Korean Drama '' Sorry Not Sorry '' is a comedy that centers around the main character's attempts to get back on her feet.The drama has an enjoyable main lead who is relatable on many occasions. The comedy part was also good, though some situations were a bit far-fetched.
The family drama was, in addition, interesting, however, it was brushed over and never explored in depth.
And even though the romance was cute and had potential, it was badly paced and left to be solved in the final episode, where everything happened too fast, and the ending was rushed. The love triangle was a failure as well.
Finally, the performances were all great.
So, overall, six out of ten.

Japanese Drama '' 3 Nen C Gumi wa Furin Shitemasu. '' is a school drama that tries to incorporate an adult melodrama plot into a teenage series.The drama, first of all, had some interesting stories, but they were not the main one. For example, the side story of the teenage student and the teacher, or the one of the parents and their past story.
However, the main one, which occupied most of the screen time, was more than idiotic. The kids were trying to act as adults in adult situations and it was cringey to watch. Moreover, the drama tried to make things suspenseful and mysterious, by adding scenes of a police investigation, something that didn't pay off in the end.
Finally, the performance were good at least by everyone in the cast.
So, overall, three out of ten.

Korean Drama '' Love, Andante '' is a short romantic drama.The story has a good idea at its core, with the unification village being a smart way to start the story, but wasn't really utilized to its best potential. Rather than showing the stories of the new residents and their dynamics, they focused exclusively on the romance, which was generic and had few new things to offer. And yes, their banter at the beginning of the drama was entertaining, but not enough to keep things interesting till the final episode, which was filled with emotions.
At least the performances were enjoyable by every actor and actress in the cast.
So, overall, three out of ten.

Korean Drama '' The Escape of the Seven: Resurrection '' is the second season of the makjang that gives the conclusion to the story.The drama was over the top, as was expected from a drama of that genre, but, still, there were some elements that just got too far and ended up being cringey. Also, the plot got boring at times, as the twists were stale.
There were some characters that did get a big change of character, even though that didn't redeem them from what they did to Da Mi.
Also, the romance was okay, but the characters didn't have any chemistry, nor there was any romantic scenes, so there was not point in the whole ordeal.
Finally, the performances were enjoyable.

Korean Drama '' The Impossible Heir '' is a melodrama about the relationship between two young men.On paper, the storyline sounds fantastic, however, the first part of the drama is quite a let down. The drama actually takes a bit to settle down and find its way. With the family drama being lukewarm and the weak romance trying to take the main place in the plot, the series was quite boring for that part.
The second part, on the other hand, was quite intense and enjoyable. With the main lead taking a turn and embracing his dark side, the thriller got better and more action scenes were added.
Finally, the performances varied from good to wooden.
So, overall, five out of ten.

Korean Drama '' Yellow Boots '' is a melodrama with a revenge plot.Though the drama starts a bit awkward, introducing the characters and their relationship between them, things get better and better as the drama progresses. Without unnecessary overdramatic scenes and outbursts, the story truly gives a satisfying result in the end, which is quite dramatic. However, the final episodes were roughly chopped and edited, which made the drama look like a low-budget one, which was not the case, as the rest of it was smooth and the pace was just perfect.
Also, the performances were great, and, the characters' development was nicely handled. The characters were interesting to boot.
So, overall, eight out of ten.

Korean Drama '' Doctor Slump '' is a slice of life melodrama with some medical drama hints.The drama has a healing story, with the romance being well paced and starting from academic rivals, to friends, to lovers, which shifted the story from the love story to the difficulties the characters had to face and overcome. Hence, the slow pace helped the mood of the drama a lot.
Unfortunately, the second half of the drama felt more like a filler. There were only a few things left to be resolved and a few new things to be added to the story. At this point, the side couple was the one who kept things interesting and offered a lot of adorable moments.
Finally, the performances were all enjoyable by everyone in the cast.
So, overall, six out of ten.

Korean Drama '' Welcome to Samdalri '' is a drama about family and going back to one's roots in order to heal and reset.The drama has a nice mood, with the setting being a countryside-seaside village and the small community vibes aided the story greatly.
Also, the side characters were all interesting, especially the sisters, and their stories were funny, emotional, and original. Also, the family drama was really sweet and sad at the same time.
On the other hand, the main characters were not written well. The female lead was annoying, and the male lead was just a nice guy, without any other trade. Which is a pitty, as both actors are strong and always give enjoyable performances. Also, their romance was boring and predictable.
So, overall, six out of ten.
