Acting and dialogues is all what matters, worth watching
Drama Special Season 13: Let's Meet in an Unfamiliar - 9/10 -short kmovievery nice low cost romance movie with about 1 hour watchtime.
I love this type of low cost movie. Where people are practically in same place whole time. Such movies are free from most distractions and you can focus on story, dialogues and acting quality.
plot - FL and ML are two unfortunate souls which got COVID-19 and ended up being quarantined in treatment center. They both are in separate :cells: and to get rid of boredom they talk to each other through window. This way they get familiar with each other without seeing their faces, just by knowing their voice and their stories.
genre - romance

well made story of rekindling an old flame
Our Beloved Summer - 8,5/10 kdramafirstly I am in kinda drama slump now and to even start this one I had to force myself. It was really good, but I cant say it saved me from slump.
Drama at start tends to skip between past and present timeline, but its done quite well.
This drama got really high quality story which is quite on :ordinary life side:. I mean characters backstory aint really ordinary like silver spoon, celebrity, :single parent family child etc. But happenings in this drama are modestly ordinary at least if you compare it to most kdramas.
Chemistry... yeah it was there, but again not in some passionate or cute way[was cute sometimes].
Yeah this drama will show you more of relationship based on old feelings which still lasts and some kind of spiritual solace between main leads.
plot - at high school ML and FL was part of documentary which became successful thanks their very different school social standing and personality which resulted in nonstop clashes and bickering through whole documentary. Later on they ended up as couple for five years just to go through hard break up.
Now 10 years after documentary aired it became viral again and both leads was pushed into joining new documentary about their life now. Will such sudden meet up after 5 years from break up, spark a fire between main leads again?
genre - romance, school, love/hate. second chance

love and break up story which should be posible just in asia
One Spring Night (2019) -8,5/10 -kdramaI really loved soundtrack in this one. Mainly Rachael Yamagata songs. They used them very often for alike situations in drama which made it quite consistent and easy to point out.
In this drama I very often felt cultural differences and how :traditional mindset: can fuck up life even drama.
Its quite mature piece and at start I liked maturenes of ML and FL. At start ML was quite decisive and made clear-cut in relationships. At same time FL had mindset to do all right.
Sadly it didnt went like that for long. FL got irresolute and lacked braveness. ML coulnt keep his stance either. Whole drama ended in way :true love: vs whole world.
At some times characters was acting quite mature and made nice and right decisions., but there was time when you as watcher know its bad decision and I believe even main characters knew its bad decision still they went with it cause they wasnt brave enough to push it through opposition.
plot - FL is dating for long time with one guy, but their relationship lacks spark. FL ends up being asked to marry her boyfriend, but she gets cold feet and decides for some kinda :soft break up:.
Meanwhile she meets ML and starts feeling something for him. ML is pharmacist which likes FL, but he is single father and in eyes of public unsuited for relationship.
+- Its story about FL and ML getting together though FL still didnt decisively broke up with her boyfriend and they will have to brave through opposition of FL family, mainly father.
genre - romance

slice of life high school - college - work drama
My Calorie Boy - 9/10 cdramaafter long time its first high school youth drama I really enjoyed.
Usually its hard for me empathize with highschoolers since its been too long when I was living student life moreover asian schools are quite different to European ones.
this drama is slice of life which changes main focus as story progress it starts with friendship bonding continues with romance seeking later on future path picking and getting through obstacles like tests and parents and this way it continues.
Romance part is quite slowburn mainly cause protagonists are young and writer evidently wanted mix relationships its why he went to usual route of main leads miscommunications and being dumb to their own feelings.
plot - ML comes to highschool as new transfer student he is quite fatso and foodie but top student . Right first day he meets FL and becomes her classmate,desk-mate and friend. ML and FL both gets crush on their classmates. ML and FL makes pact which will help them with their romance life. ML helps FL with studies meanwhile FL helps ML with weight loss.

nice story which can live though test of time
The Classic (2003) - 8,5/10 kmoviestory is nice two generation romance. +- its about daughter reading love letters of her mother and learning about her school romance
Of course drama got another storyline which is daughters current romance.
Overall even this movie is quite old it was funny and melodramatic at same time. Whole movie got about 2 hours, but more or less first 1,5hours is slow storytelling for both timelines an last 30 mins are climax of whole movie which connects both timelines together.
plot - FL[1968] is daughter of high official, but one summer she was at vacation viciting her uncle in countryside and found her first love[ML[1968]]. Later on they both meet at Seul, but into their love comes third guy which is officially engaged to FL[1968]. Continues their lovestory.

