I went into this knowing that DtLY was patterned after Fated to Love You. I mostly enjoyed FtLY and hoped that with fewer episodes, DtLY wouldn't drag on and annoy me in the latter third as much as FtLY did. Sadly, it did. It was a good story and a halfway believable set-up. Drunken marriages are not exactly unheard-of. The acting by the leads was pretty good overall and they had chemistry. I actually enjoyed the drama up until about episode 13/14. If the drama had stopped there, I would've been much happier. As it was, it kept on and on with obstacle after forced obstacle, some of which were so ridiculously....well, ridiculous that it was obvious the writer/director was simply trying to stretch out the story for more episodes. They were not obstacles necessary to the growth of the OTP's relationship. They were frustratingly annoying. However, that being said, there were a few heart-tugging moments in the last 3 episodes, so maybe it was a complete waste of 3+ hours. All in all, it was mostly good but I doubt I'll rewatch it.
