Então Eu me Casei Com a Minha Anti-fã (2021)

I was excited by the premise of a love-hate relationship between celebrity and commoner that I ignored the lukewarm reviews. After watching it though, it was neither here nor there. What I did enjoy was the idea of a kpop idol and a rookie journalist being at odds in the beginning due to misunderstandings. It was their story that made me finish the drama. What I did not enjoy was the secondary couple who should not even be together due to the toxicity of the relationship. I wish that they casted a real kpop idol to play the male lead who could actually sing and dance, but instead they casted a kpop idol for the female lead who did not require her singing/dancing skills.

I'm surprised of the overall rating, why 5+?

I honestly don't know where to start with reviewing this drama
Don't jump at me as I am just providing this viewpoint from a realist lens. So ladies if any one treats you like they treated the fl. Make sure your red flag buzzer SCREAMS.

I personally haven't read the manhua so not sure if this follows the same story plot, if it's this cringe so this isn't related to the manhwa at all
Plot/story was not good
Poor script writing
Acting was average
Music was average to descent
The flow and story characters were lacking badly

These are some of the bullet points that stood out clearly
1- No-one apologises to her, atleast not sincerely (ml says first empty measly sorry ep10)
2- fl lead is a total push over, she even smiling and chatting (near the end) to a cheating narcissistic ex and to the abusive boss "I felt a little guilty..." wtf dude everyone did fake pretend 180 in their personality... they still DID NOT apologise (I'm sorry followed by isn't that a bit comforting is gaslighting manipulation101)
3- can't blame her though since it's seems like hierarchy, misogynistic culture, it's kinda the norm sadly.
4- The ml is an egoistic gaslighting narcissist
5- The other manipulative low esteem abusive guy lead also displays same authoritarian behaviour towards the other second female lead character and ends up with her 🤢
6- Romance is forced and feels unnatural, lacking chemistry. Poor communication and ml decides to distance himself to sort things out leaving fl to cry out of self pity 🙄 (neglecting girlfriend for multiple months!)
7- Fl is constantly threatened, told to be patient, stay in her lane, used and misunderstood by almost everyone. Like she let's a stalking fan who abused her in public, stay in the celebrities home (instead of taking necessary actions of someone barging in)
They all do as they please despite fl protest/annoyance and ignoring her opinion
The only abuse I approve is the fl's father beating the ml👌

Did I say nobody bloody apologises for any of their actions (the 2 sorrys' in there were empty, the ml says I'm sorry after he talks about his struggles and the fl says you don't need to say sorry lmao), even the mum rudely speaking down to her didn't even utter any apologies urgh... The only decent individual is the manager of the ml

2/10 just for the acting effort and seeing Taeyangs cute brother (his chemistry with his colleague was way better!)
Why did I watch this you ask, because Prime is the only service I had, didn't have anything else to watch (although it took me too long to finish this 🙄) and I have a stubborn habit on finishing what I started. It was just tolerable enough to continue it giving me the chance to write this essay as I was watching along. Only watch this if you are bored af and don't mind sleeping through it 😂
The only that will stick to me is most likely "wariso" 🤣

Should I love this or hate this???

The drama has quite lot a issues,but still I couldn't help watching it. If it was not for the second couple, the drama would have got a whooping 9 ratings from me. The leads were too good, whenever I thought that they will go off track,they surprised me by making it through the situation maturely. Also they had some very cute,fluttering scenes.
The osts and background scores were superb and are my absolute favourites.
The drama is not bad, but the issues it had,and how the deeds of second couple were whitewashed was disturbing for me.
Anyways, I would never mind going back and watching the scenes of the leads

I must say it's really a good drama to watch. It started with a good storyline from the first episodes. And they really showed how anti-fan the female lead was. However it should be noted that this drama still had flaws. The writers would have atleast shown enough chemistry between the leads the female lead is so neutral and naive that she doesn't know whom to support while the male lead seems to care about only what happened in his past. He's actually stuck in his past. They're talented actors and actress buy were not used enough. Another thing is that on several occasions the male lead seems to be behind the second male lead with him being humiliated a lot on several occasions. But overall it's a drama a recommend it's so great and entertaining.

It's been a few months since I enjoyed a drama as much as this one.

The main couple is the main reason for that. They had such good chemistry and were so sweet. I'm a sucker for the "enemies to lovers" trope, which was executed so very smoothly. I also really liked the relationship between the producers for the variety show. Joon's manager, wardrobe lady and Geoun Young's parents were very likable characters, too. The parents had a few hilarious scenes, and it was cute how Ji Hyang was their first shipper.

