hidden gems (dramas/movies)

drama (12);

comedy about a quirky detective and her rag-tag team of friends trying to catch a serial killer, K. 

unlike any other kdrama i've seen, and as a bonus comes with a 10/10 soundtrack!

drama (16);

a detective, whose sick daughter is kidnapped, meets an amnesiac man with an evil identical twin.

web drama;

a cute not-so high school romance about a girl whose crush dies on her birthday, and 10 years later stumbling upon photographs that send her back in time to before he passes. 

tw: topic of suicide

it's short, it's cute, it's a nice filler drama.

drama (16);

serial killings occur in 1984, they catch who they believe to be the killer, but 35 years later, they begin again. a korean detective, a british doctor, and an fbi agent work together to solve it, but something tell them that they are all hiding secrets.

i swear if this show came out when it was filmed, in 2019, it would've been the biggest crime drama of the year

movie;

when a man dies, his boyfriend is the beneficiary, his (ex-)wife is pissed and wants the boyfriend to give it to her teenage son instead.  over time, they begin to get to know the man, realising he might not be as bad as they first thought.

heartwarming movie about the struggles of being gay, love, and grief paired with some great cinematography. what's not to love?

movie;

after her son gets in an accident and falls into a coma, a mother realises that her son's male bestfiend maybe be a little more than a friend to her son. 

a film about learning, through the eyes of an older woman who was traditionally raised having her beliefs shattered by the revelation that her son is gay.

short drama (8 x 30mins);

two university students become neighbours, become roommates, become friends, and, maybe, something more.

an extrovert vs an introvert on being gay. truly a LGBT+ show for LGBT+ people, but it is also for those who are wanting to learn about what it's like. i wish everyone could watch this show.

drama (12);

a man stumbles upon a village of ghosts whose bodies haven't been found. 

this show has some of my favourite characters in all the kdramas i've seen - thomas, yeo na, and joon ho. there is no drama quite like this one, it's very therapeutic -- made me cry my eyes out.
