  • A Bloody Lucky Day

    1. A Bloody Lucky Day

    Korean Drama - 2023, 10 episodes

    6.0

    this show was absolutely carried by yeonseok's character since it was interestingly layered. the taxi driver? an annoying person with 0 survival skills. he just kept dragging other ppl down with him instead of trying to find a way out by himself. he could've died in the end too for all i cared

  • A Dream within a Dream

    2. A Dream within a Dream

    Chinese Drama - 2025, 40 episodes

    8.0

    i never thought i'd like an historical drama this much. loved the characters, the comedy and how they didn't unnecessarily drag the story. the ost was on point too!

  • Always Home

    3. Always Home

    Chinese Drama - 2025, 30 episodes

    10

    i cried, i laughed, even felt nostalgic over things i never experienced. all the coming of age dramas should take notes from always home, everything was perfect. i love how they were able to cover their highschool and adult lives without making it boring or rushed. the ost was perfect too. it's the warm hug everyone needs after a rly long day

  • As You Stood By

    4. As You Stood By

    Korean Drama - 2025, 8 episodes

    7.0

    call me crazy but youmi's character didn't deserve to go to prison like am i supporting a criminal? yes, but that mf rly deserved to die. loved youmi's acting and hojung's too bc she was soooooo annoying

  • Back from the Brink

    5. Back from the Brink

    Chinese Drama - 2023, 40 episodes

    7.0

    probably the first and last wuxia that i'll ever watch, not bc it's bad but bc the genre isn't rly for me. it had some pacing issues, but bc i liked both the characters, actors and the plot itself, i ended up finishing it quite fast. the cgi/vfx was awful tho, i can't understand how a country like china does smth like that

  • Be Yourself

    6. Be Yourself

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 24 episodes

    7.0

    very cute and realistic. sometimes a bit draggy, but i like how everytime an issue would arise, they'd solve it within the same episode instead of making it a big deal. it also teaches you important life lessons, so i rly enjoyed it

  • Black Out

    7. Black Out

    Korean Drama - 2024, 14 episodes

    7.0

    i knew [redacted] was suspicious from the get go. everyone from that village should've just died in the end, they were so disgusting and evil. bora's character felt a bit out of place tho, i still don't know what was her character's purpose

  • Brave Citizen

    8. Brave Citizen

    Korean Movie - 2023

    4.0

    not a huge fan of mixing such a heavy and important topic like school violence with comedy...

  • Celebrity

    9. Celebrity

    Korean Drama - 2023, 12 episodes

    5.0

    a wasted potential... the idea was there and the right actors too, but it lacked development

  • Cheese in the Trap

    10. Cheese in the Trap

    Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes

    4.0

    the only good thing about this show was the siblings' chemistry

  • Coin Locker Girl

    11. Coin Locker Girl

    Korean Movie - 2015

    3.0

    this movie went nowhere like maybe i'm too stupid for it but i don't see the vision yall seem to get

  • Copycat Killer

    12. Copycat Killer

    Taiwanese Drama - 2023, 10 episodes

    7.0

    i rly liked it, specially fandy's character bc of how complex it is. what he went through is sick and it makes you feel bad for him, but at the same time what he did is inexcusable. i know some ppl don't like how they used women in this, but i feel like it was necessary for the plot, unlike other shows which only use such things for shock value. the only down side of the show was the last 2 eps, when they started to explore the ml's past, bc i didn't rly care about him

  • Cry Me a Sad River

    13. Cry Me a Sad River

    Chinese Movie - 2018

    5.0

    it didn't have the impact it was supposed to deliver. i feel like if they had actually shown the bullying scenes we'd be able to feel the fl's pain and connect with her better. but bc they barely focused on it, the ending felt rly bland

  • Dali & Cocky Prince

    14. Dali & Cocky Prince

    Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes

    5.0

    now that i look back at it i don't know how i didn't drop this drama bc it was unnecessarily long and the story itself wasn't that engaging

  • Dance of the Sky Empire

    15. Dance of the Sky Empire

    Chinese Drama - 2020, 28 episodes

    4.0

    the first half of the show was fine, but it became boring rly fast. also didn't particularly enjoy any of the side characters so i rly had to force myself to complete it

  • Definitely Not Today

    16. Definitely Not Today

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 8 episodes

    7.0

    a hidden gem! i feel bad for saying it but i laughed so hard everytime the ml tried to end it and the fl would unintentionally stop him. however, i feel like some parts could've been more developed, hence the average score. but for a short indie show, it was rly good

  • Drive

    17. Drive

    Korean Movie - 2023

    5.0

    the ending pissed me off.... but the plot's idea was interesting

  • Eclipse

    18. Eclipse

    Korean Movie - 2016

    3.0

    another one that went nowhere. that scene close to the end was completely unnecessary for the story

