2022 Completed List

first offical drama of '22. gotta say, it was pretty disappointing. i love the mc actors in different dramas, but this one was really boring and hard to get into. 

ive wanted to watch this for years, and finally did. it was... okay. lol. a melodrama, and an old one at that. i feel like the younger me wouldve loved this. but me now, it was okay. i liked the first half, and then got bored and just wanted the stupid drama to end. 

UMMM. what was this? lol. ridiculous. i remember dropping this or just putting it on hold because i was distracted or wanted to watch something else, but i rly liked it. and then i rewatch it, and find it rly boring for one, like wth, lol. and two, i waited these years for THAT ending? wtf. the writers were effed up. seeing him carry her around like a dead body, it was creepy af. and then he off and kills them both, just... done. horrible series lol

watched this years ago and loved it but idky i stopped watching it, esp close to the ending. so i rewatched, because i forgot alot lol. and awww, it was so sweet. towards the middle it got a little... wtf-ish lol. but it went back and regained its charm and humor, so the watch was okay.

i've had a really hard time recently and needed to go back to my new favourite dramas that i know i love. my mister <3. even though it's only been a few months, i still adore this drama.

just like my mister, i rewatched this one. and i honestly don't regret it. i loved these dramas so much, they're so beautiful and heartwarming. i wish there was something similar to this, i just can't find it. 

i rewatched this, felt like this might have a similar vibe to cloy, which it kinda did. i can't believe how much i forgot about this drama lol. ik it's been like 6 years, but still, wow. anyways, a wonderful watch like last time. i got a little more bored near the end when they all went to korea, but then the big thing happened, and it went by faster. it was a nice refresher,  and fun watch.

this seemed a little pointless, but i still watched it so meh.

this was a little pointless too for me, although it was kinda fun to see behind the scenes.

im really disappointed in this or myself. idk, i just really wanted to love it because i can tell they all had amazing chemistry... but i couldn't focus and i just didn't like it. im not sure if i like mafia gang dramas, because that plot was incredibly boring to me. i did love the romance but there was barely any.

another drama i did not like. i was very surprised, considering that it had high ratings. honestly, reminded me of vincenzo with the "street gangs". so far, not getting any good dramas i guess. idk, it just bored me. it was too lovey dovey with the romance, as well. 

what an amazing and beautiful... and heartbreaking movie. it was perfect in every way. i loved the leads chemistry, and the whole feeling of the movie. honestly, for a while there i forgot the actor could even talk, what an amazing performance. also a duo i never thought i was missing out on until after watching this movie. the ending was incredibly heartbreaking, idk if i'll recover from that. i don't mean to follow all of song joong ki's works, but lately it seems like i am. i'll be honest, vincenzo was a follow, but this movie was because i saw a beautiful clip in a mv! idk what that means. anyways this movie... 10/10, no question. definitely recommend this!

i was wondering about this movie for quite a while, so i randomly saw it and tried to watch it. it was... boring lol. wouldn't recommend it.

i didn't have much hope since this was an older movie, but ti was pretty good. the younger me would've given this a 10 im quite positive. it was really good, mostly half way to the end.  i would recommend this for a fun watch.  and the ending was the sweetest thing ever i really loved it. <3.

this wasn't bad, just very meh. bittersweet ending, but i wouldn't rec this.

i barely know what happened in this movie, it was really boring and hard to pay attention to. do not rec this

this was weird. out of no where they give us a plot of where he "died" and had this whole angst plot. which i am a fan of though, definitely, but it was just really weird. but until the ending, i didn't understand that this was a prequel from the first sassy girl movie. and once i found that out, i thought it was beautiful. my rating rose from a 1 to a 5 really fast. because of that, i would rec this for people who loved the first sassy girl movie, definitely.

i loved the manga before this when i was younger. the movie... was a little weird in comparison. but i loved the music, and the way they directed certain scenes and the way they captured them. it was definitely unique and beautiful

this was incredibly boring to me lol. i loved the beginning when they were children before the brother died. but idk, im not sure if i was a fan of the lead actress because it was so boring and i didn't enjoy any of the scenes with her, despite her being the main lead. because of that this drama felt like torture..so glad it's over.

i really wanted to watch this because i loved the main leads in goblin. but this series... was mostly boring lol. i just couldn't really get into it lol. i liked the crime aspect, but meh this drama really just wasn't for me.

i saw a mv of this movie and fell in love instantly. then i watched the movie and loved it just the same. beautiful movie, 10/10!

this was the most beautiful movie i've watched. it was amazing, and i almost passed on it because of the weird plot. but it was beautiful... the actors, their voices, the story development... im in love with the male lead's voice, so mesmerizing.  the hardship and pain felt so real, it was so heartbreaking to watch. and the ml and fl's dynamic was so beautiful. it was so sweet and loving, and innocent. it was just so beautiful. i loved how much he got excited about history and how she loved to watch him be a kid again whenever it was about history.  and how she acted completely different with him, it was so beautiful. i loved all the actors, they did a wonderful job, i won't forget this masterpiece <3.

you know, i was thinking what this kind of reminded me of, like the feeling of it. kinda like my mister. the ml has so many vibes like his character. rio herself is completely different from ji an, but i get such vibes from that series to this movie <3.

i was curious about this, esp considering i loved the ml in my rainy days, and cuz i love hana yori dango jdrama so much. this movie... was weird lol. it felt like i was watching a parody. the editing and the overtop acting was ridiculous, i couldn't take it seriously lol. not a fan unfortunately.

this was such a sweet short movie. i feel like it was too short for me to really get attached to the storyline and the characters, but it was a nice little watch. i'd definitely recommend this. the ending was also really cute, aww <3. definitely bumped my rating up to an 8 <3.

this movie was a strange one. the ending was really sad. idk, i loved the nature aspect and the daisies, but i don't think i really cared for this story.

i wasn't sure if i'd like this. the ml was from a different drama and i hated him in that one, but this was a really good watch. i couldn't keep my eyes off of the screen. the cinematography was beautiful. it was also a lovely story. i would definitely recommend this. and her friend! what an amazing actress, i really loved her acting! 

