UPDATE: Marry My Husband Vs Twinkling Watermelon
UPDATE: Going for Marry my husband because it sounds more adult with a bit more stress.
i see a fair amount of comments going both ways.
The description sounds better for us. People are using an actress I like a lot to sell the plot.
While Marry My husband people are saying i’ll like the actual story more and i find that to be the better motivation
I dont have the formula because i do enjoy slice of life or feel good too. I am currently getting that from the animes.
So this feels like a good fit for us.
How you feel about Marry My Husband Vs Twinkling Watermelon.
I prefer Marry My Husband imagery.
Twinkling looks a bit like Slice Of Life with Homies.
I dont see any actresses?

Marry my husband
I’m a bit disappointed in the decision to be honest. Twinkling Watermelon has so much heart and it’s nice to get a mix of dark and light kdramas on here that you react to. 😩
twinkling watermelon is better, and has a different plot. marry my husband follows the same stuff ive seen before. twinkling watermelon also has better ratings, but whatever floats your boat (the cliche/more predictable story might be a bit more of a fit for you. In my opinion its best to watch the shows at the same time so you get what the ohter show is missing)
Thank you
Twinkling watermelon has more depth in my opinion
I respect that. Thank you
I’m happy with this choice. I’ve been watching Marry My Husband on my own and it’s really great. I can’t wait to see the lee’s reaction to this drama. I definitely I agree that from what Lee has mentioned in the past about really enjoying dramas with tension and drama that Marry My Husband is a better fit for them .
Marry of husband is a good show of 2024 and twinkling watermelon is the top drama/highest rated drama of 2023. Also Twinkling watermelon is so many twists and turns and so much to discuss. TW will also do well on youtube in comparison for sure.
I honestly think that "gyeongseong creature" is the better choice, both of those shows are of really good quality but they both don't match as well with you guys than "gyeongseong creature" would. In term of hype, the one with the most hype is "marry my husband" as it's still airing, "twinkling watermelon" has a solid fanbase so it will gather hype and "gyeongseong creature" also has a good fanbase and only renctly finished so it's still fresh. Also the show will have a second season so it will catch a second wave of hype. This shows has both the male lead of" Itaewon Class" and the female lead of "My Name" , both heavy hitters.
While neither is my personal favorite,I have to say Twinkling 🍉 makes more sense,as a writer I feel like Marry My Husband just tacked EVERYTHING on at once and most of it isn`t really good. I also think all y`all would probably vibe more with Twinkling Watermelon,despite how teen oriented it might seem.
marry my husband first and then twinkling watermelon
twinkling watermelon
actors doesn't matter to me. all I want is good story. Twinkling watermelon got unpredictable and fresh storyline. It has lots of twists and turns. S-tier plot alone makes it top drama of 2023.
But homegirl from Business Proposal is the star of Twinkling Watermelon... The best friend homegirl
Thats awesome for her. Glad she’s doing well
I feel like Marry My Husband suits your taste more.
I watched both and you will for sure love marry my husband it's so interesting and messy! Twinkling watermelon is good as well it's not as messy but you will be emotionally invested and cry! both are good choices!! but go for marry my husband first!
I'd go for Twinkling Watermelon. There is a reason it's considered one of the best K-Drama of 2023. I personally think Twinkling watermelon also has a better characters (Character Arcs, Personalities) than MMH and not to mention the amazing background score.
I would choose Twinkling Watermelon
Doubts you've for Twinkling Watermelon: 1. Is it one of another romcom releasing every year -NO, not a regular romance show 2. Is it BL - NO, it may seem from posters but main leads aren't romantically involved AT ALL 3. Should we watch a show just because they have familiar actors in it? - NO we should not just bcoz of that, RATHER it has a S-TIER storyboard which needs no external excuse for it to be watched 4. Is it better than MMH- both are good but MMH is just a typical romcom that is good, but TWINKLING WATERMELON is masterpiece of 2023. Not sure if MMH could be considered be a masterpiece of 2024.
