Comments: very cute drama. the female lead needs better clothes. hope to see the male lead be in different dramas and characters.

Status: completed

Comments: story that that told in a very digestible and easy to follow fashion. i was definitely attached to all the characters at the end. filled my craving to see janice wu in the drama.

Status: completed

Comments: watched it because of kim nam gil. hate that it has a season 2, I don't think the romance is necessary. i think that they have to develop the female characters better, especially seohyun, fan of her since snsd days but still haven't found a break in her acting career. its not easy to mess up her visuals but they did.

Comments: just a typical weekend makjang drama. but the chemistry between the leads is budding up. but most characters are so annoying.

Status: dropped

Comments: really did not want to, but the slow burn was too slow, I was up to the 20s in episode but struggled to continue to watch. but the advertisement of how great the firefighters are (not saying that they are not), compared to fireworks of my heart, they are not that overdramatic.

Comments: i was so excited, since i watched the anime, but the sub rate and i completely forgot about this drama

Status: completed

Comments: found it a compelling adulting story, with hints of nostalgia and portrayed the tendencies of the youth really well (even if i'm not form that era). 

Status: dropped

Comments: i wish i could watch it, but the subs sucked when i checked it out. i could get the gist of what is going on, but i needed proper subs to fully immerse myself.

Status: completed

Comments: it was a confusing watch with so many complicated explanations for everything. i know it is an ensemble drama for the young actors,  but typically would have a "main character" that moves the story, but was confused because hu zi has the main character that the drama revolves around, but i felt they were pushing zhang ling he' character instead. and man, no more fake death or death then immediate resurrections, it won't make me cry! and i feel like everything had a complicated backstory but very premature.

Comments: i really wanted to love it. but unfortunately the interesting elements of the show (the spell book) weren't utilized that much in the later episodes. the jo bo ah's character made some stupid decisions, the side characters (especially the office co workers) were so mean and unnecessary to the plot. there were just so many unfinished and undeveloped ideas. the only enjoyable thing was the chemistry between the leads.

Comments: it's cute, it's okay. hate the orangey yellow filter/aesthetic they have.

Status: completed

Comments: i really enjoyed the drama, expect the last confrontational scene and the police work, but the chemistry between the two leads are top tier. the ending was confusing.

Status: currently watching

Comments: much, much, much, more depressing and tragic than part 1. but love it. the acting is a 100.

Status: completed

Comments: really short mystery, crime, thriller. good acting, good pace, love the theme and the story they wanted to tell. it can get confusing when you won't pay attention.

Status: completed

Comments: very cute, typical historical romcom with domestic  family problems. found the female lead very cute even without the thick make up, and joseph zheng is slowly becoming my number one chinese leading actors.

Status: dropped

Comments: as much as i love the leads, the story did not engage me that much and the chemistry was barely there for me.

Status: on hold

Comments: would normally love it, but not currently in the mood...

Status: currently watching

Comments: just love the slice of life element of the drama

Status: completed

Comments: great aesthetic, great color schemes. it felt genuine of suzy's part. i just felt that the actors are acting. lee jin wook is handsome as fuck.

Status: currently watching

Comments: still forming my opinions, i want to like it, but i just don't feel the story is flowing as naturally. 

Status: re watched (completed)

Comments: this drama just popped up un my head and decided to re watch it. i really enjoyed it and there is a sense of maturity the drama has even though the main leads are so petty towards each other. and the decision to get back together made sense despite all they went though.

Status: currently watching

Comments: it had a very dark start. i was very worried that it was going to have a very ridiculous reason on how the female lead ended up in the island alone and survive for 15 years, but it's really not bad. park eun bin, lets go!!!

Status: currently watching

Comments: it has a cheap production quality and you can smell it by how hard they try to make it look expensive. and most people here are from love: marriage and divorce, and you guys know how much i love that drama. do d and c players in the industry star in it expect the veteran actors and the acting is really shaky. but for what it's work its entertaining. 

Status: currently watching

Comments: cute and funny, looking forward to how its going to unfold.

Status: completed

Comments: wanted to watch it for a long time but couldn't bring myself to. it had good reviews i was afraid to not like it that much. i ended up loving it.  well written, well acted and very good chemistry. i wanted them to be together desperately.
