well, it's a simple story.

are you looking for a drama with a complex, thought out storyline and realistic potrayal of a mlm couple? then keep looking. are you looking for a cute, short and simple little comedic drama that you can finish in one sitting? then stop looking. obviously this drama isn't the best, but it's not the worst either. the plot is rather simple and basic; an arranged marriage and someone pretending to be the opposite gender. this drama also has the typical korean bl style, a movie length drama squished into a series with short episodes. if you don't take this drama too serious, expecting a realistic historic korean drama with

Good enough

Korean Mini Series 'Nobleman Ryu's Wedding' was an interesting take on BL genre, as this time it takes place during the Joseon era. And whether that opens a big space of opportunities to explore, the drama opts for a more cliche approach.

That is, the story starts in an odd way, as the two meet under the most unreasonable circumstances (like, he didn't look like his sister, how the transition from him to her would have ever work?). On top of that, and even though Ryu's family environment provided enough twists for the two to create a strong relationship, the drama adds a love triangle! Finally, the ending was pretty rushed and but it was a happy one at least.

The performances, finally, were all enjoyable and everyone did a great job. The settings and costumes were pretty realistic as well.

So, overall, 4.5 out of 10.

Short and most certainly sweet

Many like me have been waiting for a good historical BL series and this kind of delivers that. The story is rather simple and with the limited run time they were able to show some good aspects of the 2 leads life together. The first few episodes is kind of funny with the mother-in-law and sister-in-law not able to recognise that their daughter-in-law is a guy and then we have a friend that falls head-over-heels for the "wife".
The story although simple contains a potential to be something epic but unfortunately it was lost. The story starts at surface level and remains there throughout the 8 episodes. They could have used that limited time wisely by showing some great interactions between the 2 male leads instead of utilizing it on comedy. This story requires a few more episodes spanning around 30 min each to flesh it out completely, build the multiple characters and their relationships so that the ending doesn't feel rushed.
This is certainly not a bad series by any stretch and can be easily binge-watched to enjoy it.

Nicely filmed even if nothing spectacular

With only eight episodes that run barely more than ten minutes each, the story is told quite competently. There are some BLs with more and longer episodes that end up meandering around nowhere.

There is a happy ending--it is probably what most viewers want even if it is unrealistic. What happened to the parents, especially Ho Seon's father? I doubt they will let a political wedding be annulled so easily. Even if it is, another one will be arranged. In fact, in the first place, did anyone really expect Ki Wan to be able to replace his sister temporarily (how are they going to explain the totally different faces when the sister returns?) But let's not think so much about such things and enjoy the sweetness.

Since we do not expect realism anyway, I feel that the series could have gone further with the attraction between Ho Seon and Ki Wan. There are some nice moments, but I feel that the intensity of emotions and the accompanying struggles are not really portrayed for most of the episodes. I'm not one of those who complain about the lack of kissing scenes or skinship in BLs, but I find that the creators of the series seem a little too cautious about portraying the characters' love for each other. At one point, I even thought that it would be a fake BL, with Ki Wan's sister returning and becoming the real wife.

Despite the hesitation in showcasing actual BL moments, the scenes are nicely shot even with an apparently limited budget. The make-up for Ki Wan is also nicely done--it doesn't make the cross-dressing comical. Interestingly, it seems that his masculine features are accentuated more when he is dressed as a woman though it looks believable that he might be mistaken for a woman.

Ultimately, we have a simple story with some nice BL moments. It's ok enough to spend an hour and a half watching though it is unlikely to be remembered as a classic BL.

quero casar

A Coréia tinha todo o direito de errar, menos com esse drama. A serie como um todo te atrai muito mais que a aparência dos atores. A ost é MUITO boa, o plot é bem pensado e bem produzido. os outros aspectos como filmagens, roteiro posso dizer que todos foram muito profissionais e todos estão no ponto certo, realmente pensei que o final seria um erro, mas não foi. Porém como um todo não teve nada memorável, foi algo bem na media, jogaram muito sem se arriscar, não sei se é porque são os primeiros dramas mas realmente essa forma instantânea de se fazer as series me incomodam bastante, a historia fica muito no ar e você não consegue manter o interesse, se houvesse um tempo entre o lançamento do penúltimo e ultimo episodio eu acredito que muitas pessoas não assistiriam o final. Porém agora até eu quero casar '-'

WATCH NOW!

