Just an update of the Kdramas I enjoyed in the previous months: Dear Hongrang and Divorce Insurance.
In Dear Hongrang, Joseon Era Korea is depicted as both beautiful and bleak; the characters are sinister and steadfast. The ending is everything I expected— gloriously tragic.
In between is Jo Boah’s charm and Lee Jae Wook’s compelling performance. The look in his eyes reflects an unsettling and unspeakable burden only to be redeemed in every sword fight and a quiver’s flight. Me thinks it is his best, so far. Magnificent!
Lee Dong Wook is back in his charming form and winsome humor in Divorce Insurance. If you’re up for a more mature take on love and relationships, as well as an honest exploration of the messy and complicated world of marriage and couple-hood, you might enjoy this romcom of a Kdrama. It coasts along, yet it demands the mining of the nuances that make the romance truly unique and meaningful.
Watch for the next Kdrama review!
