I've decided to give more of these quickie dramas a shot, and honestly they are really starting to grow on me. I'm always afraid that a short Web-style drama won't be so good, or will feel to rushed, but "Wednesday 3:30 PM" is a perfect example of how fun a quickie drama can be. Not only are the episodes really short, but there are only 10 episodes, and still it felt like the perfect length for this story.

I admit that I was turned off by the concept. I hate the idea of an "ugliest time of the week" for women, which is what the title refers to. The story also starts off making the female lead seem pretty pathetic, so that was a turn off as well. However, Jin Ki Joo & Hong Bin have immediate great chemistry, and instantly the story went from annoying to super sweet and charming once Jae Won and Eun Woo re-meet.

There are many cute swoon-worthy moments overall, and even with such short episodes, and a cheesy premise, I really felt like I was watching a relationship develop.

The rest of the story involves a jerk of an ex, which was well played by Ahn Bo Hyun, because I couldn't stand him. There's also a female second lead who rounds out the "love square", and a surprisingly likable character played by Kim Hye Ji. The love story uses many of the standard kdrama romcom clichés, but because it's an abridged romcom none of the tropes overstay their welcome. So maybe it's predictable, but it's also entertaining. It's the perfect binge watch length, so I could definitely see myself watching this drama again. It also doesn't feel like a long series of commercials, or music videos, which I was also afraid of.

If you don't expect great depth, or a truly unique story, I think romance fans can really enjoy this one. If cuteness makes you cringe, then this drama really has nothing to offer you. For me, it came right on time, delivered exactly the kind of light story I hoped for, and in spite of myself, I will no longer think of Wednesday at 3:30 the same way again.
