Just finished ep 4 and "HOLY MAKJANG, BATMAN!" What just happened to my cute fluffy romcom. :(
lol I don't think so. I never watched Greatest Marriage, but looking at the synopsis, it just seems as though her being pregnant out of wedlock is simply the premise of the show.
A drama classified as makjang has ridiculous twists and turns. You'll know if you watch one if by episode 10, you're like, "I've seen it all. The storyline's gotten so ridiculous, it's realistically impossible for the drama to do anything more." And then the drama will prove you're wrong and one-up your expectations haha Makjang shows get crazyy.

makjang :: a sylistic, tonal, or narrative element in dramas that chooses to play up outrageous storylines to keep viewers hooked despite how ridiculous the stories become (adultery, revenge, rape, birth secrets, fatal illnesses, and flirting with incest possibilities are some makjang favorites). Shows can be part of a makjang class of dramas (Wife’s Temptation is a makjang series), or they can have makjang tendencies (Mary Stayed Out All Night went makjang toward the end). Generally considered a negative thing (“Gah, how makjang can you get?”), unless a drama intentionally embraces the style (such as Baker King Kim Tak-gu or Flames of Desire).
Currently on ep. 14, and curious:
Is anybody else annoyed by Yoon Young Hae, and the way she repeatedly brings misfortune to Kim Han Joon and his whole family? After putting him in jail THREE TIMES, she should say sorry and stay away. Even in the very beginning, after she told Seo Jin Ki that she would face revenge only and not have time for Kim Han Joon, she seeks him out within 20 minutes. /facepalms
Even the dad...I understand he loves her and all, but come on, after inadvertently causing so much grief for his children, he needs to prioritize his children over others now.
A great couple. One's a walking, talking Curse Charm and the other thinks he's Superman when really, he doesn't even have the strength to protect those closest to him.
And in the end, I have to accept all of their actions because "they didn't mean to and only had the best intentions." Bah.
Is anyone else getting tired of Prince Gwanghae? Or is it just me?

Hey, thanks for your friend request! :3 I hope you don't take it personally, however, by my rejecting it. It's just that I prefer to keep my friend list short and for the people that I'm already acquainted with. Out of curiosity, how'd you find me? I barely comment/review on this site o_o
Love is the moment~~
BAHAHAHA
