October 2023 Releases

Netflix. Seems like a fun drama.

Available online. I am intrigued.

I quite liked this drama. While the FL could have been more intelligent every now and then I kept rooting for her. Honestly though, if I was any of the other characters not knowing that they are pies, I would be so damn annoyed by them. And they are indeed dodgy for everyone who knows that they are spies. But I absolutely love the main leads and their development. It's a fun spy drama that I recommend to people who like Chinese Republican Dramas and some spy content.

Viki. The first part is on my list, so here we go.

Such a damn good drama. If you like revenge dramas, go watch this one!! I love the ML and the FL was quite realistic, in my opinion. She was suddenly thrown back in time and tried her best to survive and to take revenge on everyone who wronged her. I really enjoyed watching this drama and was impatiently waiting for new episodes to air. 12 episodes is also a perfect length for this drama as it managed to keep its quality and drive constant. Now, go give it a try!

Viki. Short drama. Seems interesting.

Available online. The prior two seasons are on my watchlist, so here we go.

Available online. Filler drama.

Well, it's a very short drama so obviously a story can't develop as well as a 24 ep à 40 min story can. Nonetheless, it was enjoyable to watch. The chemistry between the leads was sizzling. I liked the revenge and the FL was really well written. HOWEVER, I am a bit disappointed in ML's behaviour in one of the later eps. If you have watched it, you will know which scene I mean. So, I reckon you should not watch this when you are a bit sensible about violence against women (not just that scene specifically but several ones throughout this drama). I would still recommend this drama as it is quite enjoyable and well-done. It might be lacking when compared to a longer drama with a higher budget, but I will rate this for what it is: a short low-budget drama. A well-deserved 7.5/10.
