Ill be updating this list tmrw, i need help (view #k-dramas chanel)

icy mauve
#

alr, here we go

#

Yumi's Cells 2 finished airing, add to main list
Link finished airing, add to main list
Alchemy of Souls, Netflix, 18/20 aired (slot Saturday/Sunday)
Big Mouth 8/16 aired (slot: Friday/Saturday)
Cafe Minamdang, Netflix, 16/18 aired (slot: Monday/Tuesday)
Today's Webtoon, 8/16 aired (slot: Friday Saturday)

#

all dramas available on Dramacool, added other platforms if available there

#

also, I think you should cut down on the reviewers who aren't that active/u can't contact directly

#

like, idk who tf these peeps are (except PurpleSpring), they've put in very few reviews, and I have no way to contact them

#

if u do know, then it's alr, but it's just a suggestion

#

also, the few reviews thing could also apply to me lol

#

but u get what I mean hopefully

fossil zealot
#

rqdot should I add Anna and Anna: Director's Cut?

#

didn't have the motivation to watch the director's cut, not that I didnt like Anna but it's just kind of a waste of time at this point for me

#

rqdot Removed some curators with few reviews on the review list
The following have been removed:
Moon-Moon, Unicorn, Ari, Pip, Purple Spring (all of them had less than 20 reviews)
(contact me if you wish to get back to it)

fossil zealot
#

rqdot Now indicated the number of review per curator:

#

rqdot please help me validate all those information (if you see anything wrong just tell me), especially regarding genres:

#

I will be unavailable by tomorrow up until next week also

icy mauve
#

Why Her is more thriller than romance
Link is Fantasy and romance ig?
that's all I can see rn

fossil zealot
#

rqdot I made a completely subjective list of "starter" drama to watch

rqdotsmall I followed a simple rule to chose them: their genre do not overlap with others "starter" drama, their plot is kinda simple to follow, their theme is rather "pure" (not a mix of many different thing), their rhythm is entertaining, they do not have many seasons / eps

rqdotsmall They are noted with an 🎀 at their right on the list

rqdotsmall Here is the list:
❤️ Romance
• Crash Landing on You
• Hotel Del Luna
• Thirty-Nine
• Business Proposal
👊 Action
• Vagabond
• Vincenzo
• My Name
• Taxi Driver
🪄 Fantasy
• The Uncanny Counter
• Alchemy of Souls
🏛️ Society
• SKY Castle
• Extra Curricular
• Juvenile Justice
• Squid Game
• Extraordinary Attorney Woo
👮 Thriller
• The Silent Sea
🩸 Horror
• Strangers from Hell
• All of us are Dead

rqdotsmall Do not hesitate to tell me if you feel like some shouldn't be on the list or if others should be added to the list (let's discuss this openly)

icy mauve
#

and Thirty Nine might be a bit too heavy for a starter drama

#

good starter list tho, I approve of the rest (even if I haven't watched quite a bit of them lmao)

fossil zealot
fossil zealot
#

don't mean to push for it, just genuinely wondering

icy mauve
#

but I see why you'd include Thirty Nine in there

#

and if a lot of people consider 25/21's ending to be sad, then Thirty Nine would be a bit much for them

fossil zealot
icy mauve
icy mauve
#

but all the dramas, even the romcoms, have some serious element to them

fossil zealot
icy mauve
#

it's what makes us love them so much, how they balance comedy with a serious story

icy mauve
fossil zealot
icy mauve
#

oh frick yeah

fossil zealot
#

Help us set up the "starter drama" list, for now here's what we have:

• Business Proposal

added

icy mauve
#

this is just me n my love for romcoms showing, but they're also some genuinely good dramas

fossil zealot
#

I feel like Business Proposal does a better job at introducing pure romcom to starting ppl (better than Our Beloved Summer which is a bit more... slow)

icy mauve
#

then add Homecha

#

it's setting is different than others

#

and it has a healing element as well

fossil zealot
#

also Homecha feels more like a "mature" romcom and Cloy does a better job at introducing that to people (faster paced, more teen-friendly also and has North-Korean element which makes it extra interesting)

#

Homecha feels very "adult-oriented" imho, it's slow and has very mature theme

#

but maybe that's exactly the reason why it should be added there 🤨

icy mauve
#

well, the adult oriented drama is one my 10 yr old sister started watching on her own

fossil zealot
#

i feel like there's a higher chance of a starter ppl getting bored in front of Homecha than in front of Cloy

#

but i really dunno why

icy mauve
#

and she's LOVED it so far (till ep 10)

#

hmmm

#

let's ask the others then

fossil zealot
#

I think an easy way to find a starter drama would be:
In a specific given genre, what's the EASIEST one to follow, the clearer one in terms of theme, the more entertaining one and the better rhythmed one

#

considering most drama have several genre, we can easily split each "major" genre in multiple ones

#

does Homecha overlap with any other on this list?

