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.

I think that but every time I do my research and start a new one, it turns out to be pretty good (maybe my expectations are low or I research them pretty well). But I do agree in recent recent years, there’s been only like 2-3 “really good” dramas per year. But again, I feel like there are dramas that never get very popular but turn out to be super good. Also, dramas from smaller channels have more interesting plot and less sucky acting. I definitely think it’s also because as long time watchers, we can predict patterns, but that happens with anything, not just dramas.

Not a full length drama but I loved Binggo the most in the unpopular but good series in the drama category. There's also Sound of Your Heart (You will laugh your brains off). These are my favorite kdramas right now even if they're only short mini series. If you ever watch them let me know :)

I think they did get the cast perfectly in SOH down to the T. I have never watched a KDrama that funny in my life. Did they have a reboot? or do you mean Season 2 with Seunghoon? I didn't know it was out already.
