Best Lover is a misleading title for a drama that delivers anything but romance or compelling characters. Instead, it presents a frustrating relationship dynamic between two miserable leads who seem more trapped together than in love.

The female lead is introduced as an arrogant, rich actress, but despite her supposed intelligence and confidence, she is easily tricked by the male lead into helping him. The plot moves too conveniently, with everything falling into place without effort or depth. Rather than being a strong, independent woman as described, she turns out to be a weakling, completely dependent on the male lead, almost like a parasite in the relationship.

Meanwhile, the male lead is the complete opposite of a "best lover." His treatment of the female lead is downright disrespectful, at times making it seem like he sees her as nothing more than a street hooker rather than his wife. Their interactions lack warmth, growth, or any genuine romance, making it hard to root for their relationship.

Overall, Best Lover feels like an ironic title for a story about two miserable people stuck together in a loveless dynamic. If anything, it should have been called Worse Lover because that’s exactly what it delivers.
