Overrated Dramas?

Most overrated dramas for me are: Innocent Man Bridal Mask Secret Garden My Girlfriend is a Gumiho Personal Taste To the Beautiful You

Dream High & Coffee Prince
I don't get the fuss about them -_-
If not for the Pil Suk/ Jason couple, I would've dropped it after ep one.
And please tell me that I'm not the only one to find Coffee Prince extremely slow and boring. It takes ages before the guy discovers that she' a girl. I mean, during the whole thing I was like: "Dude, are doing it on purpose or do you really can't tell that she's a girl?" Seriously...


I agree about Coffee Prince! The drama was slow and boring and the only reason I gave it an 8 was because the leads managed to have decent chemistry. They have some nice kisses and Gong Yoo and Eun Hye are good actors so they saved it. Sort of. But yes- it's overrated.

I also agree about Coffee Prince....I dropped it after ep 5. Couldn't connect with the characters at all or the story. Lol....I'm about to start Innocent Man so I will find out if this will be over rated or not.

To The Beautiful You, Reply 1997, and Boy over Flowers. To be honest I liked Reply 1997 but everyone made such a big deal out of it and it just wasn't interesting to me anymore.

Ahhhh, there are too many of them! You're Beautiful (I guess this drama's targeting viewers slightly younger than me, that's why I didn't go crazy about it... and I can't stand Jang Geun Suk! ) Personal Taste (there is no plot, no chemistry between leads, no sense... and mostly those horrible clothes!) The Bridal Mask (it might be good but Mok Dan made me drop it) White Christmas (brilliant idea, average execution, brainless ending) 49 Days (booooring!) Sungkyunkwan Scandal (I hate Park Min Young and I'm tired of this whole gender-bender thing, I endured it up to ep 5 only for the sake of oogling Song Joong Ki)

I love Coffee Prince compared to others such as: To the Beautiful You Dal Ja's Spring (I might try to watch it again just for Kim Jae Wook) May Queen

I agree with you. I dropped it. As much as I love Lee Min Ho, I couldn't stand the same story over and over again.

Omg I loved Boys Over Flowers.It was like my 2nd intro to asian dramas so I don't get why it's so overrated. I love all versions of BOF's. I can't get enough of the plot! But in reference to OVERRATED DRAMAS.... 1. Reply 1997. I enjoyed it. I loved it. But it was too predictable. I wanted a twist or something but we weren't going to get that. It was good but it wasn't as "OUTSTANDING" as everyone is making it out to be. 2. The Greatest Love. It had a typical "boy hates girl" then "boy loves girl" thing to it and I never finished it. Trying to think of more...I'll come back when I think of some.

My Lovely Samsoon - Disliked main characters personalities (Samsoon was embarrasing while Hyun Bin's character was a douche) Boys Over Flowers!! (Miscast female lead and it was a good 8 eps too long) Rooftop Prince (no chemistry btwn leads and Yoochun's character wasnt that likeable) Queen Inhyuns Man- (very romantic and excellent chemistry but the story was blah) Arang and Magistrate (Perfect OTP but boring as...) Moon Embraces Sun!! ( no plot and bad acting by female lead) Greatest Love (i didnt like OTP) Scent of a Woman (i just couldnt finish this one and i didnt like the OTP together) Full House!! (dont like Rain and its repetitive as...) Personal Taste (no chemistry whatsoever and i didnt really like Son Ye Jin in this)

I still trying to watch City Hunter and My Princess.
I liked Boys Before Flowers because I watch all of the other ones Hana Yori Dango. But did not watch the one from Taiwan.
My Lovely Kim Sam Soon was an awesome watch to me. The same with Full House. I guess because those were my early Korean dramas. I started out with Japanese drama first. But overall all the I have seen were great in there own ways.
But one thing to say most romantic comedy dramas have the same plot but you just want to see how it plays out.

King2Hearts - I didn't like Lee.Seung Ki's acting and the plot was ridiculously confusing and boring. Reply 1997 - I dropped it after ep 9 and I can't understand why a lot of people completely fangirl like crazy about this drama. It wasn't anything THAT special -.-'
