2022 Completed List

this movie was about the ml losing his memory and not remembering his previous life. this movie was really boring imo. i didn't think the leads had the greatest chemistry, and when the truth came it, idk, it wasn't surprising. i couldn't really feel much from this movie despite the storyline being quite heartbreaking. i feel like movies when there's mostly quietness and no music, it just makes it feel more bland and i couldn't get into it. 

this was such a sad movie. i loved the aspect of them meeting in jail and falling in love as they helped each other heal. it was so sad to end like that... the leads were amazing actors, and had the best chemistry. i'd definitely rec this to anyone.

"sister monica, you sent me an angel."

i found this movie boring from beginning to end, and i couldn't focus, i just wanted it to end. 

this movie was pretty good, i loved the chemistry and the acting. and the music was beautiful too. the storyline felt like a mess though, it was a weird plot, and i was really confused about it. but it was a good watch.

i wasn't a fan of this. the beginning started good and it was cute and then suddenly it became boring and really weird. 

this was surprisingly good. i really loved the cat aspect, so adorable. and i loved the character who was turning into a cat. i didnt even realize who the actor was until someone commented and i realized he was from angel's last mission: love. it made so much sense why i liked this drama more than i realized i would. that being said, it was a really good drama but i felt like half way, despite it being quite a short drama, that it got kind of draggy so i kinda began to lose interest. i would rec this but idk if i'd rewatch it. overall, it was a cute watch <3.

this movie started out good but then not much happened and i got bored and suddenly there was couple drama, and i just wanted it to be over. i do have to say though that the main leads had really good chemistry <3. which why i gave it a 2.

this was a beautiful short drama. the story that it was based on was really heartbreaking and the more i learned, the more i read, it became more tragic. i really loved this drama, it was so beautiful. all i can say is it was really haunted.

"in order to not lose himself, he chose death."

-

"Are you truly living? No, I am yearning for death in order to truly live."

i didn't like this. it was really weird. especially when all of a sudden her child is kidnapped and held for ransom and then dies, and then she becomes this religious person? idk, it was a strange af story.

i heard that this is version of hana yori dango is the best one out of all the remakes, so i wanted to give it a watch. this drama was... okay. i think this was my first thailand drama and that might be part of the issue, the difference in language that i'm not used to. the acting and the chemistry were really good, nd i love how they didn't ugli-fy the ml with curls unlike the other versions lol. i also loved how this series was almost like a mix between hana yori dango (japanese) and boys over flowers (korean). a lot of the stuff i loved from hana yori dango was in this drama which made me love it a lot more, and the stuff from boys over flowers weren't crazy that it ridiculous or anything. overall, if this had been my first version of the drama i probably would have loved it, but hana yori dango has my heart, and most of the time i saw my favourite scenes i couldn't not see the scenes in that version and then miss that drama altogether and want to stop watching this version just to go back lol. this was a good adaption, and i'd rec it, just wasn't so much for me.

i was really excited to watch this that i bumped it up on my to watch list. i loved the kdrama remake, moon lovers, so when i heard this is even more amazing i was excited to watch it. i don't normally watch chinese dramas, the most i like to watch related to that would be taiwanese. so idk if this was another language barrier that made me not get into the drama, because i hated this lol. i was incredibly bored and it was really hard to understand what was going on and how it relates to moon lovers. this was definitely different. i felt like it was so hard to connect to the characters and at episode 6 i felt like dropping it. and unfortunately this drama is 35 episodes. i stuck it out and kept watching it and it didn't get better, but i guess i gave it a fair chance. i wanted to watch the second season right after, but i'm going to need a break lol. i'm hoping when i watch the second season i'll like it more, maybe because it's more modern it will be better, but idk. moon lovers is definitely superior for me, that was a complete 10 and beyond, and this... i don't even want to rate, i didn't like it at all.

