Comments

Fatma Dec 03 2025 3:03 am Until episode 80 the FL is married to the 2nd ML :) way too dragged!! She almost had nothing to do with the ML from the start of the series.

saeng-il chugha hamnida May 23 2025 7:04 am i skipped a lot of entire epi the plot was insignificant and very poor good that i skipped a lot so didnt waste my precious time my final ratings 2/10 and of course no recommendations

Min_jah Apr 18 2025 8:11 pm Thanks ! I applaudi at the end. Ep.125

Paschalville Apr 10 2025 5:52 am Anyone know who plays Lee Yoo Seon (birth mother of Dr.’s son). She has brain tumor.

EssBoog Apr 08 2025 6:54 pm Just watched the ending. Thought it was realistic and dignified.

Thea Apr 05 2025 2:41 pm Why are they only showing one episode this week(ep123) and why are they dragging this own? Dan-Soo grandmother is one hateful person and filled with bitterness and it no wonder she is ill. Also Ji-Na is one spoil bi*#@, how can see move into someone else home and demand that they don't go into her room, fix meal only for herself and demand privacy and with her father's company going under she should not burn bridges that she will have to cross later.

Mandem Apr 03 2025 8:03 pm Can Dan Soo be any more irritating. He started out being a jerk, got better but nows a whoose who wants to raise someone else's kid

EssBoog Apr 02 2025 4:50 pm Now Dan Soo gets stabbed with 4 episodes left to go. This is ridiculous.

Rosalie Apr 02 2025 7:38 am Anyone know who plays Lee Yoo Seon (birth mother of Dr.’s son). She has brain tumor.

Remmy52 Apr 01 2025 10:03 pm Well I'm ready for grandmother to go ahead and die. Her character taking this dead son dying to the extreme. Like doesn't she realize when she dies dan soo and gong hee will have no obstacles. She need to reflect on her actions. Her son would be alive if she would have let him live his life in peace

EssBoog Apr 01 2025 4:46 pm There have been episodes this week, they are up to Episode 121. Could be that your streaming provider has not loaded them yet.

Kat Mar 27 2025 10:50 pm Why have there been no episodes this week? And thry added 6 more episodes the only reason I'm asking i want to finish this awful show ? Not been that great let's get it over with

Amy Mar 23 2025 4:56 pm This series is so much about just how a boy meet a girl kind of story. It is about a regular dysfunctional family. The story of the grandma and the mother heartwarming and not too boring as others mentioned. It is indeed a blessing to have a caring and wise grandma. I find it meaningful to have the grandma and mother relationship out of all the chaos by the main lead and co actors and actress. It also teach a lesson on life and death, and learning to let go the one you love, holding on to the choice that you choose. Worth watching!

Matty Mar 21 2025 3:47 pm I wish that hateful old woman (Dan Soo’s grandmother) would die already! I absolutely hate her!!! ??

SAfa Mar 21 2025 7:28 am Koo Dan-Soo is almost obsessed with her. i pity Maeng Kong-Hee didn't realize....

Sushi87 Mar 18 2025 1:47 pm I agree the Mother and Grandma story was unecessary.

Was surprised that Gonghee and Min Gi marriage happened in the middle. Now they are rushing Gonghee and Dan Soo romance.

Anna Mar 07 2025 6:02 pm It’s quite good but it is way toooo much about the Mother and Her mother. That’s boring and make nothing good for the drama.

Arnob Mar 06 2025 1:15 am Can someone tell me how many months did they jump to their pregnancy on episode 99? Got confused!

Totallytwisted Feb 25 2025 1:05 am Kang Ji-Na should be having a Baby by Now!!!!!

As many times Seo Min-Ki goes over to sleep with her. What a strange Drama.

If you don't want to be married then end it.......!

furo Feb 22 2025 9:55 am Poor Lady Han (Gong Hee's mom). Her character always cry.

TDS Feb 17 2025 4:51 pm wow I'm surprised at the roles when again Lee Yeon-Doo and Kim Sa-Kwon, Park Ha-Na are over age. Happy for the New actor Park Sang-Nam. Good Luck with the next drama.

  Baby and story is destressing.

Park hana is my my fan Feb 14 2025 10:19 pm Park Ha Na doesn't suit on this role. I think badass protagonist, grey character or antihero character with a tragic past is her forte. What a waste of time she invested in this drama.

Tim Feb 08 2025 5:36 pm The lead characters either are bad actors or just don’t have any chemistry at all, they are not able to fully express their emotions making it hard to empathize with them, overall drama is very slow

Sandra lee Jan 22 2025 4:43 pm Good twists but taking way too long . Releasing too few episodes a week!! Ready to quit!! I’m at ep 73.

Kaka Jan 21 2025 3:00 am Min Gi so weird. Wonder if he'll get a happy ending at the end.

The grandmother is villianized so much, it wouldn't be easy for her to end up in good terms with the rest at the end of the drama.

Sadly, these long daily dramas almost always end up "happy ending" not that I don't like happy endings but the problem is there's no character development, they just suddenly change so they'll all be understanding & loving at the end, happy family ending.

Remmy52 Jan 15 2025 10:35 am This drama is really just bad all way around. They casted the leading roles wrong in my opinion. You have two older actors and two younger actors in weird relationships. Ji na is a bully and min gi is same w Dan soo. The grandmother and her secretary just go around threatening and screaming. The storyline is not moving at a nice pace.

