Review of "The lies within"
- When I tell u this show fucked me up, this show fucked me up. I mean all the shit that went down in this show was so unbelievable that it seemed unrealistic but thats what made it so realisitic and relateable. There were times when I was even sympathising with some of the criminals because their feelings and thoughts seemed very human and relateable.- I don't know about others but I can say about this show is that it shows you the darkest parts of humanity and its faults and just how far people can go when they feel cornered. But it can also show you what its like to never give up, to stick to your morals and that the truth will always catch up to you no matter who you are. This show also teaches you some very important life lessons if you really pay attention.
- Overall, this show really sent me on an emotional rollercoaster but when was also very enjoyable to watch.

Review of "Midnight Runners"
- Well to start lets just say that I enjoyed every fucking bit of this movie. Honest to god. You would think that since the storyline isn't that original and that since there are many cop movies/shows with the same concept that it would kind of fade into the crowd, but NO! That's not the case at all. Yes, the concept is the same but it had its own nice little orginalities and spunk to it. Like for example, the ear cleaning shop part, that was something completely new for me and I oh-so loved it.- The acting was lovely. That's really all I can say since it was so good. I mean both of the main actors are so in sync! The bromance there is absolutely real. Even the villiam characters were nicely done, especially that one crazy ass mofo.
- Finally, a soundtrack I could jam too! Usually the soundtrack just fades into the backgroup whether it's a OST or not but not in this movie!! During the montages and fight scenes I was tuned into the scenes but was bopping my head to the jams playing in the background!
- Overall, I can say that this was a good way to spend and hour and 50 mins and this is definitely I reccommend.

Review of "Girls Revenge"
- Tbh, the story was quite the cliche revenge story but it was also interesting enough to make me stay through an hour and almost 30 mins. In my opinion the only thing that didn't make sense was the FLs brief brush of love with that one dude. Sure it was cute and all but it rlly wasn't relevant to the story at all and in the end it didn't even go anywhere.- This cast is completly new to me but they gave a quite nice performance. They were able to give off that puberty feeling. But at times it did look a bit akward.
- The music kinda faded into the background but the 2 times it stood out to me was when the party was takinf place and the ending song regarding their friendship.
- Overall it was nice and would definitly watch again just to kill time

WISH YOU : Your Melody In My Heart

Review of "Wish You: Your Melody From My Heart"
- Can I start off by saying that I am absolutely in love with this show! Its one of those shows that you can only describe as 'short but sweet.' While there is only 8 episodes and the episodes are only lile 8-12 mins long it was sooo worth it. While at times things could be fast-paced, it wasn't in a chunky, uncomfortable way; It was more of an let's move it along way shall I say? While, the story is quite cliche, its cute and cringy in a good way. I was left with some questions but well I'm gonna have to suck it up now won't I?- I'm absolutely in love with the soundtrack. There was a wonderful mix of original songs, western music, and some nice instrumental here and there (and we all love a good instruamental). All in all lets just say that my spotify just updated.
- The actors were amazing to put it simply. Its truly been a while since I've seen two actors express so much with just their eyes. And also.... They both fine as hell, not to point out the obvoius here.

Review of "Where your eyes linger"
- Coming at you with another one of those 'short-but-sweet' bl series. Only 8, 9-16 mins episodes yet I haven't felt this much emotion while watching a series in quite a while.- This couple managed to make me concerned, frustrated, and embrassed all in the same episode and while doing it in multiple languages (They were speaking korean but I was reading the subs in english).
- Don't even get me started on how good the actors were! I mean they had amazing chemistry(which we alwaye love to see).
- Not to mention that the soundtrack also totally slapped. I rarely really vibe with the music, mucn less actually pay attention to it, but with this series it kind of grabbed your attention all on its own.
- Overall, if your a bl fan and are looking for something that is nice but a quick binge I highly recommend this!

Review of "Stranger 1st season"
- First of all, can I just point out how fucking unique the plot line is!!!!! Honestly I was interested on how the director would play out the whole "no emotions" thing because while it was an intriguing idea it could have been a home run or a hit or miss and honestly I personally think they hit a home run with it!! They managed to create a character who was able to be apatheic in certain situations which was good because he was able to rationalize and reasons in ways that you can't when your being overwhelmed by emotion, but you could also tell he cared.- While his face barley ever changed (props to the actor btw) he body language told us all we need to know. From the way he stand to even how he placed his hands, I think they did a great job portraying this type of character.
- Now what I was impressed with was the most was the OST. Both the intro and the outro had me bopping, so much so that i would watch the credits just to hear the music. It also was very impactful with the storyline too.
- Now I'm just saying this to let you know, but this series contains but the smallest bit of romance. its not a big part of the story and it can't even really be called small either because while it does further the relationship between the characters it doesn't turn into anything big.
- Overall , this series is a must watch if your into crime/mystery with politics, corruption, and betrayal thrown into the mix. This show is definitely binge-worthy!!!

