Like buying insurance and realizing it only covers emotional damage—done by the show itself
"Three Divorces, Zero Plot, and a Premium You Can’t Refund." 📉
The Divorce Insurance (2025): 5.5/10 – A Policy Full of Promises That Never Paid Out
✨ THE GOOD:
The concept? Genius.
Divorce insurance? It's giving Black Mirror: Marriage Edition.
Lee Dong-wook in a suit – Carried the entire drama on his back (and cheekbones).
Office romance vibes – Brief flickers of chemistry that made us believe. For a minute.
🙃 THE “WHY ARE WE EVEN HERE?” MOMENTS:
The pacing – Slower than a couple pretending to be happy at dinner.
The writing – Plot holes big enough to drive your ex’s moving truck through.
The vibe shift – Quirky? Serious? Melodrama? The drama didn’t even know.
💔 THE “JUST BREAK UP ALREADY” FACTOR:
No tension. No payoff.
The leads had all the spark of a corporate training video.
We weren’t rooting for love—we were rooting for the credits.
🎯 VERDICT:
“Like buying insurance and realizing it only covers emotional damage—done by the show itself.”
Watch if: You’re a Lee Dong-wook completionist with lots of patience and snacks.
Skip if: You expect your rom-coms to actually rom or com.
Best paired with: 🧾 A voided marriage license and expired snacks from a breakup box.
