Kdrama Romance Fatigue

Hello, I found this post after your recent post about Lovely Runner. I had a couple questions I wanted to ask related to dramas, but first I wanted to make sure this post is not a bad place to ask questions or make recommendations? If it is, I can message you directly or go on a post you’d rather have this discussion on.

Here are my suggestions: For shorter thriller series - "Mouse" For a balance of romance and edge of your seat moments - "While You Were Sleeping" For messy controversy dealing with the social hierarchy - "Sky Castle" For a balance of messy, edge of your seat, and a little romance - "The Good Bad Mother" Love your reactions!!

I have already recommended these but i think you guys would enjoy ‘Hotel del Luna’ and ‘While you were sleeping’. Although they’re both romances they also have some sort of ‘tension’ involved. It has been a while since i’ve watched them so it might be different watching them now, but i hope you can check them out. Have a nice day!

I do understand k drama thriller and suspense shows are amazing i do recommend Big mouth, My demon ( though it's bit romentic but fantasy aspects n thriller is amazing 👍 and geyongsong creature also these are some amazing shows.... Hope you react on them.... BTW I love your reactions 💜👍🏻

Mask Girl - Zero romance, short 6 episodes but each one feels like a movie. It's a fucked up story, with a lot of violence and sex but not gratuitous. It came out last year, there are a few reactions on YT, yaboyroshi did reaction to the series and they loved it.

Bruh then react to Mouse!!!!!!! Lol

You guys should watch Through the Darkness, it’s my favourite drama. It’s not quite what you would except and it’s actully more meaningful. It’s not about love or romance it’s about more real life drama

What do you think about action comedy kdrama?

I feel the same way and I`ve been watching KDramas for A WHILE. There are good romance KDramas out there(even romcom KDramas) but those aren`t usually recommended or very well known even in the KDrama community. Most popular romcom KDramas are full of staring and overused tropes. I`d second Twinkling Watermelon and Mr Queen as I think all of you would really enjoy it!

You guys should check out Doom at your service. It’s a great romance Kdrama, so I would like to see your reaction to it ✨

Twinkling Watermelon? For Bromance and supernatural stuff?

What about revenge drama with romance thrown in there like "Marry My Husband" it's on prime now and I highly recommend it.

Thats also a thing in reaction world…we ask you to react to some certain shows because people irl are choosing not to. All of my guys friends just rejects watching romcoms or shows with romantic themes or certain kdramas like this despite them having good plots. And extremely well storyline. Your take is valid but it is exactly like the people i know irl. Thats why i prefer when reactors put a poll, that is the fairest option. However it is your channel i hope you do what is the best option for you.

You guys should try "King The Eternal Monarch" it has good mix of romance and being on edge for YBRL and Director too :D. And compared to the name, it's not ancient Goryeo like the name would suggest like so many other shows that has "King" in it.

That's the right take, to me. I've watched you all, watch enough content to be able to reach your own conclusions. Ironically, I am more drawn to your rom com reactions for K-drama or slice of life. More of the culture and personality of Korea can be seen and your reactions are authentic, open minded, and respectful without being disingenuous. Noon-chi (눈치), closest we have in English is "read the room", but that's not quite it. It isn't just "common sense, it's a skill you are told from childhood on to develop. To me, it is about learning to read micro-expressions. There are some reactors who have watched K-drama content, and their bias shows on their faces. I won't watch it, because it's not genuine. EOD, don't force it. Watch shows you enjoy, your content is better for it.

Oh I wonder if you feel the same about historical dramas. The romance in those are usually different. Depends on how good the drama is too tho. Also have you heard about Mr. Queen?

Why don’t you try a romance historical drama. My Dearest or The Red Sleeve Cuff. You can do both, that will be lovely.

Move over vanilla, more toxic the better. Also higher engagement to runtime ratios. Got it >_<

Grim reaper is in a new Disney kdrama action all the way. It's called the a shop for killers. It's short 8 episodes and so freaking good! There is another popular romance/revenge called marry my husband. Marry my husband is getting big numbers but I'm on the fence about putting it on YT. Your channel is way bigger than mine. It might get hit while it's still broadcasting.
