🎨 today's webtoon
an athlete starts over in the webtoon industry, learning how to make people’s dreams come true.

a coming-of-age story that doesn't glamorize being a paid artist. not a romance, but a great office teamwork drama.

day 6 of posting underrated kdramas!

😨 my shy boss
a woman investigates the boss of her deceased sister, believing he caused her death. 

the shy person isn't reformed into an extrovert! female lead gets creative about communication. It's mostly cute, but check 🧵 for triggers.

💼 search: www
a woman who is unfairly fired from her company, joins their competitor

the female leads are the soul of this show, pursuing career above all else. the romance is amazing, but not the central story.

💄 my id is gangnam beauty
a woman who gets plastic surgery before college struggles with her new face

i prefer it over true beauty. it looks more deeply at the impact of the male gaze. the romance is decent, but the antagonist is GREAT.

quick review of the ex-morning!

a fun watch. I liked their chemistry. a solid redemption story with good banter and grown-ups who actually know how to use their words (thank goodness).

if you like second-chance romances & bickering lovers, you might like this one!

finally got around to thamepo: heart that skips a beat

i didn't expect to like this so much. the last 2 episodes made me cry (in a good way). the romance was great, but i loved a deeper message throughout - success is yours define…

review - Not Me // a BL with PLOT. I devoured this show. I was really impressed with the depth of emotion and the social context. if you’ve been wishing BLs would deliver more social commentary, start watching this right now.

🎬 watch on youtube (GMMTV)

finally catching up on Our Unwritten Seoul and it’s just so good. I love how we see the contrast between each character’s self-talk and the stories they tell themselves vs. how they are actually seen and known by people around them. So much there about the assumptions we make 😭

study group // why is this show SO good? fight scenes are insane, the physical comedy is perfect, and stakes are unexpectedly high? I've never loved a school show so much!!

the lead is a certified weirdo and I love him for it.

My Golden Blood final thoughts…

Overall? I found it too melodramatic (especially the soundtrack). The title OST is gorgeous. I like the actors and their chemistry well enough, but nothing about the show really stood out to me.

(I’m lukewarm about vampire stories though)
