i don't remember crying either except when i thought ML was going to die
She broke off the wedding? When was that? Or do you mean break up after she found out ml had a fiancée? I did f mind after BoA came into the picture because someone has to die for ML to survive.
Can we just appreciate our Hee yeon ( ML sister) with less screen time she did leave a fantastic impression. What an energy!!! i really wanted to see Her love interest more. She was so cool,energetic.. Even i fall in love with her, ❤️
I normally don’t like to watch revenge dramas, but after “The Glory”, I became less reluctant to watch this sub-genre. I don’t like time-travelling shows either, unless it is done well. So I went into this drama with not much expectation, except I haven’t seen Min Young since “Her Private Life”, so I thought I should give this a chance, and boy, I’m glad I did.
This drama asks: what would you do with your life, if given a second chance to relive it? Ji Won travels back in time to do just that, after dying not from terminal cancer as she was pre-destined to do, but from an argument with her husband and her best friend about their infidelity. Ji Won uses this second chance to turn her life around, refusing to become the doormat she once was, and using the knowledge she gained from her future, to mitigate her losses and transfer them to somebody else.
It was also during this time travel that she learned about her unrequited boss’ feelings for her. It turns out that Ji Hyeok has been quietly supporting her all along despite her obliviousness.
This drama was filled with so much angst and intrigue that I relished every moment of it. I also liked the brooding Na In Woo when he shoots heart eyes at Park Min Young’s character. It is the first time I’ve seen In Woo as a main lead in a drama and he didn’t disappoint. I’ve loved Min Young since "Sungkyunkwan Scandal" so I already knew what I was expecting and she delivered.
Perhaps the only thing that prevented me from throwing a bottle at the TV is my hope that justice will be served in the end. It was frustrating to see Min Hwan and Soo Min acting so entitled and devious, as if the world owed them something and both blaming others for their misfortunes. Min Hwan’s mother is no better. I wanted to rip her hair out for treating her daughter-in-law so badly.
Despite these frustrations, “Marry My Husband” is a highly entertaining watch.
actually tbh I didnt like the FL. She was too much scared to do many things which she should've done before. And…
is that not the point though? her entire arc is that she needed to learn how to stand up for herself and stop allowing for herself to be the beaten/abused woman in every situation. this is one of the few "jump to the past" dramas i've seen that are actually somewhat realistic in how the FL acts. she knows what she has to do but it doesn't change how traumatic the experiences are. it's like they said: "I chose to fight, and I will win".
Exactly... this system is quite inhumane, especially since rich sons from Chaebols and influential politicians…
Either world history gets taught differently in the States, or there is some very serious confusion over who, what, when, how regional wars started AND continued.
To make it short (as much as it can be done with such a complex history), the freaking CIA of the US has had its dirty fingers in so many pies all over the world, it's not even remotely funny. I mean, they undermined ANY kind of social democracies in the South and Latin America just based on the fear that "commies" are going to come too close to the US borders (oh and even before that, there's that "delicious" destruction of any political systems in Honduras that started because the freaking country wouldn't beg on its knees to some banana company to allow it to continue its existence! - and not once, but SEVEN times over, up tp the middle of the 20th century. That's just Honduras, though, they got involved in a lot of other South and Latin American small countries. Where did you think the term "banana republic" came from?!) And then there's the whole Iran Shah issue, which also involved American CIA and led to the present situation where freaking Iran is one of the worst theocracies around, just because BP wanted to keep its oil sources and make money, and the US decided they wanted an in, too. And there are so many other mishaps - people are a fighting and irrational species, we like war, but most wars happen and end on their own... not so when they're used for proxy fighting among world superpowers with vested interest in resources and power projection zones. I can't believe you seriously do think the US ONLY became involved in all its wars by accident, because they like to help and the like!
The US had a freaking red scare period that took WAY too long to even ammeliorate, and it's still going on at a level of irrational fear of anything sounding "social"-inclined, up to and including its own public health system. The whole period of the Cold War they DID start OR encouraged a lot of troubles everywhere they imagined Russians or Chinese were trying to influence into getting in their own zone of projected power (and maybe that was warranted, but the WAY they did go about it is atrocious. And no, the end doesn't justify the means, even if they were really, really scared the commies were coming to get them.)
The Korean War would've remained a regional war that would have been solved eventually if BOTH sides didn't ally themselves with whoever they could - the Chinese and Russians did provide support to the present NK, and the US and their allies supported SK. It was by all definitions a proxy war, except it did include American soldiers who, by all means, should not have even been there if it wasn't for the fear Americans already had of the USSR and China. And it may be presumed that they actually wanted to keep a foothold in Asia just to make sure nothing would come from there by surprise. That makes sense, in a way, but it doesn't actually excuse 3 million victims among Koreans on both sides of the lines (more than in the Vietman war), some of which SK executed directly just because they were suspected NK communists, completely destroyed cities and infrastructure, and created a completely messed up political system IN BOTH COUNTRIES. The NK got loaded with the Kim family of dictators, and SK was a military dictatorship, TOO, up til the beginning of the 1990s. That is 40 years of military dictatorship that was inflicted on them AFTER the armistice. And it was supported by the allies who had fought on their side or supported them in different ways.
There are no freaking angels in an inter-ethnic war, no matter who started it.
And leaving that aside - again, the discussion started with why does SK HAVE to make its young men go to mandatory army training - THIS IS WHY. The war has been going on for nigh on 74 years now, and it's only been put on the back burner, not concluded. And NK starved its population until it got its nuclear weapons, which means it's under a MAD shield right about now. But SK DOESN'T have it own MAD shield, it's under the US' shield, and the US has already proven it can elect actual idiots in its highest place of power, and keep supporting them - wildly cheering them on - as they promise to dismantle every promise the US has made to its allies.
SK men do NOT have the luxury of voluntary army, if it wants to have some chance of survival. If it's left on its own, you can bet NK will come knocking. And THEN we'll see what happens.
That is the whole problem, though - SOME of them CAN find means of evading mandatory miliary service, and it's definitely unfair for the rest of them. Getting rid of the mandatory military service is not on the table - the country is still, officially, at war! - but people do not take it well when someone even SEEMS to try to get out of it. If the freaking war resumes, those who didn't go would have to hide behind those who did go, and that's not acceptable. I can freaking understand their POV, and I'm not even Korean, or in Asia right now. It's not so hard to understand, the heck!

There are a lot of YouTube videos with excerpts promoting this series as having GL content, it does not. There…
She clearly said she is in love with her and the other girl said we will be forever sisters. WHAT?? And let me tell you that the girl that said sisters will end up with dude and the other girl probably too. Thats another way to do queer bait . Yiiiikes
This is amazing!! Probably the best role I've seen PSH play and she's SO well-suited for it. I need more like this for her ASAP. I usually stay away from violent dramas, but this was surprisingly satisfying.
This was...ok? I think someone mentioned below the first half was really captivating and it was really slow and downhill in the second half. I wish they had stuck to more episodic stories. I thought PSH was decent in this role but lacked in the action scenes. Her punches felt so slow for a demon. I also didn't care for the story of "let's bring them to justice via the law" because if you are following the biblical sense of justice (which this heavily was), the justice served by her in the first half was far more satisfying. Overall - an ok watch, last 2 eps could be completely cut out and wouldn't make a difference.
That push by Lee Young Joon at the end of episode 5. I was literally rolling on the floor and laughing 🤣 I have never seen a kiss scene turn this comic 💯🤣
anna is basically every helpless mary sue every played throughout history. i loved almost every other aspect of…
