Korean Drama That I Abandoned Halfway

Korean Drama That I Abandoned Halfway | Assalamualaikum and hello everyone! I hope you are doing great. As some of you might know, I am a fan of Korean drama. In this post I would like to share with you guys some of my abandoned drama list. Normally they started so well and left me eager for the next episodes, but apparently they lost their track- the plot become draggy and the ship is about to drown. So yeah, I left it halfway. Some of them I continue after few months and some of them I just abandoned like a wrecking ship.
Some of my abandoned list that I get overly excited at the beginning;
- Descendant Of The Sun
- The Heirs
- Pinocchio
- Full House Take 2
- Scent of Women
- Entertainer
- That Winter The Wind Blows
- Heartstrings
Why I Abandoned These Korean Drama Halfway?
Obviously because of the draggy plot
Good drama may turn into a big waste of time drama if the writer fails to keep on track and end the drama nicely. I tend to anticipated drama with a good starts. But lost interest halfway watching it. I like fast-nice written drama. I am ready to watch 60 episodes of drama if the plot and acting is dayum great! Look at Six Flying Dragons, this is such a nicely written drama without dragging plots.

I am not so fancy one of the leads
This might happen if I don't fancy one of the leads actor/ss. I probably watching it at first because of the trailer or just-want-to-check-it-out. If the drama become draggy then definitely I will dump it without second thoughts. But I happen to finished dramas that I hate the lead actress such as The Time Between Dog and Wolf because it have a great plot and I like Lee Jun Ki acting despite of hating the heroine. So after all, the plot matters the most to me.
The drama is becoming too drama/ cheesy
I know everything is possible in a world named korean drama land. Even when the heroine is so poor to the extend that they cannot afford a meal, but they managed to have a nice wardrobe! Dayum nice! & expenses too! -what Christian Laboutine shoes? They also have the newest smartphone. I is jelly~~ But still I can tolerate this unrealness. But if the plot becoming too cheesy I might abandoned it. Don't be shocked if I tell you that I never finished DOTS until now. Maybe when I feel like to watch I will finish it. 4-5 episodes to go!
Too cliche
Even though there are many cliche drama in korean dramaland but if they have one or more of the reason above plus the drama is too cliche then it has high probability to be abandoned halfway.
I am too busy and forgot about it
Sometime I got too busy with works and others until I forgot to watch it. When the episodes I left increased and more interesting new drama is airing, I just forgot the one I hold and start watching new drama.hahaha.
Btw, I am so in love with pilot episode of drama W, its so different , so new, so fresh !
Do you also abandoned drama halfway or you will always finish it no matter what? Leave me your comment bellow.
Thank You For Reading This Post ! Komen lah sikit =)

DeleteSemua yang awak tak habis tengok, saya habis tengok kecuali Full House Take Two dan Entertainer. Hee.
ReplyDeleteMostly kalau habis tengok sebab pelakonnya. Dan kadang-kadang jalan cerita walaupun cliche kalau pelakon best mesti tengok. Contohnya, The Heirs. Haha. Walaupun annoying dengan jalan cerita ringan pasal kisah cinta budak sekolah, masih semangat tengok hingga ke akhir. Hee.

DeleteSaya dah banyak drama tengok halfway, tak ingat ape dah 😅 mostly because cite lama2 jd bosan, tak minat hero or heroin dia, asyik cinta je so cliche sometimes. Even drama W ni pun tgk halfway sbb tak suka plot die. Maybe korean kena ade drama seram or ade hantu baru saya suka kot
ReplyDeletekorean movie yg horror byk jugak but kalau drama xla sangat.. kalau horror pn x takut sgt mcm drama so ji sub's (lupa nama) & skg yg tgh tayang bring it on ghost!
Deletepeminat k-drama jugak, tapi minat CP ni lebih kurang macam awak jugak kot...tapi bila CP dah start tengok, macam mana bosan pun CP akan habiskan jugak drama tu, tapi mungkin akan skip certain2 part, hahaha, tu la untungnya bila dah ada kemudahan menonton online or download kan, boleh skip ikut suka hati....sekarang CP tengah tengok Doctors and lets fight ghost....CP pun ada buat review pasal tu in scheduled entry...hahaha, akan autopost soon,,cekidout...
