1. Bad Buddy
Thai Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
Nothing fits when I try to describe why it's here so I won't XD
-
2. Go Ahead
Chinese Drama - 2020, 46 episodes
I could really go on and on about why I absolutely love this drama but let's just go with one word - WARMTH this drama really made me feel so much which is so rare for me and it just makes this drama precious.

3. Hospital Playlist
Korean Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
I didn't expect a slice-of-life drama to be so interesting and satisfying, it's like my happy pill
-
4. My Mister
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
I find this interesting because even though I can't relate to the situation, I can relate to the emotions so well, it's so natural, and is also one of my healing dramas.

5. Monster
Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
Psychological thrillers are my little obsession and it's been so long since I enjoyed one so much. Gosh the adrenaline was so real. I'm kinda glad I didn't read the synopsis first though.

6. HIStory3: Trapped
Taiwanese Special - 2019, 20 episodes
Ohh I actually expected this to be angsty and dark and honestly, that's more my kind of drama, but somehow this worked exceptionally well for me XD the romance didn't have any unnecessary drama and the characters themselves were so refreshing, I could write a whole essay about why I love the characters
-
7. Qiao Jia De Er Nu
Chinese Drama - 2021, 36 episodes
Hit a little too close to home often and was a painful watch, but still one of the best family dramas I have ever watched XD
-
8. Like in the Movies
Filipino Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
I am a sucker for symbolism in dramas XD it has a very common plot but damn it didn't feel like it at all, and the MUSIC, it's probably one important reason this drama made it to this list XD
-
9. Run On
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
There are just too many reasons I love this drama, like way too many XD
-
10. Eulachacha Waikiki
Korean Drama - 2018, 20 episodes
I don't really react much to scenes, but I did laugh way too much through this one XD a lot of times it was second hand embarrassment but a lot without too. Lee Joon Ki is one of my favourite characters in a series since then
-
11. The Guest
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
Let's just say this is kind of a stand alone kdrama. Just the soundtrack makes me emotional, that's so weird and cool XD
-
12. 180 Degrees Longitude Between Us
Thai Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
Love the vibe and was surprised in a good way at the direction the story took
-
13. Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha
Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
I don't know it just belongs here and I enjoyed it too much for it not to XD
-
14. My School President
Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
I think the music background with a fluffy story (even if I shall never rewatch Tinn's imagination XD) won me over, it just silently grew on me
-
15. It's Okay, That's Love
Korean Drama - 2014, 16 episodes
Okay this, it's one of the rare romances I actually enjoyed. Huge plus point for how healing it is XD

Korean Drama - 2010, 63 episodes

17. Seen from a Distance, Green Spring
Korean Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
-
18. School 2013
Korean Drama - 2012, 16 episodes
This was one of my early kdramas and I am also a sucker for friendship stories and this was just too special for me. Sure the main bromance was beautiful, but the other stories were pretty cool too
-
19. Solomon's Perjury
Korean Drama - 2016, 12 episodes
This has a really unrealistic setting, and has quite a few scenes that are just too convenient for the plot line, but it's one drama I won't ever forget because of the messages. There are too many people hurting and somehow through it, the characters healed, and so did I. Let's just say I watched it at a time I really needed it.
-
20. To My Star 2
Korean Drama - 2022, 10 episodes
I think this is mostly for the characterization and just the bundle of joy that's kang seo joon XD but this show was surprisingly well written and it's just grown on me XD
-
21. Swing Kids
Korean Movie - 2018
This well XD I don't know lol it's just one of my favourite movies
-
22. Better Days
Chinese Movie - 2019
I didn't expect to like this as much as I did, the raw emotions made this all the more better.
-
23. Stranger 2
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Stranger and Stranger 2 are weird dramas in my opinion. They didn't feel all that special when I watched them, but once I finished them, they just stayed in my heart. It's like how the story builds, slowly like pieces of a puzzle, but then ends up as satisfying as when you finish the puzzle XD
-
24. King of Pigs
Korean Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
Engaging, even if some things seem unnecessary, and a well paced arc towards the final showdown that didn't suck for a change XD
-
25. Moonlight Chicken
Thai Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
Wasn't what I expected from the trailer, but still a really cool drama
-
26. The Smile Has Left Your Eyes
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
I don't even know why it's here, like the story was cool but not all that new for me, but then the vibes it gave off were weirdly unique and I don't even know how they did that
-
27. Twenty Twenty
Korean Drama - 2020, 20 episodes
This drama resonated with me way too much. There really isn't much going on in terms of plot, and yet I loved how they built the story, and what they showed about boundaries.
-
28. A Tale of Thousand Stars
Thai Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
This is just BEAUTIFUL. That's the only word for it.
-
29. Friend Zone 2: Dangerous Area
Thai Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
I've never enjoyed a toxicmess as much as this one XD
-
30. Reply 1997
Korean Drama - 2012, 16 episodes
The whole setting of every reply series has me hooked
-
31. Reply 1988
Korean Drama - 2015, 20 episodes
still bitter about the endgame, I love the point of it, but also still can't let go of a soft spot XDD not to forget I accidentally got spoiled about something and then it didn't even happen, but it ruined the experience a lil XD
