Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Beautiful story, well paced, exceptional acting and has some important life lessons mixed into the episodes.
-
2. Fight for My Way
Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes
Heart-felt comedy that makes you laugh, cry, and love with the characters. There is never a dull moment throughout the entire show. I really recommend this to anyone that hasn't seen it. You won't regret watching!
-
3. Weak Hero Class 1
Korean Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
Oooft this was fantastic. It gave me that similar feeling that anime gives which is so hard to execute in live action shows. Some badass characters and a f***ed up story. I could not stop watching
-
4. Prison Playbook
Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes
This hits all of the markers for a good show. Great plot, great pacing, great acting and genuinely made me cry from laughing a few times.
-
5. Youth of May
Korean Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
Heart-wrenching story of forbidden love during the Gwangju uprising in the 1980s. Amazing acting from both leads and I would give anything to watch this for the first time again.
-
6. Guardian: The Lonely and Great God
Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes
Beautiful story. Exceptional acting. Amazing OST.
-
7. Death's Game
Korean Drama - 2023, 4 episodes
Fantastic story with an amazing message. This had me gripped from start to finish. A bit gruesome at parts but also emotionally evocative.
-
8. Death's Game Part 2
Korean Drama - 2024, 4 episodes
Look to notes on part 1
-
9. Twinkling Watermelon
Korean Drama - 2023, 16 episodes
This was so fun! I am loving the time-travel concept that a lot of shows in 2023 are going for. This show was also heartbreaking at times and I cried like baby near the end. But mostly it was some good laughs and a lot of giggles
-
10. Extraordinary Attorney Woo
Korean Drama - 2022, 16 episodes
Still on-going as I add this but I have already fallen in love with the story and characters. Such an amazing plot and does not have a single boring moment yet (Episode 8)
-
11. Nevertheless,
Korean Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
Personally, I loved the cinematography and the style of this show. It's a toxic relationship but it represents the passion in both love and art in the most addictive way. I couldn't look away
-
12. Navillera
Korean Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
I put this one off at first because the synopsis didn't excite me but once I watched it, I did not regret it at all. It was an amazing story and definitely made me question my life and whether I will look back at an old age and regret any of my decisions.
-
13. Twenty Five Twenty One
Korean Drama - 2022, 16 episodes
Beautiful drama, amazing acting and a love story you can't help but cherish in your heart.

14. Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo
Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes
This show definitely is one of my comfort shows. I wish I could watch this again for the first time
-
15. Summer Strike
Korean Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
I don't know exactly what makes this show so great but I couldn't stop watching it. Their journey was just such a beautiful story
-
16. Flower of Evil
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Really captivating the entire time. The pacing and the script was done in a way where you question everything as you watch. What is the truth?
-
17. His
Japanese Movie - 2020
The acting in this carried the story a lot of the time. I appreciate the representation of LGBTQ+ struggles and how many people continue to suffer in countries where it is not as widely accepted.
-
18. Light on Me
Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
This BL has been one of the only BLs that put in the same amount of effort in the story, production, OST, and acting as a straight drama. It has a beautiful storyline and pulls at your heartstring the whole way through.
-
19. My Beautiful Man
Japanese Drama - 2021, 6 episodes
I have watched this probably 2-3 times now. I LOVE the chemistry and the story even though it's a bit toxic. The aesthetics are also amazing. Would recommend the entire series including the movie
-
20. Tune in for Love
Korean Movie - 2019
I appreciate that this does not follow the usual tropes of Korean love stories and I love the indie feel of the cinematography.
-
21. Your Name Engraved Herein
Taiwanese Movie - 2020
Another great LGBT+ movie about love in a dangerous time. I think this movie went about it really well but fair warning; be prepared to shed some tears.
-
22. Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth
Korean Drama - 2016, 20 episodes
This was another really fun watch. One of my comfort shows for sure and V is amazing in this!
-
23. My Name
Korean Drama - 2021, 8 episodes
If you love mystery/thriller you're going to love this. A BADASS female lead and an overall great story
-
24. Perfect Marriage Revenge
Korean Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
I have to add this one in even though the budget didn't seem very high, this show was one of the most satisfying revenge plots I've ever watched.
