jaime Feb 19 2026 1:08 pm This drama get me out of my head. It’s so Funny without trying. I really like this genre of Park Minyoung and I also have this huge crush on Ko KyoungPyo!!
Zi Dec 28 2025 11:50 am Watching it now and rooting for Park Haejin.
I know it final end game is with the judge but i don’t care. Im gonna make my own ending on my mind. Ahahahahha
I dont know. The chemistry is on fire.
It’s a pity really. She doesn’t see who like her most! Bro literally spent his adolescent period crushing over her, even naming cat after herz
As to park min young and go kyung po - sorry there is no spark!
Or better yet, they end up together and kim jaeyong is mine.
kdrama is my stress reliever Nov 17 2025 11:03 pm The Heeeechh. what a superb acting between park min young and yoo mi-ho in ep 15. <3
Juliette Jul 24 2025 2:36 am Love all the actors, Regards specially to KJ-Y
Kdrama Llama Feb 10 2025 3:07 pm I really enjoyed this quirky, offbeat romcom, which has some dark and even sad parts, with genuinely laugh out loud moments too. Despite the low rating on here, I tuned in for Park Min Young, who always delivers, and discovered a great show that entertained me (although I have lots of questions about contract marriages TBH, is this really a thing?). I loved every performance, particularly the FL’s bestie and roomie who was his authentic, fabulous self and ice cold Madam Yoo. The ML was far from the typical alpha hunk but he was totally endearing as the quiet, shy guy who was understatedly hilarious at times, what a performance! The MLs colleagues, particularly his boss, were also a delight.
If you enjoyed “because this is my first life,” give this one a try, there’s even a scene stealing cat here too!
Nimi Jul 04 2024 3:18 am If you think this drama is not good please find healing? You must have been hurt a lot to be so bitter Hope you find love❤️
Nimi Jul 04 2024 3:17 am I’m not a fan of romance dramas but I couldn’t stop watching this one. From the beginning till the end my face was all smiles. I really enjoyed watching this. The chemistry between the main lead was so understandable and I could feel their love. It makes me also want to be in a good relationship with someone that cares so much about me. Thank you to the director,the writer and the Professional actors. I think I’ll never miss Park min young and Ko kyoung po’s work from now on. They are both so talented. This is the best for real It’s so soothing and makes me relax. Thank you so much.
Mediocre Aug 23 2023 5:02 pm This is the worst PMY drama that I have ever seen in term of acting and story both of them are WTF so slowly and drag I am curious how much score that newbie writer and director will give to this drama if they watch it and can they watch it until ep 16 without x2 speeding.
Love Jun 05 2023 7:49 am Have enjoyed the latest two shows, including forecasting love weather. The first one i watched was not city hunter, but Healer. The entire show's memorable and superb, hope you can work with that actor again, sizzling charm.
Flower May 16 2023 10:02 pm I just finished watching this and it is so delightful. I laugh a lot thanks to this drama. If you like a light romcom drama, this one is for you!
Some parts are too good to be true and a bit unrealistic...but it is expected from a korean drama! Nevertheless, I enjoy it a lot. And I always like the way Park Min Young gazes at the male lead...it is so lovely. (Even though I think this one still can't surpass the chemistry of her and the male lead in 'Her Private Life'... but that one is indeed exceptionally strong!)
Jae yi Apr 23 2023 1:55 am No chemistry with fl and ml. I feel more chemistry sang eun with hae jin. I stop watching. I can't take it anymore...
Huy Apr 20 2023 4:31 pm I’ve watched kdramas for about 10 years. I love all PMY’s drama that I’ve watched. This one is 재밌어요. I love the chemistry between the lead. I love sangeun and jiho character. One thing that bothered me was kang hae jin character (I don’t hate the actor, just the character). Bruh, his personality gets on my nerves. I skipped all of his scenes.
Jamie Project Jan 14 2023 10:26 pm Thank you tvn for this drama. I loved it so much! GKP and PMY's chemistry was FIRE! My heart kept on screaming during their soft moments, all the more on their kisses. In this drama year full of sad endings, Love in Contract is a breath of fresh air. Every actors' comedic timing is really good, I couldn't stop laughing. More light dramas like this please.
socially awkward Jan 01 2023 10:07 pm Yoo-Miho had a bitter past that shaped her into an ambitious person. She got dumped by Ina's Chairman, he married a rich fam and left her with her daughter. She thought she suffered because she didn't come from an upper class family.
She put SE in an orphanage, took her back 6 years later, created 'Jamie Project' to make SE become Ina's daughter. So SE would have a good life, with privileges Yoo-Miho never had. Devoted her life to raised SE, though she'd never be recognized as her mother.
No doubt she loves SE, only wanting the best for her in her perspective (marry the rich). She forced SE to walk in a path that didn't make her happy but harmed her instead. Different perspectives of happiness made their relationship more complicated.
Betrayed by her lover and hated by her daughter, she bore it for years. When Jiho brought it up, she looked fragile and miserable for the first time. I appreciate Jiho for confirming both women’s real feelings.That she doesn't treat SE as a product and she trully cares for her.
