So I Married the Anti-Fan

It's a simple story but it satisfies me. Even though there was cliche scenes it was enjoyable. I started watching this show without much expectations but it turned out to be good. There isn't any lag in the story and you can binge watch it without getting bored.

I really enjoyed the first several episodes. I looked forward to the next episode with great anticipation; however, that didn't last. The last several episodes were the same thing over and over which were very frustrated. This story would have been much better at 12 episodes instead of the 16 that it was.

I thought the leads had good chemistry except for when they kissed. The kisses always seemed very one sided. I think that should have become mutual and more passionate over time as their connection grew.

I disliked both of the second leads, one was a bully and the other was depressed and cried all of the time. I watch KDramas to get away from it all for awhile and watching a bully and cry baby are not the way I want to do that.

A journalist played by Choi Soo-young gets into a misunderstanding with a successful singer played by Choi Tae-joon, and ends up flinging a shoe at him which is captured on film hitting him. This altercation leads them both to appear on a tv series called "So I married an anti fan" where they are expected to behave like a couple. Behind the scenes there are people trying to hurt both their careers and the initial frostiness between them melts as they begin to care about each other and want to shield the other from harm. It is a predictable script and the story seems to fizzle out at the end but the romance is sweet and there are some amusing moments.

I was bored most of the time, the characters aren't very likeable.

I came with some excitement when I started watching this series. The theme, the actors and the story felt just like what I needed. Unfortunately, I found myself waiting whole 8 episodes for the series to start providing actual development. The ending of this series itself was not that something even though it was a happy ending. If you are willing to wait, starting from episode 9, you'll start getting some action and from there on things will keep getting better as the plot opens wide and starts to develop as it is supposed to be.