#

if not, is it unique enough to be considered as having its own genre (like "healing / countryside / romance")

icy mauve
#

like, the starter list

fossil zealot
#

our blues feels really slow I think, Homecha feels much more entertaining at first glance imho (not saying I dislike Our Blues)

#

gonna follow your advice, adding Homecha to the list

icy mauve
#

there are also no other obvious healing dramas in there (other than Thirty Nine, but that's in a different setting)

fossil zealot
#

I wanted to go for It's okay not to be okay

#

but I didn't add it

#

to me it's best healing drama

#

but it's just... not a starter drama I think

icy mauve
#

hmmm true

fossil zealot
#

rqdot Current Starter List

The main idea is to find Kdrama that are the most entertaining / easiest to follow in their own niche / genre. Adding multiple dramas that are in the exact same genre / niche should be avoided. Not having too many episodes or seasons is also a good thing (so that starting people don't have to go over 20 hours+ of watching before getting an idea).

Help us define what's missing or what should be removed from here:

❤️ Romance
• Crash Landing on You - (best / easy to follow Romance mixed with Society / Undercover thematics)
• Hotel Del Luna - (best romance / fantasy with a good rhythm)
• Thirty-Nine - (very high emotional values alongside a romance setting, not too long and easy to follow)
• Business Proposal - (very high comedy values with a pure romance setting and having all the usual romance markers)
• Hometown Cha-cha-cha - (healing, more mature romcom, good rhythm)
👊 Action
• Vincenzo - (one of the best if not the best mafia kdrama, pretty charismatic and powerful characters all along, epic fight scenes and setting)
• My Name - (unique woman-oriented revenge setting with awesome fight scenes)
• Taxi Driver - (another revenge plot, that might be overlapping with my name but it has a very different mood and is more team-oriented and thriller-like)
🪄 Fantasy
• The Uncanny Counter - (overall wholesome fantasy / contemporary drama with very likable and relatable characters, good humor as well)
• Alchemy of Souls - (highest budget fantasy setup, one of the only "wizard, magic" oriented stuff, well rhythmed)
🏛️ Society
• SKY Castle - (high emotional values alongside a heavy society critic)
• Extracurricular - (very well rhythmed, heavy society critic with a high-school / teen setup which makes it easier to dive in)
• Squid Game - (a staple of kdramas)
• Extraordinary Attorney Woo - (one of the best law oriented romcoms, wholesome and easy to follow, very well rhythmed)
🕵️‍♂️ Thriller
• The Silent Sea - (interesting thriller, high budgets SFX, space setup, all-in-all a very unique and well-made drama that is easy to follow)
🩸 Horror
• Strangers from Hell - (one of the most horrible mood and ambient during the entire show)
• All of us are Dead - (very easy to follow zombie-themed show with relatable high-school characters, relatively good rhythm)

#

I highly disagree with Goblin and Tale of the Nine-tailed, haven't watched Doom at your Service
Sound of Magic is pretty good and pretty unique, so that might be something to add, also it has the unique element of musical comedy to it as well

umbral magnet
#

alchemy of souls will have 2 seasons tho

#

don't u think extracurricular is a bit too dark nd heavy for starters lisaKEKW

fossil zealot
icy mauve
#

on the other hand, I'd really like Extracurricular to be on the list

#

because people already expect heavy stuff for society/thriller dramas

#

so there's no problem with going for that

In context message: i met 2 Korean publishers and i got to say anyeonsaeo

oi forgot

fossil zealot

the format I choose is not good

unborn phoenix
#

@tacit eagle

fossil zealot
#

everything is rated on 3, which is not fair

#

like if the drama music is good and its plot is good

#

the rates weight the same

#

it's nonsense

#

hm

I dont understand are you like

adding us to the word doc

#

Ooo

maiden raptor
#

oh

unborn phoenix
#

@twin peak

fossil zealot
#

i added the info at the top

unborn phoenix
#

sorry for the ping everyone

fossil zealot
#

rqdotsmall do we give a 1️⃣ single rating for each drama, or do we give a 2️⃣ rating based on a set of factors (such as plot, acting, narrative etc.)?
(react below)

