Usually I try to finish dramas, but there are some that I just don’t happen to finish because I get bored or it or because something better comes along or because I run out of time from watching multiple dramas…
The Fiery Priest
Honestly it was on my list of dramas to watch… but somehow I didn’t even get hooked on the first episode. I remember it having good reviews and because I wanted to watch Lee Hani. I think I only watched abit of the first episode as like toilet bowl entertainment but I didn’t enjoy it so I never continued.
Hi Bye, Mama!
Honestly, I was excited because Kim Tae Hee was inside and the guy from Prison Playbook was inside (Lee Kyu‑hyung). But, I think it was very lackluster. It was realistic I give it that, but it was the same issue over and over again and I feel like the drama dragged for too long. There wasn’t multiple problems, it was just one problem that never got solved.
Honestly, when I read the synopsis, I remembered another drama that I watched that had a similar storyline, “49 Days”. I then searched it up and realised it is a korean belief so the drama wasn’t a remake of the other one I watched.
It was quite interesting in the beginning, but I ended up stopping around episode 13 because it was only released till that point when I was bingeing the drama and my interest didn’t hold. I was expecting abit more from Kim Tae Hee’s comeback drama, but I was not really satisfied.
Extraordinary You
This drama had an interesting story line and a plus for having the main clique elements of a rom-com. It had the hot guys, the weak girl and a dash of comedy here and there.
It was interesting, but it got boring when they revealed the main problem in the later half of the drama. Personally, I would have liked it if the plot was less complex, *spoiler alert* if there was no comic book that was related to the current story line and if it was just extras trying to change their storyline.
What actually kept me going back for more were the sweet moments between the main characters. However, it wasn’t enough to sustain my interest. I felt I was always hearing the same lines, the same problem was occurring repeatedly with no resolution. The same theme, was always there and always approached in the same way. I stopped watching this drama at episode 14 because I was honestly not interested or even curious about the ending. I actually wanted to finish it for closure, so I could move on to another drama. But, I decided to just stop watching.
