We have a classic story of an extreme playboy who is so good at conning women and making them love him that it's amazing to watch the desperate antics he gets up to to pacify each of his women. For any women who considers herself to have dignity and self worth, this show is like a slap on her face. It's disgusting, the type of humour in this show is so despicable that I'm so astounded how the female actresses didn't quit or walkout after reading the script.

Reasons why you should skip this show {SPOLIER'S AHEAD]:
The male lead is a whore who wants to get with the female lead, make her love him only to dump her when she falls in love with him
-The female lead is supposedly very smart, but gets outsmarted by the whore of a male lead at every step
-The male lead juggles around everyone and interferes with the lives of everyone around him to the point where everything revolves around him wanting to get girls and somehow having to fix up the messes he creates because he can't help himself from being a lecher
-Apparently the only thing that the male leads balks at is rape, so sweet of him when he thinks hooking up with any willing female, cheating on multiple women at the same time, being a chronic compulsive liar and destroying the lives of those around him just to feed his 'God' ego make up for him not being a rapist on top of all this, THANK YOU SO MUCH WRITERS FOR LETTING HIM HAVE ONE REDEEMING QUALITY, I MEAN, IT MEANS SO MUCH TO US VIEWERS TO SEE SUCH A POSITIVE ROLE MODEL
-Male lead almost ruins the female leads parents marriage by hooking up her father (to get him on his side so he can keep tabs on the female lead when she's with her parents) with a prostitute who ends up extorting money, a house and even a car from the father (aside from the fact that he ALSO cheats on his wife of 20+ years)
-Male lead at multiple occasions tries to break up and destroy the love life of his "best friend" (I put that in quotation marks since who needs enemies when you have friends like the male lead?) by framing him time and time again. Male lead sets up the situations thus that his best friends girlfriend always finds her boyfriend with other girls, even though the poor dude wants nothing to do with the disgusting behaviour of the male lead, who is his best friend.
-If there was an olympics for a male whore who can juggle between numerous females and still not get trapped, the male lead in this show would win, hands down
-The worst part about this show is that at the end, the male lead still doesn't reform, he stays a flirt, and the ending scene is literally his wife having to drag him out of some sort of strip show/bar
-Female lead apparently can't stand guys like him but somehow can't help herself but fall for this slimy manwhore
-Female leads acting is stiff throughout the show, hard to enjoy when you just want to cringe anytime she tries to be cute or sexy

To the writers: I hope you stop trying to make shows where such despicable behaviour is rewarded and constantly wins over those who have better morals and behaviours. It is not funny that the female leads mom tries to almost kill her husband after she finds out he was cheating on her. I can see an argument can be made that by making this a comedy that the writers are trying to present a serious issue in a lighthearted way, however, thats not how this came across as. If that was the intention, they completely missed the mark. The whole show seems to be about how male chauvinism is rewarded and you can get away with anything if you love someone, but just not enough that you are willing to stop cheating on that person every now and then.

Cliches, cheating, screaming no development

I really liked the beginning but her father is a cheater and every man except from the policeofficer is a casanova. Started funny but the charakters dont grow. When he loves her then he will be able to not cheat! Especially after he promised her at the end he wont be slipperi anymore and he goes cheating again... it is like at the start with his many girfriends only that now it is his wife and she has help from her friends.... The women always forgive them and only try to give excauses...Whats wrong with the old people???? Her father let himselfe manipulted and becomes a cheater... kens father is also getting more terrible.... What loving parent will allow her to marrie someonly like ken.... her father even knows what an asshole ken is and how many tricks he has and even helps him?????The only real charakter development is the love story between her bestfriend and the policemen and the two Exgirlfriends of Ken.. Also the romantic friend of Aim (wo becomes a single women) has a ok ending. The Exgirlfriends of Ken are unbelievebel..... They made my headache!!! Alway Loud,screamibg,fighting,... one of them a young heiress and she seemed sooo stupid most pf the time!!! I nearly stopped the drama because it was sooo nervereeking!! Luckily they grew up in the story! The Old and the young are stupid and the women an men are total clichee!!! Sad because it started interesting.

