Romantizou a infidelidade :/
Um filme que parecia que iria mostrar as facetas de um relacionamento que está fadado a dar errado pois ambos estão cometendo erros, mas que iria funcionar após eles enfrentar este momento.Só que 'My love, My bride' não faz o melhor trabalho em mostrar isso, já que um dos maiores erros é encoberto e nunca falado ou levado ao conhecimento da outra pessoa, fiquei inconformada, a traição aconteceu teve oportunidade de confessar mas escolheu enganar e viver a vida como se nada tivesse acontecido, como se aquilo não tivesse importância e seu amor fosse agora algo sincero.
.
.
Que um casamento nem sempre é um mar de rosas isso a gente já sabe, mas eles tentaram vender isso como se ambas as pessoas no relacionamento tivessem feito algo errado, quando na realidade, foi principalmente o Young Min que fez tudo de errado.
A maior culpa da esposa foi pedir ao marido para ajudar nas responsabilidades domésticas? (os dois trabalhavam fora) ou para não mijar respingando todo o vaso? ( se teve algo mais grave eu perdi de vista esta cena).
Young Min inventava cenários em sua cabeça de coisas que sua esposa está fazendo sem ela dar motivos para tal desconfiança (acho que isso era só reflexo dele mesmo pois na primeira oportunidade ele se agarra com outra mulher).
Respondendo a pergunta na sinopse: "Enquanto lutam para fazer seu casamento funcionar, Young Min e Mi Young conseguem aprender o segredo para um relacionamento duradouro? " Resposta: não eles não aprendem o segredo, na verdade se o segredo era a mentira, então sim, uma das partes descobriu O_O .
Esse casal devia ter seguido caminhos separados.

The film does start off as a cute romance movie. There are loads of adorable moments and it helps that the main actors have great chemistry. We see the beginnings of the crack in the relationship, but our couple powers through and moves onto the honeymoon stage. This is where things begin to get dicey and the nicely laid foundation starts to fall apart and show that it is not all about romance, but human mistakes that can cost a relationship.
To its core, My Love, My Bride is a movie about how to make a relationship work and the mistakes one can make while in anger or misunderstanding. It doesn't do the best job at showing this as one the biggest mistakes is glossed over and never spoke of or brought to the attention of the other person. It essentially becomes no big deal and solidifies that it is okay to not tell your partner/spouse about what happened as long as your love becomes/is sincere.
That is the thing I dislike most about this film. I don't like lies, especially lies that aren't technically lies if you don't guess the truth.
The other thing that had my gears in a twist is what caused this chain of events (thus 'justifying' things to come): Mi Young meeting a coworker while she and her husband were on a date (as the in the summary). Even though Mi Young assures her husband, Young Min, that he is just a coworker and yet Young Min still dreams up false scenarios. In which we get the idea that men and women can't be friends without thoughts of sex or flirtation. See why my gears are grinding?
The characters are not flawless. They each have their own flaws. Mi Young, the wife, nags about housekeeping (if you can call that a flaw), and Young Min, the husband, is self centered, quick to ignore and say hurtful things. There's lots of bickering and makeups as the characters struggle to do the right thing and most often than not the wrong thing is said before the right thing is found.
Despite the miscommunication between characters (which would have solved everything), the movie is actually good. It lagged some in the middle and picked back up in strength toward the end. Don't go in expecting some feel good romantic comedy. You won't find that here. What you will find is a romance movie that becomes less about romance and more about the mistakes humans make while in love and the heartache that can come with it.

