Melo definitely suits them, and its ok to be melo, isn't life always a bit melo anyways?
This drama definitely felt like Age of Youth, but in their 30s. Instead of school life, it focus on women and them juggling their careers and personal life. Perhaps because I really enjoyed Age of Youth, I also really enjoyed Be Melodramatic.
It is more of a slice-of-life drama, journeying with the characters through their personal highs and lows and the in-between (there is a lot of in-between moments). There is no sweeping romances, but slightly heart-fluttering and fuzzy romances. No crazy plot twists or twisted villains, just life getting in the way (e.g: death of a loved one, being a single mother, getting stuck in an unfulfilling job). I do think that there are more funnier scenes than melodramatic scenes, such that I find the drama title ironic. I also like how the drama incorporates meta.
Some of the characters might not be the most likeable at the start, but they definitely become endearing at the end of the dramas. Especially the male characters, some of them seem too aloof or arrogant, but gradually and somehow, the story reveals more to their initial impression and ended up liking their characters at the end of the drama. I am realllly liking Jeon Yeo Bin's acting, especially now watching Vincenzo too. I think because the actors/actresses are not the most well-known, I got to really immersed myself with the characters of the drama (lol sounds weird but idk how else to phrase), not comparing with their other works. (excluding ahn jae hong in reply 1988 and lee yoo jin in age of youth)
Sadly, maybe the drama's production is smaller or for other reasons, the OST is lackluster-ish. Different covers of the same song is repeated in the drama. Initially, it was played for gags, but it kinda overtook as the main theme as the song is still about romance which fits the drama. It is nice that one of the cover is sang by the main leads (I am not too sure tbh but it sounded like their voices). And now this song is stuck in my head :') (Song: Your Shampoo Scent in the Flowers - jang beom june)
I have to end this review with my favourite quote/dialogue from this drama, maybe even the best quote ever (paraphrased): "You'll always be moneyless, you don't have money now because you're studying, then after getting a job, you'll get married and need a house, but it belongs to the bank, so you still don't have money. Then you'll pay back the mortgage but when you have children, then you'll send them to college to provide them good education, then when its retirement, you'll not have any money. And that is just the successful cases, there are worse ones yet."
