A secret marriage service is uncovered when a trunk washes up on the shore, revealing the strange marriage between a couple in the thick of it all. (Synopsis)
I had read the book The Trunk is based on back in August, so I knew generally what to expect as I went into this drama. I thought the casting was good, and all the key players gave good performances. The sexual content was fairly explicit compared to most other K-dramas, but this eased off after the first couple of episodes. The pacing of the show was generally well handled and I think the 8-episode length was just right for telling the story. The cinematography was good, as was the editing. It's not a series I loved so much I'd want to see it again and again, and that's the only reason it doesn't get full marks from me. However, I am giving it a solid 4.5 stars and recommend it to fans of psychological dramas.
