I'm in the mood for My Liberation Notes and You Are My Spring thanks to Call It Love.
A watchlist I'm clearly waiting for is to rewatch Call It Love? from the beginning once I've watched the finale episodes.

And then Conspiracy in the Court. Just 8 episodes. This one is high on my radar.

Healer has been at the top of my list for years, but I never end up watching it. I don't know why. Most people here love it, I think I'll enjoy it, but I feel too lazy when the time comes to press play, I always end up rewatching a drama I love or starting another drama. I don't understand myself 🤷🏻‍♀️.

"Unlock the Boss: For when I want something fun and cute with good vibes".

That's what I thought this series was going to offer, however it is quite dark. I wish it was funnier, but it's more about companies intrigues.

Love this topic. I keep a list of dramas that are available to me on various streaming services with loads of info about each one. It can be difficult to keep up with completely (especially as it's not always obvious when platforms add and take away dramas) but it's honestly pretty solid at this point.

I've been trying to educate myself about some "classic" (talking 2010s here, so not actually classic, but well-loved) kdramas lately - ones that people bring up and reference a lot in conversation about and comparison to current dramas. But I also like to switch things up genre-wise, so I have these "classics" split up so that I can sample from different categories as I go through the list. Pretty high on the list right now are My Love from the Star, Healer, Misaeng, and Forest of Secrets. But I get derailed often because I'll watch something and get obsessed with an actor, so probably all of these won't happen in exactly this order. It's tough to find time to watch older things in the rush of new stuff coming out!

I just realized that I'm the odd one, here, lol. When I think "watch list," I think of dramas that have already seen (Watched List). But when others think of "watch list," they think of dramas they want to see (To Be Watched List).

I have a full list of dramas I've seen, cataloged on my username .com site, but the To Be Watched list lives in my head with various levels of success remembering to actually watch!

I do want to do another rewatch of Goong, which is my favorite old kdrama style, high school drama. When life gets busy, it's the perfect show to get my mind off things. ("Busy" and "24 episodes" don't really go together, but it works in the kdrama third dimension where time moves differently!)

Hotel Del Luna.
The Hong sisters are infamous for great ideas and terrible execution, i like the cast bu apprehensive about watching, its been on my watch list forever.

Prison Playbook
This is another one i have been putting off for years, I have no idea why though ill eventually get to it.

Misty.
JTBC is great at producing glossed up makjang dramas with acclaimed veteran actors, i still need to watch this.

I love to research, so when I started K-dramas I built a watchlist based on shows that I found recommended by writers/reviewers over and over again. What is frustrating, is many of these dramas are not available on legit streaming sites and since there are so many other dramas that are watchable they remain on the list unwatched. Just a few weeks ago I finished (and loved) Secret Love Affair. I looked for other Yoo Ah-in works and found that he was in Jumong which has been on my watchlist for years---and I couldn't find it available anywhere (legal). That is true for many of my watchlist dramas including Scarlet Heart Ryeo and Six Flying Dragons. That is the most frustrating thing about watch lists is that they tend to be older dramas which are hard to find. Then if it is a newer drama that I add to the list, I worry that I won't get to it in time. I wish my drama watch list was more detailed though---I only put the title down and have no idea what the drama is about after doing all that research!

Japan - I watched Yuji Sakamoto's Mother, Woman, Quartet and loved them. I still have Matrimonial Chaos (2013) on my watch list.

China - I need to finish Nirvana in Fire 2 before Nirvana 3 comes out.

Korea - Too long, but first on my list is Bloody Heart.

K-dramas that have been on my "plan to watch" list for ages (well, since I entered K-dramaland, a year and a half ago) and I really don't know when I will watch them:

_ True Beauty.
_ All the Reply series.
_ Are you human too?
_ Healer.
_ Do you like Brahms?
_ Fight for my way.
_ Goblin.
_ Descendants of the sun.
_ I'm not a robot.
_ Romance is a bonus book.
_ The smile has left your eyes.

There are many other dramas in the list (old and modern) but I have added them more recently.

My watch list is a rewatch list, this is just a subset:

My Ahjusshi - for the mood and catharsis
I'm Sorry I Love You - crack melo
Nice Guy - fun melo
Ruler of Your Own World - where even the unlikable people are likable (except that jerk dad)
The Great Show - I'm a sucker for found families (several adoptions among my friends and relatives)
Wild Romance - fun pairing, including the second couple (should have mentioned that in the side couple thread)
Thank You - lot of great child performances in kdrama (and some hilariously bad ones) but this one is my favorite
Forest of Secrets - great scooby gang, perfectly strung together plot and unwavering tempo from beginning to end
Healer - it just feels good

I also have a rewatch-if-I-could-find-it-again list, which includes City Hunter, Heart 2 Heart, and Smile, You.