mild prairie
#

cannot believe TKEM got 13

fossil zealot
#

this is my grade, I personally found the second half to be full of nonsense

#

and it prevented me from enjoying it fully

mild prairie
#

comparing to other 13 dramas ew

#

(me saying it shd get lower)

tacit eagle
#

no

#

dude

fossil zealot
#

I'm gentle with the grades

#

but it mostly comes from the fact that all "criteria" weight the same

#

if they were more reflecting their actual importance

#

it might reflect a bit better on the final grade

tacit eagle
#

yea

fossil zealot
#

though considering this:

#

I'm guessing we won't have criteria lol :p

mild prairie
#

i think it's because not many ppl pay attention to everything and just enjoy the drama and rate it based on how much enjoyment they got

#

that's what i do

umbral magnet
#

yea

hybrid moat
#

hmm

maiden raptor
fossil zealot
#

and they decrease my enjoyment

#

also, I sometime enjoy something, though I reckon it's not of the utmost quality

#

for example, I recently enjoyed 'The K2'

#

but it's kind of bad actually

#

I mean, it's not bad... it's just a bit...

#

it's kind of a "b movie"

#

ya know

maiden raptor
fossil zealot
#

though, the list of drama wouldn't be useful, if all drama are rated 15+/20

#

or like, 90% of the list is 95%

#

like the internet grades

#

but it's just my opinion

#

if we end up like this and every curators think it's okay, then okay

#

basically on the internet, if a show has like 96% it's good
if it has 90% it's often meeeh

#

anyway, I'm hopping off, please feel free to discuss / answer / tell us if you wanna become a curator

#
  • anything that cross your mind related to making the list a useful tool
#

for people to find good dramas to watch

#

(which is ultimately the goal we're looking for, right?)

umbral magnet
#

you can just rate the drama /10 or 20 and do a special section of whats the best thing in the drama. whether its the plot, acting, ost, cinematography, etc

oooo

#

wot happen here

umbral magnet
#

idk

fossil zealot
#

I got caught in the middle of something, couldn't continue handling this
I will resume shortly 👌

#

or rather, as soon as the hangover dissipates, which might not be that shortly

robust sedge
#

damn

austere kindle
#

who made this

fossil zealot
#

rqdot @here what kind of grades / rating should we go for?
1️⃣ /5
2️⃣ /10
3️⃣ /20
4️⃣ S, A, B, C, D
5️⃣ other

#

rqdot also, I was thinking of having a better showcase of the main categories dramas belong to
so that people can find them in an easy fashion
something like this maybe:
(ignore which drama are in which category for now, it's just for demonstration purpose)
do we think it's 1️⃣ useful? or 2️⃣ useless?

#

rqdot we also need to validate the genres we have
I feel like some might be missing, some might be overlapping, some might not be useful

#

rqdot now regarding how it works to review and rate dramas:
each curator has a column to its name, it is the only thing he can modify in the document (the rest of the document will be protected and nobody but the moderators will be able to modify it)
the rating of a drama will be the average of the rating of all curators
seems 1️⃣ correct right? or 2️⃣ no?

#

rqdot should the list include the release date of the drama?
1️⃣ yes, 2️⃣ no

#

rqdot how should we treat "seasons"?
1️⃣ each season has one entry
2️⃣ a drama is judged as a whole (one entry per drama, regardless of how many seasons)
3️⃣ if the drama needs all the seasons to have a real "end", then we group it up, if not we split it (basically, are the stories from S1 and S2 different, like Strangers, or are they directly related in the sense that without them, the story wouldn't be complete, such as Love Alarm and Vagabond)

fossil zealot
#

rqdot should curator have the possibility to add a comment in addition to their rating?
1️⃣ yes, 2️⃣ no

fossil zealot
#

i made some progress
I'll be waiting for more people to answer the questions above to continue working on it

#

now we basically need curators and for them to answer the questions above

#

and we'll be good to go

Hey there!
If you want to be a Curator, please send me a valid gmail address.
For security reason you should send it to me in DM.
We've already been through this process with @icy mauve and we're both using "dummy" (a fake one, one you don't use for official purpose, one you use only to store advertising mails or stuff like this) gmail address to avoid any suspicions, feel free to use any address you want.
@umbral magnet, @sick wind, @unborn phoenix, @hybrid moat, @tacit eagle, @robust sedge

unborn phoenix
#

i cant dm u idk why

tacit eagle
#

what are dummy mail addresses?

