  • The K2

    1. The K2

    Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes

    8.5

    action | thriller | psychological | romance — 16 eps – 8.5/10

    The K2 was the first kdrama I ever watched, and it will forever hold a special place in my heart. JCW's portrayal of Je Ha was exquisite... both his emotional and action scenes were breathtaking. The FL was bland af in my opinion (he had better chem with Yoo Jin, and everyone knows it lmao), but the plot was intriguing, love story was sweet enough, and JCW knows how to pair charisma and vulnerability with a raw, sexy edge in a way that is undeniably captivating.

  • Strong Woman Do Bong Soon

    2. Strong Woman Do Bong Soon

    Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes

    9.0

    action | comedy | romance | supernatural — 16 eps — 9/10

    One of my all-time favourites, tbh. Park Hyung Sik & Park Bo Young were brilliant as the MC — their chemistry, acting and vibrant charisma (both together and apart) made this show absolutely iconic. 

    Also, Min Hyuk is the new standard... he is the ultimate Soft Boy and puppy ML ;;_____;;

  • The Whirlwind Girl Season 2

    3. The Whirlwind Girl Season 2

    Chinese Drama - 2016, 36 episodes

    7.5

    action | romance | martial arts | sports —36 eps — 7.5/10

    Watched for JCW and JCW alone. Lol.

  • The Mind Game

    4. The Mind Game

    Thai Drama - 2021, 11 episodes

    6.5

    action | romance | crime | supernatural —11 eps — 6.5/10

    I skimmed this one... didn't watch every episode super closely. It's decent. Nothing extraordinary, but the acting was okay. I always enjoy watching Bank, but I've definitely seen better performances from him. This plot didn't bring out the best in anyone, tbh. (I think this was the first Thai drama I watched.)

  • Love in Contract

    5. Love in Contract

    Korean Drama - 2022, 16 episodes

    7.5

    business | comedy | romance — 16 eps — 7.5/10

    My autistic/neurodivergent heart was immediately drawn to Ji-ho (who shows all signs of autism/neurodivergence imho). The story was medicore (and predictable) at times, but I enjoyed the acting, romance, and humor.

  • Suspicious Partner

    6. Suspicious Partner

    Korean Drama - 2017, 40 episodes

    8.0

    thriller | comedy | law | romance — 20 eps — 8/10

    The pacing was painful at times and I was disappointed that the romance took a back burner more often than not, but still an enjoyable watch. (Like so many dramas, it could've been shorter.) I'll always watch forJCW, though. ♥

  • New Life Begins

    7. New Life Begins

    Chinese Drama - 2022, 40 episodes

    9.5

    historical | comedy | romance | life | political — 40 eps — 9.5/10

    Something about this show stole my whole heart. The pacing was perfect, romance a bit slow at times but absolutely delightful, and the friendships? TOP TIER. My first cdrama... and the one that got me interested in historical/wuxia cdramas. :') Honestly, I'll probably watch this one again.

  • Fuujinshi

    8. Fuujinshi

    Japanese Drama - 2022, 9 episodes

    8.0

    action | mystery | fantasy — 9 eps —8/10

    A unique and gritty plot with stellar acting, great special effects, and a satisfying ending.

  • Final Life

    9. Final Life

    Japanese Drama - 2017, 12 episodes

    6.0

    action | thriller | mystery | psychological — 12 eps — 6/10

    Messy and disjointed, this show had a lot of potential but suffered from poor direction and a listless plot. The cast did a decent job with what they had to work with, but unfortunately, it wasn't enough to make up for the other glaring (and I mean that literally iykyk) shortcomings.

  • Perfect World

    10. Perfect World

    Japanese Drama - 2019, 10 episodes

    8.0

    romance | life | drama — 10 eps — 8/10

    Raw, honest and genuine, this drama was so bittersweet and wholesome. It doesn't shy away from the harsh reality many people with physical disabilities face daily, and highlighted many things that others may take for granted. I'm a huge fan of Matsuzaka Tori, and he did an excellent job portraying Itsuki – all his difficulties and struggles, as well as his relentless optimism and perseverance.


  • Junkyouju Takatsuki Akira no Suisatsu

    11. Junkyouju Takatsuki Akira no Suisatsu

    Japanese Drama - 2021, 8 episodes

    8.5

    mystery | youth | supernatural | friendship | found family — 8 eps — completed — 8.5/10

    Such a unique little gem of a show! A delightful mix of the oddity of Sherlock Holmes and the magic of Harry Potter. Loved the bromance/friendship/found family vibes, and the "cases" were intriguing with lots of Japanese history/superstition without being overly creepy. 

  • A Familiar Stranger

    12. A Familiar Stranger

    Chinese Drama - 2022, 18 episodes

    8.0

    historical | romance | supernatural | body swap — 18 eps (miniseries) — completed — 8/10

    A delightful little series! Fantastic acting from the entire cast, an intriguing (if simple) storyline, great chem between the MC, and a satisfactory ending.
