    watched this after Call it Love, because ... well.. Sung Joon, then watched Shooting Stars for Lee Sung Kyung  - both of them - decent watches - not outstanding ... but I don't need all dramas to be amazing...

  • Crash Course in Romance

    7. Crash Course in Romance

    Korean Drama - 2023, 16 episodes

    9.5

    after watching this I have not started Sky Castle.   This is an easier watch .  I really enjoyed how they gave us two dramas in one, stories nicely intertwined, and also some weird mystery thrown in... but somehow, it worked.

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 31 episodes

    10

    Such a happy re-watch.  This drama has so much fun stuff.  The way fans treat idols.  How people treat their exes. The second couple was a delight!!  The team spirit and all the tidbits on how a team should work.  Leadership skills highlighted.  Of course - women in traditional men’s arenas.  All ofthis packed into a story around a guy who is witty and funny and strong who fell for a girl who was true to herself and kind to those around her.

    Japanese Drama - 2023, 12 episodes

    9.0

    This genre is drama reflects so many feelings from my life story.  The letter to read on the train - or in my case an airplane - and the overwhelming feeling of parting.  Many things in this drama felt real

  • Girlfriend

    18. Girlfriend

    Chinese Drama - 2020, 36 episodes

    8.0

    I forgot that adorable Luo Zheng had a guest role in this... it was worth it even just for his scenes... but this re-watch made me even like this drama a little bit  more.. cliche and not perfect but definitely good to turn off thinking cells and watch

    10

    I don't know how many times I have watched. but still I love it.  this time though i was very liberal in skipping through the politics.  also, since I am also watching Our Blooming Youth, it is even clearer how much these two dramas are alike... there are quite a few scenes in OBY that are reminiscent of LITM.

    this was actually good, but i had a hard time getting through  the silliness of the "reality show"

    re-watched this AGAIN... i really want to do a montage of all the Christian Grey moments that Xiao Nai has... 

    stalkerish , gaslighting  and possessive ownership behaviour

    • when she is asleep reading , reading her messages - and answering them!
    • seeing her, asking people about her, finding out she is Luwei Weiwei and entering into  in-game marriage to trap her
    • 1st date after she says she wants to enter arena without him to lay low - he IGNORES her and all make a grand production of "claiming" her in public by having everyone watch him walk up to  her and have  conversation  about them not meeting up tonight as planned!!
    • when they met in person - he walks away and says 'aren't you coming" this is not a coincidence, i am waiting for you... again... the gaslighting
    •   hacking her computer and knowing she was missing him because she watched the video
    • calling her his fiance and then gaslighting her saying she brought it up
    • telling her he will NEVER leave her, he will just keep convincing her even if she cheats on him...
    • getting his parents to drop her off at school - knowing full well everyone will know - .... again forcing her hand... claiming her so she can't back out
    • she said she did not want anyone at work to treat her like his girlfriend... so he holds her hand and walks in... this man does not listen to her one bit!!!
    • kindly takes her in when she is fighting with her girlfriend but then emotionally manipulating to stay by suggesting she is just using him...
    • sending her money to buy a ticket and come see him
    • suggesting she should please him with her body to get an internship!!!

    there must be so much more - and boy do i love all this toxic behaviour because i know all these darn moments by heart!!!

    I can't believe this was a 2013 drama.  it actually holds up okay. The phones though... and the Infiniti PPL... Infiniti used to spend lots of money on the K dramas then... Also,  I realized since I just re-watched Oh  My Venus, that JiSub's role in this and that are similar in nature and the interaction with his romantic lead is somewhat similar, they are connected physically, one couple because of excercise and the other due to the "sheltering" - both with powerful families they are trying to stay independent
