How do K-dramas like Cinderella at 2AM continue to captivate audiences with their blend of fantasy and romance?

The first—and most obvious—part is that “romantasies” (romantic fantasies) have a sizeable audience that enjoys them and demonstrates that enjoyment by watching them. So long as this type of programming gets good numbers, the industry will keep making them. That’s also why there continues to be a market for reality programming and crime dramas.

So as long as the industry continues to stay in touch with what the viewers want to see and then invests in making quality products, viewers will continue to be captivated by them.

The second part is the quality of the productions—the writing, the acting, and the production values (special effects, cinematography, music, costuming, sets, etc.). The Korean entertainment industry has invested a lot in getting the best writers, actors, directors, and behind-the-scenes people they can afford. And they can afford a lot, particularly when advertising dollars/won are included. As well, in the case of romantasies, that can include an extra investment for good special effects.

Hello, I have a question about astral projection. I started to get interested in this a little while after my mum passed in april. I thought I may be able to see her and speak with her if I managed to achieve astral projection. Since this interest, every time i sleep on my back I go into sleep paralysis. However, I cant progress into astral projection because it is very scary for me as I feel like I'm suffocating when this happens. I panic and force myself to wake up. This only ever happened about once a year before this. It sometimes lasts a long time. This has happened about 3 times per week since my mum died, as mentioned on a previous post. I no longer try to go into it anymore(due to the suffocating feeling), but it still happens. I read that sleep paralysis is the pathway to astral projection. Why has this started to happen so frequently since simply taking an interest in it? Is this connected to the afterlife? I am concerned about it as I now cannot seem to stop this happening. Could it be my mum trying to communicate? Im asking due to more knowledge around this in this group.

In my opinion, there are really two parts to this answer.