Review of "Leverage"
- First off, let me start off that my overall score is much lower than I thought it'd be. To be totally honest I thoroughly enjoyed this show. I mean, to begin with, I'm a total sucker for shows/movies with this type of plotline so I knew I was gonna enjoy it but it was more than that. The chemistry btw the actors when it came to their teamwork or their just overall mood when they were just chilling together was so nice and homey. It gave off that feeling like they had known each other for years before this. The revenge aspect was very nice to see too. It's something that's very common when it comes to action-based shows but I like how even though it was an important aspect for the show to move forward and for character development but it didn't become one of those "oh this again" topics; because while what happened was extremely depressing, it becoming a repetitive reason for why a certain character suddenly just starts to act every which way ruining it for everyone else involved.- The music was ok in this series, during the show, there were times when the music amplified the situation of a certain scene, and there were times when the music kind of just faded into the background. But my favorite part of the soundtrack were the songs that played at the end of the episode. I would always watch till the very end just to listen to that little bit of music.
- The only reason why I gave this show such a low re-watch value was that this is one of those shows that gets you excited and hyped because of the amount of twist and turns in it. So much unexpected shit happens in this show that before you know it you clicked the next episode button because you can't wait to see what happens next. And I personally just feel that a re-watch would make it lose some of that factor. But if you have no problem with knowing what happens already that you're free to re-watch it as many times as you want to.
- Overall, it was a great show, especially if your into this kind of genre and need something to binge-watch.

Review of "Love O2O"
- This was my first C-Drama and my first drama in genereal and boy am I glad it was!!! This really hit it off with me. I mean, the reason I came to love strong female leads is because of Wei Wei. She is so confident and elegant but at the same time a total badass when the time comes and god I love her!!! Yang Yang was also my first drama crush. He was so damn handsome and sometimes he would say something that was supppsed to be cringey and mushy but it just sounded so smoothe and nice coming from him.- The soundtrack was just amazing, and that's coming from someone who usaually lets the soundtrack fade away until it basically just becomes background music. It had this eretheal feeling to it and just made the whole series better to enjoy.
- Usually I'm not a re-watcher, mostly because since I have already seen the show that I know all the twists and turns and love affairs, but for this series I have re-watched this at least 2 times.
- Overall, it was a great startoff drama and I am forever grateful to netflix for putting this in my reccommended.

The Uncanny Counter Season 1

Review of “ The Uncanny counter “
STORYLINE:- I honestly realllly enjoyed the whole concept of this series, now is there still some unanswered questions?? I would say yes. Like for example Why and how did he basically become the portal btw yung and the human world?? Why him?? Now those questions could be answered in the next season but there are some plot holes that were started and never really... finished. Like why did the mayor kill that girl?? But besides the little nagging plot holes, the rest of the show was quite enjoyable. And also I don’t appreciate how they would throw in a character only to off him in the same episode
ACTING/ACTORS:
- Now this is the first drama I’ve seen jo byeong kyu in and honestly I’m impressed. He managed to get me attached to not only him but the people around him too. Nailed the crying scenes like a boss too.
- In fact this is the first time I’m seeing any of these actors and I’m genuinely impressed with their performances.
MUSIC:
- Honestly the ost slapped hard. It was so good that even when I wasn’t paying attention to the music when certain songs came on I would find myself subconsciously singing along.
~ Overall, this was a great, enjoyable drama and I can’t wait for season 2!!

Review of " The beauty inside"
- First, let me start off by saying that this movie deserves points for originality. I have never in my life seen something like this. This kind of concept was completely new to me which was very refreshing so, thank you very much.- Another thing that I loved about the movie was how realistic it was, sometimes it dramas everything can be so exaggerated so it was nice to see the real struggles that one could go through in a relationship. Especially when e-soo was doubting her relationship you yourself have probably never experienced her exact struggles but you could understand and relate to why she was having a hard time. To be honest, this movie made me cry, laugh, giggle, and get heart eyes all at the same time. The pacing was good and it overall gave you a nice cozy feeling. I was especially surprised to see the Park Seo-Joon in this movie! What a pleasant surprise.
- The soundtrack was all the memorable but during the credits and the scenes of the break-up and immediately after were when the instrumental hit the hardest.
- I'm not fond of the mellow drama genre but I would definitely watch this again. Mostly because their love story is so cute and unique that it makes you want to experience it all over again.

