The Drama Purge
In going through my list dramas I have, I'm going to give up on ever watching:
Beauty Private Kitchens - I don't know if I care enough about this historical drama to watch it, even if it promises cooking.
Demon Girl - Henry gave up after the first episode. The only incentive for me to keep watching would be for the minor role Jiro Wang has in it. But if I were to watch a drama for Jiro Wang, I'd go watch a better (not dubbed) drama.
Fighters of Destiny - I watched a few second of a random episode yesterday and I can't deal with how they dubbed one of the guys. The voice is just so irritating. And I don't care enough about Lu Han's anime face to put up with the amount of Chinese CGI in this drama.
I'll still hang onto:
Dream High - since it's a musical (allegedly).
Easy Fortune, Happy Life - for Joe Chen, even though it's probably more the video quality that's holding me back from watching this drama.
New World - it's seems like such a heavy subject matter but it's allegedly really good.
Someone Like You - I've seen the first few episodes but just never felt like continuing. It doesn't suck in any way. It just doesn't compel me.
Since we also finished Aggretsuko last night, it's time to pick another future potential drama. Fight Breaks Sphere won't come out until the end of August (thanks, Meteor Garden) so I probably won't watch that until after we come back from our vacation in mid-September.
Therefore, choices:
Which I covered in a previous post (I'm getting lazy already). Although it seems like its 60 episodes so far and still going. How? How???
Which, I don't know, if I really want to watch Jiro Wang in stuff, I'd probably be more inclined to watch something where they didn't dub him. But I guess the premise is interesting?
It's the standard "some ho-hum girl finds herself in some sort of magical dimension" dealio. It seems like a good amount of CGI (hopefully not too badly done) and fighting. I would definitely be more interested in it if not for the dubbing.
It's (I think) 24 episodes that are 25-30 minutes in length.
The undubbed drama I would be more likely to watch for Jiro Wang would be Fabulous Boys, a standard "wow, I totally can't tell that's a woman pretending to be a man!" drama.
See how bending their thumbs are? Totally normal!
It's a remake of a Korean (and maybe also a Japanese) drama and some people on the internet seems to think it's superior to the original(s).
It's 13 episodes of slightly over an hour each.
Another tomb raiding drama, which seems to be the craze these days.
Featuring: the guy that doesn't look cool enough in Swords of Legends, the guy that doesn't look hot enough in Love O2O, and Tiffany Tang, who is cool in my books.
It's 10 episodes of 40 minutes each.
It's a Korean drama and I'm always like, there has to be a good Korean drama out there since they're so popular, right? I've been pretty disappointed so far with all the ones I've watched, so it's definitely difficult to start another.
It's one of those robot dramas where some person created a robot of her comatose (?) son and romantic (comedy?) drama happens? I don't really know. The internet keeps trying to tell me its good. But that alien drama that I thought was blah was also highly beloved by the internet.
It's 36 episodes of 35 minutes each.
