NOW, "WHY DID I NOT SEE YOUR ARTICLE EARLIER" IS THE QUESTION. I opened MDL to read reviews on The King's Avatar and decide if I should watch it as I'm not a fan of gaming either. I happened to stumble across your profile and read this article. Leo Wu and Luhan in the same drama wow, sounds like the next drama on my PTW. Thanks a ton for this article!!!!!
I started my drama journey with cdramas but often skipped historicals. I've just started my historical drama journey with Romance of Tiger and Rose. I was confused with what Xianxia and wuxia meant, now I'm clear thanks to your amazing article! Will check out untamed, ashes of Love and love and redemption!!
Why do I feel that it would take forever for the ML and FL to start having feelings for each other! I feel so…
They already have a good chemistry even tho they don't have feelings yet. I think the balance between genres is very well done so far. Since it's a slow burn romance, I think they'll realise their feelings after ep 10. We haven't seen half of the drama yet!
Sometimes low-rated shows become our absolute favourites and high-rated shows are just ehh. Before I joined MDL, I used to watch recommendation videos on YouTube and binge dramas. After joined MDL, I was surprised to find my favourites rated below 8!! My love from the ocean: 7.4 The heirs: 7.5 Mountains and ocean: 7.6 I like to be on the safe side and often watch dramas above 8.4 nowadays lol. I took the "risk" with 7 First Kisses recently (6.9 on MDL) only because it's a very short drama, about 10 min per episode (8 eps). For the rec, I absolutely hated It's Okay To Not Be Okay even tho it has a 9.1 lol
