    1. Live Your Strength

    Korean Special - 2020, 1 episode

    6.5

    I liked seeing Suzy in this since she's one of my fave actresses.

    Though I felt like it was missing a point. Even if the point was to advertise a product, the product wasn't really advertised at all either. I have watched far better ad short films of the same length. Τhe message they wanted to pass, though, is nice!

    ↳ Not a waste of my time:)

    2. Love is...

    Korean Special - 2017, 3 episodes

    7.5

    An 18 min long ad for Tiffany& Co.

    The best one was the third with Lee Dong Wook. Nice and sweet little stories and good use of my 18 mins when I was bored and had nothing else to do.

     ↳ Also kudos to them for the ugliest pieces of jewelry I've ever seen. It deserves a high rating just for that!

  • Oppa Will Date Instead

    3. Oppa Will Date Instead

    Korean Drama - 2020, 4 episodes

    3.5

    I'm on the quest for the best short web drama and this one aint it -_-

    Even though the FL is an idol I really liked her acting. The ML's acting though is unnatural and weird. The other 2 characters didn't offer anything.

    The editing was also very choppy and sometimes the background music was louder than their voices- a lot more scenes could be elevated if the editing was better.

    ↳ Overall this  drama felt pointless, it didn't make me feel any emotions- I watched it with a straight face- and it would be 100 times better if the whole possession thing was out of the way

  • Mr. Pride vs. Miss Prejudice

    4. Mr. Pride vs. Miss Prejudice

    Chinese Movie - 2017

    9.5

    [MOVIE]

    Why is this literally one of the funniest things I've ever seen? Is my humor that dumb ??...probably

    I loved the majority of this movie. Dilraba is amazing as always and extremely funny. She had me rolling on the floor with all the shit she was doing lmao

    ↳Overall I really liked this movie surprisingly, although the romance was kind of weak and it almost lost its charm in the second half.

  • The Yin-Yang Master: Dream of Eternity

    6. The Yin-Yang Master: Dream of Eternity

    Chinese Movie - 2020

    8.5

    [MOVIE]

    The cinematography deserves an 11/10. I'm not used to such great quality. Also the first half deserves a 10 and the soundtracks and audio editing in general deserve a 10 as well.

    BUT that ugly ass snake messed up my vibes. It was disgusting and got me scared so my enjoyment went down to 8 or even less. 

    My  man Wang Duo though had so much screentime so 8.5 from me teehee ^^

    ↳Overall, I think it's very beautiful visually but the story for the 2 protagonists,specifically, lacks. There's a second movie tho so I hope they expand on the story then ^-^

  • Queen Cheorin

    7. Queen Cheorin

    Korean Drama - 2020, 20 episodes

    9.5

    This was one of the best dramas I have ever watched. It had the right amount of comedy, romance, politics, suspense. I would watch it the minute that the subs were out

    [spoilers]

    Although, I personally got dissapointed cause all of these amazing eps. gave me high expectations. The first 16 eps were amazing but the last 4 definitely lacked something. Towards the end there were so many things piling up which indicated that it's gonna be hard for them to resolve the problem. But at last it wasn't executed well in my opinion and the biggest problem the protagonists were facing got resolved pretty fast, which made it look like it was something easy. I just couldn't believe it was done already.

    Now for the romance part of the story I don't really care about other opinions that say that this was "obviously" not BL and Bong hwan never loved the king. For me there were feelings from both parties and especially Cheoljong fell in love with Bong hwan not the queen ( I don't care about that one scene of the spin off). So at the end it felt like Cheoljong was cheated from ending up with his real lover and just a cheap excuse for the writers to end it on a heterosexual relationship. There were no strong indications that the king had only feelings for the queen alone or that Bong hwan never had romantic feelings for the king.

    ↳Overall, I felt cheated from this ending since at the beginning I didn't mind the development of just a friendship between them, but later on all those scenes made me believe in their romance which was taken away from us so abruptly at the end. In general I think the last eps. had a LOT of plot holes to the story which I didn't expect for a drama that is 20 eps. long -_- But I loved the majority of it so much!

