2024 - Finished Dramas/TV Shows
SPOILERS FOR EACH DRAMA BELOW (It's just my own opinion after watching)
-
1. I Will Die Soon
Korean Drama - 2023, 4 episodes
09/01/24 - 10/01/24
-
2. Death's Game Part 2
Korean Drama - 2024, 4 episodes
10/01/24
Well, that could have been better. It was tiring and annoying to see them judge and be that harsh to the ML all the time because he committed suicide. The way they dealt with that aspect wasn't something I agree with. Also, that ending was kinda dumb? I couldn't really feel anything I just wanted it to end lol -
3. The Bequeathed
Korean Drama - 2024, 6 episodes
25/01/24 - 26/01/24
Plot was weak imo, could have been a movie instead. Some parts were boring, also couldn't care for FL. -
4. Suspicious Partner
Korean Drama - 2017, 40 episodes
10/12/23 - 04/02/24
Talk about being insufferable at the end, Jesus. I didn't even care if they would get together or not by the end. Last 6?5? eps or something were just something I had to force myself to watch.
Also don't like that SML kept trying to stay friends with the dude he hurt that bad, don't u have any shame? SFL is just someone who I didn't wanna watch, ever, don't care for her and she annoyed me. Sure go be happy together or something but stay away from ML, dang.
FL was very dumb at some parts. At least main guy was cool with glasses and his hair up, and ofc the villain was the best part, carried this drama on his back tbh. -
5. Gyeongseong Creature
Korean Drama - 2023, 10 episodes
12/02/24 - 13/02/24
It wasn't the best drama ever but it was entertaining. I liked the ML and his character. FL's actress is kinda...she isn't bad but she doesn't convey much of anything lol Also, that ending...it didn't make much sense with that lead up to season 2 (her in the water? when was she thrown there hello? also kinda disappointing since it seems like she's the only one who'll live and he will die normally and get reincarnated or something, I wanted both of them to be reincarnated), still, will watch it when it comes up. -
6. Blind
Korean Drama - 2022, 16 episodes
24/02/24 - 25/02/24
It was engaging, made me binge it actually, so I was entertained. FL was kinda useless a bit aside from hiding the ML but ok lol I really liked the brother's relationship and the brother of the ML as well. It's very sad what the kids went through.
I didn't really like the ending that much though, I felt bad for the bro, dude already went through so much, it would have been better if they somehow made him not know or not agree with the plan of killing the innocent people, instead of making him say "ok" to that part of the plan, so that it wouldn't look as bad for him. Either way, it was a drama I enjoyed. -
7. He is Psychometric
Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
27/02/24 - 29/02/24
Very mid. Weak plot, got extra boring after a while, male lead is especially dumb. -
8. Perfect Marriage Revenge
Korean Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
01/03/24 - 02/03/24
Low budget short makjang. Acting was kinda bad tbh lol -
9. Biography of a Villain
Korean Drama - 2023, 10 episodes
03/03/24 - 09/03/24
It was interesting. I would have changed a little bit of the last bit of the ending so it wasn't so cringe but still, a nice drama. -
10. Buitengewoon Jij
Korean Drama - 2019, 32 episodes
10/03/24 - 12/03/24
Haru was so great and cute at the beginning, then when he came back he became a bit more generic lol It was an ok drama, started off really great, leads had chemistry, it was kinda entertaining, but then it became VERY annoying VERY fast with the second lead, talk about ruining a drama, my God. And that plot lasted soooo loooong, I was glad when the drama was finished because I wouldn't have to deal with watching him anymore tbh. Still, main couple was cute. -
11. Mouse
Korean Drama - 2021, 20 episodes
03/06/22 - 12/03/24
Took me 2 years but I finished it. This could have been good but it was just mainly boring, with characters that I didn't really care about. Some parts of the plot were really dumb too. Also can anyone inform them that not all psychopaths are serial killers and vice versa? It was getting on my nerves already the way they used the term.
