Sketch has gotten so good and Hungry Wok is languishing in parental disapproval banality. HW had such a creative beginning, and I didn’t see the point of Sketch at first. K-dramas always surprise.
I find it weird that Greasy Melo was so complex and innovative and now it’s just an OTP AGAINST THE ODDS like every other kdrama. I mean, I’m still loving it because I love the OTP. But I’d describe some of the plot resolutions as “banal” as well. Comparatively speaking at least.
Sketch? I haven’t heard good things about it but obviously you’re enjoying it.
Yea, I did not like it for a long time because it seemed futile to work on sketches you couldn’t change. However one character eventually can change the seen future, and the plot twists get really good around episode 10. Mr. X (not so bad guy going after the very bad guys) is also very complex. I found myself wanting things to work out for him, and then being surprised the show made me feel that way because Mr. X is awful. I’m not sure I’d ever have gotten to episode 10 though if I wasn’t on summer break as a teacher.

I’m still intrigued by Sketch. It’s a little slower paced maybe than most thrillers, but the plot twists have been so good.
