Day 6: Your least favorite Asian Drama?
Day 6: Your least favorite Asian Drama?
There's a few. And they're all Taiwanese. Taiwanese dramas are either superrr good or they can
bore you to death. I'm gonna talk mainly about one, and then list 2 other bad ones. Just to make sure you don't watch them.
Meteor Garden 1. Soo freaking bad. I think there's like a 2. Whatever. Super old drama. Aired in 2001. And the actors and actresses in this drama has changed
DRAMATICALLY. All the guys became 10 times hotter and the girls became 10 times prettier. That's not the point..okay..
Synopsis:
"The story centers around a poor teenage girl named Shan Cai (Barbie Hsu), who at the insistence of her parents goes to a university for rich people. The university is dominated by Dao Ming Si (Jerry Yan), Hua Ze Lei (Vic Zhou), Mei Zuo (Vanness Wu) and Xi Men (Ken Chu), four rich and handsome but arrogant students collectively known as 'F4', short for 'Flower 4'. They are heirs to four rich and influential families in Taiwan. They terrorize the school by handing out red cards to those they do not like, which allows other students to bully the victims until they leave the school.
After one of Shan Cai's friends receives the wrath of F4's leader, Dao Ming Si, and receives a red card, Shan Cai stands up to Dao Ming Si and slaps him, which in turn results in a red card of her own. However, Shan Cai's persistence in standing up for what is right gradually gains F4's respect and Dao Ming Si falls in love with her."
The plot may sound interesting but it is
SUCHH a drag. There's 27 episodes by the way. Also, the people in here can't act. They have
horrible acting skills and it looks and sounds like they're just reading off the script. Please don't watch it. I'm begging you.
These actors have
improved a LOT though. Like the 2nd guy from the left. I watched a more recent drama of him and he's hella funny in that drama. Moving on...other bad dramas:
- E Nu A Chu. There's no English title for this one. The actors and actresses were pretty bad in this one too. And there was a boring plot. And it draggged on.
- Rice Family. This one actually isn't that bad. The beginning was reallyy good. There was a good hook. And the actors and actresses had good acting skills. But after like the 20th or 30th episode, it was all a drag. Veryy boring. And it goes on all the way to episode 60. I didn't finish it.
