ABOUT ME

- Millenial
- Cancer (do I believe in astrology? not really)
- INTJ-A (do I believe in MBTI? so-so)
- Nerdy and (mostly) organized
- I enjoy exchanging opinions and constructive discussions; it's fine if we disagree as long as we keep it civil (check out friend request policy below)

DRAMAWORLD EXPERIENCE

- started watching Asian dramas in 2017, Korean first and slowly included Chinese, Taiwanese, Japanese and Thai; currently I'm mostly watching Chinese and Japanese dramas because they fit my mood at the moment
- first drama: Stranger (I fell in love with Asian cinema and never looked back)
- first movie: The Handmaiden (it was a bit shocking, not gonna lie)

Favorite genres: Mystery Supernatural Fantasy	Least favorite genres: Horror Political
Preferred in dramas: Romance Well written ending (preferably happy)	To avoid if possible: Corruption Bullying Dead fish kisses

- story is more important that genre (I can watch almost anything as long as it has an interesting plot)
- something between plan watcher and mood watcher (not having any kind of plan often throws me into a drama slump)
- almost never rewatching dramas (unless I don't feel like watching anything new and nostalgia hits me)
- suffering from NDD (my Dropped list is just the second level of On Hold, I will complete those dramas eventually because I hate unfinished business)
- never suffering from SLS (I sympathize with those poor guys but I'm not investing myself emotionally for nothing)
- usually put off by the hype around dramas (I don't trust the ratings very much)

FRIEND REQUEST POLICY

Feel free to send me a friend request. I mostly interact in Feeds and comment sections, but I'm not against messages. I might not reply immediately though, in case I haven't seen the message or I need time to write a proper reply or I have disappeared from MDL for some time - so don't think I'm ignoring you. If you receive a friend request from me, it means we previously had interesting interactions and/or I like your posts and comments. I'm a bit socially awkward but nice and peaceful person who doesn't bite unless really provoked.

RATING SYSTEM
Rating reflects my overall feeling about a drama/movie. I rate based on enjoyment but try to be as objective is possible. I tend to look for positive sides first when forming an opinion. In some cases I might give a slightly higher or lower rating if I particularly liked or disliked something. I never give ratings lower than 5 in appreciation of efforts of everyone involved in making of a drama/movie. Anything I rated below 7 - wouldn't really recommend.
RATING CRITERIA
PRIMARY	Story Acting Execution of the plot
SECONDARY	Cinematography Music
IRRELEVANT	Rewatch value My preference for actors

RATING SCALE
10	Amazing, might have flaws but they can be overlooked
9.0 - 9.5	Excellent but there are certain flaws bothering me
8.0 - 8.5	Very good
7.0 - 7.5	Ok, average
6.0 - 6.5	Watchable with some positive aspects
5.0 - 5.5	Waste of time

"Dramas are like people - imperfect. They always have flaws, but when we love them, those flaws are irrelevant. Rating a drama 10 - it's love."
