Re: K-Drama: 아내의 유혹 (Lure of Wife/Temptation of Wife)


Well, this farce ended here last night. I haven't watched it for a few days, so I don't know how it got there, but I do know how it ends.

Suffice it to say, that as absurd as I found it all along, the ending took it to a whole new level of idiocy for the viewer.

This drama was, bar none, the worst piece of drivel I've ever seen. I did take it with a grain of salt and realized the writers were having fun with us, but as hard as I tried, I wasn't laughing.

Thankfully, that's over. emoticon

As much as I would love to know how this ends, I will, never, ever, again look at an ending before it's TV time. Once, and only once, did I do that and totally regretted it -- from that point on, the drama lost the lustre and all anticipation went out the window.

In this one, I like trying to figure out players' moves. However, in this one, I think I am on very thin ice. EJ is losing her edge and instead of being one step ahead of Ae-ri, she's backtracking, slow to respond.

Lady Min has such class. Like the way she delivers those zingers while being cool, eloquent and dangerous. Sure hope when she finds out Star is her daughter she will allow GW and EJ to marry -- is she really holding onto EJ to honor Soo Hee's memory or is she out to maintain a daughter relationship which typifies her success in business as well as motherhood?

This is a wonderful cast. Very entertaining.

It ended here on SBS at 129 episodes. Like I said, I didn't watch it on a regular basis, but it came on after City Hall, so I caught the ending one night. I don't know what will follow, nothing new has started yet.

Hey nchristi do you have any idea what Winter drama we'll be seeing? Hope it's something wonderful.
Sorry I took so long to answer, Star1. And sorry, too, that I haven't a clue as to what will be shown after this one.

smoochie now understand how you can watch, knowing ending, if you didn't follow every episode. To me, this is like working a difficult corssword and wanting to steal a glance at answer, yet resisting because I must do it myself . . .

So-hee's return came as no shock to me. So-hee was closer to shore than EJ but body was never recovered (?) . . . this part of puzzle is a given. I wonder if So-hee's return will somehow have her hooked up with Ae-ri (who still does it ever stop? has to come up with money for sharks). Could Ae-ri convince So-hee to give her money to kidnap EJ just before she is to walk down the aisle? Will So-hee be wearing EJ's gown to stand next to Gun-Wu as he lifts the veil to kiss his bride?

I hope Lady Min's comment (to her daughter's pic) that Gun-Wu should be happy for even one day is not going to happen. Please, please let EJ marry Gun-Wu.

Will it be Kang-Jae and aunt who actually marry, with Ae-ri going to jail after she tries to take aunt's inheritance?

Hello! Doesn't anyone go to jail here?
A baby was murdered.


nchristi thnx -- guess we'll just have to wait it out.

Re: K-Drama: 아내의 유혹 (Lure of Wife/Temptation of Wife)


Hi star1 emoticon

I could do that because there were so many twists and turns, that in the end it didn't matter, because we always wound up in the same place.

The idiotic ex husband back and forth between loving/hating Ae Rie/Eun Jae. Ae Rie and Eun Jae each trying to get the better of the other. Sometimes Ae Rie won, sometimes Eun Jae won. The ignorant in laws, both sets, fighting and moving around like Nomads.

Following every episode, for me, would have always left me in the same place, wondering why I wasted time watching such drivel. Having to listen to Ae Rie, who obviously, doesn't have an "inside voice", scream and scream and scream some more. Just couldn't do it. Plus, for you to wonder how they got there, you'd have to give a rat's @$$ about these people and I didn't.

Sorry, star1, that's all I got out of this drama. I may be in the minority, but I'm good with that.

Enjoy.

Later emoticon

Re: K-Drama: 아내의 유혹 (Lure of Wife/Temptation of Wife)


smoochie storylines are different, people have various likes/dislikes and while many dramas have common threads, I particularly like this one because it is fun to watch the plays 'cuz I like this cast.

However . . . last night's episode, though wedding kidnap was predictable, I think the writer of this drama must have been holed up in room with computer during some fierce storm for weeks, or maybe had flu and was on meds, creating scenario, reversing scenario, retracking, backtracking, all just to see how many different ways same story could be drafted.

I hate mazes and last night has us heading into the same old corn maze with a different character now at the helm, out to get EJ while the leeches won't let go! Just how much can one person take? Help, get me out of here, I'm getting dizzy!! Even EJ fainted from the bewilderment. Image

Merrago? ". . . and give the money to Ae-ri . . ."
           " . . . let's work together . . .," says Ae-ri to So-Hee
           " . . . I'm going to take away everything EJ has and leave her with nothing . . . " (this time So-Hee instead of Ae-ri talking
           ". . . unless you have something on her, you're no competition for her . . . " Ae-ri to So-Hee

           ". . . I'm going to protect her . . . " Gun-Wu says, but did nothing, juxtaposed to his earlier knight in shining armor behavior.
          
etc., etc.

Going around for the third time - - help - - stop this merry-go-round -- enough already, let's have the ending!!!

funniest line of the night . . . "She's worse than Ae-ri," said EJ's father. Got that right. So-Hee is lethal, she doesn't need to team up with Ae-ri.

See what I mean? I couldn't do it. The writers are having a good laugh and everybody's hooked. So crazy! The only one in this drama who's normal is Star/Haneul. She's the only one with a firm grasp on reality. The rest are just insane, including Eun Jae.

K-Drama: 아내의 유혹 (Lure of Wife/Temptation of Wife)


I stopped watching this show. It has become so ridiculous with the real So-Hee coming back and Ae-ri getting away with every evil thing she does.
