Highly rated dramas I dropped
dramas that had ratings over 8.0 so i decided to give them a try, but ended up disliking them
-
1. A Journey to Love
Chinese Drama - 2023, 40 episodes
visually stunning, loved the FL and fight chorey, but depressing story
-
2. Kill Me Love Me
Chinese Drama - 2024, 32 episodes
depressing ending - why did the director have to change the novel's ending???
-
3. The Romance of Tiger and Rose
Chinese Drama - 2020, 24 episodes
i feel sorry for the other sisters, not the main FL. Only kinda stuck this through for the ML
-
4. Love All Play
Korean Drama - 2022, 16 episodes
i really wanted to like this cuz i like sports romance... and badminton.
As a Malaysian, I couldn't get past the ridiculous way they twisted our men's singles player Lee Zii Jia's name (to Lee Zia Zii for WOMEN'S DOUBLES) and Goh Liu Ying's one to Gori Uing ... PLEASE what kind of surname is Gori ... absolute lack of effort on the crew's part with details when it comes to Southeast Asia. Can't say I'm surprised.

5. Hidden Love
Chinese Drama - 2023, 25 episodes
i am SO SORRY i just couldn't deal with the acting of a 17 year old being like a 10 year old
(I swear I do like Zhao Lusi in other shows though)
-
6. Kill My Sins
Chinese Drama - 2025, 30 episodes
sighhh i loved the cast but this was way too dreary, it's like angst just for the sake of it?? plot wasn't convincing enough for all that

26. When We Were Young

the whole starting africa charity plot already made me give up on this
-
32. Fall in Love
Chinese Drama - 2021, 36 episodes
- smart leads, aesthetic setting/fashion (Zhang Jing Yi looked gorgeous in every scene)
- major second lead syndrome -- the more i think about it, the more i hate the main male lead and the FL who kinda has stockholm syndrome
- awful dubbing sometimes that threw me off & the middle episodes dragged in terms of angsty-ness
-

Chinese Drama - 2019, 24 episodes
kinda dragged on and on
-
