Super duper excited about this drama when it was announced. I had just finished Office Girls ( the first drama with the leads as an OTP) and i was looking for more of the couple. Marry Me or Not is the R rated version of Office Girls in my opinion.
Story set up was different, the female lead was hateful and very manipulative, traits usually reserved for second female leads, she needs to teach a class on how to manipulate. Even though she was a baddie in some respects i wanted to see her succeed in her plans. Honestly i was happy for this, dramas usually give the female lead the nice, optimistic, fluffy, characteristics..... This was a breath of fresh air. On the other hand we had the male lead wasn't a jerk or a rich boy, but a relationship pessimist that had never dated. He loved the environment and animals more than his job as a divorce lawyer. Those are very interesting personality traits to pair together, will they get along or claw at each others throats?
The entire cast have a past together, ex-bf, ex-bff, or siblings who get pulled into revenge plots. With that knowledge we get the first 3 relationships of the main cast. The first half of the story consist of several ruined relationships and surprising yet funny introductions. The interesting part starts with ridiculous antics of the main couple trying to out wit each other..or should i say out flirt each other. They both win points that are well deserved but only to the embarrassment/shame of the other. It was extremely funny and worth the week to week wait to see what would come next.
Acting for the most part was amazing, you could feel the pain or embarrassment through character portrayal or rolled your eyes at the lack of sympathy for those who didnt deserve it. There were plenty of characters to hate, some more than others. The second couple was less interesting to me and had half my attention during their scenes. They were less interesting in character, or story-line.
Music was decent, i enjoyed the opening song the first few times but i could have skipped it most episodes. The ending song was good and i always loved to hear it through out the drama or during the ending credits.
I did rewatch the first half of the drama as it aired and i would rewatch the drama in its entirety again but skip some of the ending episodes.
Overall i enjoyed this drama and would recommend it to everyone as a great Rom Com.
