Short and sweet
April 16, 2021History2: Crossing the Line is sweet and fluffy. Both couples are good. This one is really a breeze to watch. Definitely recommended for someone who wants a short fluff with no heavy dramas. I also like how this one does not have that crazy gf trope, I really hate those types of shows. Sorry, not sorry.
Though what pissed me off about the plot is that it's too short. I know they tried to wrap everything up at the end so the viewers feel satisfied. But I don't think I was satisfied at all. Please I know it's been a few years and they prolly won't have a sequel for their storyline. But I hope they did more. It's really a pity that it's short but then again that's the reason why I recommend it for someone who wants one day binge type of a show.
Anyway, make sure to watch it!!

CHEMISTRY OVERLOAD
April 13, 2021History 3: Trapped, hands down one of the steamiest and strongest chemistry out there for both main and second lead couple. However, there are major flaws in writing especially in the plot. Like how did Officer Meng went from hating Tang Yi to suddenly loving him. It was such a huge jump in terms of feelings that it bothered me so much. Also, HOW ON EARTH IS OFFICER MENG AND HIS SUBORDINATE THE ONE WHO IS LINKED WITH JACK BOTH POLICE. LIKE NOT GONNA LIE BUT THESE TWO CAN BE HUGE IMBECILES. Another huge plot that irked me is the villain, how can you make such a big deal of finding the real culprit then make it underwhelming the moment they are caught. It's like there was no climax...
Anyway on to the good stuff. Honestly, this would be a 10/10 if they fixed that storyline. I already talked about chemistry so now I'll talk about their dynamics. First of all, Officer Meng and Tang Yi, Officer Meng literally turned Tang Yi into such a soft puppy towards him only. Like, when Officer Meng did not answer him for a day, Tang Yi was about to bawl his eyes out. Also, I find their statement "let's kiss then talk" so hilarious. These two make out so good like daaaaamnnn. Their steamy scenes really got me running around my room like Tang Yi and Officer Meng are so aggressive even when they had angry s- yah that part heheh
Jack and Officer Meng's subordinate REALLY OUT HERE SHOWING WHAT LOVE CAN DO. JACK GAVE UP EVERYTHING FOR THAT MAN. IF THAT AIN'T LOVE THEN IDK WHAT THAT IS. They made me so jealous like I want this kind of relationship in my life. Jack has the biggest growth in terms of character development, I really wanted more of their scenes. I hope these two actors can star in another drama or even their own spin-off cause holy mother- their chemistry is just off the roof.

Fri and Sats are now boring ?
FEB 19, 2021Although I wasn’t a big fan of season 1, I am so interested in the story. So I am excited for seasons 2 and 3. Since it is still on air, Ill give a update every 6 as a review so I guess Ill be here 3x.
I LOVE THE PILOT EPISODE! I am so interested on how the story will unfold. Like YoonYoon couple, Jenny’s character development and more!!
March 27, 2021
OH DAMN SEASON 2 was one of a hell of a ride. I hope OHY didn’t die cuz wtf was that. Also, I feel so bad for the real Ae Gyo. She seems like she would have been a great mother if it weren’t for Dan Tae. Also, Logan wtf why didn’t u tell OHY about her daughter being alive. Like arghh

I will love you in a any universe
May 28, 2024Lovely Runner has ended and I am so sad about that. A drama that has been boycotted in the beginning yet able to surpass all the hate it received. Able to be loved by many viewers like me. A drama, I was so hyped to watch and it delivered all until the very last episode. A drama that ignited my Kdrama slump as other kdramas fell flat. Lovely Runner, you have jumped to the S-tier list of my Kdramas. I know that many might say "how is this S-tier?". Well in my opinion, it is. A mixture of rom-com, fantasy, time travel. A lovely casts and it make sense why it took a while for production to hit. Thank you for those who rejected the previous offered role of Sunjae as I would not think any other actor than Byeon Woo Seok can play him. Sunjae was made to be played by him. And with our lovely female lead Kim Hye Yoon, she played Sol real well.
The plot progression of this drama is amazing. It perfectly captured the 16 episode timeslot that they deserved. Each Mon and Tues I look forward to watched, I have never been disappointed. Only kept wanting more and being hooked more onto the upcoming episode. It was indeed a lovely ride (yes, I'll keep using this word a lot... heheh.). I feel that no drama will fill the hole this will leave in my heart as any of the upcoming dramas/on going dramas right now are not my cup of tea.
I am happy how they never made the second lead a bad person. He truly deserved the best, Tae Song, I hope you were able to find your partner whom will love you. Our loserism, male lead, I think this characteristic of his, is the reason why so many people love him. To be honest, we are all sick of the rich boy, smart student tropes. His personality is a fresh of breath and that is why it is so well-received. I truly want a Sunjae in my life, someone who is a green flag, a forest of green, like him. I am happy how he was able to survive all of the demise upon him. It was just so fulfilling seeing him happy at the end. For our female lead, I love her so much. The development of her character and growth was chef's kiss. She really beat the odds against them. Sol, I am so proud of you. And I know many viewers have criticize you for being dramatic and overly a cry-baby. But I will always defend you given how much you have to witness and suffer.
Can we also talk about how great the chemistry of our leads? It was off the charts, through the roof. They gave all the fluffs, the pain, the angst, the tears, all the we needed to feel. We felt that.
I don't want to say goodbye yet since the past month has been amazing due to Lovely Runner.
I can't wait to rewatch you again. You are one of my comfort drama that I will keep on rewatching over and over again.

