Rosy Lovers (2014)

Wow - if you like drama, especially makjang, this is very good. Lots of hate to spread around, & conflicts about who ends up w/whom, etc. The acting is superb, the main characters endearing (I'm sorry, I just cannot buy into all the hate for Jang Mi), the story has some very realistic elements imbedded in the usual over-the-top plotline, and the ending is highly satisfactory. I much prefer shaded characters to the two-dimensional good or bad types - and every single person in this drama (even the evil daddy) has a blend of positive & negative. Read the comments & you can tell, since there are fierce debates about the evilness of almost every character LOL Even Cha Dol (the main lead & supposedly perfect boy) has his moments (especially in the beginning) So I do indeed recommend this to anyone who loves long family dramas :D

This drama was very promising at the beginning but was quickly shot down before episode 20 unfortunately, the writer had no idea what they were doing with the story or the characters (I could have written this story better myself!). I had people torn up and brought together in my mind but everything I wanted went the way I didn't want it to go :/ I have nothing but bad things to say....

A couple great actors were wasted with this drama - I started it for Lee Jang Woo (and I loved his character, but around episode 20+ something I couldn't believe a decision he made that seriously made me wonder about his sanity... o.O) I was so ticked off I almost dropped it (and as I look back I should have) but I endured a torturous 30 more episodes :/ Jang Mi's family was horrible - everyone besides the sister. Cha Dol's family was awesome but rather stupid in choices they'd make... I loved the mother as well as the actress who played her (my forever East of Eden mom) but her talents were wasted here along with LJW's....

My most hated characters were: Baek Jang Mi, Baek Man Jong, Go Yeon Hwa, & Ma Pil Sun (another very talented "grandmother" actress wasted). BJM a girl with no brains. BMJ a money hungry loser. GYH a suspicious and naggy wife. MPS a horribly imaginative mother-in-law who only made her daughters marriage worse every day. - all these characters destroyed the drama for me.

Music: was ok but that's it.

I will NEVER rewatch this drama - it's one of the most disastrous and worst dramas I have seen up till now.

I only managed to complete it b/c of 3 reasons: I didn't want to drop yet another drama. I was curious about Cha Dol's past. & I wanted to see what would happen to the only saving grace couple of the drama - Park Se Ra & Go Jae Dong...

Just Don't put yourself through the torture of this drama.