This is one of the cute sweetest stories I've ever watched. My only complaint is that I wanted more! If you are looking for a light easy super cute and sweet romance this is it! And it's super short and on average 11 mins with 8 eps (unfortunately) it left me completely satisfied but still wanting to see more. Super new to BL so I can't compare it to others but with definitely recommend it to anyone willing to listen! I promise you won't regret it. I almost didn't pick it up due to the one or two bad comments but it kept nagging at me so I picked it up and here I am making an account just to make a comment on how much I loved this.

It was okay, not a superb series like I expected.

So, I thought the premise was super amazing and it was something I (and others) wanted to see: a Korean period drama with gay romance. I was hoping for the same quality as Where Your Eyes Linger and To My Star, but it just doesn't seem to reach those stars (no pun intended). Perhaps it was just the execution which made it fall through.

First of all, the romance just seemed so forced. Not exactly sure why, but it just did not seem as genuine - it didn't really help that there were all these tropes of cross-dressing and everything. Also the SLS seemed forced and as if the writer was trying to push it down our throats.

Also on another note, it was way too clear that it was her brother and not Hwajin herself. It's so obvious from the voice and the facial structure. They kept it like that to advance the plot, but it just turned me off - it's just not believable.

Acting was okay, some of it was great and other parts were slightly bland.

I will say I kind of liked the kiss at the end even though it was the typical flat kiss. It's sort of cute though.

Overall I probably wouldn't rewatch to be honest, it's kind of boring to me and I fail to see the charm in it. The poster had me all excited but the actual drama seemed to not live up to the expectations. It's definitely not crappy though for how long each episode is. I just wouldn't watch this when I can watch other shows.

The Potential Was There

Oh how excited I was for this series given the setting and great potential. But oh how quickly that excitement faded when, in the very first episode, I already felt lost and like I had been thrust into the middle of a drama that had been airing for weeks already. (When I tell you I checked the episode number numerous times and even came to the comments here to confirm that episode 1 was indeed that disorienting....).

I guess the biggest critique I have is that it felt like the writers were trying to squeeze too many conflicts and storylines in at once instead of focusing on one that was most important. In a roughly 80-90 minute production, did we really need to see those meddlesome intrusions from Jin Hee and Tae Hyung? No. If anything, they took away from the story rather than adding to it. I much would have preferred the time being spent on developing Ho Sun and Ki Won's relationship and/or diving more into the (albeit slight) political nature of this kind of set up. This felt rushed in a way that other Korean BLs of the same length did not. It also felt slightly underdeveloped, like the beginnings of an idea that took off too soon. The concept was there. The execution and solid plot development was not. This felt more like a collection of slice-of-life one shots in the back of a manga than a fully realized story.

The acting was fine except that I felt no romantic chemistry between the leads whatsoever. I blame this in part on the writing and lack of attention devoted to building that much-needed tension between the leads, but I also think Kang In Soo is to blame, as I felt that the other BL he starred in (Wish You) lacked romantic chemistry as well (meanwhile, I absolutely adored Lee See Jin's romance in Mr. Heart).

Overall, I'd still recommend, mainly because it's so short and not much of a time commitment. I really liked this premise of having a sageuk BL and wish the creators here were given the time and space to really flesh this drama out the way a complex historical drama should be. But props to them for trying and for giving us a setting and storyline that we haven't necessarily seen before in this drama. I give it one thumb up.

Don't expect too much out of this mini series.. just watch and enjoy!

As my title reads...
The duration of this series is too small to even comment over it.

When I first read the synopsis of this I was really excited coz the story was something different and the actors casted were amazing as I had seen their earlier work.

As the series began, it was very interesting..
The banter between sis in law and gender switched wife, the sexual tension between the leads and their undeniable chemistry.

The actors are superb.. the second lead literally talks with his eyes... The fire in his eyes is something out of this world.

