May 22 -- December (dropped 2/9)

-- It didn't seem that likable at first but turned out to be good very soon after.
-- I didn't know Kim Nam Gil was such a hottie. To my eye, no one's pale skin looked that attractive like him. Haha!

--  Update on Jan 1st, 23: I put this on hold for a long time and don't even know when I'll watch this again. It's a fun watch but kind of boring at the same time... lol    
-- Update on March, 23: I don't think I'll continue watching this. I am dropping it today but also saving it for my future Russia visit plans. I'll watch it if that day comes one day, hopefully. ♥️

-- November: YAAAYYY!! I am taking this back because I am going to Russia next month!! So excited.

-- January 24: I can't tell how sad I feel now. When I was in Russia, LSK passed away. How am I supposed to keep watching this show after that? My heart aching like crazy. His voice is in my ears like he is alive. I hear his heavenly deep, lovely voice whenever I think about him. This is too much to handle for me...

June 22 -- December 

-- A top-notch drama that I don't wanna watch because I know it will come to an end if I do. lol

-- Maybe because of my high expectations from this drama, I started to feel disappointed about it. It is still so good but not like what I expected.

-- It's good. But somehow the story got stuck at one point. I still loved it though. It's one of the best productions in K-drama history for sure. 

-- I don't know why finishing this drama took a year and a half. It was lovely, not the best but great in many ways. I enjoyed it very much in total. 

September 22 -- January

-- Hilarious for sure! But, I am not satisfied because of my high expectations from this one.  We will see soon how it's gonna turn out.

-- It took me a while to like it but in the end, I'm glad I didn't give up on it. I believe this one is the best Korean sitcom ever.

December 22 -- January (dropped, 12/32)

-- I am back to watching this. Dropped 10/25/21, giving it one more chance.

-- It failed again. This is cliche and predictable. I am okay with not realistic drama concepts, I even loved "my love from another star" but this one is not on that level. Also, I've already watched 6 of 16 episodes, but still got no proper explanation of the events or the characters. Don't understand why this drama is popular when there are many better ones.

December 22 -- January

-- I don't think I've watched a drama like this one before categorized as "adult-theme" with an informative plot. I wish there were not that much nudity that I don't think it was necessarily needed.

January -- October

-- Being exposed many times to Jessi's videos on Instagram made me here. She is damn funny. And real. She is not acting to be cute or attractive. All natural. Loving her!

-- I loved every second of this show! ❤ 

January

-- I didn't watch the whole show but I watched almost all performances so I'll count it as completed. It's better to watch it without the ranking stuff tbh.

-- Stray kids deserved to win this imo. I loved all of their performances. But SF9's MOVE performance was definitely legendary. I liked BTOB's performances too, mainly when they covered one of my favorite Stray Kids songs. Atezz was good in all performances, they all are great dancers and performers for sure. I also didn't know The Boyz was this big and this good, thanks to this show I met them. 

January

-- This one was almost the same as 'One More Time'.  I cried my eyes out.

January

-- There was some missing points in the story but still was a good mini-drama. Liked it.

January

-- A simple mood-booster. Makes you feel like you are not the only one struggling with life every day. 

February -- April (dropped, 7/16)

-- I thought this one would be a high-class rom-com but apparently, I was wrong. This one has all the romantic K-drama tropes that people want to see. Not the best but also watchable because I love both leads, Park Min Young and Park Seo Joon.

-- I was struggling with the most cliche storyline I've ever seen. I know most romcoms have a predictable plot but this one was just too much. Nothing caught my curiosity even though I almost watched half of it. Not a single character was lovable to me, especially side characters... They were all so annoying. So I sadly had to give up on watching the rest. T-T

February -- April

-- Since I am familiar with the genre, I could say this drama was enough funny, good, also tense to watch. Worth watching.

-- The plot twist was okay but the ending was kinda weak and I didn't like it much. Still was a good short drama to watch though. 

February

-- This one hurts like hell without even trying. My heart and my eyes are sore. Too heavy for my tired soul.

February

-- A heart-whelming short drama. I really like these food/cooking-themed Japanese dramas. It made me feel better during one of the worst moments in my life ♡

February

-- By looking at its rating, I was expecting to have a better one. Not bad but not great either. I like it.

February

-- Nothing interesting, a low-budget web drama-like short drama.

March

-- An exceptional Thai drama and will be one of the best in all, similar to Not Me. They did such a good job even though it's hard to touch that many sensitive topics together in one drama. Loved every character and the complex relationship between all. I know there also were silly parts in the story, but it was acceptable since that silliness completed the story softly and well.

March  (dropped, 2/8)

-- I can't believe how low-quality this drama is! Plus, it doesn't work for me to watch Kim Young Dae, he is cold like a fridge, and I don't like him. I couldn't watch more than two episodes even though Son Woo Hyun was in it.

