While I'm on the topic of idol dramas, here's some basic characteristics of idol dramas that I have observed.

1) There is a main couple ( Girl A and Guy A)
2) Right at the start of the show, there will be a girl romantically linked with Guy A, which we shall label as Girl B.
3) Guy A and Girl A's realtionship will start to blossom as well, commonly through endless conflicts or through some I-drop-my-book-u-help-me-pick-up-our-eyes-met-n-sizzled scenes.
4) As the show proceeds, Guy B will enter the scene and woo Girl A.
5) Guy A will start giving Girl B the cold shoulder after realising that Girl A is the one and only for him.
6) The stock market now is that Girl A is super popular, with two guys after her( must be two guys, no more no less, this is the magical no.). Girl B is the kind of stocks that everyone wants to drop to prevent incurring of further losses.
7) Girl B, to win back her love, will evolve overnight from meek dove to scheming witch.
8) She will hunt down Guy B( who will be the one who's losing out in the relay) and either coerce or spite or seduce or con him into forming an alliance with her.
(Normally, underhand methods are employed such as letting Guy B catch Girl A and Guy A acting intimately. Witch and wizard will be hiding around some bend or corner typically.)
9) So, Mission Break-them-up will be launched in full force and misunderstandings will lead to cracks in Girl and Guy A's relationship. Caution to all viewers:The weather is always unusually calm before a storm. In other words, sicky sweet lines and mush and fluff may THREATEN YOUR WELL-BEING.
10) Mission goes extremely well and a major fight erupts. Girl A will tell Guy A, " It's ok if everyone don't believe me as long as you do." Typically, Guy A will be tempted to believe her but in a fit of spite, would say the otherwise OR he would just keep his piece and the Girl A runs off in a burst of tears. Fans will exclaim, " Oh my, so sad so poor thing."
11) Guy B will become soft-hearted when he sees his beloved Girl A heartbroken after the big fight. Guy B will be the one lending his shoulder to Girl A, and there will be the sad puupy look in his eyes when he was partly responsible , and all the girls in front of the tv will go, " Awww...choose Guy B! Choose Guy B!"
12) Guy B will either initiate his withdrawal from the alliance with the witch or
expose the witch and her evil scheme. (Note: at this point, fans will normally want to wring off the witch's neck themselves and knock some sense into Guy A, who will be so bewitched by the witch his IQ drops to zero)
13) All's well goes well and Girl A will end up with Guy A after some apologizing here and there, more goosebumps, and some tactics to con young girls.

Note: Girl A is normally very cheerful, doesn't do well at school, is rather clumsy, sticks fast to her principles, and is brave enough to speak up for herself or others.
Guy A is usually Ice Prince, someone who is shy and doesn't know how to expresses his love, can be very sensitive, and a big jerk during quarrels.It is an advantage for Guy A to come from an influential family.
Girl B is normally prim and proper, meek and gentle, and comes from a well-to-do family.
Guy B is normally opposite of Guy A, more flamboyant, loud, bolder sense of fashion and expresses his thoughts clearly.

Variations may occur, such as Guy A's mother preferring Girl B over Girl A and such, but they are pretty much the same.
Yes, this is the power of idol dramas over us.
We love them even though they are all the same.
Why you ask?
Maybe because it was programmed into our genes to desire for love and to be loved.