I somewhere feel their talent and acting skill was not fully used in here.
Towards the end the story felt lacking the charisma with which it started.
Despite being 10 mins short.. the last episode felt draggy and unnecessary.

But as I had mentioned before.. it is too mini of a series to even expect something out of it.
Complaining about it makes me sour since I give it the back door that due to lack of time the makers couldn't give justice to the story and it's closure.

I conclude with the following :
Watch this series for the actors, chemistry between them and their handsome faces!! ;)

Alright but nothing mind-blowing

Well, I'm writing this review, cause no one is :).

I'm in two minds about this show. I think we often feel like the Korean bls have a lot to offer, but yeah, they are always quite short. I honestly didn't mind the short runtime in the previous ones, but in this one, it was extremely visible. I felt like these 80 minutes weren't enough for this story and thus it was pretty rushed, especially towards the end (and at the very beginning).
Story: I like the idea of the story, it would be interesting in a longer series, but here I felt like nothing really happened.
Acting/Cast: I think the cast was amazing, and their acting performance didn't disappoint. I felt the chemistry, so yeah, I was very sattisfied with this.
Music: I didn't really notice the music until the last episode, where I really liked the song used, so that was nice.
Rewatch value: I think this is a good show for binge-watching, but maybe only for once? I'm leaving my door open though.
Overall: Maybe I had too high expectations of it, because I'm used to amazing historical Chinese dramas. However, I liked the vibe of the series - it was light-hearted and nothing serious and dramatic, so if that's what you're looking for, this might be a show for you :).

Simple but Cute

Okay, so YET AGAIN a Korean BL drama delivers a cute yet INCREDIBLY SHORT series! I liked I recognized some faces (just shows how much BL I watch I guess) lmao This series wasn't necessarily good nor was it bad. I kinda considered some parts to be more like a quirky BL parody with the tid bits of comedy. It was nice to see something cute, funny but not cheesy. Had the series been longer I'm sure the plot would've been more solid but it's a good, simple, quick watch that I don't consider much of a waste of time. It did more "past scenes" than I would've liked since that obviously cut into the time of the series but oh well. The visuals were pretty nice lol
Enjoy...

What you expect.

I have nothing exceptionally good or bad to say about this one.
In lack of much else does the sentence - and my chosen headline - sum it all up pretty well; it's exactly what you expect it to be, with the possibility of more chemistry than anticipated.

STORY: 6/10
There was a lot left to be wished for in terms of characters development, fleshed-out story, tied ends and engagement, but it'll get one point above clean in-between for not being a high school drama. I'm a big fan of historical dramas, and for just a handful of 10-minute episodes, did it do alright. It actually didn't feel very rushed, something that even larger productions easily fail at most times, and that's also something that deserves a highlight. That and the openness about their "situation" between the two main characters actually made me very content.
The general plot intrigued me in its cliche glory, and I'm left feeling like I got exactly what I expected.
My one wish would've been if they skipped maybe one of their attempt at drama and took those precious minutes to give other happenings a more sincere closure, as they all felt like they were just left once the gasp-inducing moment was over.

ACTING/CASTING: 7/10
I wish this had been a large-production situation because the two leads held some incredible chemistry? If given the time and opportunity I genuinely believe these two would be in the top 10 pairings, at least on my end. Something about how they held themselves around each other and looked at one another felt very real and carried this series through and through. The majority of the script was quite cringy, but when they interacted it didn't even phase me.
Overall casting was good, no one really shone or stood out but again, these shorter series don't exactly have the room for it. So using that as a grid does a 7 feel about right.

MUSIC: 5/10
It was your general lower budget drama OST, nothing which sent your eyes watering but also didn't go completely bonkers either haha.

REWATCH VALUE: 1/10
Once is enough. You won't get much else out of a second watch besides maybe picking up on yet another loose end.

OVERALL: 5/10
It takes no time to watch, so do please give it that 1.5 h that it takes to get through. While not mind-blowing is it sweet, calm and completely freed of those awkward moments taken from thousand different angles where something painfully awkward happens.
