No I dont think K-Drama romance is dead! I think its just bad casting. Hotel Del Luna: hated who they casted as…
Thank you..!!!!¡!!!!!.…the fact that they casted that guy as the male lead has made me hated him so much i don't want to see any drama he starred in. He is too young and paired with a said 1000 years plus woman made him all the more boring with not an ounce of romance or affection. Even siblings affectionately interacted more than that. In fact, i hated HDL as a whole. I don't understand it's genre and i feel its like a tri cyc claiming to be a quad.
I completely understand where you are coming from. For me, i've gone back to my root. I started out with cdrama, then thai and i stumbled upon a kdrama gif. I check it out and it was the 1st kdrama for me. It was kill me, heal me and that was how my love for kdrama started. Its for those feel good moment but recently, i feel let down. I almost quit when i watched memories of Alhambra and some might hate me for this. I feel if i want stats on gaming, then it would have been perfect but i want romcom. This is why we watch or at least I watch kdrama for the love and sweet affection that leaps off the screen without the actors saying a word except looking at each other. I have since rewatched Healer, Temperature of love, what is wrong with secretary kim, Her private life, Heirs/inheritors. There are some understated once like something in the rain, one spring night, romance is a bonus book. Since i enjoyed Holo Love and looking forward to chocolate, i am hoping to go back to loving kdramas but at the moment, am rewatching my (YiShan) #Wei Wuxian and Lan Wanji. Can't stop loving them and they have turned me back to cdrama. Its not you at all but the new scripts being bandied around nowadays including paired actors who has more ego than chemistry. I hope the televison company also loosen their grip on too much censorship. If i take my time to want to watch a mature drama, i feel they should be allowed to express it to the fullest instead of making a 30 year old act like a virgin who has never heard the word when it comes to loving their significant other.
