Zombieverse (2023)
What's with all those running and screaming?
Casts made it a cheap reality show. If they were to truly face zombie apocalypse, they won't even survive for an hour. From the first episode, they all were wasting energies running and screaming while accomplishing simple quests. They'd have die of exhaustion from all those running and screaming around in real situation, if not from zombie bites. That's not how you survive an apocalypse. If the show was really unscripted, then I'll have to say they are the dumbest surviver ever with lowest iq. It was really frustrating to continue watching.
I'm giving it 2 stars because there were some rarely funny moments I enjoyed. But overall it'll feel like waste of time.
Byeolttongbyeol (2022)
Rom-Com Gem
This k-drama is a gem of rom-com genre. The comedies are all so fresh and the romance scenes are all so heart fluttering. All the actors did amazing job in portraying their respective roles. Especially superstar Ggong (male lead Kim Young-dae) was so good. His facial expressions, detailed emotional changes in his eyes were so on point that made the drama more enjoyable. Applause for his brilliant acting skill.
The first half of the drama made me laugh so much that I will rewatch those episodes whenever I feel down. The second half was on the right mixture of both romance and comedy. The last few episodes, however, sometimes felt like a bit dragged.
One of the best thing about this drama is they do not wait till the final episodes to reach the climax. They introduced problems and solved them within few episodes. And so the story progressed, and I was all curious about what was about to happen next without getting bored. There were no unnecessary misunderstandings and everyone was so direct in expressing their feelings.
Despite having too many sub-plots in this story, this drama never once felt all over the place. Rather it was nicely and swiftly executed. However, there were some weak points in the story that I think they could have avoided. And it would have been much better if they ended it within 14 episodes.
KinnPorsche the Series La 'forte (2022)
A Must Watch Masterpiece
Plot, acting, locations, action, comedy, romance - it's a solid 10 on everything. It's a thai masterpiece. All the actors in this drama did such a good job that it felt like the characters were meant for them. I read online that they had to shoot the series twice under different agencies, I think which is why they became so comfortable playing those characters. Also, the story was so intriguing that I rewatched it twice.
It's a much watch Thai series. The best one in the bl genre. Those who are not a fan of this genre can also give it a try as I think they'll like it just like I did.
I hope they'll release a second season since they left lots of potential for the story to continue in the season 1.
Si lo hubiera sabido (2022)
Total waste of time
2 star because of the ending that explains all the stupidest, nonsensical, non connected story that was shown throughout the series.
I started watching this series as the teaser seemed interesting to me but I was bored since the first episode. I kept watching hoping something good to happen but it continued that way. The comedies were to lame and the story was total disaster. There were so many things that were so confusing but as the ending was shown, I could comprehend the incoherencies in the story. But still that doesn't justify the lameness of the story.
This series is a total waste of time. However if one has vast amount of time to waste, one can continue watching it.
2gether (2020)
Good but not so good
Chemistry between Tine and Wat was enjoyable. At first the story seemed cliche but things got better with time. I enjoyed the series for how their love-story evolved. Specially loved the love-twist of Sarawat. And yes, as many other reviews said, it did a good job in normalising boy love.
Despite the mesmerising handsomeness of the two lead actors, their awkwardness in acting was an eyesore for me. And the thing I absolutely hated was the character "Mill". I found myself fast-forwarding whenever his story was being shown cause I found it absolutely unnecessary to the story development. It was like writers included it to spice-up things that went wrong.
Despite all the things mentioned above, it's a good series for light entertainment but I won't recommend it as a must watch as there are many other BL stories out there that has more intensity and better acting.
Jigeum uri hakgyoneun (2022)
Are all of them really dead?
I have just done binge-watching the whole drama within a night and have enjoyed it! Well, the plot has some weak points that will be easy to finger-pointing while watching. However, it makes more sense than other monstrous apocalyptic k-dramas on Netflix that I have seen (e.g. Better than Sweet Home in many aspects I'd say).
It has pointed out the problem with our justice system and humanity. Also, that, at dangerous moments, it's love and hope that binds us together.
Jumping to the ending scene, it's nice that it has ended with giving hope that not everyone that we saw dead is actually dead. I bet that if there's a second season, it'll show Cheong-san surviving the bombing (by becoming a mutated zombie like Gwi-Nam with self-regenerating power).
365: Unmyeongeul Geoseuleuneun 1nyeon (2020)
A masterpiece that deserves more recognition
I finished watching it and still can't get it out of my mind for how amazing this show is! The direction of the story changed in every episode, totally unpredictable and yet the story did not get too messy. But it has a perfectly crafted story, a neat ending. I loved how everything was well explained in this drama. The dynamic relationship of the main leads was also enjoyable as it didn't turn out to be a cheesy romance as I thought it would be. There was no typical romance between them yet their love story touched my heart.
