Wanjeon PERFECT!
If you're looking for a drama with revenge. Crazy twist. Romances. Healthy and Broken friendships. Chaebol genre... this is the drama for you.You will definitely boil yourself with anger and frustration which is a good thing as the characters did an outstanding job portraying their roles.
I'm honestly proud of the villains as I believe this is their first time acting as a bad person.
Song Ha-Yoon was on next level!
I knew her from the drama 'Fight for My Way' and I love her character there. She's the bestest friend who's considerate. Kind. Helpful and supportive. And seeing her in this role has definitely shocked me. She demonstrated her emotions and actions so well. I honestly don't even know how to describe it. It's Indescribable. Before writing this, I read an article about how she struggled and that she's usually alone to better immerse her character in. She struggled significantly. Her villain character deserves an award. I'm so proud.
Nonetheless, the plot of this drama is good!
I love the cast. The frustration with the villains triggered me mentally and physically but this showcases how they can perform their roles.
The ending was AMAZING.
I LOVE THE ENDING.
It's a WANJEON ENDING.
The main couple of course, was amazing too. I love their romance and their chemistry. I'm just really proud of the villains. But it's nice because it's like all in one. You get everything in one drama.
The jealous fake best friend who wants everything because she's jealous and that she believes she deserves all the love and care in the world. And not Jiwon.
This was worth the wait!!!!
The cast and crew deserved an award!
Looking forward to it!
Thank you for your hard work.
I wish them the best in their future endeavors.

DON'T EVER MISS IT! RUSH AND WATCH
Hello, y'all.A little confession to make ... I have seen over 3k kdramas, movies, shows, etc in addition to Cdramas, Jdramas, Tdramas and Thaidramas, and have read all kinds of novels (or should I call them webtoons?). Anyways, what am saying is that I am not a newbie to kdramas. God knows I have seen my fair share of them --- all genres.
HOWEVER, this is the first time I am moved to make a review about a drama! Listen y'all, this drama is 1 in a million drama so far released in 2024, (by jove, I have seen A LOT this year alone).
1. The STORY is unique in it's own ... though some may argue it resembles PMR (perfect marriage revenge), but to me that's rubbish. Apart from the revenge genre, it gat nothing to do with PMR.
2. The CAST are .... OMG ... What!? Their acting is top notch. Everybody interpreted their roles well.
3. The genres in the drama was well interpreted. Revenge was delivered HOT! Romance between ML and FL is out of this world. You could turn such romance to a prayer point of future marriage prospect. I mean who wouldn't want such an understanding man as a partner in real life? Jealousy/backbiting was well delivered. Narcissism and overindulgence was well delivered, etc
4. The cinematography was Ok, though not perfect, but is unique itself.
Over all folks, if you are yet to see this drama, please rush, download and watch. A lot of life lessons is thought here. Trust me, you don't want to miss it for any reason!!!

why you should watch this
so if you have read the webtoon you already know that jiwon and yihyuk will end up together and so far it's a really good drama but I want to tell you why you shouldn't watch it because if your for example if your sensitive you maybe should choose another drama because it kinda does have sexual content but also not because they kiss and sleep together in it so if your sensitive you shouldn't watch it but also the pros of this series is that if your a big fan of revenge drama's this is the drama just for you because it has everything from business love to flashbacks of them together in the past it almost have everything we love (for me) so if you don't have a series to watch you need to watch this drama and I promise you won't be disappointed with it please like my review and I hope it was helpful if your wondering to watch this dramaWas this review helpful to you?

Revenge is a dish best served cold... loved it!
mix of romance + thriller + justice in one bag.First... again Park Min Young (Ji-Won) delivered an outstanding performance.
Since ep 1 I was cheering for her success and felt her dispair with the endless betrayals from her loved ones.
You can see her physical appeareance so fragile... it was very well done.
Na In Woo (Ji Hyeok), amazing partner in crime to have... he was instrumental in helping Ji Won get back what was stolen from her.
Now .. the bad guys... I hated them since day 1.... both the husband and the best friend... very well done for the actors that I found so hypocrite and sneaky ....
Overall... I was looking forward for the next episode... and I am very satisfied with the ending and how everything was wrapped up.
Would I recommend it ? YES
Would I watch it again ? YES
That says it all.