  • Family Matters

    19. Family Matters

    Korean Drama - 2024, 6 episodes

    4.0

    i can't rly pinpoint what i didn't like about this show bc the genres are all up my alley, but nothing attracted me, i was rly disappointed

  • Flight to You

    20. Flight to You

    Chinese Drama - 2022, 39 episodes

    6.0

    looooove the woman representation on a male dominant job. they did a rly good job at exploring it and the flight attendants' life too. rly enjoyed the chemistry between the leads, however it did feel a bit long like they rly stretched the plot to get close to the standard 40 eps

  • Following

    21. Following

    Korean Movie - 2024

    4.0

    the plot twist wasn't anyting special and neither was the overall story. the way the ml describes himself and explains what he does as if it's smth casual that everyone else does was very goofy, probably my fav part of the movie

  • Gangnam B-Side

    22. Gangnam B-Side

    Korean Drama - 2024, 8 episodes

    6.0

    i liked the plot and how it resembled the burning sun case. but bc of that, seeing changwook fight multiple ppl alone countless times and surviving all of them became rly annoying at some point, which brought down the message the drama was trying to convey

  • Ghost Killer

    23. Ghost Killer

    Japanese Movie - 2025

    5.0

    i see the vision and i liked the comedy but i feel like the screenwriters could've done smth better

  • Glass Heart

    24. Glass Heart

    Japanese Drama - 2025, 10 episodes

    6.0

    ik the show was centered around music, but it was a bit too much for me. i also didn't like the romance part, it kinda popped out of nowhere. it would've been sm better if they had sticked to the "ppl from different backgrounds come together to pursue their dream and connect ppl" thing

  • Hopeless

    25. Hopeless

    Korean Movie - 2023

    4.0

    that's how i felt throughout my watch, and it's not a compliment

  • Hospital Playlist

    26. Hospital Playlist

    Korean Drama - 2020, 12 episodes

    9.0

    this rly touched my heart. all the cases were interesting and i love how the characters match eo's freaks. it made me want a close group of friends in my field too

  • Impossibility Defense

    27. Impossibility Defense

    Japanese Movie - 2018

    4.0

    the concept was there, but the execution... i feel like we started and finished exactly on the same spot, 1h46min of runtime and the story went nowhere

  • Karma

    28. Karma

    Korean Drama - 2025, 6 episodes

    4.0

    besides being boring, i didn't like a single character

  • Kill Bok Soon

    29. Kill Bok Soon

    Korean Movie - 2023

    5.0

    only watched it bc i wanted to watch mantis, slightly better than the later but that's not a big compliment... also the incest plot was so unnecessary like what does it bring to the table be honest

  • Light Shop

    30. Light Shop

    Korean Drama - 2024, 8 episodes

    9.0

    ngl there were many times i was extremely confused about what was going on and i'm still not sure i completely got the ending, but i love how sad and mysterious this show was. i cried multiple times, bonus points for that

  • Lighter & Princess

    31. Lighter & Princess

    Chinese Drama - 2022, 36 episodes

    6.0

    i love the enemies to lovers trope but for some reason this wasn't completely my cuf of tea, it felt rly dragged at times so it took me a rly long time to complete it. being centered around tech didn't help either, but that's a me problem

  • Little Women

    32. Little Women

    Korean Drama - 2022, 12 episodes

    4.0

    and if i say among the sisters i only liked goeun's character... the other 2 were rly getting on my nerves the whole time

  • Love Scout

    33. Love Scout

    Korean Drama - 2025, 12 episodes

    4.0

    i'm part of the 2% who didn't enjoy this drama that much. the concept was good and i liked the first few eps, but as the story went through it became kinda boring and repetitive (i think i might just have the "once they finally get togther i lose interest" disease)

  • Love Untangled

    34. Love Untangled

    Korean Movie - 2025

    6.0

    i was rly excited for this one bc of woomin and eunsoo, so it pains me to say that it was rly bland... it was cute but unfortunately that's it

  • Mantis

    35. Mantis

    Korean Movie - 2025

    4.0

    the acting was there but the plot... i need siwan and gyuyoung to reunite in a better project

  • Melo Movie

    36. Melo Movie

    Korean Drama - 2025, 10 episodes

    6.0

    it was... okay. it's true that it made me cry a few times, but the story itself wasn't that special. i got way more invested on the 2nd couple. loved seing woomin playing a sweet and caring character

  • Monster

    37. Monster

    Korean Movie - 2014

    7.0

    i wish thay had given us more... the potential and idea were there but i feel like the excution could've been better

  • Mr. Plankton

    38. Mr. Plankton

    Korean Drama - 2024, 10 episodes

    6.0

    i have mixed fellings... loved the acting, cried a lot with the ending but idk what to think about the ml... like he kidnapped the fl multiple times, i'm pretty sure she developed stockholm syndrome at some point... idk

  • Nine Puzzles

    39. Nine Puzzles

    Korean Drama - 2025, 11 episodes

    7.0

    i rly wanted to love this but there's smth missing. also didn't rly enjoy dami's acting in this one (it was probably just the character itself but still)

  • Nobody Knows

    40. Nobody Knows

    Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes

    6.0

    i have mixed feelings about this. i love thrillers and mysteries and i usually don't mind if they're slow paced, but that's when there's smth big coming up and it's hard to get the full picture. in this case, after watching half of the eps you get what the ending will be like and the spark of the show kinda fades away. nonetheless, great acting from all the cast!

