classic!! romcom

has lee dong wook.

female lead is fucking fantastic, you'll absolutely love her.

so much fun!!!!!!!

widows bay vibes- funny & spooky.

it's on bilibili (similar to dailymotion).

super FUN and FUNNY!!!!! had me laughing out loud which is rare...

stars the actor from g@me. age gap ship.

maybe reply 1994 coded too..

us coded.

super fun!!! goofy!!!

a delightful show...

has some of my favourite actors in it.

don't let the title scare you off, there is women in this show!!

love love love... stars my fave c actor tan jian ci and i love fl li landi too. romcom cdrama.

told you about this one.. lowkey beat out kairos for best show imo.

leans closer to melodrama- proper yearning, crazy interesting character/relationship dynamics. fl's brother murdered ml's sister. angst to say the least!

you know what's up.

I suggest you start it without telling me, so that way if you don't like it I will never have to know.

mystery thriller. lots of plot twists.

you got the initial rundown which neither of us remember... we'll see how it fares.

it may seem like a more serious cdrama on the surface but it can be quite goofy at times!

crazy classic... so interested on your potential thoughts.

toxic and soapy, melodrama.

told you about this!! has your guy from boy named flora a in it.

starts mid but fires up half way.

only 8 episodes!!

murder mystery.

fun fun.. fantasy romance, multiple ships.

fun!!!! it was between this and rookie historian when I wanted to rewatch something with you... I clearly made a mistake back then.

coffee prince adjacent! girl in an all guy setting, guys think she's a guy too. 

gong yoo gay panic and acceptance replicated.

disposable type of cdrama like go go squid where the plot is whatever but the leads are adorable. has esther from lgief!!

if you're in the mood for a cdrama romcom

hanin and I both liked this one!

short! interesting dynamics. explores past life and modern day similar to goblin.

fun soapy show, revenge plot.

surprisingly a good ship- toxic too.

chatted with you briefly about it back when I watched, tagged you in my edit.

short mystery with a cute ship, I edited it last year.

cute and healing .

deals with mental health issues.

bo young is phenomenal in it.

good ship.

medical drama

very romantic

I don't know how this one will fare with you... could be another regeneration situation.

I actually didn't really like the first half of this show. I was literally about to drop until the very last minute of episode 5 hooked me in. show took a crazy turn and I then got super invested.

broke my can only edit the same thing once rule- made 3 edits of my ship here!

it's a quirky investigation/mystery drama.

could compare to gold land in that the show itself is whatever, it's the ship that stands out.

li xian!!! romance king.

very atmospheric, not as bubbly and bright  as most cdramas.

last few episodes kind of fell off fyi.

hanin LOVED it too.

same writer as captivating the king!!!!

told you about this... you said you'd wait for my edit. edit never got made...

the ship was so great to me, literally one of the only kdramas I liked last year.

your gorgeous commission of this saved  my life.

it reminded me of teotfw if you ever watched that.

historical meteor garden essentially.

toxIC! abuSIVE!

I think you liked this actress in that bailu show i refuse to watch.

might surprise you! I expected it to be boring but it really hooked me in.

time travel romance.

mid but also compelling... you've seen my edits and the one I commissioned hanin to do lmfao

it's the ship and nam gyu ri's character that really make it worth it. the rest, especially the cop stuff, was annoying or boring. this is why fast forwarding can be beneficial in life.

I think you said you wanted to watch the uk version before this one but...

kind of messy plot but the characters are great.

toxic ship... [ SPOILER- he literally let her daughter be murdered. ]

cute side couple too.

fun and cute. I don't know the genre really but it's kinda like fight for my way in that it's like. street setting and regular people. goofy.

I do remember losing interest in the second half, it should have been shorter for sure. but if you watch at 2x speed maybe that won't be an issue for you.

(this is a rec more for you than me, idgaf about this show really. i just think it's something you would like).

grooming show I edited. super fun. started rewatching with hanin and it holds up.

over the top crazy revenge.

crazy and weird........

50/50 shot it lands the same as g@me did with you (yikes)

been like 8 years since I watched but. the ship was so buzzy to me at the time. I'd love to rewatch with you!

goated cast. really interesting ship imo. great chemistry. sad stuff.

if you do go for it rape tw for discussion only, idr if they show an actual scene.

another one that could land like g@me, we'll have to see!

li qin plays an ubon adjacent character. woman wronged. slow burn to get to that point, she's a sweet bubbly princess at first.

also stars shawn dou who i lloveeee though his character can really piss you off sometimes.

it's been so long since i watched but i remember liking it for the most part!

spooky/horror/mystery/romance

no comment. let's see how you feel.

this one. is one that definitely starts better than it ends. the lead couple loses me along the way, but the side couple kept hold of me strong. i even edited them. toxic. stalkery, lowkey abusive, etc....

goofy classic

chaotic

if you like it, there's a season 2!

I don't want to spoil it by saying why it's here, but I'll just say it's the one I said I was adding after your shadowhunters incest tweet.
