From an overly philosophical script, to 2D characters with no likeability or development, and a poor overall direction, Matrimonial Chaos is a drama that doesn't know what it wants to be, and it shows. Especially in the latter half. Some story points felt so rushed that I was confused as to why they were put there, and it even seems like the writer had forgotten about some of the prominent second leads, with notable gaps regarding these characters. I think it says a whole lot about a drama when even the legendary actress Bae Doo Na cannot save it for me.

The acting was good, not great. It is very difficult for actors to shine when the characters they play are so uninteresting, but most of the cast members tried their hardest with what they were given. OST was decent, but nothing too special. Re-watch value is a little higher than what I had expected when writing this review, I think it is down to the slow pace. Since I am learning the Korean language, this drama was good for me to listen to. The slow pace helped absorb my Korean language listening skills very well. So, I guess, in a way, that is the only reason as to why I didn't decide to drop this. Believe me, I was very close to dropping this one.

All in all, I do not recommend this.

Matrimonial Chaos. A story that doesn't know what it wants to be.