Their relationship was getting warmer in Ep 14, folding towels, organizing wardrobe and there was Jiho awkwardly trying to reconcile them. He even once called Yoo-Miho as 'Eommo-nim', in which he is already considering her as his Mother In Law.
Jiho set up a dinner for them, Yoo-Miho apologized and admitted her mistakes. SE also told her that she always sent her money because she was worried about her. It warms my heart seeing them sharing dinner together, even taking a beautiful picture! I loved Yoo Miho’s character development.
Haejin Dec 31 2022 10:25 pm Thank you tvn for this drama. I loved it so much! GKP and PMY's chemistry was FIRE! My heart kept on screaming during their soft moments, all the more on their kisses. In this drama year full of sad endings, Love in Contract is a breath of fresh air. Every actors' comedic timing is really good, I couldn't stop laughing. More light dramas like this please
Jiho Dec 24 2022 8:30 am One of the worst dramas of this year and worst drama of Park Min Young. No chemistry at all between the leads. It seemed so forced and didn't look natural. Sorry Park Min Young, I really couldn't like this drama no matter how much I tried. And some people only so obsessed with kiss scenes because there is nothing special about the story. I have been watching kdramas for 14 years and I really didn't like Park Min Young's drama for the first time ever. One of the worst romcoms ever.
Raine Dec 14 2022 7:09 am We get excited with Jiho and Sangeun kissing and all, but at the end of the day, we go back to their dinner scenes and conversations to remind us of how amazing their love is and all the reasons why we love them since day 1. Thanks to the writer and director for their wonderful story.
I also love the changes in Hae Jin, Ji Eun and Madam Yoo. This drama showed us how to love, how to heal, how to accept and most of all, how to embrace the future knowing you have someone that cares for you. Definitely one of the best romcoms in 2022.
seonshine Dec 05 2022 7:27 am Just finished Love In Contract. I'm so glad I watched this. I thought it would be a toxic love triangle but it's not. Haejin, his mom, Jieun, Madam Yoo, the people we hated earlier, redeemed themselves. And of course Sangeun and Jiho = perfect couple. I also really love gwangnam and sangeun's friendship so much. Must watch 10/10 romcom
Vrina Nov 27 2022 7:30 am if any people say this drama is boring come on all of you only bring personal matter here ?. this drama is completely funny, the chemistry of parkMinyoung with all the male actor here perfectly amazing!! From this drama once again proved ParkMinYoung is Queen of Chemistry. Thank you to director Namsangwoo and all the cast we are enjoy our Wednesday Thursday because of this drama. hopefully Gokyungpyo and ParkMinyoung can work together maybe for full romance movie ?
Apple pue Nov 27 2022 3:23 am Was looking forward to this drama but sad to say I find it super boring .
Sylvia bts Nov 26 2022 2:08 pm I couldn't watch the drama sorry to say. This was one of Pmy drama I hated. It was quite boring and the fact that PMY looked quite skinny here didn't help matters.
I loved how she looked in WWWSK. I still have that series but you see this one? I dropped it after thirty seconds to the show???
MJ Nov 15 2022 2:27 am I thank the producers of this drama for a job well done. The combination of the plot and characters (and their actors) had all the key elements of an entertaining drama: an intriguing situation (marriage under contract); a complicated tangle of relationships; a beautiful and smart female lead, a mysterious, smart and good looking male lead; witty, funny, and talented friends and colleagues. It has balanced all these elements in a series of episodes that one anticipates to follow. The script was smart and light for the most part; no heavy emotional lows.
Park Min Young carried her character well with her expressive acting as the romcom queen, and Go Kyung Pyo was a good fit for his character. They made a good match for this drama.
More lighthearted romcoms from the producers please.
Ren Nov 12 2022 10:02 am Definitely not the typical marriage contract drama y'alls. The plot, script, visuals are amazing~
I like how the characters were portrayed throughout the drama. They're not only focusing on the main but supporting cast as well. All of them have characters development, giving out positive inputs which give the a sense of healing-easy watching & entertaining with bits of comedy here & there.
Park Min Young is really a rom-com queen. Kyoung-Pyo is funny too and my most fav character - Gwang Nam (Hyoung-Suk) did a very good job with his memorable character here. Worth watching for a good laugh :))
Tahsin Nov 12 2022 12:15 am Loved the drama and chemistry between cast and i hope pmy is doing well both mentally and physically
D Campos Nov 11 2022 2:36 pm Will this Series be available on DVD?
Jessie Nov 11 2022 10:14 am I will miss you Ji Ho and Sang Eun! Such a good drama and also the OST. Wow! Just wow! Congratulations!
capitanapril_84 Nov 11 2022 3:33 am I love this drama so much! Moreso, PMY and GKP dynamics as a couple in this drama be it funny or drama scenes feels so real especially their kisses.
