I am a Christian (MCGI), a future licensed Architect (God willing), a writer, an artist, a music-lover, a movie-geek, and a drama fan. I am called "CGM" as an artist or called by my name simply. As a writer, I am "lingerintheshadows".
As a DRAMA FAN:
I love strong and smart leads. I am more inclined to legal/crime/mystery dramas although, I am open to any genre. I watch different types (language/country origin), not just korean. I am just not fond of young and school love. I like such stories where the leads have professions and are pretty responsible to themselves. A "dynamic duo", a "golden trio", and an "amazing teamwork" are a plus for me. "Lack of romance" is not a minus. As long as the plot is strong and unique, I am in! However, if there is romance, even a subtle one, I ship characters (not actors), and I ship HARD.
I watch dramas mainly for plots, secondly for cast. I am someone who separates actors from characters. I praise actors with their acting and not their personalities. If somehow I praise an actor with a bad image, I'm sorry. I seldom know an actor's background. I really don't search. But, that is definitely minus points, personally. However, professionally, it doesn't matter. I can't judge and base my reviews with something I am not even aware of. Yes, I do follow some actors, but only a few. I don't usually follow. I don't usually care.
PS. I sometimes sub Japanese dramas, too. Sometimes.
Well... That's all, and have a nice day, minna-san!
