Linky
Because This is My First Life is more thoughtful and pensive than most romantic comedies, but there is still a good dose of comic moments and fun. Much of the comedy comes from the quirkiness of the main characters particularly the super analytical and closed off Se Hee and how he interacts with those around him. I enjoyed this drama finding the characters likable and well acted. I enjoyed the side stories pretty much equally to the main love story. The story explores issues about marriage, love and relationships and I could relate and feel for the problems that the couples faced. The last couple episodes were really touching and had me in tears. The 2 side relationships are more realistic than the main love story and I have experienced aspects of their relationships in my own life so I really felt for them - particularly the conflicts that come up between long term couples like Ho Rang and Won Seok.
Though I did find the the main love story amusing, I think it's the weakest part of this drama. The premise is so out there that I never fully bought into it and never really understood why they had to get married. It made way for some funny situations, but never really made sense to me. There is a slow halting awkwardness to the mannerisms of the 2 leads that is in character, but can be frustrating to watch. They look like they are sleepwalking from scene to scene for much of the drama. The actors manage to pull it off enough to make it worth it to me, but it did drag a lot when they conversed. Every sentence of their dialogue is punctuated by long halting dramatic pauses that don't reveal much. They had their share of sparky chemistry moments. But I looked for some happy flow in their scenes together and that was missing here. I am not sure if I missed the scenes that made me understand why they fall for each other. Their scenes together often seem like an excuse to make quiet observations about life, love and marriage. But overall the drama is quirky, funny and thought provoking enough to make for an entertaining viewing experience.
