well, that may be because the comments you've seen and I've seen are different. The example I gave was, "Same childhood connection trope bs again." From the comment, you can see that the person was complaining about having to watch a drama with a childhood connection trope despite previously not liking it. They not giving criticism like the ones you've mentioned "hard to buy if the romance on screen and the plot is not built properly or it feels like the main characters will get together just because they are childhood friends or something like that" As I said before I'm talking about those who obviously don't like the 'childhood to lovers trope' in dramas from the get-go and aren't interested but still forced themselves to watch such dramas from the start, and are constantly complaining about the same thing over again. Giving criticism about the drama (e.g. bad acting, messy script, unnecessary characters/scenes, etc) and complaining about the drama because of a trope someone hates from the beginning are 2 separate things.
JHI said you shouldn't watch ep 11-16 with your parents in the same room.🤨😏 LIKE BOY WHATTT! Why do I not believe him? LOL And apparently, it changed to an 18+ rating on Netflix in some countries. Not mine though.

venting out your disappointments about the drama and giving criticisms is normal and welcomed but I'm trying to point out that if someone doesn't like a specific trope no matter how many times they've watched it and now it's just no go trope for them and in this case "childhood friends to lovers" or "childhood connections" than they shouldn't start such a drama. Just by reading the synopsis of Love Next Door and other examples I gave above, it's an obvious trope that will be throughout the drama. Someone who doesn't like such tropes but still starts it and complains about it every time shouldn't have started it and ruin it for the ones who like such tropes or just the drama itself. Giving criticism about the drama (e.g. bad acting, messy script, unnecessary characters/scenes, etc) and complaining about the drama because of a trope someone hates from the beginning are 2 different things.
Exactly! I also honestly don't understand the logic behind such. It's not as if we are scarce of k-dramas, that…
exactly and with the wide variety of kdrama genres nowadays what's there to complain about a trope that doesn't interest you? If you do have some general criticism, yep say that.
So I was looking at some comments on X and MDL about Love Next Door. Most of the negative comments were people saying "Same childhood connection trope bs again" and so on. And I thought to myself if you don't like the childhood friends to lovers or childhood connections trope then, why are you starting this drama knowing fully what you going into? Like don't you read the synopsis, or do you just follow the crowd and then start complaining? Just don't start it. It's as easy as that. Why are you putting yourself through that and then complaining about every little detail and having arguments with people who enjoy it? It is not just about Love Next Door but almost all drama that has the smallest childhood connections scene. Of course in some dramas like What Wrong with Secretary Kim, it may be unnecessary but in KDrama like Love Next Door, Welcome to Samdalri, Our Beloved Summer, Doctor Slump, Pinocchio, Fight For My Way, Weightlifting Fairy Kim BokJoo, The Good Bad Mother and more, its absolutely necessary and part of the plotline.
I've seen BJW in so many shows and his food travels on YouTube. He's also known to be friends with BTS Jin, but I didn't take his food background seriously and thought he was just another celebrity chef who seems to have more fame than others. But watching this show (so far, seen up to episode 3), I realised how big he is and why. He is not just a chef by name but also by hard work, and he knows what he's doing.
I remember this was very popular and I think it was the most searched cdrama of 2018. I survived til the last ep of Ruyis Royal Love In The Palace (87 eps), i hope I survive this one as well, lol.
what a ride this show took us on. every character had their own significance they nailed their appearance and role, and their screentime was less but damn, they slayed it. they ate and left no crumbs. just give them all the awards. the show is 10/10