Niu-niu Nov 10 2022 9:17 pm As a rom com fans, I am so thankful to PMY for being devoted to this genre. I watch her every rom com. With different male lead every time :D But she never fails to warm my heart with her talent. Though maybe this genre gains lower attention, but I think that it still has its own place for international fans. Kudos to PMY.
As for Go Kyung Pyo, Im glad that he gets more recognitions nowadays. A busy bee he is, more movies and dramas with different characters, even gets nominated for best supporting actor. Go Kyung Pyo as Jung Ji Ho is an anomaly. He's cool but comical at the same time. Jung Ji Ho is a rare boyfriend material in real life.
And last but not the least, Kim Jae Young. At first I think that he was overacting, but he shows his real skill at the end. It gives me a bittersweet feeling watching him as Kang Hae Jin, even after the drama ends.
I guess Im in love with the casts. Cant wait to see their next projects (hopefully a high rated rom com in the future)
Chi Nov 09 2022 11:00 pm I am enjoying this show so much! I am so amazed with Kim Jae Young's acting and good looks. I hope the story gives him a happy ending too. I am so interested about this new guy. I am with team Hae-Jin!
Kimmy Nov 09 2022 9:56 pm Jung Ji-ho is really going down as one of the most well-written kdramas male leads ever. Calm, patient, smart, confident, supportive, endearing, trustworthy, awkwardly funny, understanding. He never doubts Sang-Eun and takes her words for what they are.
Louise Nov 09 2022 1:21 am Lowkey rooting for Kim Jae Young and Park Min Young. KJY’s character is so selfless and genuine. I hope she gave him a fair shot. I get Go Kyung Pyo’s personality in this drama, but his facial expression is usually blank or clueless. I hope there was more nuances. I like how he handled things with Yoo Mi Ho though so props to him for that.
anythingwfries Nov 07 2022 12:57 am GKP and PMY's comedic timing and chemistry is Immaculate. Them bouncing off each other's energy made so many scenes soooo good and so funny for real. Sad that this drama is criminally underrated in SoKor.
Dorothy B Nov 07 2022 12:36 am Does anyone know the classical piano piece played in Episode 4? I was enjoying it as much as PMY’s character.
I’ve also enjoyed the entire series through Ep 14 thus far. There’s a lot going on so it takes a few episodes to get the feeling of the series. After that, it has been great with emotions for every character and cliff hangers almost every episode.
Long time kdrama fan in Australia Nov 05 2022 8:50 pm Thoroughly loving this show especially Ko Kyoung-Pyo acting and his character. Well done to all.
socially awkward Nov 04 2022 9:34 pm What I really love about this drama is that everyone is struggling with their own inner child and trauma, how it affects them as an adult. How they embrace, heal and overcome it. All beautifully presented. Jung Jiho and Choi Sang-eun's partnership is goals
Ms.Pug Nov 03 2022 7:13 pm I like the cast a lot, but the premise of the show is distasteful and so implausible, you feel sorry for the leads. Still, I like the cast enough to grit my teeth and watch it until the end.
Billa Nov 03 2022 12:10 pm Cant agree more Queen
Queen Nov 02 2022 10:53 pm Didn’t expect too much for Kim Jae Young to show off his acting skills in this drama, as this is a romcom (surely much lighter than Reflection of You lol).
But damn, ep.13 gave him justice, I guess. His performance definitely not disappointing! He made me feel the pain of the character, even the way KHJ tried to keep it for himself alone.
sf Nov 02 2022 10:46 am The weirdest character in this drama is Choi Sang-Eun saw through the prism of the activity he carried out, not to mention the writer who could imagine such a character. I'm eager for this drama to finish quickly.
Tom Nov 01 2022 3:14 am The ML Ji Ho is just a weirdo. I don't know why FL is so obsessed with him. He has the personality of a mailbox.
likeyliek Oct 31 2022 6:55 am I totally support Jung Ji-ho and Choi Sang-eun’s love life. I’m sorry but they just got me ???
Kdrama buff Oct 30 2022 12:21 am The premise of the story is pretty ridiculous. The second lead is a toxic and annoying brat. Quite boring! Watching EP 12 now. I like the best friend the best. However I like the kind of romance between the leads.
Sentinel Oct 28 2022 8:11 pm The main plot is pretty cliche, but the whole content is very well written that it's still entertaining despite the cliche.
vibininthefields Oct 27 2022 11:06 pm I adore the relationship-building between Sang-eun and Ji-ho, it's kind of that you'd see in a friends-to-relationship format if they had met more organically. Though as new things are being revealed, I am starting to see what Kang Hae-jin meant by (SPOILER!!!) the both of them should let her go so that she can find someone who loves her for herself and not use her.
MJ Oct 26 2022 5:28 pm This is one of the most entertaining romcom I have seen (still watching). The plot and characters are a great combination. Park Min Young is an amazing actress and plays her role so well (although I wish she would put on a bit more weight).