cute, homely romance
__*Once Upon a Small Town (2022)*__ 8,5/10 -kdramaok story is pretty basic and even its same rating from me I think Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha (2021) did a bit better for this theme. At least even it got tag comedy at MDL I didnt found much of it here + it was almost one man show. Meanwhile hometown got excelent support roles.
this drama was very much carried by main female lead[Joy], like through drama I think I grew affection for women in uniform which I am sure I never had.
Ok enough joking truthfully her cute, klutz, smiling image doesnt really fit for policewoman work[like who would respect her?] still for work in small village it may work. Still her role was most enjoyable to watch in this drama.
__*plot*__ - ML works as a veterinarian in Seoul. He is popular for his face, but he is classic introverted guy which hates hassle. One day he got serious call from his grandfather from countryside. In hurry he arrives there just to discover he was pranked into being director of vet clinic in that countryside for half year in stead of his grandfather which goes on trip around world with his grandmother. In this countryside he meet super nosy pokicewoman which for some reason shows alot around him but at same time seems to have beef with him.

fun to watch, mystery plot aint very good though
I Am Nobody (2023) 8,5/10 -cdramasuperpower wuxia modern drama which makes fun of itself and at same time tries to be mysterious and serious.
Comedy works here very well and I liked these funny dumb scenes.
Fantasy superpower setting and fights made this drama into something alike Moving[shortly fun to watch].
At other hand pseudo mystery and search for answer made me remember one much more worse drama - Psych-Hunter (2020) which was kinda same in way :mystery doesnt means you need logical answer:
ok mine plot description will be little weird ? ... you can seek out some synopsis on net.
plot - in the world are superhumans called Outsiders. ML is Outsider student living for more than decade as normal person, cause of his grandfather violent and mysterious death. Sadly for him Outsiders world finds him and destroys his normal life for knowledge which his grandfather hid. ML will slowly dvelve into Outsiders world with help of enigmatic girl which makes him his :slave:

idea nice, excecution average
Soundtrack #2 (2023) - 8/10 kdramafirstly they would do better if they named it differently. Aside of director[+ here aint only one as in #1] and some music theme this drama got nothing what would connect it to #1. They try ride on successful short drama just to make watchers disappointment.
Vibe and story type is different. Moreover chemistry is quite lacking[average]. Story about reunited exes was interesting, I could put up even with triangle which they forcefully got there. Still in these 6 eps they didnt managed to dig into it. I practically didnt felt any fear of FL ending with second male.
Only good points I can give is for FL... I liked her other dramas and got no much problems with her here.
plot - ML is workaholic rich CEO which ends up with medical troubles. As part of rehabilitation he ought to learn play on piano, but his piano instructor is his ex-girlfriend which broke up with him few years ago when he was still poor. Will these lessons heal even his old heartbreak injuries?

wanted be emotional sport movie, but lacks something
Invisible Fist (2019) - 8/10 cmovieLets start where to find it - I had to visit Chinese site to watch it luckily it got eng subtitles
http://www.videochina.org.cn/2022/0407/8344.shtml
unless you want wait for weirdly long video loadings every 15 min, install some downloaded[jdownloader etc] and download whole video from site.
Since its boxing type movie I am comparing it mostly to western production. And in such case 8 as average or [B rating] is about right.
Story of this movie is great and it had great potential. Sadly if I use allegory this story is as big tree with alot of branches which are all trimmed and cut short very early.
If they focused on few of these branches more rather than just showing little of everything. This movie would be great.
Shortly they try to affect emotionally watchers, but they show too little and too clumsily[maybe actors fault] to really pull watcher into story.
Mike Tyson cameo etc is nice bonus.
plot- Good boxer lost his pregnant wife and ended up with retarded son without hand[ML]. As single father he raises his son as best he can and teaches him little of his old art[boxing]. ML as adult he disregarded his father’s opposition to the boxing and becomes professional boxer even with his handicap.

