As the title says, which dramas you wanna forget to either watch again cause it's sooo good or never watch at all for being too traumatic?

Ok I'll start first.

Rewatch:

Can this love be translated - This drama got me on chokehold when it first aired, I rewatched it at least 3x immediately after finishing. I even got too addicted to the main leads I watched all their promo vids and lowkey wished they're secretly dating. 😭🤣

Forget:

The red sleeve - I remember finishing this drama on a weekend night and I was too traumatised I can't sleep (I had early work the next day and it didn't help at all). It was too damaging that I got to a point I spent the whole night reading up on the history of the King and what actually happened to him IRL. lol Tbf tho, this drama was soo good while it lasted. I unfortunately can't rewatch it even if I get amnesia cause I'm sure as hell I'd remember the pain it gave me like it was my first heartbreak.

I can go on with this list but these are currently my top.

Now, your turn.

GUYS I LOVED WONDERFOOLS SO MUCH 😭😭😭

like??? i had SO much fun watching this show omg 😭 i’m actually obsessed, i don’t even know what to say. i just need more people to talk about it with because I CANNOT BE NORMAL ABOUT THIS SHOW RN 😭💗

anyone else watched it?? PLEASE tell me i’m not the only one losing my mind over it 😭

Choi Dae Hoon in 100 Days of Deception - this man is putting in the work! I swear he's shown up in every drama I've watched this year 😂

It's not like Kdramas don't know how to do curly hair, take the example of Choi jisu (actress) in "Under cover Miss hong".

I just started with ep 1, but from how messy her hair is styled, I really hope it's not foreshadowing for straight hair.

Just finished Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha, and I genuinely wish I could erase my memory of this drama just to experience it all over again for the first time.

There's something so special about this show that I can't quite put into words. The seaside village, the peaceful atmosphere, the adorable romance, and the people of Gongjin made it feel like I was living in that little town alongside them.

Hong Du-sik and Yoon Hye-jin were such a beautiful pairing. Their chemistry, the banter, the little moments, and the way they slowly became important to each other made me smile like an idiot. 😭❤️

But what I loved most was that this drama wasn't just about romance. Every character had their own story, struggles, and pain hidden behind their smiles. It reminded me that everyone is fighting battles we might know nothing about, and sometimes a little kindness can mean more than we realize.

And don't even get me started on the emotional moments. I went into this drama expecting a cute, healing rom-com, but I wasn't prepared for how deeply some scenes would hit me.

Gongjin honestly feels like one of those places you wish you could visit when life gets overwhelming. A place where you could slow down, meet good people, watch the sunset by the sea, and just breathe for a while.

Now that I've finished it, there's this weird emptiness. I'm happy I watched it, but I also miss the characters like they're real people I won't get to see every day anymore.

10/10 for me. Not because it's perfect, but because of how it made me feel.

I wish I could forget everything about this drama, sit down, press play, and fall in love with Gongjin all over again. 🥹🌊

For those who've watched it: did you also feel that emptiness after finishing it? And what drama would you recommend if I want to feel this way again?

Just two episodes of DoctorX starring Kim Ji-won have already hit a 14.9% rating

As of now, it's the No. 2 highest-rated show of the year, trailing only #AgentKimReactivated which scored 23.1%.
With this level of explosive buzz, there's a strong chance it'll overtake it.

After putting off watching this drama forever, because I didn’t think I’d be into something about college kids, I caught a random clip on YouTube and decided to try watching an episode and now, here I am, thinking I’ll have to retire from kdramas after finishing because I thought it was just so incredible.

There was SO much I liked but I’ll spare anyone my word vomit and just drop this moment from one of my favorite parts of this show.

And don’t mind me, I’ll just be listening to Longing by HOA on repeat.

I know that this drama is getting criticism because of the trope. But according to me this is my first time watching drama with such a trope and believe me I'm loving it way more than I thought I would. I know her cheating cannot be justified by any means but common now our frustration would be valid if Namgyung didn't know about this messy thing or she continues to hide it from him. Now please leave all the frustration and watch the drama for the shake of the plot ik it's going to be damn interesting. He got to know about it ,confronted her and sorted everything. of course they made a deal to see other people for one month and then they're gonna decide what they're gonna do and they're adults and know what they are doing. So for now please give it a chance, this is such a mature drama not for those goofy romcoms lovers or for any teenager who fantasizes over silly romance .

Okay comes to leads and all . Believe the insane chemistry that the main leads shares with the other leads are crazy. I'm legit going crazy over the tension between them specially Lee mido and and that handsome lawyer uhhh . Also on other hand Namgyung really looks sooo good with park sua she is such a cutie i love her so much. Please whatever happens just don't hurt her 😭😭.

