wasn’t it a game world in the novel too?

One is clearly better than the other lol

I loved this piece! The writing is really engaging, and it hit a lot of good points for me! 💗✨
I started of as a pretty isolated J-drama viewer as a kid, I don't think I was even aware that there was a community for dramas. But once I got into K-drama and C-drama I realised that Asian dramas and the drama community are pretty much interconnected.

Honestly, I'm only just easing out of "must-watch-all-hyped-dramas, must-fit-in" phase. Whenever I force myself to watch something purely for hype reasons, it all just feels so meaningless and I get antsy to move on to the next drama asap. I recently spent a while cleaning out my 'plan to watch' list, leaving just the stuff that I'm genuinely interested in. Because the dramas that I really love aren't ones which I feel forced to watch because of hype, but ones that I gravitate towards naturally.

But I will say, as someone who has zero friends that watch Asian dramas, watching over hyped dramas while they're airing is especially fun for me. I get to experience every single moment with the rest of the fandom and it's just nice to have people to discuss it with ~

Wait, years????

Ahh I wish there was an option for the op to comment on each drama in the list. I really wanna know the reasons why you don't like some of these. I agree with a few but I haven't seen a lot of these dramas so to me it just seems like a list of the most popular dramas of all time lol

Idk what's with the rating but I personally really liked the show. I think I went in with the expectation that there'd be a greater focus on the whole anonymous cam-girl thing (since it's a major part of all the promotional stuff), but that didn't last too long so was a bit disappointed on that front. However, everything else was pretty good. I liked how all of the characters are flawed (or deeply messed up) in one way or another. One second I'd be rooting for a character, the next second I'd hate them. It was weirdly refreshing and ig it helped convey a broader message.

I feel like this sort of story line and format is more what I expect from kmovies so it's sick to see it being translated into kdramas! I'm excited to see more unique dramas like this coming out :)

The anime was really interesting, fun, and surprisingly wholesome, so I'm hoping the drama will be the same!

Seen a lot of ppl saying 2024, but I'm gonna stay hopeful!! For now I might just rewatch Moonlight or ROTLF cus I need the silly goofy esther vibes for my sanity

Is this confirmed to be airing in 2023? Now that MJTY is over I need my next dose of xinxin asap! 😭

Most of these aren't even romcoms 😐

Yup they end up together, but there's also kinda a cliff hanger for S2

To me he kinda felt more like a mother/big brother figure

I kinda thought/hoped GYZ was gonna have a little crush on YWS or smth too, since there isn't really a 2nd love interest for her, but I think it's too late for that plot line now 🤷‍♀️

I love all the beautiful shots in this drama, but every so often they throw in a wacky ppt transition and it completely throws me off lol

Idk about the synopsis, but the pictures are from a variety show called Lets Go Skiing that YSX and LY are in. It doesn't really have anything to do with the drama.

Ah shit, did something happen???? Ashi girl and Kyo kara ore wa are two of my all time fav jdramas :(

That trailer was sickkkk!!!!!

I gotta say, S1 and S2 feel like two completely different dramas, not that it's inherently a bad thing.
Also, poor Seo Yul silently suffering every season. My second lead syndrome really kicks in with him.

It seems more like Eripiyo obsesses over Maina as an idol but Maina has an actual crush on Eripiyo, at least thats the vibes that I got

Completely an accident. Misclicked the link for this on the MDL homepage. I'm sucker for period dramas so I decided to give it a go anyway. Now I'm addicted :)
