Saved Me From a K-Drama Slump

I've been in a slump lately, with mediocre drama after mediocre drama. But I'm happy to report that this show sucessfully won me back.

Perfect Marriage Revenge is a K-Drama based off of an ongoing (almost finished) webtoon. I've read the webtoon and I enjoyed it well enough. And who doesn't love the contract marriage trope? So I decided to give the drama a shot, and I'm so glad I did.

It isn't exactly a faithful adaptation, while a lot of the same things happen in the two, there's a different order of events, which I personally think flows much better in the drama. The drama also has better development of the relationships and stronger characterization. I enjoyed both Yi-Ju and Do-Guk's characters significantly more here than I did in the Webtoon.

The last show I watched Sung Hoon in, I wasn't a huge fan. So, I was delightfully surprised by how much I loved his portrayal of Do-Guk here. And Ji-Yu couldn't have been cast better. The two of them worked phenomenally together and their romance was defiantly the highlight for me!

The revenge plot is incredibly convoluted, and the relationship dynamics are a tangled web that's nearly impossible to unwind, in the most delightful way possible. While I have seen some people complain about how complicated it was I felt the show was well enough written that I was never lost. Every scene progressed the plot in some way and there was certainly never a dull moment.

Every character was perfectly cast. I loved who I was supposed to love and hated who I was supposed to hate. Which is a feat not all dramas can accomplish. In fact, I'm not sure I've hated a villain this much in a good long while.

The only thing that's keeping me from giving this show a perfect score is episode one. The show started out a bit slow and I didn't like the characters much. It wasn't until maybe the last twenty minutes of the episode that it got me. By the end of episode one I was invested enough to keep watching. And by the beginning of episode two I was 100% sold on it. I enjoyed every second of the next eleven episodes and would have gladly watched more.

Is the show complicated? Yes. Unrealistic? Yeah. Is it over the top dramatic? Absolutely.
But it's exactly what its supposed to be. I'm going to keep recommending it, and I will without a doubt be back for a rewatch.