this was such an amazing series. i was glued to the screen from episode 1. i s2g anything i watch ji sung in, he's amazing. the way he acts is so unlike anyone else, and it truly feels like he's not even acting, it's just so perfect. in doctor john his role wasn't any different, he stole the show for me. this will probably be my favourite doctor kdrama yet. i loved how they told things in different ways, like they'd be talking and all of sudden transport to this 3D scene and it'd look so cool. i loved it. i also loved how they discovered different illnesses in this weird detective approach, it was so interesting. i also loved how the ml was incredibly observant and brilliant and was able to diagnose anyone in 10 seconds or if something was difficult to diagnose, he did the impossible. also that illness was such an interesting one for the ml to have, i loved it. it brought such emotion to the role which had a lot of irony based on him having cipa. i loved all the characters, and their little team of doctors in the pain management area, and i loved how there was no love triangles but it was more about the actual real issues. honestly the only one i hated was that damn nurse who i felt was worse than the ml by forcing the dude to sign that document. honestly. tbh, the lawyer, he actually grew on me. he was a good person and understanding once things became more explained and revealed, he changed a lot. and that whole twist with him being sick with cancer, it was heartbreaking. at the beginning i thought he was lying in that group meeting, so when it was true, i grew to love him even more. i feel like i could go on and on about this drama on what i loved so i'll end it here. 10/10 this drama. definitely recommended!

i thought i would love this as i love zombie apocalypse plots, but it was really hard for me to get into. the beginning was really slow and boring for me, and it didn't really grip me. it wasn't until half way that i started to get into the series and then become attached to the main characters. it was interesting, but completely overrated. i probably wouldn't watch this again, but i'd definitely watch the sequel if it ever comes out. 

this series resembled tokyo ghoul a lot, especially at the beginning. because of that i was on the fence of liking it, as for me, it felt like a copycat version, because the monsters were definitely no ghouls. it was extremely hard for me to watch this. not because it was scary or gory but just that i felt so bored throughout it. i felt bad, because one of the reasons i wanted to watch this was for lee si young as i recognized her from all of those funny tiktoks she has, but i couldn't like it. the plot twist ending was the best part for me, but other than that i was really bored. i wouldn't rec this.

i was really excited for this drama but it ended up being something i didn't expect. it's not like i didn't know the plot, the characters, and their dynamic, but somehow i couldn't really get attached. it's surprising, because this is the type of drama i love. i thought it would resemble my mister a lot, and it does in a way, but not in the way i expected. it was hard to pay attention sometimes, and the only times i could was when it was focused on the main couple. i did love everyone's acting and stories, but i guess this drama wasn't for me.

ive been meaning to watch this for a long time, and honestly this was so bad. it was strange: a mixture of thriller and medical. i just couldn't get on board with this. it was really painful to watch, despite loving all the actors and i did think they were amazing in their roles, i just couldn't like the series or plot. i gave it a bigger rating because of the actors, but i honestly could have lived without watching this. i would not rec it.

i put this on hold years ago, and back then, i did love this series, so i didn't change the rating. unfortunately, this rewatch has not been good for me this time around. the beginning was good, i love the music and the acting. and the main couple have such amazing chemistry. it's crazy that he has chemistry with both sisters, it shows how amazing the actresses are to portray that same character. after the beginning i got very bored, and it wasn't until the last 10 episodes i started to get into it again. lots of character development and redeeming character arcs, and i really loved that. by the ending, peter became my favourite, which i never would have expected. now im a fan of the actor, he was so good! honestly, all of them acted so amazingly. i can see why this was popular back then. although i did love the ending and the beginning, and their acting, i still would never rewatch this. it was a complete melodrama, and im not too keen on those these days. if you love melodramas, then you'd love this.

when it first came out i really wanted to see it, so finally when i got a chance to watch it, tbh, i wasn't expecting much just based on the new dramas and how they didn't meet my expectations. but this was different. it started off slow, but by the middle of episode 1 i started to get into, and then fall for the quiet brooding love, and i just loved it. obviously my favourite trope and also i loved the slice of life. just a realistic drama. i loved the actors and the plot, and i'd rewatch it again. 

this was an amazing movie. i really loved it. at first it was a little hard to get into, i wasn't really a fan of the "stalking", but once the ml entered i quickly began to ship them and fall in love with both of them. it was so heartbreaking to find out he was the one her friend liked, cuz there i was thinking it's all gonna work out for both of the girls, but plot twist! lol. they had amazing chemistry, i would watch a series with them as the main leads! the ending was so sad, but it kinda fit the whole tone of the movie. there was always this sadness as if it was foreshadowing something bad that would happen, so when i found out about the ending, i wasn't too surprised, because i knew they'd either separate and move on from their first love, or it would be due to a death. it was still an amazing movie, and i'd probably watch it again. <3.