    This drama is definitely an example of queerbaiting in my opinion :/

  • Lost Romance

    8. Lost Romance

    Taiwanese Drama - 2020, 20 episodes

    9.0

    This drama was everything I ever wanted to watch in a story. . I loved the whole theme of getting into a romance novel world and not actually being the protagonist. The first 11 eps were absolutely AMAZING. I loved it so much that when it started getting boring after 12 eps I got extremely heartbroken and stopped watching it. After the disaster, though, that was Mr. queen's ending I realized this drama did nothing wrong.

    They did everything right with the story, although I have a few complaints. I was bothered that the SML got forgotten after a while. He honestly deserved better T_T. Also I think this needed way less eps. so that it wouldn't get so boring, and lastly the chemistry between the leads needed to be a bit better.

    ↳Overall, this started off amazing, but it did get boring towards the end which made me sad

  • Wolf Girl and Black Prince

    9. Wolf Girl and Black Prince

    Japanese Movie - 2016

    7.0

    [MOVIE]

    This movie is the example of how important songs and background music is in movies. 90% of it was completely silent. The feeling I got from this movie was soo eerie, just sitting there in silence. Even horror movies don't make me feel like that

    This movie is also the example of how directing can make or break a movie. When the camera is close to the actors, firstly, you can see their freaking FACES and second you feel close to them emotionally as well. Good directing can help you understand the characters' feelings even when they don't say anything. But HOW THE HECK am I supposed to even SEE the actors when the camera is placed 10 miles away. They were just talking and the camera was so far apart that you would see only their sillouetes. And that was an ongoing occurence for the entirity of this movie....also let's not forget how it looked like it was filmed by a 10 year old

    ↳Overall, the only good thing about this movie is ma man Kento and I'm pretty sure that I could have filmed it 10 times better using my phone's trashy camera -_-

  • Mr. Queen: The Bamboo Forest

    10. Mr. Queen: The Bamboo Forest

    Korean Special - 2021, 2 episodes

    9.0

    It had a lot of funny scenes although I didn't enjoy the 2nd ep. as much cause of Mr.Queen's ending -_-

  • Queen of the Ring

    11. Queen of the Ring

    Korean Drama - 2017, 21 episodes

    7.5

    This was a very good short drama cause of the many good actors that participated in it. Usually short dramas aren't really worth it for me cause the acting is not so decent. Also the duration was great for it to not feel so rushed. Some scenes were cringy , some others questionable but I felt good watching it :) The ending of each ep made me want to watch the next one immediately.

    The ending tho was quite underwhelming. I think the story could have been concluded a little bit differently. For me they kinda lost it with what the message about appearance that they tried to portray and even if the duration was enough it did feel rushed ( some scenes really were out of nowhere and didnt need to be there) I guess they wanted to pass a nice message but what they really passed is you can be ugly but if someone loves you,  you're beautiful to them. Like....thanks? -_- 

    ↳Overall, one of the good short dramas that are worth it but underwhelming ending.

  • I Have Three Boyfriends

    13. I Have Three Boyfriends

    one of the short dramas that is totally worth to watch.

    The ending is just so unexpected which was a great experience.

  • Eighteen Again

    this drama was such a pleasant surprise! 

    Never thought that I would enjoy it so much but it was so good! I cried a lot and laughed a lot, I l enjoyed the romance, the ML's fatherly love for his children, the FL's story and the childrens' parts as well!

    Basically everything lol

  • Chiaro di luna

    15. Chiaro di luna

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 36 episodes

    9.5

    One of my fave dramas! The actors did a great job, the characters were interesting and this drama gives off a feeling of calmness without actually being boring! 

    Every ep makes you happy and relaxed so I would watch it before bed. 2 or 3 eps tho towards the end got melodramatic, which was kind of unexpected considering the rest of the drama...that's why I can't give it a perfect score

    Honestly I had a love-hate relationship with the ML lol...I hated his ass for most of the drama, because he was quite childish and annoying, but it was more like being annoyed by a sibling that you actually love deep down. So yea I didn't hate the ML, I quite enjoyed his personality actually, a good change from the usual cold MLs :)

    FL did all the work in this drama... I didn't really like the ML

    The romance was the weakest part but everything else was really good and enjoyable

  • Hello? It's Me!

