It’s Not Me…It’s You

Jk…but they can’t all speak to our soul.

What’s a K-drama that you dropped? No worries if it’s not for you—just don’t yuck on something that might be another Patreon’s yum ;)

I have hit pause on Yumi's Cell until season 2 drops at least

Megan Erickson

Dropped Suits despite liking Park Hyung-sik because it was too similar to the American version and didn’t have the qualities that make K-dramas different. Also dropped It’s Ok to Not Be Ok b/c I wasn’t feeling it at the time, but I may go back. Also dropped Yumi’s Cells - not because it wasn’t amazing (it was!) but because I was feeling pretty mentally and emotionally depleted by life in general at the time I was watching it and couldn’t face what I was expecting to happen in that season. I will go back to it though. More recently, I put a pause on The Crowned Clown. The storyline is very good and the acting is terrific, but it’s also pretty heavy going and I needed something lighter so I decided to watch I’m Not A Robot instead (loved it). Will go back to CC at some point.

Steer clear of Melancholia, NWABU and Something in the Rain as the angst FAR outweighs any romance joy. I’m realizing these weepers are hard for me to bear as well.

Lorna

I loved that series! I will admit I haven't watched it in years, but I love over the top.

Jodi Guira

I don't think I made it past episode 4. Unless the rest was the elder ladies doing their thing, I was bored.

Hannah

One Spring Night has been my one and only drop so far. The emotional turmoil in this drama really rubbed the wrong way and I just was not the biggest fan of the female lead either. I know it is a favorite amongst many but it just wasn’t for me. I hate super angsty romance dramas 😭

Kate

I had to drop Mouse because the twists and turns were just too stressful. I really like Lee Seung-gi but I have to take lots of breaks to make it through this one. It's also 24 episodes which is just A LOT.

Kourinthia H Burton

Even though I am a big Kim Seonho fan, I have to admit I only made it through the first few eps of Welcome to Waikiki 2. It was very slapstick comedy. But I may finish eventually. I should not have finished The King 2 Hearts because IMO it was over the top with a really maudlin, improbable villain but ... Lee Seung-gi was too hot not to finish it, I'm embarrassed to say. :-D

Antonina (Tonya)

I did make it that far and it was a highlight😍

Erin Miseyko

Erin, I hope you did not miss the after- workout scene of the shower/hot pool fight!! 😳🥴

I’m one of the few people it seems who loved K2. I found the romance swoony and the plot suspenseful. My only issue was with her choice to flee barefoot in a nightie but the rest I loved.

Lorna

I dropped K2 about half way through because I really could not stand the FL and refused to watch JCW end up with such a blah character.

Erin Miseyko

I’ve only dropped 2! (But some dramas I finished I almost wished I’d dropped, side eye 1% of something) - Encounter - too slow, too much Song Hye Kyo looking mournful, didn’t give me feels - Flower Boy Next Door - just didn’t feel the ML though I liked FL character I have more on hold which I might go back to - Run On and K2

Sarah @afternoonaasks

I dropped Vincenzo lol. -Megan

Megan Erickson

I've dropped Sisyphus 3 times now. It's just not happening. And I dropped Inspector and Joy because despite loving the 2 leads I got bored and there was no chemistry for me between them.

Elizabeth

And possibly blasphemous, but I had to turn off Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha before the last few episodes. The heroine went over my threshold for cutesy stuff 😂😭
