3.1/5 Stars: A Xianxia that tells the same 6.2/10 Stars: A Xianxia that tells the same old story well, with a battle hardened FL who struggles to emote and a ML who considers love a taboo. Pacing is iffy and acting wasn't the strength, but there was good chemistry and production quality.

6.4/10 Stars: A perfectly blasé idol drama that was underwhelming in its flat acting and predictable story, but committed no crimes. Only a good watch when there is nothing else to watch.

6.7/10 Stars: A melancholy look at the aftermath of a failed inter-cultural relationship, where former lovers reunite by chance and must reexamine the past to determine the future they truly want.

7/10 Stars: Half romance/half family drama, Family By Choice is a better choice than the original Chinese drama (Go Ahead), with strong chemistry between leads, but nothing groundbreaking.

6.6/10 Stars: A pure fluff Xianxia Transmigration drama with beautiful costumes and a story leans too YOUNG... as in Toddler characters galore.

7/10 Stars: An enemies to lovers romance filled with angst, revenge, and Stockholm Syndrome. It's decent for the type of tangled love story it is, but isn't for everyone.

7.4/10 Stars: A ninja filled historical parody that leaned too intense for my tastes at moments, and shined in it's comedy, but didn't leave a strong impression in romance or story.

7.2/10 Stars: A stand alone prequel to the famed Chief Inspector series (1971) that explores South Korean crime in the 1950's and shines in its camaraderie. There are violent crimes that do constitute an MA rating, but it's on the lighter side in comparison to many other dramas with that rating.

3.6/5 Stars: Mostly an idol romance, with some inner household scheming and a ML who does his thang in a political side plot.

8.3/10 Stars: A comedic rom com with an adorable couple who have many embarrassing moments, but the mystery and the chemistry kept me locked in.

8.1/10 Stars: A mild romance made better by gorgeous cinematography (think Pursuit of Jade) and the brilliant scheming of the FL and ML.

9/10 Stars: A romance that leans into the dramatics and comedy of a Telenovela, but turns to be so much more with a a married couple and family you grow to love.

8.75/10 Stars: A mystery that cloaks itself in horror for the first few episodes, but then reveals itself to be a brilliant metaphor when it steps into the light.

8.6/10 Stars: An addictive, gothic romance with layers upon layers of scheming and betrayal.

9.25/10 Stars: A glossy idol romance with a capable FL, family/business focus, and a lot of heart.

7.5/5 Stars: Two former academic rivals reunite by chance in adulthood after taking major L's both professionally and personally, and work together to pull themselves out of their slumps in pursuit of W's.
