Official Kdrama Poll Round 1
You can Select more than one answer.
I will take the shows with the top votes for the following poll....THIS IS A LOT OF SHOWS lol.....
So don't point fingers at me...lol point at your peers for how they vote...lol
I avoided shows that were over 20 episodes...21, 22 is another story...but def not 2 seasons and 30+ episodes lol...
Just want to say the time for feedback and suggestions is respectfully not needed on this particular post. It was already collected on a previous post
Only reason I say that is because I’m already getting the same feedback on the previous post and it’s just way too much in my inbox
But I made sure to ask for feedback before making the poll and if you can tell I added two shows that were not previously
Comments (169)
1. kill me heal me 2. our beloved summer 3. hotel waikiki 4. alchemy of soul season 1 n 2 5. tale of the nine tailed 6. coffee prince
They just added Eve on Netflix it has the Female Lead from Its Okay to Not be Okay Seo Yea-Ji and it was really good.
I highly recommend "Welcome to Waikiki" and "Mouse" <3
25 21 or mr sunshine pls i beg
Vote for Mr Sunshine guys pleaseeeeee
I just can’t believe mr sunshine is the last in the poll, this is in the top 10 netflix shows also one of the high rated kdramas, why is it so underrated among english speaking communities 😭😭
I have no idea, it's the best show ever!
I am buying the subscription if it is mr sunshine or 2521😭😭 i was planning to rewatch it , it is better with your reactions🔥🥹 pls pls
It has.t
If you want to go with fantasy, mysteries vibes, you can go with Hotel Del Luna and While You Were Sleeping. If you want to go with more slice of life and comedy go for Reply 1988 (should prepare tissues for some tears though) PS. Hotel Del Luna also has an amazing cinematography.
2524 is sooo good. The female MC has a really great personality!!
when is the second round starting?
PLEASE REACT KDRAMA "MY SWEET MOBSTER"
I just wanna see 25 21 reaction plssss
homecha is good but while you were sleeping is GOD TIER pls vote
It has everything friendship,love, revenge, romance ,heartbreaks I hope one day you'll watch this masterpiece ❤️
2521 I feel the best k drama I have watched so far
Like someone said, just watch the trailer of Memories of the Alhambra, it's really good. You should also watch W:Two Worlds
While you were sleeping is really good. Mr sunshine and sky castle too
WYWS is the PRIORITY!! You just need 3 minute from the FIRST OF EP TO GET HOOKED! The rest like HomeCha can be later 🙌🏼🤙🏼🫶🏼
They are all decent (honestly, top tier dramas)! They were once on the top ratings (some still are) and I'm excited to watch it with you guys. As this is the first poll, what about you guys make a short reaction video of trailers of the drama for Poll Round 2? That way, you guys can get some glimpse of the dramas are about and we, viewers, can also remember (learn) the dramas while hear your first thoughts on these dramas! :)) Thanks for the poll!
Sky castle is just soooo good ??
Just to remind you guys, this is only the first poll so there will be more polls after this. I don't know how many dramas will come next, so I hope you guys will vote again later. I like all the top 6 in this poll, and I'm excited for whatever wins, although I really hope 2521 wins 🤣😂
If one day you guys react to 2521 it would be one of the best things ever.
Can’t believe the GOD tier K-drama like WYWS is not even in top 3 😭😭 what is this 😭😭
I hope nobody minds, just an honest question here. I watched and enjoyed Hometown Cha Cha Cha. It's a chill, comfort drama, and maybe I need a rewatch, but is this really a reaction type of show? I always thought it's more of "watch it on your own" type of thing. Or is it because of the ML? I know the actor has a big fanbase. Just genuinely curious.
It is worth a reaction in my opinion 🥰like when it was still airing, several channels on yt also reacted on them and it was sooo fuun to watch. It was so fun to see people reacting on how they fell in love, how the trauma was processed, how people in the show viewed life and gave life lessons too. It had high ratings and a lot of hype in 2021 not just because of kim seonho and shin minah but bc the storyline was SOOO good and all the actors (which are mostly from the theater) are also soo good. The ending is one of the best as well in a way that it was wrapped up soo well + it gave us the classic romcom trope which people have been craving for 🥰❤️ Kim seonho has a lot of fans now but he was not that soo popular before homcha (although there was Startup) Most of the fans just started after homcha based on my observation in twitter back then
Just watch the trailer of Memories of Alhambra, you'll be shocked at how amazing is it.
The fact shows like Mr Sunshine, While you were sleeping, Legend of the blue sea, Reply 1988, Signal, 2521 are that down the list 💀 the disrespect.