I don't understand why some people get so worked up with the rivalry of the two male lead - Judge vs. Actor. They are both interesting and likeable characters with their own personal histories. Preference for one over the other I think depends on your own personal taste (for men) - some like a younger stylish outgoing type, some like more quiet introspective shy type. But both men in this drama have their respective strengths of character and Ms. Choi Sang-eun can see those, and has chosen someone more appealing to her.
Enjoy watching as the personalities unfold with their actions and reactions and attitudes.
Kharinah Oct 25 2022 6:57 am it's so wonderful drama... worth to watch
psychmtrc Oct 24 2022 3:10 pm for people who don't understand why people don't like the second lead is because he constantly steps over the lines of their relationship. even when they didn't have a contract he basically pushed her into being his contract wife, forcing her into the limelight and risking her anonymity from the literal stalker that he has. also hating on the ml for the way he doesn't express his feelings as if the last five episodes haven't been telling the audience that he has severe trauma from his childhood. the trauma which made him push down all his feelings.
Zeila Oct 24 2022 7:48 am Disagree that Kim Jae Young gets more screentime...he did not get Enough. Every time there is a scene with him, they interrupt it. Would 100% choose a guy who is honest with his feelings than a guy who can't get his act together. Don't want to spend my life having to constantly reaffirm my feelings, which she will have to do with Gyung-Pyo's character. Been there. I do love, love, love the entire cast of this show.
CpCats Oct 24 2022 2:52 am Don't understand why everyone is annoyed with Kang Hae Jin. I like him. At least he is straightforward with his feelings. Ji Ho is extremely frustrating and, to me, that is what is Super annoying! I mean, 5 years go by and he stll can't speak honestly with Sang Eun?? Really? Ugh no thanks. I'm all the way team Hae Jin (even though I know that's not where things are headed)
Star Blossom Oct 23 2022 10:02 am can someone tell me what's the name of the teenager ji-ho?
세라 Oct 22 2022 1:24 pm Ji Ho all the way!
Chi Oct 21 2022 9:26 pm Team Kang Hae-Jin! She's so comfortable with him and he truly cares about her. I wish she picks him in the end.
Baby Taehyung Oct 21 2022 3:55 am I am so heartbroken for Kang Haejin in ep 7. I like Kang Haejin and Sang Eun but it seems like the love story is going in the path of Ji-ho and Sang Eun. Poor Haejin. It seems like a predictable story. I have a love-hate feelings for this drama.
Dz Oct 21 2022 1:42 am @joy : couldn't agree more. i always skipped when it's hae jin and sang eun scenes cause i couldn't stand it lol
QQ Oct 21 2022 1:24 am This is the first drama where i found the second lead so irritating, Kang hae jin character is so annoying.
chei Oct 21 2022 1:20 am can someone tell me what's the name of the teenager ji-ho?
Joy Oct 21 2022 12:15 am Ok, it’s official, i hate the 2nd male lead He doesn’t act mature at all and he is very selfish
Nadia Oct 20 2022 3:40 pm I’m rooting for Kang Hae-Jin and Choi Sang-Eun. I don’t know why everyone is rooting for Jung Ji-Ho, I don’t feel their chemistry at all.
Kaye Oct 19 2022 6:14 pm Like most of the viewers, I am loving the second lead actor Kang Hae-Jin, I find the chemistry between the him and Choi Sang-Eun better! I hope they will have a better ending together.
rian Oct 19 2022 5:54 pm Anyone know who is acting as teenage ji-ho?
Derin Oct 19 2022 3:44 pm Was liking the second male lead until episode 9. Park min young is so good, she executes her role perfectly ? Now on team sang eun and ji ho
Jules Oct 16 2022 12:42 pm Am team choi sang and kang hae
Enjel Oct 16 2022 12:28 am I really love the drama especially the chemistry between Park Minyoung and Ko Gyung Pyo. They make me floating in the air that's why I am always looking forward to every episode released. On the other hand, I always hate and get angry seeing Kim Jae-Young's face.
Huali Oct 15 2022 10:43 pm Love love love.... falling in love with 2nd male lead
Tamod Oct 15 2022 5:22 am Park min young look like laspag
Ananya Oct 14 2022 2:27 am Expecting a straight confession and a kiss in the next episode... can't wait
Jiji Oct 13 2022 8:16 am I love this show. I love the plot. I love Ko Gyung Pyo.
Vangie Oct 09 2022 10:08 pm I swear if this is on Netflix, this would be talk of the town. It just has the perfect recipe for Rom-Com and everything else that's beautiful and entertaining
Happy98 Oct 09 2022 12:09 pm As usual Go Kyungpyo became slimmer in every episode hahah and it's cute like a magic ? The relationship between Park Minyoung and Kang Hyoungsuk is refreshing after all Bromance and girlsquad. I saw similarity in Park Minyoung drama character from last 2018. She play multi talented multitasking woman role, and makes me wonder if she's also had the same ability as her role she played in real life.
SARANGHAE Oct 09 2022 3:38 am The male character like dumm (Ko Gyung Pyo)
Lets Oct 08 2022 10:52 am I really love the drama???
