Thats the best thing about the foreign adaptations on Netflix. Hollywood isnt involved, the formulas are different, the bars of acceptability are different, audience expectations are really different.

They are so much less predictable.

While true, a lot of korean shows do become victims of studios milking the shit out of them with sequels because they became popular. Being a foreign show doesn’t exempt them from greedy studios.
