2024 52 Weeks Drama Challenge

Dec 31, 2023 03:33 pm

The same as usual.

This is not a competition or anything. It's more like a list of dramas/movies you've seen in 2024 divided into months/weeks. Just for you to keep a better track of those. Often the goal is to watch 52 dramas per year but no one will judge you for watching 12 dramas in a year or 1000 dramas in a year (if that even is possible?).

Because these questions are often asked, I'll answer them here:

"Can I count rewatched dramas?"

"What about a drama I started 4 years ago and never finished but decided to finish it now?"

Yes, you can count ANYTHING you FINISH during the year 2024 as long as it falls under the titles that are & will be on MDL during 2024.
