i don't understand what do you mean by half drama ?
I don't need to be fast-forwarding through most of a 16-episode show just so the actors get paid more. They know how much they will be getting paid; it's their option to take the job or not. Shows don't normally suddenly have less episodes than expected, except if it is doing really poorly and they want to cut their losses. Don't get me wrong, if it's written really well, I'm all about watching 16 episodes, it gives them a chance to go into more detail.
I understand dramatic license, but with a medical background, I struggle with inaccuracies. When the actors are doing things medically incorrect, or if something happens and I immediately say, "Come on, that would NEVER happen!", it takes me out of the show.

However, there are a lot of 16 episode shows that have no reason to be 16 episodes. I think if the story is well-told and cohesive without a cliffhanger (planning for season 2), eight episodes is fine. IMHO.
your opinion, but if you gave story and acting 6, I dont get why you dont give it at least like a 4... but okay,…
Because, for better or worse, my overall rating is for my enjoyment/appreciation of the show. I'm not a drama critic; I'm just a viewer. I can watch a show and objectively observe that the acting was good, but I hate the show. For me, there were just too many unlikeable characters, and implausible actions by the characters. The rating is more for me, to help me remember what I watched and why I did (or didn't) like it.
Love the actors, but not sure about their chemistry together. And I hope it's different than OBS, because I'm the one person in the entire world that didn't like it. That said, OF COURSE I'm tuning in!
I have lost count of the number of times I have been disappointed in the ending of a K-drama. I'm starting to think that they put apprentice writers on the final episode.
