I feel that the story was fairly predictable and perhaps cliche, however not bad. To sum up my opinion: the drama wasn't edging me on. I didn't feel the need to watch the next episode immediately and It wasn't hard waiting a week for the next one to come out. However, I enjoyed my time while I was watching it. It had many cliche drama elements, but on that note it wasn't bad. Just predictable.
The actors were were likable enough. Although I can't say their acting blew me away. The best part, in my opinion, was the lead actress. She did a good job. I also liked her character. She had a backbone. The music was okay. Fairly catchy. I am humming it as I write.
It was a good drama.
If your looking for something with classic drama elements, kpop, and is reliable stereotypical drama that you know won't go crazy (ever watched a drama that started off good, but then you're like 'what am I watching?') this is the drama for you!

Story :
I understand that it's a slice of life kind of story, so I didn't except a lot of grand events happening or a lot of twist, but the problem is, this drama has almost none. It seems like I'm watching the same episodes all over again but differently. Things go on really slowly and there are no twist or whatsoever, it's so predictable that it becomes meaningless to watch. The only thing that could have made the story a little more interesting was when Dong Bi disappeared, they could have emphasized about that or made something out of that, but they wrapped it up so carelessly. The relationship about Jung Hoon and Hye Yoon was interesting in the beginning, but it's always about the same thing, them and their mothers, and it doesn't develop in any way, they are always going round and round. I mean, they are the main characters and the story itself resolve around them, shouldn't them be a little bit more entertaining ? Even Dong Bi and Ki Joon's story is more interesting, and the only reason why I'm still watching this drama is because I want to find out if they'll be together or not at the end. And this drama has too much side stories that sometimes it becomes confusing, and some of them is more emphasized than the main story (of Hye Yoon and Jung Hoon).
Well, this drama still has its good points. What interested me at first was that it was going to talk about the hardships a soon-to-be married couple have to face, it was quite unusual but common topic. I think they delivered the message quite well, and I like how they made Jung Hoon/Hye Yoon wedding in parallel with Ki Joon's. Also, Deul Ja was impressing, she portrayed very well the typical lower class's mother of asian society who really love their children, but think wrongly of what is right for them. I also liked how they showed the importance and decisive influence of family in the wedding process because dramas usually don't really highlight this side. Same, I liked the solid strings between the two daughters and their mother, and the mother's strong character who'll do anything for her daughters, doesn't matter how other might think of her. Well, the storyplot in itself could've been pretty interesting, too bad that it wasn't exploited well.
Cast :
I hesitated to begin to drama at first because I don't really like Jung Soo Min's acting, but I still wanted to give it a try. I still found her acting not natural, her expressions are either excessive or lack in expressing her feelings. Her and Sung Joon's acting is awkward, I can't feel that they love each other in the drama. I think the message of the drama is that love can beat the hard reality when it's strong enough, but without feeling the love, it is not really believable.
Some characters were, in my opinion, useless in this drama. For example, the drama could have worked without Deul Rae and Min Ho, I still can't understand their role in this drama. Of course they are cute and all, but they aren't really linked to the main storyplot apart from the fact that one is the aunt of the main character and the other one is a friend, I guess, of the other main character. Some goes for the ex-boyfriend, if they weren't going to make a good use of him, why did they even put him in ?
The characters didn't really evolved apart from Deul Ja and I think a little of Dong Bi. I've seen some dramas of Lee Mi Sook (playing Deul Ja) before and I always thought that she played mother's role very well. A lot of people found her character annoying in this drama but I think she portrayed well her role, that is as I said earlier, the traditionnal mother who thinks that only well-off man can bring happiness to her children, but slowly realize that perhaps money isn't everything. Also, I think that Dong Bi is the only character that moves on when all the other one are sticked at the same spot. Actually, I think she's the only character I liked in this drama.
Overall :
'Can we get married' is a watchable drama, you can watch it if you have nothing to watch, but don't except an excellent storyplot. It can be pleasant to watch if you bear with all the excessive tempers of some characters and don't find them annoying. The topic it talks about is actually pretty interesting, and if you want to learn more on how asian community works, you can give it a try, it shows quite a lot a actual facts. However, in my opinion, this is not a drama I'd watch again.

