2025-01-01/2025-01-03 on Rakuten Viki.  27-year old Lee Yoo Young  as a charming lawyer... Yoo Si Yoon did well the double role by creating two different characters.

2025-01-03/2025-01-04  sad history of military  force, coops and internal fighting   

2025-01-04/2025-01-05  on Netflix -  nice little romantic story  on struggling poor vs rich

2025-01-06/2025-01-11  simple romantic stories 

2025-01-12/2025-01-13 - nice romantic drama.
I got quite confused with all the time travels, which part was from there and in the end, did she then remember all her travels? 

2025-01-13/2025-01-13  
-   liked Kim Hye Hoons's  alto voice and  pretty smile in "lovely runner" so I wanted to see her again in this movie...

2025-01-13/2025-01-16 on Netflix  --- The basic storyline was fine, but fine-tuning of the characters was poor. Especially the criminal characters were written as unbelievably dumb or stupid.  I think Min Namkoong  must have enjoyed playing his role a lot. Others had a more hard time to accomplish their roles.

2025-01-16/2025-01-18  on Netflix  - Well written storyline by  Choi Bo Rim  and  successful casting on all major roles made I can recommend this as an enjoyable watch all the way.  The friendship and  growing independence of women was brought up very well.  Some side-stories could have been developed further - e.g.  the seen infidelty and its effects later on.   Be warned that this may touch your feelings, and make you cry and laugh.  

2025-01-18/2025-01-18   - second time to watch this.  A really tough and heartbreaking but still a survival story about child abuse.  Do not watch this if you are feeling sad already.  Han Ji Min and Kim Shi Ah  did a great job in their roles. 

2025-01-20/2025-01-20   on Rakuten Viki - some parts filmed on Jeju - 

2025-01-16/2025-01-19 - on Rakuten viki.   ghosts,  killers and some romance.  Hardly recognized the little older  Bang Min Ah - and I had seen her already in Hometown Cha cha cha.

2025-01-24/2025-01-25  on Netflix --  very good  doctor drama on trauma surgeons

2025-01-25/2025-01-27 on Netflix  -  surprized me by being  rather a murder mystery than a romantic story, although there was some romance, too.

2025-01-22/2025-02-01  on Rakuten Viki in English (Netflix in Finnish comes later) - story is interesting, acting a bit overdone in some spots. 

2025-02-01/2025-02-01 on Rakuten Viki -  Actress Park Eun Bin in a small part.

2025-02-01/2025-02-02 - if you like tap dancing, you might like this movie. 

2025-01-23/2025-02-06 on Rakuten Viki

2025-02-08/2025-02-08 on Rakuten Viki -  fast moving story on hopelessness, betrayal, man-hunting and eventually, hope.  

2025-01-09/2025-02-12  - on Rakuten Viki  - production was very good.  some of the supporting actors could have been a bit better, thus not 10/10.

2025-02-12/2025-02-13  on  Rakuten Viki  (episodes 13 and 14   of the original drama there)

2025-02-11/2025-02-13  on Netflix - beautiful outdoor sceneries,   Interesting Ainu culture, realistic or not, but seems to be presented in a positive spirit.  seems to continue later...

2025-02-14/2025-02-16  - on Netflix - - nice classical music on background most of the time

Uee in her lead actress role won MBC Drama Awards Grand Prize (Daesang) in 2016.

2025-01-12/2025-02-16  -  last episode on Feb 14, 2025 on Rakuten Viki.   Enjoyed Han Ji Min's cute laughter once again. She was one of my first favourites.

2025-02-16/2025-02-16  -  on Rakuten Viki with the title "Cadaver".  Very weird and dark mystery movie with 25-year old Han Ji Min in the lead role.

2025-02-16/2025-02-18  on Netflix (Finnish subtitles by Mari Harve, ep. 7)

2025-02-19/2025-02.-21  on Rakuten Viki and Netflix (in Finnish)

2025-03-22/2025-04-05   on Rakuten Viki  -- IU at 22 was so great already in this drama.

2025-04-06/2025-04-06   on Netflix,  presenting IU in all episodes.

2025-03-25/2025-04-06  weird story -  Doona is really gloomy here.

2025-04-05/2025-04-10  on Netflix

2025-04-07/2025-04-12 --  this  comedy was almost a parody.   imho, a lot of "overacting", however   Jin Ki Joo  in the female lead role  did very well in her quite cute acting. 

2025-04-12/2025-04-13  on Rakuten Viki.  Short episodes, very simplistic. Story was interesting and the female lead had some effort buth otherwise  not really worth seeing. 

2025-04-05/2025-04-21

2025-04-10/2025-04-23   

2025-04-132025-04-27 on Netflix in Finnish.  A comedy with some slowly evolving romance.  

2025-04-28/2025-04-28 on Rakuten Viki.  

2025-04-28/2025-05-01 on Rakuten Viki 

2025-04-28 put on hold.  a bit boring?

2025-05-01/2025-03-08  on Rakuten VIki.   The 24th and last episode had three scenes at the  Love tree in Buyeo Garimseong fortress (see thelist for other  dramas filmed there)

2025-05-08/2025-05-11  on Netflix.   Story and acting was quite ok, beginning was a bit slow and confusing  and the ending... 

2025-05-09/2025-05-11 on Rakuten VIki.   murky, dark movie

2025-05-12/2025-05-13 on Netflix -- very violent K-18

2025-05-13/2025-05-14   still very violent but a little bit less fighting,  K-18

2025-05-14/2025-05-15 on Netflix

2025-05-09/2025-05-17  on Netflix with English subs

2025-05-17/2025-05-20 on Netflix in English - A psychological thriller that keeps you wondering until the end - two of my favourite actresses did their kead  roles very well -Kim Hee Sun and Oh Na Ra..  Screenwriter Baek Mi Kyung has written many successful dramas!

2025-05-20/2025-05-24  on Netflix in English. While the drama concentrates on singers there were many scenes with breakdancing.  It was fun to see Bae Suzy (as Go Hye Mi) b. 1988  and IU (Kim Pil Sook) b.1993.  in their youth doing so well already.   Kim Soo Hyun (Song Sam Dong) was not so convincing.  Jang  Woo Young (Jason) has concentrated on his music career after this single drama.

2025-05-24/2025-06-01 -   star IU (b. 1993) in her first female lead role. 

2025-05-17/2025-06-04 on Netflix. Storyline was a bit confusing. Quite violent, unpleasantly so.  Jo Bo Ah very good once again.

2025-06-08/2025-06-18  on Netflix -- storyline was a bit boring but active was nice, enjoyed  Han Ji Min in a totally different role than the previous drama. She seemed much younger here.

2025-06-20/2025-06-22 on Netflix     a story with several assassinations and conspiracies with some minor romantic hints

2025-06-23/2025-06-25  on Rakuten Viki -  funny, with some action, ending was a bit boring.

2025-06-28/2026-06-29   on Netflix - K18 very violent and bloody with a lot of raw killing

2025-06-26/2025-06-28 on Rakuten Viki -  the storyline was ok, and the male and female leads did their roles very well but for many others the acting was not so good, rather stiff and unnatural.  Perhaps a problem in the directing because so many failed to produce good and natural performance?    Having seen 500+ dramas this underperformance of acting somehow stood out.  I've seen several of these actors doing better in other dramas.

2025-06-29/2025-07-01  on Rakuten VIki --  with some nice peaceful music 

2025-07-03/2025-07-09    on Rakuten Viki   enjoyed the calm romantic OST

2025-07-10/2025-07-16    award winning drama with Park Eun Bin - on Netflix 

2025-07-16/2025-07-21   on Netflix
