Completed 2024
Brief tracking list to jog my memory
-
1. Laws of Attraction
Thai Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
Sufficiently impressed with this melodramatic BL that I will watch the earlier one 'To Sir With Love'
-
2. A Good Day To Be a Dog
Korean Drama - 2023, 14 episodes
A good concept that suffered in execution
-
3. A Journey to Love
Chinese Drama - 2023, 40 episodes
Brilliant!
-
4. The Blue Whisper: Part 2

The actors all played their roles well and scenery and costumes were lovely but I was not as invested in this continuation.
-
5. Yu Jiao Ji
Chinese Drama - 2022, 22 episodes
I liked this better than the sequel. The relationships were fresher and more intriguing.
-
6. Boys Like Boys
Taiwanese TV Show - 2023, 10 episodes

-
7. Twinkling Watermelon
Korean Drama - 2023, 16 episodes
Entertaining and well acted
-
8. My Man Is Cupid
Korean Drama - 2023, 16 episodes
The story had too much push pull and not enough logical action so it spoiled the overall enjoyment.
-
9. Irresistible Love
Korean Drama - 2023, 16 episodes
Loved seeing the attractive Rowoon in a lead role, however, The Matchmaker was a superior vehicle for him.
-
10. Sahara-sensei to Toki-kun
Japanese Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
If you are worried about a teacher / student relationship don't be. Their relationship is based on trust, respect and friendship. There is healthy communication and both have a support role for the other.
-
11. Transit Love
Korean TV Show - 2021, 15 episodes
Very addictive and enjoyable I started season 2 straight after
-
12. Last Twilight
Thai Drama - 2023, 12 episodes

-
13. The Sign
Thai Drama - 2023, 12 episodes

Chinese Drama - 2023, 40 episodes
The story, acting, cinematography and pace of this drama exceeded my expectations.
-

I am not sure why I chose to watch this and I am perplexed how I managed to finish it when there are better shows on offer.
-
17. Flowers that Bloom at Night
Korean Drama - 2024, 12 episodes
Fun and entertaining.
-
18. Anti Reset

Good and bad and experimental.
-
19. Mariage Impossible
Korean Drama - 2024, 12 episodes
Ending lost its way.
-
20. Marry My Husband
Korean Drama - 2024, 16 episodes
Disappointing ending

Chinese Drama - 2021, 30 episodes
A mainly lighthearted drama entertaining and showcasing Zhao Lusi.
-
23. Une vieille chanson d'amour
Chinese Drama - 2023, 14 episodes
Intriguing story with a time line that brings the ML backwards in time each visit.
-
24. Jewel in the Palace
Korean Drama - 2003, 54 episodes
There are a lot of episodes, however, the story based on a real person adds intrigue, danger, love, politics and palace life in huge doses so there is always something going on.
-
25. EXchange Season 3
Korean TV Show - 2023, 20 episodes
After all the exaggerated emotional dramas I have been consuming this program is refreshingly 'real'.

Chinese Drama - 2024, 22 episodes
Due to the short duration the story whisks along and kept me interested.
-

This has great detective scenes, brotherhood and plots so if you can forgive the immorality of the ending you will enjoy it.
-
29. La Reine des Larmes
Korean Drama - 2024, 16 episodes
Very pretty to watch but like sugared cereal not very satisfying.
-
30. Second Love
Japanese Drama - 2015, 7 episodes
Both characters show character development arcs as they make decisions based on their unrealised career needs.
-
31. Vincenzo
Korean Drama - 2021, 20 episodes
Expect lots of laughs, murders, violence and law breaking it is a hell of a ride.

This is not a light, fluffy BL it displays the darker elements of human nature and the clumsy way that people go about trying to love.
-

This is a soothing watch with lots of hand holding and sweet kisses not a die hard detective genre.

I watched this as it was aired but it would work better as a binge watch to allow for flow and reduce the lack of action.
-
41. Lovely Runner
Korean Drama - 2024, 16 episodes
This drama was a jumble of ideas with very little cohesion and logic so for me it felt juvenile.
-
42. Miracle
Taiwanese Drama - 2023, 13 episodes
Enjoyed the dynamic between the two couples.