The ending was unfair af imo, dude already got emotions and hated himself, he didn't need ALL of you judging him and demonizing him like dang dude. To me, as soon as he got emotions, he was a different person. He wasn't the same as before where he did those things, now, he wouldn't do them, so to me, that ending just made me feel bad for him since it's like he got all the blame of a past self that he didn't have control over or something. -
12. Moon Embracing the Sun
Korean Drama - 2012, 20 episodes
15/03/24 - 16/03/24
It has cliche parts but it was still entertaining, including the political part. I really loved that one OST lool Second male lead was there just because, I didn't care about him for most of the drama tbh, at least he didn't get in the way that much, but what was that dumb sacrifice at the end noooo I know why he felt he needed to do that but it was so unnecessary of the drama, they could have made him just leave or something. FL's adult actress was bad imo. -
13. Lovers
Korean Drama - 2023, 10 episodes
16/03/24 - 17/03/24
That ending of ep10 made me so mad at FL for not saying bye properly and just leaving the dude hanging there. It was a very frustrating drama, miscommunication 101. They always end up fighting or saying shit they don't mean to each other and regretting it. I do ship them though, and I like the ML a lot.
FL annoys me at some points, but she is very good at keeping the others surviving and they stayed alive thanks to her, I like that she's smart and proactive. Her friend is cute, her friend's husband got me mad in this season. Political/historical plot is very interesting. -
14. Tell Me What You Saw
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
17/03/24 - 19/03/24
It was meh, nothing stands out that much tbh. SFL was infuriating with her actions from a certain point until the end. Best character (SFL's friend) died rip -
15. My Dearest Part 2
Korean Drama - 2023, 11 episodes
20/03/24 - 27/03/24
The suffering is finally done lol I really shipped the couple and ML totally won my heart. It got that frustation only My Dearest can make us go through again lol Political/Historical plot was good, I liked the prince and the princess, sad that they died. Also rip for that friend of ML that died.
Enemy princess was SO ANNOYING MY GOD. Worst character, I was so glad she when was gone, it took so long. FL's ex husband sucks ass as well, what an asshole. And FL's friend's husband that made me think he was ok from a certain point in the drama got me to hate him at the end, wow. I don't think she should have taken him back tbh, he didn't deserve it, but fine then. COULDN'T SOMEONE KILL THE KING FFS DUDE TOOK SO LONG TO DIE WHAT A POS.
About the ending, he was really gonna kill himself and not tell FL about how he thinks ML was alive? Talk about being double the asshole. He only managed to tell her because they saved him. Ending was kinda rushed tbh, and seriously? Dude got amnesia a SECOND TIME? He wasn't even hit on the head on that fight bro. Can't believe they got separated for what? 10 years or something? Because of that shit. Also, ML's friend who liked him...why is his hair white?? Stress? lmao
Either way, I don't regret watching it, I wanted to see main couple happy and I'm glad they finally got their happy ending. -
16. Less Than Evil
Korean Drama - 2018, 32 episodes
20/03/24 - 01/04/24
It was kinda ok kinda meh, could have been shorter than it was tbh. Villain was like the Terminator, just didn't die lool Didn't really care for anyone in the police team, the corrupt cop was the most annoying bit of this whole drama, ML's sister was annoying af as well. Also, could anyone just go into the police station rooms like? lol ML and FL had some nice chemistry at least. That case with the Punisher was so annoying and hypocritical of the ML that it made me like him a bit less. -
17. 365: Repeat the Year
Korean Drama - 2020, 24 episodes
01/04/24 - 09/04/24
Leads had great chemistry, ML is nice, I also quite like the actor. Characters make some dumb decisions at times (girl why would u just go to "save" people when you don't even know how to fight and don't have a weapon, what good would u even do?).I think this drama could have been even shorter because it got tiring by the end (with all the lies and that they kept going back to the lady, it was a bit annoying). With every single person with their own lies and secrets that got revealed one by one, I wonder why the main characters kept trusting people lol This drama had a couple of plot holes and the killer was kinda obvious. Honestly, most of the people who went back were trash.
Ending was rushed and kinda... I think they could have worked this out in a better way. About the couple, sad that she doesn't remember and he does, but I hope they get to begin a proper romantic relationship this time because I shipped them so hard and their partnership was so good and they never gave us many scenes with them in a romantic light lol Overall it was an ok drama.
-
18. Dark Hole
Korean Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
11/04/24 - 13/04/24
A frustrating drama. Stupid decisions all around and some very frustrating characters (how many unlikeable characters can you have? And some of them died too easily for the amount of annoyance they gave) lol Didn't really cheer for anyone in specific to survive this because I didn't really care about anyone that much. The "zombies" were kinda cool even though the main monster was kinda lame, I was expecting more I guess. Meh drama. -
19. Mad for Each Other
Korean Drama - 2021, 13 episodes
15/04/24
4 first eps were really hard to sit through, they got me very angry and annoyed. I was considering dropping it, I'm not very fond of the whole "fighting all the time" trope and the girl never apologized for the wrong things she did either and always thought she was right, I know she has trauma but she was still harming an innocent person's life, the least she could do is apologize. The situations weren't funny.
Drama finally got better and started moving forward from ep5 onwards. I didn't care for the ladies from the building and they were annoying at points + the second plot with Samantha and the part timer was totally unnecessary, there was no substance there, could have been cut out. Main couple was cute after I got used to them.
But bro what was that ending? From like the middle of ep12 until the end it was a disappointment, not satisfactory at all. I should have just dropped this at the beginning.
-
20. Thirty But Seventeen
Korean Drama - 2018, 32 episodes
09/04/24 - 20/04/24
What a gem of a drama! Refreshing! I was surprised that I really enjoyed this since it's not usually the type of drama I enjoy lol I barely recognized Ahn Hyo Seop, my God lool
Main couple had great chemistry and I liked the characters. Weakest character was that girl that liked Chan (she even disappeared after one point lol), and the rival was not that developed but overall they made very charismatic characters and I liked their developments. It's a slice of life that you watch and it's like nothing happened in that ep but stuff actually does happen at the same time? lol If I had one complaint it would be about how they explained the uncle and aunt thing and how that aunt of hers behaved, but I'm glad she wasn't a big part of the drama.
Anyways, what a joy it was to see these characters grow and find a family with each other. The ending was very cute as well. -
21. The Victims' Game
Taiwanese Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
24/04/24 - 26/04/24
For the first 4 eps +- I liked the vibe (serious/gloomy) but I thought the drama was just alright, wasn't really grabbing me fully and the characters weren't really vibing with me but then it got better and the main characters also got more depth. Journalist was annoying at the beginning but grew on me as she changed as a person and learnt to face her trauma.I think this was a decent drama, it wasn't perfect in its approach of suicide but I think it did a better job than most dramas I've seen and watching the bts bits at the end of the eps showed that like they really believed the message and the issues the drama addressed came from a place of empathy from the people who worked on this which was nice to see. Wasn't expecting much but it was a nice/decent short drama.
-
22. Diary of a Prosecutor
Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
27/04/24 - 04/05/24
It was ok, I liked the second half more than the first half. The FL on the first eps was annoying af and the ML was annoying in some other bits. I kinda liked the vibe of the characters when they were together, but they did annoy me from time to time, they aren't very likeable in the normal way, it was very much like that the whole way through lol I don't like bickering so their fighting (and over misunderstandings sometimes) wasn't appealing to me, I'm glad they kinda stopped fighting as much after some eps. I did like the first chief at first but was so disappointed with him at the end and team 2's boss was def my favourite character.It's a strange drama, not sure how I feel about it. There's a theme for each ep, some things they say I agree with and some I don't. Ep 11 was kinda boring, but the drama isn't boring per se. Some cases I didn't really care for. Idk how to feel about it since there are some parts that I like and some that I don't, so my feelings are mixed. I think it's not that memorable, but I don't regret watching it.

