-
13. Please Feel at Ease Mr. Ling
Chinese Drama - 2021, 24 episodes

39. Only for Love
Chinese Drama - 2023, 36 episodes
March 30
-loved the main couple and grew to like the others, but the writing is basic and unoriginal, the characters should've had more depth, and more thought and care should've gone into making the scenes cohesive
-
40. Undercover High School
Korean Drama - 2025, 12 episodes
March 30
- main leads being immature is not comedic; the plot is rather illogical and mediocre, and the characters lack depth finished it because the main couple is cute
-
41. Karma
Korean Drama - 2025, 6 episodes
April 5
-The concept of karma is simplistic, yet it often feels somewhat reductive when applied to the narrative. While I appreciate the acting the writing left much to be desired. The repetitive nature of the scenes felt overemphasized, as if the story were being forcefully presented rather than unfolding naturally. After binge-watching the series, I was left with a lingering sense of confusion — questioning the purpose behind the writing and wondering what the overall intent truly was
-

62. Doctor John
Korean Drama - 2019, 32 episodes
May 4
-The show started off great but the plot fell apart toward the end. I disliked the attempt to make the audience empathize with the nurse—it felt forced. She has no respect for the justice system and the conflict resolution was simply him being understanding of her no growth or apology from her part. He looked the other way when she did something terrible yet she was terrible to him. The storyline about them nearly firing him because of his genetic condition was absurd and unrealistic, not to mention illegal in South Korea. On top of that, whoever did the female lead’s hair extensions needs to be fired they were so bad, they actually distracted me from the show. That stylist needs to consider a different career path. It took me forever to finish because it really just fell apart in the end. Such a shame because I really liked the ML's character but it's not going on either of my favorites lists despite getting an 8.

65. Futtara Doshaburi
Japanese Drama - 2025, 7 episodes
May 11
-beautifully written grey characters with well thought out depth the writing was outstanding the catalyst were realistic and thought about thoroughly. I really enjoyed the dynamic between the two their banter and chemistry were off the charts. Their acting showed they had a deep understanding of their characters. The conversations they had with their partners were also exceptional but I can't give it more than an 8 because it is extremely one sided. I needed to see the value in the relationships they were in at the start nonetheless it has made it to my BL list
-
66. Something's Not Right
Korean Drama - 2025, 8 episodes
May 12
-the first few episodes were cute but by the end I didn't want anyone to get together. None of them were likeable. (I only found myself understanding of the ML) The grey characters don't make sense whatsoever and the acting didn't help their characters at all it was the bare minimum. The writer really weaved in the second couple at the wrong times and then proceeded to not even give them a proper story. This should've been a J BL would've been done so much better. This type of miscommunication trope is the worst.

- FML is a bit too childish for my taste, and the writing isn’t quite up to the quality I was expecting. I was hoping for something with a more serene, wintry vibe, but this just doesn't deliver the level of quality I was looking for
