I was loving Marry Him If You Dare for about the first 10 episodes. Then it lost me. Personally I have a pretty serious issue when it comes to drama leads who can't make their own decisions properly. Without spoiling anything, I feel like Mi Rae never got to make an actual choice in the who show. Things were mostly happening to her, or problems were being solved (or created) by her two leading men or her future self. I was of the opinion that this drama was supposed to be about creating your own fate, unfortunately that was not the case. I like Eun Hye in other dramas and not letting her portray a character that has some back bone seems like a waste.

I feel like there was a lot of missed opportunities here and apparently the ending of this drama was changed from the one the actors signed up for originally. This doesn't surprise me, and may be the very reason why it seemed to fall apart halfway through the drama.


I really liked the first half, and if you're looking for some fluffy kdrama fun, the show isn't bad. As long as you don't mind a weaker female lead.

While its very difficult to describe without going into specifics
(Don't worry I won't post spoilers!) This drama was physically painful to watch, and this is coming from someone who watched Playful Kiss in its entirety. The lead guy loses your empathy by episode 6, and I personally think its because the writers weren't sure what his motivations were. The lead girl is honestly pathetic, very weak even in the parts that were supposed to show her independence.The only saving grace in this show were the other ahjumma maids, who were great for some laughs. Other than that I honestly couldn't make it past episode 7 because I thought the lead characters were horrible people and frankly I couldn't care less about them.

I wanted to love this show. I mean Boys over Flowers is one of my guilty pleasures that I love watching over and over, but this is nowhere close to that kind of quality. Horribly written with lines that make you groan and feel queasy from sheer cheesiness. The main lead is whiny and annoying and honestly more than a little bit of a stalker. Kim Hyun Joong reprises his role as Jihoo only more of a jerk and less emotional, which I honestly didn't think was possible. His character here makes Jihoo look like a fountain of expression. Honestly, save yourself some time and just watch BoF again.
