April 2022 Releases

It took me a bit to get into this drama but as soon as I did, I loved it. The ML is quite cool and Joon Gi portrays another action-prone character (well, he is talented in that field). I like the way that the revenge goes and how the rule of law is established and corruption combated. I recommend this time-travelling revenge drama to those who usually like such tropes. A solid 7.5/10.

YOUKU. Seems interesting.

It's a mediocre fantasy drama combined with comedy, romance and darkness. It is enjoyable but not a masterpiece. But, tbh, not every drama has to be a masterpiece. I still recommend this one if you like fantasy and police work combined. Or if you need a filler drama that is maybe a bit different from what you usually consume.

YOUHUG MEDIA. Seems like my type of drama.

I watched the first 10 eps in one go; however, then I lost almost all motivation to continue. Every now and then I thought about picking the drama back up but I was too annoyed with Taeyang constantly crying, everyone neglecting Taejun and Junyoung just being a bitch. Well, after a very long break from the drama, I picked it back up and finished it within 3 days. Well, it got better. It still wasn't a perfect dramas and there are a few things that could have been done better but I'd still give a solid 7.5/10. The sports aspect fell a bit short, I was wishing for more. And everyone had a redemption arc where they improved their character (apart from Taejun who was an angel from the beginning, and apart from the national trainer lol). Anyway, I'd recommend this drama to those who like romance coupled with sports and who do not shy away from lots of drama, I'd call it a melodrama. I am happy that I didn't drop it, but I wouldn't put it on my 'Top Ten Kdrama' List.

Available online. Filler drama. A short drama with interesting plot.

My Liberation Notes is a high-quality drama that, I believe, everyone can identify themselves with. It spoke to me and my feelings, in the past and the present, in ways that most dramas cannot. It is a slow-burn story so if you want to watch this, brace yourself for that. If you expect a fast-paced rom-com, then you should skip this drama. It is not all happy and rainbows and unicorns (or however you say that). It is a serious, heavy drama, which deserves all the praise.

A hilarious drama with a good love/hate relationship and decent banter. The leads are quite funny and their chemistry is amazing. Maybe the drama wouldn't have needed 16 episodes but they were still fun to watch. I'd say it's deffo a good filler drama. If you like good rom-coms you might want to watch this one.

Viki. Seems interesting and the drama received good feedback.

This one got me quite emotional. I rarely cry (apart from scenes where animals die) but this one got me feeling all the feels. It shows the trash of humanity and the victims of society. I recommend this drama to anyone who doesn't mind feeling very emotional and who wants to watch a high-quality drama about grim reapers.

It's a good drama, which showcased both Lusi and Yang Yang's acting. Their chemistry is really good and I like the main lead's dynamic. The plot is interesting as well and I found myself binging through this drama. There were some aspects of the plot that I found unnecessary but I can overlook that. If you like Wuxia dramas, give this a try. And if you haven't watched Wuxia then this one is a good introduction.