Not having much time this days but i'll say "Call it Love" & " Our Blooming Youth"
And got in the mood over the weekend to watch the c-drama The Blue Whisper with Dilraba Dilmurat & Ren Jia Lun and not disappinted at all...sad i didn't watch it earlier

On my watch list:
Under The Queen's Umbrella
Mawang
Mother
Giant

On my rewatch list:
The Crowned Clown
Reply 1988

Want to watch or rewatch, but not legally available😭😭😭
Conspiracy in the Court
Six Flying Dragons
18 Again
Life On Mars
Lost (Human Disqualification)
Daemang (Great Ambition)

@missvictrix Good Job was a sleeper surprise for me. I went in with no expectations and got a really cute drama that was easy to watch.

I recently started a very long drama, so I don't have a list topper but rather a jumbled list of shows that look interesting. I'm in a bit of a non-committal mode to viewing due to life events, but there seems to be a slew of promising upcoming shows this spring.

For all my logical and supposedly plan-loving MBTI I'm super chaotic, I'm afraid))) Upcoming shows - yes, those I research intensely, take notes, weight pros and cons and make plans far ahead for, but shows that's already completed? Nope. Never. It just doesn't work no matter how much I try. I may think of particular drama for ages - and never watch it anyway or just suddenly feel the urge to pick up something I've never considered before and start it immediately. Don't even let me start about my serial dropper habit... So what's the point of having a list?

I have a watchlist as long as my arm, based almost entirely on beanie recommendations and organized (in my Notes app) by streaming platform or lack of one. I'm also willing to go darkside for things that aren't legally available in my region. I pick whatever matches my mood and doesn't feature a lead actor who's in something else I'm currently watching. I also need to alternate heavy stuff with comedy or romance. At or near the top of the list now:

Forest of Secrets/Stranger 1 & 2
Psychopath Diary
Zombie Detective
Into the Ring
Shut Up Flower Boy Band
Semantic Error
My Ahjussi
Queen In-hyun's Man
Happiness (waiting for my husband to have time and Our Blooming Youth to be over)
Through the Darkness (I keep saying I'm about to start this, but its mood keeps not matching mine in the moment)

Good grief, I just did a rough count and have 65 dramas on my list of possibilities! And that's not including upcoming shows, movies, variety, and drama specials. Obviously I need to quit my day job so I can watch TV full-time.

My watchlist is just shows that has interesting premises (to me), something I'm curious about (such as insights into the kpop/kdrama world), or seem like they might be funny. Things with a fantasy element might usually end up on that list. Since I'm not in the mood for romance, Juvenile Justice is on my list but I don't know when I'll get to it.
Two Cops and Lovely Horribly are also currently on my list but I have no idea when I'll get to them.

I have a table with all dramas that I might watch, and a few that I know I wont. Recently I have not added much... but the list is already quite long.
The notes change according to reviews, and also depending on the desire to see one actor.
There is a note for me, a note for my friend and the product determine what we will watch together.

So on my list the top 3 are One spring night, Confession and Chicago typewriter.
But the dramas I'll watch are probably Jealousy incarnate, Sell your haunted house and Memorist since I watch more in duo than on my own. And I have to confess that I do not strictly follow the list... some drama are propelled directly at the top when they air (Alchemy of souls, Taxi driver 2...)

I don't keep an actual list, but in the back of my mind:

Graceful Family
Haechi
Hospital Playlist 1 and 2
My Ahjusshi
365 Repeat the Year
Never Twice
Welcome to Waikiki 2
Beyond Evil
When the Weather is Fine

Right now, My Liberation Notes has been bumped up to the top of the list because I've seen a few people compare it to Call It Love! I'm also debating between Gogh, The Starry Night and The Secret Life of My Secretary (yes there's a theme here 😂) - any recommendations or opinions as to which I should watch out of the two/which to watch first?

I’ve kinda fell into a kdrama slump. I’ve watched the first two episodes of CALL
IT LOVE but other than that I’m not interested in any of the current kdrama offerings.