honestly, i get the name, with the oo's becoming stars because it enhances the "shooting stars"... but really, all i end up reading is shitting stars x_x...

anyways, with that out of the way, about this drama... i really loved it. i knew i would love it due to me seeing lots of clips (not on my own will, cuz spoilers suck) but it became super cute. i was hooked from the beginning. i just loved their whole dynamic, and i loved that they were basically just idiots always fighting instead of being honest with each other.  the comedy, the bickering couples, and even the support characters were amazing.

i do have to say, they kinda lost from around episode 10-14 when they were going through all of the emotional trauma ordeal. it's not like i usually hate that kind of plot, but it was a complete detour from the tone of the drama, it felt very drastic. and idk i lost interest. but episode 15-16 they returned the tone of the drama and i fell in love again!

i srsly loved this drama -ill pretend the middle part didnt happen- and loved the chemistry between the leads. and the bromance! between the ex rivals, with him making him latte's... omg so adorable. i'd definitely rec this drama!

what a beautiful and amazing drama. the two leads had such an amazing chemistry, i was really surprised. they had this strong connection that made me want to just start crying whenever they looked at each other. the pain and regret they experienced throughout the series really resonated and i could feel it in almost every scene they portrayed. i also loved how the friend was always there observing, it became more heartbreaking when i realized he loved her and met her first. what an amazing friend he was just to give up his feelings for his best friend. i loved how it was a documentary style drama. i mean, not technically, but they were in one together. the beginning's documentary was so funny and cute, they were so innocent and just always bickering, which showed their age. i was a little sad there wasn't more bickering between the two in the second documentary, especially in regards of the documentary interviews. i feel like because of their painful unfinished love, it made them just heartbroken most of the series, especially until things were revealed more in the light. i still effing loved this series. oh and the music... beautiful. sometimes i'd get unfocused, on my phone, surprise surprise... and suddenly the music would begin playing and reel me back in. i also loved how there wasn't really any love triangles. or love squares. there were two others that liked them, but compared to their unfinished love and heartache, it didn't even hit their radar. and i loved how the other two dealt with it in a mature and accepting way, compared to some dramas where they become controlling and manipulating. and that ending... where they are about to film a documentary now as a married couple... omg the feels, i just burst in giddy tears, i love them so much. anyways... this series was beautiful and amazing, and i would rec it for anyone. 10/10. masterpiece!

this miniseries reminded me of the english movie when harry met sally. it had that little interview style where they talk about different points of their life of what thoughts and impressions they had of each other, as the present story kept going on. i loved that movie, so i thought i might like this. but soon i realized i rly didn't like it. for one, i think it was due to the short episodes. 5 episodes was too short for this style of miniseries, and the second was that i rly didnt like the ml's personality. it was okay for a half hour or so watch, wouldn't rec it though.

i didn't think i'd like this but was pleasantly surprised. the beginning kind of reminded me of you're beautiful. i mean the ml even yells at her for doing something stupid in his room just like in that drama, and they're also both a boy band. this was a really cute watch, and i was worried it would be draggy, but it was a great length! im not sure about the ml's acting, though, it seemed not rly believable most times, but he did have good chemistry with the fl. i loved her brother's bromance with the other member, their bromance was just too funny. overall, a good watch especially if you're looking for something nice and simple.

so idk what to say about this drama. it was incredibly short and barely anything happened. it was basically little blurbs about her "unlucky" life, i guess it was pretty realistic in that sense. she seemed really funny and quirky, so its really unfortunate they made it until such a small drama. if they developed the storyline more, the female lead wouldve definitely stolen the audience! so for that i'll give a  2.

this was interesting... i don't typically watch asian dramas with vampires so i was interested with how differently they'd be portrayed. this series wasn't anything special. i mean, it kept my attention, it had a lot of plot interesting plot points, and i think the leads had good chemistry. it wasn't amazing, but if you like vampires and want a short romance drama, this would be for you.

this was really sweet. i loved seeing them warming up to each other and then bonding. i loved how she showed him the way to open up to new ideas and just grow as a person, and how he taught her things they helped change her life for the better. by the last episode, i was heartbroken that he was all by himself as she just sung a song to him. i'm glad for the ending! i'd rec this for sure.

