Why are there no recent posts of Reply 1994 and Heirs?

Readers of this blog would probably be familiar with my enthusiasm in sharing my thoughts with both dramas but since I have not found my courage to continue talking about them, I don't think I could be doing the same thing as I did before. So why am I here? Perhaps to explain myself which I don't usually do and give everyone a reason why it might take a while before I finish watching these two series.

Heirs is a good fluff I must say but other than that, everything is forgettable. You only get to enjoy it the moment you are watching but when it is not, there's not much substance to remember. So I finished episode 18 a week ago and I have yet to continue the finale maybe because I now have an idea of the ending (even though everyone has already predicted it from the start) and second, there is a thin line between not wanting to let go of it and just leaving everything like Heirs never happened. Though that would be so harsh to talk about. So yeah, maybe after I finish this, I would be ready for the review. Expect nothing much from it though as you may have known, majority of the things I write is driven by passion. And for Heirs, I'm drained to analyze everything as there wouldn't be much to think about based on the storyline.

Meanwhile for Reply 1994, believe that this drama exceeded my expectations of it. However, it has not exceeded Reply 1997. Recently, I've been comparing these two a lot in the field of storyline and most importantly character development. As I have found appreciation for this drama, I realized that I slowly expected much. Hence after maybe episode 10 (I'm now at 15) nothing really materialized unlike for the first half of the series wherein it was more interesting to witness their friendship. I still love the life lessons that embarks in each episode though.

But I've grown tired of guessing who might end up with Na Jung. Like, it's getting more and more frustrating and the fact that this drama has escalated a heated shipping clash online among followers is not so impressive at all. Well I am #TEAMTRASH but I am conflicted. Like it would make you really feel so bad, you can't even stand to support your ship. Then I reached a point of not caring anymore. Whoever ends up with whom doesn't matter anymore. I just don't want to exhaust myself from these things. You just can't help but be engaged to the heated rivalry of Chilbong and Trash, it pushed me away. I got scared, yes. But the writing become dull as well because they become more focused into the romance. I just want that out of my system so I decided to lie low in watching.

That's it. Maybe, you can share to me your thoughts about Heirs and Reply and also with my recent reaction to them dramas.