i finally worked up to watch this. i didn't really want to for a long time because i've seen the jdrama. sad af. this was really sad too. it was a beautiful story. poor aya. it seriously breaks my heart everytime i think of her. i did prefer the jdrama more, which is why my rating is lower.

i used to love marmalade boy, the anime series, so when i saw there was a jmovie, i was excited. unfortunately this was really bad lol. i feel like there was like no emotions, and they skipped big plots with descriptive dialogue, if that at all. i would not recommend this.

the ratings were good, and it was a human movie, about love and living with an illness. i personally couldn't get into it, and had a very hard time focusing, so unfortunately my rating is a 1

i've been meaning to watch this for years. i read the manga  a few years ago, and honestly took me 2 attempts because i never read it long enough to get into the main storyline, but it was beautiful and heartbreaking. this movie is no different. i feel like because it was a movie, they ad to skip a lot of unimportant things and it almost felt like things were thrown in your face outta no where because you don't know how they got to that point. but despite that, it was a beautiful adaption. i really did love this. i hope to eventually watch the series drama as well!

i couldn't really get into this. i mean it was pretty sweet, but idk lol. but the ending! that book o memories sketch. i loved it so much <3.

this movie was definitely something else. i was very confused and bored throughout the duration of the film. it was really weird. he fell in love with a girl that had a doppelganger and then fell for her too? kind of cruel for that girl. but i did love the memories of him in jr high with her, that's something i'd love to keep watching. i wasn't really a fan of most of the story, unforunately.

when it first started, i really enjoyed it. and idk, lots of random drama made it more boring to me, so i stopped enjoying it.

i really loved this movie. it was so beautiful and innocent. i couldn't keep my eyes off the movie. <3.

i just recently discovered this is a japanese movie adaption. i also had another surprise it was first a live action and then an anime adaption. i saw the anime movie, and i liked it... sort of. it was weird. this was weird as well but i think i preferred this over the anime version. i loved all the actors, they did an amazing job bringing this story to life <3.

i used to be in love with the manga... until i finished it. because i was completely rooting for shisio and chunchun. unfortunately, it didn't end up like that so this series and movie gives me lots of frustration despite really liking the story. so on to the movie adaption... they did a really great job. i loved all the acting and the characters. i just wish they had changed the ending x-x. i would recommend this anyone... who is on the right side of the shipping lol.

i wasn't sure about this despite loving yamapi. but i was wrong! i did really like this. it was really good. omg the kiss in the speaker's podium? sa-woooon. it was a really good movie, not a 10, but regardless, really good. i would rec this to others who love teacher-student romances <3.

this was incredibly boring and i could not focus. too kiddish for me i suppose. i don't recommend.

this was incredibly beautiful and sweet. i didn't expect much as it was around 5 minutes long each episode, but they were short and sweet and magical. i loved the music so much, and the ml's acting were amazing, with such chemistry <3.  the theme song is my new favourite. and i just loved that first episode, the opening and the meeting of the two was beautiful. i just loved this so much. <3.

the ratings were really high, so i expected... idk what i expected. i mean its hard to really believe the 10 ratings, just because everyone's opinions are different. mine was different. it was... pretty good. not amazing. most of the time i felt annoyed with the fl. idk, the things she says most of the time is what she ends up not doing. she really can't follow through. the chemistry between the leads were really good though. i definitely like the pre-skip rather than the post-skip.  the music was really beautiful too. i think that's the best part about getting back into jdramas, the music is always so beautiful and sweet. i really love it.

i was really hopeful, but unfortunately i lost interest after episode 2-3. so this watch was very painful and agonizing. i just wanted it to end lol. i felt like the leads were so immature, and their choices were really stupid. i didn't agree with a lot of things they did. and that stupid ex fiance was disgusting... honestly, what kind of character is that. i rly did not enjoy this drama. 

i thought this would be boring, but it was so cute and i loved to see their commentary on the scenes happening. it was adorable, also a nice refresher since i am missing this drama desperately these days!

this was so incredible. so amazing all these scenes! i feel like we were robbed of amazing moments in the drama. i thought they were deleted scenes, but then i heard they might've been extra scenes because everyone loved this drama so much. if so, thank you! because they were amazing <3. sa-woooon.

nothing really noteable about this expect a nice refresher <3.

i saw an mv about this drama and it made me fall in love instantly. this drama was as amazing as i hoped. it was so good. it reeled you in and once it did it was impossible to look away. amazing acting, storyline, music, fighting scenes. it was all so epic. the ending wasn't what i hoped tbh.i wanted them to kill each other, and maybe have him say something like how much he cares about her. i dont think ill ever forget how he got a house on the beach and a ticket for her to just live her dream. that was so special. ik he's the villain, but i srsly loved him. her bf? maybe i should call him that, his death was a little ridiculous. my envision was that she'd go and kill herself and n the villain and her bf would be left alive. so this kinda ending had me a surprised and not rly enjoying it tbh. but despite it, i loved this drama so much! easily on my favourites list. <3.

so i saw a mv of this -yes, another mv- and it looked really good. honestly, the mv did not prepare me for this drama. At all. i thought it was just a simple love story with some obstacles in the way. but this drama was completely different. it was so heart breaking, especially since tragic circumstances like this happened, those poor people. it was an amazing story, and it just breaks your heart to watch this. i really loved this watch. all of the actors portrayed their roles so amazingly. and im finding lately im a sucker for this dialect lol. i'd rec this watch for anyone! how can i not when i was able to reunite with my favorite actor through this drama! i got so excited when i saw kim won hae. god, his acting is always phenomenal. i knew as soon as i saw him though, he'd have a tragic story. </3. i srsly love him, it made this story 100x better.

i've heard about this movie for years and how was it was amazing. and it truly was. honestly, im not surprised as anything gong yoo is in i effing love. what an amazing actor. but it wasn't even just him that made this movie so amazing. it was all the actors, and the incredible plot. i loved this so much. definitely worth the watch.

