"Off-Shoulder at Work, Luxurious Fashion Despite Poverty"... Drama's Female Lead Costume Fails to Reflect Reality

 

Recently, there has been a strong reaction to the costumes worn by actress Park Min-young in the popular drama 'Marry My Husband'.

In the 3rd episode aired on the 8th, Park Min-young appeared wearing a halter-neck white long dress reminiscent of an awards ceremony at an alumni gathering held at a barbecue restaurant. Moreover, in the 6th episode broadcast on the 16th, she surprised viewers by wearing an off-shoulder blouse, boldly revealing one shoulder, while going to work at the company.

Although it seems to be an attempt to portray a more beautifully transformed appearance compared to before, there are opinions that it is somewhat excessive. Netizens express dissatisfaction, stating that it is overly inappropriate considering the drama's context.

When a fusion of hanbok and high heels appeared in a drama set in the Joseon era, viewers pointed out that it seemed out of place. The production team at the time responded, "Please consider it as a fusion historical drama with its own setting," and stated, "We expressed fashion in a modern way. We hope viewers understand the characteristics of the drama, as it did not distort history."

In 2011, the drama "A Thousand Days' Promise" also faced controversy over luxury brand sponsored costumes. At the time, Soo Ae (played by Lee Seo-yeon) received criticism for wearing luxury clothes that seemed inappropriate for the dramatic situation.

Amid the controversy, the production team of "A Thousand Days' Promise" stated, "Please view the drama as a drama. We don't believe that Soo Ae's appearance in luxury clothing affects the immersion of the drama," and explained, "She has paid off her debts and is a team leader at a publishing company, so it's reasonable for her to have at least one luxury item."

-Wearing a halter neck to a barbecue restaurant, was there a specific reason for that, or did she just wear it for no reason? Wow.

-That off-shoulder appearance was really surprising as soon as it came out, haha.

-I remember what Kim Soo-hyun, the writer, said at that time. "A working woman can have at least one luxury item. Apart from that, most of Su Ae's clothing, except for one luxury bag, was from domestic brands priced around 200,000 to 300,000 won."

-Wearing a dress for an awards ceremony at a barbecue restaurant; was that scene appropriate for the plot?

-Wearing off-shoulder at the company...?ㄷㄷㄷ

-The situation in the drama is somewhat understandable, but even considering that, the reaction to wearing an awards ceremony dress at a barbecue restaurant is just hilariousㅋㅋㅋㅋ If you lived a relatively ordinary life in your past life and dressed somewhat normally, people would have praised you even if you were just decently dressedㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-It looks like she wore it to make an impression. Of course, even thinking about that, wearing an awards ceremony dress at a barbecue restaurant is a unique fashion choiceㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Off-shoulderㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ If you don't know office life, you wouldn't understandㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-The clothes aren't even pretty.

-I was surprised as soon as I saw the first imageㅋㅋㅋㅋ. Who goes to work dressed like that?
