Why Did I Watch This?
This is a list of dramas and movies I should have known better than to watch, or in some cases start to watc, but I did anyhow. Honestly, a few actuall were not all that bad.
-
1. Shojo Koi.
Japanese Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
Yes, the rating was deserved.
-
2. Asako I & II
Japanese Movie - 2018
I think that Higashide Masahiro is talented, but I can't get beyond him cheating on his wife with his co-star from this movie, Karata Erika.
-
3. Back Hug
Japanese Special - 2014, 1 episode
-
4. Chains of Heart
Thai Drama - 2023, 10 episodes
This had so much potential, but the second half was an absolute train wreck.
-
5. HIStory: Obsessed
Taiwanese Special - 2017, 4 episodes
Toxic.
-
6. Himitsu no Ai-chan
Japanese Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
The leads were good and the chemistry was there, but ....
-
7. Individual Circumstances
Korean Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
I felt this was lacking some oomph and it dragged.
-
8. Kekkon Dekinai ni wa Wake ga Aru
Japanese Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
The doll! Need I say more?
-
9. One Summer Night
Korean Movie - 2016
It was good, until the ending. I was prepared for the explicit scenes, so no surprises there.
-
10. Parfait Tic
Japanese Drama - 2018, 10 episodes
I was hoping for a light, easy watch but this was just awful.
-
11. Takara-kun to Amagi-kun
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
-
12. Watashi no Kaseifu Nagisa-san
Japanese Drama - 2020, 9 episodes
This is one of the most unrealistic FL/ML couples ever. I could get beyond the age gap if there was chemistry, but there wasn't any. It wold have been much better without that aspect.
-
13. Watashi no Shite Kurenai Pheromone Kareshi
Japanese Drama - 2022, 9 episodes
-
14. You Are My Destiny
Japanese Drama - 2020, 10 episodes
Worst. Ending. There should be a season 2 to follow up - they get back together in every other remake of this drama.
-
15. Cheese in the Trap
Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes
The contoversy, the ending.
-
16. Cinecon e Ikou!
Japanese Drama - 2022, 13 episodes
Dropped after the first episode. It was boring.
-
17. Dear X Who Doesn't Love Me
Korean Drama - 2022, 10 episodes
It was much darker than I anticipated and it was painful to watch the misdeeds of the FL catch up to her and the abuse she took from those she manipulated
-
18. Edo Moiselle: Reiwa de Koi, Itashinsu
Japanese Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
I loved the first half of the series.
-
19. Heartbeat
Korean Drama - 2023, 16 episodes
I hated the ending. It ruined the series. My first Taecyeon drama and I loved him in this, but the screen writers ...
-
20. HIStory5: Love in the Future
Taiwanese Drama - 2022, 20 episodes
Dropped about halfway through. There was not chemistry between the ML's. This does not belong in the HIStory franchise
-
21. Hold Me Back
Japanese Movie - 2020
I couldn't get into this. Maybe because I do not like Hayashi Kento.
-
22. Mental Tsuyome Bijo Shirakawa-san
Japanese Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
Semi decent reviews and ratings, but it lacked something for me.
-
23. Oh! My Boss! Koi wa Bessatsu de
Japanese Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
Dropped halfway through. I think it is due to Kamishiraishi Mone as I think she is overrated.
-
24. Oshi no Oujisama
Japanese Drama - 2021, 11 episodes
Dropped. I came for Fujioka Dean but left because of Watanabe Keisuke. There is no chemistry.
