I thought I was the only one dropping a few...Lol! A few at the first and others at the 2 or 3 ep...If I have…
oh, I hate melo too! Koreans tho, they are so good with mixing comedy with melo, I hate them hahaha They start with some sweet, lighthearted comedy, to lead to disaster by the end. It often happens in movies.

oh, Designated Survivor is one of my favorite dramas from 2019. I was not into it after first 2 or 3 episodes,…
Chicago Typewriter is one of my favorite dramas hahaha tho I hard time first few episode when it was airing. But now I can rewatch it and not feel bored at all.
Cheese in the trap tho... I feel so frustrated. They had such an interesting ML but they dropped him half way through the show to focus on SL... and there was nothing innovative about Inho...
Replying to All_In Jul 30, 2020
I refuse to be bored. I will drop and not feel bad at all; however, usually I will try to either skip to the parts…
I refuse to be bored < this! That's why I am willing to watch REALLY bad shows. Hate watch it extremely entertaining and frustration makes me feel alive haha but if a show is boring... drop. I cannot. I go crazy when I'm bored.
Replying to LoverofGoldenHour Jul 29, 2020
Wow. I don't have the heart to drop the dramas. I generally keep them on-hold and forget about them. That's my…
I was the same, my on hold was LONG. One day I dropped everything on there and now I have no problem dropping shows anymore hahaha
Replying to EngrPisces Jul 29, 2020
I feel you. New dramas are introduced like every month and here I am with a long list of Asian dramas waiting…
Skipping is good, but if I skip too much, I can't really rate it nor add it to a completed list. If I skipped over 50% of the scene... can I say I truly watched the show? hahaha + this year I'm writing reviews for everything I finished watching, so writing a review for a show where I skipped a lot would be impossible. BUT we all do what works for us, if it works for you: awesome :)
Replying to Rob1 Jul 29, 2020
The number one reason I drop is when the male lead is too big of an A-hole and I wouldn't wish him on anybody…
I think characters are the most important part of the show for me too. I am more willing to watch a mediocre plot with good characters over good plot with mediocre characters.
Replying to sunflower63 Jul 29, 2020
Your experience sounds rather similar to mine especially at the beginning (although I wasn't a teenager then)…
yeah, nothing worse than dropping the show half way through. Coz they were good enough for you to watch them for there 8 hours (or less/more depending on the number of episodes) but then disappointed you later...
Replying to SoultoSeoul Jul 29, 2020
I always give it six episodes usually I find I 3 isn't a fair shot. The plot is often being laid out the first…
that's a good system, and awesome if it works for you :)
Replying to randomisawesome Jul 28, 2020
I have a 3 episode rule. If I'm not hooked by episode 3, or if I start getting bored by episode 3 then its a drop…
fair rule. I have: "I don't feel it", whenever I feel like this drama ain't for me: I drop it hahaha

I'm trying to avoid dropping dramas during coronavirus because I'm trying to occupy my time at home. I, too, dropped…
oh, Designated Survivor is one of my favorite dramas from 2019. I was not into it after first 2 or 3 episodes, but later I got addicted! It has amazing set of characters. The Heirs tho... how did they get such a cast to do this show is beyond me hahaha
Replying to Wererabbit Jul 28, 2020
You know that feeling when the plot is hella boring but you're curious about one or two aspects so you keep going?…
yeah...I had it once with Love with Flaws. I was only interested in the plot line of the middle brother... so I watched only his scenes lol After the drama finished airing I have put it in dropped list tho, since I skipped good 80% of the whole show hahaha
Replying to Neko-chan Jul 28, 2020
I don't usually drop dramas, since I tend to choose them carefully. I know myself well enough to know what my…
Oh... my mood goes where the drama I watch goes. I might not be in the mood, but if the drama is good and my type I will start being in the mood in 5 minutes from starting watching it :)
And omg yes for the flashback. I am not main lead for a drama, I don't have amnesia, I don't need for them to remind me what happened few episodes ago lol
Replying to Callie Jul 28, 2020
I had to snicker at the "great build up but bad finish" implications. Dont you just hate that? Ive been on the…
As I said, the ending wasn't bad. Plot wise I loved what they did. I was just expecting... more of an epic last fighting scene since all the previous fighting scenes were shot in a beautiful way. I thought they will do something special by the end.
Replying to Chia6 Jul 28, 2020
Haha... My “Drop” list is also getting longer quick. MDL should have a “Skip episode” list LOL. I think…
yeah... well... I sometimes use notes to write if I skip episodes, but it;s usually for variety shows, if some eps are simply not subbed so I can't watch them hahaha
Replying to Brownie Jul 28, 2020
Aw thank you! I've never really seen myself as able to teach anybody something so this means a lot! ❤ You know…
When I decide to try again, I will for sure message you for recommendations hahaha

and I like the "less proper, more friendly and approachable" style tbh. It's easier and more entertaining to read :)
Brownie Jul 28, 2020
okay, I have to say I do learn some interesting stuff from your articles. + I love your writing style. It feels like you are talking to me, and not just writing the info you want to share. It's friendly and entertaining! :D

I feel like I should give lakorns one more chance... but this will have to wait until I finish (or drop again) Nirvana in Fire hahaha
Replying to Xia Jul 28, 2020
Hahaha, i already entered the K-drama world in 2018 with the mindset of "drop what you're not enjoying", because…
oh... I have more problem dropping some unpopular dramas than the popular ones. The hype kills all the joy I might have had at first. I have this problem right now with It's okay to not be okay hahaha
Replying to Parthivi Jul 28, 2020
Good article. After watching 50 or so dramas over the past 5 years, I have understood the importance of dropping…
oh yeah, I think a lot of people have problems with many dramas passed 12 episode and that's when they find them the most boring hahaha the 2nd half is often the problem :)
Thank you for enjoying my article too :D
Replying to Sarangay Jul 28, 2020
I was someone who didn't like to drop dramas at all, but much like yourself I've grown up, started University…
I wish I was less impulsive with my dropping. I just don;t feel it, I drop without putting much thought into it tbh.

Romance is a bonus book was not really a good show, but I did enjoy most of the side characters a lot. The smile has left your eyes tho... barely finished... even tho I truly LOVED the whole cast
Replying to sandra Jul 28, 2020
i just dropped a drama, i tried hard, made it to ep 3
Ep 3 is quite far compared to me dropping shows 10 minutes in 1st ep hahaha
