Who needs therapy when these dramas exist?
My all time favorites, the ones I never get tired of watching.
-all the 10s from my very strict and demanding conclusion making process-
sorted from heavier to lighter stories, no specific order it's just so it makes sense

1. Dias Melhores
Chinese Movie - 2019
I really wish I could watch it for the first time again...
-
2. Amor à Primeira Vista
Chinese Drama - 2019, 35 episodes
It's just deep and beautiful, I've watched it 4 times and I still get emotional over it.
The way you see them falling for each other/expressing their feeling is just incredible. I love every character so much, that's really rare for me.
Also, Janice Wu and Zhang Yu Jian being married with a kid makes you love them even more ♡

3. Máquina de Escrever Chicago
Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes
Oh god, this one is just amazing. It expresses everything in such a sensitive way that blows my mind how they got it right, since it's so hard for directors to do so.
The way the show love is just breathtaking, how they focus in friendship and it's importance while not losing track or cooling out the romance is a true work of art.
There is a tiny "love triangle", but it's so good because it seriously didn't matter -only when they joked about it-. Since there is no second male lead that great character that is usually just there for the couple doesn't exist, the three of them are just as important. Ah and the guy that didn't get the girl and the one who did, love each other so there's no competition -they only live their lives and consider her feelings, they don't even need to discuss it-.

4. Apenas Entre Apaixonados
Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes
watched it 4 times I think, so freaking amazing.
I get chills just thinking about i.

5. Barcelona: Um Amor Incalculável
Filipino Movie - 2016
The plot is freaking great and well developed. Their approach to the story is so realistic that the movie becomes even more heart touching and beautiful.
Oh their chemistry is insane btw !! I mean it's Daniel Padilla and Kathryn Bernardo, what did you expect? They're the most iconic couple ever (on and behind the screen).
Also, as someone who's had a pretty bad depression, this one hit way too close to home. This type of subject only moves you when it's done right, and they definitely understood the assignment.

6. Mystic Pop-up Bar
Korean Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
heartwarming, sensitive and funny af
Family love expressed in a beautiful way, the romance is a background but it's still really sweet.

7. Chefe Introvertido
Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes
Love this so much, at first everyone tells him to change and become someone else, that really broke my heart. But then they start really seeing him, so they don't want him to be different anymore, they want him to learn how to show people the amazing person he is.
They fit because since they're so different, each one can learn with the other, so they can become better. I love the contrast between the leads, look:
She's loud, comfortable with attention (an actress ), careless and wears her feelings on her sleeve (can't hide them at all).
He's quiet, has social anxiety, misses opportunities due to overthinking and can't express himself in the way he wants to.
yk, in a way, as someone with adhd seeing him being misunderstood and trying so hard to fit in made me see myself in him. This hurts and ruins your self-esteem, we don't have to become a different person, we just have to be the best version of ourselves.
