Love Is Weird (2022)

Unremarkable

Standard romcom story contract marriage to love, but in 5-minute episodes. He's engaged for business-finance reasons, and falls for FL first so does what he can to dodge the engagement. She has a real suitor that she's not interested in.
Nothing remarkable about their acting. A few amusing scenes as she tries to ditch the various blind dates her mother sets up for her. Her mother was completely unexpected; absolutely the most memorable character. Episodes were so short there was nothing unnecessary or annoying. Despite short episodes, there were no weird gaps in the story.

Sound dubbing was weird in the version I saw -- you'd get about a minute or 1:30 with no sound at all. Auto-generated subtitles.

Cliché romantic mini-show with a bit of a confusing ending.

This is a nice mini-show. The storyline is quite cliché with the usual rich man/poor girl, fake marriage, forced marriage, parents meddling, pestering/evil rich girl, nice 2ML and so on. So nothing new here. As in many shows of this short format, there are some jumps in the story. With that said it is actually entertaining enough.
Character wise we have the usual characters. FL is kind but weak and ML is strong but under a lot of pressure. Their fake marriage turns into love but their surrounding keeps meddling and trying to separate them.
Acting wise this is actually rather good for a mini-show.
Anyway, if you like a nice mini-show with a somewhat (a bit confusing) happy ending, this is well worth watching.