sick wind
fossil zealot

I'll explain in the message

unborn phoenix

unborn phoenix

#

Hey Curators!
I'm in the process of granting you access to the column in which you can enter your grade
Though I'm having a hard time finding out what mail corresponds to what persons considering your DM nickname does not correspond to the nickname you have here on this server.
May you send me the nickname you're using here in DM please?

hybrid moat
#

my nickname is the same

fossil zealot
#

yup obviously for you it was pretty easy 😄

fossil zealot
#

@here everything is ready for the curators, there's a "how to use" cell with a comment explaining everything for both readers and curators

#

i still need your nickname in DM to properly grant you the authorization to rate dramas

#

also I still need you curators to agree on the categories (main coloured lines) and the categories

icy mauve
#

Also, yun

#

can we put decimal ratings (like 7.8 or something similar)

#

@fossil zealot

fossil zealot
#

yes we can, just need to use COMA rather than DOTS

icy mauve
#

you forgot a few categories I think

#

like historical

fossil zealot
#

added 👌

#

should we round final grades lads?

#

it seems easier to read grades this way

#

from a viewer's pov

#

i'm hopping off for today
make sure to send me your nickname you use in this discord in DM if you want to get your curator's permissions 🙂

I think I've watched more dramas, I just can't remember more :C

fossil zealot
#

it says, "if you want to add dramas, please send me these info:"

#

"release date, category, main genre, sub genre, number of seasons"

#

and I'm also thinking

#

"number of episodes"

#

that we should be adding to the list

#

and also where to watch them

#

I know, that's a lot of info to get for these dramas x)

#

oh wait is sub genre mandatory?

fossil zealot
#

no

#

it's not

#

though i have yet to find an example without a subgenre 🤨

#

Vagabond is just "Action"

#

nothing else

#

Designated Survivor:60 Days is just "Political"

#

nothing else

#

those are the two only examples on the list right now

#

also, I'm not getting the genre from google

maiden raptor
#

kill it - revenge

#

?

fossil zealot
#

since they tell us that Vagabond is "romance"

fossil zealot
maiden raptor
#

kill it drama genre revenge only?

I didn't

and I'm not even sure

what is the name of the drama

#

and the name of the genre

#

you're trying to tell me about

#

🤣

maiden raptor
#

kill it (drama name)

fossil zealot
#

sorry I'm lost 🥲

#

genre "revenge"?

maiden raptor
#

yes

fossil zealot
#

never heard of that genre

maiden raptor
#

ah
nvm

fossil zealot
#

I think

maiden raptor
#

my dumb brain thot that was a thing

fossil zealot
#

it might be plot related to talk about revenge

#

"genre" kinda tells us you what kind of scene you'll be watching at

maiden raptor
#

then its action only

fossil zealot
#

for example "taken" is revenge but it's just an action movie

maiden raptor
#

sure sure
dont insult me more

fossil zealot
#

ooooooh sorry

#

i didn't want to say it that way

#

i'm a bit rude :x

#

if we want to avoid having a kdrama review list which is "lukewarm" (everything is between 8 and 10), we have to clearly differentiate what we liked from what we think is good. though it can be hard to realize this

#

for example, i liked 'The K2', but it's not a great show lol

maiden raptor

I'm not "finding" them, I'm choosing them 😄

#

based on what the show is

only what elliot says exist

fossil zealot
#

ahah

maiden raptor
#

wise

fossil zealot
#

we gotta agree on what genre we have

#

and what genre is each kdrama
I asked it in the list of questions, to be fair JisooScream

it's the french name, my bad (though it's written in English)

#

in France Demon Catchers = the uncanny counter

#

gonna rename this in the sheet

fossil zealot
fossil zealot
#

what should we do 😱

hybrid moat
#

add slice of life as another genre

#

ig

#

if u can

fossil zealot
#

feels weird, since it'd be the only one getting that tag for now 🤨

#

it probably means other drama have the wrong genre as well

#

I would say that the tags we're filling are "theme genres" rather than "setting genre"

#

though you can disagree and we may discuss it

fossil zealot
#

Hey there
just reviving this to ask a few questions to curators & users:

  • how do you feel the list is living? useful? useless?
  • what's missing? do we need more? do we need less?
#
  • whatcha like to see changed?
open blade
#

-useful

#

-more

#

-maybe a plot summary

fossil zealot

you agree with "thriller" guys? I don't think I'm too sold but if I'm alone I'll let it be

hybrid moat
#

yup we agree with thriller

long wadi
#

wow earlier I thought it was just like that but when i saw the excel sheet i was like

fossil zealot
#

what genre for aadsig?