Your biggest enemy is a reliable close friend!
This was the first experience of watching an ongoing K-drama for me, and honestly, I was not satisfied. I think it's better to watch a good drama than just experience watching ongoing.First of all, the main characters were not attractive to me; they didn't even play well in my opinion.Ji Won was not friendly and loveble enough. Ji Hyuk was very overrated and his charm was exaggerated, while he was very ordinary and had no charisma. The love between these two was soulless and artificial.
Song Ha Yoon was the best.She played very strongly. This difficult role and its psychological characteristics were real and attractive. This is perhaps the only positive point of this drama that was able to show the fact relatively concretely that sometimes your biggest enemy is a reliable close friend!
Min Hwan's character was almost well designed; a combination of naivety and meanness.
The whole story seemed to be empty, and from one point on, it was not clear exactly what the issue was, and I prefer not to say anything about the other two couples in the story!

Overhyped and Disappointing
Going into this, there had already been clips all over social media and people were super excited about the drama, but personally it was a flop. Park Min Young has a tendency to choose manhwa adaptations which is fine but they all kinda feel the same. This drama in particular was quite click baity. If you go off of just the clips, you would think that it's fast paced and exciting but it is the complete opposite. The background and flashbacks took forever to complete. There wasn't a particular OST that stood out. In general, everything was kinda meh.The FL (who is supposed to be the protagonist) makes quite a few false promises to the audience that she's going to chage her fate but it always somehow ends up being ML who saves her. FL becomes quite boring at one point and ML was the only thing making me continue the drama. Unfortunately, he also gets kinda boring towards the end. Not to mention the weird pacing at the end with the random ex-fiance arc.
The actors were great but I did notice there was a tendency to overexaggerate emotions or expressions. I think it might have been due to the fact that this did originate from a manhwa, but I felt that it could have been less cartoonish/comical. There were moments where either FL or SuMin went kyaaaa and I lost it. Honestly, the only character I found half believable was actually Park Min Hwan and the mom.

Really great drama!
This drama was amazing. Had me hooked from the first episode. The actors played their part really well, especially the ones who played the villains. There weren't any episode that's boring. I usually skip through episodes when I'm watching dramas but this drama had me on the edge. I needed to see every detail and event that was to take place.Music was also wonderful! Loved that they had that episode with BTS music💜
All the other songs played in the show was really great. I literally saved all already.

How April 12, 2023 is completely different now.
So, the writer of this review is a person who has a lot of free time, who has read both webnovel and webtoon, so I would like to say that despite knowing every part and twist, it has not bored me at any point. I can say that this was a very good adaptation of the webnovel.The things I want to highlight about the drama-
1. DIRECTION AND SCRIPT WRITING:
+These two things are the main pillars of any series. As the novel has 188 chapters but the writer has covered it very well in 16 episodes.
+And the director's direction is commendable in the behind the scene, he is so clear about his vision that this scene will be like this or that...
2.CASTING:
+Starting with Kang Jiwon, Park Minyoung gave her 100% to the character, She played both sides, On one side a helpless woman and on the other side you can see a woman who can fight back till the end you can see her character growing till the end. You can say this is her comeback series.
+Now Yoo Jihyuk, if you watched 2D1N then you would know that both Na In Woo and Yoo Ji Hyuk are very different from each other, the way he maintained a plain face was quite nice. And his heavy voice adds a different charm to Yoo Ji Hyuk's character.
+Park Minhwan, till now many people knew him as Gwenchana but not anymore, now Merry Me is also in the race, Joke's aside but Lee Yi Kyung has played Minhwan very well, especially in Episode 14, In the series he played both funny and scary sides and portrayed them very well
+Jeong Sumin, you could say this series couldn't exist without her, if you hate her it means she played her role as an actor perfectly, Song Hae Yoon the way she perfectly portrayed the manipulative, ignorant, obsessive, jealous and crazy sides of Sumin through the entire drama truly deserves an award.
+Whenever Yoo Hee Yeon appeared on screen, she brought a different vibe. It felt as if Choi Gyuri was living the character.
+Baek Eun Ho, even though he got less screen time, he did not disappoint, even though the screen time was less, the chemistry between Choi Gyu Ri and Lee Gi Kwang was very good, one who talks a lot and the other who listen her, they portrayed it very well.
+Yang Joo Ran And Lee Suk Joon Both are the mature character in the drama, and done it very well. Mr. Lee nagging made his character a little different and enjoyable, or should i say Ms. Yang changed him...
+And finally, Our precious gem Kim Kyung Wook, his parts makes the shot perfect. You will get angry at this character, but as much as this character makes you angry, it also makes you laugh and sometimes even feel pity for him. But no matter what you say, he was the only person who is always there for Sumin.
=All the supporting actors did a great job but I can't highlight them too much otherwise there are chances of a lot of spoilers.
3.SOUND DESIGN AND MUSIC:
+The sound design of the drama is very good which enhances the intensity of the scene, And the 5 soundtrack makes the drama beautiful...
4.NEGATIVE POINT:
+ Sometimes it feels like everything is happening a little hurriedly.
+Several still cuts were released but later that parts cut from the drama.
In the end I would like to say that this show will keep you engaged from the beginning, Yes sometimes you might feel that why makers are diverting to new characters there is no point but everything happens for a reason, And the ending has been executed very well, which is very rare to be in the revenge drama.
JIWON AND JIHYUK BOTH LOST THEIR FIRST CHANCE BUT LIFE GAVE THEM ANOTHER CHANCE AND THEY LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER, AND BECAME EACHOTHERS SOLID LAND.......

