Revenge of others
Hmm interesting that it is 18+ type of drama, I do not remember things to make it for this age, but I can be wrong. There are many serious topic as suicide, mental problems, bullying. But cast played really well, had great chemistry together. I like the plot twists, I like that it has only 12 episodes, it is perfect amount for this drama. But there are some questions unaswered - as for example his illness. But yes as far as it can sound weird with topics of drama I had fun watching this.Was this review helpful to you?
Soundtrack #2
It was short and cute kdrama. I am also happy with who she choosed - yes love triangle, but it pretty normal, not some kind of fighting between male characters - so if you are not the biggest fan of this concept then it can still work out. As far as I like it I have to admit that I much more like soundtrack #1 - maybe cast worked better or just a plot, I do not know but I still think that this is worth watching.Was this review helpful to you?
Two lights: relumino
It is more an advertisment than actual drama but when I saw Park Hyung Sik I had to watch and it was good. It could work perfectly as a short kdrama, for example 4 episodes? so we could learn more about characters.If I remember right I even cried - It is a meaningful short movie - so yes everybody can watch it, it will not take much of your time and you will watch one more beautiful production.

Link: eat, love, kill
It is a easy and fun kdrama, there is mystery, romance, comedy. some crazy/chaotic moments and a little bit of fantasy. Main leads are cute together, also it is my first drama with them and I liked them a lot, they played really well. I am happy that everything was explained and they did not leave a open ending and many questions unaswered ( I do not know if we can count it as a spoiler).Also the OST, omg the song "Connect" - it is so beautiful.

Everything and nothing
Why I choosed to watch it? First reason - Park Si Eun, I really like her in Stayc and when I heard she was also an actress I just needed to check it out - and yes she was amazing.Second reason - it is short, 4 episodes for 0,5 hour - yes, binge-watching worthy.
But it is not a happy, smiley show, there are meaningful and sad topics but definitely something worth watching.

Business proposal
First I need to say how wrong I was, I thought this drama was overhyped and watching this would be waste of time - well my opinion was just wrong and I would regret if I did not give it a chance.Second couple was perfect, cast had excellent chemistry and played really well (although I am not the biggest fan of Ahn Hyo Seop, he worked here well), Kim Sejeong - she was amazing, like it was even a question?
Yes this is typical rom-com but if you looking for something light, easy to watch and like this type of genre then this is one of the best to choose.
I feel like the ending was a bit rushed or just needed one more episodes but still very good drama.

Bring it on, Ghost!
I was abroad and it was one of view shows I could watch on amazon and I am satisfied that I watched this. It is fun drama with some scenes for crying (well as expected, in the end most korean production - even happy ones - have view sad scenes). Chemistry was cute. First kdrama with Kim So Hyun where I could find out how good she is. Ok Taec Yeon - I watched vincenzo first, I already knew how amazing actor he is but seeing him in this role just proved it. If you like fantasy drama I highly recommend this one.Was this review helpful to you?
A year-end medley
Perfect movie if you are looking for something light. It is really cute and adorable production. Couples and stories are enjoyable. It is really good movie for winter/christmass season - if someone likes watching during specific time of the year. I do believe that this story could also work as a drama, maybe not 16 episodes long but for example 6 episodes would work perfectly cause some things could get better explanations, but still this movie is totally worth watching.Was this review helpful to you?
Tomorrow
There is fantasy, actions, drama, romance, happy and sad scenes ( a lot of sad scenes so be ready for crying) - just full package. Cast did really well. The concept is interesting, every episode is about different story - if I remember correctly it is sometimes like half story for one episode and other half for next. Some of this stories could easily be their own drama ( maybe not as long but for short ones perfect). It contains a lot of meaningfull topics so I recommed to watch it.Was this review helpful to you?

Page Turner
I choosed this drama because Kim So Hyun and cause it is short, only 3 episodes so easy fo binge-watching. First of all there is not any romance eventhough it seemed like there would be ( I do not know if it counts as spoiler). The plot is meaningfull, there are different struggles and character's development. There is no way to not cry while watching. Definitely worth watching.Was this review helpful to you?

Kakegurui
It is probably my first japanese drama and I liked it a lot. Hamabe Minami was excellent as main character. The concept is fun and interesting, It is for sure less "sexual" than anime and this is advantage for me. I wished they explained more about Yumeko's family. Also I like a little romance so I would love to see it between Yumeko and Ryota but this is not this type of drama.There is not many episodes and they are not long so this drama is a binge-watched worthy, although there are also movies, second season and a spin-off.

