It's been a while since I picked up a drama that has already finished airing and it took me exactly 3 days to finish Bride of The Century. At surface it appeared to be a ghost drama and in that area it surely didn't fail. But there was a cute romance and a lot of shocking revelations throughout that made the plot even better. Everybody had agendas and everybody was hiding something or the other. There is a curse in the family but you see various people taking advantage of it in their own way. And yet, you find the lead couple, being sweet and completely unaware of the typical mother-in-law schemes. The actors were pretty decent. The lead actress did a great job portraying a double-role. It was pretty awkward seeing the sweet old Jeremy portraying the cold-hearted chaebol. I'm not saying he did a bad job, I loved him in this drama. It's just that some characters just stay with you forever and Jeremy is one of them. So it took a little time getting used to Lee Hong Ki playing this type of a character. The second leads and supporting characters were great. Especially Doo Rim's grandma. She was awesome! I loved Jin Joo and Secretary Kim's little side-story. The music was good. There is this one song I can't get out of my head. It seems like Lee Hong Ki sung it but I'm not sure yet. I'm going to download it tonight. I might rewatch the cute scenes but there won't be any suspense and mystery the second time around. I think it is one of the few dramas that left an impact on me in a rather-dull 2014. It's a cute romantic-comedy and then it's so much more.
