The totally unexpected late arrival of two awesome episodes of Heirs/The Inheritors this week gives me hope that Marry Him If You Dare can get its act together for the final 4-episodes. It can’t be that hard to just explain things simply and let the four leads having some romancing (finally!) and then ship future Mi Rae back to either … Continue reading →
The was the best episode of Marry Him If You Dare (Mirae’s Choice) to date, followed by the wonderful subway fire episode that brought the OTP past one hurdle only to later come up against a wall. This one showed us that the wall might really be there for a valid reason, but then also confirms that our four leads … Continue reading →
Grahhhhh, Marry Him if You Dare (Mirae’s Choice) continues to be so infuriating. There remains a sliver of hope this thing will all come together soon, which keeps me from breaking up with it, but it doesn’t stop me from wanting to hurl plates at the screen when I watched episode 11. This drama proves that a story cannot be … Continue reading →
It’s sad the writing for Marry Him If You Dare (Mirae’s Choice) has been confusing and lackluster. It’s not bad, per se, just oddly jarring and premised on keeping the audience in the dark as to motivations. I actually think the characters are all well constructed, but the development of the characters have taken a back seat to future Mi … Continue reading →
I’ve finally cottoned on to what is so utterly aggravating about Marry Him If You Dare (Mirae’s Choice). The writing is flawed but it’s not horrendous, with a veritable avalanche of shitty dramas lined up way ahead of it. The acting is solid but marred by frustrating characterizations. But ultimately what’s killing my love for it (and I did love it … Continue reading →
I worry that the screenwriter has really laid her groundwork for the entire story of Marry Him If You Dare (Mirae’s Choice) but it won’t be until the very end that all the clues line up and all the issues get resolved. Along the way the viewers are frustrated and the characters get pulled through the ringer only to reach … Continue reading →
This episode of Marry Him If You Dare (Mirae’s Choice) was simultaneously better yet more frustrating. I’m back to loving Shin wholeheartedly, he’s a man who isn’t just principled yet emotionally aware, he’s also reflective and capable of change. Mi Rae continues to waffle back and forth between Se Joo and Shin, but this was the episode that showed me … Continue reading →
Oooooh, awkward dinner straight ahead, brake now if you want to avoid another potential mano-a-mano staredown between Shin and Se Joo. Marry Him If You Dare got some traction this weekend after two lackluster episodes last week primarily due to the spoiler stills showing leading lady Mi Rae getting a new makeover. She sports a chic shoulder blunt cut and … Continue reading →
Take a good look at curly-haired Mi Rae in the latest BTS photos above from Marry Him If You Dare. This might be one of the last times to see this hotly debated hairstyle. Ladies and gents, this past weekend excited fans in Hongdae spotted Yoon Eun Hye and Lee Dong Gun filming a date scene on the streets of … Continue reading →
If Marry Him If You Dare (Mirae’s Choice) doesn’t right the sinking narrative ship, this drama might turn out to be the biggest disappointment of the year. I love three out of the four leads, the screenwriter helmed my favorite K-drama last year, and the directing hasn’t done anything before I thought wasn’t visually pleasing. Rounding the corner at the … Continue reading →
There are two sets of Hong Sisters in K-drama writing teams, the more famous pair does the trendy dramas like The Master’s Sun, You’re Beautiful, and My Girlfriend is a Gumiho, while the less splashy pair did more serious work with Beethoven Virus and The King 2 Hearts. It’s one-half of the latter Hong Sisters duo that is writing Marry … Continue reading →
Episode 7 of Marry Him if You Dare (Mirae’s Choice) succeeded in opening up a whole new can of worms. There is no end to future Mi Rae’s meddling, and when it appears present Mi Rae isn’t going to follow her game plan, she turns her machinations on Yoo Kyung and Shin. This drama has turned out to be much … Continue reading →
It’s Monday so that means another highly anticipated episode of Marry Him If You Dare (Mirae’s Choice). With the way the narrative is unfolding, the English title might be more apropos as Pick the Other One If You Dare. I actually don’t have a problem if Mi Rae accepts Se Joo’s confessions in a misguided attempt to do as future … Continue reading →
