BL, Romance, Coming of Age

Rewatchable? - Probably not, but I loved it the first time through.

HIStory 1, (Ep 1 on Viki) - I'm not a fan of this one, the humor is crude, & juvenile, it's like it was written by t 12 y/o boy.

After Shao Yi Chen's boyfriend, Jiang Jing Teng, breaks up with him he dies in an accident, but is brought back 9 years earlier. With a new chance at life Shao Yi Chen is determined to change his future, including never meeting Jiang Jing Teng, but fate has other plans.

BL, Romance, Youth, Drama 

⚠️/⛔ ⚔️ ♨️ -  death in accident (blood), Jing Teng doesn't understand consent. Mostly not good for a younger audience because of Jiang Jing Teng's obsession of Shao Yi Chen

Rewatchable? - I want to say no because it's very toxic, but for some reason this episode is a guilty pleasure.

HIStory 1 (Ep 2 on Viki) - This one I do find the couple cute but the story is very rushed, the fujioshi friend is annoying and somewhat toxic. The pseudoincest isn't as bad since they just met and didn't grow up together.

BL, Romance, Drama, Sports, School

⚠️ ☮️ ☢️ ♨️ - a tiny bit of violence at the beginning, swearing, & an intense dream sequence.

Rewatchable? - Maybe, The writing is certainly better than season 1. The MC are kind of cute, I still don't understand why BL has such a thing about step-brothers & pseudoinsest.

BL, Romance, Drama, School

Rewatchable? - No, The writing for season 3 again has improved, but I don't much like Hao Ting and prefer the side couple over the MC. I also choose to believe there are only 9 episodes (or 18 depending on where you watch it.)

BL, Romance, Drama

Rewatchable? - No, there are too many problematic elements for me, I would have liked this version of HIStory much more if it wasn't for the side couple, they are extremely toxic, they give Tharn/Type a run for their money.

Not a continuation of S1 & this could have been a stand alone series as the Kings game isn't really relevant to the plot.

BL, Romance, Youth, Drama

⚠️ ☢️ ⚔️♨️ - swearing, a small bit of violence, a couple steamy scenes

Rewatchable? - Probably not, it's only OK, not great, but not actually bad either.

BL, Romance, School, Youth, Drama

⛔ ☢️ ♨️ -    I'd say closer to 15 than 18,  swearing and a few steamy scenes

Rewatchable? - I don't know, it was so hard to watch Oh-aew's heartbreak, but the drama was well done, and I wasn't even mad at the ending like I thought I was going to be.

Teh and Oh-aew were best friends until a childhood misunderstanding & jealousy turned them into rivals. Years later they met again while taking university prep Chinese language class. This brings up old rivalries and new and intense feeling.

BL, Romance, Drama, Youth

Rewatchable? - Maybe, Billkin & Krit did a great job, their chemistry is good and their emotions are so believable, my one complaint would be Billkin's crying scenes, they're not good, and there are a few of them in eps 4& 5

BL, Romance, Life, Youth 

✅ ☮️  - fairly sweet and very innocent

Rewatchable? - Probably not, I found the beginning quite fragmented, and as a whole a little boring. Maybe I just wasn't in the mood for the slow pace.

BL, Friendship, Romance, School, Youth

⚠️ ⛔ ⚔️ ♨️ -  probably 15+, fighting, a bit of bullying, not actually a steamy scene, it's SA

Rewatchable? - Not for me, the last episode ruined an otherwise Meh drama.

I like this one, fairly sweet

Romance, Comedy, Drama, Medical

Rewatchable? - Not for me, ok it was mostly sweet, and the chemistry of the main couple was very good, but the way the women were written irritates me, they are far to old to be that immature. eesh.

It's goofy, corny and a tad cringy at times but it's a fun watch, remember it's a short web drama so give it some slack.

Not bad, probably won’t rewatch

Comedy, Romance, Drama, Medical

Rewatchable? Yes & No, I loved it, I love Se Gi and think Ji Sung was amazing, but the shrill screaming and somewhat violent personality of the FL put me off.

Military, Comedy, Romance, Drama

Rewatchable? - Yes, this drama sucked me in almost as much as Moon Lovers, although I doubt I'll rewatch it quite as much, but it's still worth rewatching.

On the other side he finds a parallel world where he meets Jeong Tae Eul, a police lieutenant with whom he had a previous encounter on the day his father was murdered. 

Mystery, Romance, Drama, Sci-Fi

Rewatchable? - Maybe if I give it a few years again. I love the drama up to episode 12, but the last 4 episodes really irritate me.

BL, Romance, School, Youth, Supernatural

⚠️⚔️ -  I can't really call it sweet, there's a bit of violence, it is a vampire drama

Rewatchable? -  Maybe, it's not bad, but there are other BLs I'd rewatch first

Action, Thriller, Mystery, Romance

Rewatchable? - Maybe, but I'd skip a lot after ep 32. This is far from my normal drama, there are so many things in it I normally hate, but somehow I loved it, at least until it dragged on, and on, going in circles. Some reviews I read didn't like the ending but I didn't mind it, it's not perfect, but it's ok in my book.

By the time they admit their feelings, Ichi had started dating Tadokoro, but that isn't going to stop Ichi and Narita from being together.

Romance, Drama

Rewatchable? - Not for me, I don't like cheating as the main subject in a drama, the one thing I really liked though was the format, first they'd show Narita's version and thoughts of events, and then they'd show Ichi's version and thoughts.

Mystery, Comedy, Romance, Fantasy, Melodrama

Rewatchable? - Yes, as long as I fast forward through some of the sibling drama. It's a little too angsty for me otherwise.

I guess I liked S2 more than a lot of people

This fierce loyalty fascinates Tin and his feelings quickly change from animosity to love. The first 6 episodes are a retelling of Tin/Can from season 1.

BL, Drama, Romance, University

⚠️☢️ ⚔️ ♨️ -  Swearing, violence - more emotional abuse than physical, very suggestive and a couple steamyish scenes.

Rewatchable? - Yes, I liked this second season better than the 1st, if I fast forward through AE & his crying, it becomes tedious.