Miraki Oct 08 2022 9:59 am Ji Ho <3
Ddaeng Oct 07 2022 9:54 am Idk but i much more enjoyed seeing sang eun and gwang nam scenes in every eps than with the 2 male leads even though kim jae young is my fav actors but gwang nam and sang eun's chemistry just on another level lmao
jenny Oct 07 2022 9:23 am i like this drama so much!!! i enjoyed watching this series, the plot is not boring at all, can't wait for the next episodes
Shay Oct 07 2022 6:56 am I love sang eun and ji ho couple... I really love their chemistry, how innocent Jiho was and how he could not describe her feelings for her.. Can't wait for Ep 7....
ange Oct 07 2022 6:12 am super cutie!! waiting sa episode 7!! ?
Jay Oct 06 2022 2:56 pm I really don’t like the 2nd ML. He is freaking impulsive and i can see him causing problems for Sang eun
hazy Oct 06 2022 11:06 am Love she with jiho?
Hani Oct 06 2022 6:39 am Love her to end up with Jiho. True chemistry!
Pmyfan Oct 05 2022 8:41 pm Coming here after watching ep 5. It's hillarious.
Billa Oct 05 2022 8:08 pm This is how traditional rom com supposed to be. Like it.
Jeny rose namulhan Oct 05 2022 2:50 pm I hope she will have happy ending with jiho I really like him for her
Pmyfan Oct 05 2022 1:47 pm Coming here after watching ep5. It was so hillarious. Go and watch it?
shanks Oct 03 2022 8:29 pm Surprisingly I actually like the drama fn.
ML is so attractive and such a husband material. 2nd ML is errrrr.... pretty annoying. So many red flags by this man.
Annie Oct 02 2022 9:37 pm I don’t understand the premise of this drama. I can see her pretending to be a fiancé, but legally getting married doesn’t make sense. I understand wrapping a character up in mystery is a good thing, but not to the point of confusion. On hometown cha cha cha we didn’t find out what his deal was until about episode 13 and it was glorious. Not giving information is a much better way to create mystery than giving misleading information. And how do you not ever talk in five years? I wanted to like this one since Today’s Webtoon lacked romance, but this is much too far-fetched.
Eonni atelier Oct 01 2022 8:45 pm Doesn't make sense. FL saw the judge of her divorce 6 times for 2 years, and she didn't recognize ML at all..
poola Oct 01 2022 7:52 am The “L” deathnote reference at episode 4 lol
It's so disappointing after watching 4 episodes Oct 01 2022 7:14 am I have high expectations when I saw this drama's trailer. After watching 4 episodes, I wished I didn't watch this at all. This is not a bit fluffy or feel good drama but it will make you annoy. Especially the 2nd ML. Watch At Your Own Risk.
Pmyfan Sep 30 2022 6:44 pm I'm loving this drama so much. GKP as Jung Ji Ho is very funny as socially awkward judge. I kept on replaying his run away scene from press (ep4). PMY slayed her role as Choi Sang Eun. Can't imagine any other actress can play this role except her. I never thought KJY can play a hot chaebol actor until Kang Hae Jin. I don't know who I'm rooting for. One thing for sure, as long as CSE get her happy ending, that's the ending I want for LIC
kdlxxv Sep 30 2022 9:30 am I agree that the 2nd lead character is Too Frustrating!! wtf was he doing, showing the world the girl he claimed he would marry Without Her Consent
Vangie Sep 30 2022 2:18 am Like wtf is wrong with the second lead (Haejin)??!!! He's getting into my nerves!
Tacchan Sep 30 2022 12:29 am @Zu chen i agree...the main lead so handsome,husband material. Couple best chemistry ...
Leu.A.M Sep 29 2022 6:35 pm I really love this drama. I started watching it on Wednesday(two days ago) and it was really cool. Since Min-Young unnie is one of my fav K-actress, so every movies she starred in is so cool and entertaining..
sf Sep 29 2022 1:56 pm Waste of time.
clingydaegun Sep 29 2022 11:31 am I'm enjoying this drama so far~ I'm hooked by the story from the start. Park Minyoung looks good with both Go Kyung Pyo and Kim Jae Young, but her chemistry with Kang Hyoung Suk is the best honestly. Sang Eun and Gwang Nam are such a cute exes/soulmates ?❤ They won my heart and even though the drama disappoint me later, I might stay just to see them :')
Mao Sep 29 2022 6:10 am I thought Jiho was going to be a red flag but after episode 3 it's obviously Haejin. **SPOILERS** He literally had someone background check Sang-eun and tail her everywhere she went and secretly took photos. Isn't he an actor who also suffers from crazy stalkers like this? Why is he just like them? Haejin is a HUGE red flag.
Zu chen Sep 29 2022 4:06 am I don't really like the script. It quite unrealistic somehow. I don't like the second lead. He (the second lead) over do his act sometimes and it makes me sick.
But I really enjoy the chemistry between the main actor and actress
The main actor is very handsome and he is my ideal type of man.
