What Are We Watching - WAWW

What dramas have we recently watched/ are currently watching - We share our impressions of these dramas.

Completed Dramas

2021/22 Releases:

1. Our Beloved Summer : The perfect slow-burn romance if there ever was. Choi Woo Sik and Kim Da Mi’s acting brilliance, great soundtrack. Must watch
2. Taxi Driver - Crime Thriller. Great plot up to Ep10, then it went downhill as a typical revenge drama. Esom’s prosecutor was kickass. Not a bad watch.
3. The Silent Sea - Dystopian Thriller. Reflects a world that could be reality for future generations. Gong Yoo and Bae Doona dynamic is the highlight. Minal and Poonam recommend this.
4. Bad & Crazy: Action/Thriller. Mainly for Lee Dong Wook in Action role. Good banter between Wi Ja Hoon and LDW. 12 episodes - Recommended by Sangeetha
5. Ghost Doctor: Fantasy/Medical. Witty banter, ghosts, good use of tropes, some great performances - Rain, Kim Bum, Uee, Sung Dong Il, cleaner ajumma. Watch, if you need a good laugh, says Sangeetha.
6. Mad About Each Other: Romcom but leads have mental health issues. Realistic portrayal and heart-warming. Recommended by Poonam.

Older Dramas:

1. Mr Sunshine: Period Drama set in late 1800s/Early 1900s depicting Korea’s fight against Japanese invasion. Great ensemble cast, one of the best female leads in KDramas , beautiful cinematography and a gripping storyline. We all highly recommend it .
2. Dalja’s Spring : Noona romance - strong female leads. Recommended by Sangeetha
3. While You Were Sleeping: Fantasy/Legal. Great writing. A healthy love triangle. Jung HaeIn ruled this drama. Recommended watch.
4. Flower of Evil - Crime Thriller. Great plot, Lee Joong Gi steals the limelight. It’s a crime drama, but Minal loved how it explored complex human relationships and trust. Recommended watch.
5. I am Not a Robot: Romcom. Ridiculous plot but a lot of fun. Poonam recommends it for a fun light-hearted watch.
6. Entertainer - Absolutely wholesome drama. Sangeetha and Poonam suggest hanging in there for initial episodes, the drama picks up after 3 episodes and is emotional, but heart-warming.

Currently Watching

1. Thirty Nine - First 2 episodes were underwhelming. Didn’t measure up to the high expectations given the cast.
2. Forecasting Love & Weather: Messy start, but has picked up from episode 3. Strong female lead.
3. Twenty Five Twenty One: Favourite amongst all of us. Kim Taeri is stealing the show, but the entire cast is essaying their roles well; especially Choi Hyun Hyuk who plays Ji Woong. Join the bandwagon with us :)
4. Chocolate : A healing drama where the main leads - a neurosurgeon and chef come to work together in a Hospice and heal themselves with the patients. The friendship between the male lead and his friend, is one of the best Minal has seen in Kdramas.
