This was a solid drama. I liked the ending. I actually didn't mind Se-Young's redemption. Was she a bad person? Yes. But there's complexity, too, when you realize she's basically been built into this person by her own mother. Manipulated, gaslit, and abused. And I believe that everyone deserves redemption somehow (to an extent.) And Witchy Myung-Ji got exactly what she deserved! Imprisoned and alone, with no one to save her. That's the best ending for her, other than dying. Yes, some parts weren't the best and it did drag on for a while (specifically with the Eun-Chong adoption plot. I'm sorry, but that was boring.) MOST of the actors were amazing, mainly Na Young-Hee (one of my favorites) and Ji Soo-Won. Han Groo surprised me here, I've never seen her before and she was quite great. Hana was also a way better FL than the ones in the last 2 dailies. Choi Sang was terrible. Period, no further elaboration. Kwon Do-Hyung, who I didn't even know at all, blew me away with his intensity as Goo Ji-Seok. Park Ri-Won was good as Yoon Se-Young, she was rough at first, but her acting improved. Yoon Sung-Ho could've been killed off, his character ultimately didn't hold much weight in the story. What I like about this drama is that all of the characters are morally gray (yes, they are, it doesn't matter what your POV is lol) and that the overall theme is that... family can be chosen. They can change. But they'll never leave you. That's beautiful to me. My rating? 8.5/10. A few things could've been changed in the drama, but it was great to watch. I'll miss the funny comments and wild opinions. See you all at The Queen's House, which looks very promising!
ugh i didn't like PYJ in Vengeance of the Bride. i have, however, no idea who the other leads are so i'll give…
Maybe he'll be better as a villain. Cuz I've never liked his acting. Seo Jun-Young was in The Promise, Ham Eun-Jung was in Let Me Introduce Her and Love Twist. Not sure about LGY.
Not 100 eps but 101! Enjoyed the makjang ride esp earlier eps. Liked Han Groo since Marriage Not Dating, but she…
Han Groo got older, but I think it's filler too. Her lips look... puffy. Hwang Jin-Gu was awful, but the ML in Scandal/Snow White's Revenge was JUST as bad. Yoon Se-Young looks like the 2nd FL in Third Marriage, forgot her name... but she was good too.
Ji Soo Won plays a good character in Vengeance of the Bride, it's a good show..
I liked it! The ending was... meh (as most dramas are.) But it was enjoyable. Not too much romance, and the POV switched about halfway (Lee Chae-Young is KINDA the FL, but mainly a villain. Then it's Jang Seo-Hee.) The child goes through a lot. But it was nice to watch, and you can find it on YouTube on KBS World! (Unfortunately, I can't watch Gracious Revenge there, but that was great too.)
Ji Suwon is absolutely amazing at portraying the shamelessness of Myeongji... I'm watching ep 98 the scene where…
Thank you for mentioning the morally grey part! That's one of the better areas of this drama. I'm okay with Se-Young's redemption, she hasn't become a complete angel.
This might be unpopular, but I do like that Se-Young was the one who sent Witchy Myung-Ji to prison... it's a delicious twist of fate. Yeah, both of them were horrible, but that's Myung-Ji's karma!
