VOTE: Dropped but re-picked up and loved dramas

This is a voting list for dramas that you have initially started then dropped, but eventually picked up after a period of time, and loving them so much.

Voting period: 13 Nov 2021, 6pm (GMT+8) - 13 Dec 2021 23:59 (GMT+8)

Some people are late bloomers - they start slow or their talents are not visible to others, but shine later.

Likewise, dramas may start on wrong footing and dropped by viewers: (1) Slow start; (2) Confusing start; (3) Clueless plot; (4) Too many new characters introduced; (5) Many unfamiliar new faces; (6) Lousy acting etc. Yet some of these dramas could be hidden gems that eventually shine and turn out to be masterpieces as the confusing, complex plot unfolds and the pieces stitch together.

What are some of these dramas that you have started watching but dropped after a few episodes, and eventually picked up after a period of time, and ended up loving and raving about them?

Cast your votes, say your piece so that awesome dramas are not missed out due to awful starting episodes!

Voting period: 13 Nov 2021, 6pm (GMT+8) - 13 Dec 2021 23:59 (GMT+8)

Note: 

  1.  I yet to have such a drama, so this list is purely based on your votes.
  2.  You do not have to vote only for dramas that appeared on the list already.
  3.  Feel free to add in drama(s) that is/are not already appearing on the list, by typing the name of each drama in the box above your vote ranking.
  4.  Each user has up to 10 votes, instead of the standard 100 votes. Be selective so that the list is truly representative of the seleted late bloomer-drama/hidden gems.
