🌿🌸🏖️2024 Roundup🍂☔️☃️

1️⃣ Your favorite drama.
🤔 Such a mixed bag: There were a few dramas I really liked this year, even though endings fell flat mostly. I definitely laughed the most with NO GAIN NO LOVE. Really loved the actors, the female lead, the sisters, the bee costume. I’m watching FAMILY BY CHOICE at the moment, and it has my whole heart. I simply couldn’t stop binging through MR PLANKTON, because it was so gripping and had the quirkiest characters. But looking back, I enjoyed the watching experience best with DR SLUMP: I was looking forward to all of the episodes (slightly less to the later ones), & rewatched most of it straight away. The fanwall posts & discussion on DB were just lovely on this! Best Use of Blooming Cherry Trees Award goes here as well + ToDs be damned. 🌸🌸🌸

2️⃣ Choose a Female lead.
NO GAIN NO LOVE‘s Son Hae-Yeong. Doesn’t take any bs, takes time to think about what she wants and works towards it, affectionate and hilarious with „her people“. Self-aware, looks as good in a neckerchief and business attire as she does in punky red hair & fake fur. That surprising lapse in the last episode was definitely the writer’s fault, not a flaw in her character. ☝️🫰👏