Appreciate your commentary. I still consider twinkling as both kdramas are ending soon
Twinkling Watermelon is the only kdrama on mydramalist(MLD) that has 9.2/10 ratings followed by move to heaven, moving and weak hero class 1 with 9.1/10. It is highest rated on both imDb (9/10) and VIKI (9.8/10)
For Twinkling Watermelon whatever reasons you're hesitating it's fair, as people don't what to spoil its plot to you as it will come in a shocker in first 2 eps, they can just mildly explain the plot and tell you that it is a S-TIER show on every platform ✌️ 😉
Twinkling watermelon is definitely better in any sense, but do whatever you're pulled in
Twinkling watermelon all the way
Please react on My demon and geyongsong creature also eagerly waiting for your reaction on these shows as well 👍🏻🤩🙏🏻
Marry my husband 🤩🤩🤩
I think the plot of Twinkling Watermelon is better it's just something new but since you like messy I'm sure you would want to react to marry my husband though I find it cliche.
MARRY MY HUSBAND
Twinkling watermelon
Show more love for anime too?im ok with kdramas tho
Of course. I post more anime than any other genre and i only post 5 kdramas a week
As a person who watched (watching) both of them I say Twinkling watermelon. Marry my husband has a lot of cliche while TW is unpredictable and fresh
One of Twinkling Watermelon actress is Seol Inah. The girl whose friend with the FL in BUSINESS PROPOSAL 😁
The two dramas have a similar plot point (not spoiling) but have very different directions they took it in, in my opinion. i haven't watched marry my husband yet but the plot seems pretty cool and I'm all for revenge plots no matter how cliche it is lol, it would be nice watching it with y'all. i alr watched twinkling watermelon and it really is one of the best feel-good dramas out there. I think people are using the actors/actresses to get you into the drama because they really did a good job and have good chemistry with one another, but I think the plot of that drama should be also given credit because it was superb. But if that's not the vibes y'all are looking for rn, i guess it could wait lol
I appreciate your explanation. When people say it has the actess i like…and nothing else. Lol. That sounds bad to me. “Yall dont got anything else? My fav actors got a lot of shows i have not seen yet”
marry my husband
I haven't watched Twinkling Watermelon but I'm currently watching Marry My Husband! I'm enjoying it so far, it's an interesting premise and it's got some good Drama with a capital D. I love the main actress too. Everyone seems to love TW but the clips I've seen just haven't pulled me in.
I feel the same way, it has a lot of hype, it even has significant views on YouTube, but when I look at pictures I don’t see imagery that attracts me. I am very much judging a book by its cover
I hope you will eventually react to twinkling watermelon it's good.
Tbh you could do marry my husband first and then do twinkling watermelon. Because whatever dark kdrama you have going along side it, it will be a breath of fresh air. Still a bit stressful but a lot more good times.
Also marry my husband is going off the og book not the webtoon I heard that the book was even more dramatic than the webtoon. I do think you'd really like both and both have their cliches but I enjoyed twinkling watermelon after I gave in after finals week and watched it. It's now one of my faves. I'm currently really enjoying marry my husband and even got my mom to watch it, now she's ahead of me 😂😂.
Ha-ris bff is in twinkling watermelon
Marry my husband has the drama and I love the actress !!
Idk but marry my husband is too cliche ksksks
Twinkling watermelon is a better story but I would still say marry my husband because I enjoyed it more …. Though it’s a cliche … I always enjoy get backs … which is being done brilliantly here … plus I love the male leads character in this … he is such a gentleman
TWINKLING WATERMELON
I’m here for it! I love the female actress. I know nothing about this drama or even read the summary, so I’m going into this blindly with yall. Read for it!
Dam was excited for twinkling watermelon
Uhhmm , marry my husband is too much cliche drama for me , the plot is obvious maybe because I have watched too much drama
Marry My Husband
Let's Get Let's Go!!!!! We will need an Adorkable applause meter because I have a feeling she will be dropping some of her GEMS for this one.
