Weakest of the My Dear Losers
Out of the 3 series for My Dear Loser, Happily Ever After was probably my least favorite. Honestly, I was just trying to get to the end of the series so I could see Sun and In again in the later episodes. I know this is a drama, but I struggled to suspend my disbelief as things seemed to keep getting worse for Ton and Korya.
Ton and Korya's relationship is...yikes...how has this couple stayed together for 10 years!?! Korya tries the hardest in the relationship and yet she is constantly berated for being a nag and about her weight. In regards to her nagging, Ton doesn't have very good life habits for someone who is in their 30s and has been in the workforce for a decade. Korya's points are all valid and striving to be helpful. As for her weight, I hope Esther did not suffer too much from having to be called "fat" or "double-chinned" for 11 episodes worth of filming on top of the fact the director constantly put her in comically large clothing to drive the point further.
The impractically of this relationship aside, there was some good character development and acting from the supporting cast/characters. I loved Por's character! Pompam was a great actor in this and was good at conveying the ups, downs and challenges his character faced. Jeng and Jitra's relationship was also very well portrayed. Like Ton, Jeng still had a lot of growing up to do and Jitra's no-nonsense response to his behavior balances them out; plus, they're the comic relief of the show. Finally, there is Win. Poor Win, he has everything, but the thing he wants. He serves as the voice of reason for all the characters; I spent most of this series yelling at the screen, "Yes! Listen to Win!" In the end, at least, it seems there is hope for him to move on and find something new for his life.
Like the other My Dear Loser series, I think the director thought she could slap a trope onto the main couple and that would write and lead the plot until the end. This series is a little bit of a slog to get through, but it does have some golden moments and if you make it to the end, the final episode does make you smile at seeing how the My Dear Loser trilogy concludes.
