Let's come up with who can write the worst script for a divorced couple !! *DRUM ROLE*
(JUST WATCH THE FIRST 5 EPISODES AND LEAVE IT, YOU'LL BE HAPPY, THE DRAMA ENDS )SPOILERS AHEAD :
Imagine as a writer who was struggling you come up with a VOILA idea of a divorced couple! And then suddenly you don't know what to do after the initial start and you fking struggle to finish the story.
Welcome to strangers again!
It's a flawed script at the end of the day, ex meets ex and separates again ??
What's the logic, to f88k up with viewers' minds?
With zero sense?
And they had the audacity to showcase romance in the middle of it which ends up pretty much null and void at the end.
It's a joke.
I have plenty of US and brits series If I wanna watch something so sloppy.
Too bad the acting was so good, even the direction was amazing but the script and the plot development were sh8t and for nothing.
And the side characters were clearly forced, zero chemistry!
Oh god! As much as I liked the MC and FMC's acting, I disliked pretty much everything else in the drama.
Kang So Ra and Jang Seung Jo's acting potential was wasted, everything from the classy direction, the cinematography and the BGM, all for nothing.
I feel like sl99ping this writer right now but anyway !

Pleasantly surprised.
Based on it's summary and premise I was expecting a lightweight comedy full of tropes. But this series has a surprising amount of depth. It's not your typical romcom that we've all seen 30 times before. There are some twists. There's also a lot of discussion about the difficulties in relationships, which ones are surmountable, and which ones aren't. It treats the characters like grown-ups.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Love is messy
and sometimes it isn't enough. I appreciate what the writers were trying to tell with Hara and Eun Beom's story, but they missed the mark. Especially with how highly unlikable the main characters were even the secondary couple were annoying. It was hard rooting for any of the 4 characters. I found the two females even worse than the males. That's saying a lot with how unlikable EB was. Hara needed to grow up a lot so did BW, for being celebrated lawyers both were equally awful. I think that was one of the biggest mishaps in this drama aside from the plot holes. I get the trend of making realistic dramas with flawed characters, now a days, but with how awful the world is many of the times the audience doesn't want to watch these kinds of dramas. No matter how important or intriguing they may be. I did however, like how the divorce cases Hara and Eun Beom handled paralleled their relationship. Sometimes it propelled them forward and had them learn lessons right before they reverted to being unbearable once again. Eun Beum especially felt like he was going around in circles until the very end where it seems he finally learned that he needed help and to grow as a person.I get that the writers wanted HR and EB to be human instead of cardboard cutouts of other dramas but still you got to move your characters forward or it becomes tiring for the viewer. Aside from this I did like how Eun Beom's trauma felt real, this happens in families when a tragedy happens, and I feel it's something that isn't shown or talked about a lot in society. People shut down and push everyone else away. Their defense mechanism is to run away which is what EB did. As for Oh Hara for her being a lawyer she had to be one of the nastiest, more immature fl I have seen lately. She never cared about what anyone else wanted but herself. I'll give her this tho: she finally matures in the last two episodes. For that, I was happy. And let's not talk about how nasty her best friend was, I don't even want to talk about what a waste of space this character was.
Anyways enough ranting about the characters. Now onto the plot I feel like this drama would have been better if it would have avoided the misunderstanding trope at every turn. Also, the plot moved forward only to backtrack from episode to episode. I think the writers lost the plot around ep 6. The story seemed to drag its feet from then on.
Although one tiny highlight was how the series showed that sometimes love isn't enough. No matter how much two people love each other if there's no communication or trust then it's not gonna work no matter how many times people try. If the couple is vastly different and want different things in life well then, that spells doom, sometimes it's better to let go than to hold on. And that was the root of HR and EB's story and I guess the lesson the writers wanted to leave the audience with.
The open ending fit the characters the best,honestly after eveything I can't see a happy ending for them. Maybe in the future but now? NOPE. So, I'm glad the writers went with the realistic ending and wrapped up the story fairly. For those who wanted them together, the hope is there.
Overall, I give this a 6.5and that's mostly for the acting and the OST not the writing.

Recomendo para quem se interessar em assistir um drama sobre relações humanas
Não tinha muita expectativa quando comecei a assistir a este drama. Mas inesperadamente a história foi me envolvendo. O início do drama é mais puxado para a comédia por conta da reaproximação do casal e seus desentendimentos do passado, bem como a relação de amor e ódio da outra dupla de advogados do escritório, porém com o passar dos episódios vamos acompanhando além da história pessoal dos personagens principais, a história de seus clientes e cada uma dessas histórias propõe uma reflexão sobre os relacionamentos humanos e porque casamentos eventualmente chegam ao fim.Com relação a maneira como termina o drama, li alguns comentários de espectadores desapontados com o final ou por ser considerado "final em aberto" ou "por ter sido muito raso". Na verdade, eu não achei o final raso. Estava evidente desde o início do drama que o Eun Beom carregava consigo algumas questões psicológicas que o impediam de seguir a vida, seja ao lado da Oh Ha Ra ou mesmo longe dela. Aceitar que sua condição psicológica precisa de cuidado profissional não é tão fácil. Muitas pessoas são resistentes a aceitar que precisam de ajuda profissional. E imagino que o preconceito social (especialmente na Coreia) é ainda muito forte sobre questões de saúde mental. Gostei que eles abordaram o tema, mesmo que apenas no último episódio, ele foi procurar ajuda.
No geral, gostei do drama. Recomendo para quem se interessar em assistir um drama sobre relações humanas. Não é um drama inesquecível, mas é interessante.

