Another Round?
/ Actual Rating: 5/10/- Another round filled with a mid plot of trigger warnings and misconception of horror and thriller.
/- Another of those storylines where highschoolers/youngsters are better medium of getting killed off with gore and violence. Do KR writers really like to stay put in this trope of young people killing each other off? Can't they think of a better approach other than violence in the said age range? Bullying must have been a really big issue in KR, indeed.
/- Regardless, I still think I'm not yet ready for further school dramas since my Duty After School Part 2 experience happened.

3) 나는 너무 좋아한닥고 노래.
4) 긋 긋 긋!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5) And then again, Netflix app doesn't allow screenshots (idk if it's only on mobile or my phone alone).

Nothing fancy about Fantasy but it has the right amount of plot filling in it
#MyRoommateisaGumiho (간 떨어지는 동거) Review:/- Actual Rating: 8/10
/- I had a peculiar impression of the conflicts that happened here. The way it felt was like every twist in the story was structured and placed for it to look like an engagement of sorts to destiny and how we control our lives around it. To be honest, I was more inclined to Hye Sun's story/atmosphere. I liked her parts more than the actual leads here.
/- But, overall, I enjoyed most of the fun parts since the acting really looked natural and funny at the same time. Enjoyed much of the episodes!

Karmic events will always lead to a mouthful of regrets?
/ Actual Rating: 7/10/- I watched because of Ok Taec Yeon since the last show of him that I had was Bring It On, Ghost! which was before his military enlistment. He never fails to carry a drama.
/- This was not so bad. It had the action at the first phase of its episodes. But then, it came to me as the pace fell off and it was quite predictable to me. It is somewhat predictable in a way that I won't mind that it was necessary for a show to get read that way.
/- After all, good/bad karma begets the one who deserves to have it more. The message was clear in the ending of the show.

Not just for Cat People but it is a tribute to pet owners alike
/ Actual Rating: Could be an 8/8.5/10/- First of all, I have to praise the color grading they used for the skybox shading and the cinematography for some of the scenes that attract me as I appreciate this wonderful piece of a gem. It's just an eye candy and appealing to me.
/- I didn't know this was aired before Shin Ye Eun's More Than Friends, her role here seemed so free from the latter. I liked it a lot. However, the misunderstanding cloak to her character was evidently shown on both dramas. But this one's much better. Props to her!
/- I enjoyed it a lot knowing one of the directors was the one who directed Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol. It's highly an energetic, feel-good, and playful with my experience with 30-minute/24 part or more dramas. Loved it to bits!
/- Lastly, I enjoyed it more as a cat person.

If conforming to madness is a way to achieve happiness, you can give this a try.
/ Actual Rating: 7.5/10/- I find it a long drag determining the turn of events between the chaos and the development of the characters during their lockdown. The writers probably cannot figure out where they will put the plot twists especially with the "psychopath stereotype" fiasco it had at the latter part of the show. I seemingly thought I will have the suspense of what I had with Money Heist Korea (might just be the intro similarities).
/- Nevertheless, they missed the opportunity to develop Kim Se Hoon's character. Poor guy.
/- Lastly, Lee Bo Ram had the chillest role on the rooftop.
P. S. Commendable if this was filmed at the height of the emerging CoVID-19. They did a great job with the normalcy of the setting.

#18Again (18 어게인) Review:/- Actual Rating: 9/10
/- As far as all those second chance/lifetime-themed plots I've watched is present in this local adaptation of the Western movie, 17 Again, the KDrama quality and respect to the references were inevitably up to its standard. With all the events that took part in the lives around Hong Dae Young and Jung Da Jung's family, I can say that this became a mild and warm embrace to a show I've been meaning to find for a breather (after all the PTSD that Duty After School Part 2 gave me).
/- It is well-built. But not well-written. Had they put a more intense conflict(s) in the series (build-up of the stalker character, issues, the twins finding out the truth in a way, etc.), I may have rated this with a perfect 10. But then, I've enjoyed the mildness and warmth of this drama—everything falls into their rightful places if you live past your regrets in life to the fullest.
/- Because of this, I'm pretty much convinced I won't need another show to watch for a while. Happy I picked this one up. 좋다!

