Most lovable non-cringy couple

I cannot believe I only decided to watch this in 2022. I have always seen the poster online, but I don't know why I didn't bother picking it up. Until recently, when I discovered that this had amarriage of convenience trope, and me being a hussy for said trope, decided to jump right into it. I loved that they got married at such an early party of the story. YAY!The chemistry of the MC was amazing. The ML's acting was endearing, and the FL's acting was whacked at first, but her alcoholism never became a problem.The story was a little confusing because, of course, it involved time traveling and that consists of a lot of explanations, but the acting was so amazing and the burn was even better.

Strong dramatic acting and subject matter

I just completed the first episode of D.P. and I am very impressed. I have heard about the show before but never really considered it. I did it on a whim tonight and I am thankful I did. Tension is a word I seem to be using a lot lately, but it certainly fits her. The growing level of discomfort throughout this lead episode was a master stroke of writing, acting, and directing. The lead performance of Jung Hae-in is brilliant in its silent pain. The dead soldier at the end could just have easily been him. In addition to this, the filming of the final scene was heartbreaking as the Hae-in character, Ah Jun-ho, beats on his partner for his apathetic attitude regard the suicide of a soldier they sent to bring back. As he punching his partner, he begins to see his own face as the one he is beating, a vision of self punishment for his own weakness in giving in to his partners delays in apprehending the deserting soldier. VERY powerful. I look forward to seeing this drama through. It is only 6 episodes.
