◣ 2020 COMPLETED DRAMAS ◥
And small reviews
-
1. Holograma Mea Iubită
Korean Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
I was waiting for so long for this drama since I love AI and robots. I liked the acting, a nice fresh drama and as it being a netflix produced drama it had high quality production which I always like.

2. Love Better Than Immortality
Chinese Drama - 2019, 40 episodes
I started it on a whim one day but was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. Great acting and story which made you forget about the low budget. HOWEVER how did they do such a terrible job with them wigs and makeup?? I still get nightmares about Li Hong Yi's awful wig..Also it would be a 10/10 from me if it was 10 eps less.

3. The Romance of Tiger and Rose
Chinese Drama - 2020, 24 episodes
Really good acting. chemistry and plenty of funny scenes. Also I liked the originality of the story and as a writer I enjoyed it a lot. It got annoying the last 1-2 eps for me so that's why it's a 9.5

4. Regele, Monarhul Etern
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
What can I say about this dissapointment. How did such a great writer make this awful story? How did I finish it but still don't know what the heck happened? Overall too many characters with not enough room to expand on them all individually so most of them felt flat, romance was completely unnecessary, editing was weird and half the time we didn't know what world it was, what time it was, what day e.t.c. and let's not talk about the confusing storyline... Some scenes and OSTs were good tho.

5. 365: Repeat the Year
Korean Drama - 2020, 24 episodes
Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, showstopper, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to refferace or not refferace, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it . Suspense, mystery and plot twists in each ep, it keeps you on the edge of your seat and the eps (12) are just enough

6. Memorist
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
I love serial killer dramas not for any other reason but cause I love pretending I'm Sherlock Holmes and finding who the killer is before they show us, then be like " well I knew it ". All of the eps. were great but the reveal was.... let's just say most of the watchers' theories were 100 times better than what it actually was in the drama.

7. Good Casting
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
I was planning on watching this one cause I had heard from a few people that it was good and I was pleasantly surprised about how much I came to like it at last. It's a mix between an action spy drama, comedy and a bit of romance, just enough though. The editing and OSTs were really good too. Lee Sang yeob's character was incredibly cute in this drama >_<

8. The Zombie Detective
Korean Drama - 2020, 24 episodes
A lot of "comedy" dramas keep the comedy aspect for the first half of the drama while the rest of the eps are filled with what looks to be your typical angsty melodrama and maybe bring the comedy back on the last ep. I don't like this inconsistency cause when I say I wanna watch comedy I don't mean that I want some hidden angst in there too. Well this drama in comparison was surprisingly consistent with the comedy, I had fun watching all the eps except I didn't really like the last couple of eps and some gory parts ( I'm a well known scaredy cat >.<) so...a 9 ! Hoping for a 2nd season btw

9. Kkondae Intern
Korean Drama - 2020, 24 episodes
Extremely funny and entertaining in the first half I would say but then it seemed like the two protagonists (Ga Yeol Chan and Lee Man Shik ) who were an amazing duo had less and less screentime which was instead given to secondary characters that nobody cared about, plus I ended up hating most of the characters and the ending...yep.

10. Tale of the Nine-Tailed
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Ha ha... here we go for one of the biggest dissapointments of 2020 for me. Why did they give me so much hope that this would be absolutely spectacular? First eps were amazing and intriguing, then it went downhill with bad writing that made the characters seem extremely selfish and the once brave ones became weaklings... and let's not talk about the last ep -_- It's still an 8 from me though cause it gave us one of the best and most well written characters, Lee Rang and at the end of the day I truly didn't hate any character. Plus ep. 9 deserves a freaking 10/10 on its own!

11. Pretty Li Hui Zhen
Chinese Drama - 2017, 46 episodes
Something I wouldn't normally watch from the weird looking poster to the not so promising trailer. But I gave it a try and it was actually great, I felt close to all of the characters, it kept me company when I was stressed with school, the female lead is very funny and charming, definitely the best character of the drama. After the 1st ep I realized it was the remake of " She was pretty" which I hated cause no one but the 2nd lead was likeable to me. In this one tho they had the chance to expand on each character and make them all likeable. I cried a bit when I finished it cause 40 eps. were a long way to go so I was emotionally connected to the characters. It's a simple drama with some cringy moments, a very chill one as well, but that's what made it enjoyable. It would be a 10/10 if it was 30 eps instead

12. High-end Crush
Korean Drama - 2015, 20 episodes
A short 4 hour long drama, though in comparison to other short dramas it didn't feel incomplete. I was surprised by how funny Jung Il Woo was in this. I really liked it and laughed in each ep.
-
13. SF8: Love Virtually
Korean Special - 2020, 1 episode
A nice cute drama special. Nothing special though, I didn't gain anything from it storywise, the characters' relationships were pretty flat, but I will say I loved the directing and the beautiful cityscape.
-
14. Ghostderella
Korean Drama - 2019, 4 episodes
I watched it in order to complete my 2020 watch challenge. Even though it was nice, like I see the potential for a full story, what was the point of it?? It's 40 mins long and nothing really happens honestly. It felt like the 1st ep. of a drama so I can't really give a full opinion on it
-
15. Oh My Ghostess
Korean Drama - 2015, 16 episodes
(REWATCH)
I rewatch this every year. A nice chill drama with leads that have great chemistry. A guilty pleasure drama for me ^-^
-
16. Break the Silence: The Movie
Korean Movie - 2020
[MOVIE]
A beautiful experience!! T_T I felt so good watching this ^^
-
17. Cenușăreasa și Cei Patru Cavaleri
Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes
A drama I had previously dropped a long time ago. A lot of people don't like this drama and I didn't either at the beginning cause I was having major Second Lead Syndrome and thought the ML was a jerk. But as I picked it up again now it became a guilty pleasure, since I didn't have high expectations and skipped through any scene I didn't care about. The main couple is cute and the whole drama is enjoyable with barely any sad moments. I didn't really like the last 2 eps. tho so I'm giving it a 9 mainly cause I had fun watching it ^^
This drama has a LOT of flaws but I guess I was wearing heart glasses while watching this cause I actually liked it. So If you watch this with no expectations and don't take it seriously it's a guaranteed fun time while watching.

18. Backstreet Rookie
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Quite surprising and funny at first, though very draggy and cringy at the last 3 eps.
Also due to the big age gap the romance scenes were non existant even though their chemistry was very good!
