In terms of plot and pacing, which one is better: Romance is a Bonus Book or Crash Landing on You? Besides the “pretty” (too obvious? haha), I’m looking for a feel good drama, CLOY seems quite melo..
CLOY actually has a lot of humor. But also the pacing felt slow to me. It was very enjoyable until 14.. Then it got really draggy.
I loved RIABB too. I don’t remember it being draggy.. But, I live watched it and didn’t binge. I would personally recommend RIABB over CLOY.
Thanks! I got that impression from the comments on the CLOY recaps, it seemed that the story dragged a lot towards the end… guess I’ll end up watching RIABB
Both aren’t exactly feel good. There are other shows that come in this category but if you specifically want to decide between these two then RIABB will be more feel good.
Thank you, I also think RIABB will be better! It’s not that I want to choose between those two, but my mother wants to watch a kdrama (for the first time ever – quarentine effects haha) but she doesn´t understand english subs, so I have to choose between the dramas that are available on Netflix on my country (which aren’t that many -.-)
Other option could be “When The Camelia Blooms” – I have watched it and I’ve liked it, but I don’t know if its too “slow” for a person watching a kdrama for the first time.
I think RIABB or CLOY will make more of an impact.

CLOY is funnier but the eps are quite long so for a first-timer RIABB is prolly better – it’s light, funny, sweet and yes also very pretty 🙂

I loved RIABB, and was bored to sleep with CLOY.