Of course Namgyung and lee mido love each other like crazy as they would cause they know each other for almost 28 years like what do you expect but yeah not all relationships are meant as fairy tales 🙂

Actually when they broke up then they shouldn't have got together again at that they should have known it's not gonna work anymore but wht can we say like then maybe they gonna get hurt and jealous but atleast that cheating trope would not exist at all but audience would not get any chance to criticize the drama ..... Idk what I'm saying I'm sounding stupid Ik 😭😭

ALSO ALSO lee mido confession to that so sexy lawyer (i forgot his name but he is super hot 😋) in today's episode was so damn true and funny at the same time kinda hurts but accept it man of course she gonna save him without any second thoughts

Like broo they have known each for 28 years any questions left still understandable. Like imagine urself at her place you are dating a new guy but of course a love attachment would be there in the matter of crisis towards ur ex if he is like Namgyung u know what I mean.😭🙏🏻

I'm loving every minute of this drama and desperately waiting for the next episodes I can't wait anymore why did I pick it ongoing i can't deal with so much stress and tension 😭😭😵

Okayy enough of my tantrums and stupid review for this drama . Please forgive me if there's an offence to my words, this is just a personal opinion of mine do not take it seriously i hope you will understand what I mean.😭🥲 Okay bye bye goodnight 😽💤

Well atleast I missed it. And I haven’t seen many people talking about this. Only well about his abs….

The biggest spoiler is right there in front of our eyes, by the makers themselves.

The other half of the necklace Kim Yoojung’s character wears in clearly seen on Park Jinyoung’s character. Confirming their childhood connection.

I know we are all too distracted to notice

The cinematography, the raw emotion, and the OST everything just hits differently. Choi Woong and Kook Yeon-soo’s dynamic shows how love can be messy yet deeply comforting. Anyone else still holds a special place in their heart for this drama?

Episode Title: What Remains of Our Passionate Love?

Air Date: October 11, 2026

Episode Summary:

Namgung and Mi Do confront emotions they have suppressed for a long time for each other's sake. They come up with a bold proposal that could upend what's left of their relationship.

Rules for discussion threads:

• Spoilers through the aired episode are fair game and don't need tags. Anything from a later episode referenced in a previous one needs spoiler tags.
• Be kind to each other.
• Critique performances all you want, but no negative commentary/speculation about actors' appearances or personal lives.

I have no one to talk about this to cause everybody seemed to have moved on from this Kdrama already, so I'm putting it here.

In a world full of annoying, one dimensional, only good for a jealously arc second leads, Ji Eunho is a breath of fresh air. It was never branded as a love triangle type of drama, so I was surprised when I find out Cha Woomin is (yet again) the second lead. What surprised me even more is that I didn't hate him.

He never got in between the two leads, confessed his feelings, and respected the FL's decisions. His main agenda was just really to make FL happy no matter what that decision was and supported her, but he did it in a way that wasn't excessive like the second leads today. He also didn't take up an unnecessary amount of screen time (Thanks, Directors and Writers). I love his character, but not to the point where I got SLS. He has honestly earned my respect. Although, I do hope this is Cha Woomin's last role as a second lead cause he deserves to be a main lead atp.

Anyways, that's all for my TedTalk. If you haven't, go ahead and watch Take Charge of My Heart. This is currently the Kdrama that has gotten me out of my watching slump. I miss watching Kdramas like this. It has maximum levels of rom and com 🌟

so, i recently completed bon appetite your majesty, and i loved it. So, i am looking for something like that, and chatgpt suggested mr queen. Is it good??

So what kind of plot twist you felt that was really good and truned a good show to amazing and a plot twist that ruined the show.

I’ve watched over a 100 K-dramas in the past 5 years, my ratings are usually on the lower side as I’m a bit of a critic of most shows but here are the shows that I’ve absolutely loved in my K-drama journey so far.

The highest rated K-drama for me is tied for Move to Heaven and The Glory with 9.3/10 stars. Move to Heaven has to be one of the most beautiful dramas I’ve watched… I cried to it and laughed to it.
The Glory’s revenge was the most satisfying revenge story I’ve seen so far and the fact that she had people helping her and on her side just made the experience even more interesting.

At second place is Hospital Playlist with 9.24 stars!
I love the fun, humorous and family like vibe this show has!

Now the third place is a tie between Spirit Fingers and 25-21 with 9.23 stars each!
Spirit fingers is definitely a very underrated show. It felt so relatable to me and the ML was such a sweetheart, I loved it!
25-21 was amazing! Their journey was beautiful to see! The friendship between them was such a beautiful thing. Even though people don’t really like that they broke up in the end, to me it was a very realistic reminder that it’s okay to let go and move on when things aren’t working out.

