It does stumble a bit at the very end with the conspiracy plot, but the core love story is very satisfying. “ Healer” -Another Kdrama favorite of mine that perfectly balances action, conspiracy, and romance. To this day, no other male lead has pulled off the mature/reliable, hot, and manly CEO quite the same way as Jang Dong Gun did. This one features a very intense rivalry between two females and a very sweet love story. “ All about Eve” -My all-time favorite Kdrama and a retro masterpiece. Here’s a masterfully crafted mv that showcases the overall picture our beloved couple’s doomed love story in its full, respective glory (really feeling the love/hate dichotomy) using the amazing Ost song, “Love Catastrophe”: The Ost is also incredible, with “Love catastrophe” ending up as one of my favorite drama songs of all time. The leading couple in here torn my heart out and I couldn’t get enough of their scenes. I loved episodes 1-15 and 30-end the most (drama did get rushed towards the end, but the actual climax was phenomenal). This drama features irreplaceable leads with explosive chemistry, an obsessive/complex/powerful ML, a high quality production, and a decent script that mainly stayed on track even if the pacing did slow down massively from episodes 15-29. I personally also consider this one a 10/10 drama, but my subjective biasness is more at play here. “ Goodbye My Princess” (55 episode director’s cut version) -Masterpiece tragic romance with more flaws than my above top three. “ Someday or One Day” -Masterpiece romance mystery touching romance with an external plot that’s very cleverly wovenīoth of the plots in “Nirvana…” and “Someday…” have a lot to offer for non-romance watchers, but the plot in “Ten Miles” is all about the romance, so I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone who dislikes love stories. “ Nirvana in Fire” -Masterpiece historical fiction with some light fantasy elements probably the most flawless 10/10 drama of these three The overall Ost is phenomenal too and features one of my favorite drama songs of all time (Jason Zhang’s “三生三世” -its poetic lyrics and powerful melody blows me away to this day)!
“ Ten Miles” -Masterpiece romance still the best love story I’ve ever watched and nothing beats it. They all brilliantly executed their main point/purpose, so I can’t help but give my rare 10/10 stars for all three. Here’s some of my thoughts down below: Your blog is a treasure trove of drama possibilities and I thank you for its upkeep!Īs for my cream of the crop favorites, I consider “ Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms,” “ Nirvana in Fire,” and “ Someday or One Day” all to be masterpiece dramas within their own respective genres. subjectivity that I find them invaluable. That tells me nothing about the actual quality of the work.Īll of your beautifully written reviews contain just the right balance of objectivity vs. So many people judge everything purely based on how it made them feel that I can never take their reviews seriously since the way an individual reacts to anything varies. Chemistry btw leads can’t carry a drama with a messy/non-existent plot. Of course subjectivity is important (I can’t ever give a perfect score to any work that leaves me stone cold, no matter how technically perfect it is), but that can’t ever be the only judging criteria. I love how all three of you place importance on storytelling and character development first and foremost. You’re one of my top three go-to-reviewers for Asian dramas, along with Avenuex and PeachBlossomGoddess (reliable mydramalist reviewer). Yay, I’m so happy you ended up loving “ Someday or One Day” and adding it to your favorites list! I remember gushing about it on your “ Hotel Del Luna” review two years ago.
