some point seemed to turn into a mopey, moaning, depressed jerk. But I loved Thiens character development, it felt really organic and I definitely want to watch more of Marks dramas.

PS. Do want to give a little shout out to this drama for its representation. Its only side couples were LGBT and I really respect that, as a bisexual girl, seeing gay female characters is unheard of so it was a really cool to see.
Also I only realized when I finished the drama how great a character Chet was, he's great at his job, he's the right hand man to the big boss, he's so smart, he's openly gay, he goes after what he wants, he loves wearing dresses, but also wears gorgeous suits and he's a romantic with the biggest heart. Personally I didn't love his ending, but he was a character I've never seen portrayed on screen before and I really loved his scenes.
