The plot of Undercover High School is so unserious. It's meant to be a pure action comedy, wasn't ever actually that funny...

Dropped: True Beauty is the 10th most popular drama on MDL and has a reputation for second lead syndrome...

6/10 Stars: A short, fluffy Rom Com that felt like an underdeveloped Our Beloved Summer.

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.

7/10 Stars: A lukewarm fantasy romance that probably works better for younger viewers, but is generally a mid time.

7/10 Stars: Not really a romance, but a melancholy reflection of love lost starring a grim reaper who is determined to save his first love from herself.

8/10 Stars: Objectively, the drama deserves a higher rating, but the content was too graphic for my taste. I am a wee babe when it comes to bloodshed. I recommend for non-sensitive viewers.

8.22/10 Stars: A coming of age tale following a teenage girl as she joins an art club and experiences first love and new friendships, faces her insecurities, and struggles to connect with her family.

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.

9.2/10 Stars: A family focused nostalgia fest with youthful romance and heartwarming relationships.

9.4/10: Light and refreshing, and yet hearty at the same time, The Makanai is a cozy coming of age tale that believes in and respects its characters, offering a look behind the curtain at the modern day Maiko. If you enjoy the bosom friendship of Anne of Green Gables, the vibes of a non-fantasy Kiki's Delivery Service, or a 'slice-of-life' leisurely narrative, I would highly recommend!
