my personal ranking of 2020's kdramas
I've decided to rank all the 2020's dramas i've watched so far
-
1. It’s Okay to Not Be Okay
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
This drama was my favorite for sure. The story really captivated me since the first episodes and the ending was extremely satisfying. It was amazing to see so many flaws in the main characters and not only that, but also to see their personal growth throughout the show.

2. Flower of Evil
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Even tho the ending was not my favorite, I can't deny how breathtaking this drama was for me. It made me crave for more every single week and every episode blew my mind in a different way. I think they could've wrapped things up in a different way, but because of the amazing story, acting, casting and soundtrack, this one landed in the second position of this list.

3. Mystic Pop-up Bar
Korean Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
I started watching this drama with absolutely no expectations, and it has surprised me so much. I really enjoyed watching it every single week, the characters are absolutely amazing, the story is exciting... I loved everything about this.

4. La faune d'Itaewon
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
I was shipping the CEO of Jangga with bankruptcy so freaking much! I love how this drama brought up so many important matters that are usually not talked about in the media - especially the korean media -, such as transexuality and racism. This drama also consists in a very interesting story and some pretty amazing characters and actors, so definitely one of my personal favorites of all times.

5. Extracurricular
Korean Drama - 2020, 10 episodes
Still didn't fully recovered from it, still patiently waiting for the next season. This show was totally different from all the ones i've watched before and it surprised me so much! All episodes left me uneasy and I say this in a good way.

6. Hospital Playlist
Korean Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
It was a very slow begining so I didn't think at first that I would like this drama as much as I have, and I don't even know when it got me, all I know is that I went from watching one episode per day to binge watching the rest of the episodes cause I simply couldn't wait any longer to know what happened. Again patiently waiting for the second season.

7. My Holo Love
Korean Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
I was so afraid to watch this cause I couldn't see a happy ending for them and I'm the kind of person who prefers happy endings on my TV shows cause I know that in real life is harder to get one of those. I watched it anyway, and I liked it so much! Eventually the happy ending I hoped for so much didn't matter anymore and I was just focused on how would they get out of that mess. I really enjoyed it and even tho I felt some relationships were build in a rush, it is still a pretty good drama for me.

8. The Married Life
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
This was such an emotional rollecoaster for me. The only emotion that was constant while watching this drama was the anger I felt towards some of the male characters. It was a brilliant portrait of failed relationships and the actors are amazing. I didn't quiet liked the ending, but I can't really explain the reason without giving out major spoilers so I'll just leave it like that.

9. Hello, Mom
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Cried in every single episode. I knew what I was getting into when I first started this drama, but like a moth drawn to a flame I was completely lured in and I regret nothing. I wouldn't watch it again, but I'm glad I did watch this one.

10. The King : Eternal Monarch
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
I'll be honest, only two things made me finish this drama: 1) my unbearable necessity of comprehending how did that flute worked and why things were happening and 2) Woo DoHwan. There was nothing special for me in this drama and even though I didn't think of it as a waste of time, it wasn't totally worth it either.
-
11. Record of Youth
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Since this one isn't finished yet, I can't place it any higher or lower than this in the ranking. I don't like the fact that the FL seems to be perfect since the begining, since I really like to see some growth amongst the characters, but besides that I'm finding it very amusing. The main con for me is that I have second lead syndrom again :'(

12. Begin Again
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
It is crazy to thing that the most reasonable characters of this drama were the two 13-year-olds. The thing I hate the most is when people don't simply talk to each other to solve their problems and the entire plot of this is based on misunderstandings and miscommunications. Not a fan of this drama, the only reason I finished it was because I kept hoping that it would get better in the following episode. SPOILER: It didn't.

13. Love is Annoying, but I Hate Being Lonely
Korean Drama - 2020, 10 episodes
This one also isn't over yet, but I dropped it. I don't like the leads, I hate the kind of clichê it has fallen into, I don't like they way they think. I don't like the whole drama with her friend and that foreign guy. I'm not a person that usally drops things, but my friend convinced me that this would be a complete waste of time and for once I agreed with her.