#

romance what?

#

same for nevertheless

#

added aadsig and nevertheless to the document

rough crystal
#

k3

sick wind
fossil zealot
#

I'm having a hard time adding "slice of life" as a genre knowing:

#

but maybe I should 🤨

#

we never used it so far

#

maybe it would be good to review the genre with the curators 🤨

icy mauve
#

melodrama is basically makjang in a normal setting

fossil zealot
#

Let's talk about genres
What's wrong / cool with those:
Action, Business, Comedy, Fantasy, Historical, Horror, Intrigue, Investigation, Law, Medical, Melodrama, Political, Romance, Science Fiction, Society, Survival, Thriller

and it would be hard to talk about that without talking about the ways drama are currently sorted, by big "genre":
Romance, Action, Fantasy, Society, Thriller, Horror

#

what do we need more? what's not necessary? does it work well?

umbral magnet
#

At least to me intrigue seems unnecessary since we have thriller and investigation

fossil zealot
#

why is this thread continuously being highlighted 🤨

onyx crypt

idk

fossil zealot

is that a sign that someone's wants us to do something about the list?

icy mauve

maybe he/she just wants to keep the thread alive

#

anyways, I updated my reviews on the list

fossil zealot
#

compared to my watch list

and we still have to clean up the categorization and genre system yo

#

i haven't watched half of those 😂

#

I'm figuring out the genre following Google, but honestly it's not that great lol

#

just a reminder, the genres:

#

I added all drama we previously talked about

unborn phoenix
#

now that i see the list

#

action and survival seems better than action and horror maybe?

#

because zombies fit survival more than horror imo

fossil zealot
unborn phoenix
#

mhm yes

fossil zealot
#

I just checked and our ratings range mostly from 7 to 10 lol
we're like, VERY OBJECTIVE about Kdramas lol

#

I should do something like, take all ratings and give them -5 to have a more accurate way of depicting 'what the heck shoulda watch'

#

snowdrop can be a melodrama + romance?

I'm thinking about adding a new tab to the document entitled 'airing dramas' with a list of drama we're following, the day they're being released, the number of eps available and the planned number of eps
Whatcha think

added:

#

switched from simple to complex ratings:
what do you guys think?
(I'm open to changing back, or even finding something else entirely)

#

I reviewed all my ratings

#

and reduced most of them
(mostly Romcoms actually)

#

I tried to get rid of any particular feelings I had towards the shows depending on the actors

#

like simping Park Min Young or Han So Hee too much

#

if you help me get the genre straight for these ones I'll move them out of 'incoming'

#

I highlighted my favorites like this
you can do the same by copying the format using this button:

#

at the top left

#

clicking any of my pink boxes, clicking the copy format button, then clicking your box you want to put in favorite

#

(repeat to put multiples)

help me, is that correct? @here

I didn't add them though 😄

The list wasnt protected i guess, they invited themselves RoseKek

I protected it now (or should have)

oi @fossil zealot

also, no slice of life category how

fossil zealot
#

OTTOKE

icy mauve
fossil zealot
#

Im wondering what to do

#

There must be plenty of other dramas in the list that should be slice of life

#

Also im wondering if its really a genre

#

Im also wondering if i should add a third column for genre (meaning we can tag up to 3 genres per drama)

icy mauve
#

for some dramas, that would be overdescribing the genre tho

fossil zealot
#

Also, also, also, I dont freaking know why you can't enter values in the document considering ive set up everything correctly afaik

fossil zealot
icy mauve
fossil zealot
#

No there's probably something going on with the authorization that i dont know about

#

Ill look into it alongside the slice of life thing

fossil zealot
icy mauve
#

like, take Waikiki for example

#

that's a pure comedy if I've ever seen one

fossil zealot
#

Yeah well it would only be tagged comedy

icy mauve
#

hmmm alright then

fossil zealot
#

I'm not convinced on the 'slice of life' thing, will it tell me what it is that im going to watch?

What does slice of life encompass?
