I used to keep track of all the dorama and kdramas I watched in the past, but the website where I had the (hundreds??), of titles recorded was closed down and I didn't even notice until recently. But boy, I've watched a few in the past ten or so years.
Just last year I watched 31 kdramas. That's THIRTY ONE. And only because I started around April, since I was super busy in the first quarter of the year (back when, you know, we actually went to places and saw people).
Thus, one of my survival methods last year was to watch one kdrama after the next. I didn't really have the attention span for reading, and while I wasn't writing I just needed to shut my brain off.
Thank you, kdramas!!!! Your contribution to my mental stability was, and is, so appreciated. Keep it up :)
So, here's the tea. The 31 were only the kdramas I started and finished. I also started a handful others that I ended up DNFing for one reason or another. And as much as I would love to give an extensive review of all 31, I'm afraid my bird brain doesn't remember all the details of each one already, LOL.
That's why I'll give you three types of review in this post. 1) The abridged reviews, quick notes I jotted down after I finished each one. 2) The DNFs and why. 3) The more detailed reviews for notable kdramas (both good and bad).
Warning: I have A LOT of unpopular opinions. Check your visceral reactions at the door.
Let's go!
