1. Nine: Nine Times Time Travel
Korean Drama - 2013, 20 episodes
One of my first k-dramas, one of my few tens, and the one that made me fall for LJW. It's been a long times since I watched it, and honestly I don't remember it very well, but I know that I loved it a lot and I'm sure that it really was that good!
-
2. Miracle That We Met
Korean Drama - 2018, 18 episodes
The first episode didn't impress me, but after that, the drama took me by surprise by being so good! KMM did a great job portraying a good and a bad man with the same body. Even though the story is too fantastical to believe in, the characters still made me believe in everything. It was an emotional drama and I loved it!

3. Tribes and Empires: Storm of Prophecy
Chinese Drama - 2017, 75 episodes
Easily THE best fantasy drama of this type that I have watched. Yes, the ending made me cry for a sequel, but I don't care; it had everything I want from fantasy, done very well, everything beautiful and captivating. I haven't seen any drama like it.

4. Reset
Chinese Drama - 2022, 15 episodes
Short (compared to most c-dramas) but very good. Enjoyable, a fascinating and satisfying watch.
-
5. 49 Days
Korean Drama - 2011, 20 episodes
Another of my early ones, I liked it a lot and it made me cry! (A rare thing for dramas.)
-
6. Memories of the Alhambra
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
To me the story seemed unique and I watched it in just a week. The beautiful music became so haunting!
-
7. Sutekina Sen Taxi
Japanese Drama - 2014, 10 episodes
Fun in that very special Japanese way!
-
8. Rattan
Chinese Drama - 2021, 30 episodes
Interesting, but kind of strange. I enjoyed the FL and the ML was very nice. But the ending was strange and unnecessary.

9. Signal: Choki Mikaiketsu Jiken Sosahan
Japanese Drama - 2018, 10 episodes
-
10. See You in My 19th Life
Korean Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
I watched this right after the Angel one (see below) even though I wasn't in the mood for this genre. It surprised me by being better than I thought! I enjoyed watching it, I like that it was only 12 episodes, but... there were plot holes, especially concerning the ending.
-
11. The Starry Night, the Starry Sea
Chinese Drama - 2017, 32 episodes
I remember it as the type of drama that I found annoying, but at the same time I had a lot to say about the characters, so I guess it was kind of fun to watch.
-
12. Familiar Wife
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
-
13. Hi Bye, Mama!
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
It was pretty good, but the ghost friends were too silly and took too much screen time. In the end, I found it good but a bit underwhelming. "Just a k-drama I watched"... like My Familiar Wife.
-
14. Chicago Typewriter
Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes
Hm, it's funny that I rated it 7, because years later I seem to remember that I didn't like it that much... but I have forgotten most things about it.
-
15. Dear Diary
Chinese Drama - 2021, 24 episodes
Fun to watch, but kind of silly. I ended up enjoying the supporting characters more than the main ones.
-
16. The Journey of Flower
Chinese Drama - 2015, 58 episodes
It has a low rating because I didn't find it that good (plot holes, very silly, boring ML...), but I fund it hilarious and there were many supporting characters I enjoyed. It was very much a guilty pleasure kind of drama... one of the few I think I can call that.
-
17. Queen In Hyun's Man
Korean Drama - 2012, 16 episodes
I watched it so long ago that I only remember a few things: the best friend was annoying, the drama was too long.
-
18. Moonshine and Valentine
Chinese Drama - 2018, 25 episodes
-
19. Mystic Pop-Up Bar
Korean Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
-
20. Bulgasal: Immortal Souls
Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
I watched it for LJW. It was okay.
-
21. Angel's Last Mission: Love
Korean Drama - 2019, 32 episodes
The first few episodes were pretty good, but then it became a mess. It just didn't make sense.
-
22. Lovers of the Red Sky
Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
Boring with bland characters.
-
23. The Sound of Magic
Korean Drama - 2022, 6 episodes
I know it was loved by many, but I disliked it!
-
24. Goblin
Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes
Again, I'm in the minority, but I did not like it.
-
25. Novoland: The Castle in the Sky
Chinese Drama - 2016, 28 episodes
I have forgotten why, but I know that I struggled to complete it. Maybe I was even more disappointed because it has "Novoland" in the title.
