Day 24: Time Travel Tale
A Time Called You - I was glued to this one even though it stabs you in the heart. Complicated and suspend all physics disbelief (as with most time travel tales) but they somehow make it work. Nostalgia, mystery, thriller, sweet.

Day 18: Must-Watch Fantasy
Not really being into the fantasy genre in kdrama-land I'm going to be lazy today and just go with, you guessed it: Alchemy of Souls - Entertaining, could fit into the "all the tropes" category, funny. It's also forever staring at you on the Netflix home screen if the algo gets a whif of kdrama interest :blobcatgiggle:

Day 17: Enemies To Lovers
This is a pretty common drama theme, but lets spice it up a bit and do a combo.
Our Beloved Summer - Well done childhood/school enemies to lovers fare with a beautiful soundtrack and some nice twists. However, if you combine it with The Witch: Part 1 as a prequel you get some real ENEMIES to lovers action. :blobcatgiggle:

Day 14: A Therapy Drama
Doctor Slump - Ah, I get warm and fuzzy just thinking about this one. It was exactly what I needed when I watched it; soo healing.
(The PHS PSH chemistry is off the charts :blobcatgiggle: ).

Day 13: A Hilarious Comedy
Barely watched any "kcomedies" as humor sometimes requires cultural knowledge, so short list😅 . Gaus Electronics was on my list since the beginning but it's been mentioned already so I'm throwing in Sh**ting Stars (more Rom than Com) for free. Light hearted office setting "comedies". Gaus is a bit heavier on the puns so big thanks to the Viki translators for bringing ALL THE NOTES

Day 11: All The Tropes
A bit apprehensive about todays choice because of …, but anyway
Queen of Tears - This has almost everything; chaebols, white trucks, memory loss, side arcs, umbrellas etc. I think the only thing missing is time travel.
… guess the tropes even spilled over into the real world. 💀
Kim Ji Won is great as always.

Going with a movie this time.
The Witch: Part 1 - A lost girl finds a new home and family and realises her dream of becoming a singer… with a twist. :blobcatgiggle:

Day 9: A Twisty Revenge
The hard part of this one is to dare to pick one of the obvious candidates that @AnnaAnthro already mentioned. However, today I'm feeling brave :ablobcathappypaws: so let's go with: The Glory - Bullying victim gets revenge... yeah, that's about it?! :blobcatgiggle: Great production and acting all around.

Day 8: A Slice Of Life
I just had to get this drama on the list and today's category is as good a fit as any. My Liberation Notes - In some ways it feels like a hyper realistic slice of life and in others very dreamy. Absolutely a slow burn so the correct state of mind is needed when viewing. But if you're in the right place it is a beautiful drama in all aspects; both happy and sad.

Day 6: An Office Romance
There are hundreds of these ones so I just got to pick one: Love Scout - Perhaps nothing genre breaking but I like the tension and chemistry and there are a lot of cute moments.

Day 5: A Compelling Historical
Due to recency- and PEB-bias I changed this at the last minute. :blobcatgiggle:
The King's Affection - This has everything from palace scheming to (convincing) cross dressing. 20 eps is long but if you're in the right mood this is perfect.

Day 4: A Powerful Performance
Extraordinary Attorney Woo - Park Eun Bin turns in an extraordinary performance playing autistic lawyer Woo. A very enjoyable and heart warming drama.

Day 2: An Epic Love Story
The challenge somewhat (in my head) suggests an historical drama but I'm gonna go with time travel. Lovely Runner is pretty epic in scope in its own way. Never really knew how they were gonna pull it of in the end but they did.

Drama Recs Challenge!
Looks like this is happening even though I barely have enough k-dramas in my bag. Was gonna post it yesterday but life happened.
Day 1: Their First Drama
Business Proposal - Funny, colorful, bubbly romcom with the right amount of tropes and not that much (forced) angst. Only 12 episodes too instead of the usual 16, so more bingeable. Legendary second leads. :blobcatgiggle:
