This Post is for Kdrama fans only. If your comment has nothing to do with kdramas. Please leave it elsewhere



Parasyte The Grey Coming. Its a great show so far. Even if you already know the anime and if you dont. Its fine as the character is different from the anime but in the same universe.

What’s your take on that K drama “Lovely Runner”. I see the most comments for that and the plus side , it’s airing.

Great for posting and editing relevant content.

YES to Lovely Runner🙌🏻

Manha

OMG YES PLEASE BIG YES TO LOVELY RUNNER!

fullsun

Right that’s what I was thinking overall and was trying to say in general terms concerning Lovely Runner . But thank you for your input. I genuinely appreciate it

Kiana

So far lovely runner has been well lovely. I like the concept of the show mixed with the comedy and romance.

I think the reason why there are not many reactions to Lovely Runner on youtube is that the show didn't have much anticipation before its airing. It's adapted from a web novel but the web novel is not as popular as True Beauty, and the cast are young actors, it's Byeon Wooseok's first lead role in a drama. After the episodes aired, it's slowly getting attention and doing so well both internationally and domestically now. If you search for the reaction in Korean, there are many youtuber started doing reaction to it, and I rarely see Korean people doing reaction to kdrama. For the specific analytics, there're about 20k to 40k views for lovely runner reaction on this 3k subs channel. There is a 170k view video of a 200k subs channel too. I also see some patreon creators decided to react to lovely runner after their current series ends. So I think this show has the potential and will become the one that people recommend for patreon reaction in the future.

I'm loving Lovely Runner so far. I've been watching kdrama for 10 years but slowly lost interest lately as I become pickier. Tbh I dropped almost all of the recent popular ones either because of the "had potential but went downhill" script or the actors' poor acting. With that being said, Lovely Runner keeps me on edge waiting for new episode each week, the feeling that I lost 2 years ago :)) I started this with not much expectation but it's surprisingly good by the way they direct and execute the old time-slip premise. It has the perfect balance of romance, comedy, angst and unexpected twists. The ML and FL are doing great too, their chemistry is sizzling. It's only 6 episodes for now but if they can keep the quality till the end, it will be one of my all-time faves.

Jia

That’s very nice to hear!! Thank you!

Prajna Arun

I would love to watch your reaction on lovely runner 😍 I haven't started yet I am waiting for all episodes to come out I am very excited for this one and knowing you guys will also considering it adds more joy😍😍

Himani Tokhi

I completely understand and respect what you’re saying. I’m not disagreeing with you that using YouTube for analytics of shows/dramas. I understand and I agree you with you on that. For example a few years ago another YouTube channel that mainly did anime tried to do reaction to crash landing on YouTube but was hit with a copyright issue and the reaction was taken down as a result of that. Again I’m not disagreeing with your method for using YouTube. I’m saying when it comes certain dramas that are either older or not from Netflix, Hulu/disney and that due to previous issues before with trying to do reactions to kdramas . That for those instances that other sources or platforms should be taken into consideration for reactions. This is only my opinion. This is your decision/channel and ultimately I will support whatever your decision is regarding whatever drama get’s reacted to. I just wanted to state my thoughts on the matter for the record. That’s all. I apologize if it came off that I was criticizing you about using YouTube in order to see if it has audience that was not my intention.

Kiana

Its okay, understandable. The show is pretty low ratings in korea but internationally it’s quite well received. It also has high ratings in Viki. The reason I suggest the show is because I think that you would like the love story between the ml and fl and their side characters stories 😂 Its okay tho all good 👍

tihah

But there are always outliers or exceptions. But those are not the rules

Rock Lee

As a realtor folks tell me all the time what they think their house will sell for because they have emotion tied to it. I just see what the market says. And the market is generally accurate to follow and the homeowner eventually sells at the price i said. Or they fire me. And i see the house sold at the house i said anyways. Lol. Cuz the data is reliable

Rock Lee

YouTube shows the analytics for search terms. So i know if it has an audience searching for the reactions and generally how many. In addition there are reactions to it. So i can see the audience and how many support the channels that cover it. Its a massive indicator. I do this aaaaallll the time. Basically for a living i analyze results and evaluate wins and losses and what the common factors are. Its a perspective thats difficult to see unless you’re in my shoes. So i understand why you think as you do.

Rock Lee

I respect your take on that Kiana.

