I've never rated anything a 10. Even Ossan's Love, which I absolutely loved. 10 is too hard for something to achieve,…
I think I have only ever rated one drama a 10 (Kill Me, Heal Me) and admittedly probably should’ve rated it a 9, but I was being sentimental. I agree that very few dramas would ever merit a 10. Because 10 would literally be perfect. And that would be impossible.
I have found dramabeans.com to be a more accurate reviewer/recapper of dramas. Sometimes I will go the the final episode and read their review so as to decide to watch a drama or not. They aren’t influenced by pretty faces (idol actors) and review by story, acting, and other factors. I will also use the site and the viki.com as comparisons. I don’t have time in my life to waste on a crappy drama!

I don’t care how popular or cute the actor is. If the show sucks then I don’t want to watch it for just a pretty face!
It was not licensed in my region, so I'm not affected by this. Moreover, when I used a VPN to watch there, I hated…
I subscribe to both, but I liked how DramaFever subbed much quicker. Viki has a lot of content but it takes forever to get it all subbed, due to volunteers.
I’m heartbroken. I currently subscribe to Viki as well, but since it’s volunteer subbed I wonder how long it will last?!?! Any thoughts on other kdrama sites that sub in English?
