Interesting. I've never seen a drama with a rating of 8.7 or above on MDL I didn't like. I guess that just means…
I am saying every platform with rating system can be easily manipulated. Difference is with cult like fan following like it exsist in kdrama we get even more inconsistent scores then with other media.
People going throught the effort of voting kdrama on imdb and other sites are mostly biased extremists on either side and clueless airheads.
Basically the reason why rating in kdrama are worse then in other media is because votes are more bipolar and heavily biased on actors cult following.
People fail to understand that u can enjoy the media while still see its flaws and criticise it. U can love and like something because it's ur personal bias yet still think it's like a 6 or 7..
MDL is still the best site for kdrama reviews and discussion. Problem is that scores that used to be somewhat better then other sites now became as unusable as other sites is what I am saying.

Yeah imdb have same issues as mdl because kdramas have small amount of ratings. Only way you get bad score there if u pissed of some groups of people and they review bomb it.

Well tbh I started looking though multiple reviews because you can then form some sort of idea how the show actually is. People who make an effort to write proper reviews help a lot. I am ofc ignoring fanboi 10s and random haters. You can also check people profile and see if its some new random account.
Reviews on mdl are also further filtered and voted by more dedicated fans by how useful they are and you can see how mdl users in general agree with the reviews. On this show highly agreeable reviews are mostly reviews rating this show mediocre.
Now me saying mdl rating is bs and easy to manipulate is definitely way more believable then some conspiracy about voting. Mdl votes have small sample size so you can easily manipulate scores. Another thing about mdl rating is is the fact that nothing is stopping crazy dedicated fans to make ton of accounts or bots to inflate the rating. There is no barrier of entry. You can create ton of accounts and just spam boost scores with day 1 accounts. Reviews atleast take effort to write and u can see if it's not some new account or like ton of botted copy paste low effort.
This is also mixed with usual people who rate every romcom or drama they finished a 10 aswell as idol worshipers who straight up give it 10 no matter what just for their idol being in there.
So yeah I am definitely looking into comments and reviews because mdl score seem useless. Now I am not saying this show is unwatchable but it is mediocre with many flaws that does not reflect a 9 imo.
Like I have never watched a movie that is like a 9 or maybe around 8.5 on imdb and thought to myself that it is mediocre. Now I did think it was not for me but it's good for the genre or I did not enjoy it asmuch because it wasn't my taste but did see and appreciate what they were doing but I sure can't say the same for many of these dramas rated high on mdl.
On this site just adding actor with huge fanbase boost mediocre drama score by +2 and up

This drama general score has complete disconnect compared to most reviews and it's approval on the reviews.
Ain't no way there isn't some sort of manipulation going on there that is inflating the score.
When something is rated that highly it's expected that in general most will like it in some way even if it's not their genre. Score like that usually transcends genres and personal biases unless person is completly close minded.
Now I am pretty much open to all genres apart for huge dislike for triangles that I am still sometimes ok with if it's well done or other parts are that great. This is a very flawed show that will be enjoyed by people who like this sort of thing they are going for but it's not 9.1 show that transcends genres and is near perfect with no major flaws that could be enjoyed by almost everyone.
Expectations set with this score make it seem like it's gonna be something special yet in reality it's average at best and even offputing by some.
I am trying to continue watching this after dropping it initially and I am so confused in the way they interact with each other considering she was pregnant in the past and they are together for years yet they act and interact as strangers, especially ML. It makes absolutely no sense to me.
The writers really dropped the ball with that storyline, which is a shame because it’s an important topic which…
This comment is better and more thought out then whole plot in the show. Do you think they didn't cover this because of sponsorship/ funding restrictions?
Unfortunately for some reason, only the negative (?) reviews are marked most helpful, if you think helpful reviews…
Mdl will favor newer reviews that gain traction. Also 10 out 10 review does not sound like a valid review I could take seriously and so far in my life I never read useful 10/10 review on this site.

When I say they interact weird I ment they act like teenagers and not estranged married couple.
