1. Moving

Korean Drama - 2023, 20 episodes

9.0
- Great CGI
- Unique when it comes to the superhero plot
- Superpowers become a family issue
- Fun to watch
- First half was pretty slow paced and felt like there was no plot
- Generally not that action packed or fast paced as it is advertised
- Second half with the adults was better - especially the last 5 episodes -
- Good acting
- I am looking forward to see more of some of the younger actors that are starring here
- Everything got connected in the second half of the series
- Very entertaining
- Quite bloody - One of the few times that we got to see the result of being hit from a person with superhuman abilities
- Some pretty nice emotional scenes
2. Let's Talk About Chu

Taiwanese Drama - 2024, 8 episodes

10
- Binge-worthy series
- Great acting
- High entertainment value that doesn't fail to offer some emotional moments
- No awkwardness detected between the characters, despite the many sex scenes
- It was more on the realistic side of relationships (no perfect character that wants to hold your hand here)
- Pretty educational - has interesting facts when it comes to sex
- Every couple and every individual character was interesting and fun to watch
- Everyone had decent scree time
- Barely any nude scenes, despite the main sex scenes
- Everything felt ideal when it came to balance
- People in different stages of life - for once the younger people were not the only focu
- Deals with many issues without being over the top or too dramatic
- A very well-made series that unfortunately doesn't get the attention it deserves

7.5
- Great first half
- It gets pretty boring after the firs half and especially after ep. 8 in terms of everything (uncut version didn't help)
- Very unique concept
- Generally a pretty well done project
- Th acting is good enough most of the times (and can get very bad at times)
- Love the romance -until it gets boring-.
- Great dynamics between characters
- Can help you find out more about thai culture
- There is actually a plot for once that doesn't revolve only around the main love story!
- EYE CANDY!
- Yai, I <3 you
- Way too long ter a while both in terms of the main relationship and in terms of the plot
- CGI is not that bad, but not good either
- Feels like they run out of budget to support their idea
- Due to lack of badget some things just looked ridiculous and cheap
- The clothing in the mythical scenes is laughable
- The whole ML as a woman was a big no...

10

- Very entertaining
- Interesting players
- Very well thought out games

9. Spy

Korean Drama - 2024, 16 episodes

5.0
- First four episodes are very good (with pick being the fourth)
- Jo Jung Suk's performance was amazing
- Many of the actors did a pretty good jobs, especially the veterans
- The child actor that starred as Dae Gun should give some acting lessons to some people...
- Politics based
- Good directing
- Non-puppet king for once!
- Darker plot
- Great production quality
- Script was mediocre -to be kind-
- Music was nothing memorable - Unecessary in some scenes
- Each episode could easily be 15-20 minutes shorter
- Jang Young Nam tended to overact as Queen Park
- Cobweb-like beards
- Absence of tension
- Romance aspect made me feel nothing most of the times
- Many clichés
- Very underwhelming, especially towards the end
- Ending was just bad
- Shin Sae Kyeong was very bad (couldn't act as a man despite her disguise, had 2 expressions the whole show and had teary eyes no matter the situation)
- Crew made 0 effort to make the FL look like a man
- FL's character is dumb - everything goes her way, because the script says so, she has 0 plans-
- Writer involves the FL in situations out of nowhere just to include her in the plot
- Drama could work without a FL
- It would work better as a revenge based male VS male lead drama that focuses on politics
10. Royal Loader

Korean Drama - 2024, 12 episodes

2.5
- So bad in all aspects
- Just for hate-watching
- Some of the actors are watchable
- Kang Hee Joo is the only character that is worth it + Actress is great
- Very very badly written
- Unlikable characters that tend to change personalities
- Unreasonable time-skips
- Extremely one-dimensional characters
- Characters tend to appear and disappear when it is convenient for the script
- Looks like scriptwriter wanted the audience to root for the FL and ML, but they are honestly just awful in every aspect
- Felt super draggy at times and at the same time it needed so much more time to develop everything.
- Romance is cringy, unnecessary and makes no sense
- FL is unnecessary and badly written
- Many and I mean many clichés
- Hong Su Zu's acting as Na Hye Won is terrible and seems to make no effort
- Ending was awful like the rest of the series
11. Jazz for Two

9.0
- Not perfect, but extremely entertaining

- Pretty good series
- Could be a few eps less - it got draggy at points
- Main character basically gets ruined again and again even though they did nothing wrong
- First episode is one of the most tragic eps on tv

- Quite slow paced
- The two mains truly helping each other took way too long
- Some things were a bit sudden towards the end
- Very memorable and strong FL
- Generally pretty good acting
- CEW was a blessing for the eyes
- CEW's acting still needs lots of work, buthis character didn't have that much scree time and was also very cold, so it suited him + He was pretty good in the last 2-3eps
- Loved the portrayal of grief
- Unfortunately, constant efforts to make this super sad ending up feeling bland

- I love the village/small town setting
- Deals with many complex and sensitive subjects like stigma and domestic violence
- Romance is very dark and starts of as obsession