I’ll get to DECOY and TAXI DRIVER 2 when I’m back into my thriller mood. The three dramas that I know I’ll enjoy but for some weird reason I keep putting off are:
BE MELODRAMATIC
AT EIGHTEEN
MR. SUNSHINE

Similarly, with anime I know I’ll enjoy:
DEMON SLAYER
Literally watched the premiere of season 3 with my friends at the theatre and yet I haven’t managed to finish season 1??? I don’t understand myself sometimes…

FRUITS BASKET S1-S3
A pivotal anime and manga during my adolescence. Part of me doesn’t want my childhood to be ruined but still the fact that my favourite manga has a completed anime adaptation is a miracle!

Korean books I bought to read but haven’t got to yet:
Pachinko by Min Jin Lee
If I Had Your Face by Frances Cha
I Want To Die But I Want To Eat Tteokbokki by Baek Se-hee

Suffice it to say I’ve got enough on my plate and yet I remain dissatisfied bitch…

I don't keep a watch list. I only have a few titles at any given time which I sample and choose from to finish. Right now they are Money Flower and Good Detective. I also got curious about Human Disqualification from this comment section.

Really enjoy this topic!

--Some background....
Like our fellow-beanie Unaspirated, I have a lists for "To Watch" and "Watched" and "Dropped" on excel. I also use my profile on this site to list my completed watches.

I heavily rely on the "3Rs"--recommendations, ratings & reviews--thank you Dramabeanies!--so I constantly shuffle my priorities.

I have learned that following an "oppa" or "unnie" is NOT the best way to find a new drama for my "Watch" list.

Access without a VPN limits me to USA offerings on Netflix, VIKI, Amazon Prime and Youtube (Cereal). Does a VPN really work--what is your experience?

I do like watching at least one current drama because its so fun to follow the media buzz--right now, I'm enjoying Oasis. It was fun to see "Squidgame" while it was in the global spotlight.

So, on to the topic.....
-- To Watch...

Nirvana in Fire, Love Like the Galaxy (I know, they're C-dramas) and Empress Ki: I keep meaning to watch these but the sheer number of episodes is intimidating. To change my bias on length, I'm currently watching my first LONG drama, A Jewel in the Palace, and I've made it to #38 and still watching! I began adding sageuks after see "The Red Sleeve Cuff."

Signal, Stranger: are highly rated but I just don't seem to get around to them--not my favorite genre.

Bridal Mask, Six Flying Dragons, 18 Again, Chicago Typewriter: Unfortunately, VIKI pulled these for my area. Same goes for Amazon Prime--lots of dramas just not offered in my area. Same question: Is it worth it to get a VPN?

Human Disqualification--unavailable...

Full House, You Are Beautiful, City Hall, Dream High, The Producers, Padam Padam, Hwarang. I keep watching "classics" and older dramas based on recommendations.

Alchemy of Souls--love the leads but I'm not big on fantasy, especially after seeing Bride of Haebek (don't recommend)

Jdramas--I have yet to watch one. Any recommendations? Thinking of First Love on Netflix.

"Coming soon" dramas that top my list: Bo Ra Deborah!, Gyeongsang Creature, DP2, Pachinko2.

--Watched List
DO NOT MISS Kdramas includes: My Mister, Reply 1988, Miseang: An Incomplete Life, Hospital Playlist.

Favorite romances include: Crash Landing on You, What's Wrong with Secretary Kim?, Descendants of the Sun, Weightlifting Fairy, Healer, Queen In-Hyun's Man, Rain or Shine/Just Between Lovers

I do not have a Watch List per se. I do watch out for certain actors' projects or go back into their past films or series (which can be difficult to access).

I never (always) have something at the top of my watchlist. I change my mind every two seconds.
Like a month ago I was watching The World of the Married so Temptation of Wife was on the top of my watchlist and I even downloaded a few episodes, but this is the day and I haven't finished TWOTM and I haven't watched one episode of TOW.

I haven't watch dramas for a few weeks so the new dramas like Call It Love, Oasis, Secret RG are on the top of my watchlist, but who knows I'll probably rewatch Our Dating Sim instead or ask my friend to continue Flower of Evil with me. Some dramas have been on my watchlist for a decade and I still don't know if I'll ever watch them LOL.

So my watchlist is random, or more like horizontal, nothing on the top.

THE LONGEST DAY IN CHANG’NAN (2019) (48 eps.) has been on my Viki US watch list the ‘longest’. The problem for me is that once I start it is going to be like taking a grad course in history and I willneed to devote a lot of time to extra research.

Hmm... Mine is really because of the many clips I've watched on YouTube (drat it!). But on my radar is Dear. M, Doom at Your Service, Our Blues and 18 Again (Lee Do Hyun got my attention from The Glory 😌)