Review of "Tunnel"
- First of all, can we just take a second to appricate how the storylone is pure motherfucking gold!?! The concept of time-traveling in itself is always interesting to see but when it was used in such a way and the way it has such an impact on the storyline was brilliant. I personally would have never thought to use the concept of time travel in that way.- One thing I personally love about this series is how everything just ties in together. All of the characters were brought together by some strange twist of fate that no one saw coming, all the dirty little secrets everyone had thought had been left in the past was coming to light and giving us some twist and turns we never saw coming, and we saw just how dark and twisted humans can be.
- For me the Sound track wasn't really all that memorable for me. I just finisned the last episode and I still cant even remeber the melody. When it comes to sound track I feel that it should be just as impactful as the storyline and acting should be, and here it just wasn't all that.
- Overall, lovely series would reccommended to others definitely.

Review of “The school Nurse files”
(Beware that this is just my opinion and the only way for you to truly know how you feel abt this series is to watch it for yourself)STORYLINE:
- Tbh I was honestly intrigued in the beginning. The concept was a little out their and they never rlly explain where her powers come from or how they even started but I was intrigued none the less.
- I simply thought that this was gonna be a funny little supernatural series and I was all here for it. Where it went downhill was trying to jam in some plot out of nowhere into the last 2-3 episodes. It just made everything a jumbled mess and not enjoyable to watch.
ACTING:
- I am familiar with NJK but not so much JYM and thought that I couldn’t rlly feel attached to any of the characters. Sure they had their moments but I didn’t rlly feel a strong attachment to none of them.
MUSIC:
- For me the music was the best in episode 4. It was a very feeling-inducing episode and the music portrayed that nicely; in all the other episodes I watched it just kinda faded away.
REWATCH VALUE:
- Yeah no. I dropped the show on the second to last episode. If I couldn’t even tough it through another hour of this show I’m not gonna rewatch it again.

Review of "Meteor Garden"
- To be honest I don't know how I even made it through this show. I say this because as the person I am today I wouldn't have lasted 10 maybe not even 10 epispdes. Thats how frustrating this series was.- The things that saved this show were the side characters/couples and the soundtrack.
- I pereonally enjoyed the side characters/couples more than I did the main couple/characters. This was mainly because it seemed like they had more depth to them. They main couple was full of cliches and straight up bull while still managing to make me cringe in a bad way. To side characters stories were heart-breaking, funny, and just more realistic. I'm all for throwing in some cringy, unrealistic love scenes here and there bc this is a drama its gonna be there but the main couple kind of overdid it.
- The soundtrack was fuxking awesome though, there were some scenes that really got to me just because of how sad the music was.
- Overall, I wouldn't recommend this show to anyone mostly because I wouldn't want them to experiemce the same pain I went through.

Review of "Extracurricular"
- When I first watched the trailer I had already knew what I was getting into but was I sooooo not ready for it!! This series took me on a wild ride of shit that I can't even begin to produce words for. This is one of those series where you have to experience it yourself to even understand it.- The acting was so powerful and impactful to the point where i was genuinely worried about the actors well-being after it was all done and said. I was thinking that a role like that would have to take some type of toll on the mind.
- Honestly, I believe that this show should come with a disclaimer since some of the things that go on in this show aren't exactly teen friendly and can beat at you psychologically.
Definitely a MUST WATCH!!

Review of “Color Rush”
STORY- I have to admit this is a first for me. The concept was so new to me and many other kdrama/Bl fans that I honestly don’t know if I should be mad or sad that we only got the most basic info/ chilling parts of this whole Mono/Probe situation.
- I feel like they mostly only focused on all the terrible things that could happen instead to the experience and the amount of perspectives it could open up, but I guess that’s what you get if every time you turn on the tv you're hearing abt how another mono killed or kidnapped their probe.
- Also, are we not gonna speak on that big axx plot hole that we were left on??? Like not to ruin your lovey dovey moments but..... did u forget your mother disappeared without a trace?! I would’ve liked to see more plot line for that.
ACTING
- Personally, thought the acting was quite good in my opinion at least. Ofc there were times when I thought Yoo Han was a little stiff and could see the visible awkwardness in some emotional scenes but he can only get better from here! Yeon Woo blew me away though! He was able to convey so much without speaking which speaks loads to his skills, which is why I loved his emotional scenes sooo much but his cutesy, shy scenes were adorable also!
SOUNDTRACK
- I am absolutely in love with the music. That’s all I have to say It’s was literally music to my ears.
Overall this was a nice 4-5 hour binge definitely worth watching but prepare yourself for the second hand embarrassment!