On the negative side, the second couple was so very toxic. Which was only made worse by the fact that they were two sides of the show's love triangle. It, perhaps, would have been better if JJ died. He was such a mean, manipulative and emotionally abusive character, and I don't think he deserved the weak attempt at a redemption arc they gave him. He was nowhere near damaged enough to justify him being that absolutely awful to other people. In Hyung was not much better. So pitiful for no apparent reason. She made her choices, picked her path and then refused to take responsibility for her own life. I don't really like "woe is me" characters who don't do anything to change their circumstances.

But, all in all, this show was extremely bingeable and so much fun! Would recommend.

Para passar seu tempo

Com certeza você já viu muito deste conteudo por ai, sim pois temos aaqui quase todo tipo de cliche possivel, mocinha vitimizada e constantemente injustiçada, mocinho famoso, amado e desejado por todos e por ai vai, porém eu até que já esperava por isso , se for bem beito não me importo porém.

Confesso que fiquei decepcionada com vários apectos neste drama, o casal principal era bem mediano o romance faltou quimica principalmente da protagonista feminina que era bem inexpressiva. O vilão era lamentável, bem chato toda cena dele era a mesma coisa foi cansativo de ver´, pulei várias cenas dele e quando assistia novamente , lá estava ele falndo e fazendo as mesmas coisas , posso dizer que esse foi o vilão mais chato até agora que tive o desprazer de assistir, fizeram seu papel ser patético, isso me leva a falar do romance dele com a segunda protagonista que foi horrivel, ele era abusivo e manipulador percebi que romantizaram isso, e no final ele saiu como vitima sendo o incompreendidoe conseguindo seu final feliz, foi dificil de digerir.

A premissa era até que boa uma pena não ter dado certo, apesar de tudo eu me diverti em alguns momentos principalmente no reality. Sabe esse drama é aquele que é para você assistir quando não tiver nada melhor na sua lista, ou se você estiver apenas querendo algo leve e bem simples para preencher seu tempo.

I am sure that “Girls Generation” Choi Soo Young brought many of her fans to this drama with expectations to see something that would make the heart flutter. The first 7 episodes were typical K-drama fare---nothing out of the ordinary on the menu, but what you did like was the gradual change of heart that Hoo Joon (played by Choi Tae Joon) was having toward Lee Guenyoung (played by Choi Soo Young).

It was not until episode 8 when Hoo Joon finally confessed his feelings to Guenyoung and actor Choi Tae Joon showed us all (and boy did he 😊) that he really knows how to kiss a woman. From the moment of that kiss at the end of episode 7, it was like the drama went into overdrive and someone had slapped a jet propulsion pack on the backs of the audience. The love story shifted into high gear, and it was an incredibly fun and enjoyable ride to the very end.

The three things that I loved most about this drama were: 1) The fierce approach that Hoo Joon had in his displays of affection for Guenyoung. Every time he kissed her you got the feeling that he was thinking to himself “I am going to KISS you (Guenyoung) REEEAL GOOD!!!! You will know that you've been kissed and it will never be confused as an accident”. I just loved it !!!! I also loved Guenyoung’s girly responses to many of their sweet moments together. 2) Hoo Joon was not just a boyfriend to Guenyoung but he became an honorable man. Who couldn’t be in love with this man and/or respect him highly when he sincerely put his career on the line to protect his friends and Guenyoung. I was so proud of the transformation of Hoo Joon and the reveal of his strong character and unswerving love for Guenyoung. 3) The extremely happy ending. It was an ending that encompassed reflection, forgiveness, reconciliation, repair and finding new directions and new places. And then there was the absolute SWEET proposal for marriage that Hoo Joon made to Guenyoung followed by that signature kiss of Hoo Joon's to the woman that he so loved. I can hear the girls squealing in the crowd and the guys with wide smiles on their faces thinking---“Now that’s how you do it!!!”

The official soundtrack was also deep and varied in the amount and type of songs played but it was splashy and fun, with great lyrics and great beats, and they all brought a lightness and happiness to the whole drama.

A note of caution to those who have not seen this drama yet: The periphery stories of Jae Joon and In Hyung felt like bad side dishes through most of the drama and most of you will really hate the character of Jae Joon, but it all worked out lovely in the end---you’ll see.