so unfortunate. i tried to watch it despite the bad reviews but turns out yes they were right. this was utter crap lol. a 1.0 for me.

this was really good. not my type of plot tbh, but it was a beautiful watch. i was really excited to see how gong yoo and jung you mi reunited in this movie after train to busan. it was nice to see them in a role of a wife and husband. such amazing acting in this movie. it was really beautiful. it's hard for me, as i can't really relate, but it really did touch me.

what a beautiful drama. i've been wanting to watch this for quite a while, since my favourite actress is in it, and she's amazing in everything. from the beginning until the end, i couldn't keep my eyes off it. it was a beautiful story. the music and sceneries and the acting <3. i thought it was going to be more depressing and tragic than it was due to mvs (ofc, right), and was so surprised it had comedy in it. and i fell in love with kim myung soo's acting. people have been saying he's just some idol actor, but i swear, he was amazing. i loved his acting! the chemistry between the leads was amazing. and i rly loved the ballet aspect, i never watch dramas with that. and i've never watched a drama with angels before, only shinigami, so it was a nice change. i really loved that. i can go on and on about everything i loved about this drama <3.

i watched this because of shin hye sun, my favourite kdrama actress these days. its so amazing to see how she can act like a completely different person in all her dramas, i love it. this drama... was so amazing. i should've watched this years ago. it was beautiful, heartbreaking, giddy, and just so amazing. my new favourite drama of the year so far. 1000/10. i loved all the characters, they were so perfect. the whole family dynamic. and i loved the ml lead. ive never seen him in anything, but now im a fan. every time he cried, it tore me up inside. what an amazing actor. the chemistry in this drama was also insane <3. what perfect actors to choose for this drama. completely and wholely recommend this to anyone.

i remember watching this a few years ago when it came out. there was so much negativity about it, and it really turned me off. so i stopped watching it. and the story itself was quite messed up. anyway, i rewatched this and i remembered all the cute and funny moments. it was still a little messed up, the way they decided to tell the story and just parts of the dramatic story they created... but it was a good watch. too long though... they couldve ended this drama on episode 13 the latest, but it just dragged on and on until 3 more additional episodes and i found that ruined this series. by episode 15 i was so done with  this drama, it was hard to keep going. i probably wouldn't rec this to anyone cuz it wasn't that great, i mean it was a gd watch, but mostly, was just ridiculous with the main storyline. 

just watched this on a whim and it was really good. i loved the time travel aspect, and how it was about saving a woman they loved. it was so incredibly beautiful, and they almost tricked me with the ending. i was so so relieved his friend went back for him and saved his life, and then thy got to reunite <3.  it was such a beautiful movie.

i was really excited for this drama. it seemed really interesting with the natural disaster element, which i usually love to watch. but idk. at the beginning i was into it, it was really good. but then politics and greedy doctors, and money, and all that stuff came involved and it started to get boring, because i'm not a fan of that. wasn't even a small plot of it, but the main plot of the series. it was ridiculous and stupid and it made me not like this drama anymore. if you like disaster dramas, i would rec this but i would be wary of the politics involved, as it ruined this series for me. i do want to mention, though, i really did like the ending.  i liked how everything was finally resolved, and loved how they were back together and working <3.

i really liked this drama, especially at the start. i've never watched a historical drama with fantasy in this kind of way, and i really loved it. felt like i was watching an anime lol. and their love story was so beautiful, i just loved it. they had really good chemistry too, i was constantly gaga over them lol. it was so weird though, to see ahn hyo seop in this role. i think it was because of the red eyes, cuz it almost seemed like a completely different person. he did amazing in this role, i loved him so much <3.  i think im now officially a fan of him lol. another thing i loved about this drama was how they worded things... it was so beautiful. "I missed you like the stars miss the sun". sa-wooon. i love how beautiful they used to say things, it just makes the words mean a thousand times more meaningful and heartfelt. i know i rated this only 5.0 despite my gushing comments, but i have reasons. it was beautiful, yes, but around episode 10 i was ready for it to start wrapping up, so it felt very draggy. i just feel like this kind of drama wouldve done better with a 12 episode count instead of 16. regardless, it was a beautiful and unforgettable watch <3.

i decided to watch this because of ahn hyo seop, i heard his love story was really good so i went for it. it was... a little difficult for me to get into this drama, im not gonna lie lol. i never watch family dramas, so that was the big factor. a lot of known actors in this drama, though, which was nice to see. so about his romance plot, i loved it! honestly for the first 20 episodes it was the highlight to the series for me lol. i didn't really care for the main couple, so it made it hard. but then they got together, and things got much easier. and thats when i fell in love with the true romance plot! the forbidden romance <3. i loved the fake siblings plot. not just because of the forbidden romance, but jesus, they had amazing chemistry. his brooding love sick and angst for being in love with her, oh it broke my heart, but it was so beautiful and i couldn't look away. now that is an actor. definitely gonna check out his other work, that's for sure. i think im a sucker for mls who are in a one sided love for the fls. i feel like most dramas show the fl lead falling in love in love first, and its hard to find a good drama where you can see the mls turmoil and heartache, i just love it lol. my rating is a little weird. when i started this drama, i was so sure id rate it as 10, but then it quickly turned into a 1. because of the family drama aspect, i was bored. but then slowly it rose to a 5 and now its an 8 cuz i did really love it. i would rec this for someone, esp if they like family dramas and multiple couples.

i was really excited for this because i love the ml, and i thought this would be similar to his role in my mister, which is what made me love him to begin with. unfortunately,  i couldn't love this. it was weird comedy and i just didnt like the flow and how things were being portrayed. i found it hilarious they had to put that "im going to reveal your wife" plot just to make it more interesting, because yes it was pretty intense there, but i still don't think i'd be missing anything if i hadnt watched this series. 

i was actually kind of interested for this movie, i thought it'd be neat to watch something with horses. but unforunately, i was very bored and barely paid attention to it, and didn't realize it was almost over until i focused on it and heard yelling. it was really hard for me to pay attention lol. this is a no for me.

