Light-hearted Romp
If you go into this without a great deal of expectation, you'll be rewarded with an uncomplicated romantic comedy with some genuinely funny moments.Most of the fun comes from Han Ye Seul who carries the show with a degree of aplomb. Her character development is almost indiscernible but still pulls you along and no matter how dreadfully she behaves you never really dislike her.
Oh Ji Ho provides a serviceable foil in his portrayal of Jang Soo but he is a character we have all met before.
The rest of the cast play thier roles adequately and the side plots pootle along satisfactorily.
The success and indeed the failure of the show is really in the turning of a film into a 16 hour show. Whilst it allows for a much greater depth to the characters and the 'plot', sadly this isn't realised leaving a 'this could have been great' feeling after many episodes.
Still well worth a watch with it being perfectly feasible to FF through most of the side plots.

You know what? I don’t care. I absolutely ADORE this drama. Honest to god, it’s probably in my top 5 favorite dramas I’ve seen. I love it so much. I could watch again and again and never get tired of it.
What is it about this fluffy Rom Com that stuck with me so? The answer is simple: Na Sang-Shil / Jo Anna. More specifically, Han Ye-Seul provides us with one of the most unique and endearing female leads I’ve ever come across.
Some people were annoyed by Jo Anna, but I don’t understand how they could be! I loved her from beginning to end. It may be because I have a weakness for the “vain and cold-hearted rich girl” trope; regardless, Na Sang-Shil is a hoot. I love that while she does evolve as a character, she never loses that sharp, ice-queen edge.
She has no time for anyone’s manipulation and passive aggression, and will bluntly call them out on it. He savage interactions with the second female lead was so satisfying to watch. It’s so refreshing to have a female lead that refuses to keep quiet. She brought everything to the surface, and I never had to worry about annoying misunderstandings with her. Most importantly, Na Sang-Shil / Jo-Anna just makes me laugh. I don’t know what it is about her, but she makes me crack up everytime. (Oh, and when Na Sang-Shil is happy? It is the cutest thing ever!)
While Han Ye-Seul’s character and performance is the biggest draw for me, it’s not the only charm of this drama. Oh Ji-Ho does a great job as the stingy and stubborn Jang Chul-Soo, and he makes a great comic partner alongside Han Ye-Seul. Kim Sung Min as Jo-Anna’s husband Billy Park and Kim Kwang-Kyu as his right-hand man Mr. King were a duo I thought I’d get tired of, but surprisingly I was never bored during their scenes. In fact, I was surprised by how much I sympathized with Billy. Jung Soo-Young is great (as always) as the dim-witted Kang-Ja, and her and Na Sang-Shil make a surprisingly sweet duo. The three nephews were cute as well.
I was addicted from this drama from beginning to end. Even the slower parts, which were few, kept me engaged. It may not be objectively great, but it will always hold a special place in my heart.

Uma Segunda Chance no Amor
Couple or Trouble é uma comédia romântica baseada no clássico filme de Hollywood Overboard. A história segue Anna Jo, uma mulher rica, arrogante e mimada que perde a memória após um acidente de iate. Jang Chul-soo, um homem humilde que a salva, aproveita a situação para se vingar dos abusos anteriores de Anna, fazendo-a acreditar que é sua namorada pobre. À medida que os dois passam mais tempo juntos, o improvável casal começa a se apaixonar genuinamente.A força do dorama está na química entre os protagonistas e no equilíbrio entre humor e momentos emocionais. O enredo é divertido, com cenas engraçadas, mas também toca em temas de redenção, crescimento pessoal e transformação do amor. A série é leve, mas oferece um desenvolvimento significativo dos personagens, especialmente na jornada de Anna, que passa de uma pessoa superficial para alguém mais empática e humana.
Para quem aprecia comédias românticas com toques de fantasia e um enredo envolvente, Couple or Trouble é uma escolha perfeita, oferecendo risadas e romance na medida certa.

The OG drama
This drama is a gem to my family. We loved main girl's stubborn and greedy outer shell but soft inner shell. She said so many iconic lines that we repeat everyday. It was very cracky in the first 80% of the show but then became serious at the end. I cried at the end because of the main girl's dilemma that she has all the money in the world but all she wants to do is go back to the cozy family and eat dinner with them. But at the end she had to let go because realistically she can't go back. My dad rewatched the end so many times that we lost the disc for it hahahahaVond je deze recentie nuttig?
