To choose the proposed dramas.
If I had to write it down, it will probably be none of those exactly, because they are the most immediate ideas and that requires to be twisted. The result can only be known after enough additional ideas have been developed.
Everyone has to make their own personal choices, here are mine.
I remove all proposals for which I have no knowledge and which make it very difficult to establish a credible context: everything that is historical and refers to the history of an Asian country, because I was not born there.
- Historical Musical.
- 1930s.

Then I take out everything that is very common and typical of a fan-fiction.
- EXO the Movie. (to be banned absolutely!)
- The Heist. (super-team principle, very used in FF, dramas based on it are mostly boring, the player, rugal, etc. Only "Mission Impossible" or the Canadian series "VIP hustlers" have caught my attention).

Hard to estimate.
- The Fairytale. (may need some historical elements though, or at least to keep a sense of Asian fantasy, I don't feel fit for the subject)
- The Spies. (probably the same problem as The Heist, plus I am unable to write a female team. Still, I could be Ok for a spy/action story, easily enough).

Most accessible and worthwhile:
- Fashion Runway. (But I have no knowledge of fashion.)
- The Rock. (watch out for the FF effect on this one)
- The Duo.

Since I have no affinity with slice-of-life, that leaves "The Duo" as a base. Although I might have some ideas for "The Rock", having a knowledge of the music business. Or a very different version of "The Spies".
Also "The Duo" is a good context to use other concepts, a breathtaking story with big plot-twists. That's my kind of thing!

I think you're on your way to writing a drama. ^^

It's really something I would like to see. I don't know if you really want to do it, but I encourage you to. Maybe with the help of your friend, if she's interested.
There are people writing fan fiction, but hardly anyone writing a real drama script. I have searched a lot on the internet. You can find mostly movie screenplays, or TV show pilots. But not a complete drama (a beginning, an end, and 16 to XX episodes). These scripts are in the western format, not in the Asian format, which is much more friendly to write and read.

However, the time and work involved is extremely high. It will be difficult to do anything else with your free time, if you want to finish in less than two years. Even then, it will be very imperfect and will require a lot of editing.

There are many tips on story creation (I have a whole list!), but the only thing that really matters is your work, your imagination, and your total commitment to the project. If it's a story you half-believe in, it's much harder. But that's the case with many people who write, they're not involved. I know this from having written many stories that I loved, but wasn't fully involved in. And for many, I never finished them. If you're really involved, the ideas come pouring in so fast that it's almost unbearable to live with.

Unfortunately, I have a lot of trouble to find where to watch Japanese dramas, but I know they have the potential…
There is a sublime scene where the actor plays a variation of Mozart on "ah que vous dirais-je maman".
I searched everywhere for this variant, but it was impossible to find it. Only in the drama is it possible to hear it. There are fabulous harmonic distortions. It is transcendentally beautiful.

Indeed, you were blocked because that's all it is possible to do with people doing insulting insinuations. Discussing…
I couldn't see the other comments. It also erases the other answers. And then your last mockery was so ridiculous, like...
"Mistress, mistress, thank you, I was blocked, ahahaha".
Did you think you were in kindergarten?

Being defensive enough is necessary. Am I wrong? Ah, I don't have a photograph of your encephalogram in front of me. I don't spend my life chasing your threads either!
Have a nice day.

Disappointed to see no Japanese dramas on the list when they probably make the most mature dramas (and the best).…
Unfortunately, I have a lot of trouble to find where to watch Japanese dramas, but I know they have the potential to be very twisted.
Secret Love Affair is good, but the pace is slow. It is mature but reasonable. However quite scandalous for a Korean drama. ;-)

Love in Sadness. (Korean)
While one of the characters is obsessive to the extreme, the others also have a bit bug up their sleeve. ^^
A scene from the first episode : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohuIXYTGw_w
It's one of my favorite, great acting. The tension kept me from breathing throughout the drama.

Warui yatsura. (Japan)
I can't give spoiler, but in short, sordid passion with nurse, surgeon and murders.
Last scene of episode 1 is perfect.

Indeed, you were blocked because that's all it is possible to do with people doing insulting insinuations. Discussing with agitators is a waste of time, leading to endless replies, and just creating a mess in the comments.

I gave you a chance by providing a courteous answer.
I gave you another chance by dropping the conversation.
Even then you don't have the intelligence to understand and you insist?

As much as I enjoy abusive characters and situations in dramas, as much it's painful in real life, and I avoid that kind of thing. Like here.