this movie was really different. where a boxer tries to return to his sport when he has alzheimer's. it was really interesting. i loved his personality, it was so goofy and awkward and cute. it was a really nice slice of life kind of movie. 

this was really different, short and sweet. it had an indie feel to it. i think i heard somewhere it was a commercial, but if it was, it sure was a long commercial lol. i really loved the aspect of using live streams, it made it so realistic of what is going on these days, and the ending where they're about to reunite <3. so adorable. i really loved that. just wish it showed more of them actually reuniting! but still super sweet.

this was really sweet, i liked the indie feel, and the different timelines intertwining. also loved the ml and fl <3, such amazing actors. i came into this movie thinking it would be like time travel through the radio, similar to ii mare, so that made it a little disappointing, but it was still a cute watch and i'd rec this to anyone who's looking for a slice of life kind of movie.

i picked this up because i heard of so many people watching this, n it was such a breath of fresh air. the beginning was so perfect, had amazing chemistry, and i just loved the overall tone and feeling of the drama. just so sweet and innocent. it was beautiful. around the time where he went home i started to lose interest though, but it was still good. everyone despised the whole cancer storyline, n i get it. it doesn't make sense. like there was no small little signs it was gonna happen, no weird irony or foreshadowing, at least none that i noticed. so because of that, it felt like it just came outta the blew. i did love that we found out he was the reason she went to that town, it was so perfect <3. n it made more sense as to why he wanted to take care of her to that degree, paying for everything n etc. 

it was  weird how he left n kept contact with her as he is recovering from cancer n trying to effing survive.  n then they pulled the "death card" when he wasn't even dead??? n then he suddenly showed up 5 years later lol just as i write this, i can't help but think it was a stupid joke or parody, it just doesn't make sense. as he shows up and its all ok cuz he was just making sure he was all better. 

overall the drama was good, but to rec it i feel like i'd hate someone to do that. so i'd def have to tell them some kind of tip for the ending before that or it'd be downright mean lol. for example, what the writer did to us. it certainly doesnt mean i didnt like the drama, though, cuz i did. i feel like i wouldve loved this drama if they didnt spur us with this cancer plot point, if we came into this drama or even half way knowing about his cancer or a chance he was sick, we def would've enjoyed this better. n the ending... i mean even if they went that route, if they didnt lie to the girl and say that he's dead and show up 5 years later, barely an explanation, it would've been an ok ending. it didnt make sense! lol. oh well.

i was excited for this one because of all the cast members, but tbh, it was really hard to get into. it did have a 'the office' vibe but i still didnt like it. iu saved this drama for me lol. honestly, i love her in anything i watch. when she was on screen i really enjoyed this drama, but when she was gone, i got bored again. she's just such an amazing actress. im glad it only 13 episodes, but maybe cuz of that they made it 1 hr and almost half hour episodes, so it did seem longer. i wouldnt rewatch this again unfortunately lol. to rec it, idk, maybe others would like it. just wasnt for me.

p.s. i do gotta say though, that the two older main leads had good chemistry, other than cindy, i really loved those two bickering and realizing they loved each other. <3.

i honestly wasn't sure about this drama. it had high reviews but the plot wasn't my kind of drama, and i guess i was right lol. i mostly didn't like this. iu saved this drama for me yet again - i always can count on her. although, suzy was in this too! which was great, cuz i love her too. but not as much as iu lol. this drama is an older one, and thats why it was so weird to see all these famous actors now so young. it was so weird like seeing a picture of them from high school. i did love iu and her love interest <3. so adorable. i could watch a drama with just them, so adorable!

i was expecting a lot from this drama, because ive seen lots of recs due to the romance. but i hated it lol. it was so boring. i prefered the first season, and all the relationships and characters. i felt like i couldn't get attached to any of the leads, and i was just so done with this drama from the get go to the ending. i wouldn't rec this.

this was always recommended, in almost every forum ive seen, i s2g lol.and so i really overated it in my head, n was like, no way am i going to hate this. i just assumed it was going to be a 10. n whenever i think that, and i finally watch it, im completely proven wrong. but this time, nope! this WAS  a 10. this was adorable from start to finish. i loved this to pieces.

their chemistry, the cute dynamics, the comedy. i loved how they were childhood friends n how they were so protective over each other. the only downside of this series was secondary couple. i never grew attached, n didn't care for it. but the main couple <3. beautiful.  its funny though cuz every time the ml went on screen, i just felt like he was acting in a way that gong yoo acts, even the way he talked. n i never got that from different series he's been in, so this was really strange.  no hate against this actor or anything, i love  park seo joon, he's amazing in everything i watch with him - except dh, i dont even wanna think about it. it wasn't him, just a horrible drama x_x- n this definitely solidified my love for him. i haven't watched him in anything in years, so this gave me a chance to fall in love with him again <3. also the fl! i watched her in descendants of the sun, n its so weird to see her here in a completely different character and personality. shes an amazing actress too! definitely a fan now <3. 

also the landlord is bloody hilarious. i love her. she's just so random n just watches them with her side commentary, n idk, i just love it. so funny <3.  n when i found out she was her mother, i loved her more <3. i knew she had to be someone important 

also one thing that really made me love this drama is that it reminds me  of in time with you. not just cuz the childhood friends n realizing they're in love, but even the fl, the way she says things is full of confidence and so strong willed. i love to see it so much <3.

i really loved this. it was a nice slice of life, sweet, and beautiful. it reminded me a lot of a movie i watched where two strangers end up traveling together for a common goal. the leads had such great chemistry, everything about this was perfect and i'd rec this to anyone!

this was really good! i really loved this. i was so into it until episode 13. those episodes were amazing. full of laughter, cuteness, and beautiful romance. i just loved it all. it made me realize why everyone recommended this series! and their chemistry was off the charts <3. i really loved them. and i srsly love the ml in this type of role. i feel like he was made for being in roles where hes a trainer or a boxer or something, it just really suits him! 