WhatIsThat Sep 28 2022 5:21 pm Why is the other guy so shameless? If you saw your first love again and married is that what you're gonna do mingle with her current relationship(in a sense that he doesn't know the situation). What a loser!
YellowTumbler Sep 28 2022 1:20 am Who's the lead, who's the second? I love Ko Gyung-Pyo but haven't really seen him much as a lead in dramas... so please, will it be him? (but my guts saying he won't be the ending)
Sunshine Sep 27 2022 2:05 pm Love this drama so much already. It made me laugh so much but I am thinking that they will make us cry too.
dan23 Sep 27 2022 8:48 am get ready to get 2nd lead syndrome yeorobun :)
Umbr Sep 25 2022 1:16 pm I loved 2 episodes so far. The show is quite fun and entertaining. I love all characters. I already pity Go gyung pyos' character as he is made to look a psychopath but is having difficulty feelings emotions and responding to others emotions I suppose. He seem to me a criminal profiler or a Judge ( as he said in ep 1 and 2 "he always has to end people's life" and "people always plead to him" ). I think he has lost a partner who got murdered by someone. He is good at heart and have sincere feelings for Sang eun but cannot communicate those feelings well. Where as Sang eun has trauma of her own. It will be good to see how the leads connect and heal eachother. While Hae jin's character will make Jiho realise him having feelings for sang eun. I love the comic level of the show too its light happy drama. Hope it ends well too
AJA Sep 25 2022 7:26 am I just watch a clip of this on youtube shorts and got interested. I love how the plot was going and it's really interesting. I also told my sister what the story was about and I told her that the plot makes the male lead somewhat kind of a killer or what. But then as I've watched a lot of dramas, I'm thinking that he's not. The male lead might be a lawyer or a prosecutor something like that I think. Also the gay friend, after watching the first episode I'm actually rooting for him to be the partner, but yeah, he wasn't the male leads. I like how every episode made me hooked, like in what was the personality of the male lead, who was the female leads fiancé, why the male lead like that. And the second ep answered my every question, though I still don't know what's his work. I just hope the updates was fast but sadly it wasn't cause it only airs twice a week.I just hope every ep made me hooked and kept me interested. I kept on watching dramas but get bored in the middle, so lately I can't finish any dramas, hope this one was an exception.
Hatdog ni Jamie Sep 25 2022 3:39 am My goodness i was about to drop this shit because dude i got attached with the second male lead again but I also didn't like the way the male lead is behaving like tf?? And also why is her character like that I really expected it to not be weak like with just one yeobu she already got swayed!??? She clearly likes him but still?? She doesn't even know what he does I mean hes really strange going around in the middle of the night with a knife and then suddenly wanting a marriage but only on dinner time?? He clearly is weird and firmly I like the second lead more because I really think im sick of PMY having to be partners with office dudes maybe this could be the plot twist hopefully, this was not as good as I expected there already making PMYs character look weak when it comes to relationships that makes it awkward and also her gay friend or whatever they also have freaking chemist what's up with the weird cliche plot lmao clearly the plot is the ml feeling comfortable around PMY ep by ep while the 2nd ml gets jealous and they continue cooking like this is a cooking show jk but yah the climax would probably be about the 2nd ml and PMY getting an arranged wedding which is clearly not that impossible or something about the man that his been hiding my gosh when I first saw him it reminded me of So Yeji i was about to laugh but then I realized his character was not my type so I think I'll drop this In My Hella Opinion only because the male lead is mysterious af and I'll have an lovesick week because the 2nd male lead prob gonna be Mr. Lonely lol I got emotionally attached with the 2nd ml in just 2 episodes what more in the coming? Anyways hes just genuinely worried for Jamie or whatever is Pmy's name in the series and also there ex-fiance or almost fiance so I don't understand why the male lead is so aggressive istg i think he has some secrets that'll be the plotwist if not this will be cliche af ? i miss WWWSK wnxjsjsjsi I hope this series all best but please don't hurt the second lead to much lol im being biased her sorry but they need to show what on earth yhe male lead is up to is he taking cocaine or what jkk
Kay Sep 25 2022 1:22 am This drama is so good. I laughed so much from the very first episode. Park Min Young is totally slaying here and so many different outfits and so many different styles wow juts wow. Her Enisg accent is so good and even the other languages she spoke was so good. Multi-talented Queen is back. This is so different from all her previous dramas and I have been laughing so much. I really needed this drama right now. A must watch drama everyone.
Lhizee Sep 24 2022 7:53 pm Im liking this drama so far, the story, the mystery, the connections of the characters, even the cast, so good!! Hope it stays this good untill the end! The thing i like about Park Min Young is that she always has this good chemistry to anybody whom she’s working with! She is one of the few of my favorite kdrama actresses!
Rabbit Sep 24 2022 11:45 am Loving this drama. It's completely implausible, like all my favorite romantic comedies, but the mystery element is fun and of course the acting, sets, and styling are all superb. And I always love Kang Hyoung-Suk. Wish I could binge it!