I love this drama. Its funny but there is a romance there. This is refreshing to watched after busy days in office. Understand we are women hate playboy like the character played by male lead actor in this drama, but i think the male lead played it very well. The story line also not heavy. I mean, after busy day, would u still want to watch all heavy store line ? If me, i dont. I love all the episodes here, except the part where the male lead actor bring his father in law to be to go to play. There are many ways to make your father in law to be to like you than to bring him to go to play and cheated on his wife. The female lead sure know how to handle her playboy husband

Disgusting

No, really, it is disgusting.
What woman in her right mind would want a man, that nearly destroys her family, cheats all the time and does not respekt her or anyone else? He gets the FLs father to cheat on the FLs mother - can you imagine getting together with somebody like that?!? He tries to destroy the relationship of his best friend - of his best friend! Repeatedly - just like that, just for fun! He tricks the FL at every turn, endangering even her work.
All the charakters in this drama are depicted as stupid - except the ML who tricks and plays with everyone.
If you think I am exaggerating - watch it and you will see....

Was this drama supposed to be funny??? Fail!

If you think, that the ML will change his way - no, he does not regret or repend even once!
Really, even in the last episode she has to drag him out of a strip club - no thanks, no way.

Series revolves around a playboy who is determined to get the FL to fall in love with him. He spends X amount of episodes pursuing her while still hooking up with other females. Yes eventually his feelings change for the FL and she stops being just a mission but someone he cares for. Sadly his care was not enough to make him respect her and stop fooling around with other females. Not only did he lie and manipulate from episode one to the very last episode this ML also derailed relationships of people that were close to him by dragging them into his bad behaviors. This was not funny. It was not cute. It was not romantic. This is why I make so many women suspicious and mistrusting of men because of me and like this. I had hoped that this guy would be redeemed but he wasn’t he just stay the same.

We’ve all seen shows like this where the male or female change their bad habits/cheating ways and become better people. This is not it. This guy cheating and flirted to the very last second of the show. As a matter of fact, it ended with his wife dragging him out of a club. However the writers made light of this and played it up as boys will be boys. By the end of this series, I was thinking what a sad life to be married to a compulsive lier and cheater. To have to drag your husband out of the club or search his phone. This was not a comedy, this was truly a degrading tragedy from beginning to the ver end and I do mean very end (it ended with him lying while the producers played happy music)

Spare yourself this one. The playboy is not redeemed. This is the epitome of a woman being married to a womanizer with no desire or intent to ever change. It was just ridiculously pathetic.

The stars that I did give this series is simply because of the supporting cast. They seemed more genuine and worth watching but even some of them terrible habits.

Film is 34 here. His play"boy" here is a bit aging... He does a lot of running after all the women. Looks a bit tired, actually.

Jean Gaewalin is 26 here. Her character is supposed to be "special" woman for the aging playboy. Not that she behaves unlike everyone else. Then after one still kiss with eyes open, she is hooked: it was her first kiss, because she spent all her previous life watching korean series, apparently.

First few episodes, we watch Film's character trying to keep it going with 3 girlfriends at the same time, putting lot of time, effort and financials in. Not to mention energy (he looks positively exhausted at times). Girlfriend number 3 is supposed to be Jean Gaewalin's character, of course. He is currently just courting her, but already counting her in:)

I felt tired with this after first 5 episodes. I just don't like Film in a comedy. He started aging already and there's no way he'd interest me as a pra'ek if it's not made really romantic. Him fooling around like a bufoon cannot make him attractive. Also for Jean Gaewalin it's a pitty they cast her in so many crazy comedies. She makes georgeous nang'ek.

Dropped during episode 7.