Marry my husband is too good. You guys will definitely enjoy, the plot is amazing
Twinkling Watermelon resonated with me the most, but if you think you'd enjoy Marry My Husband more, go with that! :)
Marry my husband would be most your style. Very satisfying. I read.the webtoon but i haven't watched the drama. It would be good to watch ot together with you guys.
Marry My Husband is nice, a good watch. I also read the Webtoon and it was really good.
TWINKLING WATERMELON
Marry my husband was so satisfying to read and watching it made me still love it!
Marry My Husband
Marry My Husband
Marry My Husband!!
I’m watching marry my husband and so far it’s so good.
Marry My Husband
i was hoping you guys would revisit the long list of suggestions and stop asking for new ones cause the list keeps growing and things are getting lost or left behind 😞 😓
Ikr I feel like there are other options that are better than these two imo but it is what it is
I have questions…what is it replacing? Did u already do the yt research? I have a favorite but They are both good. And very very different from one another.
I think its going to replace Deaths Game since both of these are new dramas, they'll probably do an older drama for Crash landing on you
Marry My Husband easily
Why make it such a hard choice?🤣 I love both dramas for speedster reasons but idk. But it is giving that u guys (mostly Lee) gravitate more towards the “messy” dramas lol. BUT my votes Twinkling. Just because I like the comedic moments of the show and there’s a nice mix of different genres. And also I’m sure yk Marry My Husband hasn’t ended yet so I don’t wanna recommend it if the ending is bad.
marry my husband is great
I'd say if you want a nostalgic heartwarming story, to twinkling. from what i see, marry my husband is more mature
idk much about the other one since I'm not up on romances
Other one being Marry my husband?
twinkling watermelon has yall other fave actress from business proposal, the best friend of hari.
Yea. I know 🥰. But i still prefer which ever one you think we would like more. She is nice but she isn’t someone who carries like some of the other actors i get hyped for.
This choice is a crime ! I love them both ! I’d say it depends on what else you have on the schedule ! If you want lighthearted go TW if you want adulty go the other way b
Kim Sae keong in Twinkling watermelon is one of the female leads and she was the best friend in Bussiness Proposal.
I know. Haha. Still want the “better show”
Nah Marry my Husband hits harder. It's two different levels of content. TW is more family friendly while MMH is adult.
Marry my husband is so goooood!
Both
As someone who has seen both, I would love to see your reactions to either one. Twinkling Watermelon: I binged this is one sitting it was a really nice drama and a good break from the more action packed and "stressful" dramas. It also has the actor from weak hero and the actress that played the best friend in Business Proposal. I know you guys don't usually cry when watching dramas but this one is definitely a more family focused/emotional show. Marry My husband:I'm fully caught up on this and watch the episodes as soon as they come out I also read some of the webtoon that this was adapted from and I think they're doing a pretty good job sticking to it. It's focused on revenge and it does have some emotional moments but for the most part it just made me wanna punch some of the characters. I think it would be funny seeing you guys reaction to some of the things the people in this show do. So at the end of the day I'd love to see you react to both but I'm sure that's not a choice so I typed this long ass comment just to say I'm happy with anything you choose.💀
"Marry my husband" it's so good 👍
Twinkling watermelon
I prefer Marry my husband
Both? ☺️
Marry my husband is really good
Marry My Husband. I don’t think that all of the episodes have been released yet, though.
Haven't watched Marry My Husband, so can't compare. Twinkling Watermelon was a nice story. It's lightweight but not thin, but still a bit cliched. Sound design was interesting or cloying, depending.
