Dramas that have a special place in my heart

These dramas are ones that have a special place in my heart (BUT ARE NOT MY FAVORITES). They are far from perfect and unfortunately, that is why they are not in my favorites list.

They are mostly for nostalgia or touched an extra special place in me. Some are also kind of a guilty pleasure ;))

    Perhaps it's because of nostalgia... this drama is my first kdrama ever... and it got me hooked! It was about middle schoolers, which I was at the time I watched it, and it tried to teach some lessons to its audience. I also loved the cast.

    Mainly nostalgia tbh... This drama was also one of the drama that got me into watching kdramas. It had immense potential though, but ended up being so lackluster and kinda bad.. If they gave more good and clear background and plot progression/journey, then this drama could have turned out good...This drama made me fall in love with Lee Hyun Woo. He looks especially good with his silver hair in the first half of this drama! I also loved the bromance, but I really wish there was a lot more of it. It got ruined by the love triangle...

    Classic time travel plot but with Kim Sae Ron and a boy group (Astro). Again, nostalgia lol. It also introduced me to Astro (although I don't really listen to them). It wasn't amazing, but it was okay. I decently enjoyed it and had a fun ride.

    Ugh, still to this day, this drama has a hold on me. I'm kinda frustrated with it... The writers ruined its potential... I remember being so intrigued by the drama and enjoying it a lot! But after about halfway through, it started to go downhill. Mostly, again nostalgia. But also I really loved that first half of the drama...

    Honestly, I love the cast, characters, character relationships and chemistry, ost, and cinematography for this drama so much!! Dong Mae and Hui Seong have a special place in my heart. I adore them so much! Also, Yoo Yeon Seok as Dong Mae is just absolutely amazing! I can't describe how much I love him and his acting in the role!! Probably one of my favs ever!! For the writing for this drama, some of it could have been better, but overall I appreciate it, the art, and symbolism is portraying and expressing  the difficult times of korea and its people while it was under japanese rule and when there were war and rebellions and struggle.

    Generally, it's an okay simple webdrama, definitely the best out of all the seasons. I mainly love it for Park Ha Neul and Seo Jimin! There romance development is top teir!! I absolutely loved it so much! I just wish they could have shown more of their relationship and maybe had another season... (I know Dear M exists but I don't think I'll ever watch it because their relationship seems a bit different from Love Playlist.)

    Don't really like the drama that much as a whole, but still like some aspects to it. I mostly loved Nam Sun Ho! I honestly wanted the drama centered around him lol.. loved some of the ost too

  • Our Beloved Summer

    10. Our Beloved Summer

    Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes

    The drama has its issues but the VIBES! Idk how to describe it.. It's like a chill and breezy summer vibes but also wintery vibes (maybe because it aired during winter time?). I enjoy the chaotic nature between the main leads lol. I enjoyed seeing them bicker and go from hating to loving each other

    Not a mindblowing time travel story, but one I truly enjoyed a lot. It's not perfect but it has a special place in my heart lol. I had fun seeing Jin Ki Joo portray Baek Yoon Young in this drama, and it made me fall in love with her again! The romance between the leads was kinda awkward and random but I still kinda liked it

    Had potential; could have been better. I love main leads' romance. Also love second couple. I would've loved to see more of them playing badminton, being on a team, competing, and bickering lol...

    Typical weekend family drama...

    loved the main lead couple and how they stay committed, honest, and trusting with each other. Also loved most of the other couples (besides the one with the stalker). Loved the portrayal of divorce and mental health as well as someone trying to change for the better.

    this drama was pretty messy and kinda not that well written tbh, but I still enjoyed it! I loved the leads and had a lot of fun watching the drama! If it had been written better, it could have become one of my favs..