23. Tomorrow
Korean Drama - 2022, 16 episodes
05/04/24 - 30/05/24
It was ok but not that memorable. Sometimes it felt like they were pushing too hard to make us pity people and cry (even though yeah their lives are sad, sometimes it just felt like I was watching something the writer wrote just to get a reaction out of us and that took me out of the story), with some scenes even being kinda cringey to me. FL was cool, even though I disagreed with her convincing methods on the first few eps (resulting in her failing multiple times) since I thought she was way too harsh on people, but she developed nicely and grew on me, she def carried the drama and had great chemistry with her husband. It's sad that they'll never be able to be together again since they're reapers now, I still shipped them :( Rowoon wasn't a good fit for that character imo (his acting wasn't quite there) and his character also came off as annoying and childish. Some acting in the drama by the guests wasn't that great. -
24. Let's Start the Argument
Korean Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
20/05/24 - 31/05/24
Predictable and some actions by the FL were frustrating but it was enjoyable enough, even though it wasn't that memorable. Leads had chemistry. The police was very dumb ngl. The ending could have been a lot better, left a lot of plot lines without a proper ending, could u just not bother showing the ending for the characters? Like?
-
25. Blood Free
Korean Drama - 2024, 10 episodes
08/06/24 - 09/06/24
It was interesting. Morally grey characters, but they were well written, I shipped the main leads as well lol Some parts they intended to be "cool" were actually cringe (like some of the "futuristic" parts) but I can overlook that lol It really needs to have a second season though, it's like they ended in the middle, so it needs a season 2 to finish it well, hopefully it gets renewed.
It's not the best show ever but it was a solid one especially for 10eps (wish they did a normal length drama and didn't split this in 2 seasons), I was never bored. They tried something new here with the sci-fi and fake meat lol -
26. Although I Am Not a Hero
Korean Drama - 2024, 12 episodes
16/06/24 - 26/06/24
It was kinda meh. Lots of wasted potential imo, the premise was cool but I guess I expected too much? It could have been a lot better.
The couple had chemistry at least, even though I felt their love came a bit out of nowhere. I hated the dude's mom so bad, she never got better imo, and most of the family's problems came from her being a giant asshole. I didn't like the girl's family either like...idk what they wanted to do here, they weren't good guys but the drama kept using them as comedy relief and like they weren't totally bad but then used them as antagonists. I thought the girl's mom's actress acted well, but I didn't like her character (I would have liked her as a villain) and couldn't feel sincerity with her ending development, same with the daughter's "friend".
Most plot points for the characters just didn't grab me that much. Let me say, I think the sister had more chemistry with her frenemy than with the uncle that they put a romance with out of nowhere. I do think a romance using the uncle would be nice, they just didn't give him interactions with ML's sister and he also didn't have interactions with other girls his age so...
So yeah, drama was kind of a mess of lots of things and they only started trying doing some kinda of development almost at the end on which drama seem rushed, spent too long with the boring parts of the push and pull of the couple and the family still having the same problems (sister with her prick of a fianceé and main girl's sister that I just wanted to be gone already, mom being her annoying self, dad kept acting like a servant more than a family member and the daughter being introverted and suffering bullying). Did no one take care of the daughter like, dang?? I think the best scene of the drama was that first scene when the daughter finally opened up with her dad, that made me tear up, aside from that the drama was kinda meh in regards to making me care. -
27. Happiness
Korean Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
14/08/24
The streamer guy got on my nerves so bad. I hated most of the people from the building and the few that weren't so bad also made dumb decisions that I was like...why though lol The frustration was real.
Bruh the old couple disappeared after a certain point lol Not even the main leads checked on them for ages lol I feel like they got so many characters that some were kinda useless most of the time. I liked that one dude from the penthouse that died, sad. Also, that was so stupid of the ML to not tell FL about him getting infected when they promised multiple times that they would tell each other everything. Sucks that he hid stuff from her and also did the same thing they criticised other people for doing, hiding that they were infected, at least he apologized for it in the end.
