It's a romcom. It's gonna be a factory of recycled tropes. Nothing new here, all romcoms do it. Business Proposal…
So you think BP tropes were very good without knowing why it's good. Got it.
I didn't question why you hate this drama, I questioned why you think BP, an equally tropey drama did trope better. So I can understand where you're coming from. And no I don't think this drama is great, it's defo 8/10 at best but that's because like BP it's a very tropey show that has nothing unique to offer. Both of these dramas are fun watch but are generic as they come romcoms.

You're cherrypicking. "it was because she had pushed him and he dragged her down" - literally exists in most romcoms in Kdrama. "there was colour added which made it visually interesting" - this is completely subjective and doesn't even make sense because adding "colours" doesn't make it less tropey.
Okay this might seem a bit controversial... but idk something about this drama seems a bit off. Like, I know it…

This user always loves to exaggerate doesn't she? Neither of these dramas are breaking records. The roof for breaking record for See You In My 19th Life is especially high since it airs on the BEST timeslot tvN has. Sat-Sun 9:20PM is the golden timeslot for tvN and for the 4 episode, it has only attracted an average of 1.4mil viewers, which is not very high.
for context, does it means good or bad to get 5% or 10% or like 15%?I saw new drama called revenant also got 10%
Korean dramas air on Free channels (SBS, KBS and MBC) or paid cable channels (OCN, tvN, jtbc, MBN, ENA, TV Chosun).
A drama is considered a hit for a free channel if it hits ~14-15% ratings because since these channels are free, almost every TV in SK has access to them. In comparison, for paid cable channels, a drama is considered a hit if it lands a viewership of 8-9% or higher since these channels aren't accessible by everyone, they usually generate lower viewership on average.
Jackson Yee is pretty good too. Neither of them are to be found on this list
It's just a list that doesn't take acting talent into account and only looks and popularity. Some of the top 10 are average actors at best. Like you'd have to know nothing about acting to believe the likes of YY and DW are top 10 caliber actors.
The viewership for this drama is going downhill. It do NOT blame people. The writer fucked it up BIG time. Like we're at ep 63 (tonight) and we still have seen ZERO romantic tension between the two leads, the ex-wife is like wherever the fuck, we have a terribly written HR clinging to KS storyline and the Joohyuk farce and like ZERO progress in the overall story. They need to fire this writer and replace them ASAP tbh because it's obv they dk wtf they're doing anymore.