Mona Jan 15 2025 8:44 am This drama acting is so immature, there is so much yelling, screaming and hitting which I do it understand among adults in Korean culture. They can’t communicate with words unless is hitting or screaming, or insulting each other, very violent behavior, and verbal abusive. As the drama progresses I thought it will get better but it just got worse. The cast in this drama is not good looking and to top it off, I jus do not understand why Korean culture is obsessed to portray relationship between older women with young men or viceversa. I am watching this drama because there is no new many good dramas to watch until my favorite drama plays on weekends so this is a family drama that I skip a lot of scenes because of the yelling, screaming and hitting. Supposedly these character played are educated people but they look so vulgar that you will think they were born in shantytown.

Madeleine Dec 21 2024 10:08 pm I like family dramas and dailies. This is a good one. Yes, some tropes and the plot gets far fetched at times, but that for me is part of the fun. I like all the actors. I think they are doing a great job.

chingu Dec 13 2024 2:22 am why did this drama stopped airing?

ColaCola Dec 04 2024 8:31 am You guys should message Lee Eun-Hyung on Instagram. He responds to the messages and he is really nice to his fans. I've been watching his series and this one is different from all the characters he portrayed. He really did a great job here.

Monaliza Nov 28 2024 11:27 pm Listening to you makes me feel like my ears will rot away hahaha LOL.

Kang Ji Na's character is annoying but I'm not yet as annoyed as I was with Jin Na Young (from Suji & Uri the drama before this), but I feel like I will soon.

Maybe I'm not yet that annoyed because she actually doesn't get all the things she wants (besides winning the contest) I mean she can't manipulate other characters (yet). Actress the played Na Young was also really good.

But when looking at the couple JiNa & Minki, it so annoying coz why involve other people when they clearly want each other. Well it's JiNa's greed etc. & MinKi should move on, but still he'll probably hurt Gong Hee later on.

Raphael Nov 27 2024 5:47 pm Some of the comments focus on Kang Myeong-Ja. I, too, understand how unlikable of a character she is. I watched a bit and felt turned off. When I found out that Yang Mi-Kyung act in this Kdrama, I was excited. I have watched her involvement in kdrama for years, and I have admired and respected her skill and talent. However, when I watched "My Merry Marriage", I was quite saddened, angry, and disappointed. It is not so much of her acting ability because I could not tell what exact description did the superiors want her to portray. It is the more obnoxious character that I felt turned off. When she has played a mother figure in kdramas, she came off rather warm, compassionate, and had a bit of charm at most. She knew how to play emotionally sad moments well, and I felt the same feelings as it was happening in the scenes. When I watched her new role, it brings me great pain because I remembered how my parents had treated me so badly to the point of abuse. I remember my first real impression of her acting was in Dae Jang-Geum, which is one of my favorites.

Sometimes, if she is portraying the role of an obnoxious person and doing it well as goes by the script and the screenwriter intention, she did well. However, it still saddens me.

As to her looks, I know a Korean whose hairstyle is very similar and is a little younger than her. As to anything else, she kind of me reminds me of a Korean that I deal with regularly and has a different personality. The person that I deal with is domineering but not obnoxious. She cares for the best interests but does not always express in a healthy way.

Finally, I still admire and respect Yang Mi-Kyung. As she, a fellow Catholic like me, I see her as a sister in Christ. However, I do not know her personally. Yet, as Christians, we are still bound by the unity of our faith and belief in God. Now, I am getting a little personal..Hehe. Yet, I do not wish to be too discouraged.

Cole Nov 19 2024 11:34 pm Does anyone know why Audrey is referred to as "sleepwalker"? There is no context to support this. I'm wondering if it's really street walker. There were questions in the beginning about what kind of woman Audrey was.

sf Nov 17 2024 2:43 am Kang Myeong-Ja is the most annoying character here. The actress's look, combined with her character, pisses me off.

saengil chuka hamnida Nov 16 2024 7:20 am havent finished the predecessor suji uri yet am halfway and its getting really good just watched the epi where mom encountered her long abandoned daughter it was a teary epi wow really good, about this drama i wasnt gonna start it cz park hana is in there am not fan of hers and am getting lots of fun with suji uri by mistake i started this drama and liked the 1st epi especially the fight of the 2 older woman and the plot is very well defined in the 1st epi so i got interested and will continue watching

Poet Nov 05 2024 3:32 pm Sorry, I couldn't get past watching the first few episodes. Almost all of the characters act juvenile or obnoxious. I have watched new episodes briefly and nothing has changed. 120 episodes! No thanks.

Ajumma Oct 29 2024 7:41 pm The alteration store owner is one of the main character of the story. I think she is Koo-Dan Soo's mother. But why is she not on the list of actors/actresses?

I agree with most of your comments - Myeong-Ja's character and acting is really very annoying.

Fff Oct 18 2024 6:44 pm I’m sorry but the 2nd lead actress looks too old to play that role. She honestly looks at least 45+. Already disliking her role and acting/ the male lead tries so hard to look cute and it is not working. He’s actually bad

Cha Seo Bo Oct 08 2024 3:17 pm Isn't that alteration store owner Choi Su Rin? Don't see her listed above

Dayli Oct 01 2024 12:51 am The pv is so cute ><

Aimen Sep 04 2024 1:44 pm Excited