Suzy Sep 24 2022 6:39 am Park Min Young's character here is totally different from all her previous characters and she has so many hairstyles, short and long, everything. She plays such a bubbly character here but seems like she has a painful back story. Can't wait to see how the story unfolds. The first 2 episodes were so much fun that I kept on retwatching many scenes. Park Min Young really is a master of her craft and fully immerses herself into the character she is playing.
Vangie Sep 23 2022 9:41 pm I am enjoying this drama so much~ I want to pull the days forward so I could have the next episodes soonest. I couldn't stop thinking about Park Min Young's and Ko Gyung Pyo's characters. This is probably one of the strongest chemistries (???) I've seen on TV. Kim Jae-Young is obviously the second lead and he's doing great at delivering his character as well. Looking to next eps~~~~~~~~!!!!
Courtesy Sep 23 2022 9:16 pm @ Reely the questions i was asking are actually related to foundation of the showand its central topic so they should have been made clear in first 2 episodes to avoid getting viewers confused, whike the show gave details on fl's marriage contracts it cleverly omits are relevant questions that come to mind when you see a show with this premise, so its like the story writers dont want us to ask logical questions about in your face things and just want us to watch whatever is on tv, and just praise and want us to just focus on female leads super expensive clothes and lifestyle and just be engrossed in that and don't bother with details the glamour is the selling point.
The drama shows the fl pays all her earnings to that wicked old woman whoever she is but despite that fl has so much money she only buys and wears branded clothes branded bags and shoes and her gouse is filled with them..
One would also ask if she is spending so much on her upkeep why she doesnt spend some on pursuing a degree or learning another skill so she could have left that job early on. Also the on paper court marriages and the fake marriage ceremonies is nothing cool, it just insults the institution of marriage and makes it look like a joke.
miss Sep 23 2022 6:53 pm love in contract is amazing! im still finding out who is the second lead is!!! i can't wait for ep 3&4 to come out
Sten Sep 23 2022 2:13 pm Not so into romantic comedies and quite predictable script BUT I still enjoy it :) Acting is great from good cast and after 2 episodes I look forward for more.
Un modeste admirateur Sep 23 2022 9:00 am « Love in Contract » is a must watch! I’m really delighted to see Park Min-Young return to romantic comedy, after two more serious dramas. Not that I want to restrict her to one genre, but seeing her smile on screen once again is like seeing a flower blooming anew. That’s when she is truly the queen of her generation. I see a comment below claiming that the drama is « normalizing perverse sexual relationships ». I understand the sentiment that TV series (in America at least) are pushing more and more the boundaries of sexuality. But, honestly, I don’t believe this applies to « Love in Contract ». The contractual relationships the main character is selling here are what we call « mariage blanc » in French, i.e. sexless marriage. For example, some people buy a « mariage blanc » to get citizenship in the country of their dreams. I’m not saying it’s moral or even legal (although there have been moral examples of « mariage blanc » in World War II to protect endangered Jews). But it has nothing in common with Epstein’s sex trafficking and abuses.
PMYfan Sep 23 2022 6:27 am I'm enjoying the drama overall. You can see how things are slowly coming together. Non-traditional but fun.
@Done&dusted Not sure if you're aware but there's already the phenomenon in Korea and Japan of hiring someone to play a wife or husband. So this is reflecting something current.
xoxolmh Sep 23 2022 4:42 am Kim Jae Young is most likely the second lead of this drama base on his screen time (Ep1). Nevertheless, rooting for him. Looking forward seeing him more (EP2 and more)
DineBells Sep 22 2022 10:09 pm People here are so complicated. If you don't like the plot, then don't watch it. You're confusing the viewers with your comments. Personally, i enjoyed the first 2 episodes. It's refreshing with a rom-com-suspense vibe. Btw, its not a polyamorous relationship because there's no love & lust involve. Her marriages & divorces is purely business.
Reely Sep 22 2022 7:24 pm I started watching because of the castings! No doubt, PMY really does well in this kind of genre. I get intrigued too after the first ep and I’m about to watch the second one now hehe. So far, I’m looking forward for the next eps
@courtessy you have so many questions, chill hahaha its just two ep, of course it wont be revealed immediately and we have to wait till the drama progresses on
Faith Sep 22 2022 7:02 pm I will try to watch this drama With Jin Kyung here and Mr Ahn suk-Wan. ?
Courtesy Sep 22 2022 2:41 pm I am very confused over few things , 1) when she calls clients to a hotel to evaluate them how she connects her laptop with camera to check them out? Like does she own the hotel how that setting is done? Then its so unprofessional of her to invite at vebue and not meet unless she sees them on a camera the whole setup is confusing. 2) how she runs this business? Like how she finds her clients? Like is there a firm she is signed up with that fibds her cleints or how he shes finds them? 3) how she is paid so well to maintain such high lifestyle.4) she has 12 dovorces how come noone at court notices that and i am assuming there could be laws to prevent using marriage as a business 5) with some clients she does court marriage then how during that marriage she marries or court marries another client. The business model is not eveb explained. Also people who take her as partners wouldnt their family members ask them where their ex wife is at.
