okay, in your opinion?

glad i helped you lol, hope you enjoy it

yes i know there are mixed genre cdramas, but op didn't seem interested which is why i suggested sticking to kdramas. it seems like a cultural difference for them (hence why they said cdramas are cringe and kdramas aren't). i don't really have kdrama recs because i'm not a big kdrama fan.

not necessarily kdrama "romcoms" but kdramas in general often interweave romance with other genres like thriller, fantasy, action, etc. i prefer c-romcoms over k-romcoms, but it seemed like op didn't care for it much. most of the cdramas you listed are fluff, melos, or historical which are acquired tastes.

examples of romance in mixed genre kdramas (not recommending, just listing): healer, flower of evil, w: two worlds apart, chicago typewriter, heartbeat, mystic pop up bar, vincenzo (a little), the k2, my name, mr queen, etc.

generally, a lot of c-romance seems to be more specifically romance and less mixed, besides historical. obviously this doesn't apply to every cdrama just generally. it's pretty obvious that op didn't care for c-fluff and prob won't like c-historical either though. they seem to prefer k-content.

ngl the gore is a bit much in this. i really want to watch it, but i'm having a hard time getting past it 😭

i'm assuming because it's an american production and so it can reach a wider audience. there is japanese dub i believe too

i can't tell if i should count this as a drama or as a tv show on my custom list

idk how i'm gonna get over this, i'm on an adventure-high lol

i'm not a big idol watcher, but he's always the exception. his acting is incredible, i just adore him.

i really love this show sm. it's hilarious and the couples are so cute. i wish people gave this show a chance for itself instead of going into it expecting or comparing it to s1

2019 and onward he's just had hit after hit, damn

do you have to watch s2 and s3 to get the full story or does the story mostly end in s1?

i know you made this comment a year ago, but this is based on the kdrama perseverance goo hae ra where her childhood friend basically dies and then his long lost twin takes his place lol. i know, it's a wild concept. it's not fantasy, it's just not the greatest type of story.

LMFAOOO KIBONG IN EP 13 IS HILARIOUS I CAN'T BREATHE

sang zhi is actually SUCH a good gf which is so refreshing because i've seen a lot of fmls that aren't very good gfs at all. but sang zhi is legitimately a kind, caring, understanding, fun, dorky, and ofc gorgeous gf. i love how she's not a typical bubbly loud cdrama fml who's always optimistic. it's quite nice to see a fml that's a bit more layered and less tropey.

if you feel bored already and skipping then i'd just drop it. it won't be as fast as wifty since the eps are longer and it's not set in school (which i've noticed is just easier to watch in general). there isn't much of a story. the popularity stems from how natural and healthy their relationship and acting is. the age gap is only evident when they're younger cuz it's a 5 year gap. he doesn't like her until she's an adult dw. but yeah rosy talks in a cutesy voice, it's pretty typical for cdrama actresses. sounds like it's just not for you tbh

good not cringe: nijiiro karute and gannibal
good somewhat cringe: kazoku game and todome no kiss
good very cringe: youkai sharehouse and gomenne seishun!

meh not cringe: the count of monte-cristo
meh somewhat cringe: kieta hatsukoi
meh very cringe: girl gun lady and kakegurui

lmaooo just wait until you watch the jdramas (coming from a jdrama fan)
