I get irrationally irritated at K-Drama adaptations outperforming Japanese source material in terms of popularity

at no point have I ever found the adaptation to be an improvement in terms of general execution

I'm also less invested in an adaptation in a language I don't speak, ok

[(Anonymous)]

I get it, I tend to have a similar attitude to US adaptations of British source material.

[(Anonymous)]

I feel the same even if it feels kinda racist. Like, where were all these K-pop people during L'arc en Ciel's heyday? So many manga and light novels go ignored or under-sung in Japan but ooooh Korea adapts it, now it's cool? That's really weird.

[(Anonymous)]

L'arc en Ciel was formed 1991, 35 years ago. If you're asking where the current gen of kpop fans was back then, the answer is probably "not yet born"

[(Anonymous)]

I can understand that, but personally, I like the Korean adaptation of Boys Over Flowers better than the Japanese one and I thought the Taiwanese adaptation of Mars was pretty good. Also, Absolute Boyfriend has an adaptation that’s not Japanese?

[(Anonymous)]

Interesting, I distinctly remember Boys Over Flowers as "that one Korean adaptation that completely ruined everything" according to fans. I never got into the original manga much so I didn't check out any adaptations and can't say what they changed, maybe some people like it for the exact changes others hate.