now episode 13-14, what was that? lol. honestly, i personally think it was just to use up episodes, cuz most things were resolved. it was pretty stupid esp cuz he got better pretty fast, so it felt like they were trying to fill up time with some truck of doom episode. its like dol dol so so la da or whatever lmao all over again. at least with this drama they didnt eff things up like that drama, and reunited them pretty fast so there was that. but honestly it was really unnecessary so thats why my rating went down to a 9. definitely would rec this though!

ive wanted to watch this for a few years but postponed it a lot. now that i've finally watched it, i regret it lol. it was horrible. incredibly boring and i felt like the leads had no chemistry. i was incredibly bored the entire time. but i do have to add the best episode was the last epi. if all the epis were that good, this would've been an amazing watch. but unfortunately it wasn't like that, so i wouldn't rec this for anyone.

this was really boring, i couldn't really focus. nothing much to say about this, as i really couldn't get into the movie.

i wanted to love this so much, i watched mvs of this drama before watching and i knew it was going to be good. the beginning was amazing. it was funny, and full of romance and action, and i loved it. and omg the fl even though this is her first main role she was amazing, i could feel her despair and fear, she's one of my new favourite actresses now lol. and her chemistry with the ml was amazing, i loved watching any scene with these two. that's why i was so disappointed with this drama. i loved the acting, and the romance, and beautiful music, but after like around episode 8 i began to lose interest. too much politics involved, and barely any romance. i just really was not a fan. honestly when i saw the mvs, i thought he was kidnapping her and brining her to north korea or something lmao. so that was another disappointment there, not the dramas fault, just my own speculation. i feel like making this drama just about them being held captive in the boarding school is what ruined it. the drama lost a lot of the excitement due to that, and it just got boring. unfortunately, despite how much i wanted to love this, i couldn't. but i did love the beginning. that alone, with the acting, chemistry, music gives it 5.5 stars in my book <3.

what a beautiful series, from beginning to end <3. i tried watching this years ago and i loved it but i got distracted with something and put it on hold. and then i couldn't figure out the name of the drama until a god sent from heaven in the forums helped me figure the drama's name. it was so beautiful... the way they captured the scenes... i loved how they captured it like a photo and just had inner thoughts talking over the photo, it was such a beautiful way to capture the whole scene and just what they wanted to convey. i loved that style and i wish you could see it more in other dramas. the music was beautiful too, and it suited the mood of the drama. the story was amazing too, it was just a nice sweet story and when they had to, the heartbreak was painstaking, i really loved it. but the pacing... they did the pacing so well done, normally dramas struggle with the pacing, but this drama excelled at it, and just took their time and didn't rush anything. the chemistry.... it was amazing. the fl had chemistry with both of the male leads, i s2g lol. but it might be because i kinda have a soft spot for the second male lead, his smile could light up a room, jesus <3. but the main ml and her had amazing chemistry, i just loved the way he talked, his deep voice, and i just loved the way they interacted with one another, it felt so... real. so comfortable, like they've been doing it forever. it's a reason why their friendship reminded me of intimewithyou, best friends to lover concept, but even though in this drama they were apart for many years, it felt like they had that big solid bond, and i just loved it. i could rewatch this drama again, it was just so beautiful <3. 10/10!

this was horrible. i can't believe how bad it was. the first episode was okay, and it felt like i was watching one of those indie 90s movies, and then by the next episode i was done. this lasted until the end. this drama felt like it was shameless and selfish, i didn't feel any real feelings, it was just so horrible to even watch. i hated all the characters. actually, the ml who ended up cheating first seemed to care the most, which is odd if you think about it. i would never rec this to anyone. inr 3 definitely surpassed this drama in storyline, dialogue, music, and production. what a shame.

finally finished the trilogy of this series. the 2nd was much better than the first season, but didnt come remotely close to the 3rd. i only started to like it when it began to show how much he cared and how jealous he got. at the beginning she was just so clingy and immature that it was annoying. i love seeing the mls get jealous, its definitely my favourite thing to see in a drama, that and them brooding in their one sided love.  it took me until like episode 10 or 11 before i liked it, so yes, this drama sucked lol. i wasn't a big fan of it.i did love the ml, but that's it. oh, but i also loved the second ml in other works, so i was excited to see him in this. its just i hated the plot and the way things were going in the drama so i couldn't like him in this, no offense to him, hes an amazing actor, and i loved his second male lead's sweetness. oh my heart, poor guy.  i gave this drama a 2 only for those scenes i liked, but i would never rec this to anyone, it was mostly ridiculous, especially their intense fights. if im completely honest, they probably weren't right for each other, but im glad the ml finally was honest and happy in the end. 

what a beautiful and amazing series. i remember when it was airing, i'd see lots of posts of tumblr and it looked really good. i finally ended up watching it and jesus, i did not expect such an amazing drama. a complete 10 and beyond. the storyline, the acting, the music, the scenery, and the chemistry with all the actors, it was just amazing.  each episode i couldn't rip my eyes from the screen, i was smiling, laughing, shocked, and crying - it was whirlpool of emotions. i would recommend this to anyone, to everyone, really. i loved their little family, and the closeness of it all so when it ended, it was heartbreaking. when dramas have those close friends or acquaintances that end up having a bond like that, it's my weakness. i just love to see it. i can't even explain the feelings i had for this drama, it's so difficult because i loved everything about it. this is the best drama i've watched this year so far that isn't a rewatch. <3. 

so ive wanted to watch this for a long time but kept getting distracted with other dramas, and finally decided to watch it. i can't believe it's been on my ptw list for 10 years x_x. that's nuts lol. the drama itself was... okay. not good enough to wait 10 years thats for sure lol. it was really heartbreaking and sad because of her illness. i really didn't like how the flow of things went in this drama, and the way they told the story. it was just really strange. i felt like i was starting the drama where things were already complicated - the affair already happening, the wedding stalling... idk it all seemed like something that would've happened in the the middle of the series, after their "affair", so for it start like that... it felt really weird and i didn't like it. i felt like i couldn't really connect to them as a couple because of it. idk if it was a chemistry thing or just because of the way they told the story. anyway! this watch was okay, but i wouldn't rewatch it and idk if i'd rec this to anyone, maybe only if they were interested in specific dramas of illnesses. but i guess i wasn't a huge fan of this drama. 

