Korean Drama - 2019, 32 episodes
- LOVE LOVE LOVE
- aired + watched: may 22, 2019 - jul 11, 2019
- mvps: han ji min, jung hae in
- quick thoughts: ADORED THIS DRAMA SO MUCH. genuinely can't think of another drama like this one (other than the one the creators worked on before...but i don't want to think about something in the rain ><). characters were so mature and introspective, and it was lovely to see them navigate the relationship and the difficult feelings within.

![When the Camellia Blooms]()
2. When the Camellia Blooms
Korean Drama - 2019, 40 episodes
- LOVE LOVE LOVE
- aired + watched: sep 18, 2019 - nov 21, 2019
- mvps: gong hyo jin, kang ha neul
- quick thoughts: truly adored this drama. it really had the perfect balance of warmth, contemplativeness, romance, and comedy. my heart was so comforted throughout. prob could have done with less of the joker mystery...but it actually felt kind of timely considering the release of the western joker film with joaquin phoenix.

- aired: nov 7, 2016 - jan 6, 2017
- watched: late december, during the holidays
- mvps: han suk kyu, seo hyun jin, yoo yeon seok, jin kyung
- quick thoughts: really adored this drama. fully bought into the chemi between yoo yeon seok and seo hyun jin - in fact, i was so bought in that i was *QUITE WARM* and at times just swooning lol. tbh it wasn't that there were too many romantic scenes, but these two actors reallyyyy sold the attraction. also kim sabu! truly the best of doctors. han suk kyu is pitch perfect in this role.

![Romance Is a Bonus Book]()
7. Romance Is a Bonus Book
Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
- LOVE LOVE LOVE
- aired + watched: jan 26, 2019 - mar 17, 2019
- mvps: lee na young, lee jong suk, jung yoo jin
- quick thoughts: the drama that lured me back to k-dramas. came for the magnetism of lee jong suk, but stayed for the amazingly progressive (at least, from the last kdramas i've seen) storyline and the great female friendships along the way.
-
![Psychopath Diary]()
8. Psychopath Diary
Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
- aired + watched: nov 20, 2019 - jan 9, 2020
- mvps: yoon shi yoon, park sung hoon, heo sung tae

![Welcome 2 Life]()
11. Welcome 2 Life
Korean Drama - 2019, 32 episodes
- aired + watched: aug 5, 2019 - sept 24, 2019
- mvps: im ji yeon, rain
- quick thoughts: totally charmed by im ji yeon in this drama. i think this drama was severely underrated (at least by kdrama twitter lol) in that the story was excellent and the acting between the leads was amazing. i couldn't handle the cruelty of the main baddie for most of the time - it was truly vomit inducing. but the slime was thankfully very much balanced out by the rest of the cast.

![Chocolate]()
12. Chocolate
Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
- aired + watched: nov 29, 2019 - jan 18, 2020
- mvps: jang seung jo, yoo teo (;___;)
- quick thoughts: hmmm. i wish i liked this drama more, tbh. it started off pretty strong and lovely - really enjoyed the focus on the food and the patients' stories. but i got super bummed out by all of the freaking obstacles they kept throwing chayoung (ha ji won's char) and i honestly didn't buy into their love.
-
![I Wanna Hear Your Song]()
13. I Wanna Hear Your Song
Korean Drama - 2019, 32 episodes
- aired + watched: aug 5, 2019 - sept 24, 2019
- mvps: hmmm. no one really stood out :(
- quick thoughts: mess of a drama. tried to blend way too many genres at once. would have been best to just stick to one or two and use the rest of the effort in making a tight knit story.
