Shinira bulriwoon sanai (2010)
The Only Kdrama I've Never Finished
Over 20 years as a kdrama viewer and lover, and this is the only one I've ever stopped watching. I've disliked other dramas before but at least they kept things together. The premise and concept of this story was fine in theory, but the execution was nonsensical farcical and campy melodrama to the point that my eyes glazed over and I stopped watching mid-episode. This was otherwise ultimately utterly forgettable; I can't even remember if I made it halfway through the series before moving on to far better programs.
Chosen (2018)
Hysterically Preposterous
"Season 1" was farcical in the worst way with some decent acting working overtime to rescue an unoriginal premise and a plot full of holes. "Season 2" managed to prove that the show COULD get worse and lost nearly all of the already limited charm/appeal of the first season. You don't even need to speak Russian, Mandarin, or English to know that even simple line delivery was stilted and terrible. I feel bad speaking so negatively about people's work and efforts, but they've already been paid and the show was just awful!
