[Drama Chat] Essentially the most overrated drama, based on you

Since there isn’t any actual normative customary in opposition to which a drama may be “rated good” or”rated unhealthy,” and likewise as a result of this immediate ends with the phrase, “based on you,” it appears to me the listing being elicited right here would possibly extra precisely be described as:

“Dramas you didn’t like, however that everyone else appeared to.”

Name It Love, Goblin, and The Matchmakers all have rather a lot in frequent when it comes to overarching narrative construction. All three are centered round a slow-burn romance between a pair of lovers who actually ought not be in love for one motive or one other. Furthermore, all three have some type of open ending, with Goblin‘s being famously not solely open but additionally considerably pessimistic. I’m not right here to defend these three dramas, though I additionally did love all of them dearly, I’m simply noting that there is a sample that connects them that won’t for everybody.

It may be enjoyable to affix a gaggle of followers and it may be enjoyable to affix a gaggle of anti-fans. However the emotional influence of listening to reward will not be the identical as listening to disparagement.
