I really liked My Strange Hero but my attachment to it is entirely emotional. It’s all hormones, no intellect. Although intellectually I do like the fact it had a tsundere female lead and a warm-hearted Candy male lead.
It really needed a specific mood and mindset for me. I started the first ep twice and dropped it immediately. Felt too sugary perhaps for my mood then? But I absolutely loved it the third time.
Strangely I prefer to finish a mediocre drama instead of dropping it in the middle. I don’t feel liberated when I drop, I feel empty. But the drama I dropped this year and felt immediately free was Feel Good to Die. I resisted until ep 8 but I couldn’t take it any more.
Of the dramas I dropped this year, none of them were dropped for being mediocre. They were bad (MOA, Devilish Joy), a type of show I know I won’t like (Clean with Passion, She Was Pretty), or ones in which I suddenly realise I don’t care (TCC, RIBB).
I don’t mind mediocre. Mid-week a mediocre drama is sometimes just what the doctor ordered.
Feel Good to Die doesn’t exist and I have no idea what you’re talking about.
The ones I count as really bad or not for me I only watch the first or second episode and stop. But I don’t call that dropping because I’m only testing them. Dropping is when I am doing my best to accept and endure for many episodes, but I can’t take it any more from some point. There are very very few shows in this list of mine.
Hmmm I’m thinking that I count many dramas I have finished as bad too. But I didn’t drop them because they weren’t torturous. Devilish Joy? Very bad but ff is your friend. Feel Good to Die? A special kind of torture made in hell.

How’s that year of dropping going, Chingu?
I hear you dropped Cray Cray at episode 8?
How does that feel?

It wasn’t worse than Great Seducer/Tempted. I don’t regret watching Jin Goo. I should’ve used ff more often though.

I think I should give it a try again. I really don’t know why I dropped it in the first place. I honestly don’t.

I’m a dropper who became a finisher because of rabbit watches. I’ve learned a valuable lesson.