i really liked the beginning. i thought it was such a cute plot. i guess my imagination was different than what actually happened. i imagined them becoming close and his friends excited there was a girl he was in love with... and it was a close knit kind of group. i mean, this was okay. but not that great. halfway, i began to lose interest and just wanted it to end. im actually surprised theres like three seasons. one was enough for me lol.

this series was really sweet. my first lgbt drama, and at first it felt weird but then it just was so perfect. the main leads had really good chemistry, they were adorable together. and i loved all three of them together, so the ending made me so happy. 

i feel like this was really overrated, as i went into this thinking -based on the all the reviews- that it would be really good. it was... okay. nothing amazing. idk, even at the beginning when they were still getting to know each other, i wasn't really into it. i liked the first episode, and a little of the second episode but then began to get bored pretty fast. i also don't think i was a fan of the ml, he seemed a little of a jerk. i did like the tone of the drama, though, with that beach side vibe, it was really nice.

this was difficult to get into which was why i had a hard time. i loved the tone of the drama, the beautiful soundtrack, but idk, i guess because it lacked more story and direction than anything, so it wasn't a good watch for me.

i was excited about this, so i'm really glad i loved it. this was so effing adorable, i died a million times. the two leads had amazing chemistry, and i loved all their scenes together! they were just so effing cute together, i couldn't keep my eyes away! one of my favourite dramas for sure. 

this was so unbelievably cute. the two mls had amazing chemistry. i wasn't sure at first, but then they began to talk in such a tense way, their chemistry was difficult to miss! i loved the way the one guy would bug him and slowly they both grew attached to each other. the whole part where he pushes him away as he asks him to go to a movie and showing "error, error, error" i felt that was so powerful to show what he was going through. this was an awesome watch! i would rec it for anyone!

this was awful. i couldn't get through it without 2x speed. i felt like the ml was so creepy and disgusting, and the way she just accepted the weird vibes for love was messed up. also it was effing weird with all the other guys being obsessed with her so sexually, i really hated this.

i didn't really like this. i felt like the ml was really shallow and selfish and just pretty shitty for the majority of the drama. ik he had some character development where he started to care more about the fl, but idk, i couldn't get into this. the plot was very strange as well.

i was hoping i'd like this, but it was a bust. idk, i wasn't drawn to the characters or their stories. it's not even about it being about friendships and family, i just still couldn't really connect so it was hard to pay attention and even enjoy it.

this was a really good drama. episode 1-2 were simply amazing, and the way they captured the characters feelings and struggle was powerful. around episode 3 i started to not like it as much. i just found the way they began to express their emotions was a little different, and not something i liked to see. and then i slowly began to feel de attached from the characters and just wanted them to end up with each other and finish the drama. i mean it wasn't bad, but really different, that's for sure.

i didn't like this. i couldn't focus on the stories or the characters at all.

i didn't like this. it was really boring and hard to pay attention to.

this was really weird. i feel like i was watching a drama with all the characters randomly kissing each other. it just seemed like a stupid and pointless drama.

i was so excited to watch this, for years! i loved the original japanese version so much, so i thought i'd love this no matter what. i mean essentially its the same idea, right? but unfortunately, i hated this in comparison. i was extremely bored and i didn't like the characters. the one thing that i hated the most was the whole "show" they had which didn't exist in the other version. that really turned me off of it. imo the japanese version was definitely superior.

what an incredible and beautiful movie. it was so heartwarming yet so heartbreaking. it was amazing drama of healing through the sound of music. i loved all their friendships and their chemistry, and the music was breathtaking. i would recommend this to anyone. <3.

i took a small break in between the drama im watching since this seemed nice and short. honestly, i was really surprised. i don't really know this actor but this short movie was really good. basically about him trying to land an audition and it was just really powerful. and his whole dance segment at the end of the movie... i loved it! it was so great.

i've been meaning to watch this for years and i was really excited to actually watch it. i loved the anime so much, it's nostalgic to think about as it was one of those few animes i watched when i first became an anime addict. so that's why i was really excited for this. unfortunately this drama was really not a good example to live up to the peach girl's anime. they changed a lot of details and it really made it hard to enjoy it. whenever they did something that was like the anime, i got happy, but that was always short lived. idk, if i think of the drama as it's own and not an adaptation, i still don't think i'd like it. because a lot of things they did was so weird and dramatic, and just cringe. 

