Healing Slice-of-Life Dramas
Most extraordinary journeys begin with the simplest things in life...

1. Go Ahead
Chinese Drama - 2020, 46 episodes
3 children from 3 different families growing up under the wings of 2 hardworking single dads.
This is a very heart-warming story about how familial love can become even stronger than blood ties if given the right care and nurture. The settings make me feel really nostalgic of my own childhood. Seven Tan, Song Wei Long and Steven Zhang are such an adorable trio that you can't help but fall in love with. There's a hint of romance in the second half, but at its heart this drama is very much about family bonds and values.

2. Hospital Playlist
Korean Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
What's the chance of 5 classmates ending up working as surgeons in the same hospital?
This is just like watching 5 best friends having fun like the good old times. Each brings a different perspective on the struggles of their own medical specialty, and a different type of quirkiness. Meet the jokester, the priest-wannabe, the secret softie, the quiet realist and the workaholic glutton. I love their weekly band practices, funny banters, pettiness over little things and giddiness over each other's love life. It's hilarious how they all look down on Mi Do's tone deafness in the drama when in real life she's a well-known musical singer while they're just amateurs, well except for Jung Suk that is.
Personally, my favourite character is Jung Won. He's so tactless and naive sometimes but so cute with children, fitting for paediatrician. His mini-romance with Gyeo Wool is super endearing.

60. Jing Cha Rong Yao
Chinese Drama - 2022, 38 episodes
We often overlook the fact that most police spend their lifetimes dealing with social issues and resolving daily disputes, rather than catching serial killers or drug smugglers like in crime thrillers. Through the lens of 4 new police recruits, we get to witness that being a police is more than just a display of heroism, it also involves learning about humanity, humility and teamwork. Each recruit has a different background and different struggles that they must overcome to become a good cop. The friendship between the 4 of them is dorky and hilarious but also very supportive and reassuring.
While I appreciate the realistic portrayal of the daily lives of police, I still find some of the characters a bit frustrating to watch. From Xia Jie's overprotective mother to Yang Shu's ambitious master and his insufferable in-laws. And what's more, when you start to think they've changed for the better, they would immediately revert back to their bad habits. I guess you can say that human nature doesn't change sometimes.
