This article is meant to refresh your memory or maybe bring to your attention the dramas that aired in Japan in 2019. This is an effort to help bolster the MDL awards when they come out in January 2020. I have counted the ballots 2 years in a row now and I can tell you we usually only get votes for the Fall season. I want this year to be different and this is the best way I know how to do that.

Wanna know what Jdorama has been subbed in 2019? Giftedones map is a good place to start but it does not have all of them.
