Completed Dramas, Ranked
Tumblr media
Masterlist of all the dramas I have finished and my rankings from 1-10. Keep in mind I don't usually finish dramas that I don't like, so most of these reviews will be 6+ ratings.
List got too long! Have migrated it over to MDL: https://mydramalist.com/list/1zyZGNZ4
Also follow me on my new blog for updates on what I'm watching: https://darth-noona.tumblr.com/

I need someone to do some research about how many times there's a scene in a k-drama featuring the lead couple riding a carousel AND wearing animal ear headbands.
I'm guessing 57

Hi. I recently finished watching Coffee Prince based on a few recs posts that you had put out and MY GOD I'm so glad I decided to give it a try. (This was the first Kdrama where I got past 2 eps) I loved this sooo sooo much.
Do you have any recs for media (queer or otherwise) with similar strong characters as Eun-Chan? Even otherwise, thanks for your great rec posts!
Another Coffee Prince convert! Thank you for telling me, anon, it gives me so much joy every time someone gets to experience it for the first time. And I am not surprised Go Eun Chan captured your heart, everyone who meets her feels the same.
Tumblr media
Since I don't know exactly what about Eun Chan captivated you, I am not entirely sure what kind of characters you are looking for. Is it her generosity of spirit? Is it that endearing mix of bravery and naïveté? Is it the way she keeps going through confusion and uncertainty? Is it that she is just so lacking in artifice and unapologetically herself? Or maybe it's her gender questioning journey that spoke to you.
Given that I am not precisely sure, I am just going to give you a mix of great dramas of various genres with strong characters that give me some aspect of that Eun Chan swag--feel free to come back and ask for more recs if you have something else in mind! In alpha order:
Be Melodramatic (Viki)
Tumblr media
Shan found another excuse to rec Be Melodramatic? Must be a day ending in y. But seriously this drama is full of fantastic characters and there's a strong thread here about being yourself unapologetically and finding the people who love you for that.
Great Men Academy (grey)
Tumblr media
Another character experiencing gender, but this time via a magical-unicorn-induced body transformation (don't ask I could not possibly explain it). This story is all about Love figuring herself out and the bisexual king who loves her in any body.
Healer (Viki)
Tumblr media
Chae Yeong Shin is Park Min Young's best character ever and it's not close. She has a lot of Eun Chan's relentless spirit and optimism in the face of life's nonsense, and she's a spunky one. Healer is also just a great action romance with a lot of fun hijinks and a very swoony male lead, if you're into that kind of thing.
Joshi-teki Seikatsu (Life As A Girl) (grey)
Tumblr media
Miki is an all-time great character. A trans woman rebooting her life away from home, she is more assured about who she is but has a lot of Eun Chan's core generosity and bravery. I love her so much.
Kieta Hatsukoi (Viki)
Tumblr media
Chaotic confusion with a heart of gold, thy name is Aoki.
Koisenu Futari (grey)
Tumblr media
Sakuko, my beloved. This show is about two people on the aroace spectrum connecting and finding companionship and family in each other, and it's so beautiful.
Light on Me (Viki)
Tumblr media
Woo Tae Kyung is definitely sitting at the "unapologetically themselves" table with Eun Chan. And he has a love triangle, too!
My Lovely Sam Soon (Viki)
Tumblr media
If you're up for an even older kdrama, I love this one to pieces. Kim Sam Soon has a lot in common with Go Eun Chan, in that she doesn't perform femininity the way people expect and she is trying to find her place in the world, all while crushing on a guy who feels very out of her league. This is a journey for both lead characters, and I was so moved by where they ended up that I burst into tears at the end.
She Loves to Cook and She Loves to Eat (Furritsubs)
Tumblr media
My girls!!! I love every character in this show. I don't think it's possible to watch this drama and not find someone to connect with; it's all about exploring the many different ways to be a woman and finding the people who will love and respect you for who you are. And it's very queer while doing it!
Twenty-five Twenty-one (Netflix)
Tumblr media
Na Hee Do is a legend, and not just because of the fencing. This show is her coming of age story and you will love her.
Weightlifting Fair Kim Bok Joo (Viki)
Tumblr media
Kim Bok Joo, another heroine wrestling with her femininity as she navigates coming of age and changing relationships. She's fantastic.
As always, if you have trouble finding any of these, you can always hmu (off anon, because we don't share secret files in public lol). Hope you find something to enjoy among these!

I finished it and it is officially in my top ten feel good kdramas along the likes of Weightlifting Fairy and Strong Woman Do Bong Soo (I’m watching season two now which has a whole new cast and only a cameo from the OG couple, and it’s not nearly as good as season one. The best part of season two was the OG couple. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m big mad about it).
I’ve been watching Twinkling Watermelon with my mom and we only have two episodes left. It is definitely going on the list to rewatch with Alexis bc she’s hard of hearing, so this one is probably gonna hit her in the feels extra hard. I was not thrilled the ‘dad’s bestie’ back in the 90’s was the baddie from Duty After School. I know it’s just acting, but lord did that show fuck with my psyche. Other than that I’ve really enjoyed the show.
Ryeo Un has a lovely smile and voice, it’s hard not to root for his character. And I liked Choi Hyun Wook from Twenty Five Twenty One with my dude Nam Joo Hyuk. For real tho, it’s been so nice having a show that surrounds accepting disability so much. Yes Cheong Ah’s step mom was an ableist piece of shit. But do you know how refreshing it was to see a group of teens learning sign language so their deaf friend wouldn’t feel left out? Can we please have more shows like this where the disabled people are accepted into a friend group super easily instead of being ostracized? Yes Cheong Ah started off that way, but it was so nice see the transition of more and more people accepting her. I thought it was also sweet that one of the other guys admitted to liking her too. It was so nice having another show with a disabled romantic lead. 🥹

Weightlifting Fairy is a lot of things but one thing I appreciate about it is that Joon-Hyung in most situations seems pretty mature for his age, but the moment he lays eyes on Bok-Joo, he goes “I was born to annoy that woman,” and proceeds to become the most irritating man on the planet when in a 20 foot radius of her. And it’s so dang funny
