Love the article and the work you put. I have to say I never thought of looking at the ratio of Dropped to Completed and the "insignificant" effect to the overall rating. I think many are emotional because of that special feeling they get from a beloved or hated drama -for that matter. I say it rarely bothers me when people down rate or rate early because I do think it evens out a the end. however, I do get annoyed when people rate before the drama even starts (it evens out, still annoying). To me more than rating the story is more of a deterrent or a propellant to start a drama. I tend to complete before I score, just to be fair to the drama, and I rarely vote when I drop them. I don't think I ever fought over a score on MDL, Few times I got disappointed when starting one with low rating to realize it's actually good (for my taste) and tried to encourage others to watch. I agree that MDL is a personal space to document what I watch and my feelings and thoughts towards them. Rating s are subjective and it's ok, we all have different opinions of what's good. The value to me is how much I enjoyed watching something and the take away whether it's thought provoking, feel-good, a good cry, a good laugh, a thrill...
Overall good thriller. I enjoyed all the cases and saw value and purpose to push the story forward. The ending was subdued compared to the other episodes (anti climatic if you will? but not bad). It's not an AMAZING drama but it's good enough to keep you watching. Oh and compared to other comments I had no sympathy what so ever for the killer... I would've prefered he'd lived a prisoner of his mind w/ an unfulfilled desire to kil
I'm enjoying this so far HOWEVER there are a lot of mistakes that I would not expect in a 2017 Korean drama. Camera shadows, missed make-up, wrong cuts etc
ep 6 had me cracking up. This drama is a weekly dose of happiness. Also I'm glad we're getting to look more into SaRa and she's not the evil character as I initially thought. I'm loving her interactions with Eun Ho hope we see more of them.
I loved this drama! Great story, good over the top comedy to remedy the heavy stuff. Good ,mystery and lovely relationships. Easily became a favorite of mine. Totally recommended!
Saw someone recommending this and I really liked the 1st ep. It has a very melancholic feeling masked by comedy that draws out pain rather than joy T.T
this drama has the hyped-up-syndrome. too many people were expecting too much and compare it too much instead…
On the agree bandwagon. Now that I've watched the first 2ep, I do think it stands on its own. The idea of changing might be the same as the movie (which I loved), but it carries itself out very well and the how it's presented is definitely different in a good way.
half way through the ep1 and so far I LOVE Han Se Gye's personality and honesty. Hopefully it'll be her merritt throughout. On the flip side, so far, I'm not liking LMK acting ;/