This was one of the rare K-Dramas that I wish they would make a Season 2. I know Choi Tae Joon and Choi Soo Young both have significant others in their real lives but these two really had some amazing chemistry with each other on-screen. I really believe that if they did not have other people in their real lives that what we saw on screen would have been even hotter 🔥🔥🔥. This started out as a 7.5 and rocketed all the way past 10 into the stratosphere 💙💚💛💜

Main leads were fine, really disliked In Hyeong.

The toxic character In Hyeong needed major psychiatric care. This needed to be addressed because she caused a great deal of pain to those around her. I never for a second felt any sympathy for her. The last place she needed to be was trying to be an idol star. Any kind of job would be hard for someone like her that wasn’t being treated for her mental illness. JJ never handled it properly, she needed counseling and medication therapy. She had two suicide attempts and she was never put into a lockdown unit.

Neither JJ or Hoo Joon had a loving family to turn to for support when they needed it. That was something that Geun Yeong had. Not only did she have family but also close trusting friends.

No structure, no buildup, no personalities

It sounds like a good premise, and from the parts I have seen the acting was decent and there was the occasional nice scene. BUT:

- the pacing and development was all over the place. There seemed to be absolutely no coherency between episodes as to what happened when. The leads just randomly go back and forth between scene swere they like each other/develop feelings slowly, and scenes where they are either indifferent to each other or outright vile and spitefull.

- the romance didn't work for me. Basically before they got together we had three kinds of interactions. The ones where they were nice to each other/interested in each other, the ones were they were neutral or oftentime ssomewhat bad but without bad intentions, and the ones were they treated the other actively bad, oftentimes intentional and without any apparent reason for that.
One of the main Problems of the show was that the neutral scenes tended towards negativity/them treating each other kinda bad. Which ciuld have still worked, except we got about as many sweet/interested scenes as scenes were they activaly attacked/sabotaged/mistreated each other. Just not believable that any real relationship would srping forth frkm that.

- the show wasted hughe amounts of time on flashbacks and the secondary couple. They were not well executed or writen, and they, together with most of the ML's backstory could have just been cut and replaced by generics, and the show would be better for it.

- the lead characters really lacked buildup and personalities. They basically had no live outside working, getting drunk and having issues with their past. No hobbies and barely any friends/relations, and those that existed were badly writen and had very little screentime.

- The FL's beeing the "number 1 anti fan" was simply not there. Yes, she disliked him. But the only way in which the show shows her as Nr.1 anti fan before the reality show parts starts is that she ONLY antifan we see. Period. Like they didn't even have her on Message boards/chatrooms or anything with other anti fans. Everyone except her and the SML seems to love the ML, no opossition whatsoever.

Overall the show was just plain bad, and I recommend strongly not to waste time on it

So I sat down earlier this week to start ep 15 and realized...I don't want to finish this drama, lol. I went into Anti-Fan with the mindset that I didn't really care if it was going to be tropey or poorly written. I was going to let the drama take me where it wanted to go and enjoy the journey.

And up until ep 14, that was enough.

Going into ep 15, however, I found myself dreading having to watch anymore. I had zero interest in the story or the characters at that point, and sitting through an hour of them no longer appealed to me. I think this was due to a few things. 1) I'd gotten all of the enjoyment out of the drama that I was going to, and I was ready to move on to something else. 2) Ep 14 and the problems it created for the story had finally set in and I was suddenly feeling a lot more aware of the dramas flaws. 3) My currently watching-list has gotten a lot longer than I really like it to be, so I think my brain was screaming 'PLEASE DROP SOMETHING FOR THE SAKE OF MY SANITY!', and this drama isn't exactly at the top of my list of favorites, so it's the one my brain decided had to go.

Looking at this drama critically, it's not something you would watch because of great storytelling or compelling characters or stunning visuals. This is the sort of drama you watch when you want to turn off the critical side of your brain. The thing is, in order to enjoy a 'bad' drama (or book or movie or western television show or anything really), it has to do a sufficient job of distracting you from it's flaws. And while this drama did a decent job of doing so through ep 13, ep 14 brought said flaws into stark relief. Once that happened, there was really no going back to the enjoyment and forward motion I had been experiencing before.

A couple of other users suggested in the comments that this drama should be viewed in two parts, ep 1-13 and ep 14-16, and I have to agree. Maybe if you do, you'll be able to watch the final two episodes.

Personally, I just couldn't be bothered.
