Favourite Dramas of 2022
-
1. Rose Mansion
Korean Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
Fantastic thriller from begining to end. It had me guessing and I honestly didn't see the twist coming. The only downside (not the dramas fault) but the female lead exchanged messages with somebody important to the plot and they werent subbed. I feel like I missed something vital.

2. Wang Hou Yu Sheng
Chinese Drama - 2022, 30 episodes
This was a very strong drama for me in the first 15 episodes. The quality dropped but I was abe to finish and still regard this as a favourite for 2022.

3. Through the Darkness
Korean Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
It started off quite weak and I wasn't sure if I was going to continue, put it on hold or if it would take me months to finish. However I continued and I put part of the lack of interest due to me not 100% being in a Korean drama mood. After 5 episodes it picked up massively and I found myself watching it every night in my free time. It had a strong cast and story and I really enjoyed every story told. It wasn't until the end that I realised that every serial killer was based off a true crime. I also funnily enough found out that the infamous Hwaseong cold case was finally not a cold case any longer. This is what happens when you slip away from the scene for a while. Apparantly due to DNA evidence they found out it was a man who was already serving time due to murdering his 18 year old sister in law.

4. Hatsukoi
Japanese Drama - 2022, 9 episodes
This drama was a breath of fresh air. From the moment it played I only received good vibes from it. It's been a while since I've watched a drama within a short amount of time. I was that hooked. The premise was quite cliche but who cares it works and it worked this time around. It's now became one of my favourite dramas. This one is certainly for the rewatch pile :)
