7 out of a potential of 25 beans, i actually can't believe i haven't finished so many things, i have commitment issues methinks...but here goes:
TUNNEL:🍬🍬🍬
FOREST OF SECRETS:🍬🍬🍬
SCHOOL 2017:🍬

Mad dog only got one (╯з╰) That makes me a little sad, but I'm happy Because This Is Our First Life got so high. I'm still currently suffering the list of both my Monday/Tuesday and Wednesday/Thursday drama in one go. Post drama withdrawal syndrome is real.

Ooh i watched 14 dramas this year! Not bad for a newbie like myself.
I dropped just one drama this year and three more ( Circle, Mad dog and Go back spouses ) are on hold.

Goblin🍭🍭🍭🍭
Tunnel 🍭🍭🍭🍭
BTLIOF 🍭🍭🍭
LAHL 🍭🍭
Defendant 🍭

If I had more, I would give 3 more to Defendant and 1 to Missing 9

I just realized I dropped a lot of these dramas... or I took a break and never went back to watching them. I think I finished about three of these >_<. Lol but it felt like I watched and finished so many!!

i know forest of secrets is good but i did not expect that it would have the same bean count with seven day queen... i should probably start watching it now...

As soon as December hits I can’t wait for Year in Review!

It's that time of year again...! Time flies so fast! Also, PRETTY BEAN COUNTER GRAPHICS!

I watched more dramas than I remembered, and dropped a bunch halfway through. The stand out shows I loved this year were: Goblin (3 beans), Chief Kim (2 beans), Strong Woman Do Bong Soon (1 bean), Chicago Typewriter (3 beans), Circle (3 beans), and Because This Life Is Our First (3 beans). I watched more shows, obviously, but didn't feel like they were in the same caliber as these shows I awarded beans to.

I opened this post and scrolled down just to see how many beans Because this is my first life had. And then, 34!
Wow.. I'm glad so many people liked this drama :D

Now, I'm really looking forward to catching up to all the other highly recommended dramas. I'm an extremely impatient person and thus cannot follow on-air dramas and usually wait for them to either complete 3/4th or completely.
Once hectic December ends, I'm gonna start my binge-watch according to DramaBeans Year-end Review like I always do. ^~^

2017 was a bad slump and I didn't finish most shows so I only have 11 beans.

Chicago Typewriter ***** (5)
for Seo Hwi Young's wig (and for being awesome of course).

Because This Life if Our First ***** (5)
for the whiplash emotional ride. And Nam Se Hee.

School 2017 + (1/2 bean)
for Tae-swoon's arm veins.

Age of Youth 2 + (1/2 bean)
for the girls (especially Jo Eun).

I only have six beans, but I'll happily split them between Chicago Typewriter and Forest of Secrets, the two shows that really grabbed me this year. I am thoroughly enjoying BTLIOF right now as well, so I may want to through some bean love towards it too once I finish it.

wow, lots of beans on rescue me. quite unexpected since it had poor # of comments during its run her in DB. woo do hwan magnet haha

I have a measly 9 beans. I wished I watched some bad dramas just to have some more ammunition to give to the good ones:
Because This Life Is Our First +++
Seven Day Queen +++
Lingerie Girls Generation ++
Chief Kim +

So which shows did I watch?
1. Goblin
2. While you were sleeping

I just got 2 beans now😣

even BTLIOF beats Goblin! daebak!!!

I only manage to finish 4 dramas this year! :/

Because This is My First Life and Circle brought my obsession back to Korean dramas. So I will give 2 beanies to each of them.

Only 3 beans! Because This Life Is Our First, Seven Day Queen, Circle

Where are HeadsNo2 and Gummimochi ? I have a sad 😞.

My beans to
1. Goblin
2. Hwarang
3. The King Loves
4. Black

Those 4 dramas are my crack.. I used to be a silent reader in DB, but boy those dramas, especially TKL, brought my other crazy side... LOL

I haven't watched Because this life is our first as well..Guess with it being the highest in the bean poll to date. I should check it out..

Finished seven on that list. I’ve been watching C and or J dramas to make up for it.