From Queen of Tears to Viewer's Tears
April 28, 2024Queen of Tears is that Kdrama that I have been waiting for ever since it was announced. For me, I definitely had great expectations with this series and I think it did deliver that.
I do believe that the casts carried the majority of the little plot holes that kind of existed. Nevertheless, it was a great ride of show in terms of really feeling rom-com, angsty, dramatic, and mysterious vibes of it.
The chemistry is oozing, that was something that we all cheered and devoured. Like when are we going to find our own Hyun-woo? Our main leads put their best acting and solidified their A list Kdrama actors' status for sure. Before watching the finale, I have been seeing the reviews or the criticism of other viewers. And I must say, there is a point of overly hatred towards this drama. I definitely agree that certain plot tropes and progression could have been better in a sense. Like there are couple characters that were introduced but never really was served a sense of purpose in a way. But I do think that it is more on the minimal side, and it will only really really bother you if you pay attention like a detective.
For the first quarter of 2024 kdramas, I can definitely say that Queen of Tears deserve its popularity and support from both local and international audiences.
That 2 hour finale was amazing and I think that it something I would love to rewatch again as my comfort show.

Suspenseful
Oct. 2, 2021Squid Game is one of those dramas where humans are in such a desperate state that they have lost their ability to have human compassion. To be honest, I really love the first half of the series. I am assuming that there must be a plan for a second season as the ending implied it unless they really wanna fk us up and give that ending with no sequel.
For the characters of the Squid Game, I think that the writers really gave us a huge variety of personalities and perspectives through each ones. Though, there are some characters that I absolutely despised and thank god they are gone. But I fking hate those VIPs. I need them dead, I don't think I will be able to rest and I will not continue to shut up unless those mfs get their deserved karma for using people for their fking entertainment.
With all these, I did feel a bit underwhelmed with the latter half of season 1. I feel like the writing has become sloppy and that it kinda fell into the constant repetition that made it a bit harder to finish the series. I did skip multiple scenes in the latter half as it seems uninteresting and unnecessary. I did cry for all the characters that I loved since they all really just died. Like damn, that hurt like a bitch tbh. I wished they kept my girl like come on. But oh well, it is what it is.

SWEET, SHORT, CONCISE, BUT FULFILLING
Mar. 10, 2022OMFG, Sematic Error adaptation is just chef's kiss. As someone who has read the manhwa of it, I try not to compare them together as obviously this is an adaptation and that there are some differences. But I just wanna throw it out here that for those who wanna see more details and understand each lead, PLEASE READ THE MANHWA. It's really good.
Is there even more to say? The leads are lovely, I want them so much. Can I please have both of them 🙈
But as with most Korean BLs, this is for someone who wants a concise and easy to follow the plot. If you are looking for yk the typical full-length kdramas, this is ain’t it for you! But please really do consider reading the manhwas as well. They are both awesomeee!!!

S-TIER DRAMA TO WRAP UP THIS YEAR
Dec. 14, 2021Oh my gawd, this drama is the perfect cherry on top to end this goddamn year. Every single episode was packed and full of interesting stories that is clearly laid out. Definitely, the superior drama for the latter half of 2021. Park Hyungsik and Han Hyo Joo really snapped with their comeback. I couldn’t care less for what others might say but let me tell you I love this drama. From all the overhyped drama released this year, Happiness deserves better ratings and popularity.
The off the chart chemistry of Yi Hun and Sae Bom. OH MY GAWDDDDDDDD. I lowkey wished they gave us an episode just full of cliché of them being romantic cause I will literally live for that. Anyhow, the plot is perfect, the music is perfect, the cast is magnificent. One of the few dramas this year where I don't have any complaint at all. I really just wish for a special episode like is that too much to ask for? I really love our trio, Yi Hun and Sae Bom and their 'child' ahahaha. For all the other characters like the ones in the apartment can die like literally. They are down horrendous and the worst people I have ever seen. I really wish they got death instead of jail. I really don't believe that jail is the necessary punishment for them. I never felt this type of anger, I feel like Penthouse was the last drama I really felt this way.
Anyway, make sure to watch happiness, it will give you a rollercoaster of a ride. Also, prepare some tissues cause you will fking need it 😭

Decent but rough, pretty much a trashy romance type of show yk
Aug 4, 2021Hmmm I don’t even know what words to say for this series. Like its decent not bad but not good either. Both leads are either too dumb or too pushy and very desperate? Honestly some parts are so frustrating but I wasn’t bored either. Like I laughed on parts and skipped episodes…. So even I am confused 🤔 like I don’t even know what to say or if I recommend this for other people… but yeaa 💀
I’ll prolly categorize this as those trashy romance cliché drama if you know what I mean …
