Well, I've managed to watch 30 out of the 178 all the way through and a couple of those I only managed because I was still new to SE Asian Drama. I got through a couple more by skipping most of the story arcs I didn't like. I think I've probably tried over 90% of them. So, on the whole I'm pretty on board. I'd pretty much agree with all the top 15 apart from Goblin which I rewatch regularly (all except the last episode - once was enough).
Bit too puerile for me I'm afraid, I struggled through the first episode and gave the second a good go and flicked through another. There are some good actors on show and the premise sounded interesting but just not my bag, every time it started to pull me in silliness ensued. Good fun if the humour is your thing.
I was drawn in by a couple of Goblin and suchlike comparisons which are truly unjustified.
An excellent review which I thoroughly agree with.
Modern C drama - Provide uncomplicated poorly thought-out hook to bring couple together, forget hook - rely on 'cute' interactions of Celeb leads with occasional tropes thrown in. Rinse. Repeat
Got to halfway before the stupid things for the sake of keeping the plot going just got too much. It was an OK zombie thing but as ever zombies work better in films better than in series.
Hahhaa did you watch for Park Hana or Wang Bitna?I cant tell. I am looking for a Park Hana drama to watch.She…
It takes time to change culture even once you accept it needs changing - The UK is still trying to sort out it's problem with male suicide and we've known about it for a while now.

I can't remember which now so let's stick with both. Park Ha Na is an actress that always catches my attention unfortunately many of her dramas just aren't my thing.
Ok, enough is enough for me. I have decided to drop this drama now. I have nothing against the cast, I adore the…
Good review echoing pretty much why I dropped it. How on earth did she get so many certificates for bravery when she pretty much becomes helpless in every situation after episode one?
I was doing the ironing at the weekend and couldn't find anything nice and light to watch whilst doing so. Then this popped up on one of the lists and I'm watching it and still laughing and getting the feels from it. I think I've watched it once a year since it aired it ain't perfect but it's great.
I stuck it out for a while but they were all so unlikeable and I got to the point where I didn't care if she was found if it only stopped all those 'this time?' moments. I'll put it on hold and try it again some day.
i think it's the male dominated society that they live in. I put off watching c-dramas for this exact reason
LTCFL was sort of OK but the 'you must conform to the accepted beauty standards' bit was hard to crunch. She wasn't beautiful and successful till she had lost the glasses, curls, tan etc.
Kooky for the sake of kookiness only really works for short periods without something solid to frame it. This does not have that framework which is a waste of a couple of good actors. Dropped
