I read the webtoon a couple of days before this drama ended. I watch series once they're done so that I can binge them, that's why the original story was VERY fresh in my mind when I started watching MMH.

At the beginning the series was pretty okay. I was curious; I laughed some. The FL's husband had a great balance between 'evil' and hilarious even if it wasn't how his character was portrayed in the webtoon. He did great overall, and I like him as a comedian and person in general.

The ML was a problem for me even before starting. I don't like his acting. I don't like his 'image' or the energy he proyects when acting. He was a bad match for this character. There, I said it. He had no nuance, no 'mystery'. He was a plain piece of bread. No depth. No flavour. I had absolutley NO curiosity about who he was or what his true intentions were, totally opposite of how I felt in the webtoon. There was ZERO chemistry between him and the FL. That is saying A LOT since PMY is an AMAZING actress and has AMAZING chemistry with her co-stars. She goes all out. Every. Time. I love all her dramas. She is trully a magnificent performer. I could see how hard she was trying to carry her co-star. I carried though from ep.10 almost purely out of loyalty to her. I skipped through scenes from ep.14, I was bored out of my mind.

Now. About the plot changes. Some were okay, they changed the order of some things and the dates as well (I asume to make the actor's ages more credible). The addition of that certain new female character was completely unecessary and uncalled for. The only explanation for it I can come up with is that they wanted to have a 16 ep. drama and couldn't find a way to fill the run time without bringing some nonsense into the mix. The webtoon is pretty crazy and ridiculous in the things these people do to take revenge, however the new mayor plot change towards the last 3rd of the series simply cheapened the show. A true shame.

Somehow, this show removed the suspense and intrigue of the story. I don't know how that's posible. I really don't think it had anything to do with the fact that I already 'knew the story'. Even with the changes they made it was somehow predictable and executed half heartedly. In the webtoon I remember feeling true fear for Su-mins character. She is CRAZY. Like bat-sh*t crazy. And I could feel it in my SOUL. The actress did great in the first half of the show but her intensity slowly diminished as the story went on (I think it was the writting that changed her direction). She didn't feel crazy anymore, she just looked loud and obsessed. Don't know if I got my thoughts across properly there but that gives you an idea.

I just wouldn't watch this show. If I could go back to my past self from a couple days ago, I would simply tell her to enjoy the Webtoon and cherish it because that's as good as it's going to get. The chemistry is palpable in the webtoon, I couldn't stop scrolling!!! I even bought coins to read it all in one day!! That's how good it is.
This show on the other hand, was not.

Marry My Husband was another drama I hoped would become a favorite that just didn't even come close to the mark.
Oh well, off to search for something new. Still a few weeks away form Captivating the king, Branding in Seonsu, and Doctor Slump!