Both look interesting and I haven't watched either but, I'm leaning towards Marry My Husband. After reading the synopsis, I'm feeling for a little toxicity and drama
Marry My Husband 👍🏻
Definitely Marry my Husband!!
imma help break it down but only a little bit with no spoilers marry my husband is a lighthearted revenge drama that makes the female lead go back to the past twinkling watermelon is a slice of life drama that makes the male lead go back to the past both deals with time travel, both are comedic too, one is abt revenge and maybe fate (it’s still an ongoing drama), one is abt how life is full up and downs but there will always be light in the darkness especially within family. i personally would like to see twinkling watermelon, the show is still popular and do well on youtube reactions! and i don’t mind marry my husband, i haven’t watched it on my own but i’ve been keeping up with it on tiktok to see the key points of each episode so ik what’s going on, the show also does well on youtube
LOL i just realized this
Marry My Husband!!!
I think you guys would like 'Marry My Husband' more, based on what you've said about other kdramas you've watched.
Twinkling Watermelon!!! It’s got family, friendship, and romance! Amazing acting and storyline and very easy to follow to me. It was my top drama of 2023
One of the actresses from Twinkling Watermelon is from Strong Woman Do Bong Soon and Business Proposal! Yall like her!
Marry My Husband bro read a little bit of it... it's nice I don't know the other one but I'll just pick the one I'm familiar with tho 😅
honestly, I was so excited for Marry my husband because I am a big fan of the webtoon, and it was great. But now, at episode 12, it gets too complicated, and the plot is getting a bit too cliche. I know they made an adaptation of the web novel, not the webtoon, but the webtoon was perfect. But that is just my opinion. Up until now, it was great, so let's see how it will evolve.
Marry My Husband. Both are great imo.
Marry my husbandddd
Twinkling watermelon
Marry My Husband
Marry My Husband is so so good! Definitely got a lot more than what I was expecting from the series so far
They are two different genres.. it’s hard to compare them! However, I would pick Twinkling Watermelon🍉🍉🍉🍉
I think y'all would enjoy both but Marry My Husband is revenge/comedy and Twinkling Watermelon is heartfelt/comedy. TW is a bit slice of life but they got at least 3 actresses y'all gone like. I personally think they're on the same level for different reasons.
Twinkling watermelon!!
You should definitely do both though
I think y'all would vibe with twinkling watermelon more though
i’m definitely going to watch more! the first episode had me a little nervous lol i was like pls no tears it’s episode 1
Both!!!!
marry my husband!
I like both! I have seen the drama for twinkling watermelon but I actually haven’t seen the drama for marry my husband but I did read the webtoon on that and heard it’s been pretty good so either or is fine for me! Twinkling watermelon does have actresses tho, I believe two main girls and one of them is one of the actresses you’ve seen in business proposal/strong girl but I say if you’re going for what interest you and what’s currently trending then it would be marry my husband. Although I would give twinkling watermelon a chance too in the future!
Marry My Husband
Marry my husband for sure
Marry my husband
I would love both but i personally prefer twinkling watermelon. It is a slice of life with homies but there’s also 2 main actresses that are the love interests and it’s a bit more of an emotional storytelling form drama with a time travel plot line which i think would be a good change up for you guys to check out~ 😁
don’t get me wrong!!! both are good i haven’t gotten through enough of watermelon to really say if one is “better”. i think based off of what you guys have already reacted to that you might also enjoy marry my husband. should you choose to react to it in the future. maybe others can comment more on watermelon . i’d recommend move to heaven if you’d need another drama at some point. that i finished and it was good the episodes are similar to attorney woo as far as how stories switch per episode. (don’t want to give away too much)
I haven't seen twinkling watermelon (it's on my watchlist), but I'm watching Marry My husband and so far is great.
Honestly I’m good with either choice. Twinkling watermelon has two main female actresses and you already know one of them. You guys will definitely like Marry my husband more.
Definitely marry my husband, every episode has you on the edge of your seat guarantee you will all enjoy ( not saying you won’t with twinkling watermelon it’s just marry my husband is much more thrilling for sure )
You know ima throw in for that marry my husband. You DEFINITELY will be all about the actresses. We all know your penchant for....villainous ladies.
Marry My Husband peak
Is slice of life with homies code for something else?
lmao
MMH is like a light Glory
haha
