The couple end up in a contract marriage to satisfy his grandfather's pressure to continue the family line. And as she spends time with him, she learns that this present day version of her husband is not the same man that she married in the past. But he is someone she could grow to love. Now she will need to make a choice whether to try to get back to her original life or stay in present day Seoul and build a new life .
Should I Watch
"The Story of Park's Marriage Contract" is a light time -travel romance. This drama started much stronger than it ended. While the cast was good and the romantic chemistry was swoon-worthy, there are lots of plot holes and inconsistencies in the time travel story. At times the story really didn't make much sense. And I never felt like we got a solid connection between the past characters and their present day counterparts. I did enjoy the romance and concept of this drama, and it's a pleasant enough watch, but I wish the execution were stronger. I give "The Story of Park's Marriage Contract" a 7 out of 10 ramen.