I kinda guessed it by it's name
I wanted it to be a guilty pleasure, you know like not a classic 5 star meal but a greasy meaty cheesy burger, I wanted it to fill my head with adrenaline, I wanted my heart to pump hot boiling blood straight to my head, something that would make giggle uncontrollably to myself, But...Well it's a big butt, I m talking about this drama, its a big expensive looking drama filled with mediocrity and dullness, especially the ML guy, what's his deal man, like FL is really nice and sweet, just have the babies and move on goddamn it,
The premise starts very promising but soon it's just bland scenes with some good romance here and there and after 7 or 8 episodes it looses even that, and just whole bunch of blandness is left and then it's a challenge for audience to finish rest of the episodes, I personally lost the challenge and skipped most of the scenes,
I don't recommend it to anybody who likes to be entertained but if you like needless challenges than have at it

Not Good Enough
Korean Drama " Strangers Again " is a law romantic drama.The series embends the divorce-family cases nicely with the main plot, though some of them weren't that interesting and got tiring to follow. The main plot, on the other hand, had some originality and the interactions of the two main leads were entertaining, as the couple's dynamics were spot on. The second couple was enjoyable as well.
However, the romance was boring and got into circles of dead end choices. The tropes that were used were boring and the drama ended up with a messy pace. The conclusion, at least, was more original compared to the rest of the love story.
The performances, finally, were all great by everyone in the cast.
So, overall, three out of ten.

ML is an uncommunicative and insensitive asshole
I'm quoting a line from someone else's Reddit comment to describe why I dropped this drama and why it's not worth your time: "I never once felt that the ml even cared a bit about the fl. He gives strong narcissistic vibes without the writing taking us fully there." This is completely true because the ml is so freaking toxic to the fl. Whatever issues the FL has, she doesn't deserve the kind of damage ML inflicts on her self-esteem without even telling her why. I really like the male actor from "The Good Detective", which is why this drama was a huge shame because it could've done so much more with its cast.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

What the actual F!!!
Okay first i was such a fan of the casts and the refreshing storyline so obviously forced myself to watch it till the very end and oh my it was disappointing af. I mean the plotholes were too many to just ignore . The ending is the most disappointing thing ive ever watched this year. I mean them not getting back together is fine but just ending it without resolving anything is just shitty writing. I dont think the writer is aware that marriage is a joint effort that both have to give 100% and not just one giving into the other. Overall disappointing is an understandment. But the actors were solid tho. And the osts were good too.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Deception
The two main actors are excellent. Kang So-ra is wonderful but the story is not exciting. There are few twists and turns and the theme lacks depth. Many of the scenes are unnecessary or poorly exploited. The personal situations of the other characters do not give Kang So-ra and Jang Seung-jo original and subtle arguments. The last scene confirmed what I feared: an unsurprising and banal ending. I felt like saying "all for this!". The series did not deserve 12 episodes. I think the writers could have made a shorter series.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

BORINGGGG !!!!
it’s just toooooooooooo boring ? I don’t even know why did I watch drama… it’s a waste of time…. I expected the main leads to get together in end but since it was written in the title itself I knew but I still watched it….I will NOT recommend anyone to watch this k-drama AT ALL!!!!!
the male lead was handsome and even the female lead was pretty…
the whole story was pretty much about after the divorce why they couldn’t live together and then in the mid the female lead tries to convince him but then in the end he just rejects him
it shows the 2nd couple (friends of the main leads) getting pregnant and married…

Romance que é necessario paciencia e compreensão do espectador
A galera está dando notas baixas para esse drama. Os protagonistas nos causam raiva porque tomam atitudes baseadas em sentimentos próprios (frequentemente infantis e sem sentido).Eu considerei o dorama bom, justamente porque traz uma necessidade do espectador ter um olhar mais adulto e empático com as situações. Os protagonistas tem opiniões muito diferentes sobre a vida, mas o amor que um tem pelo outro traz uma insistência em fazer "dar certo" a relação. Eles tem sentimentos "entendíveis ou coerentes" com suas histórias de vida.
Conclusão:
O romance mostra a necessidade de comunicação dos personagens, a importância de entender até que ponto se pode levar uma relação e que o ódio e o amor estão sempre presentes, basta ambos entenderem qual está prevalecendo.
O final do drama é ótimo, a trilha sonora é ótima, e os atores são muito lindos ;-;