April -- May

-- I again fell so in love with them when I was watching their performances and loved them more while watching this show. aah, ma precious little boys! Thanks for existing in my life. 사랑해!

-- NOCUT (eps 1-2): 8/10, NOSOLO (eps 3-5): 9.5/10, NONSTOP (ep 6): 8/10, NOEASY (ep 7): 9/10.

April

-- This was definitely one of the best web dramas, maybe the best ever. I loved every second of it. The open ending also made it better. Characters, acting, writing, ..., everything was on top.

April

-- With that many pilot holes, I was actually being generous by giving 6.5 ratings. Everyone was good-looking and also good at acting, I used that as the excuse for it. Watchable, that's all.

-- Edit: Dear Moonbin, I didn't know at that time that watching this drama would have been the last time I enjoyed seeing you without my heart aching like crazy. And it was only two weeks ago... I was still waiting to see you in a new drama because I was so impressed by your aura in Moment at Eighteen. I was expecting to see you in a leading role in a new full-time drama... I was so unprepared to see your news on MDL's main page like this. When I see your photo at that moment, I thought the news came out to inform us that you will be a part of a new drama. Only a moment later seeing that it was about your leaving this world broke my heart infinitely. Days have passed since you left us and walked through to Heaven but I still can't recover. I don't think I will ever be recovered from this pain. I loved you a lot, dear Moonbin. You were still a baby but decided to leave this world. I can't even imagine how much pain you having through. Sleep well there, little angel. 잘 자, my moon... You will never be forgotten. ♡

April

-- Chopped story, bad storytelling, plot holes, missing deepness, ...., should I say more? NO. I was bored but kept myself till the last still didn't work for me though. 

April

-- Maybe because it was the beginning of the series, the plot was kind of confusing but still good. 

April

-- The chemistry is insane between all actors. And the acting also the plot got better this season. Loved the vlog theme.

April

-- Even with the love triangle and some childish drama that I usually don't like to have, they managed it very well.  

April

-- Not bad but not good either. They made the message clear for sure but it was not deepened enough. There were critical missing parts in my opinion. 

April

-- A bit better than the first season but not good enough to rate it higher. 

April

-- As I said before, the chemistry between the actors is just unbelievably good. Better than many other dramas, even full-timed ones. All actors did an excellent job for sure. They have a bright future, we can see how some already got big roles in full-time dramas. Nice to see there are many rookie actors that are better than many senior ones already...

April

-- Nothing new, nothing interesting, and a full cliche storyline with boring characters. I only liked the hagseng girl, to be honest. Since I watched it 2x speed and saw how boring this one was, I have no plan to watch 'flower ever after' which is a prequel.

April (dropped, 3/14)

-- It might be not that bad I was so not happy with the quality and cheap comedic style of the drama. 

April (dropped, 4/8)

-- It started well but then went down. The quality, the acting, all was bad. 

April

-- Nothing special. It was only for time killing to recover myself. Seeing Woo Hyun in a different role made me feel a bit weird tho. 'cuz I love him as Kang Seo Joon a lot. lol.

April

-- Ji Sung is such a talented actor. I love him a lot. I especially loved his visuals in this one. The story was kinda messed up but still okay for a short festival film. 

April

-- One of the best ever for sure. A little bit too artistic for me but still love it a lot. Made me cry, made me swoon, made me feel alone, made me happy, made me hopeless, and also made me hopeful. Thanks for this masterpiece...  a must-watch drama for everyone.

May -- June

-- I think my favorite actress of all time is Gong Hyo Jin and she will always be one. I love everything she is in. Also Jo Jong Suk. He is unique and lovely. Having Go Kyung Po in this after Chicago Typewriter is nice too. Loving this drama a lot!!

-- The first half was great but I am not sure if the second was the same. I am pretty okay with the competition between two men and also all the silly things they did, except how things happened with other girls and eomeonnims. 

May

-- This is a risky and confusing watch but I still want to watch it to the end. Japanese dramas are scaring me for real. lol.

-- This was such a mess!! Their relationship was unhealthy but I know it didn't mean it was not 'normal'. Still, they tried to portray the not easy and unhealthy relationship as a normal one and this was the problematic point in my opinion. An unhealthy relationship does not mean abnormal but also normal. So it's still unhealthy at the end of the day and that's the point. Japanese filmmakers are so brave but sometimes they get confused by their unlimitedness. lol.

May

-- I loved Hobi more with this movie. He is a special person for sure.

May

-- The acting was insanely good for sure but the script was too confusing. I watched the movie without getting bored even a second but at the end, I had no clue about who survived or which story was real, etc. The production team said the movie was not a continuation of the drama but it didn't seem like it. It may have been better to finish the drama first to understand the movie fully as people said.

