My K Drama Year in Review 2017
Dropped Dramas:
I just lost interest:
Revolutionary Love
Suspicious Partner
Meloholic
Andante
Witches Court-I cannot remember if I finished this or not to be real haha
Black Knight-After the first few episodes ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
It was bad:
Doubtful Victory
Father I’ll Take Care of You
My Sassy Girl
Queen of the Ring
Strongest Deliveryman: This drama started strong, but something about it just fizzled a little over halfway through and it limped to an end.
I just did not like it:
Voice
Other:
Fight My Way- Park Seo Joon is SO friggin NAMJA in this. SO NAMJA. Starts out really strong, and I dropped it like 2 episodes left because if I had to watch that damn girl do aegyo one more time I’d fly to Korea and slap the actress.
Judge vs. Judge- I want to go back and finish this not because it was good but because I love a who done it.
Man That Sets The Table-completely horrible parents that I couldn’t deal with.
20th Century Boy and Girl- bored by the lead romance, loved the fem friends, meant to go back to it but never did.
Manhole-Jaejoong’s character was so bloody frenetic it made me have anxiety.
Temperature of Love-Started strong with some heat, but got bloated and soggy, stopped caring.
Completed Dramas:
Chief Kim-SO enjoyable.
Mystery Queen-Charming!
Mad Dog-Energetic, and engaging team, but with annoying bad guy crap that wasted a lot of time that Woo Do Hwan and Ryu Hwa-young could light up the screen.
School 2017- Cute. Hated the last episode aegyo crap.
Girls Generation 1979-STELLAR.
The Best Hit-Absolutely darling.
Father Is Strange-My first long drama actually completed, mostly, I will admit I skipped through some of the side plots. Really good despite annoying in laws.
Lookout-Very good, heart rending, fem lead is awesome action drama, great roles, SUPER CAST.
Hospital Ship- Kang Min Hyuk. That is all.
I am Not a Robot-Started off shaky with some misogynistic crap, leveled out with enough feels and sweetness to make it ok.
While You Were Sleeping-Lovely, enjoyable drama, left us a bit hanging on the supernatural aspect.
Because It’s My First Life: Wonderful drama, so engaging and thoughtful, the ending faltered with wtf separation, but still was one of the best of the year.
Introverted Boss-A lot of people did not like this drama. I did. I do not like Yeon Woo-jin much but I really enjoyed his character in this, and what he did with it.
Prison Playbook-STELLAR
Liar and his Lover-This drama was likeable and forgettable at the same time.
Hwayugi- This drama was also likeable and forgettable at the same time. Also interesting and wtf at the same time. Budget and production issued were obvious.
Habaek- I loved this drama. LOVED. Nam Joo Hyuk and his friggin mullet of awfulness, and his hotness made me so crazy. WARNING: That doesn’t mean it’s good. So much wasted potential if only they had set it in the god world.
Chicago Typewriter-STELLAR
My Secret Romance-Sung Hoon is hot, and this drama is so much, sweet, sexy, cute, lovely.
Black- Like my heart and my mood while watching this pile of crap. I have NO idea why I finished it.
Strong Woman Do Bong Soon-Darling Cast. Park Hyung sik RULES. Super uneven, with disturbing content mixed in with sugar. Weird.
Man to Man-So much potential fun. I hated the fem lead. I think it was the character and the actress.
My Only Love Song- It was okay. Odd.
