Watashi no Otto to Kekkon Shite

The start was good; you can see that it's supposed to be nuanced but it just slightly falls short. I agree with most other reviewers that it lacks the charm of the Korean version. It's the ending that's the problem, it's not satisfying. Villains: no one gets their just desserts and the female villain sill gets to traumatized the FL which is all she really wanted. All the other awful people the ruined the FL's first life just drift off out of the storyline with no satisfying consequences. The built up to the big finally never reached its peak and the big finally was similarly lacking. The last 2 episodes at least felt rushed, if they'd done 12 episodes instead of ten then they could have at least padded out the story more. I also agree that the chemistry between the FL and the ML was lacking and not at convincing as people who are convinced that their love is doomed or even just half convinced - I don't think it's the actors faults though I think it's down to the writing and directing. Also the dramatic moments never truly felt dramatic (somehow).

Overall I went into this thinking it was a more gritty less comedically punchy version of the Korean show, and it definitely tried to be but it really just fell to short to satisfy.

On the other hand it was still very good.

Its my first time leaving a review, i create account just to leave a review, to let everyone know, this drama is flawless, when i heard it is a remake of korean Marry my Husband, i am telling myself, it will never be better than the korean version but it shocked me, it surpass my expectation, it is so good, its flawless, please watch and support this masterpiece.

I don't usually watch TV dramas, but Marry My Husband really surprised me in the best way. From the very first episode, I was hooked. The performances were outstanding; each actor brought depth and emotion to their role, making the story feel authentic and engaging.

What stood out most to me was how well the series captured Misa's emotional journey. You can genuinely feel her pain, strength, and transformation, which made her character incredibly relatable. And Reina? She's written and portrayed in such a way that you can't help but despise her more with each episode which, in a drama like this, means they did it right.

The pacing was solid too, tight and compelling, without dragging things out unnecessarily like some dramas tend to do. Every episode had a purpose and kept the story moving forward.

While a second season seems unlikely, I'd definitely be there for it if it ever happens. This show is a hidden gem, and I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys emotional stories with strong characters and just the right amount of drama.

Personally i'm not really into J-drama but this one is good, watch until ep 8 (since 2 last episode will be aired next week).

This version is a bit more realistic for friendship between female lead antagonist and i got the chemistry more. Cinematography also nice and the warm tone color give more melancholic vibes.

However, if you haven't watch the korean version or maybe the webtoon/novel, you might find this drama a bit confusing since there are lots of scenes deleted from the original, so far. Some plot a bit rushed and need more build up for the climax.

I can't wait to watch the final episode and will update my review.

Just finished episode 6 and I can't wait to watch more every Friday. Personally I like this version so much better than the KDRAMA. The original version is a WEBTOON comic so the KDRAMA version is NOT the original. And so far I think the JDrama does a great job of showing the personalities of the characters, especially the Director. He may seem reserved but he genuinely cares about Misa and will whatever it takes to save her. I love their relationship and how gentle he is with her. The flow of the story is paced very well, and although some parts are different from the WEBTOON I can still tell where we are in the story. I can't wait to keep watching.
