A contract marriage built on revenge sits at the center of Perfect Marriage Revenge, a 2023 South Korean drama from director Oh Sang-won starring Jung Yoo-min and Sung Hoon.

What is Perfect Marriage Revenge about?

Han Yi-joo enters a marriage of convenience for one reason: to get even with the husband and family who wronged her. Seo Do-gook, the man she strikes the arrangement with, has his own reasons for stalling before he brings her home as his wife, and that delay opens the door to complications neither of them planned for. The series builds its sixteen-episode run around the tension between calculated deception and feelings that refuse to stay contained, with Jin Ji-hee, Kang Shin-hyo, Oh Seung-yun, Lee Min-young, Jeon No-min, and Kim Eung-soo rounding out the households caught in the fallout. Each roughly seventy-minute episode keeps the focus on how far a marriage of convenience can be pushed before the people inside it stop pretending.

About the cast

Context & significance

Perfect Marriage Revenge belongs to the revenge-melodrama strand of Korean television, where a wronged protagonist works through an elaborate scheme rather than a direct confrontation. The series holds a strong 7.9 rating and premiered in 2023, part of the steady flow of Korean drama that has become a fixture for streaming audiences well beyond South Korea, including among Persian-speaking viewers drawn to the genre's mix of romance, family conflict, and slow-burn payoff.
