Hi Beanies.

Join me as we plead with the drama gods for good (read as memorable) dramas this year. I’m tired 😩

My favorite dramas of all time list has not changed since 2020. Help!!!

    I join you in earnest prayer! But I think your list not changing is not a bad thing. It means you are a loyalist 🙂. I am discovering old dramas myself these days. And they are SOOO worth it even today. I think it’s okay to watch/ like/ finish dramas sparingly. It keeps you from becoming jaded 🙂.

      I respect this, a good outlook on things this is 🤔

      I’m being watching dramas since 2013, thankfully I’m not jaded yet although some dramas have tried (looking at you Blood 🥴)

    My all time favourite Chinese drama is from 2019 (“The Untamed”) and I have 2 older all time favourite Kdramas— “Save Your Last Dance for Me” (2004/2005, it aired over the New Year) an “Marriage Contract” (2016)… All is good!! But I feel ya— overall, I only finished 10 dramas in 2023 and dropped 3

      Matchmakers totally made it onto my all time best list 👍🏼 (and no lie, it’s been a while since that happened).

        Every time I comment on another drama now, my first thought is, “Well, it isn’t The Matchmakers, but…” 😀

          Yup, dragged myself through Park’s Marriage and My Demon waiting for them to achieve liftoff but nope! But I’m really loving Flowers in the Sand 😍, it’s a contender.

            I’m going to start that today! Beanies seem to be overall quite happy with this one!

            Honest opinion about Park’s Marriage… Cute couple, decent actors, needed a better script. I only stayed because the CP worked on me.

    Like Flowers In Sand is great so far. If it sticks the landing, it would be a perennial favorite.

    I love sageuks and most of my favorites are older dramas. The most recent non-fusion masterpiece I have watched is from 2019.