Rock Lee

Lol. Trying to pick shows that will satisfy a large group. If its not very well rated. It just doesn’t fit that objective. I should have responded better tho. Ngl

Rock Lee

welp too bad then

tihah

I would also like to reiterate what I’ve said previously before concerning potential reactions to kdramas . Just because there’s little or no reactions to these dramas on YouTube doesn’t necessarily mean there’s no audience for it for reactions . Dramas like Lovely Runner have and show a clear growing interest and popularity as I have mentioned and put a link in my previous comment. In my opinion it would be be a waste not to do a reaction as it’s the second most popular drama and highest rated drama currently airing right now across all platforms/boards

Kiana

Yea. I can tell by the way your opening statement was that you would have good takes relevant to a content creator. I was a perfect opening statement that allowed me to know i can listen to you. I love that i was able to identify it. Haha. But thats why i take the streets. I am looking for people like you. Thank you very much. I saved what you wrote word for word

Rock Lee

Lovely runner is a time traveling romcom drama. Next week will be the midway point of the drama.Putting my bias aside and looking at it from an analytical standpoint. Besides obviously Queen of Tears . Lovely Runner is most top rated and one of the most well reviewed drama currently airing right now. Upon premiere Lovely Runner ranked No. 1 in over 133 regions that Viki is made available including the US. Upon the first 2 episodes it had a rating of 9.8 and currently after 6 episodes it’s still at a 9.8 rating. On IMDB its rating is 9.0 . Since the drama has aired it’s been on a weekly ranking of most buzz worthy shows. This ranking measures the popularity of each drama by news, articles and other various social media platforms. So far consistently Lovely Runner has always managed going in the top ten. According that ranking list Lovely Runner is behind Queen of Tears who is number one the 1 on the list making Lovely runner number 2 on it. https://www.hindustantimes.com/entertainment/web-series/queen-of-tears-vs-lovely-runner-which-weekly-drama-swept-the-buzzworthy-rankings-this-time-101713754870198.html

Kiana

ASAP

Rock Lee

Naaaaa IM good

Rock Lee

I still gonna suggest the midnight studio. it may not have the highest rating but the story line, love story between ml, fl and side characters are the best in my opinion.

tihah

When you releasing the episodes for this?

Thamor

I didn't like the Synopsis of the drama hence I have mixed feelings about it

Francis M

Lovely Runner is very well written and has a interesting narration...first 2 eps might've looked simpler at first watch but the more you go further into the eps there's always something hidden in those initial episodes to surprise us 🙌

natasha

I would say you should give try atleast first 4 eps...they showed so many hidden details and pov made it beautiful

Hayikyu

I'll give it a try then

Antonin Nguyen

It set 40% in school and 60% in their adult life (30s) according to webnovel/webtoon

priya

You gave up too soon...end of ep 2 took a totally different turn 😩

priya

I'm loving The Lovely Runner so far so I would be happy to watch it with you all

Priya

I liked the first episode of lovely runner, but the end of the first episode and the direction it took didn't make me want to continue, don't hate it but I hoped for a different kind of story. Maybe it's getting better later, will see if you watch it

Antonin Nguyen

Well, here are my thoughts right now... I will watch your reaction ro Parasyte The Grey since it's something I'm interested in as a fan of the anime. As for Lovely Runner, I see the high ratings, but I also see that the number of ratings is still pretty low right now since it's still airing, so I'm waiting to see how it will do as a whole before I watch it. I would rather watch your reaction to something already proven to be good right now. I want to see a reaction to 2521 the most, but there are also some other shows that people are recommending that look good :)

Mitaka

I don't think there's a single show that wouldn't have both positive and negative comments when asking a group of different people. Personally haven't seen Lovely Runner yet but definitely planning to start soon. Haven't seen a show this highly rated and recommended in a while. Of course not knowing the show itself yet makes me want to root for a reaction to other show, which I already know and love, same as others. So will be crossing my fingers for Happiness, While You Were Sleeping, Castaway Diva, Tomorrow, Start-Up or The Good Bad Mother for now.

Marvelous JJ

I'm loving Lovely Runner, it's just a type of drama I needed. The plot it's good so far, the characters are funny there's fluff, plot twists. I can say it's very different from the drama you've been reacting lately. It has a less serious tone. It's more humorous, I can compare it more to strong woman do bong soon, than to queen of tears o CLOY. I think it would be good to watch you react to it just to take a breath from all the mental instability and stress this dramas are giving us ahaha.

