WELCOME TO MY PROFILE

The moon is beautiful tonight, isn't it?

Big and dramatic C-drama lover (.づ◡﹏◡)づ.

In 2016, I was randomly going through my Netflix home page when I came across my very first Asian drama, little did I know how that would change my life. Suddenly, I got introduced to an entirely new world filled with astonishing and touching stories.

In the beginning, I would watch one or another day... but as time was passing, I got more and more fond of the dramas and their stories, I would laugh, cry, get excited, and mad, I was living the story with the characters. So eventually this "One or another day" hobby became an "everyday" one.

Dramas, especially Chinese ones, are now part of my daily life. So as long as I have spare time, I'll be enjoying my everyday dose of them.

嗨 | A little about me

My name is Anlly, I'm a native Spanish speaker, my second language is English (actually, I learned it thanks to dramas), and I'm currently studying Chinese to abandon subtitles.

I started seriously chasing dramas back in 2020 when the pandemic started. At first, I only watched modern dramas because I felt that costume ones were too angsty for my fragile heart. However, after watching One and Only, I entered a costume drama phase, so if you check what I'm currently watching or what I'm planning to watch, it will be mainly historical, xianxia, and wuxia dramas. I like it better because the characters are usually deeper and more complex than in modern ones, and I got a sea of different emotions.

I'm also a medical student, so I'm constantly fighting with myself whether to watch the most recent episode of my favorite drama or to study for my upcoming exam. Tough choices, you know? The first option usually wins over the second one, so in the aftermath, I have to pay the price of my choices by waking up really early to study ᵟຶᴖ ᵟຶ.

Dramas

About my ratings, I'm more a drama enthusiast than a critic. Though I'm considering updating all my ratings to what I feel each drama deserves, at the moment, if you check them and find a 10, it's because I genuinely liked and enjoyed the drama and thought it was really good; if it doesn't have a rating, it may be good, but it's just that I didn't connect as much with it as to give it a 10.

I appreciate all kinds of stuff in dramas but mainly life lessons, deep messages, heartfelt and intelligent characters with growth throughout the drama, balanced angst, excitement, bickering and humor, and healthy, understanding, and supportive relationships. So you'll see that many of my treasured favorite dramas fulfill the majority of these preferences:
