This is funny and entertaining. Fast-paced. FL is badass and there's the additional bonus of Kim Ji Hoon!

Obviously, drama ratings are strong or weak in comparison to other dramas.

Matrimonial Chaos is so intelligent and funny! Also heart-grabbing. Brilliant writing! I feel it should be a cult classic.

Perfect match for the role. He's very good in portraying ambivalent characters

Are these strong ratings, really? (I don't think that's true, comparing e.g. to TV Chosun's "Love ft. Marriage and Divorce". Strong ratings are double digits.

To not like portrayal of mature professional women as funny, cute, dumb, and naive is not the same as to be "a hater". It's just that k-drama world could move on from this particular trope, because it's too dated. Hate is a very strong word. If you dislike other people's opinions, you are allowed to express it but calling people haters is too much. Normalizing such strong language use is becoming common, but it's not within the parameters of normal dialogue.

So right, doctor can't get the calculation of medicine doses wrong or the patient could die.

Yes indeed. Portrayals of professional women as cute and funny are getting dated.

Hating is a very strong word. Maybe accept the fact that portrayals of professional women as cute and funny are getting dated.

Pls understand that "hate" is a very strong expression. Maybe it's your language use but it's utterly impolite.

Pls let people discuss. Don't call people names.

Indeed, and I recently watched Happy Rose Day, KBS drama special, where he was a kind protective person.

Was there a rule that female widows couldn't remarry in Joseon? I'm constantly baffled about why Poong doesn't ask Eun Woo to marry him...

Well, it's becoming compulsory to have minority representation in every drama. Although it's difficult to import people of color to Joseon, that will be next year's mandatory woke politics. But if you've been force fed these mandatory representations in western dramas for years to ad nauseam, you'll just feel like "I can't with this, I want k-drama to be different". The lesbians were portrayed beautifully though, it didn't come across as forcefully programmatic unlike in many other dramas. Not liking mandatory wokeness is not homophobia. It's very easy to call people names. Dramas are fiction and importing current ideologies to every drama is a distraction from writing as well as possible. I do block people like Ivy who are on the search for wrongthinkers. I know more trans, bi and gay people in RL than prob anyone who attacks me for my views on woke soldiers.

King's Affection, Do You Like Brahms. DYLB is so underrated.

I guess they'll be solving different murder mysteries for the 20 episodes. One main plot, different cases in different episodes. Like Poong the Joseon Psychiatrist. I personally don't like most case-based dramas, or whodunnit plots, so looks likely this is not for me. Will watch for now and see how it turns out.

Poor Jung Woong In is always the villain (Empress Ki, I Can Hear Your Voice). Knowing that, takes some of the anticipation away. He's scary in these roles too but I'd like to see him in a good father role for a change.

Best comment!

He wasn't shown properly, just a quick flash. I watched Pinocchio's Nose ysterday and even I was wondering whether that really was him. What a waste of a great face :)

The FL is taken to a rollercoaster ride with people who turn out to be quite strange. Her unhappiness and dissatisfaction with her uneventful life and busy bf dissolves and she learns to appreciate what she has. Although we don't get to learn much about the main character, this drama resembles the "happenedd-one-night" movies where the main character is confronted with one odd and incredible incident one after another. The drama is not laugh-aloud funny but quietly funny. As a watcher you can't predict what will happen next. The cinematography is beautiful.
