18 vs 29 (2005) - having been a fan of amnesia themed dramas before, I guess I did enjoyed what this drama have offered. More on the comedic side, cute and romantic but I preferred that it should have been a movie rather than a drama. The 16 episode long drama didn't really quite grasp the whole believable factor that I would have liked to fully develop the drama.

The characters were a bit too comedic that it turns out childish to watchers like me. Though lessons are given to viewers it was not properly executed as a whole.

Not rewatchable as well.

My Name is Kim Sam Soon (2005) - never thought I would still watch this drama, 5 years earlier than Secret Garden and I find the outfits so crazy and funny including the hairstyles, but it's a fun and somewhat realistic story especially the emotional parts of the drama.

Although the male lead is a chaebol, what I like is that they did not limit the flow of emotions, both with the lead characters and also the side characters. Want to applaud Sun-ah for playing Sam Soon and embracing her role that I could really see her flaws specifically in the physical aspect. I find her awkward with a slim body, though she is really originally a thin actress. She gained weight for this drama, and that is a committed actress.

Wonderful Life (2005) - one the dramas that I find out while watching our local network television ABS-CBN and I rewatched this one via CD/DVD.

One of the cute dramas especially dealing with parenthood and family. It has also some slice of life themes even though in a comedic type of portrayal. Although it has a cliche plot which is the norm in korean dramas before, still I like this drama. Both Eugene and Jae Won are great at their respective roles and the child is soooo cute. Overall, cute romance drama.

Girl From Nowhere (Thailand) (2018) - I watched this one because of Christian Antolin's video, I was curious because it is at top 4 on Netflix.

The first episode was really engaging for me but I think it drag out as it goes. I like that per episode there is a different storyline. There are stories that is about 2 episodes long but eventually the stories are for me unique. Maybe because it is a Thai drama which is so different from what I would usually watch. It's nice but there are episodes that I don't like. Hoping to see the second season soon if I had the time.

The Crown Princess (Thailand) (2018) - it’s just my second Thailand drama after Full House and I must say, “they are spending money”. Portrayal of a monarchial type of drama for me is pretty expensive. I like the outfits of the characters in the drama, and I find them all attractive. Another aspect is that I really like the main leads. There is really chemistry. I find them great together.

Although there is lacking in special effects especially the ‘action’ parts, I find it fine. I like also the sound effects, is appealing as I was watching. Although I already know the culprit even if it was not revealed, I still hope that it would not be her until the end, but sadly she is the one. More likely I’d be happy if the ending wasn’t like that but nevertheless it is justifiable. I will recommend this, especially those who had not encountered thailand dramas.

UPrince The Series: The Single Lawyer (Thailand) (2017) - I think I like the plot of this uprince series among the others that I have seen. The sad thing is that they didn't fully utilized the plot.

The main leads are attractive looking but lacking in acting skills. I find it a struggle to watch because the portrayal is lousy. The revelations in the end was a really good turning point of the drama, and I find it regretful since it is really a good drama. I hope a remake would be done with this either by a korean or a japanese, or a Filipino one that could give justice to the story.

Cute story but not well portrayed.

UPrince The Series: The Playful Comm-Arts (Thailand) (2016) - I didn't like it at first but it grew in my heart. Maybe because the main female lead is so cute, she carried the show. I don't find the male lead attractive, maybe that is why I cannot relate how cute is Sung.

Overall a cute drama, with a comedic fluff thing. Still, I find the female lead frustrating, as a role. She had her different antics which I find annoying.


I would not rewatch since I'm not someone who rewatch a drama.......

UPrince The Series: The Absolute Economist (Thailand) (2016) - surprisingly I find this entertaining to watch, maybe because my expectations is already low given the previous UPRINCE series I have watched.

At first I really didn't like the female lead's role, she really just have a huge crush unto the male lead but as it goes on she grew on me. The actress just acted the role/character and I find her cute at the end of the series. Well, most likely the male lead is handsome but the acting is not it. Another factor that make me like the drama is the second couple alongside the main lead, though they are not the center of the drama, I like that it had little portions of their love story, cute.

