My Take On The Dramas I Have Watched This Year.....So Far

Love Scout

I love this drama. It was one of my most anticipated since it was announced last year or so. I didn't really know the characters except the female lead. I later watched the male lead for the first time last year in Dongjae The Good Or The Bastard.

I like the plot of Love Scout. The characters played their parts well. I especially love the male lead's daughter. She is so cute.

However, I don't feel the chemistry between the leads. To me, that's what's lacking.

Check In Hanyang

This one.. hmmmm. I watched it for the male lead. I like him so I am managed the very nonsense drama.

Motel California

I stopped watching this at episode 5. I refused to stress myself over 2 dramas (this and Check In Hanyang) that I don't really enjoy. The leads here are not my favourites so it was easy to drop it.

When The Phone Rings

I really enjoyed this one. The story was good. The chemistry was 'chemistrying'. I could feel the love and restraints the male had for the female lead from the 1st episode.

Towards the end, the suspense was gone but it was ok. This one was good.

Study Group

This is a really good one. I love the plot, the humour, the fights. The male lead is so sweet, loyal, funny, innocent and naive. Lol. I first saw him in Alchemy Of Souls and he was my favourite character. Then I watched him in Lovely Runner, enjoyed him there as well so I was looking forward to this and I am having a good time with it.

As much as I loved Weak Hero Class 1, Study Group tops it for me.
*The fight scenes are more interesting.
*The comedy is really good.
*More information on the male lead, why he learnt to fight, how is struggles with his academics etc..
*Also, the guy is sooooo naive and innocent. It's so cute.
*His is more likeabke
*The villain is psychopath. What surprised me about the bad guy here is that he is a very good fighter. He doesn't just hide behind his minions. Their fight at the end will be brutal.

I am curious about his dad because apparently he is some sort of a genius. So I am hoping they show us more of that aspect of the drama. I don't think the dad was pressuring him academically but I am sure the mum doesn't put pressure on him to succeed. I am also curious about the uncle that trained him and why they cut ties as per the mum's request.

I hope it continues to be enjoyable.


The Queen Who Crowns

I wasn't planning to watch this but I am glad I did. They are still some questions left unanswered and the drama is ending tonight. Hopefully it will be answered in the prequel airing this month....I think.
*It was mentioned in the earlier episodes that the King lived with the queen's family when he was just a prince. Why?
*Why did he kill his brother, the former crown prince?
*Why did the queen run towards them shouting "no" just as he killed his brother?

They should just answer the above for me in the prequel and I will be fine. That's the only reason I will be watching that.


The Trauma Code: Heros On Call

I watched this and it was just an ok drama for me. I really don't understand the hype around it. Doctor Romantic was much more better in every aspect. Far better in my opinion. It wasn't a bad or uninteresting drama but I have seen something better so I really don't get why this one has so much paparazzi around it.


The Scandal Of Chun Hwa

I didn't plan to watch this at all. Decided to try the first episode when it came out and enjoyed it. However, I told myself that I won't take this drama seriously. This is the most informal historical drama I have seen in kdrama. I don't even know the boundaries of the palace. The royal families interact with the public unlike other dramas where the people don't even recognise their rulers outside the palace. The language sounds modern to me but I am not so sure as I am not an expert on the Korean language.

Even more than the main leads, I am very curious about the crown prince and princess. It's obvious they like each other so I am waiting to see their backstory revealed. Why do they act the way they do towards each other?


Anticipating

The Witch
Undercover High School

Suicideboy:
Korean men are not attractive


wait till you see them irl with their mop hair cut


Chinese men are more attractive, there is a reason Korean women are leaving korean men and going for Chinese men

Suicideboy:
everything on this list is literally slop except study group


instead of Scandal Of Chun Hwa, watch the trunk instead

decent kdramas : mother, little women, winter wind blows, coffee shop

Aigoo netizens are eating jisoo up for her terrible acting and I'm just like 😩 please drag her to filth and return her back to me safe and sound so I can pamper her back to health🤣. Tbh even Suzy, yoona, taecyeon, minho and Cha Eun woo at their worst times were still better than she is and it's mostly her enunciation of words that's really bad. The only person who was this level bad was hyeri but I think even her got better after a while. Anyway jisoo has her fandom and popularity so she will still continue to be cast in dramas, I mean she has an upcoming drama and movie already and I will watch cos she's my baby but chai girlie needs to do better

P.s: happy birthday to go ara Unni

*Currently watching*: motel California, newtopia

I guess I'm not the only one who finds the soldiers in newtopia so annoying and quite dumb. The show boils my blood but I'll manage to continue because it's a zombie show.

kangminhyuksho:
Yes! There's going to be season 2 of the trauma code 🕺🕺🕺

Last week we got episode 1 &2 of newtopia so I was expecting 3&4 this week but apparently they'll now be releasing only 1 episode per week 😩 I don't know why they want to waste my time 😭 drama that should be ending in 2 weeks time will now air for 5 more weeks? H for HAIGOO

Motel California has ended, thank you Jesus. I thought it was weird how the villagers suddenly became nice to her. They might not be "evil" people but they hurt her a lot with their gossiping but whatever. I totally understood her classmates apologizing to her but the villagers suddenly started acting nice without any apology , it was weird but whatever I guess. The happy ending of the drama is enough to satisfy me so goodbye to the drama. Here's hoping undercover high school that starts next week will entertain me, thank God it's also just 12 episodes

kangminhyuksho:
Lol I hope you people didn't go into the drama expecting something serious. It's a dark comedy so it's supposed to be sarcastic and dumb but tbh even for a dark comedy, it's still not a great one cos tbh some of the dumbness especially that of the soldiers is uncalled for. I mean how do you see someone get bit by a zombie but you still want to save the person? 🤷

Ovems:
@ Trauma Code.......una over hyped series 😀.

I miss dramas with longer episodes, 16-20 episodes. I think these kdrama people have been listening to you cos you always complain when the series are long....(Although I understand your reason sha as some of them tend to drag unnecessarily). But what we get now are dramas between 6 to 12 episodes that have underdeveloped plots and characters and rushed endings. They should bring back longer episodes please.

kangminhyuksho:
Lol @ your constant shade at our trauma code 🤣

Anyway I prefer short rubbish to long rubbish 😭🤣
