Couples Who Have More Chemistry Than the Main Couple

I've been planning on writing this ever since I finished Bridal Mask, so it's pretty overdue, but here goes:

There are so many cases when the main couple just doesn't have the chemistry we'd like.  Or even if they have decent chemistry they get upstaged by the side couple, or a couple that is completely non-existent in terms of that particular drama (but those actors better start dating in real life).  Secondary romances get us through many a melodrama, and quite often upstage the main romance all together.


I know my OTP is often not the main couple, even if I like them too.  So here are some real OTPs, or at least some couples with more chemistry than the main couple.

Best and Worst Couples of 2014

Let's have a little throwback in remembrance of 2014 dramas, specifically the couples of 2014.  Why not celebrate our favorite OTPs, I'm going to miss them.


But we can't leave out the worst couples as well, those ones that were just so lame or squirrely that we could barely watch (or couldn't watch) the shows they were in.  So here are my votes for the best and worse, and what I love (or hate) about them.

Bromances Continued: 6 More Recent Drama Enhancing Men Relationships

If you're anything like me, you can't get enough of bromances, so here is a list of more bromances that have warmed my little heart and caused me delight recently.  Some of these are just recent for me (as I am currently watching them) but some are current dramas that just keep getting better as the bros keep loving (whether they want to or not) each other.

Night Watchman of Epic Cliffhangers

I was excited to watch Night Watchman's Journal because Jung Il Woo and fantasy sageuk, but a little less excited cause Yunho... I have a completely irrational dislike for Yunho.  I'm sure deep down there is a reason, but I don't know what it is.  But there you have it.  Also... he's not the best actor, although I'm sure he's getting better since he keeps doing it.

However, the first couple episodes can only be described as epic.  Seriously, in one episode alone you have like evil ghosts, assassination attempts, giant skeleton warriors, a serpent dragon thing and then this:

109. Night Watchman's Journal 야경꾼일지 (2014) Korean

Jung Il Woo, Go Sung Hee, Yunho, Seo Ye Ji, Kim Sung Oh

Drama Rating: 4/10     Neck Score: A

What the heck.  That is about all I can say about this show.  What the heck!  What happened?  The first two episodes were so promising and got us hooked, and then it steadily got worse and worse.  Lamer and lamer, dumber and dumber.  It started so epic, but by the end was so lame and boring that we couldn't even bother to make fun of it anymore.  That was sad.  Making fun of it was the only think that got us through it.  My little brother is super funny, especially when imitating the prime minister, so after he went completely crazy it was really boring.  And the last episode was so preachy.  Not as bad as Fall in Love With Me, but it was all idealistic in the punishment of the bad guys, all like "this is what you get for being so obsessed and greedy."  Balony.  Bologna. What a load of crap.  I actually wrote a bunch about the wonderful things we did when we were enjoying making fun of it.  It was so sad when it got so lame that it wasn't even fun to do that any more.  It was just boring, and we suffered through to the end.  So, no one could act... at least most of the leads couldn't, besides Jung Il Woo and Kim Sung Oh.  Yunho and that girl were just awful.  I liked all the bad guys way better than the good guys, so it was lame and boring when they lost.  Sadam (aka David Bowie's) death scene was the lames load of crap ever.  Such a disappointment.  Boo hiss hiss.
