3. The Great Shaman Ga Doo Shim
Korean Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
It's a fun short drama but I am still waiting for the second season. If Sae Ron is allowed to work again, I hope that they will pick the second season up, so the story will be finished.

5. Unforgettable Love
Chinese Drama - 2021, 24 episodes
It's a sweet drama including 'contract marriage' and all the tropes that are included in rich family dramas. I liked the first episodes but around ep 14, the typical tropes became repetitive and annoying. Also, from episode 15 onwards, the skip button became my best friend because all the tropes that I am not a fan of became stronger, such as a love triangle (though it is not dangerous emotionally) and a forced breakup to protect the other person without explaining it to the partner, which I absolutely hate. I actually have very strong feelings about the last trope because it ignores the feelings of the other person and takes away their decision to decide their future. They oftentimes actually gravely hurt the person which is not protection at all. I finished the drama because I still wanted to see how the drama ends (though, it is quite obvious) and to get closure. After all, essentially, the main characters are cute.

6. You Are My Glory
Chinese Drama - 2021, 32 episodes
A really good romantic drama. I liked the chemistry between the leads and their maturity. It was fun watching them evolve from one-sided high school crush to friends to lovers. I can recommend everyone to watch this drama! Go for it! It is deffo worth your time!
