My first completed drama in 2026.

I’ll be honest. This is probably the best wuxia drama I’ve watched in years. It’s the type of wuxia dramas that I grew up watching.

There will be a 2nd season soon, right? ?

Edited: I’ve added a brief review:

I can never recommend this drama enough, if you’re into sci-fi and wuxia dramas. This is one of the best wuxia dramas I’ve watched in recent years. The plot is very clever, with no filler episodes, great acting from a less famous cast, and real martial arts. Highly recommended if you don’t mind low-budget shows

Happy Valentine’s Day with the last episode of a crime thriller series with my mom lol. I will probably write a longer review later. ?

The cinematography is so beautiful, and the acting is great. I also enjoyed the story in the first half, but the story went a bit downhill in the second half, especially in the last two episodes. I really like Kim Seon Ho’s acting and there are a few things in this drama that I relate to and really like. It has quite a unique concept from recent typical Korean rom-coms. Also, I work in a similar field with the male lead, so it’s great to see a drama about an interpreter that represents the job quite well. :)

Beautiful movie

Today marked the first Full Moon of the Year of the Fire Horse. This was a beautiful movie to watch during Full Moon. ?

Yes. They made such a beautiful bouquet that made me cry. It was a good cry.

Don’t mind my rating. I rated it for my younger teenage self. I feel so nostalgic with this movie.

An old friend from high school sent me some old pictures of myself yesterday. I remember that friend used to tell me I looked exactly like the female lead in this movie (she didn’t mean it in a good way lol), so I’ve always wanted to watch it. It’s a simple and lovely movie about friendship, high school life, and first crush. I enjoyed it a lot. I do see some parts of myself in the female lead. I may write something longer about it later. ☺️

Can’t believe I watched a vertical drama today. This is not something I often watch. I came across it on YouTube. It was ridiculous, as expected from a vertical drama, but it was quite fun.

Apr 1 

A ridiculous vertical drama with 2 veteran cast as side characters.

Apr 3

And Tokijiro later reincarnated as Miho's close friend in Otomen. ?

I picked this movie randomly today and loved it. I'm torn between 8.5 and 9. I may change my rating and write a review later. ^^

Apr 4

A heart-warming series. ❤️

April 7 ❤️

Short, simple, and soothing. A perfect drama for me. ❤️
Music and cooking is an absolutely perfect combo.

I kind of loved this movie. It’s weirdly romantic and realistic. The characters are not perfect and relatable. Excellent acting from the cast. Aoi Yu and Odagiri Joe’s performances have made this movie more special to me.

I have no bathtubs at home and there’s no public bathhouse in my place either. I feel like I’m missing something.

I watched this spin-off years after I first watched the drama. It’s pretty fun. I realize Jimi ni Sugoi was the first drama of Sugino Yosuke I’ve watched.

Kindaichi - The 3rd Film in the series of 5 Films about Detective Kindaichi Kōsuke in the 1970s directed by Ichikawa Kon and starring Ishizaka Koji as Kindaichi (Gokumon-to)

June 23

Great fights, great music, great brotherhood bonding, great visuals and acting, and great street vibe.

"No matter what you do, even if the whole world is against you, nothing about this town and us will change."

June 26

This is a short web drama created to advertise new bank services back then, I guess. The plot is meh and full of cliché, as expected. But I love Kai and Eun Bin.

A great recap of season 1 of the series

June 30

I almost threw up for real. This is a low-budget horror short film with very cheap CGI, but it’s a pretty good one.

July 5

Kindaichi - The 5th Film, also the last film in the series about Detective Kindaichi Kōsuke in the 1970s directed by Ichikawa Kon and starring Ishizaka Koji as Kindaichi)

So far it's the saddest one

After this movie, I would say I love Amamiya Brothers. Hope to see more of them in the next movies.

July 8

The S.W.O.R.D alliance has been formed.

By the way, most of the characters’ hairstyles have changed lol.

July 10

The ending is pretty predictable but I love every character in the S.W.O.R.D gangs, Mugen, and Amamiya Brothers, and love how they teamed up in the final battle against the big villains, even though they all had conflicts with each other in the beginning. 

And I felt so bad for Smoky…

July 11

A SP Drama about the comedic trio Dan, Tetsu, Chiharu.

It’s so dumb but it’s a pretty fun spin-off.

July 12

I loved this spin-off movie more than I had expected. Such a fun and sweet adventure from the DTC trio.

July 12

After watching this spin-off, I still dislike these lame dudes. I had no idea why they added them to the High & Low Saga with so much screen time. Their backstories are so boring and lame, if you can even call them backstories.

Logic is not necessary in Stephan Chow’s films. This is hilarious. I had a good laugh. It’s what I need at the moment.
It’s been a long time since I saw Zhao Wei in films. 2000s was really her golden era.

As a horror movie, is it scary? Not really.

Is it a good movie? Yeah. I think so. I pretty liked it.

I'm confused about the new young police character. Is he the same person as the mysterious guy with his iconic lines "don't underestimate life"?

The stories didn’t touch me as much as the previous seasons, but overall it’s still a nice watch. There are some episodes that I really enjoyed.
