1. Spirit Fingers
Korean Drama - 2025, 12 episodes
- my first drama of the year! watched this bc i kept on seeing kijeong & uyeon on my fyp
- wholesome show about friendship, love, and following your dreams! this show means so much to me i even dedicated a journal spread for my spifing family
- production team did an amazing job adapting the best scenes from the webtoon, i also think this is one of the greatest webtoon adaptations out there
- all the couples are *chefs kiss* (annnnd sera and taeseon my babies)
- ost is also goooood and so nice to listen to hype up the day!
- just like baeblue, may i also find my unique life color! ☘️

2. Twinkling Watermelon
Korean Drama - 2023, 16 episodes
"You can never get back your youth. Let yourself twinkle while you can. Do things that make your heart flutter."
- after spifing i finally gave this show a watch since i've been hearing about it since its release... and i am so glad i did (as a sucker for youth dramas)
- watched for choi hyunwook, stayed for watermelon sugar family
- i actually binged this for 16h straight bc of how good it is
- i cried every episode (not exaggerating) some scenes hit a little too close to home
- my cheongchan you deserve the world :')
- definitely one of the best shows out there, cheers to a twinkling youth!

3. My Perfect Stranger
Korean Drama - 2023, 16 episodes
"When you’re scared and lonely, close your eyes and imagine a small door. I’ll always wait for you behind that door. You just have to open it.”
- i watched this so i can move on from twinkling watermelon, i didn't realize i was in for a "darker" ver of twiwa instead ?
- a show where you'll suspect everyone is the killer...
- jin ji koo still looks as young as ever! she's so cute
- soonae & heeseob were so cute in this oh my my two little lovebirds
- i felt that the ending was a bit too rushed, i wish we got more background about the killer, and scenes of the side characters (detective, ko misook) when the timeline shifted back to 2023
- few plotholes but i didn't really mind them, still a good show overall (i definitely missed watching mystery dramas)
-
4. Love Untangled
Korean Movie - 2025
- all my besties are in here (shin eunsoo, cha woomin, gong myung)
- super cute and easy to watch romcom movie
- i could totally relate to the fl as someone with wavy hair lol
- i was so scared we might get a 20th century girl ending..... but i'm glad we got the perfect ending the leads deserved!
- everything about this movie screams summer first love
-
5. Even if This Love Disappears Tonight
Korean Movie - 2025
- i've been meaning to watch this ever since i saw the trailer on youtube and it didn't disappoint... just left me in shambles T_T
- i didn't read the synopsis prior to watching so i was so shocked at the ending :(
- the anterograde amnesia plot reminded me of the og fanfics i've read in middle school *ehem* anterograde tomorrow
- "i'll make tomorrow-you happy too"
- they used my favorite song from nerd connection! now i could no longer listen to good night good dream the same way
-
6. The Art of Sarah
Korean Drama - 2026, 8 episodes
“If you can’t tell the fake from the real, is it really fake?”
- finished this quickly bc i can’t handle a cliffhanger episode
- reminded me of celebrity in terms of the theme (eat the rich!)
- shin hyesun acted so good in this?? and the tension between her lee junhyuk?? give them an adult romcom rn… also props to kim jaewon he looked so fine in this
- every ep got me questioning my identity as well like who is sarah kim maybe i am sarah kim??
- a good crime-mystery drama that is easy to binge, every ep had me on the edge of my seat
-
7. Study Group
Korean Drama - 2025, 10 episodes
- started doing cardio because of this show, and this has slowly became my workout drama ? (every 40 mins felt too fast)
- gave it a 10 from the very beginning and it did not disappoint!
- solid intro and outro (i love the ost so much no skip bangers)
- the fight scenes are crazyyyyyy
- will miss the study group squad so much and the side characters
- all my faves are in here i can’t wait for season 2!
- i resonated so much with gamin “my dream? is it always decided? it might sound difficult now but you can achieve it if you try till the end. isn’t that what dreams are about?
-
8. To My Beloved Thief
Korean Drama - 2026, 16 episodes
“Hello, my dream, my savior and my lover, my beloved thief.”
- my first ongoing drama this year and one of the dramas i’m looking forward to watching every weekend
- i rarely finish a historical drama but the pacing of this got me seated every week
- i couldn’t stress how beautiful this drama is from the cinematography, ost, scriptwriting and the characters brought to life by amazing casts
- so underrated! this drama deserves a rating higher than 8.2, she’s a 10 for me!!!
- eunjo is such an amazing character i love how they didn’t change her empowering and upright personality after meeting yiyeol, both eunjoyeol complement each other so well