May

—This was “classic again” in the meaning of how cliche the story was. Lol. I don't like when they put too many destiny elements in the plot. It's too unrealistic and childish. Like….He loved a girl..but their love was impossible and they couldn't be together in the end..guess what happened later...his son and her daughter fell in love with the help of fate..and got a happy ending unlike them...whoa such a destiny, right?!..haha~

—  I gave it a 6,5 only because of the good acting and the cinematography.

May

-- Sorry but this one was too weak compared to the first season. Still had fun though. 

May

-- Eric, ma boy! Love you and all your children in this show. lol. You are all the best!

May

-- I can't believe I forgot about my first crushes aka BTS and how funny they are even without trying. Their fame is not earned by luck for sure. Their chemistry and friendship are on a different level. Also, each member's different but very nice characters make them more unique. Each one is confident but also shy and has boundaries. I know there are many bands like them right now but their existence created a huge opportunity to have new ones like them for sure. Anyways, this one was a nice reminder for me that I was missing them without knowing.

May

-- It disappointed me a little because after seeing the first episode I was waiting to see a drama similar to 'Would you like a cup of coffee'. It still was not bad but an average webdrama. 

May

-- Watched this with my sister and brother-in-law. It was a fun watch but not the best, for sure. If I started watching this myself, I don't think I could have finished it. lol. A fantastic martial art-filled visual feast.

May

-- I laughed my lungs out. lol. I definitely think Stray Kids is one of the funniest groups in the Kpop World. Looove them a lot!

May

-- This was original, dude! I loved how Jungkook slept like a baby whenever he rode in the car. lol. The first episode was weak but the second was great.

May

-- It got better by the second half. I loved the production and their creative games and ideas. This show was different than other Ateez shows.

May

-- The last episode was so good, the rest was all chopped and disappointed. Still loved my little ones a lot. ^^

June -- November 

-- June: Love them and their passion for their work. They all have such starlight...

-- July: They always inspire me with the discipline they have. They excite me and make me feel like my heart beating again. I love how genuine they are always. I love how they haven't changed a lot despite the fact they are all grown up and earned huge fame today. They inspire me to do what I want to do. Even though they are much younger than me, I learn from them a lot. Thanks, Bangtan boys, for coming into my life. I will always be grateful to you. Love you lots. 

-- Thank you, thank you for giving me strength my loves. I wouldn't be sitting on my chair without your push, 오늘도.

June

-- I am on the 4th episode now but to be honest, am having a hard time continue watching this. I have no interest in what is gonna happen in the next episodes. I won't say it's that bad but something is definitely missing. 

-- It got better and better. I enjoyed it. 

June

-- This was a complicated story that included cheating also jealousy and that's why I did not enjoy it much but also did not rate it lower than it deserves.  

July -- September

-- It started weak but got better at the end of the first episode already. Will see how is gonna turn out to.

-- This drama basically was trying to say "Love is healing." I loved Park Bo Gum's baby face and the chemistry between all the actors. Worth watching.

July

-- I believe this is the only cheating-themed movie/drama I rated higher than usual. I know cheating is cheating, and there is no exception. I also am sensitive about that. But this movie showed audiences why forbidden relationships are forbidden by portraying the unhealthy and consuming side of it. The acting and music, along with the melodrama were on point. The side characters were good, but not the best. I wish there were a little less NSFW scenes, some were not necessary in my opinion. I still liked it a lot. It was good as a mature movie. 

July

-- It was fun. Not bad but not that good either. 

July

-- I wish there was a proper ending. Otherwise, I liked this short webdrama a lot. 

August

-- I wasn't expecting much and it was exactly like my expectation. lol. But I love PSJ and IU. They were both lovely, main side characters too.

August

-- The first episode was kind of off. The third one was the best. I laughed a lot as usual with these chaotic kids! ^^

August

-- You have all grown up my baby boyz. This one was pure your inner-self. love u.

August

-- Watchable only because of our kids. The karaoke part was the best. 

August

-- I laughed my lungs out. lol.

August

-- I love them. And also appreciate Hybe, aka Big Hit, for making top-quality shows always.

August

-- I loooove them!! I had so much fun! I wish Eric were more active in this season too though. He kept himself on the back.

August

-- The story deserved a 9 but the production was pretty weak sadly. I loved all actors. Very well deserved the fame it received. An entertaining movie filled with life lessons. 

August

-- It did not make me bored but I was not totally entertained either. 

August

-- I definitely love this type of Korean drama. They describe how complicated the relationships are in a very clear and sharp way. This one hurt me but also made me feel better. Loved it!

August

-- After the first season, this one was a bit disappointing but still worth watching.

