Sugar Crown

Aside from PTSD and severe childhood trauma I‘m wondering what mental illness he actually has 🤔

Interesting take on being in a drama slump.
I found myself in that puddle many times and instead of forcing myself to try kdramas again I switched to cdramas.
Now I‘m slowly coming back to kdramas and if anything I would recommend the following strong chemistry, low angst dramas, however coming out of a slump is something only works with a drama that scratches that itch for you ;)


- The Fabulous (fashion, city life romcom Netflix style)
- Hit The Spot (18+ cuz intimacy, focus on female pleasure but in a fun and
relatable way and has amazing chemistry)

happy ending but no kiss at the end :/

His voice is 🔥

Hella confusing for the first half but everyone is pretty (hot) so it’s alright 😆

Watched this right after "My Uncanny Destiny"… I was lowkey surprised/shocked by Yan Zi Xian‘s real voice in this drama :0 I thought he dubbed himself in MUD but apparently not :D ~ his voice is real cute and a lot softer than I expected 🥰

I‘d say the most kisses are in the middle of the drama. The last 4 episodes mostly only had kisses on the cheek

Thank you ~ and yes I‘ve seen It’s okay that’s love but it’s been a long time :0 … the plot twist is all I remember, haha.
Did you finish flower boy next door? I dipped out pretty early ~ wondering if it’s worth picking up again.

The writing of the romance in this drama is beyond beautiful. It has sooo many little realistic details that I never knew I missed <3
Highly recommend it.

Interesting to know- I wasn’t aware of the behind the scenes conflicts going on but I did always wonder why it was cut short.

I liked some of the patients stories and the brother but I have to admit that the main lead story was inconsistent at times regarding her diagnosis/symptoms and behavior.
You‘d think that in such a setting the plot would involve her doing therapy… 🥲

That drama would fit this list as well! Also it was very entertaining ~ I was making fan subs of the bts at the time and people really seemed to resonate with the mental health & treatment aspect :)

A drama about the making of webdramas ^^
The screenwriter was certainly going thru some inferior complex given some of the self deprecating lines against web drama writers 😆

I aspire to learn something from every drama as you seem to have. :)
'A Piece of Your Mind' was a really beautiful, slow watch :)

Most definitely. :)
It’s strangely contradicting and yet somewhat philosophical how a place where no physical healing takes place, the most mental healing is found.

Thank you for your positive feedback:)
And I absolutely agree, while I decided to only highlight dramas that do feature some sort of licensed therapist, there are probably more 'healing' dramas out there that don’t and it’s perfectly fine :)
I‘m looking forward to reading what kind of drama you benefited from the most ;)

I agree on that aspect. Romance and K-Dramas usually go hand in hand but in this case it would have been better if it didn’t have romance - or at least not between psychiatrist and patient.

Happy to know that the article might be helpful ~ now you can include dramas into study time :D

I still have the OST "romantic sunday" on my playlist :D - but I agree, it feels very calming and healing.

Thank you for your feedback 🙏🏼 ~ I hope we get to see even more emphasis on mental health and the treatment of mental problems in future dramas :)
I wonder, since you have experience working with mental patients, do you think the misrepresentation of mental illness in dramas has declined / improved? Once in a while I see a drama where I have to close all eyes and ears when I hear a so-called therapist say something unfitting.