one thing i wanted to add was how it was a nice surprise for her in laws to not be horrible people and actually treat her with kindness and respect, that is one thing they did right. it was really nice to see.

i really enjoyed this drama. im not surprised since lee jong suk is the ml in it, and i absolutely him in anything he acts in, and this was no different. ive seen a lot of negative reviews about this drama and i dont know why. it's been really good since the start. the pacing reminded of i need romance 3, they just took their time to follow the storyline, and it wasn't in a draggy way but it felt like perfection. i wasn't sure about the fl, i swear the drama cover photo didn't do her justice, she looks so different in the drama imo, and i loved her acting. i also loved the way she talked, so soft spoken and the way she says things its like shes talking about poetry, just the flow of it. i just loved her delivery <3. i also loved all the relationships in this drama, like the friendships with the coworkers, it was just so nice to see. you don't usually see such happy friendships, and i love that, it was a breath of fresh air, that's for sure. another thing it reminded me of was fight for my way. they were childhood friends that stayed close and suddenly one day things start to change, and definitely matched this vibe. they had that bonding feeling when you looked at them that makes it feel like theres been a long history. anyway, i loved that aspect too. 10/10 for me <3.

i've been meaning to watch this drama for years and finally ended up completing it. i feel like the past me would've loved it, when i was still a teenager and loved these old melodramatic type of dramas. i could tell it was a good drama, but i just wasn't a big fan of it. it just felt dramatic lol. i couldn't really connect to any of the characters, and i didn't feel anything for the romance storyline; idk if it was the lack of chemistry or just what they did with the storyline, but i didn't feel like they really loved each other. it was interesting to see all the known actors these days in this drama, i lost count of how many i saw and because of that i did enjoy it more. idk if i'd rec this, maybe if the person was actually looking for this type of drama then i would, but for me it wasn't anything special. 

i had mixed feelings about this drama, but i really loved the lead actors so i went for it. it was... an okay drama. it wasn't anything special, and idk if they had the best chemistry together. they were cute and sweet at times, but idk, i couldn't feel that sa-wooon from them. the drama itself was pretty boring, i hated the sexual harassment that the women had to deal in their workplace, i didn't realize this drama had that plot point until i was watching it, i really don't like seeing that. i know its a regular thing, but its so twisted, and as a woman, i hate to see it lol. i felt like there wasn't much about this drama, they got together really fast which was surprising, and then mostly hid their relationship for the entire drama, which i don't understand, it's not like he was a stranger. i feel like it was a big betrayal, and pretty stupid of them to hide it. i mean maybe at the beginning until they were confident in what they were doing, it would make sense. but it got serious and then they still tried to hide it, which i didn't agree with. so overall, i think it was a sweet and cute little watch, but through a lot of it i was  either bored to death, or i didn't agree with the plot points and what the characters did. i wouldn't rewatch it, i guess i'd recommend it for someone who likes slice of life, it was just not the type of slice of life i enjoyed.

so a while ago i watched k2 and a lot of people said yong pal is really like a prequel, which i can see. it has the same kind of atmosphere and tone, as well a similar storyline. the drama started to really good, even the opening sequence was really intriguing. and i loved all the twists and turns at the end of each episode. the romance seemed a little odd, after going through the whole rescue mission for her, i get they'd have a bond, but a bond where the episode ends with him kissing her? i thought it was a weird progress. i just didn't feel like they were in that spot yet, so it was really odd for me. if i compare this drama to k2, i loved k2 so much more - the romance and the relationships were so much easier to connect to. in this drama, other than the ml and fl there wasn't any side characters i was too keen on, so this watch wasn't that fun in that regard. but the plot points were really interesting so i'll give it a 5. oh i was a little sad though, one of my favourite actors was in this drama but as the villain! i love him, and he's always the good guy, so it was so weird to "not like him" because i love that actor so much. regardless he did an amazing job at acting as always.

i heard a lot of good things about this drama, and everyone seemed to be watching it. maybe it's because it was a 2021 drama, so it was pretty recent, because the actual drama was pretty boring. i really loved the first episode, it was really good, and the plot seemed really interesting - i love fantasy plots these days where one main lead is a mystical creature or immortal, it's really interesting, so i thought this one where he was essentially "doom" it would be a good watch. i mean, it wasn't a bad watch, just got boring pretty fast. felt like a pointless watch, esp cuz i couldn't get attached to any of the characters, so that definitely made it harder to like. idk i'd rec this, but i def wouldn't rewatch it.

i was really excited to watch this but it was a torture to watch. i was incredibly bored the entire time and i haven't wanted to drop a drama this badly in a long time. the entire drama felt pointless and just felt like a waste of time. i know there was hype about this drama, and i do love a good bromance, but this wasn't it. maybe it just wasnt my type, and the fact the episodes like the length of a movie that it made this so unbearable. im so glad to be done with this.

what an amazing series. i was glued to the screen from first episode until it  ended. it was so good. im mad at myself for not watching this years ago tbh lol. i really love song joong ki's acting, he can really display such a wide range of emotions, i could really feel his turmoil and pain, and then his smile would come out and it's just so weird, idk. i just loved it. and i loveddd how his hair was down most of the series like in a werewolf boy because he's so handsome like that <3. the fl was amazing as well, i watched her in only shining inheritance and didn't care for her then, but as the lead she was amazing in this drama. they both ha such amazing chemistry, i couldn't look away when they were on screen together, i really loved them. i also loved his friend and his sister, with those two it made all four of them the cutest family, im a sucker for those tropes - not related family bonding. and they had the cutest chemistry and relationship, i definitely shipped them! i would recommend this series to anyone, it was amazing, a complete 10! if i had any negative things to say about this is the amnesia plot lol. i love a good amnesia, but idk, in this series it was a little weird. getting her to try and kill them both and her ending up with amnesia and then later him as well? a little overused and the approach wasn't the best, i've definitely seen better, but it was still an amazing drama. 

