cast: choi tae joon, choi soo young, hwang chan sung
genre: romantic comedy
hoo joon (choi tae joon) is a rising idol star. from the outside, he looks cool but inside he was troubled because he managed to make his debut and became popular while leaving his old friends behind. while lee geun young (choi soo young) is just a contract worker as a reporter. she was told to attend a party that hoo joon attended as well. but later she saw hoo joon talking with oh in young (han ji an), his former trainee friends that was not supposed to be seen together with hoo joon. hoo joon was talking harshly to in young and geun young thought he was abusing in young. hoo joon caught her looking at him, so he chased and confronted her. didn't want to listen to her defense, hoo joon broke geun young's camera. that got geun young angry and threw her shoes at hoo joon and made herself at front page. hoo joon demanded her to be fired from her news company in turn for keeping the photoshoot contract between hoo joon's agency and the news company. angry for being fired because of hoo joon's situation, geun young decided to become hoo joon's anti fan and wanted to let the world know that hoo joon was not the good guy that everybody thought.
however, geun young didn't get far with her revenge plan. but a producer and a screen writer became interested in her story and wanted to shoot a "reality show" with hoo joon and geun young as the main casts. they wanted to portray their life as "husband and wife" and thus the title "i married my anti fan". the idea of the reality show was to put hoo joon and geun young in the same house, acting like they were living together so both could know each other better. however, at the same time, geun young was kicked out of her old apartment and got nowhere to stay. she decided to squat at the penthouse where they were filming the reality show as she remembered hoo joon's manager told everyone that it was empty. unfortunately, hoo joon found out about it when he was going to the penthouse to visit the room on the second floor that he has been keeping from everyone else. he let geun young to stay until she could find her own place.
long story short, their relationship started to get closer thanks to the reality show and geun young staying at the penthouse. she even got to know better about hoo joon's past. how his current CEO faked hoo joon's life and betrayed JJ and in young. JJ tried to protect in young but at the same time hurt in young in process. that led in young devastated as she wanted to get the fame hoo joon's been getting. as we can predicted, hoo joon started to fall for geun young and vice versa. but problem started to arise after that. after the reality show ended, geun young's laptop, which contained her previous angry notes about hoo joon, fell into the hand of her current cunning CEO and made news, telling everyone that hoo joon was a fake. hoo joon's CEO tried to put the blame on geun young and stopped her from meeting hoo joon while hoo joon believed geun young was innocent. at the end, we saw hoo joon severed his contract with his previous CEO, but still paid his debt because he felt grateful that he got the fame thanks to his CEO. JJ and in young realized that hoo joon was suffered as well and both decided to slow down before deciding whether they would come back to the entertainment world or not. while geun young tried to fix the situation while hoo joon was away, maybe back to his mother in alaska. as we can predicted, at the end hoo joon came back for geun young and he proposed to her romantically.
what i like:
- light and heartwarming story perfect for buffer after getting my brains boiled because of mouse and beyond evil.
- the chemistry between choi tae joon and choi soo young is really good here. though we're not supposed to ship them as both of them has girlfriend/boyfriend already. but they do look cute together here.
what i don't like:
- there's no explanation about JJ and in young. i do get that JJ wanted to protect in young and somehow it could hurt in young but why he was so against in young getting famous?
- what's the purpose of hoo joon getting away for awhile? and then when he came back, he's still as famous as before. like people completely forgot about his scandal. and there's no clear explanation about geun young's effort to clear hoo joon's name. is it working? or isn't it?
- geun young has too many clothes and too pretty clothes for someone who's squatting at someone else's place.
rating: 7/10
binge worthy: just so-so
recommended for: someone who likes light romantic comedy story, fans of choi tae joon and wanted to see him after his military finished.
