I started The Story of Pearl Girl some time ago and got up to EP 16, and then stalled for weeks. I tried to continue watching but it's not working out. I think it's a well-made drama and a great story, but it's too heavy and serious for my mental state rn. I have it on hold for the time-being.
Now that the winter season is here (and shorter days), I have to deal with a mild case of SAD, not to mention the holiday blues.
So I watched Nancheng Banquet and I enjoyed it so much. It has a great balance of comedy, romance, and action, all rolled into a decent story, and not too serious. It's not a masterpiece, but for me it was the perfect choice. I'd like to find more dramas like that.
If anyone can rec similar dramas I'd be more than thrilled! I'll take modern dramas too. Whatever I need to get through the season! <3