i wasn't sure about this because there was a lot of mixed reviews and comments stating it's good and others saying it's boring. i'm so glad i watched it anyways, because this series is one of my favourite historical love story as of now. it's so beautiful, the way they depict things, the sceneries, the music, and the chemistry with all of the cast members, especially the main lead. oh, so beautiful and breathtaking. honestly, the main ml i wasn't a big fan of since his work in reply 1988, i don't think it was due to his acting, but more about the plot and things leading up to the plot that i didn't enjoy. because in this, i loved him so much, and now i'm a fan of him lol. the way he expresses himself is so beautiful and sincere, and his pain, it feels so real. as for the main fl, i think i'm a fan of her from this work lol. honestly, im surprised of how many historical dramas she's in lol she really either has a passion for this kind of role or she's unforuntately typecasted where they only see her in specific roles, which would be unfortunate, so i hope it's not like that for her sake. she's an amazing actress, i love the way she expresses her feelings with her eyes, it's just so real. and omgoodness that whole scene where she dances with the water... it was breathtaking. i really loved it. it kind of reminded me of that scene in magicians of love where they're crossing the fountain or what not on the stones to see if they'd make it their true love. i love the aspect of dance and rain or dance and water, it's so beautiful. another i loved in this series was the floating lanterns... you really don't see that very often anymore, and it was so beautiful and breathtaking, i couldn't look away. this will, if not obvious, be a 10/10 for me <3. a complete recommendation.

ive been wanting to watch this for years because of gong yoo, cuz he's so amazing in everything, and honestly, if not for him, it'd be a thousand times worse than it was. i really didn't like this. i was incredibly bored and couldn't really connect to the characters, so this wasn't a fun watch for me.

i've heard a lot of recs about this drama, so decided to try it out. as soon as i saw the drama poster i knew i wouldn't like it, idk, im not big on "girl power" dramas despite being a girl. it just doesn't interest me, at least in this way. and the description didn't make the poster seem any better. this drama was really hard for me to watch, i felt mostly bored throughout the series, and i couldn't really connect with anyone. i did love the main couple, i will say. they had really good chemistry, and just such a cute relationship. and around episode 11 i started to ship the drama actor with her friend, but - i still couldn't really like it. honestly, if someone asked me to give a review, i wouldn't be able to write anything constructive about this drama as i feel like i mostly wasted my time trying to focus and watch this. it was a big no for me. i gave a 2 just for the cute relationship with the main couple.

as soon as i heard about this series, and saw screenshots and mvs of it, i knew i'd love it. the ratings weren't that great tbh, but i was still interested. i was definitely right on my judgement, because since episode 1 was glued to the screen. it was so gooodd. i loved the fl's character and having her be a police officer was really interesting, and made her bad ass lol. i loved that role for this actress. one of my favurite actresses, i might add. although i did love this series, i felt like she was kind of being type casted in this role as this series reminded me a lot of goblin, which was amazing. the storyline was very different, but there was little things that reminded me of it. but that really didn't stop me from liking this drama, i really did love it. and honestly, this kind of genre seems like my type of drama. goblin, bulgasal, the king eternal monarch... they all had a similar feeling to it, but each were their own and had amazing qualities in each of the series. 

more about the drama, i honestly loved how they had doppelgangers, and it was so fun to see how their personality was pretty similar and their names completely different. and honestly, all of these actors were amazing. the ml as always was amazing too, he's one of my favurite actors as well, which was why i had been excited to see how they'd act together. lee min ho and kim go eun had really good chemistry, i was in love everytime i saw them on the screen together, just amazing. it was also so nice to see the ahjuuma from coffee prince in here! i love her so much. ahhh... so many amazing actors were in this drama and it made it such a 10! i would definitely rec this for anyone, especially someone into the fantasy type of different worlds.

this series was truly amazing and beautiful. honestly, i wrote a big review about this but ended up deleting it because it was just a mess. i'm still unclear on how to describe this series.

i loved everything from the chemistry, the music, the dialogue, the storyline, to the flow... it was simply perfect. i loved their close group of friends, and the chemistry and storyline about all of them and how they related to each other.  

this series did such a fantastic job in casting each of these actors, because i fell in love with so many actors that weren't on my radar, the only one i knew of was the ml from various roles, and he did amazing as always. but i discovered so many new favourites, and that's another thing that made me love this series even more.

most of the time, i felt like i was watching a japanese drama just because of the tone of the drama. i got a lot of proposal daisakusen and/or honey and clover vibes. and i do love those two series, so that was definitely not a bad thing. 

i've seen a lot of mixed reviews on the ending or more like, the episodes leading to the ending anddd the actual ending. because of that, it made this drama more painful and sad because they'd comment this and that and make me feel like i had to prepare myself for the heartache. as for me, i felt like it only began to become more sad near the end of episode 15 and onwards. so yes, they had good reason. when they had this close-knit group and relationships that were so perfect and real, it was just such a let-down and painful for them to all depart. it's a reality and as a drama watcher, it's not something we really necessary like to see, instead a happy ending is a preference, which is why the reviews are mixed up. honestly, i feel like if the main couple at least stayed together or reunited years later, it would've made the ending more perfect... but despite that ending, it was truly an amazing drama. 

this drama was really funny and had lots of cute moments, as well as amazing chemistry. i loved all the actors, they were so great together. although i did love this drama, and i definitely would give it a 10, i can't say it's one of my favourites. it deserves a ten just from all chemistry, the way the plot flowed, and also the less amount of drama was such a nice breath of fresh air. there has been so much worse that i watched, so i would definitely recommend this for someone.

the problem with the drama for me is that it wasn't really special, nothing really impacted me. it was a drama full of cliches, and just everything felt like it was something i've seen all the time, nothing really felt like new. so while it was nice that there wasn't much drama, i couldn't really connect to it. another thing i felt was how similar it was to youth of may, which was basically the main plot except the best friend in this drama wasn't a bitch lol. which was so nice! i was worried she'd turn on her, like in that drama, so i was really glad. 

