Care to elaborate? Your comment might be the most unhelpful I've read in a while... :-)
It might just be me, but I think the custom lists in our profile are much easier to manage than the huge long Drama List, and I find them easier to read in other folks' profiles as well. If you look at my profile, I have lists for a lot of things and more all the time. You could make a custom list of your favorites, (and even one of the worst dramas you've seen) and that way it's easy to make recommendations, etc. Totally up to you, of course!
And because this conversation doesn't have much to do with the drama in question, I'm going to make my comments spoilers as to not bog down the comments section. :-)

You're right - I haven't gotten around to rating all of them yet. I've been watching for a long time so I've seen a lot that I haven't rated yet. I try to rate the ones that I either really loved or really didn't love, and the ones that I just liked or thought were ok I sometimes don't get rated. Do you have a specific one in mind?
Funny how the reviews and comments in this comments section I remember vividly when it first dropped on Netflix…
YES. Also, literally people the world over are hella stressed, and perpetually pissed off, and it's making people mean. The amount of negativity in comments everywhere - here, social media, etc. is crazy right now.

I haven't seen it yet. I don't always look at comments before I watch something, but I happened to look here before watching and I saw yours. I wanted to know more about why you didn't like it, and your second comment was much more helpful. By the way, I notice that you mostly leave negative comments rather than when you like something. Can you tell me what dramas you've actually liked lately?
For those asking about other J-dramas that are game-oriented, make sure you check out Tomodachi Game with Yoshizawa Ryo. It's a very fun ride, imo, and Ryo knocks it out of the park. There's a drama and a movie as well. https://mydramalist.com/21453-tomodachi-game
I’m 3 episodes in and I can’t believe this could even be compared to squid game. Cliche and predictable and…
Have you watched more than three episodes by now? I very much disagree with you about it being cliche and predictable and I’m curious if you’ve actually seen the whole thing by now.
Wait, "weirdo people?" You mean hospice nurses and folks who are dying?!?
A lot of people have a lot of reasons why they "self-harm" and that does NOT make them weird, it means they're hurting. In this particular synopsis, his character seems to add tattoos as a way of self-harming, which is actually not a new concept, (and not why everyone chooses to get tattoos.) When someone is facing the end of their life, they can make choices that might not all make sense to the outside world, per se, but they make sense to them, (and that's all that matters.) Again, it doesn't make them weird.
I watched a lot of Asian action movies. K2 and Healer got me hooked on Kdramas. I saw JCW as as a budding Tom…
I disagree. I loved Lovestruck in the City, and certainly didn't think it was a debacle, like you said. I thought he did some nice work in that drama, and I thought the scene with him and his ex in the restaurant was some of the best acting I'd seen from him. Also, I'm curious why the synopsis is further proof that this isn't going to be a good drama. He's going to play a dying patient, who meets a nurse who will help him find meaning in the days he has left (or at least that's what I read from this article.) That sounds like a potentially emotionally rich role.
