~~Unpopular Opinions about Kdramas ~~

I feel like I was the only one who didn't get SLS in Who Are You: School 2015 and Extraordinary You.

For Who Are You: School 2015, I walked into it loving Nam Joo Hyuk and walked out of it loving Nam Joo Hyuk so the SL really didn't stand a chance with me.

For Extraordinary You, Baek Kyung was a bully. A sad and pitiful one but he was very aggressive towards Eun Dan Oh and I felt like he caused more harm to her heart too.  He was very unlikeable and so there was no way SLS would get me.

Someone tell me the appeal cause to me, he aint it -_- #hardpass

lol I don't get the appeal over him and Lee Jae Wook *hardpass too*

I have always wanted to say this but characters like Jo Yi Seo from Itaewon class and Ko mun young from it’s ok to not be ok are a romanticization of the mental illness ASPD...both dramas were so hard for me to watch cuz the sensitivity that other mental illnesses get, ASPD doesn’t get it and that’s somewhat understandable bcuz after all they’re a danger to society but it’s so sickening how they somehow manage to romanticize the mental illness. 

#sorrynotsorry

Extraordinary You is one if not the worst drama I have ever watched. I thought about giving up so many times, which didn't happen often since I started Kdramas. 

Not gonna say Ro Woon did a poor job but I failed to be interested in his arc and character. Honestly I was more interested in the relationship between Dan Oh and Kyung.

I miss older dramas from the 2000's. I feel many recent dramas lack  something now and I don't know what it is. I'm not saying all recent dramas are bad. There are some that are truly amazing, but  for me many romances feel boring...

Yea I agree, some of my more memorable romance dramas are from the 2000's, or the first decade of this century :)

• Full House     2004
• Sweet 18    2004
• My Girl    2005
• Goong  2006
• Coffee Prince     2007
• Boys Over Flowers    2009
• Shining Inheritance    2009
• Playful Kiss    2010
• Secret Garden    2010

I feel like they give you a more fulfilling romance stories during this period. Too often with newer series the romance part is in the backseat, but was in the driving seat during that 2000-2010 period.

Wouldn't that be nostalgia? I feel like there are more dramas now, and since there are so many it means you need to be more picky about what you choose to watch. I do agree that dramas are trying to be more than just romance stories now, which sometimes feels like the romance part is in the backseat. When I think about the 2000's I think about the sad romances, very focused on the two leads and with a somewhat sad ending.

For me It's a bit of both I think because I started watching dramas like My Girl, Full House. But those that stayed with me the most were A Love To Kill, Tree of Heaven, I'm Sorry I love you...

And Recently I'm watching Crazy For You and I'm enjoying it so much more than some recent dramas I watched at the same time. It took me by surprise.

I don't get the hype of Descendants of the Sun. In my opinion there is basically no plot and too much cheesiness.
I think the interactions between the main couple were dull. Their personalities seemed to be so perfect that I couldn't sympathize with them.

(I loved the scenery and OST's though) 

THIS!!!!! It was sooooo predictable and all the over the top comedy made it so dull! I watched it only once on 1.5x speed and was done.
