well.. short on Romance, but that's how it goes. Definitely looking forward to the following:
***Love Alarm 2
***Half of Half
***Itaewon Class
***Ssanggab Cart Bar
***Sisyphus: The Myth
NOTE: I'm strongly on the "Iffy" side regarding; The King: The Eternal Monarch. We'll see... not a fan of parallel world dramas

Being a over-the-top Romantic Fantasy Historical Drama's Fan... I've noticed how these type of drama are becoming extinct..lol. However, I'm still a weakling when it comes to any type of Romance & melodrama's as well. That's okay.. it's life.
However, the upcoming 2020 K-drama's that I've listed are ones that hopefully will be 10 star tickets.
A Huge Thank You Skye-N-Rain for all your hard work putting this together for us drama lovers. :)

***Well Said PrettyCarEye***

PrettyCarEye... You've nailed it completely. As I said in my earlier comment, I consider Erika more at fault. She wasn't naive to the fact that Masahiro Higashide was a married man prior to the affair even happening. Therefore, a victim she is not. Once again, we don't know the circumstances of this family, and as you pointed out the difference in Japanese culture in certain aspects... hence we have no right to judge. We don't know what is seen behind close doors and honestly the only reason this is getting out of hand is because they are both celebrities.. and they aren't allowed to have a private life. Yes Masahiro Higashide has to hold responsibility for his actions... but in my personal opinion Erika should hold the brunt of it. My heart aches for his children, especially having to see all the hate toward their father. If they are going to get out of this barely unscathed ... they will need the Love and Support of both parents and the extended family. Even as a outsider.... those children will be in my prayers.

Life, this is life. The only problem is, he and she are both celebrity and he was caught. Marriage is not perfect... don't get me wrong, I'm Hard Core when it comes to the institution of marriage that the vows taken. Being faithful is a wild card, I don't care if you're the wife or hubby that's been married for 2 months or several years. It's a wild card... especially for celebrities who are put in situations that bring on that temptation... not too mention the possibility that maybe... just maybe the so-called happy couple wasn't really so happy behind closed doors. Just because they have children and she's pregnant etc.. doesn't mean heavenly bliss. We don't know... we can only assume. I'm not one to make that judgement call.. and I won't sit on a public jury to do so.. since I've been cheated on by my EX-hubby. However, I know the situation with me... no one has the right to throw the 1st stone. Only the one that has the right to judge... is a greater being. (My personal outlook, not to offend anyone).
***What both ... BOTH did by having this affair is Wrong, to say the least. Higashide Masahiro for not having the strength to overcome that temptation & stay faithful. If he was having marital issues he should have waited.. gotten a divorce and then find where his happiness is. There is no excuse for adultery... NONE.
As for the Actress Karata Erika, she's the worst of the two in my opinion. WHY? She's not stupid.. nor blind to the fact that Higashide Masahiro is married with children etc. from the start... before there was any kind of relationship between them. Yet she continued to become involved with him. She's has more fault in this, especially being a woman and not thinking.. how she would feel if the tables were turned. Also... it stated that Higashide Masahiro wife is pregnant ... so.. He was still sexually involved with his wife and dating Erika, and this was not a sign to Erika? ***
Well as I stated... I don't condone Adultery.. I strongly believe in the Vows taken when you decide to make that choice to say those two words in front of God... "I Do/I Will". However, once you cross that forbidden line... it's God that you have to answer too in the end.

That's funny Brownie... lol. However, agreed.. a Season 2 is just a waste of viewing. It was a happy ending... THE END PERIOD!!! LOL!!!

I'm really surprised that this young actor Sung Hung isn't in more Romantic Drama's playing the Main Lead. I meannnn... I first admired this young actor in *Noble My Love* which the character he portrayed showed the amazing talent this young man has. Then the ever fabulous *My Secret Romance*. I know that he has been in other roles, but either the leading lady didn't fit with him/his character or.. the storyline just didn't seem to be up to par with his amazing ability as an actor. Hopefully he'll get the recognition that is so greatly deserved with much better main leading star roles... with the right leading lady & script. Wishing him many more amazing years showing his brilliant talent on the big screen of stars.

I'm not a Kamen fan, only because I'm just too too old..lol.... 64 yrs and counting.
However, I just had the pleasure to watch this young actor in *Nee Sensei, Shiranai No?*, where he definitely shines.. he has incredible talent to be a leading actor. I'm looking forward to other drama's this young man will be in. He has definitely earned my respect and admiration as an upcoming young talent that deserves to go far.. or should I say UP!!! Many good luck wishes for your future endeavors Akaso Eiji.

Although I'm not too familiar with all the members of EXO.. I wish this young man and his future wife many many happy years together. This young lady could be a true blessing in his life.

Strong Admiration & Respect for this young Amazingly Talented Actor Hyun Bin, From the first time I had the pleasure to watch him in *Secret Garden* to *Hyde, Jekyll & Me as well as *Memories of Alhambra*. I'm always looking forward to enjoying another drama with this young actor playing the lead... each character he show his talent and gives it 101%. Looking forward to the upcoming drama ***Crash Landing On You*** which looks totally AMAZING!!!

