@Mr. P and @Tiffany, and anyone else who likes shows that don’t require emotional investment,
Here’s my list of shows I would call, “mediocre but fun to watch.”. Not the same as “train wrecks.” Some of these go over 7.0 on MDL. I would rewatch these.
Hard Love Mission (2022) (stars Tonliew) I loved this despite the super low rating. Mr. P does too.
Fan Service (2026)
Takumi-kun Series: Drama (2025)
Star Struck (2023) (stars Zuho from SF9)
I Am Your King (2017)
Lost in Kyoto (2025) I actually gave this an 8.0
Blossom Campus (2024) I also gave this an 8.0
Unforgotten Night (2022)
Venus in the Sky (2023) explicit
2 Moons 2: The Ambassador (2022) I actually liked all the 2 Moons series, even #3
Mission to the Moon (2025)
Kiss Kiss Sxx: Not a BL (2025) I liked this one, even though most people didn’t. I actually enjoyed the whole series, although some are definitely better than others. “Sleep Around, Still Mine” was by far my favorite. You can find them all listed and rated separately on MDL, and they’re all now on Gaga.
Bump Up Business (2023) blatant promotion for K-pop group ONLYONEOF and no kiss
Lover Merman (2025) great theme song, veers into train wreck territory
Bad Guy, My Boss (2024) and Love Alert (2025) watch if you like this couple
Past-Senger (2023)
Golden Blood (2021) not the same as “My Golden Blood (2025)”
Be Mine Superstar (2023)
Restart(ed) (2022) cutie-fest recommended by Mr. P. Loved it!
Sweetheart Service (2025) I gave this an 8.5
Season of Love in Shimane (2025) explicit, and much better than Kiseki Chapter 2
Tinted with You (2021) stars Junhee in cute period drama
Secret Crush on You (2022) everyone’s favorite bad drama
Doctor’s Mine (2025) 2nd couple is from Mission to the Moon, and they’re great
Enchanté (2022) ForceBook’s first show together
Magic Move (2026) watch for 2nd couple especially
Ok, I was going by lowest to highest MDL rating, and once they go above 7.1 there are a lot of shows I liked and might actually call good. So I’ll end here. Sorry I didn’t include all the links above, but I got most.
Sorry the list is so long, I got a little carried away. Top 3 “watch for the cuties” despite low ratings would be Hard Love Mission, Restart(ed), and Lover Merman. Mr. P I know would choose Takumi-kun over Lover Merman, though.