UPrince The Series: The Badass Baker (Thailand) (2016) - this series is more likely annoying for me as a viewer. Though I find the leads cute together and they do have chemistry, I just don't like the male lead. The female lead is okay, she is good.

I don't know I think 4 episodes is too short to tackle the story as a whole and the romance part is not as evident or as realistic since the romance development is not that seen.

I would not rewatch since I don't usually rewatch dramas.

UPrince The Series: The Lovely Geologist (Thailand) (2016) - I think out of all the UPrince Series that I have seen, the main male lead is the most handsome among them all, T-Rex is really cute!

The story for me is quite unto the teenager-ish feels to it, and honestly I find the guy a bit annoying, if I was the female lead I think I would feel the same way as her.

The transitions in the drama is pretty good as well. I was just not convinced with the romance part of the drama because all I could see is the friendship.

UPrince The Series: The Gentle Vet (Thailand) (2016) - the second installment for the Thailand drama series, and I must say I like the storyline for this one better than the first. What makes it a little bit disappointing is that the main male lead is not that handsome compared to the first installment.

What I like about it is that it is really fast paced and that there are not so many fillers. Unnecessary parts is not shown, having a bit of a thrill side to it as well, I guess this installment is quite likeable.

Acting wise, not so sure. Quite awkward actors and actresses.

UPrince The Series: The Handsome Cowboy (Thailand) (2016) - another Thailand drama that I just watched because I have a copy. Why is this drama like this? It so not my type, I just really hate the main lead. He is just a jerk. I really didn't like the main lead at all but I just did finish the drama.

One thing I did like about the drama is the ureport segment part, which is new for me, and also you should really choose wise friends since they would really know how to determine between the wrong and right guy.

And I'm questioning the ending, why is it like this writers? AAAAAAAH. I hope the other UPrince Series is not like this.

Boku, Unmei no Hito desu (I'm Your Destiny) (Japan) (2017) - just finished this one and I really like this. It's been a long time since I last watch Japanese Dramas and this drama became a breath of fresh air for me as a watcher.

The overall theme of drama is romance but I still like that it does not fully focuses on that alone. The "efforts" done by the main lead is really attractive for me as a watcher of romance genres. The conversations between him and 'God' in the drama is so fun, the sideline characters - friends, coworkers and family are good addition to a simple plot that the drama presented.

Even though it is more likely a cliche storyline, I like that the pacing of the drama is not the usual and how the whole story is done. The drama exudes cuteness. Japanese dramas that I've seen are more likely incline to teach you something along the way, and I did feel that I learned throughout the drama. I had fun watching this one. Excited to see more Japanese dramas.

To Be Continued is one of the web-dramas that introduces a KPop Group particularly in the drama is Astro. Since it’s a webdrama and focuses on the kpop world, it’s a good drama but not as good as maybe exo next door or dream knight since I could remember bits of those drama compared to this. This drama seems too short for my liking but it's okay since the main purpose of this drama is to bring out the members. The acting for me is subpar which is understandable since they are kpop idols not actors.

My Dangerous Wife (2020) - as to why I watched this version ongoing is because I want to understand better the drama since I find the Japanese drama questionable/confusing. Though there is this bit of additional characters, I think the essence of the whole storyline was really the same with the Japanese, I feel like the literally copied the drama which I appreciate. Of course there are additional parts with the ending maybe to give justice the female lead's character sa female lead but I was hoping that there is depth in her childhood past as to why her actions are like that when she became an adult. The 'neighborhood' couple was a bit disappointing for me here comparing with the Japanese version since I really like the Japanese version. The part of the investigator's family which was not seen in the Japanese is one of the most likeable additions for me in the whole drama, I did feel the thrill as a watcher. I find the drama confusing though, because of the pacing, but I did understand how it goes because I have watched the Japanese one.
