K & J vs. Pinoy Telenovela

We have always been patronizing Korean and Japanese Dramas since the day it started airing here in our country. Does it ever occur to you guys why these dramas have huge effects on us? Bakit siya "patok na patok" sa atin? 


VS.


My own reason is that, the story line of these dramas are completely different than the story line of our dramas here in the Philippines. it's not the usual "sampalan and sabunutan" scenes. Or the plot wherein the girl is poor in the beginning of the story but due to certain circumstances, and by certain circumstances, I mean It's either the girl was the long lost daughter of a rich family OR she marries a rich husband for revenge :3 
In short, it is something different to what we usually watch for a TV drama. It's like a "breath of fresh air." That's why it is being patronized by so many Filipinos. 

I personally prefer Korean and Japanese Dramas than our own Telenovelas because it's not tiring to watch. In Korean and Japanese dramas, I am able to experience different emotions. These dramas can stir one's feelings through it's story. I laugh, I cry, I get nervous and sometimes I get excited.

This just only proves that sometimes, something different can become popular too. Well now, we can say that K and J dramas have become one of the mainstreams. But before it became one, it is something that is not of the usual TV shows of our culture.