Never missed an episodes since day 1 it was aired!
Finished watching an amazing show of the year! The entire cast was perfect for their roles. Initially, I felt it was strange to see Mr. Gwenchana in a serious role, but after a few episodes, both antagonists started making my blood boil. The acting was awesome, and I want to give a special shoutout to Park Min-Young, Na In-Woo, Lee Yi-Kyung, and Song Ha-Yoon for their exceptional performances.It was seriously amazing to watch this show, and I had been waiting for new episodes since January 1st. I was dying out of curiosity to know what would happen next. This show is a MUST WATCH! It has an amazing plot that keeps you curious from start to end.

No quería comparar pero ...
Este drama tiene todo lo que le faltó a Perfect marriage revenge.No es que Perfect marriage revenge este mal, sino que le faltó corazón, le faltó ese algo que Marry my husband logra perfectamente y es engancharte desde el inicio, no te aburres para nada, quieres que los episodios duren más porque está tan bien logrado todo que te metes en la historia y quieres que todo le salga bien a la prota, te enojas y sufres con ella, pero tambien te alegras en los momentos de felicidad; con esa segunda oportunidad quieres verlos felices y que a los desgraciados que le hicieron la vida imposible quieres ver que les pase lo peor, y creo que todo eso se logró tambien por las excelentes actuaciones de todo el elenco. Cada uno supo llevar su papel, que maravilla.
•Me encantaron los personajes principales y los secundarios.
•Y también salí super fatisfecha con el final. Hacía mucho tiempo no veía un final tan bueno, se tomaron su tiempo y no se ve todo a las prisas como pasa en la mayoria de dramas.

Idk
Idk what i was expecting from this movie but it was surprisingly better than i expected.Although the first 2 episodes were a little bit confusing but it all came through understanding.
The acting was marvelous. But this i was really expecting from Park Min Young since she is one of my favourites female korean actors. I loved Na In Woo masculinity and his acting. But the most i loved it was that in had a really good ending with all.
The ending was ''patiently'' ended instead of quickly thrown away.
Overall i think is really worth watching it because it holds up the interest and in has no boring episodes.

Well written revenge drama
The drama was great. Having a very toxic friendship can also ruin a person to a greatest extend. The husband and song ha yun deserves a appreciation for sure. That woman got on my nerves so much i wanted to break the screen and beat the f out of her. Such a great actress. I saw her in fight for my way and i never knew she can act this well damn. She deserves all the popularity she’s receiving from this show. Go ahead and give this show a watch, its overall very good and i didnt really find any drag anywhere !Was this review helpful to you?