August (dropped, 1/12)

-- I didn't get why the director played with the lights and the camera angles that much. It made me feel dizzy. Also, what was Tarantino movies-like blood lake scenes? I had no choice but not to watch the rest. lol.

August (dropped)

-- I watched this movie's first half with my sister and something came up and we couldn't watch the rest. But I have no intention of watching the rest because the comedy also the plot were not my cup of tea. 

September

-- I love Ateez, but the realization hit me how important the production team is in my every watch of their shows. I feel sad about these precious boys. I wish they had in a better company.

September

-- I know the drama brought all-positive vibes, but it didn't make me impressed. It is worth watching, though.

September

-- Cuuuteee!! Loved both the male leads and the female lead, all were very good-looking.

September (dropped, 1/8)

-- Sorry, cuties. This was boring and too childish for me. 

September

-- Besides how cliche the drama was, I kept watching it because of Cha In-ha. My heart aches for him... He was so young... And beautiful... to leave this world early... it feels unfair. 

September

-- I don't know how to feel about this mini-drama. I don't believe friendship between a girl and a boy is not possible, but I also know the meaning of relationships are all differently taken by young people. So, I really do not want to criticize this drama to any extent. lol

September

-- I sadly still think the same. Something is missing in their shows and it makes me hella mad because I love them...

September (dropped)

-- I don't like this kind of comedy movie at all. Koreans stop doing cheap comedy movies/dramas with great actors. Such a waste :(

September

-- A heartbreaking also cute short-movie. Liked it.

September

-- Brilliant!! A great short movie. I loved the storytelling the most. 

September

-- So, my baby Jinyoung is a 나쁜 남자 in this one, huh? lol. Kyowoooo ^^

September

-- Loved this!! Namkoong Min surprised me with his directing skills. Loved the plot twist. lol. A must-watch short movie.

September

-- I know I can't stand with Chinese dramas but I still want to finish this one. Let's fighting 하다!!

-- This drama was one of the silliest dramas, but it was visually beautiful, better than any Chinese crime drama I've watched. 

September

-- This was one of the best Ateez shows I have watched. Keep going my boyz, fighting!

October -- November

-- I feel so heavy and also relieved somehow. My heart is aching without pain. I feel like an elephant sits on my chest. But rather than pain, I feel relieved... My emotional status is fucked up by this drama...

-- No drama did what this one did to me for a long time. This one is golden. I am in love. 

October

-- They're a little too young for me or I am a little too old for them. Lol. 

October (dropped, 1/11)

-- I know all the actors are famous and the drama too. However, I couldn't finish the first episode because the artistic style of this drama was not to my taste. There have been many triggering things, but I especially didn't like the storytelling. Sorry, not sorry. 

October

-- This was similar to Naked Director but was better than that because it touched on sensitive topics more and the criticism was stronger. However the confusing storytelling made it a bit weaker. I don't honestly know what I feel about this drama but it was worth watching.

October

-- Such random drama with no story. I rated it only because of the good production. 

October

-- I cannot put myself together after this movie. I cried my eyes out. Nothing was exceptional in this movie, but everything was the same as mine. It felt like I lived again in my teenage years. Remembering my first love, how he left me, and how I couldn't erase him from my memories made me hate myself again. My heart hurts.

November -- December

-- I am so pissed to whom created this. It's so clear that she was in hard pain and suffering depression and also suicidal. Why no one did not stop this? My heart is broken. Rest in peace, dear young soul. I hope you feel better wherever you are now. 

November -- December

-- Baby Bangtan!! Jimin-ah, you made me surprised with the self-confidence you had, even though you were still a teenager. And also, RM, you were such a not serious person back then. hahahha.

November -- December

-- I don't know why I kept watching this despite its silliness. Maybe because of its light storyline, and absurd comedy in it. Nothing was special but it was still surprisingly watchable. 

-- There were good ones and bad ones but in total, I liked this one. 

November

-- this was the first show of them I've watched and liked a lot. 

-- D.O., ma boy, love u the most! And Baekhyun, u scared me a bit to be honest. lol

November

-- I liked it only because of its unique storytelling.

November

-- Again, I feel sorry. I love these boys but sadly the reality shows they attend don't do justice for them. 

November

-- It was nice to see Taemin with Kai. I also liked how he spent time when he was alone in that spooky place. lol.

November

-- They are definitely variety show kings! Love them.

-- P.S.: I unstoppably laugh every time I see Jimin fall off from his chair. Such a silly cutie he is. ㅎㅎ

November

-- As I said before, they are the god of reality shows. Wow. Time literally flies while watching them. Love, love, loveee BTS!!

November

-- This was one of the best. I was gonna explode from laughing too much. 

November

-- This show is the reason why I didn't sleep for nights. lol. The game is fun. 

November

-- Everything was fun as usual. Love these boyz!
