Strangely enough I have seen a lot of good romantic comedies this year. Marriage, Not Dating is easy to watch. The story is smoothly written with great character development and some great emotional moments both happy and sad. I like that it approaches a variety of different relationships from different perspectives. It is sad at times with out being depressing and funny at times with out being over the top. I enjoyed every episode and anticipated the new episodes from week to week. If you haven't watched it, then you might feel like marathoning it. It is great to see Yun Woo Jin in a leading role after Arang and the horrible When a Man Loves. He is a great actor that doesn't disappoint as Gong Ki Tae. His character obviously had trust issues and who could blame him after growing up like that. He is a fantastic kisser...HOT. I remember seeing Han Groo in some supporting roles and I wasn't sure she would be able to pull off the lead. She proved me wrong as Joo Jang Mi. I enjoyed this strong, quirky character a lot. Although her character had to do some unimaginable actions, she pulled it off as believable. I like how the writer let her sincerity shine through the deception. It was very interesting. I usually end up hating all the parents when watching dramas like this, but this time I liked them all and the way the characters were used to show the scars that can be left on a child's heart. The other actors were good including the cutie, 2AM's Jin Woon. He wasn't really given a lot to do and I'm not sure if that was written so the main leads took center stage or because he is such a newbie actor. Anyway, he didn't suck. I liked the music through out I will probably rewatch this. I'm tempted to do it right now. If you like romantic comedies or even just an easy to watch drama, then I think this is a good choice. It isn't the kind of drama that tears your heart out with emotion, but instead gives a comfortable feeling.
