Oh!And I have also the "rewatch" disease. When I really like something, I can rewatch it endlessly.
I have the rewatch disease, too.
That's why I actually hate when shows have multiple seasons. I prefer one good season and then multiple rewatches, each one revealing more and more details to enjoy and relish. Or the same great details, already seen and noticed, to enjoy and relish more and more each time.
And then when you get to the point where you know ahead each line a character is about to say and yet you are not tired of the story, then you know the story is truly good and well-told.
I have another kind of dropping disease, or rather put-on-hold disease. If I like a drama too much and I'm in risk of binge watching I put it on hold to cool down a little, because I rarely have time to watch something for 5, 6 or more hours straight. It also happens when any building tension is just too much for me to handle.
I then return to such dramas, sometimes a week later, sometimes a month later, sometimes a year later and sometimes only when forced by Netflix removals.
As for the original dropping disease, I do sometimes drop dramas for good. Mostly when I no longer care or am interested and the storytelling is bad.
I'm on episode 7 of this drama and quite enjoying it, but they lost me at Kiiv Opera in Russia. Even went to Google to check if I'm missing something.
Kang So Ra's delivery of Russian in early episodes, though, was good. At least I could understand most of what she was saying, unlike the Russian I had heard in a couple of other dramas before.
My first encounter with K-Dramas was back in 2007 or thereabouts. I remember watching one modern drama and one historical drama on arirang, but don't remember much from either of those, or even their titles.
Then, some years later, Asian content started popping up on YouTube. Back then I was watching anything Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice related I could only get my hands on. That's how the K-Drama with the same title was suggested to me: a small pirated version, fresh on air. Got me hooked instantly. But only the arrival of Netflix to my country opened up a wide selection of Korean dramas and since then I've been gobbling them up in earnest.
