In my marathon viewing of Korean BL series, one common criticism I have found myself having is how much the length of time and the format of some of the productions holds back potentially great results. Happy Merry Ending (해피메리엔딩) is another example of that. A promising start gives way to underdeveloped characters and plot in a pace that is so fast, you won’t even realize you’ve reached the end. All while introducing legitimately interesting ideas, but never getting the chance to explore them with care and depth. A charming cast is unfortunately not enough to carry its shortcomings. Even if in the end, it is another easy, if slightly unsatisfying watch.