  • Our Secret Diary

    41. Our Secret Diary

    Japanese Movie - 2023

    6.0

    it's cute what can i say, we all need smth like this every now and then

  • Please Be My Family

    42. Please Be My Family

    Chinese Drama - 2023, 30 episodes

    3.0

    i might be a bit harsh with the score for this one, but the story itself is nothing special like i've seen this plot before and better executed. didn't feel the chemistry between the leads either... it's good to kill time tho

  • Reborn

    43. Reborn

    Chinese Drama - 2025, 23 episodes

    9.0

    an acting masterclass from the entire cast. great plot, execution, cinematography and character depth

  • Regeneration

    44. Regeneration

    Chinese Drama - 2024, 10 episodes

    6.0

    enjoyed the plot and acting but ngl, when they started to explore de ml's past i couldn't care less like i was sm more into the other characters, they were sm more interesting than him. i'm still kinda confused with the ending

  • Reset

    45. Reset

    Chinese Drama - 2022, 15 episodes

    7.0

    ik the whole point of reset was... reseting but it became a bit repetitive after a while. the love line was unnecessary for the drama, it didn't add anything new

  • S Line

    46. S Line

    Korean Drama - 2025, 6 episodes

    6.0

    it had a promising start, the plot was very interesting and different from what we're used to, but after ep5 everything started to make no sense and went downhill... rly disappointing

  • School 2021

    47. School 2021

    Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes

    4.0

    it was unnecessarily long. ik the whole point of the school series is to give the spotlight to new actors but there wasn't enough plot for 16 eps, this would've worked sm better as a short drama

  • Squid Game Season 2

    48. Squid Game Season 2

    Korean Drama - 2024, 7 episodes

    5.0

    it should've ended after s1. even tho there were new games, they weren't as interesting as the ones played before and the new characters weren't anything special either...  thanks for the yuri-siwan content

  • Study Group

    49. Study Group

    Korean Drama - 2025, 10 episodes

    7.0

    this was such a fun watch. the action scenes were rly well executed and the chemistry between all the actors rly makes you feel like they're friends irl

  • The Defects

    50. The Defects

    Korean Drama - 2025, 8 episodes

    8.0

    i rly liked it and i liked how disturbing it was but the last ep felt rly rushed and i felt like we didn't have a proper closure... just one more ep would've been enough to see what happened to all the clients and what the kids were up to in more detail now that they're finally free

  • The First Frost

    51. The First Frost

    Chinese Drama - 2025, 32 episodes

    7.0

    very cute and lovely, a bit draggy at times, but very cute and lovely

  • The Forbidden Flower

    52. The Forbidden Flower

    Chinese Drama - 2023, 24 episodes

    5.0

    there's smth off about this. i like the cinematography and how they handled the age gap, but the fl acted too childish for her age at times. ik her mother used to control her a lot and for that she wasn't able to have a normal life but still... also the ending was a bit annoying ngl

  • The Quirky and the Charming

    53. The Quirky and the Charming

    Chinese Drama - 2025, 20 episodes

    4.0

    i only watched it bc i had time to kill and i couldn't find a better drama... it's the usual trope, nothing new and the chemistry between the leads wasn't anything out of this world

  • The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call

    54. The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call

    Korean Drama - 2025, 8 episodes

    9.0

    is it totally medically accurate? no. but it's a very fun and entertaining watch. i need s2 asap

  • Twelve Letters

    55. Twelve Letters

    Chinese Drama - 2025, 12 episodes

    10

    i think i cried in every single episode. what a journey and rollercoaster of emotions. wish i could erase this show from my mind just so i could experience it again for the first time. what a once in a lifetime experience

  • Undercover High School

    56. Undercover High School

    Korean Drama - 2025, 12 episodes

    8.0

    this show was so funny, i was so excited every week just to get new eps. it would've been even better if there wasn't a childhood sweethearts plot and they had just met at school, but aside from that i rly enjoed it

  • Unforgettable Love

    57. Unforgettable Love

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 24 episodes

    5.0

    what please be my family tried to be. way better executed and the chemistry was on point. the child actor was also very good and cute, but the constant product placement, uninteresting second couple and unnecessary drama bring the score severely down
