November 21 -- (on-hold)

July 22 -- (on-hold)

-- Why my heart is aching this much?! This drama is good. But not an easy watch.

-- Update on Jan 1st, 23: Since it was not an easy watch, I had to put it on hold. Wishing to complete it someday.

December 22 -- (on-hold)

-- I can't breathe while watching this. It gives the same vibe of the "Extracurricular"s darkness. Loving it!!

January 23 -- (on-hold)

-- With my very high expectations, it still doesn't make me upset, thankfully. Loving it so far!
-- Since Netflix removed the drama from its network, I had to put it on hold, unfortunately. (Feb'23)

February 23 -- May 24

-- I have mixed feelings about this drama. It touches on sensitive topics but I am not sure if their way of doing it is the best or not. Hoping to see better episodes next.

-- Story 1- New Ship: I loved this one. The criticism was on point and the story was portrayed pretty well. The chemistry between Pan and Nott and the acting was pretty good. 8.5/10.

-- Story 2- War of Managers: I don't think Bew deserved what he received from people around him, to be honest. What he had done was not forgivable in my opinion. Exception for that unnecessary ending, I liked this story. 7.5/10.

-- Story 3- Y-Idol: I think this story was also similar to the past two because the message wanted to be given was the same. Passionate boys make mistakes and suffer from them. I don't understand why this show's ratings are so low because I don't think it's that bad. I especially liked the very realistic dynamics between idols-to-be boys. I know it was kinda mess but also the way they put the problematic side of the industry was great. 7/10.

-- Story 4 - Wife: Not bad, the acting also the storyline were weak but the message was clear. I liked it. 7/10.

--  As the final opinion, I don't think this drama deserves the hate it receives. I liked how they pointed out all the disastrous things that keep happening under the umbrella of the BL drama industry. Good job kiddos! It's fascinating that you had the passion and heart to put it on screen. 

August 23 -- (on-hold)

-- Watching my two faves together is such a pleasure. Hope the story turns out better in the next episodes.

August 23 -- (on-hold)

-- Despite its long screen time for each episode, I love this. It's entertaining and easy to watch. I admire how genuine PSJ is. He will be my forever bias. 

September 23 -- May 24

-- I actually like this one. Thinking of it, web dramas seem to have short screen time but in total, they're not that short. Being in a slump of web dramas plays with my mind so I keep watching them. lol.

-- I liked it in total. The acting and the story were good even though it was predictable. Worth watching.

August  22 -- (ongoing)

-- I am not ever gonna get tired of watching them. lil' babies. ma babies. luv u!!

December 22 -- (ongoing)

-- This show starts with their teen-ages and melts my heart, my little ones are so cute and literally are babies!!

-- Jan 2024: I will never get bored of seeing them. Hope this show lasts forever! lol.

February 23 -- (ongoing)

-- SKZ: All episodes were just great. They are all lovely and superior imo. They never disappoint me. Ma babies ^^

-- TXT: I didn't expect this much cuteness from them. Loved all. I'll stan them for real starting with this show. lol.

-- Monsta X: I did not enjoy it much like the others. They are only friends but not best friends imo. I dunno, maybe because it feels like they behave a little too manly like not naturally but forced to be.

-- ATZ: This program made me know them better than their own shows for sure. Thanks, weekly idol! hehe

- SHINee: Seeing Jonghyun as lively as he used to be in this show makes me feel his non-existence is not real. I didn't like those old fellas as the MCs of the show btw. Thank God they left before I discovered the show.

April 23 -- (ongoing)

-- Boys are lovely for sure but the quality of the show is not the best so it is not able to pass their cuteness and sincereness how it is supposed to be. I still love them tho! Hellooo *insert Jackson Wang from China's "annyeonghaseyo!" here*, my new crushes!! lol.

-- It got better in 2023's episodes and I am loving them. I especially love San's innocence despite his cold image. ^^

January -- April

-- This one is dark and bold as hell but loving it whatever.
-- The darkness and the despair of Hokuto give me chills.  I wish no person in the world had to have psychological damage.
-- I totally agree with this comment: "Absolutely unsparing in its examination of child abuse and its effects, this drama is not for the faint of heart. It is uncomfortable and will leave you shaken. It will also provoke you to consider different perspectives of what you may have considered a slam dunk issue. Heart-wrenching in its simple narration, I was moved to tears in the end.
Nakayama Yuma was outstanding. The writing was outstanding."
-- A must-watch drama!!

January

-- The quality of the drama was not good and the story was kind of cliche but still watchable especially because of Kang Ha Neul. ^^

January

-- Old but good.

January

-- I feel like I will throw up because of how cringe their love story is. lol. But they are still cute somehow.  
-- I watched this so you don't. Please don't. Because you might have a nervous breakdown of its cliches. lol. They didn't even try to make this drama bearable, why would you bother watching it then?

January

-- Aaaaahh this was soooooo cute I was going to die of sweetness.  
-- I am in love with that lovely-eyed boy, Akutsu Nichika. He is so beautiful. He looks like the Japanese version of Daniel Radcliffe with that eyeglasses!!

January

-- Boys were cute, but the script was cliche. I know it was based on true events, but something was still missing.  I liked it in total.

January

-- This was a second quick watch since I watched this a time ago but didn't remember exactly when. Chan's part was the most entertaining for me. 

February -- March

-- This drama's genre is pretty familiar to me but, I am still loving it. All the leads and also support characters are the best. Loved the story and also how they delivered it. A must-watch.

February

-- Uhm, this was too cute to criticize. I need a Sahara sensei for myself, too, ASAP. lol. I appreciate Japanese writers because of their capability to create different perfect boyfriend material-type characters.