I realize dramas I watched year to year haven't changed much. I watched and finished around 13-15 shows each year (not counting the shows I drop in the first episodes). So here I am, having 14 beans to share for:
1. Forest of Secrets: 4
2. Goblin: 2
3. While You Were Sleeping: 1
4. Seven Day Queen: 1
5. 20th Century Boy & Girl: 1 (I actually enjoy it way more than the bean I could give and don't understand why such show is disliked by DB writers. Personally I could relate to the show and I love the slice-of-life approach that seems realistic to portray friends, families and loved ones.)
6. Temperature of Love: 1
7. School 2017: 1
8. Mystery Queen: 1
9. Suspicious Partner: 1
10. Tomorrow With You: 1

Spent a lot of time watching past dramas and re-watching some favs, so I only have 5 beans. I'm just gonna have to go all Oprah on my shows and give each of them a bean because I liked them all lol!

Chicago Typewriter gets the first bean and is my overall favorite of this year's shows (and in my top 5 too)
WYWS gets a bean because it was so heartwarming and because Batman Cop and Robin
SWDBS gets one for the cutest otp Bong-Bong and Min-Min
Suspicious Partner gets a bean for it's adorable and hilarious first half
Strongest Deliveryman gets a bean for cuteness and the ridiculous and adorable second lead couple

I am so excited for the Year in Review! I've only watched a handful of 2017 dramas. I wonder how many I can cram in before the end of the year.

It feels really weird that one of my top dramas got the most beans in 2017: BTLIOF, of course. Last year I don't think my favourite dramas got even a pity bean. But yeah, BTIOFL is fresh on everyone's minds so it naturally gets more awards (too fresh on mine, as the ending put a damper on my enthusiasm).

So... I have 15 beans! For what I considered a mediocre year, I've live-watched more dramas than ever before. Giving all my love to TKL, Chief Kim, Rebel, Chicago Typewriter and BTLIOF ep. 1-12:

Goblin
Hwarang
Chief Kim ***
Rebel Thief Who Stole the People ***
The Liar and His Lover
Man To Man
My Only Love Song
The Best Hit
Seven Day Queen
School 2017
The King Loves ****
Chicago Typewriter ****
Hospital Ship
Buamdong Revenge Club
Because This Life is Our First *

Ah.... Reading the lists just reminds me how little dramas I watched this year. *blames life*

Aw, I have a humble list of completed ones this year. I didn't venture out of romcom/slice-of-life either. I gotta try getting out of my comfort zone next year. For now I'll get into the festive mood and give out--wait, what? no candy cane emoji?!--oh well. There goes my Glen Coco reference.
Next best thing I guess.

Goblin 🍪
Here's the milk: Killer soundtrack, impressive production budget, Gong Yoo.

Liar and his Lover 🍪
The warm milk: Lee. Hyun. Woo. I just love that guy. Finally have a drama to seriously and proudly push on friends to make them get why I love him so much. Also fell in love with Joy and the Crude Play boys 😭 The whole thing is just precious.

Strong Woman Do Bong Soon 🍪
That whole milk: Fun.

School 2017 🍪
The tall, sexy glass of milk: Tae Swooooon. Also, Sejeong (the reason I checked out Produce 101 and fell down, down, down the Kpop rabbit hole this year).

Fight My Way 🍪
The organic milk: I finally love Park Seo-joon in something. Choi Ae-ra was so much fun too. They were so good together.

Suspicious Partner 🍪
The yummy dairy: JiJi (Wookie and Ji Hyunie) is now one of my all-time favorite couples, and it doesn't matter if I'm talking about their characters in the show or the actors in real life. They've got mad chemistry either way. I truly loved the ensemble cast here too. Unforgettable villain.

Father is Strange 🍪
The good-for-your-bones drink: I'm beyond satisfied I got to live-watch a family drama this year, and it turned out to be an awesome one too.