Story: 2ND BEST MELODRAMA I HAVE EVER SEEN!! I agree with the other reviewer its 11/10 (yes it's that good!). In K dramas mostly the first 4 episodes tend to be very slow, yet in STH from the very 1st episode you're already excited, happy, sad, angry, pissed, curious, hooked and addicted !! You'll experience all those emotions from the 1st episode and that won't stop all through out the drama... Your feelings will not settle down and you won't get a break, the story brings out all your emotions in a very intense way that's why STH is not a drama that you'll forget you simply can't (those emotions will always be engraved in my heart).
Acting: 100/10 the acting part is what brought this story to life even though it's a super melodramatic story yet you'll still believe in every little detail and feel it deep inside your heart... The actors were the core of the story I felt each one of them, the good ones captured my heart and the bad ones kept me screaming and cursing all the time (I literarily wanted to go there and kill the stepmother and her daughter my anger towards them almost cost me a new screen). I loved Kwon Sang Woo before STH but I love him even more now (Man this guy can deliver such intense emotions he keeps your heart beating all the time and breathing becomes a difficult task) The only character that I didn't like Jung Su's father (he was annoying and useless).
Music: OMG I know now why everyone talks about STH's OST I loved every song every melody specially (Only Belong To Me) I just can't get enough of this song. The OSTs in STH are big contributors (along with the actors's performance) they both provoke your feelings extremely.
Rewatch: it might not be a rewatchable drama to most people but personally I would gladly watch it again some day cus this drama stole my heart.
Overall: As a K drama fan STH is a must watch drama... even if melodramas aren't you're type you still need to watch it. This drama is a MASTERPIECE and not watching it means you are missing out on one of the best K dramas that has ever been produced (it's now one of my top 5). 100% must watch !!

After seeing so many dramas, I've developed this sense of prediction what will happen next in most of those I've been watching and i assume many of you did as well. This drama is everything but predictable.
Many unexpected events occurred and it made me wonder what for God's sake I've just seen. It has a bit special sense of humor, so it might not suite everyone's taste, at the moments it gets even weird, but it definitely has its own seal. I have to admit, i haven't seen a lot of family dramas, but this one was totally my coup of tea. Although I enjoy watching comedies, it's really, really hard to make me laugh out loud. I didn't have this kind of problem while watching this one.
The story was really heartwarming and it gave me the feeling of family warmth, which is the purpose of family drama i guess. Characters were unique and well designed. The story gave enough of space for every character and a chance for us to meet them all and hear their stories. Actors were good as well, especially the kids. Kamiki Ryunosuke's acting was at the moments odd, but overall, it was great and he was a nice surprise. Tanabe Seiichi was amazing and i couldn't imagine anyone else in this role. I really liked the character he portrayed - a totally unusual father with a totally unusual actions. The supporting characters were also amazing and led us to many hilarious moments. I really liked that after each episode, family was growing bigger and bigger. Even the supernatural part with a ghost of late mother was very well matched and had a great meaning behind the funny scenes.
Music was also very good, especially the opening, and nothing in this drama was unnecessary.
As for rewatch, i'm a rewatcher, i usually rewatch dramas i've liked sometimes more than once and this one i'll surely see again!
Anyway, if you are the fan of Japanese dramas, i suggest you give this one a try - it has that Japanese touch and sense of reality - although in this drama you might find some parody elements as well.
I hope you'll enjoy watching it!

*Actors: Very decent. There was chemistry between main characters, but it wasn't as great as it could be... Oh, and yes - I didn't mind their hairstyles at all so maybe that's why it was possible for me to enjoy this show(?).;P
*Overall: Truly enjoyable. Recommendation for anyone who wants some relax with smile^^
~ Cheers!

The first ep is interesting to watch until the 4 episode i'm start hating Oh Jin-Wan's (Jeong Man-Sik). I know he has a grudge over Anthony he revenge is so not fair. Every episode when Anthony start to feel relax there will be a problem arise. I'm kind of sick of it. The way the problem is solve is way to fast. It only takes 1 episode.
The music is find. The most fun part of this drama is Siwon part. How hilarious he is. We get to see a different acting of Siwon. I like his acting in the drama. When I watch Siwon part in the drama, it make me laugh a lot. Siwon oppa DAEBAK..!

I'm not a fan of Man Ok's friend, Han Ga Ryun. Her character does things carelessly/ selfishly and causes trouble pretty much every time she's on screen! Ugh!
The demon LJ director is pure evil and does his role of making you hate him throughout the series. I always wonder are people really that horrible in real life? I haven't come across them *touch-wood* Anyway, he gets what he deserves in the end! *evil grin*
The drama lacks romance scenes and has only a few 'lip-touch' kisses which are, ugh, disappointing.
Despite these most episodes are enjoyable to watch!

Whilst not a hugely influential in terms of scripting, storyline and direction; subsequent Korean superstars: Bae Yong-Jun & Choi Ji-Woo pull off their characterisation masterfully, allowing the audience to connect emotionally with the two fantastic leads in this entertaining and occasionally heartbreaking romantic melodrama.
Anyone interested in the phenomenon of 'hallyu' should take the time to watch Winter Sonata. This drama is considered to be a defining moment, bringing a brand new audience to korean television and thus instigating a new epoch in the Korean wave.

Drama Especial Serie Temporada 1: Natal Branco

The second half of the drama was not as much fun and may be interesting to people under the age of 25 or those who are still interested in philosophy. I found the second half pretty predictable plot wise, but did enjoy the struggles these young people went through.
The end was very satisfying.

The story could have been portrayed better. But in the end it was some loose ends and no chemistry. It was creepy and weird. It started well with ambitions and this urge to succeed despite of the lacking accolades and connections. But manipulation is not the way to do that. Half way through the drama and I was confused about what they really wanted to deliver.
It began really good but lost all color. I was thoroughly disappointed.