/- Actual Rating: 8.5/10
/- Plot-wise, I like how it started in the middle of it where it tackled the misses of their relationship; taking into account the backstories of how the present came to be was shown; cherishing moments passed by with all of your time without regrets and filled with hope to live fully. Well, except, I wished the writers should've taken a glance on how the antagonist was driven to his own pathway in seeking his own clarity. I guess, that's just a "love skill issue" or just an unfortunate fate for him.
/- The emotion they put into this drama was quite fascinating. It was delivered the way I would expect it with such occurring passion.
/- This kind of drama proved me that you don't need 16/32-episode format to satisfy the experience of it all.
/- I never knew that the lead actress was Kwon Yuri. She looked so different here. Might just be me.
/- Any SNSD member can ACT.

A straightforward snapshot of life, career, and love...
/ Actual Rating: 9/10/- It is what I deemed to like about Netflix KDramas. They never tend to put stalling scenes of every character for them to show their development. The struggles of being an Idol and being an ordinary citizen, living under their decisions to stay together depicted the reality of respecting the balance of life, career, and love. Despite all those, I think Doona and Won Jun had the right balance of their relationship. It's just an intimate yet very welcoming (and patient) to understand their feelings and their mental fortitude.
/- Aesthetically, I like the skybox filtering and cinematography!
/- This must be the best Netflix have ever done for a KDrama. Well-made!

#DutyAfterSchoolPart2 (방과 후 전쟁활동2) Review:
/- Actual Rating: 4/10
/- STUPIDLY DONE. A FUCKING DISAPPOINTMENT FROM THE WRITER. Who the fuck gives kids PTSD? I wonder if the author of the webtoon lived badly in poverty. Selfish.
/- In high need of feel-good KDrama because of how the show ended. The flashback didn't even count as something that would make you feel better. Enough of school dramas, I guess.

// #FindMeInYourMemory (그 남자의 기억법) Review:
/- Actual Rating: 8.5/10
/- This felt like it was a sequel of its own drama that didn't exist in the first place but it is still good anyway.
/- I love that every episode have smashing truths that will surely satisfy your expectations.
/- This drama had been very feisty with its storyline. I can't believe there were 3 antagonists in this show. 와~ 대박!
/- And lastly, Mun Ka Young! My respect is all yours. The emotional stress she'd been putting in all of her roles. May it be on being an antagonist or protagonist, she's literally giving it all. You're a true professional in your own craft, Mun Ka Young. ✨✨✨

#TheTaleofNokdu (조선로코 녹두전) Review:
1) 9/10.
2) I really enjoyed Act I. Act II was more like a heart-pumping one.
2) Loved how the characters performed their roles. I was rooting for them all actually.
3) It's been years since I last watched and let myself be enticed by a Historical KDrama (I'm not really a fan of it but the culture is rich).
4) I like the concept of this one. The Crown Prince Who Will Never Be King.
5) No screenshots. It was hella beautiful. 소휸씨~

#HotelDelLuna (호텔델루나) Review:
1) This drama is just an honest drama. I didn't prepare much on what to say. But I really like every piece of content in it.
2) Topnotch IU visuals (my bb). 🥺💙
3) It took time to finish it because I'm savoring all those episodes. And I was in-between watching and doing something else entirely so that's why.
4) IU visuals and some life screencaps below ⬇️

#LoveAlarm Review:
1) It's been a long while. LOL Well, talk about puppy love that is mixed with a semi-mature content, this KD from Netflix is a 7/10 for me.
2) 순오 is too immature for his role. And 조조야 is basically a naive girl. It's actually good 군대 it needs to be improved on its storyline. Like I need some stories about Jojoya's bestfriend and her ex-boyfriend. Idk It's kinda off being an immature type of a drama.
3) I only watched this because of 솧욘시. 🥺💕
