Dramaworld is a fun mini-series that makes fun of Korean Drama tropes and characterization, and I gave it such a high rating because it didn't take itself seriously.

Story: Claire is a massive K-Drama fan who by some crazy miracle gets sucked into her favorite drama "Taste of Love." She then becomes a Facilitator, someone who works behind the scenes to make sure the characters get their happy endings. She's introduced to fellow Facilitator Seth who quickly shows her the ropes and recruits her. See, something bad is happening in Dramaworld, and the story is in major trouble. It's then up to Claire to get it back on track so our beloved characters get their happily ever afters.

Pros: I thought the story was enjoyable, and I was certainly engaged with the story. I laughed and shouted at my screen in frustration, and there WAS A TWIST THAT I WASN'T EXPECTING, so that was pleasantly surprising. The best part was the portrayal of your stereotypical K-Drama characters and the tropes, and I found myself nodding and laughing as all the best parts of a K-Drama that make you roll your eyes were pointed out. You have the hot, but arrogant leading man, the sweet leading woman, the secondary shady woman, the second male lead, the overbearing mother, etc. The way they poked fun at the tropes was great too. For example, rushing to a help a guy after he's hit by a car will cause him to fall in love with you at first sight, there's the "magnetic pull," where drunken piggyback rides are galore, female characters will always be saved by a male suitor before hitting the ground from fainting or tripping, the "mandatory" hot show scene so the leading male can show off his abs,  flashbacks that cause time to stop, dreams can be manipulated to further the story, etc.

Cons: I wanted more character development. Not necessarily with the characters of "Taste of Love" since their roles were that of your cliched drama characters (and their memories are reset when their drama comes to an end, with them adopting new personalities and stories for the next drama), but more with Claire and Seth. Of course this is a 10 episode 15-20 minute series so I can understand the lack of development.

Overall: It's a fun, creative comedy series to watch if you're not looking for anything serious or gut-wrenching. I will say that for a short show it pulled me in, and even had a few surprising twists and a pretty great cliffhanger that has my hopes high for a second installment; and maybe even some more character development. I mean the possibilities are endless.