Just remove the top 3 winning shows on this poll then all is fine 🤣
Since I'd never be able to say it again so I'll say it here. Please consider shows like Memories of Alhambra, Extraordinary You, Kill me heal me, The Heirs, My Love from Star, Rooftop Prince, Queen In Hyun's Man, Angel's Last Mission Love, City Hunter, Healer, The K2, Touch your heart, Tale of the nine tailed season 1 and 2, While you were sleeping, Mr Sunshine, Chicago Typewriter, 30 but seventeen, Dream High, Hi! School Love On, School 2015, Hello Monster, Blood, Birth of a beauty, etc.
School 2013 is still my fav from the saga
Can you guys just add 2012-2016 dramas? I swear those were the best dramas especially 2016 is considered a golden year for Kdramas.
How the heck is Hometown Cha Cha winning?
Hometown Cha Cha Cha! Let's goooo! One of my comfort shows🥰
Hometown Cha Cha Cha is my comfort kdrama 💗 While You Were Sleeping, Signal and Twenty Five Twenty One are also good! 🔥 Not a fan of WWWSK though
But Mr. Sunshinee!!!!!
RIP😢
I'm sorry guys but why is WWWSK winning the poll? 😭😭 This is good if you're just starting with kdramas. But after watching multiple, it's honestly mid and cringeyyyy😭😭😭
If anyone is unfamiliar with the top prospects here are the trailers: Hometown Cha Cha Cha: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z66fazyp3-M What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDGfWN36q5o Hotel Del Luna: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMWpcJ_n3_o While You Were Sleeping: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_rEZV3n3mk Twenty Five Twenty One: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBCXHOskDQ4 There’s also an unofficial trailer for healer, but it’s over 3 minutes long and reveals a lot of major plot points. The official trailer is 30 seconds of parkour.
Nah man cha cha is a cringe show for me i mean idk if u guys will like it, but its just full of romance (the couple mostly act cute or aegyo) wichies that the cringe part for me, with little bit of twist at the end, i prefer hotel de luna tho even its a romcom too but it has alot of plot twist, or 2521 also a good drama
Hometown cha cha cha is winning? wtf Whats up with all these dramas coming completely out of left field lately? I know that drama has it's fanbase but i didn't think it was very popular generally
It hasn't won anything yet, there should be another poll later where we need to pick one winner if this is like the last poll.
Wow cha cha making comeback gonna be good drama for them if it wins countryside of korea
Hometown cha cha cha taking 1st place damn! But it woud be cool if they started 'Start up' first tho
wait why? do they take place in the same universe?
woah hometown cha cha cha slowly coming back up the ladder and overtaking while you were sleeping and hotel del luna, hoping it wins
Reply 1988 and 2525 losing to WWWSK is wild
I know right!
WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING PLEASEEEEE
Mr Sunshine is a historical drama, takes place during at the end of Korea's time is a monarchy. It's definitely a romance drama, but the plot is pushed forward by our complex characters, who are from multiple ethnicities and vastly different classes. The cinematography is also very beautiful. It's an artwork of a show in both writing and visuals you won't regret watching this.
Exactly! Its a masterpiece!!!!!!! 💯
Hotel DeLuna is a romcom that takes place in a supernatural world, with a touch of historical as well. The female lead is played by the singer-actress IU, and the plot immediately makes her the toxic-not-toxic female lead type you guys like.
I was hoping you would add My Dearest too 😔
Hi! I was wondering if you all decided if you are going to be watching/making reaction videos on Sweet Home season 3 or if you are ending the reactions at season 2.
Please not secretary kim
Descendants of the sun was winning on another poll 😭
while you were sleeping and Healer 😩
anything but WWWSK would be fine i guess, though reply 1988 and 2521 are my absolute favorites
can't believe WWWSK is winning 🧍♀️ whatttt
Kim Soo Hyun's lead drama, "The Moon Embracing the Sun" please~ https://youtu.be/6XIc2RKcdyM?si=uCW3PyPn7DKfofi6
Homcha and wyws LET'S GOOOOOO
While you were sleeping was definitely the best on this one. Too many plot twist and most important you ain't bored with it.
Yes! The plot and the premise of the show is so good
Vote for reply 1988 too !!! The ones winning are cliché and boring dramas it’s the same plot repeating
Honestly am surprised you guys didn't add My Mister to the list. Please react to it,it's actually one of the best kdrama
Yeah, My Mister dethroned all of these on the list
Hotel Del Luna please it's really good you should watch it
All are great options. However re what's wrong with secretary kim and Descendants of the sun reviews vary greatly (to be fair I have not watched them so I cannot judge). Re the other options (the majority of which I watched apart from hometown chacha, Mr sunshine and sky castle ) reviews are more consistent.
If they end up reacting to DOTS and WWWSK at the same time, its literally gonna be cringe overload for them. Both shows r very 1 dimensional, "safe" plot with not a lot going on and have tons of "long pause gaze" scenes that they mentioned they didnt like. Was really hoping Reply 1988, Healer or Signal wins. WYWS, Homecha and 2521 are not bad picks either.
i think DOTS is a lot better than WWWSK tho lol, it's not just a cheesy love story, but the plot is also very well written
While You Were Sleeping!!!
We already had a Park Seojoon kdrama, can we have something different? Please?
MOUSE 2020 is so good, and it is 20 not over it, so please add it to poll🙏🙏 It is so worth it🙌🏻
i cant believe WWWSK is winning out of these other great selections
Yea BP was great but office romance is just so washed out for me i was looking forward to seeing them react to a drama with a new plot/tropes.
I've watched all of them and hometown cha cha cha, 25-21, and while you were sleeping are definitely the best pick out of them that you guys will enjoy. What's wrong with secretary Kim is also good too but I don't consider as worthy winning the poll among those other better dramas. But i guess because of the cast and it's popularity people tend to choose that one more.
Agreed
WWWSK is a must watch. Waiting for this!
Healer for sure
Never realized “Reply 1988” is underrated Gem.I mean it should be top of the list.
ppl really like romance lol
Sky Castle has no boring episodes btw. It's just as entertaining as Reply 1988.
I'm surprised My Mister isn't on the list. Literally beats everything on the list. Guess yall don't like depressing shii.
2521!!! 😫 Well… let’s just get wwwsk out of the way I guess and then hopefully move on to better more interesting dramas
Reply 1988 or Healer
Most of these people voted for and want yall to do these cheesy and cringey romance Kdramas that can't even match the perfection of Crash Landing. My suggestion, if yall wanna laugh yall asses off, pick Reply 1988.
Yeah tbh wwwsk is too cringe for me idk 😭
Ohh I hope MY LOVE FROM THE STAR on the next kdrama poll... It's such a great show! so plz consider about it:) and Hotel del Luna, Reply 1988 and Healer are great shows to react I think
My love from the star is overlooked by everyone
Whats wrong what secratery Kim is an ok kdrama but kinda a boring one its good when you haven't seen many good kdramas so your expectations are low but since y'all have watched many good and god tier k dramas so this will be very boring for you guys also not as enticing. Compared to all the other shows on this list the difference is big any other show on the list is better than WWWSK
wow hometown cha cha cha really steals the top 3 from while you were sleeping , i hope it wins
hometown cha cha cha needs to be seen! it’s a beautiful experience
MR SUNSHINE one day please !🙂
The ones that I like are top 4 in votes 🤣💕
still hoping they'll react 2521 someday
while you were sleeping is good tooo
not what's wrong with secretary kim currently winning the poll 😭
we need legend of the blue sea reaction, the classic!
I haven't seen all of these yet but for the ones I have, 2521, hometown cha cha cha and while you were sleeping are my top 3. I remember so many scenes from these shows and they're all great. They're ones i'd always be searching up to see if anyone reacted to it and wyws put me on to Jung Hae in🤭. I watched 2521 more recently and I was kinda sad to watch the last ep because it truly meant I finished the show, I loved it that much. I also really enjoyed Signal, it was a nice switch in what I'd usually see in Kdramas. Even if they don't win soon, I hope I can see your reactions to these!😁
Ooh so many good choices! I've picked all the classics (WWWSK, WYWS, HDL, 2521, LOTBS, Healer)
Vote for Legend Of The Blue Sea, I haven't seen any reactors react to this masterpiece. It's time for it to become known to them.
I am so happy that a decade old drama like Healer can keep up with these newer dramas in popularity. A testament to their loyal fanbase. However their 20 episodes long duration will probably be one of the consideration not to be picked by Lee. Editing cost for those 20 episodes versus the Revenue...will it give good ROI...🙂
Hello. Its on the poll. So i will do it if it wins. But yes i do prefer shorter series
Bruh beyond evil just can’t catch a break do people just not like it or is it not as popular as I thought it was 😭
it's not great tbh. i'm not sure why everyone here is such a die hard fan of it. maybe you could tell me what about it you like so much? the writing is decent when it comes to the mystery, but the interactions between the leads is just juvenile. it's a lot of finger pointing, a soft resolution, then more finger pointing. that doesn't make for great storytelling or writing. the actors are great, but the directing and writing just take the show from a 9 to a 6 at best.