Giada Mattiucci

^I’m sure it’s difficult

Prajna Arun

Wow can’t believe I predicted with some accuracy!! Good luck with your decision process~

Prajna Arun

I have never been one to side with the majority just because something is popular or trending. Nor am I swayed by the reviews. Most of the KDramas I like received weird reviews but were great shows. Let the record reflect that the romance/comedy genre of KDrama is my least favorite. They often script the characters most annoyingly with the FL being obnoxious and the ML being overly rude or foolishly clueless. With this being said, Lovely Runner is on my top 5 weekly watch list. In my opinion, it's a really good watch. I love everything about this show. I'm just gaga over the female lead. Her raspy little voice mixed with her inner giant (looks 4'10 but acts like she is 6'2) is the cutest. The ML (villain from Strong Woman 2) is yummy and I thought he was an idol at some point in his career because he has a beautiful voice. The height difference between the ML and FL also makes for great chemistry. This show has a rating of 9.1/10 from 4,334 users on MyDramaList and a 9.8/10 from 10,795 viewers on Rakuten Viki. I haven't seen ratings this high in a long time and, in my opinion, the ratings are well deserved. Much like Twinkling Watermelon, the time-altering plot, supportive script, OST, and casting are on point. It's well-written and not repetitive like most time-altering storylines. The chemistry between the ML and FL is chemistrying. Even the 2nd male lead will sway you. The pacing is just right because we are currently waiting on episode 7 and I haven't once said to myself, "I wish they would just move on already." It might not be the most popular or recommended here, but I'm confident you guys would enjoy reacting to this show.

Bran Bran

i haven't seen either show so i cant give input but i recommend mouse or strangers from hell the next time yall want something thriller/ serial killer themed

Venus

I see people recommend lovely runner a lot even on twitter but when i watched it i couldn't make it past 20 mins of ep 1 because the lead actress' voice was annoying for me. I don't know, maybe i was just not in the mood to watch a show like that at that moment or maybe it was too hyped but did not meet expectations right away. I was watching qot at the same time and maybe that also played a part, like, i wanted something as good as qot.

River Bleu

lol I feel asleep and didnt notice your most recent post. I'm glad ya'll stated it!!!

Subaru

Yes Parasyte the grey isnt making waves in the KDRAMA world. HOWEVER, there is a high general interest for it outside of it just being a K drama. It breaks the barrier in a way many other shows cant. The best way to put it views wise is that it is not covered many channels, but for the channels that do cover it (nojaem no life, Nerdyverse, semz nerd) it is their BREAKOUT series and does better than even currently airing live actions like Fallout and 3 Body Problem. In short there is high demand but low supply and personally I'd watch it over a more 'chill' show like Lovely Runner

Subaru

Lovely Runner is SO GOOD, it got me out of my kdrama slump and Queen of Tears !!

Suraiya Nishat

The ending scene of the Parasyte Kdrama got me excited! 🔥👀

AceTrigger

Lovely runner is doing great so far in terms of ratings and plot. I'd love to see your reactions to it. But if you're considering timeless classics I'd like to suggest Mr. Queen, Reply 1988, Good bad mother, 25 21 and Little Women.

Koo b

Still not watching kdrama but yeah

L.C.

Oh. Well i was wise to trust you. 2521, Beloved Summer,Mr Queen, Reply 1988 are most popular as of late along with Beyond Evil.

Rock Lee

I personally didn't really LOVE lovely runner - it's a decent show with a pretty good story but maybe because I watched it alongside QOT it didn't feel as great (still would watch if you guys went with it). I personally feel you should go with one of the classics or something that came second in the previous QOT poll. If I had to make a recommendation it would be "What's wrong with Secretary Kim" --> it has the actress from Marry My Husband who I know y'all like and it's a fun show somewhat like the business proposal vibe.

Zzzboy888

I could ramble for days about recommending shows for sure haha I'll stop there!

Prajna Arun

Lmao in that case I'll give you some from a variety of genres, and maybe you'll see one that has been requested a lot, that would do really well for your channel! Family/Coming of Age: Reply 1988 will never get old for k-drama fans. It has so many life lessons and, it was through that show that I realized so much about family. Historical: Definitely Under the Queen's Umbrella, the political tension and everything is really intriguing. Mr. Queen is also one that's really funny! Romance: Our Beloved Summer is one of my top pics of all time. It never got boring for me! True Beauty and 25-21 are teenage romance dramas. I know for sure True Beauty would pull in a lot of viewers!

Prajna Arun

Lovely Runner is right up there with QOT in terms of weekly waiting hype for me, it has 2 amazing lead actors, a really interesting take on a time old premise. I think with the premise it leaves you wanting more and allows for great theorizing after every ep.

Yoruka

Oh that’s dope. Sounds very interesting

Asher Ealey

spinoff

Danny

It's more like "meanwhile in korea" like a similar story to the anime but how it went down in Korea.

Lysieblu

Is this like a spin-off or a sequel? Or is it just a whole copy but in Korean?

