2013 Releases

1. Arrows on the Bowstring
Chinese Drama - 2013, 42 episodes
I really liked it. The ending though... it makes sense but damn. I feel played. Deffo recommend it though :). Go watch it if you like action and dramas playing during the Sino-Japanese War. It is different to other dramas playing during that period.

2. Cruel City
Korean Drama - 2013, 20 episodes
A good undercover drama. Really enjoyed it; however, the ending was a circus. Not what I expected. While the drama was serious before, I laughed through the end and then cried. Literally a circus. Go watch it but maybe ignore the end. It is still good though. That's why I gave it 8.5/10 stars.

9. Medical Top Team
Korean Drama - 2013, 20 episodes
I rate this a 7.5/10 due to small issues throughout this drama. Nonetheless, I really enjoyed this drama and how it was produced (even the second half that many criticised). I actually do not understand all the criticism on the drama's page. Therefore, I recommend this drama if you like medical dramas with some hospital politics. The actors were great as well! I like the main and secondary couple and how different issues were approached. Despite a medium rating, you should deffo watch it if you like the genre. Ignore the negative comments and form your own opinion! I truly like this drama!

10. My Love from the Star
Korean Drama - 2013, 21 episodes
Watched it a long time ago (writing this in Feb 2024; watched it in 2013). I remember that I found it a bit weird, it was one of the first kdramas, I think the 2nd, that I have ever watched. So different from the American crime shows. Anyways, I can still recommend it. Maybe I will rewatch it at some point. If you like fantasy, this is a classic, that should deffo be watched.

11. Secret
Korean Drama - 2013, 16 episodes
Suuuuper toxic! Red flag ML and naive, weak FL, infuriating SML. Still, I love it. I usually hate purely toxic dramas, but this is my first Kdrama ever. I love it and watched it several times. You should watch it if you like a toxic ML and very melodramatic dramas.

Korean Drama - 2013, 12 episodes
Available online. Season 1 seems nice, so let's also watch season 2.
-
13. The Heirs
Korean Drama - 2013, 20 episodes
A classic. It has been a while since I have watched it. Rich ML, poor FL and the typical rich SFL. In my opinion, it is not the best out there but still decent.
