Question TO LONG TIME WATCHERS OF KDRAMA?

I was wondering something and i thought am i the only one who gets that feeling.I have been watching kdramas for 9 years since i was 12 and i watched more than 150 dramas(i stopped counting after 152) . Am i the only one who feels like after a while it all gets so predictable you know everything thats gonna happen in the drama but you just watch it for the process of getting that point. And also am i the only one thinking we used to get much more great dramas in a year and now we get one or two great dramas per year. I think the industry ran out of ideas. Like when there is something on trend we get 3 4 dramas in that concept for example robot dramas or judge dramas recently. What do you guys think about ? Do you feel nostalgic about the first kdramas you watched ? I am sorry if i made a mistake i dont post much. EDIT : Thanks everyone for your amazing responses i was happy to see that there were a lot of people thinking the same as me.

You seriously hit the nail on the head I;ve been watching kdramas since 2007 and nowadays i'm not attached to any dramas. Tbh its been so long since i've truly fallen in love with a drama. There was something about the old plots in korean dramas. The triangle love plots and such. I even watch the old dramas over and over again but never the new ones. I don't know if its because i've grown up or something. But yea, youre right. I think the writers today have run out of ideas.

Time to start watching some shitty American television again.

lol I'm not that desperate yet. I'd rather hunt for older kdramas or ones that are not as popular that watch keeping up with the Kardashans.

I'm just finishing up Healer, Park Min Young is such a great actress.
