Is marriage right for you?
This show explores several facets surrounding relationships giving importance to not just companionship but also the perspective of someone who doesn't want to get married. The story is not that well crafted but decently executed, can't blame them cause the meanings they want to deliver and that too through stories of different people doesn't give that much flexibility. Overall the show is a good watch if you like light romance, good acting, a meaningful story, and the actors involved in the show.
The show revolves around Jung Ha Na, a government employee who does not want to get married and enjoys her single life. She is transferred into a new department set up to get people married due to the declining birth rate. Circumstances lead her to Bong Cheol Hui an island bachelor who checks all the points from the avoid marriage list and the irony is that she had to get him married to get out of this new department. When things seem to go her way people from both their pasts come back and the chaos ensues. Will she be able to get him married and transferred to another department, or is something else awaiting her?
The are many things to like about the drama:
1. Bong Cheol Hui, is such a genuinely nice person, anyone who meets him melts from his warmth in the show.
2. The twins, were too cute yet mature for their age. They acted as our characters' guides, using their innocent remarks in various situations.
3. The dynamics between the leads, although I won't say they had the best romance but it was comfortable and peaceful watching them being comfortable and peaceful together. The way they thought and acted for each other conveyed a lot.
4. Finally, the most important things were the little yet profound messages that each of the episodes carried. If you are someone who likes stories filled with meaning and messages and not just exaggerated situations then this drama is for you.
Closing message (not related to the drama):
Whether you want to be single or in a relationship, you should always try to understand why they feel that way. If you are content being single then stay single, if you like companionship be in a relationship, but don't be in one while hating the other, or don't run if your insecurities, past experiences, etc. are what stop you from making choices. It's not just love rather the same can be said about every aspect of one's life. One should live the way they want to, without running away due to their trauma, fears, or insecurities or holding back due to fear of not being good enough or uncertainties, but rather try to become a better version of oneself in every aspect imaginable while living their life with a positive mindset. For example, if a person is truly happy, they will be happy alone and with people, no private or public situation can hold them back, rather than judging someone with different beliefs or forcing them to think a certain way, they will try to understand why the other person thinks that way. And lastly, everything in life is important, one's career, family, friends, romantic relationship, money, dreams, goals, mental and physical health, etc. Not even one of them is dispensable rather I can go all day long stating more such things to be added to that list. Try to find what you really want and what's keeping you from it, we all have one life why live with fear and sadness when we can live a happy and content life instead?
