~~Unpopular Opinions about Kdramas ~~

 Serena09:

I like persona

i did too, it's interesting, but not the type of content kdrama/kpop fans would watch, so i don't know why they'd choose iu out of all people to star in it

Yes I agree persona was unique and not for everyone but the diverse atmosphere in eps was great ..

About iu I think she is the only actress can play both an adult and a teenager perfectly

not as boring as You Who Came from the Stars, wasted potential since both the MLs had cool powers and with the setup of the world Goblin could've had a more exciting plot.. 

I watched You Who Came from the Stars donkey years ago, probably in 2013 when it was released or 2014. I don't remember what impact it initially had on me, but I do remember that it was not the same as Goblin. I certainly didn't take 6 mths to complete that drama and I remember it having some really nice, funny parts that I enjoyed. Goblin was just bland, repetitive nonsense for me. What's strange is that I like all the actors in Goblin ... I can even tolerate Kim Eun-Sook's writing (she wrote one of my all time favorite dramas ... Lovers), but something about Goblin just didn't hook me at all.

Actresses in Day or family dramas are way more better both in looks and acting than the 16 ish  episod dramas

I've not seen many of them but I'm liking Lee Yoo Ri and Park Ha Na while watching The Promise & Fatal Promise... Han Ji Hye is pretty too 

Hospital Playlist is so boring for me, I don't get the hype over it ( ͠° ͟ʖ ͡°) 

Slice of life dramas/anime is usually boring for me (depending on the plot) I don't remember being that bored watching Doctor John - the Pain or Death OST song was decent enough to keep me watching it, I guess. 

I wasn't a huge fan of Goblin but I'll admit it is still more entertaining than The King: Eternal Monarch (the biggest disappointment of the year) the romance is so bad it's good! 

 Shonali:

I can't recall a single K-drama without a nose-bleed scene. Being a medical student myself..I have seen more patients of epistaxis(nose-bleed) in K-dramas than the wards. ????????

I think it usually stems from a Korean old wives tale that if you work hard your nose will bleed-minus the characters who have them so we’ll know they’re dying from cancer. Similarly in Japanese fiction characters get them from being aroused.

Not sure if this is unpopular, but I think people should stop complaining about how there's no plot in romantic comedies. Honestly, these shows should be focused on the romance and relationships. Cliches work well when done right, and should not be hated. I don't think these types of shows need to have some sort of amazing, unique plot.

Wish more fresh faces were getting opportunities to lead mainstream dramas. As much as I love a lot of the established actors, there aren't a lot of newer 20 year olds who aren't (former or current) idols or former child actors.

Dramas with gorgeous cinematography sometimes fall flat for me on an emotional level. For instance, Goblin and The King. The romance in Hotel del Luna did not work for me, but the female lead backstory was great. I enjoyed 365: Repeat The Year and especially loved the transitions, but the drama didn't fully click for me until it was almost over.
