looking at the genres it might seem like they have nothing in common but there are lots of scheming characters in both dramas, murder plots and affairs. These two dramas don't take themselves seriously.

• Main actresses have a similar vibe, dangerously cat-like
• Showcases extremes to which wives go to take revenge on cheating husbands
• Husbands thirsty for money
• Suspenseful and tight script, full of twists and turns
• Boku no Yabai Tsuma has only 9 episodes | | The World of the Married has 16 episodes
• Bingeable

Shoji Taishi is a new third-generation lawmaker who comes from a family of politicians and had a sheltered upbringing. The womanising and not particularly intelligent Taishi and his actress wife, Kurosawa Yui, who got her big break through a drama series, have been married for five years.
They act like a happily married couple for the sake of their work and public image, but their marriage has already broken down. Taishi and Yui barely have a conversation except when live streaming on social media and do not even see each other at home. Although they have grown disenchanted in their marriage, they cannot get divorced immediately due to pressure from their families and endorsement deals. The couple have no choice but to unite with the unshakeable goal of breaking up.

Zhang Jing Yi is the FL in both. The chemistry is natural. The relationship had depth. However, BEITD does not have a satisfactory ending.

It was a bit unexpected, but one night when she when drinking with her colleague, Niina Makoto, she wound up confessing that her marriage had turned sexless. And then, a shocked Niina responded "My marriage is sexless, too," and smiled with a lonely look in his eyes.