I had the pleasure to watch this young actor in Unrequited Love, and I do have to say that he's definitely a strong contender for the Golden Star when it comes to Romance drama's. lol. I'm a sucker for romance drama's. His leading lady in that drama was exceptional as well.. Both of them had brought a new reality of young high school & college unrequited romance. I'll continue to look forward to romantic drama's with this young actor in the future. Wishing him the very best in life from this day forward!!!

Strongly Admire Both of these Amazing Actress/Actor. I hope this get added and subbed soon.

I can only describe this young actor as *Amazingly Outstanding*. In just the few J-drama's & films I've had the pleasure to watch Hiura Haruma in... just had me admiring this young man and his Incredible Talent as an actor. I seem to always look for anything that has him as the Main Leading Actor, especially in a romance drama. He's just has that special quality that is hard to find.

It's sad that this young talented man is still struggling to get his life back. Those who still condemn him, and those who have never left his side. I can't make assumptions of what happened in the past... I'm not a mind reader nor was I in the same room with the both of them. But I do understand women who will do or say whatever they can if their relationship is going south. Whatever happened in the court ... whatever was proven.. is one thing no one can say for sure. Press information... that's a joke.. .sometimes the press will exaggerate the facts. Why? Because... He or She is a Celebrity and they want to sell papers!!! This is why I don't ever want to cyber bully or make unwarranted comments if I didn't personally witness the crime or accusations. One party can say one thing and another say something else.. he said, she said. All I know is this young man has Amazing Talent... he has served his country, came home and we should only wish him the best. He's suffered enough from who he adored and worked hard for... ***His Fans***, and now that a lot of his fans has turned their backs.. My heart goes out to him and hope he will come back to his rightful place. As for the woman who put him in this situation... she is going to have to live with what was truth and what wasn't... just like he will. We all have a conscience... we all will have to answer to our maker sooner or later for our sins. Unless we are perfect people and have done nothing wrong... none of us have the right to Judge or condemn another. I'm a survivor of being abused sexually, physical and mentally that happened behind closed doors. Yet I still have no right to judge another person's situation. Mr. Kim Hyun Joong.. I can't say that I'm a Over-the-top super-fan... or a fan in general. I'm just a drama viewer that has admired your Singing and Acting Talent. I wish you only the best in the future years to come. Continue to take care of your Precious Health.. and may the Good Lord continue to embrace you.

I look forward to seeing this young man in more leading roles. He's already got the Hard part down... His Acting Ability is ***SPOT ON*** ... so the rest will be smooth sailing for him.

Spot on with the "A Gentleman's Dignity" & "Cunning Single Lady" with wanting to punch someone in the face... lol. The other drama's mentioned, I dropped.

This young Amazing Talented actor Shawn Dou, I have so much admiration and respect for. I've completed watching the latest *See you again* and with my heart in hand... I have to say this young man truly hold his profession with so much Valor. I will rarely speak too highly of any talented actor/actress... however, this young actor deserves the recognition of his career. Every movement, expression of whichever character is given, he's like a very fine wine that gives that smoothness that is unforgettable. I believe I first had the pleasure to see his acting in *Princess Agents* where he stood out more than the Main Male Lead. I will continue to look forward to the new drama's that are listed above for 2019 & 20 that he will be featured in. God willing, I'll have another year of life to enjoy these amazing dramas.
My Good wishes for this young man to continue to be a Shining Golden Star.

I started admiring this young actor when I first saw his outstanding talent in *Full House and A Love to Kill* However, it just doesn't seem that there is enough drama's out there showing his Leading man Talent. Hoping that he continues to bring his professional God given talent to the golden screen with scripts and leading ladies that can come close to his Bright Light of Stardom.

I have to agree with you, I'm in the same hole. I'm currently watching all my favorites. Even some of those you've mentioned. I keep looking for new shows that will peak my interest... but it turns out... none of the new drama's have grabbed hold of me. I've gone with recommendations from other viewers to even my drama friends. So I'll continue to watch over again my favorites. It's really sad that some of these drama's are suffering ... from either the direction of the movie.. or the script and in some cases unfortunately, the casts. Oh well, I will continue to look and see what is new and keep my fingers cross that things will get better.

After viewing the 12 Anticipated drama's. I only found 3 that would interest me to the fullest.
1. Half of Half
2. Memorist
3. Psycho but it's okay.
As for the others... they just aren't my cup of tea. drama's regarding parallel universes tend to bore me, no matter who the actress/actors are. Plus revenge drama's ... lol... you get that also in any drama, so why watch something I seem to run across all the time. The school nurse with the special ability... uhmmm... yea, maybe not.
However, I'm sure there are plenty of Drama fans that will pick the remaining 9 that I wasn't interested. I'm just giving my opinion.
Most of all ... THANK YOU MDL for posting these that are upcoming. I'm excited :)

This young actor is simply amazing, and I have to agree with most of the comments... He does deserve more ***Main Roles***. I always enjoy watching this young man with characters that fit him so well.