    17. Hello? It's Me!

    Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes

    9.0

    A super funny drama.


    ML is literally the cutest thing ever ^-^
    I loved it a lot, especially the relationship between the two female protagonists. There were some VERY creative funny moments like the office dance routine and it was a breath of fresh air that there were basically no villains!
    That being said the last eps were unecessarily sad and emotional. It got from wanting to watch it right away to dreading starting it. They could keep the happy tone throughout the whole drama in my opinion.
    Also the romance wasn't developed that well...they could have done something better about this part as well.


    All in all this drama is a bittersweet memory
    I would rewatch only some funny clips

    BTS's 8th festa party yoohooo

    now that I'm writing this review I completely forgot about this one -OOP 

    But I do remember we had some really good TMI answers and a lot of going back and talking in depth about past memories. I do remember laughing a lot too. It must have been funny...hmm can't remember tho o_o

    I always enjoy BTS's company so of course I loved it

  • So I Married an Anti-Fan

    Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes

    9.0

    what I remember from this drama is that I really loved it at the beginning but I think the last eps where a little dissapointing

    It has everything I want in a rom-com, I love the enemies to lovers trope here and it's totally rewatchable

    7.5

    well...this takes me back cause I remember the time that I played the game that this drama is based on. It's an otome game in which you have to choose one of like 4 or 5 men. I remember how I used to watch a billion ads in order to buy clothes and win the game lol!

    But this drama I would say is worse than the game story wise...It's a little boring. I can't remember a lot from it but I guess it was still cute

    Thai Drama - 2021, 14 episodes

    9.5

    MY FIRST THAI DRAMA

    Started this on whim since I'm a sucker for a boss-secretary trope hehe. A lot of people hated it but honestly it was amazing for me. Don't know if it's because it was my first thai lol. The FL wasn't obnoxious and she wouldnt scream either, it had everything I want in a rom-com and the right amount of "drama" in it!

    The ML wasn't toxic either, no force kiss or anything like that^^

    MY FAVE short drama hehe

    good acting, exciting story and the best part...it was the right length. Not too long, not too rushed. The ML is an idol and inexperienced but I found him very cute, I didn't mind his acting ( plenty short dramas have average to bad acting anyways) Also it's a campus romance which is one of my fave tropesI would say more about my love for this drama but honestly...I don't remember much lol

  • 22 Flower Road

    Korean Drama - 2019, 12 episodes

    6.0

    I was about to say 'a  very good short drama'', but damnn I gave it a 6 o_0

    It's definitely cause this drama was longer than it needed to be...some short dramas are uneccessarily long and it did get quite boring. I also liked the SML more, so that's another minus oof. BUT it is a good drama, I love the cohabitation trope, the chemistry was nice and I really liked the ending

  • Step Dad On Paper

    9.5

    I love unique dramas and this is one of them. The theme about home was so heartwarming ^^It really makes you think about how important our homes are and appreciate what you have more

    The entire drama actually was very heartwarming and funny! All the couples in this drama had a great chemistry

    A lot of people hate the ending but idk I didnt mind it that much

  • My Little Princess

    33. My Little Princess

    Chinese Drama - 2016, 16 episodes

    8.5

    Never thought I would watch this drama

    Again, another drama this year that had everything I wanted in a rom-com. Not gonna lie I loved the love triangle in this hehehe but definitely the SML was better in terms of chemistry. The ML was kinda boring but this is the only downside of this drama

    Best part is that this drama is only 16...an example other cdramas should follow as well:)

    PS: Another downside is the high freaking brightness...some cdramas gotta keep it down with the bright filters

  • Touch Me If You Can

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 32 episodes

    8.5

    I really liked this drama

    I especially liked the pace. Everything built up right so that I didn't feel bored throughout. I also enjoyed the game parts of the story, since they made it look interesting

    What I didnt like was the focus on ML's job...i'm sorry but nobody cares about his job as  an aerospace engineer -_- Everything about it was confusing and boring and I ended up skipping. I would love to see more of Dilraba's job as an actress...that would be interesting

    I just have this suspicion that everytime Yang Yang is the ML he just has to have the most screentime but this time his character was just too boring for him to have so much screentime

