MDLers Help Me Prioritize Unwatched Most Popular Dramas
Vote for as many of these dramas as you'd like! 👏
These dramas include the 50 'Most Popular' dramas on MDL that I haven't completed yet. This is also a list that has A LOT of well-known duds in it. I suppose you could think of these dramas as a way to torture me (or perhaps there IS a gem or two in there 🤞)!
I will commit in 2025 to watch the 10 dramas that receive the most votes. 🎉