Peace Sep 22 2022 2:02 pm The 2 episodes have been so good so far. The second episode had me rolling on the floor laughing. This is how a romcom should be done. But I think there are so many sad stories from the past of the main characters. Park Min Young is so gorgeous and she works so hard to completely immerse into her characters. She has totally nailed her character here. And the way she spoke so many languages and completely did justice to them. This drama deserves a lot of love and recognition.
sf Sep 22 2022 12:05 pm Is this drama only a place for the leading actress to pass from one make-up and hairstyle to another and from one clothes to another? This drama is nothing more than the actress parade on a scene. When will start the actions?
Maureen Chilanga Sep 22 2022 3:46 am The first episodes was really good to watch.looking forward to the next episodes..i really need to know mr jung's personality and story
Zin Sep 21 2022 7:45 pm I really enjoy the first episode you can see how versatile is Park Minyoung, she can do action too her acting is on top... I love the two male leads thy both have chemistry with PMY which is known for Queen of Chemistry no wonder why my heart's flutter omooo it deserves a high rating so entertaining 100 percent
Pmyfan Sep 21 2022 7:02 pm First episode was so satisfying. I'm hoping more people will tune in.
Leave a comment Sep 21 2022 6:08 pm The ploy synopsis doesnt it sound like polyamorous relationship. Like informing your partner and being involved in multiple relationships.
pmy lover Sep 21 2022 5:01 pm I hope it's on Netflix
Love Sep 21 2022 2:33 pm Really loved the first episode. Wow Park Min Young really nailed her character. Her English accent was so good. I read that both of the male leads and even the director accepted the drams just because of Park Min Young. The power she holds is truly amazing and she received the script more than a year ago. I really loved how she made me laugh and cry in the first episode already. It's her first time playing such a rich character and she really looked so beautiful in the first episode. Can't wait for the next episode. I really needed this drama in my life.
nancy Sep 21 2022 1:39 am is this gonna be on netflix?
H4 Sep 20 2022 5:52 am Waiting & interest for tomorrow
lululu Sep 19 2022 11:20 pm You mean to say no international OTT service has picked this up???
Meowkee Sep 18 2022 7:35 pm Can't wait see her again in television????
Shairli Sep 15 2022 5:49 pm PMY is an amazing actress & love her from Sungkyunwan Scandal. She is typecasted to almost the same role, time to try more challenging role pls. Last drama that I anticipated was Her Private Life.
Meow Sep 15 2022 9:01 am If I ever watch this drama it is probably because of Kim Jae Young ???
GrassForNeos Sep 12 2022 9:48 pm I'm so excited to watch this drama because of Kim Jae Young. He is one of my favorite actors. I hope that he will become a main lead but from the way the name lists, it seems like he's going to second male lead. Probably I need to prepare tissues first lol.
Lala land Sep 04 2022 2:59 pm According to the synopsis, it's a marriage not a girlfriend contract. So how in the world was she able to pull it off and for Five years too? I'm just wondering though. And it's giving "Little Lady Agency" vibes
Can't literally wait!!! Aug 31 2022 2:44 am This has a very good concept actually!! I like stories like this. I wish I can read this if this is an adaptation or something.
Jk Aug 30 2022 11:20 pm Actually I think ko gyung pyo will be with Park min young but I personally ship jae young and min young
Jojo Aug 24 2022 2:12 pm Park Min Young always delivers her 100% It’s her 3rd romcom. She has already done so many genres in her career. She delivers different emotions in all romcoms. I think this drama will be a hit as the story is so unique and Park Min Young’s dramas are always a must watch.
K Aug 23 2022 9:52 pm I can imagine her running back and forth ?
Okay Aug 23 2022 12:28 pm PMY always gets casted in romcoms. After watching a few melodramas, I hope she tries more of this genre so we can see more of her range in acting.
Ralph Ezekiel cariaso Aug 22 2022 6:56 pm I hope it will be available on Netflix.
Priyanshi Aug 17 2022 4:32 pm So excited for this! PMY is a great actress. I wonder if this will be on Netflix.
Nami Aug 17 2022 3:32 pm @MG nope it's not, it's far different from remarriage and desire have you read the sypnosis it's says it all..it's about a rental bride that's it... Can't wait for this series
Spring Joy Aug 12 2022 6:32 am Can’t wait for this one. Whatever Park Minyoung touches just turns to gold. She has the magic to make any chemistry work and it will be so interesting to see her in this love triangle. Really can’t wait. Chemistry Queen Park Minyoung.
Gkjklt Aug 12 2022 5:53 am I am really gonna mad if she end up with KJY..because I really see the chemistry between PMY and KGP please let them be together in this drama ...
MG Aug 11 2022 11:53 pm Remarriage and desire vibe ?
Renata Aug 11 2022 10:26 pm I can't wait for the broadcast, it looks like it's going to be a cute and romantic story.
