[2025] Watched List

Although the story is not that great (story is similar to Extraordinary You), I love Lee Sang Yi and Han Ji Jyun's chemistry. I accidentally rated this a bit too high.

Was really gorey (had to skip a few scenes) but overall, it was so good! Reminds me of "Moving". I hope there'd be a Season 2!!! Bae Doona is so good at acting!

Has horror elements (not scary though), heartwarming and tearjerking moments. The first 4 episodes will make you confused but curious. However, the rest of the episodes will answer your questions. 

Two characters in "Moving" made a cameo.

An overrated and a wattpad-like-drama. Didn't quite enjoy it. 

A mother's love is so beautiful and strong. Im Hwa Ryung is the Queen for a reason—living up to her title in every way. Her genuine care for everyone around her shines through, even after countless betrayals. She manages to win everyone's hearts and turn the tides in her favour. Her fierce personality only adds to her charm. She’s truly remarkable. I have a lot to learn from her even though she is just merely a fictional character.

Extra: I thought this drama would bore me because of the synopsis but I was really wrong. 

Dong Chul is the real MVP of this drama. The acting of the cult is insane because it feels so real. It's depressing to think that such things happen in reality and will never stop.

[SPOILERS AHEAD]
The only flaw is the ending. I wish there were a better closure. How will he solve his problems while taking care of the little kid at the same time?

Started off well but it became horrible after Ep 6. 

My:
- favourite Xianxia drama
- 2nd Chinese historical drama (first one is "Til the End of the Moon")

Kept me hooked from the first episode to the end. I’ll miss the days of visiting the MDL page, fangirling characters, discussing theories and waiting until 8 pm to watch. It’s been a fun ride and I have got to say, Ao Rui Peng's visual is on another level.

[SPOILERS AHEAD]: The ending isn't too satisfying for me as all my favourite characters (besides Fan Yue and Bai Shuo) died and towards the end, Heaven mentioned those who died for a good cause would be back but they didn't show it. Only marriage of Fan Yue and Bai Shuo...not that I complained but they promised and kept my hopes high.

I dropped it while it was airing because I discovered the drama had romance in it but I picked it up again. I almost missed out on a great drama just because I wasn’t interested in romance. Surprisingly, the romance was handled well. Although I admit I still skipped most of the romantic scenes, the romance didn’t overshadow the main plot and the storyline was engaging. I’m glad I gave it a chance!

[SPOILERS AHEAD]
My favourite characters are Justitia and the Angel. I'm so glad to see the Angel back and Justitia's personality is awesome and funny. People do be insulting right in front of her and she will agree with them HAHAHA Her "underlings" are funny too. I love it when they start giggling evilly while committing crimes.

My favourite medical kdrama.

I absolutely love this. Binged the whole 8 episodes in 2 days. Love all the characters and there isn't a boring moment. Inspired by a real-life retired doctor called, "Lee Guk Jong".  

Didn't expect the plot twist! A fun ride.

Dropped. Despite loving the plot and everything else, I can't stand Esther Yu's acting anymore. Initially, I watched because I saw a cute gif of her but her "cute" acting has gone overboard to my liking. Her character is too childish for someone who is a grown woman in this drama.

Poor So Woo...

Wow, her colleagues changing their minds within one second and tried to kill her-

This movie is mid. Action scenes are okay. The relationship between the Director and Chairman is crazily weird. I thought they had a romantic relationship, but it turned out they were siblings. Crazy, lol. I couldn't care less about any characters here. Also, I was expecting much more, looking at how the plot was going but it was boring. It should have been a drama rather than a movie because the ending was rushed as well. 

Really boring. I'm glad I watched 2x speed.

I felt heartbroken when Ji Yeon chose Taehwan at the end...She deserves way better. I'm disappointed that my favourite couple (Jong Hoon and Hye Jin) have so little screen time. This season is mainly focused on one contestant. I like Si-An but her scenes and the guys chasing her did not pique my interest... 

