Since I am also not a big action fan either and yet I am considering this drama, could you tell me what aspects…
I want to start it for JCW too! I have no problem with violence, just not my cup of tea most of the time... It takes something more than just action to grab my attention. Hopefully, like you said, the story and the complexity of his character (or any other character's) are the factors that will keep me watching. Assuming I do start the drama soon, like I'm planning to!
The (probably only) reason I want to watch this is because a friend of mine who doesn't even watch dramas watched it and I just can't miss the chance of a lifetime to discuss a show with her TT
The steps I followed and recommend: 1. Wait till the Drama ends. 2. Go to MDL page to check out reactions 3. See 1st review: 10/10 and 2nd review: 3.5/10. 4. Confusion 5. Profit
haha you get it... For me it happens to most of them. It has to be truly phenomenal to remember it clearly (or watch it multiple times), which happens rarely. At best case I'll remember parts of it, but never the whole drama. My theory is that it's because we watch too many shows and our brain removes a lot to save space for the new ones hahahaha
I'll give you some examples I've experienced, because I'm bored at work rn so why not? xD
I watched Kingdom when it was first released and then after S2 was released (which wasn't even that later) I didn't remember anything. I didn't remember what happened in the first season, who most characters were... I ended up having a friend trying to recap S1 for me and I watched S2 but it just wasn't that enjoyable, because I was confused for most of it, trying to remember where I've seen a character before or what previous incident someone is talking about etc.
Another example is me watching Uncanny Counter and Taxi Driver... I remember really liking those dramas. Now they both have a second season, but I haven't watched any of them because I know it'll be the same as what happened with Kingdom. That saddens me a lot, especially for Taxi Driver, as I remember having a REALLY good time watching that show and I hear S2 is equally good (if not better) 😞
I suffer by...... drama alzheimers lol. There's no way I'll remember what happened in the first season by the time the second season comes. I've been through it a lot, watching a drama and waiting happy and excited for another season, but by the time it airs I don't remember what happened in the first. I barely remember the characters or the plot and that certainly ruins my experience, as you can probably imagine! Try watching a show but you don't remember anything that happened so far. Ouch!
