Kapanlagi.com - In Korean dramas, marriage is often chosen as a shortcut to solve problems. However, instead of solving the problems, a contract marriage becomes the trigger for various conflicts that start the story of a drama. It is not uncommon for a contract marriage that is made for rational reasons to end up becoming true love.

Various funny, romantic, sad, or vice versa, heartbreaking stories accompany the journey of couples who go through a contract marriage, as in the following dramas.

1. FULL HOUSE

Senior Korean drama fans must remember the drama Full House that aired in 2004. This adorable drama starred Song Hye Kyo and Rain. Unlike their roles in recent years, Song Hye Kyo played a cheerful character here and her behavior was funny.

Full House tells the story of Han Ji-eun, played by Song Hye Kyo, a rising scriptwriter who lives in a house she calls "Full House". The house was built by her late father. One day, Ji-eun is tricked into selling her house by her friend.

Then Ji-eun finds out that her house has been bought by Lee Young-jae (Rain), a famous actor whom she met while on vacation. The situation eventually leads them to sign a six-month marriage contract. Although Ji-eun and Young-jae never get along and have different personalities, they agree to live together.

Starting from trying to get her house back, Ji-eun ends up falling in love with Young-jae. It's not one-sided, as Young-jae, who initially only intended to save his image as a celebrity, eventually falls for Ji-eun.

2. MARRIAGE CONTRACT

Drama that aired in 2016 starring Lee Seo Jin as Han Ji-hoon and Uee as Kang Hye-soo. Hye-soo is portrayed as a single mother struggling to raise her daughter while paying off her late husband's debt.

Meanwhile, Han Ji-hoon is the son of a conglomerate family looking for a donor for his mother who needs a liver transplant. When Hye-soo finds out that she has an inoperable brain tumor, a contract marriage takes place as the title suggests.

Hye-soo agrees to marry Ji-hoon and become a donor for his mother. She is willing to do it for the money that will be enough to support her daughter until adulthood.

As expected, they eventually fall in love. This tearful drama ends sweetly by allowing Hye-soo to live until the end of the drama.

3. BECAUSE THIS IS MY FIRST LIFE

Jung So Min plays Yonn Ji-ho, a writer who is having difficulty finding a place to live, meets Lee Min-ki who plays Nam Se-hee, who rents a room to help her pay the expensive mortgage. To fulfill their respective goals, they eventually decide to enter into a contract marriage.

To convince their families, they also do a wedding photoshoot and visit each other's families during major holidays. Slowly, special feelings grow between them.

4. LOVE IN CONTRACT

Tells the story of Choi Sang-eun (played by Park Min Young) who works as a contract wife. The temporary marriage she offers aims to help her clients fulfill their parents' expectations, provide comfort for their children, and improve their work.

Among her many clients, there are two special clients. They are Jung Ji-ho (played by Go Kyung Pyo), a quiet and mysterious family court judge. He has been in a contract for 5 years. The other is Kim Jae-yong, a famous actor who turns out to have a connection to Sang-eun's past. When she decides to end the contract and quit her profession, Sang-eun finds herself trapped in a love triangle with both of her clients.

5. THE STORY OF PARK'S MARRIAGE CONTRACT

In the Joseon era, Park Yeon-woo lost her husband. Kang Tae-ha, her husband, died on their wedding night. In a devastated state, Yeon-woo was kidnapped and thrown into a well. Miraculously, she did not die. When she opened her eyes, she saw that the person who saved her was her husband. Yeon-woo was stranded in present-day Seoul.

The name and face of Kang Tae Ha are the same in both the Joseon era and the present. Even Tae-ha's stepmother is the same as the one who lived in the past. Kang Tae-ha is the heir to a conglomerate company. Interestingly, Tae-ha also has a heart disease in the present, so he is reluctant to get married. He eventually enters into a contract marriage to persuade his grandfather to undergo surgery. Moreover, his sick grandfather said he wants to see his wedding while he is still alive. To fulfill his grandfather's wish, Kang Tae-ha asks Park Yeon-woo to marry him in a contract marriage. Watch this exciting drama on Viu.