    WELL I'll talk about the hot topic in this show...Jessi and Lee sang yeob. Honestly I love sang yeob and I was so happy about his interactions with Jessi. Don't know if it was all fake but I LOVED them together, I was so freaking invested in their relationship. If it's a real interest I'm totally rooting for them

    I love the whole team and the theme of the show even though I would prefer if all eps where food themed cause I love food xD

    Such a unique drama

    The creator of the webtoon used all the  right symbolisms to describe the different ways that our minds work. I felt related and relieved seeing all those cells scenes, like I felt understood and not alone really T_T 

    This story in general will take you through all the steps of a relationship from the beginning of it to its ending and make u feel like you're the one experiencing it or at least relate to the FL a lot, since you're in Yumi's mind!

    LOVE IT!

    43. The Life of White Fox

    Chinese Drama - 2019, 24 episodes

    9.0

    a drama which focuses on action and fantasy even though I thought it was a rom-com

    You can tell it's low budget which makes it 100 times better cause I was really laughing sometimes during important scenes cause of the bad CGI, but I loved it. You can also tell that the writer and everyone else included put a lot of thought and care into the story and each character which is what matters!

    Korean TV Show - 2018, 8 episodes

    9.0

    [Spoilers]

    I really liked the cast, better than the 2nd season one. It felt fresh that you could tell it wasn't scripted...I watched the 1st ep and didn't like it, although I just kept craving for more. That said it's so addicting that I finished it in 2 days!

    Jiyeon was the best contestant in a dating show so far for me, she had a great personality and chemistry with everyone. She  stole the show for sure! BUT she was pretty mistreated -_- We could all see her amazing chemistry with Chaewoon, they definitely liked each other a lot. The bad part is that on one hand Cho im was in between them and wouldn't even let Jiyeon be in the same room as him without giving her a dirty look ( she was screaming toxic behavior if u ask me), and on the other hand Tae hwa had framed her as a money catcher so much so that the whole house didn't trust her. All that led to her leaving alone T_T If it wasn't for these two the actual couple of the season would be Jiyeon and Chaewoon and not Chaewoon and Cho im...from what I know they never really got together anyways and they probably parted their ways in a few months ( I wonder why...)

    Cho Im was pretty toxic and treated Chaewoon as her possession in a dating show that is recommended for contestants to meet everyone before choosing...like what?

    Anyways I was really dissapointed by the ending but gave it a 9 cause the show really is a great idea and Jiyeon and Chaewoon are now together, so I'm happy ^^

    Dating show~

    I'm glad this got a page on MDL cause I can feel somewhat accomplished for watching it by adding it on my completed list hehehe 

    ->Here comes my very unecessary analysis of a trashy(oops)/ gyilty pleasure dating show cause I've got time on my hands

    Biggest con 1#: they stayed on the villa for 5 days- 4 nights. Idk if it was cause the budget wasnt enough for more days but the time was definitely not enough. It could have been great though if they organized some amazing dates that would bring the participants even closer....but they really didnt

    2#: Nobody had chemistry...they just didn't much well. They would just sit around during the day and sleep at night. The dates were close to none

    3#: Once again most of the guys were the worst ever and didnt seem that they went there to find a serious relationship. Generally the whole thing was just an advertisement for Jella's makeup products which I'm not mad with

    4#: Wth was up with all the 18+ vibes the show was trying to pass even though the participants were not comfortable with each other to even hug, but I guess it was for the jokes and giggles ( the BDSM decorated room??!...oof...that's not it -_-)

    Anyways still had fun watching half of it... dating shows are my love and nemesis at the same time XD

    [Spoilers]

    Needed some more diversity in the cast...all of them were pretty and on a similar age...this season had a lot more twists cause you really couldn't tell who were the money and love catchers

    Chanwoo for real got on my nerver OMG...I really disliked him! He was toxic, childish, suffocating and many more -_- And at the end he was a freaking money  catcher that smirked all evil when he won...he was so weird omg. Really hope all of his personality in this was a role cause....

    A couple that is still together came out from this show which is really cute but I didn't ever care about them honestly :/
