Seasons just drag on and take up time slots for what could have been new shows.
I guess it doesn't really matter in America since there's so many channels here, but I really like seeing the different types of storylines each year instead of Walking Dead and Game of Thrones.I don't think this is just a korean thing, but I love the 2 episodes a week for like 16 episodes. That's only 2 months and better yet, a new drama comes out the following week.The production value is really good. The camera work makes it look like it's a movie. Also, episodes are an HOUR long, not the 40min + commercials = 1 hour to fit the broadcast time slot. Mostly every kdrama has an original soundtrack with lyrics that are written for the drama. Shows I used to watch would only have background music OSTs or they would use music that was already popular.Variety shows are a big deal of why I became fans of actors/idols. Like seeing how cool Ha Ji Won was in Secret Garden and then finding out how cute she is in real life from Family Outing.
Variety shows bring out the personalities in these stars and that makes fans feel more connected since they're able to relate to them more. Like 'omg, that's just like me dancing.' Or like 'I thought she acted like a princess, but actually she's hard working, funny, and knows how to cook.' Most of it has to do with how they are structured.For the most part I like having a single season to tell one story and then it is done. If the show goes south in the final weeks, that sucks, but I've only invested 16-24 hours of my life into it, not 21 hours every year for 5 years only to be enraged by a stupid series finale.I enjoy two episodes a week. It is pretty much a movie's worth of content/story developments in one shot.Most of the time I like the longer episode run time.
Sometimes that does result in overuse of flashbacks to scenes we JUST saw when they need to fill that time, but it can also give a show plenty of time for character development or to get through more plot developments.But I also like what the shows are about. Specifically, I like romantic comedies.
Korea produces a lot of shows that are romantic comedies. Basically, it is like a 16-24 hour rom-com movie. American shows that are rom-com-ish are open ended and I want to know my couple is going to have a chance to get together.Also: Revenge shows. I really like these types of shows and there are an insane number of them. There are a few American dramas about this too, but I don't want to watch 5 years of revenge plans going awry (I'm looking at you Emily Thorne from Revenge) so they can keep the show going.I also find it incredibly interesting while watching to note how different types of people and topics are treated differently in Korean vs US shows. For instance in US shows women are the sexual objects and in Korean shows it is the men.
Even when women are wearing teeny-tiny shorts or a deep neckline, it is rare that the camera will do anything more than point at all of her. When it does look more closely at something like cleavage it doesn't take THAT close of a look and it is only to show you that some dude has been caught looking.
Most of the time the guys will be scandalized if her white shirt is wet and he can see her ARM through it. Instead men are treated as sexual objects: the practically required shower scene, frequent changing of shirts that have a mandatory flash of abs or open shirt front, glory shots of the lead strutting in his suit, etc. Other examples would be the way product placements are handled, how fashion/clothing is treated, etc. I find all that very interesting.
An interesting question, which is easy to answer.Nothing bores me to tears more than trying to watch an American sitcom filmed entirely on one set/soundstage. (And don't even get me started on the canned laughter.) Korean dramas have much better visuals due to the amount of time spent doing outdoor shots.I'm also not a fan of crass dialogue, which has been a staple of American TV for years, and is getting worse. I like how most Kdramas don't use crude dialogue to talk down to the audience. I like that the shows portray love as two people getting to know each other and accept each other, and not just physical attraction. In many US shows, the characters get together because they are attracted to each other, and because the shows have more than one season, they break up and get back together and break up again.I enjoy reading the subtitles and trying to parse out vocabulary or grammar rules just through context.I like seeing the same actors (especially character actors) over and over again in different projects. Is it weird to say that the story lines just become so familiar?
I get excited about what could potentially happen in love lines. I love it being predictable so I can sometimes guess and sometimes just know what is going to happen next.
I'm going to say the pool is small: there is a small pool of male lead actors meaning I can get excited for their next drama.It becomes a following. 'Oh who will they be paired with this time?'
I also love the comedy characters. And because the actors who play these characters are in other dramas it becomes a recurring joke I can laugh at every time. There's that one actor in Marriage Contract that is young but gets called an old man, the same jokes he had in I Hear Your Voice.
I started watching kdramas because I was so, so, tired of Indian dramas and the 500+ episodes of inane plot lines. The national TV showed a few good ones like Jewel in the Palace with subs and I was hooked at a time when I was busy studying.The worst makjang is probably of 100 odd episodes and even they can manage a good character arc.What I love about kdramas are the family ones and crime procedurals. The American ones sexualize women to a very high extent, whereas the Korean ones barely show any cleavage and even the tiniest of skirts and shorts are treated as no big deal; I'm no prude, but there's a limit to what I want forced on my face.Realest reason?There are no 10 episode arcs of a sister-in-law creating trouble for the newly wed bride, because she borrowed sugar from a neighbour and forgot to return on time and it is insulting to the family pride and apparently the neighbourhood lady brigade thinks the bride is a skank because she went to a co-ed college. Yes, that happened.There was a very high TRP drama that had a week long arc of the girl being insulted by her family because she fed someone desert with a spoon she had tasted with before. Agree with many others here: the short usually one shot seasons and the high production values make series very satisfying.
The actors are stunningly beautiful and the repressed sexual tension is spine tingling. Even when it gets illogical, or frustrating, the highs and lows that they evoke make me laugh and cry and when the main couple finally fall in love it's so incredibly satisfying. Kissing is getting better too.Also, all hail the kdrama lead/second lead torso shot. A gratuitous shower scene never shows amiss. I want to see Abs for days.