Asher Ealey

I like romance and Adorkable does not. For example lol

Rock Lee

ultimately I go with whatever makes the audience happiest. I always have a variety of content for our moods and we dont all like the same thing

Rock Lee

I will listen to your suggestions because your comment is rather thoughtful Shoot

Rock Lee

You are correct minus verbage on stealing

Rock Lee

ok please do cause i am highly skeptical from what I've seen and you know I'm picky lol

Mochi

I hope it's good though, I've been afraid to watch it cause I don't wanna be let down lol

Mochi

Lovely Runner doesn't seem to stand out in this huge world of kdramas, however it is feel-good, recent, and somewhat popular, so it may do good for yt views and Patreon subscriptions. I don't know much about parasyte, so can't say anything about it. But i would suggest you try out a timeless piece since you checked out a more recent one, queen of tears (what a masterpiece). Not sure if I should give recommendations since they'd probably overwhelm you more. Regardless, I would enjoy watching your reaction to Lovely Runner or any other kdrama.

Prajna Arun

Lovely Runner has been pretty good. Funnier than I thought it was going to be.

Trevin Ahiatsi

you know kdramas they pull the pivots etc. ok i will lol

LightMyPath Star

i like it too i just wish i love it but im so stuck on the anime its hard to pull myself out of it. otherwise i say its good just wish it was great but it should do well i think with your viewers

LightMyPath Star

wdym is not hs 😔 is it falsely advertised??? you gotta enlighten me in the dms cause whenever i look it up it says different

Mochi

no not h.s. base however it has the typical kdrama tropes etc but good enough that i dont mind it yet. Like i said i think theres only like 6ep out so too soon to give a concrete opinion

LightMyPath Star

ok ok just checking, make sure you link your patreon~ me and kiki be the only ones in the patreon only kdrama chat D:

Mochi

yes im on discord we can chat it up there. Will be there later tonight

LightMyPath Star

what? This looks like a live action type of thing from parasite the maxim.... the anime. Did they steal from the anime/manga and make it into a kdrama?

L.C.

Oh btw. We do like Parasyte a lot though. It exceeded expectations

Rock Lee

from the the showrunners* not yall just to clarify lol

Mochi

I VOTE GOODBYE EARTH A MILLION BUCKS DOWN THIS WAS DELAYED FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR

Mochi

yes thats wise

LightMyPath Star

Parasyte isn’t tooo popular. We chose it cuz it’s short on episodes and length. It allows me some time before we commit to something longer. Between lovely runner, this good bye earth. If neither are strong enough go into timeless categories

Rock Lee

Yes but also no

Mya

Not entirely, just half of it.

So its high school based?

Rock Lee

Lovely Runner is perfectly fine through 6 episodes. I like it better than Twinkling Watermelon and would watch it with you guys. But it's not really a standout piece. It may be time to check out a classic show.

raguoc00

i always thought it was JH comparison 🤔 i heard there was controversy about it because people said it was way too similar and people were upset. i saw the trailer so i know what to expect in that sense. you're on discord right???

Mochi

Between you and I here I think it’s popularity has to do with the moonbin comparison and the nostalgia that it brought at least that’s what I heard on a the K-pop streets 😉 won’t say more I’m not trying to spoil

LightMyPath Star

I’m watching lovely runner currently it’s ongoing so the jury still out for me. Wish I can be of help there. I’m sorry to say I just don’t care for parasyte but a lot of people seem to like it so go with what’s popular. I just wish it was much better than it is but that’s just me. Lots of people are loving it so use your gut instinct and see the yt views etc do your magic.

LightMyPath Star

Agreed

Rock Lee

Lovely runner is really good and you guys would definitely enjoy the story. It should also do well since people talk about this the most after QOT.

Chanyeol

ayyy this show got potential. not just cuz its a spinoff of the anime lol

Danny

Lovely Runner seems good, ratings are high. People say it's cute and a fun time. Not sure if I'll watch on my own unless yall start reacting to it first though. I believe it covers some heavy and triggering social commentary. Would prefer one of the other shows that has been recommended over it at this juncture because I think I enjoy your reactions more when it's a show you are emotionally invested in over a show where you're just going through the motions but that's just my opinion. Hoping for another show with mature characters not set in high school to be frank completely honest. Actively avoiding high school casted characters.

Mochi

It’s great so far but pls watch mr queen, happiness, and pyramid game

Chewinggum

I love the lovely runner, it gives me all the good feels that I hadn't been given from some kdramas in a while. Nice mix of seriousness and humour and the female lead is just amazing.

Lola_❤️❤️

would LOVE to see lovely runner hyeyoon and wooseok have done such a great job so far