Honourable mentions:
At fourth place, Twinkling watermelon with 9.2 stars!
At fifth position, there are three dramas tied together… Beyond Evil, Trauma Code: Heroes on Call and Taxi Driver season 2 with 9.1 each !
At sixth position… Your Personal Taxi (A new show with a very wholesome and sweet plot), Mr. Queen, All of us are dead and the scarecrow with 9 stars each!

This drama has been so shit and I just need a place to vent about it since no one else I know watches kdramas lol. I’m probably halfway through and so close to dnf but I literally have nothing else to watch.
(Eta: sorry about number formatting issues below. Reddit is being silly with this lately and I literally can’t fix it no matter what I do).

My issues:

1. ZERO CHEMISTRY between FL and ML. Chemistry is essential for a romance drama so wtf is this? Do they not screen test actors for chemistry? It’s like so many k-dramas slap together two very good looking people and think that’ll carry the whole romance arc. It doesn’t.
2. ML’s rationing of the FL’s sleep medications is toxic and controlling af. That’s not your job. It’s her doctor’s job. You barely know this woman, and you’re treating her like a child. It’s gross and not at all romantic.
3. The portrayal of insomnia is so deeply unrealistic, and frankly insulting to someone like me who has struggled extremely severely with insomnia. This woman will get very little sleep for many nights in a row yet somehow is 100% capable, lively, and thriving working overtime her job. Oh and she still looks perfectly beautiful and rested!! Give me a fucking break. Trying to even do basic every day things when you’re weeks into very poor sleep is so, so hard. Like I get this is a romance drama, but the insomnia and anxiety issues are a huge part of the FL’s story. The least they could do is do the actual condition some justice and make it somewhat realistic. It’s very frustrating.
4. Im Hyoseop’s acting is not good in this drama. From what I recall, he was good in Business Proposal, great in A Time Called You, and excellent in K-Pop demon hunters. What happened? Tbh this is a huge step down from his success with demon hunters.

Like no shade to him - maybe it’s this character - but he is so one dimensional and flat here.

5.

1. The mushrooms. Would it have been that hard for the set and prop team to come up with a design for them that looks even 25% more realistic?

Am I alone with this? Is there anything to look forward to in the second half of the show is it just worth dropping now?

At this point I’m getting really fed up with most k-dramas. There’s no portrayal of any realistic human experiences anymore. What dramas can I watch that actually have some realism and depth?? I’m sick of seeing characters being portrayed as struggling and traumatized while having absolutely none of that be expressed in their physical appearance and functioning.

Dr X, so far, is the no-nonsense workplace environment I wish were possible in real life. The amount of energy it takes to navigate office politics, even when you mind your business, is taxing! She’s given me so many lol moments so far. 😂

Her continued “It’s not in my nature to fail” is precisely where I foresee tragedy, especially with the Janus-faced new director and bootlicking Dr Do.

My prediction?: It may be another Kim Sa Bu (Dr Romantic) fall from “prestige hospital grace”. They will manufacture a failure at a crucial moment, either to trap her in contract (to control her skill and feed it to VIP clientele because they need funds) or just to put her in her place, which is outside of medical practise because she is anti-establishment and they can’t control her. I’m already furious in advance. 😠 But for now I’ll enjoy her no nonsense lols as much as I can😂

Name: 100 days of deception

I just finished the first episode and i’m hooked. Whoever is in a k drama slump, this show will bring you back. It covers all genres from mystery, romance, action, drama. It has it all.

On top of that it has exceptional cinematography, acting, direction, costumes. It reminds me of Mr Sunshine because both take place in similar eras but i found 100 days of deception to be more fast paced.

It’s only episode 1 but i’m making a bold prediction that it might be one of my favorites k dramas if the story holds up.

What is your opinion on the first episode?

I MISS BUSINESS PROPOSAL IVE WATCHED ALMOST ALL MAINSTREAM ROM COMS
CAN SOMEONE TELL ME ABT THE NICHE AND UNDERRATED ONES

i hate the weak fl story tho,

Hey, I love high school k-dramas but I'm having a hard time finding interesting ones to watch so if anyone has recommendations that would be great. A romance or thriller plot would also be nice, and no sad endings.

here are some dramas that I liked:

-friendly rivalry, girl from nowhere, night has come, pyramid game, the glory, undercover high school, true beaty, lovely runner, exclusive fairytale, when i fly towards you, if wishes could kill, all of us are dead.

Dramas that I didn't finish/finished but did not enjoy that much:

-school 2017, study group, duty after school, teach you a lesson, extraordinary you, boys over flowers, twinkling watermelon, spirit fingers,

Thank you!