Death's game
I do not really know if it is a spoiler or not but this drama for sure is not for people who do not like brutal scenes, there are quite a lot maybe not so much visually but still. Also it is a pretty bloody. So not for everyone even if you love the cast.And if talk about th cast it was perfect, Seo In Guk was amazing, Park So Dam was so good, everyone played their roles perfectly.
I do not really think that we can treat as a two seasons drama, it is more like there was just a short break but it is not that important.
This drama is good, with excellent cast and very good OST.

Weak hero class 1
Well I know this is one of the most hyped drama (I will not say overhyped since it is really well played and at the time I do not think there was any other as liked "revenge" type of drama) and I probably did not watch this at the right cause it is after Friendly rivarly and meantime Buried hearts (so there is already revenge) and after Newtopia (so violence also was tthere) - I just should have watched something lighter waiting for The divorce insurance - but moving on, still not bad rating, simply not for my The best of 2022's list.Okay moving on to characters (I will write actors' names but I am writing about characters):
Park Ji Hoon - he is amazing actor, his role is totally different from At distance spring is green (Love him there) or Love revolution , his character at the beginning made me think that he would work great in The uncanny counter (maybe someday if we will get season 3 - also now I want him, Cho Byeong Gyu, Kim Sejeong and maybe Roh Jeong Eui in one drama) - in my opinion he for the first time had real friends, so he became really close to them. Also I think he felt guilty, that it was his fault that CHW was taking revenge and that is why everything bad happened (although great bromance - I really see only frienship between him and the rest of guys), in the end he needs to heal after all this trauma (it is clear that it is there) - also he was not weak, since episode one he knew how to fight and knew how to protect himself, the weakest in this was HK.
Choi Hyun Wook - he did not deserved what happened to him, but he isn't a saint (none of the main 3 is to be honest - violence is not the only solution), he was super friendly and maybe it is the reason why some people got wrong idea (guy number 3) or maybe he is bi if we really looking into boy/boy love. Spoiler - it was said that he will not wake up - so I guess his injuries was so bad that he is in pernament coma, probably brain dead.
Hong Kyung - guy number 3, well his father is sh*t, so in this terms there is a lot of reasons to feel bad for him, also I do believe that he fell in love with CHW (maybe his sexuality was a reason for bullying in his former school), if all of his actions as some people are saying was because of instagram then it is literally the most stupid reason, it was simply jealousy......but still his actions was wrong, nothing justify this, he went too far and he is not a victim (at least he felt a little guilty and cared that CHW was in bad condiction, still he is a villain in this story).
Lee Yeon - she did nothing wrong!!! it was not her fault at all, she was more like a sister to CHW, he took care of her so it is only natural that she wanted to be close to him and it is clear that she was more into PJH (and I would like them together), she also did not really wanted to exlude HK, it was also new to her, keep in mind that she also did not have normal life.
Also nice to see some actors I knew from other dramas: Shin Seung Ho, Cha Woo Min, Yoon Jung Hoon, Kim Su Gyeom and Jo Han Chul (totally different father from Love next door). Worth mentioning: Na Chul (RIP).
I think that there were a little too much violence and too little their friendship/bond, they keep telling about killing - so none of them was saint neither right in theirs behaviors - you cannot beat violence with violence - but it is this type of drama and it is about bullying (extreme level). Ending make it clear for me that no matter where you go the same problems, violence and bullies will be there.
I do not see a reason for season 2 to be honest, but if it will be released I will be watching. I understand why people love it, it reminded me of Dokgo rewind, acting is perfect, episodes are short but there is actually a lot happening, so to sum up yeah it is worth watching.

My Undead Yokai Girlfriend
One of my biggest disappointment for 2024....I really like Yoshikawa Ai's acting and her character - that was actually the best part. Maybe this was production where japanese acting was not for me? Some people point out that it is too much western like - maybe that is truth. Cause I like the idea of the plot, it was something totally my taste but it just not work for me.Was this review helpful to you?
Spice up our love
Must have if you watched No gain,no love. Also maybe my rating of this is lower than main story but it is still a good one and it is short so why not? Although I feel like it should have at least one more episode and it work a little better.I really like chemistry between Lee Sang Yi and Han Ji Hyun, they were really cute. Also I really like this type of plot - W two words is one of my favourite dramas and this is pretty similar in the main part - living in webtoon.
What bothered me was her hair colour during the part from No gain, no love - I know that it is stupid reason but why her hair was suddenly black? I love that after credits we got clip of Lee Sang Yi's singing, I really like this song, it will go to my playlist.
Also I really like Exhuma's was mentioned - althought I have not watched it yet.
All in all it is something worth watching.