February

-- Low budget, cliche, tried to touch a sensitive topic but failed. Not sure if it was worth watching. But Tommy Alejandrino did a good job, for sure. And Rabin Josh gave me good moments with his beautiful face when he was on screen. lol

February

-- Oh my.  Lee Tae Vin was too lovely in this drama and caused me to have a crush on him! I wish the side characters and also his partner were as good as him. Anyway, it still was a good one.

February

-- Nooo ma baby Felix.  Nooo Linoya!!! Ugh, I wasn't expecting a sad story from this one. 

February

-- I liked how it felt good even though what exactly happened was not shown.

February

-- This was not that bad I didn't get why the ratings were so low.  Anyways, I think this short show was a nice friendship vs first love story. Liked it.

March -- April

-- I wish this would never end. I wish there were many more seasons. I loved it a lot!!

March -- 

-- Aah ma baby JCW, why do you keep choosing the wrong shows? I mean this one is not that bad but not on your level either.  

March --

-- Kai is such an ace, I adore him. His shows never get me bored. 

March

-- The acting was great, but the story was messed up. It was so hard to track the storyline and who was who. Otherwise, my eyes had been blessed with Apo and been so happy. lol.

March

-- I will be honest about this drama and say it was perfect except for the being gay vs heterosexual part. I understand people can realize their sexual orientation late but still, I don't want to feel that 'I am gay for you' trope in dramas anymore.  
-- I thought about myself while watching it and realized I was a person exactly like Hiro in my work-life. What he had been through was the same as mine and made me think of how messed up my life was. It felt a bit bitter but also gave me hope to fix things. It brought me deep meanings and made my day brighter thankfully.  #grateful

March

-- Bland. I don't even know why I didn't drop this.

March

-- This drama was the one that was missed for a long time and a nice ride because of its high school and also college life theme. I loved the friendship and the first love at the school vibe like we had in old Thai-BL dramas. But couldn't rate it higher with that cliche storyline. Sorry. Not bad and good for a daily watch in total.

March

-- I cannot say that I liked the camera games aka cinematography, but I loved the friendship. I had a great time while watching these two. 

March

-- My babies are still babies here, in the real meaning. I feel like a proud mama as an old stay. lol

March

-- I binged this almost in one sit and it was worth it for sure. I liked the characters and how their relationships developed. 

March

-- I loveed Kan Hideyoshi in this drama. The story had cliche parts but also adult-life themes so it was worth watching in total.

April -- May

-- The first episode was great, I loved everything about it. The second was not the best as the first episode but I also liked it a lot. I can't wait to watch the rest. This one will be one of my favorites of this year no doubt. 

-- My heart is all in pieces. This drama breaks my heart then puts it together right after to break it again. It is a masterpiece, I don't want it to end.

April --

-- I don't think I would watch the whole thing because of its horror theme but will give it a try.

April -- 

-- It's a drama that is not going to be easily watched for sure. I have deep and controversial feelings about this drama. I wonder what I will think about it if I manage to finish it. Let's see!

April

-- Cliche love triangles... Suddenly appearing ex-lovers.. Characters that late in love confessions...There is nothing impressive, it is only good for light watching.

April

-- I don't actually like this type of capitalist craft. I understand Army would buy them even though they don't do the design but still, I don't like it...

April

-- I liked both leads and their characters also how the story developed. Mental health-related issues and characters are not easy to put together for a drama script, also a bit risky, but this one was definitely worth watching.

April

-- It was good enough in the first half, then got weak after. So both couples' semes did horrible things to ukes and suddenly realized their love for them with no explaining story behind their unloveable behavior? It would have been better if they put more effort into the story development between couples. Things did not make sense at the end at all.

April (dropped, 1/10)

-- I really and hardly tried watching it but was not my cup of tea.  

April (dropped, 1/5)

-- I did not like the storytelling. It was so bland.

May -- 

-- The first episode was kind of disappointing, hope it turns out better. 

May

-- This one was what I exactly needed at the time! Such a cute and light drama full of laughter.

May

-- I was waiting for this drama for a long time!! Excited!

-- The first episode blew my mind! How the hell did they predict the future? I am speechless.
-- The rest was good too. I was expecting more from it but still is one of the best J-dramas for sure.

May

-- A good drama to binge. Never bored while watching it.

May

-- I don't understand why Taiwanese dramas are obsessed with step-brother love. It doesn't feel okay to normalize. I accept it under some circumstances but not like in this one. I am a supporter of the LGBTQ community but this is not about the gender. What they show in this drama is not something I can judge only as love. Love comes in different forms and family is a form of it. Why do they need to mix it up this much? It might be a cultural thing and is not my cup of tea. Sorry.

May

-- It was definitely worth watching. The acting was phenomenal. The only thing I am really upset about is the length of the episodes. It could have been better if they made it a 16-episode-long full drama rather than 6 episodes with 25 mins...  
-- P.S: I am officially in love with Furuya Robin ❤️

May

-- A hidden gem!! I loved it even though it was amateur and low-budget. It has been such a long time since I felt like this. That heavy grayness was so damn dominant as the title says itself. Also the short but meaningful conversations, and the tension that never decreased... Let's not forget that lovely intro also the music... All was lovely. A must-watch.

May

-- I can't help but rate it higher than it deserves because of how nice the aftertaste is. The storytelling was cute and I liked how they kept it casual and not complicated. It also had good coming-of-age messages.  And so I rated it 8. lol. 

-- By the way, Jung Yeo Joon was shining as Choi Balg Eum, he has a bright future ahead. Also my boy, Kim Sung Hyun, you're lovely and good at acting. Wishing both of you success and happiness (:
