I'm a fan of Kim Jae Wook. But it's not the reason I love Her Private Life. For me, liking an artist as a person is not the same as liking all their works or characters. So I will not go around saying a drama is good just because an actor playing in it, like some people do. So among Kim Jae Wook's works I can point out which one is not good or which one is good.
Haha it's true people tend not to read description, but I do. Writing it in title is also good.
You are quite observant. Some of your lists are something that I wouldn't even think of making. And it is quite hard to remember past dramas that match the list
Well, because we have quite similar taste and background in drama watching (I just read your profile), I hope you can enjoy dramas I mentioned as much as I did.
Haha I know the feeling. I sometimes encounter lists that contain dramas which don't fit into descriptions. Some people even just put dramas they like despite not fitting the theme, or even worse because they like the actors in that dramas.
So seeing your list which is quite objective and fit the theme is interesting to me. I see each of the dramas and thought ah yes there is that scene or indeed the lead is as described. It makes me reminiscence about those dramas. Well done!
yes it takes up the time you could've used to watch other dramas but it's actually fun :)
That's right. Even though I feel like I have watched many dramas, there are still a lot of dramas that I missed or haven't watched. In my case also, I can't get excited rewatching or even have the willingness to start rewatching. So that's why those three are the only dramas that I rewatched and I still finished them the second time (with the same level of excitement).
Oh, I see. Thanks for the explanation. It's really helpful. So the owner does have control on what to add or not to the list in case voters vote on dramas that are not really fit into the list.
FL characters in a drama where you'd adopt her life in totality: her career, her past (trauma if any), her present/future struggles, her quirks and mannerisms as well as all her strengths and weaknesses. That's totally Park Min Young in Her Private Life. I am a fangirl myself, I accept everything of her and I need Ryan Gold in my life (I can mend his trauma myself). Haha :)
There is another great drama of Kim Eun Sook, titled On Air in 2008. It was against The World That We Live In starring Hyun Bin and Song Hye Kyo and although I totally love the two actors, On Air was totally winning in terms of the story telling. I tried to vote/add it but the search won't show it. The drama is here in MDL so I don't know why. Maybe you can add it to this list if you want.
Since I'm not a fan of rewatching, especially dramas because it's long hours needed, there are only three dramas that I rewatch one time (so it makes twice watching): Meteor Garden, Full House, and Itazura na Kiss. And that's what I vote for. All the original ones. I don't watch the remake or sequel.
You're welcome. I don't know how the list work in MDL. So does what the voters add to the list will show up in your list even though you haven't watch it or can it be pushed out? What's the number limit?
there would be the kind of dramas that you'd rather watch after it finishes airing because the episodic cliffhangers…
Usually, dramas that I end up binge watching are dramas that I just found out being awesome after it finished airing. I never intentionally put off watching if I knew they're good. I don't mind being driven crazy waiting each week. LOL It's a gem when you found such dramas. It makes you excited. :)
I'm seriously confused voting on this. I watched most ongoing so it's hard to imagine binge watching them. I guess I will just vote the ones that I indeed binge watching before (there are 12 dramas).
Wow, i rarely rewatch dramas so I understand if you got sick of it a little bit after rewatching that many times. LOL
I also loved making lists before but I made them on other site. While here, I haven't made specific theme list of dramas. But I do enjoy seeing other people's lists.
I added Scarlet Heart Ryeo because back then in 2016, I watched that drama 3 times a day. Streaming live the same time it air in Korea and then watch the SBS version and International version because sometimes there are few different scenes. As if it's not enough, I went into drama discussion in several forums. I suffered greatly, well in a good way.
Me too. I love Hello Monster the most out of the three examples you mention. It's just that in every of your lists, dramas that I thought will be in it are in it. So that's why I said we have quite a similar taste in dramas.

I have to rewind my memory to remember.