a few things i really loved about this drama, was definitely the best friends bond. they were so close and cute and hilarious together, i loved them. they had the best chemistry, and it was such a nice thing to see because i find a lot of series have a hard time with keeping the romance and friendships just as good, but this series did great! oh and i also loved the grandpa actor! i was so happy as soon as i saw him, i loved him in suspicious partner, and omg, he was just as hilarious and cute in this drama as he was in sp. 

overall, it was a great watch and i'd definitely recommend it for a fun and easy watch for anyone looking for drama-free or less drama like storylines, but i wouldn't rewatch it.

i really loved the beach aspect to this drama, it made it feel so lighthearted, you just don't see many dramas that revolve around a beach setting. the drama itself was... okay. i loved the two main leads and how they were drawn to eachother, it was such a good connection. but then useless drama came, and even though it was only 14 episodes, it felt like it was too long. i mostly wanted the series to end. i feel like maybe if i was younger i'd like this, but as an older age, it just didn't impact me the same way.

this was a short and sweet drama. i really loved it. honestly for it to be only 5 episodes, 5 short episodes and be able to capture the viewers like this, that's pretty amazing. the two main leads had good chemistry, and anything rain is in, she'll be amazing so i didn't expect anything less from her. the way she captures emotion in her eyes and her face, it's just amazing. i also loved the travel aspect, its one of my favourite things to watch in a drama, so when i find movies or dramas about it, i get so excited. i would definitely recommend this for someone, especially if they're looking for a short and beautiful series to watch. you definitely wouldn't be disappointed. 

i really liked the plot's description, it kinda reminded me of w two worlds, but it really wasn't anything of that sort. this drama was incredibly boring for me and i don't think the main leads had the greatest chemistry. it was really hard for me to focus, even though it was super short. idk i wouldn't rewatch it, i barely could finish it, so it's hard to say if anyone else would like this type of drama.

this was  a really good drama. it was short but the message was powerful. i really loved the characters and actors. and i loved so much they used japanese and korean in this drama, it made it so much more beautiful. it was interesting to see how many korean actors ik are fluent in japanese. and i was also able to watch a drama with the fl which i loved in different japanese dramas, so it was so nice to see her in this role. haruka honestly broke my heart numerous times throughout this watch, and she's the one who stole the drama for me. everyone was amazing though. oh and that water bottle and light trick? I LOVED IT. i tried it, n it worked n then i got so excited. ^_^

a rewatch. apparently the last time i saw this was 6 years ago lol, which feels so weird. i saw a mv on tiktok and then got hooked and kept rewatching mvs on youtube. this drama was better than i remembered. yes there were things about the main leads in the beginning: the ml being basically an asshole towards her, and the fl being kind of annoying and just had weird characteristics, but! it wasn't as bad as i remembered. they were so cute together, and had amazing chemistry. i watched fight for my way a month or so ago and i remember thinking how the ml who is also in she was pretty, park seo joon acted very similar to gong yoo. and wow, i wasn't wrong. rewatching this drama made me realize he had always acted that way. it's so weird, because the way he says things or looks at the lead, or just his body language, it makes me think of gong yoo so much. almost like im watching his younger sibling, which i don't think is true. its not even about them looking alike, just the way they present and express themselves. anyways~ this drama was such an amazing watch, and im so glad to go back to it. if i rated it again, which i won't, it would be another 10. i also found there were so many things that irritated me during the first watch that i now feel different. like the reasons i mentioned earlier, as well as loving the second male lead now, siwon, which i hated the first time i watched this series. i effing loved him during this watch, he was so goofy and hilarious, and i think i fell in love with his voice <3. i also loved to discover how one of the supporting characters was shin hye sun! i am such a big fan of her work from mr. queen, angel's last mission: love, thirty but seventeen... yes, i love her acting. and her acting was great as a supporting cast mate as well. it kinda resembled her role in thirty but seventeen with some angel's last mission: love characteristics. but i did love her <3.

another rewatch. i blame 2521, that drama made me want to watch this so much. and i dont regret it as i love this series. one of my favourite kdramas. the leads have the best chemistry, and i love the comedy, all the cast, the music, and the just the way the "tone" is in the drama. very slice of life, and i just love it. beautiful drama <333.

i honestly wasn't epecting much, since im used to being disappointed, but this drama was really good. the mains had the cutest chemistry, i just loved them. and i loved all the volleyball scenes, which is why it is kind of sad they didn't put a lot of those scenes in the series. i would definitely rec this to others, but although it was really good and rec-able, it wasn't an amazing series, so it'd be a 5/10 for me.

i definitely preferred season 1 versus season 2. this season was really boring in comparison, and i felt like a lot of the story was almost pointless.the main leads had such chemistry though, i really did like them, but overall, i just was waiting for this series to end. so this wasn't a good watch for me, and i wouldn't rec.

i didn't really like this, it felt really boring to me, and it was really hard to focus. before i knew it, i was on episode 5 and i could barely remember a lot of the details, which shows how much i liked it. i wouldnt rec this.

i was really excited to watch this, because i love plots with time loops. but then i read about the ml's bio and it kinda ruined it for me for a long while, almost dropped it. but i kept going because i absolutely hate dropping dramas now. and honestly the drama wasn't that amazing. it was mostly comedy and the ml had a weird personality that i didn't really like. i only liked the scenes where he became serious and didn't act so ridiculous. and honestly, it wasn't just the ml but all the other actors i didn't really care for. i felt really disconnected to all of them and it was rly hard to like this. maybe midway i started to like it more, but more than anything i was waiting for it to end. i wouldn't rec this, it just wasn't a great watch, and i felt like the characters had no chemistry.

this was a short movie about a mixed racial child and it was really heartbreaking to see. his japanese classmates made him feel like he had aids just because of the different color of his skin tone. it was quite sad especially when you think about how this actually happens in real life.
