This is a short tiktok drama in vertical mobile phone format (probably filmed with a phone) and for what it is it is excellent. They managed to fit an entire drama in 12min: cohabitation, friends to lovers, a girl, jelousy, misunderstandings, cute moments, longing glances and it is better than the majority of thai bls. I was particularly surprised by music: there are no generic piano and guitar tunes but violins and songs. The actors are so cute. I have a well developped cringe radar but there was not much of it here. Another good surprise...

So cute, I am loving it...why such low rating? Too slow? My kind of drama!

That's just the way they see us.... et ce gars est un très mauvais acteur en plus! Beau mais mauvais!

These voting lists ofcyours are a great idea but they seem to be very similar not to say practicalĺy identical: the dramas I love are hated by others and vice versa.....lol

I liked your article but I did not find the answer to the question: How to enjoy historical/period dramas? I only managed to finish 4 (out of over 300 dramas I've seen so far) and 3 of which starred Lee Jung Gi my favourite actor so I did make particular effort, but every other, in spite of rave reviews and comments, I dropped after 30min... And I love history and historical fiction in general, but the asian period dramas just do not click with me! I cannot figure out why but I hoped your article would help me: unfortunately no such luck! I loved your explanation of presentism, which is very much present in current attitudes in real life (wokeism etc.. but that's another story)

Short, sweet and really good! As good as the best pinoy quarantine dramas.... Give more roles to Aaron Lai, please!

She is not nice but the actress playing her is even worse: she can't act to save her life!!!!

NO, definitely not! This drama does not need a love story, it is complicated enough as it is!

This list is a misnomer: should have been dramas that do not get as much hate as they should! Acording to their ratings, the top 10 dramas are very much loved not hated....I hate all 10 of them but I seem to be an exception! 😕

Cute, short and surprisingly well produced; far better than some of more hyped bls. Here is the link to the production company's you tube playlist of this drama. You'll find the sequel on the same channel!

Back to the future article?!? Will be published next week but already available?!?
BTW: I love this actor who stole the show in every drama he was in! Great future awaits him! Beside being swoonworthy and charismatic his acting skills are top notch! WOW!

Dexter is based on a series of books by an american writer; Jeff Lindsey! This is a subpar drama in comparison with early seasons of Dexter .

So the thai version is better the the korean one?!? I dropped the korean drama after two episodes: the FL was terrible and the promised romance unconvincing and unnecessary. I am dropping the thai drama after 15min: what kind of police barges into a crime scene and touches everything without gloves?!? I loved the synopsis but the execution is awful....maybe it gets better later if I suspend my belief enough and keep a blind eye on unbelievable stuff?

Jeana, I love you! I so agree with you! Overhyped dramas are so NO NO for me because I am usually so disappointed so whenever I see one I usually take a wide berth or if i end up giving it a chance, I drop it quickly. It happened with every single drama in your article. One is missing though, in my humble opinion: Vincenzo. And Hot Stove League, in spite of its uncomprehensible title, is definitely THE BEST drama I have ever seen! Thank You so much!!!!

Two are missing; the cat from Be Loved In House: I Do and the little girl from She Would Never Know. And I just remembered the horse from Wok Of Love!

Most of the Kdramas on this list are just overrated and overhyped (Vincenzo, Goblin) not overhated (like Something In The Rain is!). I guess people misunderstand the concept of overhated: not bad dramas but not hugely popular or understood therefore hated.

Great article but misleading: they are only chinese novels it seems to me but China is not the only literate country in Asia! Or is it in your eyes?

Cute story but I felt like I was reading a japanese yaoi manga: the difference in hight is really disconcerting...

What? A saeguk about a hickey?!? Or did I miss something more profound?

This is one of my favourite dramas and I agree with you wholeheartedly. Such a hidden gem, an underrated feel good drama....a must watch if you need something nice and uplifting!