Misleading trailer - this is NOT a rom-com >.<
My Love, My Bride has been on my plan to watch list for a very long time - I was excited to finally watch it. But I'm left disappointed because the movie did not play out the way I thought it would. The biggest flaw was how misleading the trailer is. The trailer makes it seem like it's a light, fluffy, rom-com, but instead it's most definitely a melodrama. The misleading trailer led to a very disappointing and unpleasant experience.If the trailer has been a more accurate reflection (or if I hadn't watched the trailer) I think my experience would have been very different. Though, I'm not entirely sure since I don't really like stories of this type anyways.
The story revolves around a couple who have a bunch of issues which are "resolved" by the end of the movie, but I wouldn't consider them well matched or happily together, even in the end.
What caused this strong distaste, something that I've found to be more popular these days, was romanticizing and justifying infidelity. Upon integrating this plot point was when I really couldn't root for their relationship anymore. I know this story was supposed to be "real" and portraying what life as a couple is like with all it's ups and downs, but for me, it went too far. Cheating on your significant other should not be the point in which you realize you love them; you've gone to a point of no return - betrayal.
Don't normalize and romanticize infidelity. It's wrong - plain and simple - and you should be met with the consequences of your betrayal. Further, just because you had good times/memories does not mean that you are well suited for each other. Just because you have good sex does not mean that you have an overall healthy relationship. We all have our complicated relationships that have inevitable problems, but this was not entertaining to watch, as it crosses a lot of moral lines. While some people might find that they can empathize with this couple, it is NOT a story I can associate with, as I hold myself to higher morals. Overall, My Love, My Bride was sad and depressing, and worse, the trailer did NOT prepare me for this type of story at all.

Not a rom-com just a bad story sold as romance
Honestly me giving this story a 2 star is a bit of an overstatement of how I feel about the movie. The only reason is because of the cast and the acting. I can't deny that the cast is great and their acting is just as great. HOWEVER, that is all. I really just watched it because a lot of actors I like are in it and the trailer looked cute.The trailer is very misleading. It sells itself as a funny rom-com of a couple having light-hearted fights but, in reality, the things they fought over are verrry real and honestly disgusting. They tried to sell it as if both people in the relationship have done something wrong when, in reality, the man mainly did all the wrong. How is the wife at fault for telling her husband to do housework and share responsibilities? They made her look like an over bearing witch. On top of that, it became an excuse for him cheating and being an all around selfish asshole. That's not a light issue. It became increasingly frustrating when he got mad at her for allegedly cheating when he was the one doing the cheating. They tried to make it look like it was funny but it wasn't, it just left a sour taste in my mouth. Just a word of advice for anyone who has a partner like him: RUN. People like that don't change and take advantage of those around them. His friends were also terrible and if that isn't telling, I don't know what is.
They ended by "resolving" their issues and getting back together. If you could call it "resolved". In reality, she got slack for something she didn't deserve to get slack for and he didn't even properly apologize. I truly wish it ended with her leaving him. It's not like the movie was that romantic anyways. At the end of the day, the husband didn't deserve his wife and the movie was neither romantic nor funny. I really wanted something to wind me down after exams and well...this just made me mad and jaded about marriage. I hope anyone reading this (including myself) doesn't end up with such a partner.

It was a simple story of how to make a marriage work. Its not always rainbows and butterflies, but as long as one is true to their loved ones, there is nothing that cannot be accomplished. And that's love.
The acting, music and story were realistic. No twists and turns. No villains. It was calm and smooth sailing.
It could have been better but overall, It was a happy movie.

