The atypical family
Funny thing I thought that it was out in 2023.It was funny, warm at times, I fell in love with the cast, their chemistry was on point, characters sometimes were annoying but it made them more human. I love the romance part. Also love the ending eventhought many people say that it was rushed and more an open ending (spoiler or not) - still there is some right, the last episode could be even 5 minutes longer and it would work perfectly.

Love in sync
It was soo much better than I expected, after some reviews I thought that maybe it will be at best 7/10 but I liked it a lot - finally something I binged watched after so long time (not only because I enjoyed it so much, but I finally had some free time to do it). There is perfect amount of episoded (side note: I am fun of 8 episodes format, 12 also works, but at the moment I feel like 16 is too much) and they were not too long, none episode is 60 minutes long (side note #2: I also prefer shorter episodes, longer than 60 minutes is too long; side note #3 I would love if in this case episodes were really 60 minutes long).Characters were easy to like, I literally love main couple, chemistry was soo good and they were so cute. I also like how they show how toxic is entertainment industy (not only Korean, in general, if someone believes that Hollywood is any better then they are simply naive) and how easy it is to destroy careers with false accusations.
I was so happy to finally see Kang Min Ah as a main character, especially when she was so different comparing to At a distance spring is green. She acted amazing, it was not an easy role.
Same with L, it was nice to watch something with him again, I could not believe that it was the same actor who played in Angel, Last mission love - I hardly believe that different hair make it harder xd.
I also liked a plot - eventhough many people point out there was any, maybe it was a little messy but at the same time it made perfect sense, her life was messy after all false scandals. I also liked the way they shared emotions, it remined me of Link:eat, love, kill.
To sum up: I loved it, I could totally watch more with them and I regret that it is finished. I really reccommend it if you like any actor from it or want something easy and short to watch.

Can this love be translated?
At first I did not plan to watch this, I do not know what change in the meantime. Big plus that episodes were out on release date (eventhough I watched it for a long time and could finished sooner only because I was sick - great I could watch it, not great to be sick).It is mostly calm type of drama, all characters were likeable - really no one was annoying. There are only 12 episodes and I think that it was good amount, although for a moment I thought that it could end at episode 10 (it would not work well).
Acting was great. Chemistry was perfect, I really like main couple - althought I feel I like second a little more - both were cute - what happened with kdrama and beginning relationship with sexy time XD?
Small spoiler - I am really happy that it the end she was going to therapy, I was afraid that they would ignore the fact that she needed it.
All in all, it was really great drama, totally worth watching.
Side note: it is not a good idea to write reviews after two weeks xd

Gangnam B-side
Better than I expected!! Totally worth giving a shot, althougth there is a lot of violence, it is a little brutal and there is a lot of blood but no really disgusting? I mean it was not too visual - but if you do not like watching violence then do not watch it. Also I do not think there is need for second season.But moving to characters - which will be named as actors in review cause it is easier for me - Ji Chang Wook was a little as a game character (but personally I like it), he playes antihero here, also many people were happy because of "reunion" with Bibi - and yes there is chemistry, but my enemies to lovers heart felt more chemistry with Ha Yoon Kyung - eventhougth they did not have many moments - also I am happy that her character in the end was not a villain.
What more it was rather clear that Bibi and Oh Ye Ju was more than friends. And moving to Oh Ye Ju - her revenge act does not really make sense to me, like it was not really something she should or really could do and if she -spoiler- just would gave video to her father as she was asked to many things would not happen.
But moving to most important thing from this drama - it shows how famous/rich/popular/anyone to be honest can act as a really nice person and meantime do some crazy sh*t - first half of drama really reminded of burning sun scandal in some aspects, so in my opinion it is important to remember that we really do not know our "idols" and they can be really awful people - no matter male or female (and I do not mean only kpop, cause let's be real hollywood is not saint either)
In general it was really good drama.

