2026 - Finished Dramas/TV Shows

01/01/26 - 17/01/26

Culinary Monster was giving me last seasons' winner vibes with how annoyingly arrogant he was in those interviews like damn brother, chill. He was good, but those bits with him talking just made me wanna punch him. From the way that the most annoying guy won last season I was low key expecting CM to win just because of that.

I was cheering for glasses guy from the previous season and I was cheering for the white spoon chef that went against Culinary Monster in the duo challenge, sad that he lost to CM.
Kinda sucked that most of the black spoon chefs were eliminated at once, didn't really like that only two could make it, it was too early in the show to do that. I'm glad they did the tofu hell round again, but with carrots, that was the best part of the first season (although I think tofu was harder).

Honestly I think it's kinda limiting that they put the monk in this show, because it's not like she was just better with vegetables, she literally could not cook with any kind of meat, that was so limiting imo because they had to give her alternatives in some challenges and always consider her limitations all the time.

Anyways, it was CM against glasses guy for the final round and I really thought that the only person I didn't want to win, CM, was probably gonna win, that one judge was just whipped for the guy. But yaaay the one I wanted to win, won, I'm glad. Last season Edward Lee deserved to win and lost, so I'm glad at least this time the one that deserved to win, won.

It was alright, although I think it was longer than it needed to? Like, it kinda dragged. I also did not really care about FL, it was more entertaining watching the girl out for revenge than FL.

01/04/26 - 03/04/26

I loved the two main dudes' bromance ;w; cool fight scenes. But I need to say, the last two eps were kinda lukewarm compared to the rest. The girl wasn't there anymore from the trio then suddenly there was this random bow girl? Idk man, the fights were still cool, but the two last eps felt a bit all over the place.

It was a fun season again~ It was hard to choose who to cheer for at the finals lool But I'm satisfied with who won!

04/04/26 - 19/04/26

First ep was really good, I loved the younger versions ;w; I liked the first song that FL sang in place of the idol. Plot was very obvious, it was clear that the glasses brother was not the kid from the past and that he was actually the producer brother.

I think she should have spent more time with ML instead of his brother in this story. Like, dude was thinking he was him and crushing on her when obviously it was not him, that was just sad. Why make the brother fall in love with FL? He could have been just a friend.

I wanted more scenes with the leads together, I kept waiting, but at the end we were only left with a few moments... Like fr the romance was the most interesting part for me and instead of getting that we got SO MUCH of the annoying singer, the brother, the shitty CEO and the stalker abusive dad. I didn't really care for most of those scenes, especially the plot with the singer and the CEO and the singer and her mom... who cares. I didn't vibe with most of the characters tbh.

This drama also should have been like way shorter, they really prolonged some scenes when they should not have. The adult ML really reminded me of the younger version, good job with casting there.

At the end I was like... not the fucking "let's feel pity for the abusive dads" pls. ALSO WHY THE FUCK DID SHE SIGN WITH SHITTY CEO OMFG UGH. So yeah, average drama tbh, could have been so much better, kind of a wasted potential.

It was alright, story wasn't as strong as it was in season 1 imo. Also some scenes were kinda dramatic.

Everyone seemed so dumb... like for ex one of the villains was a bomb expert. How can you just go inside their penthouse and not assume they know you are going there and prepared a bomb??? The police force was kind of a joke most of this drama, couldn't protect anyone, it was frustrating.

The fights were very cool, wish they let the duo fight together more times, I didn't like how they kinda put the older main guy on the sidelines and he also got his ass kicked a LOT. I feel like they focused too much on other people (like that loan shark, the hacker and the cop). The duo are the heart of the show, why separate them? I came here for them and their fights, they barely spent time together and the older guy barely fought since he hurt his hand.

Best ep of the season was the final ep, it was hype. Loved the ring fight.

Although I have some questions like, is the cop brother in a coma still? What happened to the family of the villain who died that was staying at main guy's house? Because they assume the villain ran away, so wouldn't they be in danger? Did the police agree to hide them or something? What happened with the hacker? Was he arrested? Did the bike friend who helped them die because of the stab wounds or not??? Hacker girl hacked into the hacker dude's phone... why? Was she just gathering proof for the police? They didn't really show her anymore so lol

But yeah, I'll watch the third season when it comes out. I was not expecting Park Seo Joon to show up in this show so that was a pleasant surprise and I'm glad he'll be in season 3~
