  1. #KDrama #DNAlover was not great, to be kind. BUT, reading of a high profile megabudget #KDrama in which a main female character ended up being little more than a disposable uterus made me even more impressed with the supporting arc which had moved me to stick with DNA Lover. The tertiary couple there featured a male character with aspermia, and DINK was explicitly promoted as a perfectly valid lifestyle. A very BIG contrast to the unsubtle propaganda of the other #KDrama, it seems to me.

  6. Finally done with #KDrama #DNAlover , a weirdly retro Drama in many ways. The legally-mandated serial killer arc helped bloat it out to 16 eps, but also ticked lots of OLD tropes - painful separation, a time skip and a finale where the OTP got together in LITERALLY the last 5 minutes - exactly as I called it at the start of the 75 min finale. Throwing in the 'mother from hell redeemed cos she's sick' was vintage eyeroll, and ending on a hug was very retro bland

  11. FFing through #KDrama #DNAlover to find out how one of the support pairings turns out, I'm being reminded that I have a really weird, narrow fetishist niche when it comes to #KDrama, one that is almost impossible to find examples of from this decade.

    It's apparently freaky kink I should be ashamed of, but for some weird reason., I can't help myself. I just like my romcoms

  21. Watching #KDrama #DNAlover and being reminded of a trend in #KDrama I find really disturbing: Whiteface

    The Asian obsession with fair skin is ages old, of course, but in #KDramas of 10+ years ago, the FL was "only" unnaturally fair. Now it seems that the norm is for them to be like the FL in this Drama, with faces that are literally white; so white as to make the average European seem swarthy by comparison.

  26. Into episode 2 of #KDrama #DNAlover and already a drop is looming. Batsh*to crazy pseudo-science I can handle in a Drama, but the FL's insistence that literally every single aspect of a human's life is entirely and irrevocably governed by DNA is getting VERY old, VERY fast. The cynic in me sees it as Confucian propaganda - stay in your lane plebs, where your genes put you.

  31. I was in my mid 40s when I watched my first #KDrama 12 years ago. Watching episode 1 of #KDrama #DNAlover has raised an important question:

    Will I live long enough to ever see a #KDrama that recognizes there is nothing even remotely cute or funny about people drinking themselves unconscious? If I end up with the lifespan of the bristlecone pine, then just maybe. But I doubt it

    DNA Lover. I know it's a silly one, full of predictable tropes, and even pseudo-scientific, however it raises serious questions about human flaws in a funny and light way.
    And so it grew on me.

  41. @MisuseCase exactly! The FL is silly, the plot can even be absurd at times, but this all happens in a way that not only it's very funny, but it's also a deep thoughts catalyzer 😆
    I can't fully explain the reactions this #kdrama provokes 😂

  46. @whoosh funny how we have different reactions to a specific #kdrama 😄
    You're not someone who easily drops a drama and it's hilarious how I am excited about #DNALover while you can't be convinced by it!

    As counter examples I dropped #MySweetMobster and #QueenOfTears, two dramas highly appreciated in this community!

  51. #kDrama Currently Airing Hell Update

    -- Romance in the House: still enjoying with 6 / 1 2 episodes out. The mystery of how one of the characters made money keeps things interesting while we watch the relationships develop.

    -- Love Next Door: With 4 / 16 episodes out, Jung So Min still is fabulous & Jung Hae In is definitely growing on me.

    -- DNA Lover: tried eps 3 today & gave up. I'll wait for someone else to tell me if it's worth it to go back.

    -- Cinderella at 2 am: Moon Sang Min has definitely improved. This one I think might be surprising. It is so cute & sweet, but the end of eps 2 throws in some trauma that I didn't expect. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

    -- No Gain, No Love: The 1st episode was fantastic - so funny. Eps 2 comes out tomorrow & I'm looking forward to it.

    It's silly, it's humour through Fremdschämen. I know it works for me, but it's definitely not for everyone.

    Also there are some deep topics raised in this show, like prejudices by personal convictions and the process leading to them.
