Dramas you thought you would hate but ended up loving?

King of High School. I don't mind noona romance, but this one is particularly troubling because the guy was a minor. I decided to check it out months after it's finished airing because at that time I wanted something silly and stress-free to watch, and ended up loving it more than I thought I would.

Beethoven Virus - I only watched it because I felt like I should give k-drama another try (didn't really love the first two I watched) and it was recommended to me. I was completely in love with this drama before the first episode was over and it remains in my Top 5! <3

Roosevelt Game - I watched it because friends were watching it, and I didn't think I would like it because it was a business/sport drama. I LOVED it, it was amazing. (Edit: this one is Japanese, though... I didn't realize this is the k-drama forum *lol*)

Secret and I Remember You.

Healer : i put it " on-hold" at first after watching two or three episode , but later i give it a try , and it ended up as one of my fav dramas of all the time ♥

Empress Ki : the length , i saw this drama in recs and i found it a high-rating drama , but i found it too long to watch and it's historical and i was not into historical dramas, but man !!! after i give it a chance because of Ha Ji Won and Ji Chang Wook , how can this drama be so perfect ?!! i still don't know :D

You Who Came from the Stars : i don't remember the reason that made me afraid to watch this drama or why i thought it will be boring !, this one is great and so romantic !

Falling for Innocence : and that's something i can't forgive myself for , how could i think this drama will be boring ?!!!!!! , it became one of my fav and i will never forget this one, it's funny and cute ♥

Full House (Thai Version) : i was worried about it since it's a thai drama , but i loved it so much ♥

Marriage, Not Dating : i thought it will be boring , but i was wrong it's funny, crazy and cute

and Finally, Last Cinderella : it's a Japanese drama , but it was my first drama ever , and which made me fall in love with drama land, i was worried about watching a Jap drama, i thought it's weird, but i was totally wrong ! , this drama is BEAUTIFUL, cute , romantic , and have one of most handsome men in Asia Miura Haruma ♥♥♥♥

Bridal Mask :D It's my most favorite drama, but at first I dismissed it, since I hadn't watched anything historical before. But after I gave it a try, I absolutely fell in love even though I didn't liked the female lead. The bromance was so good.
School 2013. I thought it would be a boring school drama, since the plot description didn't appeal to me. Then I tried a KBS World App and a episode of School 2013 was showing. The scene showed made me really curious about the drama, since it seemed so much more interesting than what the plot stated. Become also one of my favorite dramas :D
Shut Up Flower Boy Band. The plot seemed really cool, but the first scene confused me so much with all the shaking and so on that I first thought I would drop it. But after watching it again and completing the first episode, I noticed how much I already liked it. And also as the dramas above: one of my favorite dramas.
Looking at the dramas I gave a high ranking, there are a few more, that I thought, I wouldn't like, but ended up loving: Angry Mom (set up seemed so silly and like a comedy), Signal
Aand honorable mention to Moorim School, which was in no way a great drama, but it peaked my interest more than I thought, although Hongbin's acting was horrible :D

queen In Hyun's man, going into this drama I was quite wary, because I have never really enjoyed time travel. But unexpectedly I ended up enjoying this show.

The greatest Love. omg  are the 1st two episodes awful, you just have to grit your teeth and bare it. 

My Beautiful Bride, so far its a 10/10
