Arclei:
Haven't heard from you in quite some time, hope you're doing well ^^ Whenever you're around, we should get back to our buddy-watches!
Hi hi, hope you're doing well. Let us know when you're able to continue with the buddy-watches!
Hello my lovely Arclei and SIMI,
I am sorry I have been away for a long time. I going through big changes, in real life right now and I had to focus on that. I was just overwhelmed. But it is a good milestone. So don't worry.
So I am sorry for letting down our buddy watch, without telling you. I will come back on wenesday. I admit I miss my dramas. And I miss you all my buddies <3 . Enjoy the watch. I will resume and bulk post my though later. XOXO
But it is a good milestone. So don't worry.unbeliebubble:
Completely understandable! IRL always comes first. Glad things are going well for you!
So I am sorry for letting down our buddy watch, without telling you.unbeliebubble:
No worries, take it easy ^^ You can always catch up later or we can select a different drama/movie to watch together.
Miss you too, take care!
but is it really rr ?ree0:
Hmm, somewhat? slightly? I didn't make it very far as is usually the case when I watch airing titles so I can't speak on the later eps, but in the beginning it has some RR elements but it wasn't as RR as I thought it was gonna be xD
No clue how it ended up ranking soo high in the voting list. I guess people really liked it and it's a recent title. Though I'm not sure about a number of the titles on that list but since I haven't seen them, I can't say for sure, lol

it was more of a feminist drama than it was rr. like promoting equality, holding men accountable. with a tablespoon of RR
can i get any recommendation with a theme similar to "something in the rain".
I am looking for Soft subtle RR, older FL and younger ML, with a prominent age gap but nothing grooming worthy. like 5 years to 10 years max. has a soft vibe all over. some family is against them dating and some are on their side. a bit of drama, slice of life. ml can be clumsy feminine childish but have basic maturity and decency. FL's not annoying and is realistic.
@Arclei and @unbeliebubble
really sorry to hear about your problems, stay strong 🫂i've been away too because of irl stuff and a drama slump so bad that i was thinking of never watching dramas again *sigh* but hopefully i'm back with summer break starting. ☀️
honestly i don't have a preference with which drama we shall continue so you can def choose which one you feel more comfortable with. and any pace is fine for me :D
or we can select a different drama/movie to watch together.Arclei:
i feel like i can't commit to another drama when i know of our unfinished ones (just a *me* problem dw) but a movie... 👀
it was more of a feminist drama than it was rr.ree0:
That's a good way to put it, yeah xD I really thought we were gonna get better RR in this one. Oh well...
I am looking for Soft subtle RR, older FL and younger MLree0:
I honestly don't watch nearly as much noona as I wanna and I get a lot of my picks from your lists, so I sadly don't have any reccs that you haven't already seen T_T
i've been away too because of irl stuff and a drama slump so bad that i was thinking of never watching dramas again *sigh* but hopefully i'm back with summer break starting. ☀️Alex:
Oh, I feel this all too strongly T_T Hope your slump and irl affairs get sorted quickly and you can find joy in dramas once again! <3
honestly i don't have a preference with which drama we shall continueAlex:
Ah, okie then! I'll get to watching when I have the time!
i feel like i can't commit to another drama when i know of our unfinished ones (just a *me* problem dw) but a movie... 👀Alex:
Lmfaaaooo, I'm the same tbh. I like finishing some things before watching more xD
As for movies... Hmmm, I don't see why not? UwU I went through the movies tagged with the Gender Role Reversal tag to have a look and didn't find a whole lot (especially that I hadn't watched, lol) but Ree's list exists and I also have a lengthy RR PTW list or if you have any that you might wanna watch, we can defs arrange something when you're available ^^ I don't mind a rewatch of some I already saw either
Side note: Went ahead and requested a bunch of movies to have the tag added because FOR SOME REASON Love and Leashes of ALL movies didn't have the RR tag- like, WHAT?? I could've sworn it did??? Oh well, It will very soon tho
you can find joy in dramas once again! <3Arclei:
thank you <3 tbh finding the balance is just so hard for me
I don't mind a rewatch of some I already saw eitherArclei:
if you don't mind rewatches, I've been eyeing Exhuma for a long time 👀 but we can definitely pick something else and new for all, just a suggestion
FOR SOME REASON Love and Leashes of ALL movies didn't have the RR tag-Arclei:
genuinely H O W? i hope it wasn't removed or sth. and you're doing god's work as usual 👏
tbh finding the balance is just so hard for meAlex:
The balance between IRL and dramas or?
I've been eyeing Exhuma for a long time 👀Alex:
I'm fine giving that one a rewatch ^^ It was quite entertaining and I liked it (rather subtle on the RR tho). Gonna rewatch with my bro if we agree on it
Otherwise I'm good with something new like you said but if you want we can start with Exhuma and plan something I didn't watch yet for the next. I think for now it's gonna be just you and me anyways
genuinely H O W? i hope it wasn't removed or sth. and you're doing god's work as usual 👏Alex:
No clue! I could've sworn it had it at some point so maybe it was removed but I wouldn't know why. Maybe when the tag updates rolled around a few months back xD
The balance between IRL and dramas or?Arclei:
Yes. i feel like I'm either watching too many episodes/dramas, then get burnout and have a drama slump where I don't watch anything for weeks. but I'm working on it 💪

Okay so let me know when and I'll be ready. And enjoy the watch with your bro! I've been trying to get my sister back into watching dramas but she still resists xD

Ah, yeah, I get what you mean. I have the same 😔 I'm an all-or-nothing kinda person because doing things in moderation tends to not really work a whole lot for me. Not that that this hyperfocus/obsessive thing works a whole lot either but it's the one that brings me the most joy, lmao
Okay so let me know when and I'll be ready.Alex:
Alrighty! I'm good this weekend onwards! How should we arrange it? We agree on a day or we agree to watch it in a given time frame (say a week or so) then discuss?
I've been trying to get my sister back into watching dramas but she still resists xDAlex:
Aw that's such a shame :( Get her to watch Exhuma with you, hehehe >:) Just a quirly lil movie
Some updates, uwu
It's Okay to Not Be Okay | |
![]() | Filipino remake of the kdrama It's Okay to Not Be Okay is announced to air on July 21st Based on the trailer it seems to be quite similar to the original (I haven't watched it though so take that with a grain of salt) so hopefully it'll also be very RR. Overall, pretty cute and also nice to get more RR Filipino content Airs: July 21st, 2025 Trailers: Youtube |
Learning to Love | |
![]() | Teacher FL having to tutor host ML? Sounds like a good RR premise but I honestly have my reservations about how RR this will end up being. ML seems very suave but FL doesn't appear to be like the average jdrama FL so maybe there's hope UwU I'll add it for now Airs: July 10, 2025 Trailers: Twitter/X |
And another announced title that seems very promising in the RR Unveil: Jadewind | |
![]() | For once FL is the guard having to investigate a strange murder. Not sure what ML's role is quite yet (no clue what a Lingtai Lang is, lol) but by the looks of the trailer, FL seems to be the more badass one. I'm thinking (and hoping) for something similar to The Ingenious One (or even better) In any case, I'm sat. The rest of the drama also looks hella promising but that's besides the point, lol Airs: no release date, prolly 2026 Trailers: Youtube |
Do y'all still want these updates on titles I find or do I just quietly update the index and leave the thread posting out? Let me know ^^
