Dramas 2025
This is a new list I am creating after I took a ~2 year break from finishing any dramas. To record down which shows I watched in 2025, and if I have any thoughts on them.
-
1. Love in the Clouds
Chinese Drama - 2025, 36 episodes
A show about identity, belonging, and the struggles one faces when presented with conflicting aspects of identity and belonging. Amazing OST, very visually-appealing cast, and decently executed storyline. Outstanding performance by Yu Cheng En. Some plot holes and confusing points are present, but the overall story is comprehensible and definitely enjoyable.
-
2. Mask Girl
Korean Drama - 2023, 7 episodes
A very disturbing show. Describes how messed up beauty standards are in the entertainment industry, and shows the questionable and disgusting side of people and society - sexual assault, stalking, perversion, abuse (psychological, emotional, and physical), revenge, and injustice. Phenomenal performance by Lee Han Byeol, her emotions felt so raw and real.

3. Birthcare Center
Korean Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
A show navigating the uncertainties of new motherhood. Focuses on the theme of "being myself" and "being a mother".
-
4. Fu Ren Bie Kou Le, Ni Lao Gong You Wan Yi Jia Chan
Chinese Drama - 2024, 74 episodes
My first vertical/short C-Drama. A show about two people in a contract marriage, trying to make it work while navigating comical static villainous characters and a web of lies from the male love interest.
-
5. A Familiar Stranger
Chinese Drama - 2022, 18 episodes
A show about a couple who are in an arranged marriage, except they've met before and already had each other in their hearts. Except! There's a juicy twist - don't judge a book by its cover, and don't judge people by their outward appearance. P.S. Cheng Lei's nose is so sharp and triangular, wow!