YG future strategy office
Why would you want to watch this? personally I believe the only reason is to see other YG entertaiment's idols (like blackpink, ikon) or even other idols (as Sunmi or Chung Ha, Moon Sua - probably the time when she was still YG's trainee) or actors (as Yoo In Na). Because I do not really know any other reason. Maybe cause it is short?Okay on the other note Son Se Bin was pretty good. But it still does not change that this show has many stupid jokes, scenes, some really uncomfortable. And well Seungri he is still piece of sh*t and I do not think many people will ever watch it after all he did when he is the main cast.

The tyrant
The idea of plot - good. Acting - amazing. Action - great. Fact that it is in The Witch universe - even better. Unfortunately I am disappointed. As it is hard to believe this short drama would work better if it was a little shorter? One episode less? It was just sometimes boring eventhough the storyline suppose to be good. But maybe if there will be part 3 of the movies it all will make perfect sense and will work perfectly as a whole series.Trigger - it is a little brutal.

Love buzz
Hmm I do not really know why I have watched this, probably because it is short. Well it was cute, sad, there is some "mystery" - pretty much for such short movie. I do not know if it is the best movie ever but it is nowhere bad, something to watch when we do not have much time but still want see something to relax.If you love Bae In Hyuk I am sure that you will check it out.

The uncanny counter: Counter punch
When I saw the news that we will get a second season I was so happy. I really love this characters and how well they match each other.Somun's hair just perfect, I am curious if we get season 3 with his orange hair.
I really like plot and new villains, ending was good. I am not sure if I needed more episodes or if this was perfect amount, but I had great time watching this.
The only thing I wish had happened was Somun and Do Hana, I am 100% team Somun, I am sorry but I do not feel any chemistry between Dohwi and Do Hana, it is more like just one last thing from her past so it just reminds her good all days so I do not see any reason for them to create new relationship. Somun and Do Hana's hug scene was everything.

The uncanny counter
I was not sure if I should watch it or not and I am totally happy that I did. There is comedy, action, sad scenes and fantasy - you can really find everything in this drama. Cho Byeong Kyu did great job, Kim Sejeong is amazing and her song for this drama is a masterpiece, in general cast was really good. I love how they have curly hairs. It could even have 20 episodes and I would be happy.Was this review helpful to you?
Tale of the Nine-tailed
Cast is perfect, they all played their roles really well. I really like the storyline - but I like fantasy. Chemistry between leads was amazing and for me opinions that there were none are just weird, this is my favourite match if I had to rank other pairing with Jo Bo Ah or Lee Dong Wook. Also this hair colour for Lee Dong Wook - OMG, he looks so good.Also I wished to have their fox bag charm :D

My strange hero
Wish it was more popular. Love the cast, acting and chemistry. The main couple was so cute. Also Yoo Seung Ho has so adorable smile. This drama was something different that I expected but in totally good way, if I could I would binge-watched it.Some people might thought that there is too many episodes but they are short so it really is as typical 16 episodes drama. I am so happy that I gave this drama a chance.

Destined with you
Disclaimer - unpopular opinion but I love Jo Bo Ah as an actress, she is one of my favourite.So about the drama, chemistry, chemistry and once again chemistry - I really love her and Ro Woon together and I love their characters. For me the plot was perfect, I like this type of story.
In my opinion it is a very good drama, one of my favourite from 2023.

Angel's last mission: love
I am so happy that I found this drama, Shin Hye Sun is amazing actress (it is so impressive that she learned ballet for this role), chemistry between leads was very good, the story was perfect for happy and sad moments and I am very satisfied with the ending.I wish that more people would know this cause it's really worth watching.

A shop for killers
First of all I really love Lee Dong Wook and his acting so there was no way to not watch it. Story is really interesting and acting is perfect. Chemistry between actors is really good. I don't feel like there was a need for more episodes although I hope that there would be second season,there are some unanswered questions, but even if there's ending was well made.In my opinion one of the best kdrama's from 2024.

Strawberry milk
Well it is really hard to give any review since I do not remember much - so I believe that I will not put any spoiler here. You can watch it on amazon prime and it is super shot - so if you are doing some challenges like 52 movies per year then this is perfect option if you need something fast. And as far as I remember it was cute and simple, nothing extraordinary but still good and cozy.Was this review helpful to you?
