I can't find on me to hate Byeong-In because if you think about his point of view that So-yong tried to killed herself because of how unhappy Cheoljong and the palace life made her and how their family made her so miserable at the point to drive her to depression. He had every single reason to hate all of them, and I always felt that it was very ambiguous the way they wrote So-yong feelings towards him. She kisses him back for some seconds till she snaps. She tells him that in her dreams, sometimes her husband looks like him. She trusts him the most and he was the only one who notice that So-bong wasn't So-yong and STILL protected her anyway. His love towards her mixed with how used and mistreated he was by their family although he was a political genius makes all his actions very understanding. They don't know you like I know, youngest minister of War.

joseon is the country that killed my parents. it's the one I escaped from. that's why I wanted to crush it, leave it, and go back to my homeland, which is america. but then I met a woman. she often made me waver. I knew you'd give me that look if I told you my story. I knew, but it still hurts.
“You really didn’t hear a single one of my alarms going off? You’re late anyway, so come back to bed. Let’s sleep some more, hmm? You turned off the alram, didn’t you? No. Where are the black socks? In the laundry basket. I told you not to wear mine. Or at least wash them. Where’s my jacket? Look carefully, it must be somewhere. Oh, it might be at my place. Why is nothing where it’s supposed to be? Damnit.”
There’s an argument to be made about how Perfect Marriage Revenge had a perfect execution because it was a 12 episodes long drama and didn’t waste time for unnecessary conflicts. Everything took its right time and was resolved in a cohesive way with the characters development.
Both leads were compelling and had amazing chemistry, but the secondary characters were equally interesting to watch. All the performances outstanding and you can tell the actors are enjoying themselves in their respective roles.
On a story about a woman looking for revenge against her own family, this kdrama had a perfect balance between makjang and romcom. Making it an easy and fun watch. I highly recommend it!