From the beggining, you insisted I answer a question but you never asked any question, you just did what most manipulative people do:
You created a bogus accusation, misrepresenting what I said, to which any response is controlled by a junk formulation, with a "?" at the end. With the sole purpose of pouring out your whole mess of moralistic recriminations afterwards, in all logic. I don't give a damn about this kind of pettiness.

I can see this kind of trap happening light years away. Kind of normal, that's exactly what bad people do in dramas, or on MDL when they bully other people and pour their hate on actors who have had affairs. It's the basis of unhealthy characters, and a standard in the way they are written.

Your problem, like most people who can't separate fact from fiction, is that you project your insecurities, and certainly find a negative reflection of yourself.
If you can't deal with certain content because of your personal problems, don't!
But don't bother people who give their opinion on these contents, and their interest in conflict, dramatic intensity, or representation of the human being in its less noble facets.

One last thing: I often noticed that the people who enjoyed dramas featuring immoralities were also the most psychologically balanced people, with whom it was easy to be friends, and whose behavior in life was positive. People who know their dark side, face it, heal it, and don't turn it away by attacking others.

Title Vincenzo Spoiler
i am waiting to finish airing so i can binge watch the drama. so can anyone tell me if this drama same as lawless…
No. Only the main story look like a bit.
Lawless Lawyer is dark comedy, more subtil. It don't need to make tons. You are in a situation looking like a spaghetti western. Main character face a corrupted city on purpose, cheat with the law, but use law to defeat opponents.
Vincenzo is slapstick comedy, people doing tons, screams, etc. I didn't watched until reaching this point, but I read in comments Vincenzo become mad with rage and criminal. Don't use law anymore, making him a rather vengeful and dark hero.

There was an even worse ratio effect in Graceful Friends where the screen was squished together and everyone looked…
I compare two episodes 1, from dramas with the same duration.
Episodes used for general exposition.
- Hospital playlist, 1h20, 1245 lines of dialogue.
- The Penthouse, 1h20, 967 lines of dialogue.
The Penthouse has as many characters to assimilate, or even more.
And yet, unlike Hospital Playlist :
- All the characters are easily assimilated.
- The drama is captivating with several plots sent.
With only 78% of the dialogue of Hospital Playlist, the comprehension, assimilation and plotlines are incomparably better.
This is the difference between a talented scriptwriter and one who writes blah blah.

Title Hospital Playlist Spoiler
There was an even worse ratio effect in Graceful Friends where the screen was squished together and everyone looked…
I feel bad for you because you suffered 7 more episodes than I did ^^
But it's interesting to know that it doesn't get better afterwards. That everything is so repetitive and empty. With people running around singing songs. These songs are supposed to have a meaning related to the drama of course. It's clever, sophisticated. But in reality, who cares? The typical case where a heavy theme castrate the story. Where a classic, unadorned narrative will have some bite on its own, and not by using tricks. I guess I don't need to list those really effective stories ;-)
Sorry, I can't keep watching this drama, even for the sake of criticizing and have fun to do it. Already, it annoys too much the viewers who like the drama. And even if sometimes I'm annoying, it's not my main goal. I just say what I think, and once it's done, I don't want to annoy people more. Wait, I have another message to post. I will do it without spoiler tag. Expect an harsh makjang line from the villain. ;-)

I'm struggling to understand why someone would like to watch content that is abusive and non-consensual...? Are…
World of the married have the best rating of kcable history.
And Penthouse is the best rating on public channel.
Think about that.

Title Someday or One Day Spoiler
I read all your comments lmao I agree the 1st episode was the most boring one, it felt like a slow paced slice…
Look at my comments in Hospital Playlist topic if you want to LOL!!
See you soon. TPs3 yaaaaaahhhhh.
For now, I'm watching Temptation of Wife, by the Penthouse writer. Her first breaking rating drama ! And finaly I understand a bit what was your feeling about fillers. Not really fillers, but there is definitively some slow down in the show. I think The Promise was better addictive in the first part, or instead, better fast-paced. But The promise was produced far later. ToW is an iconic drama, and certainly, some new dramas after this took lessons from this one. I'm ep42 for now. A loooonnng way to go to the end. I wonder how things will get nasty again. Now, it's inbetween. The situation is stable, after some many shocking events. It need to go crazy again. I'm sure it will be. ;-)

It's definitively very difficult for me to find Thailand dramas, I don't know how and where to get the content. But I would be happy to watch the dramas you propose. Look like very fun to watch.
As a script, all you say that is bad, I take it as even more good, it's what make the story exciting!
I'm so bored with consensual content, I like when it's go dirty, abusive or whatever.
I add this korean drama to the list : Miss Ripley. One of my all time favorite.
Oh! The daily drama "The Promise" too is great.
