1. Our Shiny Days
Chinese Drama - 2019, 24 episodes
1/1
first drama of the year~~
only started watching for wang an yu so i skimmed thru the beginning except for his scenes
but the main story also got my interest, and the music battle was great :)
i also really liked the cousin and how she decided not to wait for him because her time is also precious. but then she ended up still sorta just waiting? and their ending felt sorta unfinished...wanting some more closure haha
shoutout to the director character, he was hilarious

5. Navillera
Korean Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
28/4
really well made and touching drama that had me crying every episode
at first, i was touched by grampie's dream to do ballet and the prejudice against it
later his relationship with chaerok and ballet just made me cry more T^T
motivational words from grampy "DIVE RIGHT IN EVEN IF YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE NOT READY"

7. To My Star

cute when the couple got together, but the episodes still too short for me to believe they developed any strong feelings :(
-
8. Move to Heaven
Korean Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
21/5
criessss han geuru and uncle T_T
some many tears and each was an interesting story, especially uncle's backstory :'((

-
9. The Imperial Coroner
Chinese Drama - 2021, 36 episodes
5/6
ahhh 他很爱她!! ahhhh 她也很爱他!!
so very cute and well written, all the characters were clever and acted sensibly
i especially like jing yi hehe
one thing maybe a bit repeitive with directing was how they didnt explain a lot of stuff as we were going but just showed the flashback of them planning
-
10. Taxi Driver
Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
6/6
first half was really good and interesting
second half was not bad but it did feel kind of draggy, and too much PPL in the last ep LOL
also some inconsistencies in last few ep, it showed like the son knew that his father was the murderer but then in next ep he didnt know
overall, kim do ki and rainbow taxi crew <3
not sure how i feel abt season 2, give me signal season 2 first!!!
-
11. Lovestruck in the City
Korean Drama - 2020, 17 episodes
6/6
cant believe i started this last year.. and already june
anyways i like the interview style
but the stories were weird and no focus on geon and his ex??
and ep 16 seemed more like finale then ep 17 with the random focus on minho >.>
-
12. Cliff Walkers
Chinese Movie - 2021
12/6
it was intense and interesting at parts but the resolution felt flat and rushed.
like how did they know where to find the guy and how could he help deliver the guy there
but i like the main 4 characters especially leader zhang :>
-

-
17. Word of Honor
Chinese Drama - 2021, 36 episodes
17/7
took me 4 months to finish this but finally did
was very confusing in the beginning, jus too many characters and i was bored everytime the main leads where not on the screen
i have to say i was one of the sceptic when zhang zhehan and gong jun was announced as the leads because their acting was just so wooden in their previous works.. who knew gong jun would have such a dramatic change and zhang zhehan was actually really good (shame on his ex-boss for giving him those previous roles??)
now im living for the off-screen interactions! all those weibo accounts , their hometowns tagging each other xDD off to watch their live concert if i can find it and other content

19. A River Runs through It
Chinese Drama - 2021, 36 episodes
2/9
almost perfect drama and prob most enjoyed drama this year?? ( watching it raw and at 5am) had really funny moments that were gold like the basketball scene and i didnt ffwd except near the end
source material is written by same author as suddenly this summer <3
really like lu shi yi :') wish they got proper scene for their confession moment or something....
such a shame for the really rushed ending and all the cut scenes due to editing it from 40 to 36!!
-
20. My Fated Boy
Chinese Drama - 2021, 29 episodes
9/9
my gad what a sweet drama and really like all the characters , the supportive friends and family, and their acting are so natural
especially the two best friends, shame we dont get to see yao dan's hubby
didnt expect to like a noona romance so much, the ML is just a big puppy who only looks at his wifey 。:゚૮ ˶◕ ᴥ◕˶ ა ゚:。 and the actors ears getting red heheh
i think this is very rewatchable, lot of cute moments :>
-
21. Hospital Playlist Season 2
Korean Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
18/9
i think the first drama this year that i actually watched every week
satisfied with the ending, especially biguldi couple <3
at first the episodes seemed a bit repetitive with lot of focus on patients but it got more focus on 99z in the second half. not enough Uju!!

-
23. Squid Game
Korean Drama - 2021, 9 episodes
8/10
liked the characters and the acting and the games
saw too many spoilers so nothing was really a shock to me (e.g. front man and the old man)
ending left too many things open ended
one of fav scene is def gong yoo's slapping xD