Okay but not great
So I completely skipped over the part that this was a melodrama and went into this expecting it would be a cute and fluffy romcom. When the movie didn't meet my expectations, the experience was ruined for me. I don't usually enjoy melodramas and I usually skip that genre altogether to be honest. So not even my love for the cast could make up for my disappointment.As the biggest fans of Shin Min-a and Jo Jung-suk, this has been on my list for ages and something I was most excited to watch. As quickly as I caught on that it wasn't going to be a cute romcom, I found myself struggling to finish it.
Young-min, the husband is depicted as a man who is only interested in having sex with his wife Mi-young in the begining of the film. There's an entire montage of him constantly taking off his pants to do it with her while they are in the honeymoon stage and then as the film moves pass this, he becomes weirdly obsessed with wanting to sleep with every female he sees: his ex friend, his young naive coworker and female strangers etc. He goes through this unbelievable horny phase and almost cheats on his wife. This storyline topped with little things like peeing on the toilet seat don't exactly paint him like a great husband nor make marriage look appealing. Young-min's flaw is that he insecure in his marriage, this is evident when he makes up scenarios in his head, while on a movie date with his wife when they bump into a younger co-worker of hers and he gets jealous, thinking his wife is flirting. We also see further examples of his insecurities about himself in comparison to the wife's co-worker (their height difference, his career, the fact that he and his wife rode a bus to the cinema but the co-worker drives a BMW etc)
Mi-young, the wife is pretty perfect in my opinion and too good for him, let's be honest. She works as an art teacher, cooks for her husband and when given the opportunity to continue to meet up with someone from her past (her first love and ex boyfriend) she doesn't even entertain the thought because she doesn't want to cheat. Unlike her husband, who made out with his ex-friend/ his old crush at the first opportunity that he could (while his wife was sleeping over at her mum's place) and probably would've cheated if his old crush didn't stop it. I guess the only flaw the movie paints Mi-young to have is her nagging her husband about cleaning up after himself or lifting the toilet seat up when he needs to pee, but I didn't see anything wrong with that. Most wives would do the same in this situation and her nagging didn't come across as anything overly annoying.
I guess the point of the movie is to show that these two maybe not so quite suited for each other people somehow make their marriage work in the end. The film ends with the husband unsure if he's found the meaning of love but somehow content with his life with his wife and newborn baby.
Overall, its a movie that you probably watch once but never again. It wasn't my favourite but it wasn't terrible either. It was okay but not great either.

Not really what I expected
It was supposedly a cute movie about love and marriage but I can't stand the message.So the male lead's almost-an-affair is nothing to be revealed? And it's considered as a normal behavior? I thought it would cause a scene between the main couple.
This man is such a jerk to me, for being over-jealous towards for no clear reason, just him being so childish and possessive, and for taking her as a bad inspiration to write poems, for ignoring her, and worst, for letting his jerks aka so-called friends embarass her and not protecting her.
I really don't think the ending is a happy ending for the female lead. She deserves so much better.

Could've Been Better
The story is bearable but could've been improved. It's basically a light take on trials married couples go through. I like the acting the two leads showed, they somewhat gave justice to how married life is in a cute way- mostly during the first half...What didn't seat right to me was the cheating and how the other woman even had the audacity to lecture the wife and act all wife material during a certain event. I'm also annoyed at how the husband didn't even seem guilty for doing what he did. That major part of the story was just shoved under the rug when it seemed like one of the most important aspects of the movie.

i unlike the other commenter don't think this movie is about cheaters, but a young couple coping with being married and all that comes along in a new relationship/marriage. dating while living apart can't be compared to living together and getting used to the others idiosyncrasies. both have their own idea/ideal of what/ how their spouse show be, but that isn't reality. its accepting and conforming, so u can become a unit, in order for any marriage/relationship to survive.
Young-min "cheating" episode or roaming-eye, was more like last minute jitters, cause he is committed to one woman, some get this before marriage, others several yrs after being married. it has nothing to do with him not loving her, he was just going crazy and when push-came-to-shove his subconscious called Seung-hee - Mi-young telling her he loved her, his subconscious cock-blocked him, cause he really didn't want to cheat.
Mi-young on the other hand wasn't any better, yeah she didn't kiss anyone or almost get into bed with them, but she spent the whole day prettying herself-up to go see an old crush (which after the concert - the whole scene was cringe worthy). and her fawning over Joon-soo at the cinema was also annoying, her laughing and touching him again and again even if he is someone younger that u work with - it doesn't look good, and of course ur husband would get pissed - like how she got pissed when she found out one of his "bros" was a girl. this fun and fine for a one off