what an amazing and beautiful movie! i was so surprised i would love this so much. it had the vibe from the 1960s, and i really loved that aspect. and then the whole thing were she leaves the movie to enter his world was so interesting. honestly, this movie reminded me of the movie pleasantville where two main characters enter a black and white movie and slowly turn the world into color. especially at the end of tonight, at the romance theater they had this alternative ending to their love story of him bringing a colored rose and turning everyone and everything into color, and that reminded me so much of it. the two leads had amazing chemistry, i loved them so much. it was heartbreaking that in the whole series they couldn't once touch until his death, and again, that whole ending scene... it reminded me a lot of titanic's ending where rose is dreaming as she passes away in her sleep, and she reunites with jack at their titanic wedding with everyone who died on that ship. it's just such a beautiful and heartbreaking ending.

this was.... effing weird. like incredibly weird. it was so weird and confusing that it kept me entertained. i couldn't look away because so much weird shit kept happening, like really gory weird shit. i would never rewatch this lol idk if i'd rec this either, it's so effing weird. i def would give them some warning. 

this was incredibly boring and i couldn't focus at all. it's really surprising as i love the ml, he's one of my favourite actors. so it's really unfortunate.

i haven't watched any of the prequels so i feel like i couldn't relate to this or understand it. i watched it for a challenge. so unfortunately, it was hard to focus and pay attention because it felt really boring to me.

p.s. maybe this is why you should wait until it's completely over to make a little review! cuz close to the ending is where it got rly good. i was so engaged, and heartbroken for him and the fl. and i loved seeing the "before" of rurouni kenshin and what led up to when he meet kaoru. my rating definitely jumped from a 1 to a 5 just from the ending <3.

i thought i was going to love as i did love the anime version, but this movie didn't really grasp my attention that much. i did like some of the car races, especially loved when they showed his special move, where he can drive super fast without anything moving. that was pretty neat to see. although the dad was an alcoholic, i loved him lol. so it was an okay watch.

this was such a good adaptation! i was pleasantly surprised. i really enjoyed this movie, it was so close to how the anime was depicted, so it made me happy! i loved all the actors, they did such an amazing job to portray their characters! i also found it funny that the fl's voice reminded me of the fl in hana yori dango. just something about about she yelled at people, it sounded so similar i had do to a double take. overall, an amazing watch!

hikaru no go's live action was so amazing. i loved the way they stayed true to the story, it was fantastic. they kept so many plots, n once in a while would change things up, but rly, it was all completely adapted amazingly. the only thing i'll say is that i feel like a lot of scenes and lines they delivered never were impacted  with the same feelings as the original. maybe cuz its a drama, with real live actors, it was hard for them to express the lines in such a impactful way. but i honestly feel like if the direction or the actors were to speak in that way, they couldve done it. its like instead they are more quiet n if you don't pay attention, the scene is over n you would have missed the whole thing. that is what rly bugged me. another thing was sai. i feel like sai was so... quiet, i guess? the sai ik is this kawaii, hilarious spirit that is go-obsessed. i remember so many times sai would be like 'if you don't want to play hikaru, i will for you!' i just feel like they completely changed his personality, n that was kinda crappy for me. i also feel like cuz they aged up hikaru, he was more mature n because of that he was thoughtful n understanding with sai... which was great, but i think all their arguments were so adorable cuz it was over stupid stuff n it happened more probably because he was younger. so idk.  all in all, an amazing series... from 31-35 i cried buckets out. they srsly delivered sai's disappearance with grace. amazing acting that is for sure.

p.s. the one thing i loved the most out of everything? THE fact they used the anime's ost in this drama. it srsly made it feel like it was hikaru no go i was watching. amazing decision making on whoever chose that, because it was a brilliant way to keep them connected. i loved how they kept the same year as when the anime was released, so with all the old fashioned electronics, and etc.

i was excited to watch this because i loved goong with a passion. i loved it so much when i was getting addicted to dramas. but i was so disappointed in this. the acting was overdone, i hated how they changed the storyline, the comedy couldn't compare, as well as the friendships, and no teddy bear end sequence! so heartbreaking.

and the one scene to rly make me die laughing, the learning how to drive a car! sighs. just was not the same or even on the same level. just awful.

i rly didn't like this. idk. it was interesting they spoke a lot of english idk if its common to do so their language, but it was interesting yet rly weird lol. the story was basically like she's all that. i loved that film, but this i just didnt like.
