Unpopular Drama Opinions tagged by @brainlessoutofdate (My first tag, thank you! <3)
Well, this should be fun!
1. A Popular Drama that you didn’t like.
Uncontrollably Fond, High End Crush
2. A Popular drama that every one else seems to hate but you love.
Although I know a bunch of people did like it, I’m going to say Reply 1988. A lot of butt hurt about the main couple but this go round focused less on “The Husband” and more on the secondary characters and stories which I found very interesting.
3. A Love Triangle where the main character ended up with the person you did NOT want them to end up with (spoiler alert) or a couple that you don’t like.
Well that one is like shooting fish in a barrel...She’s Not Pretty would be my #1 main couple that made NO damn sense. Couples I don’t like: Let’s Drink, Hello! Miss, Warm and Cozy, Producer, The Greatest Marriage, Mr. Baek
4. A popular drama Genre that you hardly reach for.
Is medical a genre? Anything doctor-y is usually an automatic nope for me. I think it’s because I’ve never seen CPR preformed correctly and it really bugs me. Also, I don’t watch a ton of sagueks or typically any drama over 16-20 eps. I’m way too impatient. >.<
5. A popular or beloved character that you do not like.
6. A popular actor that you can’t seem to get into.
Lee Jong Suk although I couldn’t really tell you why. There’s actually a list of actors I can’t get into but I’m not sure they’re all that “popular”. lol
Made Up Bonus One: A popular actor’s hairstyle that you can’t seem to get into: Bowl cut hair parted in the middle and the male perm.
7. A popular actress that you can’t seem to get into.
Hmmmm...I can’t really think of any actresses per se...so, uh...Hwang Jung Eum when she's screaming and Park Shin Hye when she’s not being a bad ass.
8. A popular drama trope that you’re tired of seeing. (examples love triangles, evil mom, rich guy, etc.)
Okay, here we go *rubbing hands together*
The “I didn’t call you or contact you for YEARS because I would have wanted to come running back” bullshit, amnesia anything, person A who didn’t want person B until person C came along and now A is willing to kill C to be with B, any character forcing someone to be with them (thru threatening suicide or blackmail or fake pregnancy), any character stupid enough fall for those ruses, breaking up with the person you love by purposely being a dick, misunderstandings that could be cleared up by asking, “Did you actually say that?” and “What did you mean by that?”.
9. A popular drama that you have no interest in watching.
10. A popular drama adaptation that you prefer more than the original version.
I’m going to say Boys Over Flowers, mainly because it was my first drama, although Meteor Garden is the one I’ve rewatched the most. There was also a lot of good changes made in Fated to Love You.
