Seriously can't believe Stranger got nothing :O.
Goblin really chewed the competition.

Probably dried squid >.<. But mandu and bibimbap are also some of my favorites from what I tried.

I always like when authors use real life books, it helps me find something new to read. The story about the room nineteen was nicely delivered and incorporated in the story line. In the drama the emphasis was on the need for emotional and mental space they need to give each other but to me the reasoning behind the lie that the women in the story gave her husband really stood out. Sometimes it is better to give common reasons for your actions and maybe be seen as crazy cause people often have a hard time understanding peculiar reasons. I could truly sympathize with that.

Gotta say 2017 wasn't the best year of kdramas for me but this drama came in the last minute and saved the year. The cast did an amazing job and so did the writer. I thoroughly enjoyed their interactions and some small life lessons given to the viewers.

Oh, I must have missed that one, thank you for mentioning it :)

You covered all of my favorite ones :D. I also gotta say that I totally agree that While You Were Sleeping has the best ost of this year. I constantly find myself listening to the ost. Thank you for sharing this. It is a cool article concept :).

He first caught my eye in plus nine boy. I also watched him in "sweet strange and me" and until lookout he was such a sweetie but he pulled the character in lookout so good that I was shocked. I thought that I won't be able to watch him in lookout but that casting was golden.

It was a good watch. I'm a cheese ball so I really like the message of the movie and the title is quite fitting. I recommend it if you need that touchy-sad feeling :). (Also thought it is about cats :D )

Definitely mochi. :D

This article came at such a right time in my life. I just finished watching The Voice and oh boy are first, sixth and tenth totally describing my mood right now.

I think it is Seo Young.

Bubblegum has kind of an indie feel. The story line is so so but interactions of the main leads and how they care for each other is the strongest point of this drama. It's slow paced but a really lovely drama. I think it is worth a watch if you want something that is more realistic, focused on characters and a special kind of romance between them. If the realistic part scares you don't worry there is plenty of humor and a lot of lovely uplifting moments.
I definitely recommend it :)

So happy somebody wrote an article about him ^^
Really love him, his acting is getting better and better.
I think bubblegum should be mentioned he was really good there.
