Mad for Each Other

The series starts out like many other romantic comedies, but soon turns into a quite sophisticated exploration of the consequences of trauma, and how we struggle to recover from it within ourselves while still trying to develop and maintain relationships with others.

Jung Woo has matured nicely since his role in Reply 1994, and Oh Yeon So is affectingly realistic as a woman traumatised by her experiences.

Definitely worth your time, and while you will get some laughs, you will also have some gut punch moments.

EDIT: Unfortunately it seems to have fallen foul of the TV viewer percentages, and the final episode (13) was the last four crammed into one! Sad.

First of all, need to say that unlike the other Korean dramas, the episodes are short (just 30 mins) and there are only 13 episodes! Makes it even more fun to binge watch.

Secondly, the drama is hilarious but with a great underlining message. This drama talks mainly about trauma, human behaviour when they are with trauma and how others see them, how easily manipulated Koreans are with just mere gossip (without fact checking), and how everyone right away judge people as "bad" just because they heard a rumour, and how their lives are affected by "scandals". And on top of this, there's a nice mystery to solve as well.

Got to say, 'Mad for Each Other' covers a lot of aspects. And it feels very real. The acting and chemistry among the leads and the support cast is excellent. You will feel frustrated when they are sad, you will feel joy when they are happy, and when they cry, you will cry with them!

A must watch!

This is a very well written drama, with no clichés or silly dragging misunderstandings. Everything happens with a very quick pace and you will never get bored.

Its a drama about all the emotions we go through when dealing with the events happening in our lives. Tackles mental health and social problems like abuse and discrimination but how important is to just acknowledge those issues, work on them so we accept them and get back on your feet so you can go on living.

The main leads have an undeniable chemistry and the performances of the cast are just outstanding. The friendships the secondary leads have and the loyalty towards each other is just so pure.

Its a story that will lead you through a rollercoaster of emotions, you will get angry, and sad and frustrated, but then you will laugh, feel their love and root for their happiness.

I 100% recommend this show, it's short but sweet and its well worth your time.

This is a nice change only 25 min and the actors play the insane role well.

Much like my peers before, this is definitely a feel good drama. But most importantly the male lead, Jung Woo knows how to use his facial expressions and acting skills and isn't just yet another pretty mannequin boy (much like all 20 year old kdrama actors that can't be bothered with acting, it creates crevices around their pretty faces). It was absolutely refreshing to see great acting and a simple yet deeply touching script and cast. Highly recommend watching it.
