Title Meteor Garden
Currently at ep 18 and ima be honest... this drama has a lot of problems, I mean god damn! 🤦‍♂️and the…
I had a similar problem with Boys Over Flowers. I want to believe that people think these romance dramas are good because of the nostalgia because otherwise they are most definitely not good! The male lead is a red flag; an abusive and rude guy, and please consider that this version is an angel of light compared to the Korean version. The love triangle old trope where the female lead falls for the other guy doesn't help because is a literal waste of time, and the female lead herself not liking the male lead is just sad, and feels like the writers are forcing the main leads to be together when they don't really like each other... for me, it is an uncomfortable experience. Yes, the main leads get a free pass to most things, and we can forgive them because they are the leads, but here and all other versions, the main leads cross too many lines that should never be crossed.