I didn't really ship the couple that much, they had more of a perfect duo vibe more than a romantic vibe, which is nice that they complement each other and help each other out, not saying they don't, but I didn't feel that "omg I ship them" feeling lol
So yeah, drama was ok overall. I liked that they were a power duo/couple and the FL was cool, but overall I felt that the drama was just ok to me (with lots of frustration) lol I felt like the ending was kinda..dragged? But also rushed to explain some stuff, they ended up not showing what happened to some of the characters afterwards. -
28. In the Forest With No One
Korean Drama - 2024, 8 episodes
25/08/24 - 26/08/24
I wondered where this was going and thought it would go somewhere promising, but it disappointed me, it's not bad but it for sure isn't good, so I wouldn't really recommend it.
1 - The ML from the future is dumb and makes dumb decisions, he's frustrating to watch and I also didn't care for him because of what he did so it was hard to give a shit lol The present plot was boring in comparison to the past, their little "fight" was just annoying me.
2 - The people from the past were well written and I cared about their situation more than what was going on in the future with the ML, but at the same time I wondered why they were showing me that since it didn't really add anything to the story. The way they made the connection between the two stories was really forced, that point was very weak to me.
3 - The killer from the future is boring, she's just a brat lol Some scenes with her were kinda dumb. The way they kept showing made up scenarios of her killing people to show that the ML was scared of her was goofy af, it took me out of the drama. I hated the main guy, the killer and I also didn't like the captain (more in the past than in the future).
Ep4 was a chore to get through, ep5 went back to being kinda ok (killer was still annoying but at least it was more interesting than ep4. Also wow couldn't the cop run to the sides instead of in a straight line to avoid getting run over? lmao), ep6 was the best one (mainly because it dealt with the people from the past, and they're more interesting), ep7 was nice but only until a certain point (I mainly liked the start with the killer) and then the ending was just a disappointment to me, they could have done that better imo.
Watching the drama just made me think "what's the point?" a lot. Just feels like they wanted to make something with introspective dialogue and show that they were artistic and failed to deliver. -
29. Gyeongseong Creature Season 2
Korean Drama - 2024, 7 episodes
29/09/24 - 02/10/24
I liked the first season better but season 2 was also enjoyable enough, in a different way lol we need a third season now though because of that ending lol sad that the kid ended up going to the dark side in the end, I had hopes he maybe could be redeemed lol finally the girl died omg I waited two seasons for this kkkk sad that the crew from season 1 died though, that was such a tragic scene T_T I had hopes they died of old age... also omg I wish they gave us a bit more at the end for the couple, even though I was expecting something like this. But yeah, too many characters never had their fates revealed, and some stuff was left unexplained. I think they maybe needed more eps? Felt like 7eps was too short, I wanted more flashbacks as well, they were cool, explaining the time after season 1. I would watch a season 3 if it ever comes out. It had its flaws, so did season 1 but I think this one had a bit more, and some cliche scenes as well, but it's all part of the fun for me, it's not a good drama per se, but it's enjoyable to watch. -
30. Unknown Chefs
Korean TV Show - 2024, 12 episodes
01/10/24 - 14/10/24
It was fun to watch~ I didn't really like the winner tbh, he was so annoying and arrogant lol I was cheering for three stars, sad that he lost, but at least it was to edward lee, he was very creative and in my heart, he was the true winner here lol Napolitano wouldn't last in the tofu hell lol I hope they improve the second season, especially with the final round~ -
31. The Devil's Plan
Korean TV Show - 2023, 12 episodes
19/10/24 - 21/10/24
I enjoyed it~ The games were fun (even though I didn't fully understand that animal game lmao) and difficult, the personalities of everyone were fun to watch, even the people I didn't like lol I thought it was a bit unfair the way that the university guy and the girl left because that one girl decided to rat them out T_T but yeah, I was cheering for the actor and he won so I'm happy lol I'll watch the second season~ -
