December 2020 Releases
December 2020 dramas on my Watchlist.
-
1. Growing
Korean Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
It's a fairly short drama that explores sex, relationships and connected issues. I liked the concept; however, I wasn't a huge fan of the characters. I couldn't get a feeling for them nor feel like they had character, which might have been caused by the acting as it wasn't good either. Essentially, this drama was a quick watch, which didn't require lots of thinking. That's why I watched it. However, I would not recommend this drama as there are better short dramas out there. The drama didn't really have any depth to it.

Chinese Drama - 2020, 45 episodes
Available online. Seems like my type of drama.

3. The Legend of Fei
Chinese Drama - 2020, 51 episodes
I found this drama a bit difficult to watch. The first 2 eps were a bit unassuming but, then, the drama quickly became super interesting. I liked the fight scenes, though, the choreographies were not always the best (same goes for the cgi). I reckon the drama fulfills what it promises and in that aspect I truly enjoyed "Legend of Fei". Nonetheless, eps 44-48/49 were quite boring and a bit infuriating. Characters, which supposedly evolved, behaved as badly as they did in earlier episodes. The last eps were great again. I will rate this a 7.5/10 as I did enjoy the drama but had to fast-forward quite a bit, especially in the end. There were some small unresolved questions but all in all, it was a successful drama. I can deffo recommend this one. With a few tiny changes, I would have easily rated this drama an 8.5/10. A huge bonus point: The chemistry between the leads was incredible. I truly enjoyed watching them and at times felt as if I was intruding.

5. Aleargă!
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
This is such a healthy drama. Both leads approach their relationship very maturely and the secondary couple is also amazing. I absolutely loved this drama for that. Also, the FL did not let others bully her. Super cute, light and funny. I can recommend everyone watching this drama. A good 9/10!
Watched: Some time before 2022.

6. Blade of the Phantom Master
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Available online. Filler drama.
-
7. Casa Dulce Casa
Korean Drama - 2020, 10 episodes
It took me a second attempt to get into the drama (the CGI made it impossible for the first time) and I have enjoyed the journey. It is quite good and I binged it while waiting at the airport to fly home (due to troubles with public transport I arrived at the airport 10 hours before check-in). It is deffo worth the watch and the recommendation!

11. Frumusețe Adevărată
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Ngl, I did not enjoy this drama. I started it with my friends and then finished it alone. I don't like the story or the characters. The actors were decent though. I know that there were quite a lot of people who loved this drama, so don't let yourself get influenced by me. I just did not like several of the messages this drama put across and some of the plot developments.