[future rewatch]
The male lead is literally the greenest flag I have ever ever seen. He is so perfect that it is unreal—most perfect ML to ever exist. I have yet to learn from him. From his personality, looks to his intelligence, organisational skills and so on. I could talk about him all day and all night. 

The main leads are mature. No misunderstandings, no heartbreaks and all those unnecessary tropes you usually find in a romance drama. This drama is so healing in a way. Paul Blanco sang the opening too. I love it.

From him running to her, to her running to him and the perfect summary of their love story at the end. It's a plus that there's a reverse role here (usually ML is the CEO and FL is the secretary but this drama is different).

Dropped. I like the cinematography. It gives off nostalgic vibe.

One of my top fave dramas of 2025!!!

Impressive from start to finish. I love everyone in this drama even the villains and side characters. The fight scenes are incredible even though they are exaggerated a lot. This drama probably have the best fighting scenes ever next to Ip Man!

[future rewatch]
- for the cinematography 
Literally the best thing i ever did is to choose to watch this over any other dramas.

The cinematography is absolutely stunning and jaw-dropping. It was crazy to learn that there was no CGI used. This modern drama is so aesthetically pleasing to watch. I have never actually seen a modern drama with such pretty settings EVER. Because of it, it is so comforting and healing to watch.

Female lead is likeable and elegant. She's not afraid to show her overflowing love. Male lead is a doctor. A woman who needs to heal met a man who is a healing expert. Isn't it perfect? The couple is mature too! However, I don't really like the non-consesual acts disguished as romance here...

Dropped.

[SPOILERS AHEAD]
The romance between the leads is so unnecessary. Annoyed with overused plots like the white truck and amnesia. The main plot bores me now.

It was okay. A lot of gore, some skits, stupid characters, powerful women, weird plot, cliffhanger ending and no explanation and purpose.

Boring. It's a bit like Hellbound in a way, discarding the fantasy element part. 

[future rewatch]
My favourite drama of all time.

It teaches me valuable lessons in every area of life. This is the first time I've cried just by looking at the pictures, as they bring back memories of the scenes. 

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! NEED S2 ASAP!

I honestly didn’t have high expectations going into this drama, especially since the crime and comedy combo felt like such an odd mix to center the story around. But wowww, everything was so well-executed.
- The humor blended in naturally without ever feeling forced or taking away from the seriousness of the plot.
- There was even a twist I didn’t see coming.
- There were some tear-jerking moments and life lessons. 

Craziest main characters ever.
Park Eun Bin slayed once again. She never disappoints.

[SPOILERS AHEAD]
The plot turned out very different from what I had expected. Is it good? Not really. Is it bad then? Not really either ? Just me being confused over two psychos. Ending is left in open interpretations...a bit disappointed as they didn't show the surgery and what happened to Choi Dok Hee.

I love Sang Yan so much. I am so glad I am Sang Yan's Day 1 fangirl since HL (he's my favourite character in HL). I really thought no one could beat Eun Ho from "Love Scout" when it comes to greenest flag, but they are on the same level! Only that Eun Ho is a certified chef and very organised, while Sang Yan is more cheeky, rich and more of an actual life-saver hahaha

I also learnt so much about relationships in this drama. How that you shouldn't abandon someone, thinking that they will be better off without you and so on.

Sang Yan's admirable traits I want to remember and learn from: https://kisskh.at/722171-first-frost#comment-21630450

P.S. I first thought I would dislike this drama because Sang Yan is not acted by Victor Ma but BJT is so good!!! 

Not bad. Unrealistic and not too thrilling.

So unhinged, funny, disgusting and scary at the same time HAHAHA

PROBABLY THE BEST HIJACKING FILM OUT THERE!!

I had extremely high expectations for this movie because I’ve watched a lot of hijacking films before— and this one exceeded those expectations by so much!!! I guessed who the bomber was, but I never saw everything that happened afterwards coming. This movie is incredible. Probably the best one I’ve seen this year and in all time. I honestly wish I had watched it in a cinema or with a projector because every moment is so intense. 

So much better than S1 imo!!

The friendship's chemistry, as well as the fight scenes, was so much better. The villains, too. They are hot (lol) and interesting.
