Summary

Episode 10 is going through the motions, feeding the audience piece by piece how two groups of women had their lives changed by disloyal men. There appears to be no happy outcome at all in this tantalising series.

This recap of Netflix K-drama series Love (ft. Marriage and Divorce) episode 10 contains significant spoilers.


The second half of this series will likely be flashbacks after the last episode, showing how the characters got to where they are. It’s interesting, and so far, it only supports that idea that the men are completely at fault — apart from Dong-mi, of course.

To open up Episode 9, after a drunken night, Boo Hye-rung cannot stop pestering Seo Ban, jumping out of Sa-hyeon’s car to speak to him. She calls him a man with a kind heart while Sa-hyeon ushers her back into the car. Meanwhile, with Yu-sin home, Sa Pi-young wants quality time with her husband, who has sex on the brain. But interestingly, he lies about who he was sat next to on the plane as he gets a message from A Mi — he calls the message spam. This is already an emotional affair.

Dong-mi gets annoyed at her snoring husband

In the middle of the night, Dong-mi cannot sleep due to her husbands snoring, and she’s getting increasingly irritable. She pours herself a whiskey and looks at photos of Yu-sin — he’s a sought after man. The next day, after meeting Yu-sin, Dong-mi tells Sa Pi-young that her husband was next to a good looking lady on the plane. She’s purposefully stirring it for her own motives.

Sa-hyeon gets used to the gym life

Episode 9 shows how Sa-hyeon kept trying to talk to Song Won, and surprisingly, it isn’t an impressive attempt, unlike Yu-sin. Sa-hyeon is not as confident as the series made out at the start.

Sa-hyeon heads to the gym and joins Song Won in the elevator. He tries making small talk. While working out, he cannot stop looking at Song Won’s physique. After exercise, Sa-hyeon talks to Song Won again, but it’s once again a conversation that doesn’t last long. Sa-hyeon is very interested in her post-workout meal and cheekily asks Boo Hye-rung to replicate it for him. Sa Pi-young rings Yu-sin and asks where his jacket is from his trip. He lies to her yet again and tells her he lent it to the friend he met on the plane — he’s made out this friend is a man.

Park Hae-ryun meets Nam Ga-bin

Love (ft. Marriage and Divorce) episode 10 reveals how Park Hae-ryun met Ga-bin, and again, it’s surprisingly non-spectacular — it goes to show how quickly life can change. While at work, Park Hae-ryun has a meeting with Nam Ga-bin and he’s mesmerised by her — of course, her popularity is a factor, but he seems surprised at her aura. He tells her she looks younger in person and talks about musicals — he wants to talk about her career. The pair have an impromptu lunch together; Park Hae-ryun decides to share his food. They talk about Park Hae-ryun’s next teaching seminar before she leaves.

Another meeting with A Mi

Episode 9 shows how Yu-sin cannot help himself — he’s a manipulator and a liar.

Yu-sin remembers a meal he had with A Mi. A Mi tells him she’s in Korea visiting so she can talk to an agency about modelling or acting. She is seeking a change. Yu-sin smiles at the memory, and then A Mi rings him and offers to give his jacket back. Yu-sin rings his wife and lies about what he is doing.

He meets A Mi, and she tells him she has signed a contract in the entertainment industry. Yu-sin tells her she can keep his jacket, and then they have dinner together. The topic of grandparents come up and how they miss them. They appear to be getting emotional with each other. After a bottle of red wine, A Mi wants another round of drinks. She’s giving all the signals, and Yu-sin is complying.

The mother-in-law cooks

After bickering with her husband, Ye-jeong spends time with her daughter-in-law Boo Hye-rung. Pan Mun-ho keeps ringing her, urging for her to go home. Boo Hye-rung eats very little of Ye-jeong’s food and tries to control what Sa-hyeon eats; she’s still worried about his weight. Ye-jeong insists that her son eats what he wants. Meanwhile, at home, Pan Mun-ho is eating dinner on his own — he misses his wife feeding him.

The ending

A Mi tells Yu-sin of a dream she had of riding a horse and that he was riding with her. She then brings up that she wants to get drunk; she wants them to be friends and less formal and drop the honorifics. A Mi asks about Yu-sin’s wife; he calls her a fine woman in every respect. At this point, we have to ask — if she’s such a fine woman, why is he spending the night with another one?

Sa Pi-young asks Ji-a what she would do if her future husband cheats on her. Ji-a tells her that he wouldn’t let him get away with it. Meanwhile, Yu-sin and A Mi are drunk at the back of a taxi, asleep.

Love (ft. Marriage and Divorce) episode 10 is going through the motions, feeding the audience piece by piece how two groups of women had their lives changed by disloyal men. There appears to be no happy outcome at all in this tantalising series.

Additional points

  • Dong-mi asks Ga-rim if he would consider wearing a wig as people keep believing they are having an affair.
