Very good. Dramas that I enjoyed a lot and that I found really interesting. I disliked some of their elements/felt bored at some point/didn't like one of their characters.

2. Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo
Korean Drama - 2016, 20 episodes
This drama is a complete tragedy. The most painful 20 hours of my life.
On the first episodes, I felt like I was playing a bad otome game but without any power of decision. It was interesting but kind of weird, plus I didn't like the guy she was going out with. Then after the sixth episode, everything went to shit and it became real good. Honestly, once you're past the first episodes, it will be one hell of a ride. This is pure torture, but a good kind of torture. The plot was a bit messy at times but it was very captivating. Once you thought everything was going to be alright, they threw more drama at us. Truly heartbreaking.
Unlike others, I liked the ending. I don't think the show absolutely NEEDS a second season because, well, sometimes happy endings are a bit unrealistic. This one suited this show well and I think there was no better way to end this nightmare. You can't give an happy ending to people who have already lost everything.
I strongly hated and loved at the same time all of the characters. I hated them because they gave me a lot of reasons to do so. I still couldn't help the affection I felt towards most of them though.
The actors are all really good. They did a great job. IU did surprisingly well. The soundtracks are so fricking beautiful, too.
I can't give this one a higher rating because the editing was a bit weird and it still had a lot of flaws. But I liked it a lot.
I won't ever watch it again though, Scarlet Heart Ryeo is the most depressing shit I've ever watched.

3. Are You Human Too?
Korean Drama - 2018, 36 episodes
