I have found my new favourite review synopsis " Like how can the female lead get involved with a bloke who just is a utter bullocks as well as a bully man?!?!" Perfect line for so many dramas! Unfortunately the reason usually seems to boil down to - he is rich and handsome!
And here I am feeling there might be people not taking me seriously if I rate a drama with 10 and also put it…
I think I have two drama 10s in my list and as you say they are perfect for me but your mileage might vary. I must admit to rarely watching things that rate under 7. With most viewers over rating if it's under 7 it is usually pretty pants.
"Park Shin Hye was given a lemon and failed to make lemonade"Aye, she was the lemon!(as in, the metaphor)Agree,…
I really don't get his popularity, in terms of acting that is. I mean he's just not really that good; unless you want him to be Lee Min Ho which he is at least average at.

"If everything is a 10 then nothing is a 10" Which I'm fairly sure is a misquote of a film? Unfortunately that's how I've come to feel about reviews, not just here but in general. To me a 10 is an ultimate score not just good but eminently rewatchable, no skipping on the first watch, no complaints* re: plot, casting, acting etc.
If I check your watch list and you have half a dozen or fewer 10s I'll read your 10 reviews. As long as you only give 10s when you've watched all episodes. If there are only a few reviews for a title I might read them as well.
Story Rating If unsure then Reviews - I rarely if ever bother with 10* reviews but will always look for the lowest score reviews first and top out at around 8.5*.
Am I the only one who does not like this drama ?, I consider it very boring, I watched 2 episodes (a long time…
Nope same for me two episodes was enough for me. I didn't like any of them male or female so why watch them. 'Bad Boys' are a hard sell for me I'm afraid.
I found "A Piece of Your Mind" very easy to put down and very difficult/impossible to pick back up. "Catch the Ghost" was just too ...trite it lost me with the initial ML to FL dynamic though it is on my list for a revisit at some point. I'll have to pop in on the other two (though 'sexual content' isn't my bag). Thanks for the tips
This started out with a lot of promise but ended up loitering in a twee preachy zone. Shibasaki Ko felt a little wasted on the role of Nozomi but she was ably supported by the rest of the cast if not the script. Worth a go to see if you can cope,
So another drama that got the fans arguing. 290+ reviews ranging from disappointed 1* to gushing 10*. I managed a couple of episodes before I got distracted by something else. Grandma was the standout character for me. I'm going to put it in hold for now, I might pick it up again later but a couple of episodes and not being interested in what happens next is a bad sign.

Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
It does look good though, the cinematography (of what I watched) is excellent.
