5 K-Dramas Viewers Couldn't Finish in December 2025: Why 'Dynamite Kiss' Fell Short
Exploring the 5 K-Dramas viewers couldn't finish in December 2025, including the Netflix series 'Dynamite Kiss'. Analyzing why these high-anticipation shows failed.
Big budgets and star power didn't guarantee a happy ending. In December 2025, several highly anticipated series saw viewers checking out long before the final credits rolled. According to Koreaboo, five specific K-Dramas struggled to keep their audience's attention during the year-end season.
Trends Behind the 2025 December Dropped K-dramas
Leading the list of disappointments is the Netflix original rom-com Dynamite Kiss. Released on November 12, 2025, the show initially topped watch lists but quickly lost momentum. Viewers cited a lack of chemistry and repetitive tropes as the primary reasons they stopped watching by mid-episode.
This trend highlights a growing "content fatigue" among global fans. With an overwhelming number of choices on streaming platforms, audiences no longer feel obligated to finish a series that doesn't hook them within the first two episodes. It's a harsh reality for production companies that relied on Hallyu stars to carry weak scripts.
