    My 2nd asian drama after ohshc live action. Thank u dramacrazy for keeping it as your highest rated series which made me experience this beauty  so early in my drama watching experience. I'm always a sucker for sad, full of feels drama & this is surely the queen of 'tears' drama. I can't express how I feel about this drama & how it impacted my life. Just something I can't forget in my life.

    My 3rd asian drama. Again grateful to dramacrazy which had this #2 for most popular list in their homepage. It's stupid, apeshit crazy & literally just anything was happening there but this is the funniest series I've ever experienced & rewatched it multiple times. It just never loses its charm. The actors?, so many great actors in one series. ofc it'll turn into a masterpiece which can't be replicated no matter how many remakes are made.

    Always in my top 10 kdramas but as I've grown old it feels even more personal, so I needed to update the ranking. Very few kdramas that I find perfect from very angle. This is one of those. Misaeng is PERFECTION. It's impossible to find fault in it.

    ahh..With my bad memory I can't be rational. I just rate everything on how it made me feel & how long I can remember that feeling. & this is definitely a drama that made me full. I've never experienced an ending that didn't make me scream at the writers to do more or do less. It just felt so right. I'm sure it'll grow on me even more with time.

    One more fav solely based on how it made me feel. The nature, the nostalgia, the music, the small town that reminds me of my home or the fact that I watched this when I was going to leave my countryside town. I used to draw on eggs after this drama?. It has stayed with me for so long & will most probably always stand strong in my fav dramas. Started supporting Kwak Dong yeon like crazy after this drama. Rooting for him to get that one lead role that'll make him explode because he deserves it

    again a fav because of damn those feels & memories. Thanks to Amanda of outside seoul who loved this drama so much to make non stop blog posts just dedicated to this. People rave about reply 1988 or other tvn shows but all these shows wouldn't even exist if not for this. The buzz it created when it came out was unreal. Nobody used to watch tvn & finding subbed ver was sooo hard. I think it's a very important drama in kdrama history. I related so much even as a non kpop fan back then & I can understand Shi won even better now because of being an ARMY. My fav Reply series. Perfect length, actors, ost by lead actors, casting, ending. This is the drama that changed the way I looked & expected kdramas to be.

    heard so much praise about Hong sisters & then I found out that this was original drama from which a popular Hindi song was plagiarised. So I gave it a shot & it quickly became one of my most fav drama in the long run. It has its flaws & is not perfect in any way but for some reason I feel so bonded with the characters. And the classic Hong sister humour is just?. The OST..omg? easily among my top3 kdrama ost album. It's one of those dramas I rewatch when I don't know what to watch next.

    I love sageuks now but was really scared at beginning to try historical dramas. With much fear & taking multiple suggestions I dived into my first sageuk. And I totally loved it. Yoo Ah in & Song Joong ki totally stole the show. Yoo Ah in is just too sexy.  Y'know people say second lead is for the audience, this was the first time I had a crush on a drama actor & that too a second lead.

    I've very conflicting feelings towards this if I think rationally but since I'm emotional fool,I'll throw reasoning out the window. The pacing made me drop this once but picked it up after hearing so much praises & I'm glad I did so. the actors are so high class today. The songs?? I still have the diary where I used to write its songs. This drama is just pure love.

    CLASSIC.. It's perfect. I feel too small to even attempt to describe the its greatness. I love to listen its instrumentals.

    It feels like spring breeze. One more of those rare 'perfect from every angle' kinda kdramas. It is so relaxing but at the same time they had a real mystery holding pretty nicely, not just another stupid scare to add excitement to a slow slice of life drama.  I really adored Gong Hyo jin's character & the way she was written, soft girl but strong & dealing with her problems on her own. She's the girl crush without the 'bitch boss' girl crush concept.

    This was the era when I was obsessed with drambeans & read every single recap in their archive. Thankfully I read this recap of the drama of no name actors which was a surprise hit for everybody that year. A few years later I decided to finally watch it & enjoyed even more eventhough I already knew story of every episode. This has happened to me only with Misaeng. Marraige not dating is the perfect romcom genre.

    My 1st irl friend, who shared this hallyu fever with me when kdramas weren't mainstream, gave me this drama to watch, Absolutly loved it, both seasons. Her recommendations were always another level. Had the falcon icon as my profile pic everywhere for a year, I think.

    Too close to personal experience. The romantic angle sucked but the school was what Japanese school stories does the best, make you feel like schools are the best place on earth & the possibilities in this world is endless. The positivity wine I liked when I drank it back then. Not sure if my feelings are same now.