Y’all gotta vote for 2521
yessss, i really hope they'll react 2521 someday
25 21 one day 🥹
I know WWWSK is leading the polls rn and im fine with that, but plss lets push the Twenty-Five Twenty-One agenda
yessssss 2521 plss
i think you need to watch start up first before hometown cha cha cha, but still i pick hometown cha cha cha on this poll
While you were sleeping is goated. What's wrong with secretary Kim is winning the polls but that show is more about the characters, the story doesn't matter and tbh we've already seen those leads quite a lot on this channel.
he'll run out of shows with them eventually. then we can move on
Mr. Sunshine is an absolute masterpiece, still the best show I ever watched!
Whats wrong with secretary kim!!
I pick “What’s wrong with Secretary Kim” because… 1.I love it n so does many many others 2. Director and yourself seem to love Professional Women(powerful females) in kdramas so that’s my other reason. My second option would have been Hotel de Luna with another badass female lead
It's too depressing for them to handle
I would like them to watch a mystery or crime drama. Had enough of rom coms. Signal!
WWWSK isn't a bad show but based on things they've said, I doubt they'd like it idkkk
Nah let’s be honest they would love it, it’s not even my favorite I’m rooting for healer.
What's wrong with secretary Kim is good and so is healer
WWWSK is a romcom loved by many viewers. However, I think the men will enjoy Healer more story wise.
I chose 1988 even though all are great it's really comforting
Omg how can you have all these good dramas in one poll!! I'm conflicted 😭 I ended up voting for reply 88 because it's the most wholesome slice of life/family kdrama you will ever watch. It doesn't have much votes tho TT
you can vote for multiple...not sure why you were conflicted
While you where sleeping is good to
While you were sleeping ❤️❤️❤️
Mr Sunshine 🥵🥹
Hope Signal winn season 2 is comingsoon But i really like mr sunshine & hometown cha
While you were sleeping ❤️❤️❤️
What happened to descendants of the sun??? I remember the drama was winning in a vote
He reacts to 2 dramas, so it's Descendants of the sun and then another one which is the purpose of this poll.
Signal is one of my favorites, suspense, action, thriller, you guys need to give it a chance.
What’s wrong with Secretary Kim wasn’t awful, but I feel like there are better options on the poll. It’s based of what the majority wants so I’m not mad at it, just make sure y’all vote 🤷🏾♀️
100%
The legend of the blue sea is so good 😭😭
Healer pleaseeee! btw, what happened to the Descendants of the sun?
It’s successfully won. And will be replacing one of the shows ending. Note that two dramas are ending in the same week
Justice for Mr SUNSHINE 😢
Bros While You Were Sleeping is one of the best K-drama of all time 🥲
+1‼️‼️‼️
wheres mouse at, i havent seen any of these LOL
YES!!!!
Reply 1988🥹🥹
It seems like rom-coms will always beat out suspense shows
Yea it's a little disappointing I get it tho
I'm voting for healer just to see where it lands on their list, if it happens to win.
Healer..😭😭😭😭plz I’m begging
It's such a classic can't wait to rewatch it
What’s wrong with secretary Kim let’s get it 🔥 it’s the same ML as Itaewon class!
Same FL from Marry my husband
2521 Gang 💪💪
I still think you need to see Start Up before cha-cha-cha
Start up is so good I wanna re-watch
Please , vote while we were sleeping if your pick is too far behind... Im doing campaign yet again lmaoo. Donate votes !! One day ill give you the favor back, when my pick will be too far behind to win.
+1
I am not giving up on Healer. lol Also voted for Reply 1988 and Hometown ChaChaCha
ME WITH HEALER FR. I’ve been recommending it Ever since the beginning
I hope healer wins 😭😭
While You Were Sleeping! One of my all-time favorites.
As always, I will fruitlessly vote for Healer. One of these days we'll get them, boys. I'd also enjoy most of these, aside from Reply 1988 - sorry to the fans, I know it is or was loved by many but the Reply series is not it for me.
the worst of the three tbh, but everyone always recs it. i honestly don't understand
What’s wrong sec kim is too cheesy 😬😬😬😬
It's always cheesy ones with the most votes
Has anyone else watched D.P? They should definetly watch that
Yes. All seasons and they were good. Another one that's equally good is Military Prosecutor Doberman. I think its on Netflix now.
anyone who doesn’t vote for 2521.. count your days 🫵🏻‼️😔
ok
