"Strangers Again" is a drama about Ha Ra and Eun Beom, a former lawyer couple who end up becoming rivals in court.
I'm a huge fan of Kang So Ra, so I had high expectations for the drama, and it's really good.
I loved how the relationship between Ha Ra and Eun Beom is developed. It's very realistic; anyone can relate to the fights, the differences in thinking and values, whether they want children, the role of each person within the marriage. All of this built up and ultimately led to their divorce... but that's where the story gets interesting, because we have a couple who ended their relationship abruptly and wrongly, but when they met again, they end up getting a second chance to start over or end their relationship properly.
Honestly, Ha Ra was very brave to want to have a relationship with Eun Beom again after what he did, and they ended up not working out because Eun Beom is very selfish. I understand that he has his traumas from what happened to his sister, but it was very easy for him to abandon Ha Ra, for whatever reason. He pretended he had a lover because married life wasn't quite what he thought it was and then he broke up with Ha Ra because he thought she was going to force a baby into their relationship. A real marriage is made up of the union between the two, there have to be sincere conversations, that's why Ha Ra and Eun Beom didn't end up together, they didn't have a future and there was no point in trying to patch up something that was broken, the only solution is move on. But at least I liked that in the end Eun Beom went looking for help.
In addition to focusing on the couple, we also have the case studies of the firm they work for, which are very interesting.
The drama also raises a very intriguing question: is it possible to become a stranger to someone you were married to? Break that bond completely?
