Help Me Choose: Must Watch in 2024
A significant part of my PTW list is made of dramas that have sat there since perhaps my early day of MDL. Due to various reasons, I have not picked them up yet. But since I was able to watch some of my most procrastination-affected shows this year and enjoyed the experience, I decided to compile some of the dramas that have been on my PTW for the longest into a voting list! The top 6 that your guys' votes create will be must watch for me in 2024.
Voting is open until December 30.
