chillingindoors

I just finished the first episode, and I think this has the potential to be more than 10 episodes if they flesh out the story and characters well.
Also the first episode was fantastic.

The pilot had me hooked instantly. I'm so intrigued and invested.
This has the potential to be so dark and fantastic..
Tseng Ching Hua looked chilling in some of the scenes.
Looking forward to binging the rest of the episodes.

It's not the cliches that bothered me (i mean every romcom has it), rather it was how superficial and bland it was. I couldn't care less for either of the MLs or the FL for that matter.
Luckily I was doing household chores while watching this so it wasn't exactly a waste of my time otherwise I would have punched the shit out of my pillow for spending my precious time this way.

In every T-drama that I've seen her in, she never fails to make me laugh. Love her!

All the episodes are out *runs to watch* :))))))

This drama broke me because I saw myself in Le Le. Her love and devotion for her father to the point that there is no room for other relationships in her life, her loneliness, her traumas, her father's growing illness, her pain, her humour, her resilience - I have lived through all that. No matter how hard we try to be positive and do our best, life has its way of tiring us and making us feel lonely.

I can't even bring myself to write an objective review on this because this wasn't just a drama. This was personal. Beautifully written, directed, acted, and scored all around, with Hsieh Ying Xuan giving a performance of a lifetime as Le Le. I do wish other characters were fleshed out better but I guess this was meant to be Le Le's journey through and through.

Highly recommend this for people looking to watch something of substance that doesn't sugarcoat or romanticise life. This is as real as it gets.

Equally talented screenwriter and director as well :)
Check out the latest drama she wrote and directed 'Forget You Not' - it's fantastic.

No takers for a Takahashi Issei drama?!
Hope some fansubber takes this up..

Taiwan seems to be churning out a lot of political dramas lately...

I was instantly hooked by the pilot. Definitely binging this.
So so happy to see Narimiya Hiroki back :))

SAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE :)

After a year of waiting, this has finally seen the light of the day! 13 Nov 2025 here I come!!!

I logged in to MDL after 6 months and this still hasn't aired.. SIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

I saw a notification for 'The Romance Manga Artist' and I was like which drama is this?!
Looks like they've changed the Japanese titles to English ones.. it's all so confusing now.

Oh yes, will get back to you on the recommendations..

My take is that she didn't want to give Kamiya any opportunity to stop her. Also the moment she saw Shiro, she lost all sense of reason and jumped for love. I'm pretty sure she didn't think of the consequences.
Sigh.. she could have been so happy with Kamiya..

I guess its time to re-watch KNYH.. been years.

I have definitely outgrown this genre because 10 mins into the movie, I found myself questioning
- how the hell is she ugly?
- what is so ugly about having curls?
- why does she not have an identity beyond her romantic life?
- why do so many kdramas set in small towns have that accent (different towns have varied accents you know, not all of them have this accent)

Maybe it ended up being a lot deeper.. I don't know. It's probably just me. Nothing against the story. Dropped.

Similar on what basis? The toxicity or the nudity?

If you click on the pages of the 90s dramas I listed, most of them have my comment with the link to watch.
Which drama(s) are you looking for?

Maybe they were removed, because I watched all of them on that link. You may wish to check the original site I credited.
