Petty Reasons To Drop Drama List

I have no qualm in dropping dramas. I have watched many dramas, I have dropped many more. I don't want to pretend I am the most credible and seasoned drama fan to make review or comment about drama. Watching drama should be kept fun, light and simple. I know I got the tendency to over think a drama, but deep down inside I just want to watch, hang out, chill, and have fun. So these are the list of some petty, shallow, non sensical reasons for me to drop drama. None of these dramas, I have watched till the last episode. I have no right to give them over all rating. But I have no regret, no guilty feeling, or making any attempt to pick them up again. So here they are (will be updated)...

Feeling

Country: South Korea

Released Year: 1994

Attempted episode: 4 episodes 

Genre: Romance, drama

Actors: Lee Jung-jae

Petty reason:

I tried to watch it long time ago. Twice. Because I just watched Ilmare which I adore. And Javabeans and Girlfriday were so gushing over this drama. They even made an effort to sub this drama for free. How could I resist the temptation? But guess what the reason I dropped the drama after episode 4? Lee Jung-jae's pimples.....

I know I get used to with today flawless actors' face. Camera filter, computer editing program, up to date make up concealer and foundation,  modern dermatologist technique do help. But..... I dont ask for perfection like show skin with no pores (seriously guys) or actors who always, like ALWAYS show flawless skin and always put on make up. If they just live their daily activities like grocery shopping, going to the gym, attending concert as audience, it is okay with pimples and all but this is a recorded drama, people will see it in years from the day it is made sooo... Show some effort. 

Forecasting Love and Weather 

Country: South Korea

Released Year: 2022

Attempted episode: 12 episodes 

Genre: Romance Comedy

Actors: Song kang, Park Min-young

Petty reason:

The OTP get back together again. As you know, one of my favorite drama tropes is couple reunion, so this is the 1st time, I want so much the OTP to break up. Because they are so incompatible, because he is so childish. Age is not the reason to be childish in a mature relationship. This is why I don't fancy noona romance drama, it always blames the age for the reason the male lead's right to be childish and whiney. Dude grow up! You know what is scarier than parents' disapproval? Viewers' disapproval. 😂

If Paris Downcast 

Country: China
Released Year: 2018
Attempted episode: 2 episodes 
Genre: Romance, melodrama
Actors: Zhang Han, Adi Kan

Petty reason:

Please put restrain to Zhang Han's influence in deciding his clothing in his dramas. At first I thought it was the fault of his cordie or the PD but no it is him. After this drama, I recalled all his dramas and in all he used this gaudy, atrocious, bad fashion clothing. Who insert the idea into him that he has good fashion sense? God forbid. 

Just Between Lovers
Country: South Korea
Released Year: 2017
Attempted episode: 3 episodes
Genre: Romance, Melodrama
Actors: Junho, Won Jinah
Petty reason:

Junho's hairstyle! What the fuck off the hairstylist thinking? I tried 3 times, and never get through 3 eps. His hair is just too distracting. 

Oh My General

Country: China
Released Year: 2017
Attempted episode: 6 episodes 
Genre: Historical fiction, Romance
Actors: Ma Sichun, Peter Sheng

Petty reason:

Is the PD color blind?? The costume's colors are so bad, making the costumes look cheap. The idea about gender reverse and ML that is meek and flowery is great, but I have to safe my vision from the insult. Top priority. 

Sunbae Don't Put On That Lipstick

Country: South Korea
Released Year: 2021
Attempted episode: 1 episodes
Genre: Workplace romance
Actors: Won Jinah, Rowoon
Petty reason:

The title. Dude what a title, so condescending. I only watched ep 1, I didn't like it. Then planning to pick it up after reading the review, and guess what the title justified the story. My only fault was thinking it would be other wise. 

The King: Eternal Monarch

Country: South Korea

Released Year: 2019

Attempted episode: 4 episodes 

Genre: Romance, Fantasy

Actors: Lee Min-ho, Kim Go-eun

Petty reason:

There is a comment from the female lead about the possibility earth is flat.... Me: speechless. This drama sells itself as smart, fantasy, sci-fi fiction drama then they drop the line. I just can't. They can violate other physic laws out there, but not this basic one. You know the implication of theory the earth is flat? There're no cell phone, no microwave, no radio, no satellite, no internet, no Netflix, etc because there will be no quantum mechanic. Please look physic science advisor before producing drama exploit any physic laws. And how many time Kim Go-eun has to tie her hair every time she is upset, working on something, or anything. Please stop that or just cut your hair. Jeez.  

Run On

Country: South Korea

Released Year: 2019

Attempted episode: 4 episodes 

Genre: Romance

Actors: Im Shi-wan, Shin Se-kyung

Petty reason:

The drama that has a title Run On, and ML who is a runner. He doesn't do enough running and live up the philosophy behind why running is so deliberating. Hah.