And last but not the least, while watching this, I was constantly thinking about what would have I done if I was given a chance to relive a year of my life? Well, I get to think twice about the philosophy of my life. "It's your constant effort that changes your fate."
I'm just surprised at how less recognized this show is compared to its amazing everything.

Squid Game
(Contains mild spoiler)
What an amazing show! Korean drama of this type is so different and well done. So unique in every element - the set, filmography, costumes, plot, acting, emotion - all was just to the point.
Aesthetic in a creepy way, emotional (I got all teary on the Gganbu episode), it also had so many life lessons that touched on so many aspects of life. The players there got me thinking about the fine line between good and bad. Another thing is that in comparison to the other actors, VIPs seemed to be more relaxed and preposterous as I was expecting them to be scary and serious. But that's the charm, I guess no one will be expecting those VIPs to be some old bored rich bummers.
Adults playing kids games with their life at stake. Despite all those horrors that were shown in this drama, the rewatch value is 10 on 10.
1 star down cause it didn't answer all the questions and I hope there will be a second season that I'll be waiting for.
The Lie (2018)
Predictable
The story and twists were predictable from the beginning. You wouldn't want to waste your time watching it unless you are running out of things to watch.
Choigoui Gyulhon (2014)
Good story, poorly executed
This is a very very different type of story that mainly focused on the problems with many Asian conservatives, patriarchal societies where women have lesser agency and freedom.
I started watching this because of No Min Woo (who played the role of Park Tae Yeon) and got disappointed from the beginning. Alert: this is a very stressful drama that addresses serious issues (like ostracism that single mothers face in a conservative society and several double standards that still exist in traditional societies) with silly acting. Idk what happened, that both the male leads and the second female lead were overdoing everything - overacting, exaggerated body language, weird expressions.
I wonder why there is not a single positive character in this drama! Every character in this drama had flaws.
Cha Ki-Young, a strong-minded, wilful, successful news anchor, whose life turns upside down when she decided to have a child out of wedlock. Park Tae Yeon (No Min-woo), a self-absorbed, egoistic, short-tempered, immature guy. Their Getting involved in a casual relationship, not being ready to accept their differences, getting pregnant which lead to series of other troubles. It's not a typical Cinderella-type romantic story, there's something to learn from it for what I continued watching it despite all the horrible acting and I must admit that the ending was not what I waiting for.
Spoiler: It was a matter of choosing between two trashy guys and Cha Ki Young will end up with Jo Eun Cha at the end (who was very villainous from the beginning but later provided support to Ki Young).
Sikago Tajagi (2017)
Unique
Amazing acting (especially that of the lead male actor), interesting story, unique love triangle (where one is actually helping the other two to grow close together), mind blowing OSTs, amazing set and costumes, beautiful cinematography - everything just made it a worth watching drama. It'd have been better if the story progressed a little faster, although it didn't decrease the quality of the drama. Just Continue watching it, it'll leave with no regrets and the waiting will worth it. Another thing is, if the stalker incident was explained in detail it'd have been a perfection.
This drama is a combination of horror, mystery, thriller, historic, romance and action that contains heart touching story (the last 2 episodes left me teary) with smooth transition between the present and the past. It basically tells the story of a group of people who were reincarnated - of their love, regret, passion, obsession and betrayal from past life to present.
I wish Yul was shown to be reincarnated in the end, however his bittersweet ending had a long lasting impact that made the drama even more hearty.
Highly recommended drama for k-drama lovers who would like to taste the uniqueness. It's a drama I'd definitely love to rewatch.
Joahamyeon Ullineun (2019)
Depicting Complexities of Relationships
Though having the elements of typical k-drama, Love Alarm stands out and is unique that addresses issues like mental health and negative impact of social media addiction.
The most admirable thing about this drama is it's depiction of complexities of relationships and ever changing human emotions and feelings. This drama exhibits how over dependence on technologies can create further problems. It was good to see how the central characters were making efforts instead of solely relying on what "Love Alarm" app was suggesting.
Watching Love Alarm felt like a emotional rollercoaster ride. Though an enjoyable good drama, some confusion still remains in the end. However the ending is not bad at all as many are claiming. It's just that you'll feel sad for some character who has a bittersweet ending. Overall it's a good to watch drama.
Kol (2020)
Too many alternate realities
This is a very interesting movie that'll keep your mind busy thinking what's gonna happen next until the very end. It has successfully made time travelling and multiverse concept more interesting. However.... The story of the movie creates too many possible timeline that is at some point confusing and the cliffhanger ending is a mess which will leave you more confused if you're looking for a logical conclusion.
YG Future Strategy Office (2018)
Full of dark humor
This show is full of dark humor. It addresses many of the issues of entertainment industries and scandals in a humorous way. Also, Seungri was very bold in his self-criticism and his excellent acting made it more hilarious. If you're familiar with kpop industry you're gonna love this!
