This one should go in the modern classic section. That's how good the show is.

The characters in the show are really well fleshed out. Their dynamic with each other is fantastic.

The show is funny when it wants and has a very fresh take on comedy compared to other k dramas. The show displays pathos In such heartful manner that you deeply root for each character.

It's really a very funny show

It's literally a show with no bad characters. Not one! There are no black or white textbook characters, They are human and have their flaws and even the stupidest character in this show make some sense in terms of their motivation towards their actions. And they all give a sense of comfort and security.

Generally the female centric shows kind of repel people a little cuz it can lean into being preachy. But this one's a breath of fresh air when it comes to dealing with those tropes.

Acting was great too. Han Ji Eun gives life to the amazing character Han Joo with her innocent caring and yet strong n competant mother.

Jeon Yeo been playing the stoic Lee Eun jung is witty and poignant.

Lastly Chun Woo hee was the most relatable as the writer Lim Jin Joo with her trivial struggles in Daily life.

This one. For sure. Will stay with you.

I loved the low eyebrow humor and the dialogues. I have been desperately looking for a kdrama with as fewer clichés as this one has. I can't remember the names but none of the three couples went through the same predictable stages or were rushed to some forced endings.

I definetly recommend this drama, it so unique and well written. I love kdramas but most of the kdrama creates a virtual ideal reality that u will get a happy ending just like the leads or u will meet a handsome cute loving guy/gal etc.....but guyssss this will never happen..even if it did what happens next after that- this drama will show u the reality..please watch.

Korean dramas are known for their stereotypes. The overarching story may change, the genders might be revered (figuratively but in some cases literally), the girl might be rich instead of the guy, the witch may get the man instead of the princess, but the major beats are always the same; guy and girl are meant to be, blah blah gets in their way, they get together in the end. True that some of the recent entries have tried to shatter major stereotypes (take Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo for example) but no kdrama breaks stereotypes the way Be Melodramatic does. Most kdramas start off funny and light hearted, then quickly shift to the same gear that every other kdrama does with over the top melodrama and sadness, oh so much sadness. Be Melodramatic has surprisingly managed to balance the tears-in-your-eyes comedy, heart throbbing romance and poignant melodrama that never goes over the top in such an effective manner that I doubt any other kdrama comes even close. The fact that this is such an outlier in the cookie cutter world of kdrama might be the reason behind it's low ratings. In being so different, it may have alienated some of the typical audience members for this type of media. But if people aren't hyping this kdrama up to the max, they are making a mistake. This drama is awesome. To those who are skeptical of this show, just watch episode 1 till the end. You won't regret it.

The start and the ending of this series are not quite catchy but what's in the middle is just perfect with a mix of melodrama and supreme comedy. The series was well-acted and shot. I just wish they too, more effort in closing this series. It felt very open as if they were keeping a door open for a second season. It would have been better to see a conclusion to the various relationships this series portrayed. Still, it is worth the watch. I recommend it.