Because This Life Is Our First 🍪
The rich and creamy milk: Where has Lee Min-ki been all my life T_T
I've seen him once before on Shut Up! FBB, but wow I'm so attached to this actor now. I'm starting to binge-watch his older movies, and maybe his dramas next. This drama came out of nowhere for me. I really liked the premise and teasers we got, plus I'd just watched Jung So-min in FIS. I just didn't expect to love it so much right off the bat, and fall even harder as episodes went on. Much has been said about the closing week, but I really do love it as a whole. I just dug the tone, the kind of comedy it had, the chemistry (oof my heart), and the themes. I'll always look back on it fondly, and it's now one of the special ones in my heart.

These were all imperfect dramas in different ways, but I loved them all the same. I was very happy to have watched them live, and I enjoyed the torture of waiting each week.

In addition, this year I also watched in one go (no particular order):
-Reply 1988 (worth all those long episodes IMO)
-I Remember You (major feels, just a great show period)
(I missed Bogummy terribly this year)
-Healer (Hot damn, that was an awesome ride)
-What Happens To My Family (My first family drama, and loved so many things about it. I would gladly re-watch it in the coming years)
-Cheese In The Trap (loved a couple things, and a bit angry at others)
-The K2 (unexpectedly watchable, but...

I only finished 6:
Strong Woman Do Bong Soon (could not stand the slapsticky humor and the homophobia)
Radiant Office ❤
Fight My Way (cute but too lighthearted)
The King Loves ❤ (Si Won!)
Age of Youth 2 ❤ ❤
Because This Is Our First Life ❤ ❤ (This show was so close to perfection!)

I just started watching K-dramas this year, so I only have 4 beans from 2017. I give stars:
Romantic Doctor Teacher Kim ** (special mention, not in list!)
Chief Kim **
because they got me addicted to k-dramas! =D

this year is year of legal drama , a lot of detective,prosecutors drama :D

As always, shocked by how many dramas I watched during 2017 (and my bean count only includes those 2017 drama that I watched and finished). My 34 beans are allocated as follows:

- General and I (Chinese drama) - 10
- 3 Lives 3 Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms (Chinese drama) - 10
- The King in Love - 4
- Go Back Couple - 3
- Because This Is My First Live - 3
- School 2017 – 1
- Strong Woman Do Bong Soon - 1
- Age of Youth 2 - 1
- Father is Strange - 1

As expected, I only have 15 beans. That's a very low number compared to last year (roughly 30 counting both Korean and Japanese dramas), but I took a lot of time off this year. Therefore, it becomes relatively easy to allocate the beans:

Goblin - 3
Chief Kim - 1
Strong Woman Do Bong-soon - 1
Seven Day Queen - 2
The Best Hit - 1
While You Were Sleeping - 2
Because This Life Is Our First - 3
Go Back Spouses - 2

Looking at the list, I'm such a hopeless romantic, not allowing any other type of drama to climb to the top positions LMAO

This chart makes me happy.

BTLIOF came in at the end and knocked all our socks off!

I'm so happy that Live Up To Your Name is in the top 10! Definitely my favourite this year, along with Individualist Ji-young!

I watched BTLIOF, Goblin, Live Up To Your Name, Liar and His Lover, Fight My Way, Solomon’s Perjury, Go Back Spouses, and Individualist Ji-young = 8 beans!

Live Up to Your Name - 5
Goblin - 2
Individualist Ji-young - 1

Did HeadsNo2 not participate?

Out of 67 in total for 2017 dramas, I have only watched 14 dramas, 8 became my personal favorite, 6 others were forgettable. I dropped 11 dramas in the middle of watching it because I realized that I didn't even care about the story or the character or whatever was going on in that drama

Here's my bean count

So far this year I watched a total of 15 Dramas from Beginning to End, Dropped 18 of them either at the beginning or middle of their run and have 6 still left in my "To Watch List" all from 2017. If this isn't consider an Addiction, I really don't know what is?

In the spirit Of the review season, I'm game. Although it has been a slump year yet managed 9 beans

BTIOFL- ###
Circle - ##
Goblin - ##
Strong Woman DBS- #
Tunnel - /
Voice - /

Don't ask me why. It's been a slump, even with this number. But RL. It's largely the lead woman's role and partly feel good. Great storytelling. Great production.

Because This Life is Our First - Love, love, love my favorite for this year. Next is the Seven Day Queen - Love it too.