warning!! Can make you sad.
Soul Mate (2016) -9/10 - cmovieloved Zhou Dong Yu in Better Days... and this movie I love even more.
Got same feeling,,,, quite sure cause it got same director[Derek Tsang]
whole movie is some kind of diary type of novel about two best female friends growing up and slowly being separated by life and their choices. And at same time being reconnected later in their lives.
Their connection was portrayed very strongly... almost took this movie for lesbian one[which didnt happened and I am weirdly quite sad for such].
plot - ok wrote most of it above. Two girls becomes best friends from young age, but gets later separated ... partly cause of guy. One is staying at hometown living humble normal live. Other is wandering through world. Later in time they will reconnect their relationship just to lose it again. Both of them goes through circle of life separated and connected at same time.

average drama. If it was shorter it may get better
South Wind Knows (2023) -8/10 cdramathis drama feels like very long story split to about ten story arcs. Aside from quite nice chemistry between main leads I enjoyed just about 2 story arcs from whole drama.
to explain it little more main story of ML and FL romance is there, but there is always something what changes, for example they separate for some reason and they meet at different place with different background story + very often these separation or change is story are very Makjang style, cause of characters making dumb decisions.
plot - FL is doctor, ML is silver spoon researcher for pharmaceutical company. Both leads meets in an underprivileged region while working and finds feelings for each other.

4eps drama... short, funny, romantic, cute, little of fairy-tale ...binge it
Fanletter, Please (2022) - 8,5/10 -short kdrama4eps drama... short, funny, romantic, cute, little of fairy-tale
In my opinions its second best drama of Choi Soo Young right after Run On.
plot - ML is single father with very sick kid. His kid is big fan of FL which is well known actress and she often writes fanleters to her.. ML once as white lie writes back to his child in name of FL, but kids cant keep their mouth shut and whole thing gets to media alerting FL. Weirdly FL and ML are old highschool classmates with complicated past too.

generic school cdrama which is weirdly unique
Professional Single (2020) -8/10 cdramathis drama is puzzle for me...
story is dumb school romcom with no innovation[dont think by brain just watch by eyes], :villain: is just sticky girl which dont get NO as answer quite weak and annoying. Second ML couldnt be more generic and FL is epitome of :ugly girl:[ok I am exaggerating here... but she cant be called beauty nor cute, more average]
Still I quite enjoyed it.
plot - ML and FL are art school students... ML is :cold prince of campus:. FL is average student girl. They both get into few accidents in which ML starts feel something for FL. Well and story continues with classic theme.

good drama but wants alot patience
__*Rattan (2021)*__ - 8/10 cdramavery nice and good drama, but with :very steep learning curve:[probably used it wrong way].
I mean whole drama got 30 eps and for me first 20 eps was like hell of boredom, aside of few nice scenes I was totally uninterested in that bring out mystery thing.
At other hand last 10-11 eps made up for it, but cant score it higher cause 2/3 of whole drama was hell.
__*plot*__ - FL is some kind of mutant between aliens DNA and rattan. She managed to look and live as human.At other hand between humans existed clans hunting these aliens. In 1939 she was killed and buried in woods. One day ML now in year 2020 ended up in car accident and made bloody mess on her grave. His blood managed to revive FL and :connect: FL and ML into kinda symbiotic relationship. FL wants find out how she died and what happened to her killer. Meanwhile ML becomes kinda buttler for Fl since he can leave far from her.

Worth to see. Something alike X-Men
__*Moving(2023)*__ - 9/10 -kdramaits mainly action, :nation war: drama something like X-Men if mutants are breed and trained by nations and used in as secret agents in their wars.
For me action storyline aint anything precious you can see such theme and scenes alot in western movies. I liked romance parts. Whole drama time skips from one story to another making complete story.
For example in few eps you get story of kids in later eps you get story about their parents how they met etc.
Overall this series of drama did very good job in world building and telling story good enough and closed it up well. To be successful even without S2[which I heard will be made later].
__*plot*__ - Shortly existed korean agency[lets name it XXX] for supernatural agents, which thanks some problems was closed. Their agents are on run or in other agencies. Now that XXX agency is recreated and they try train up new blood. Thanks their machinations kids of former supernatural agents which inherited their gifts meets at same school. Of course other countries dont wanna see Korea to have another new batch of superhumans.
