I’m quite proud of myself. This winter break i finished quite a few dramas so here is the list
Original Sin - definitely recommend. It’s a really good drama, very thorough with police procedures, quite believable in that department. The two leads have very good chemistry and they even sing the ending song together (I love it when leads are talented and the director asks them to sing for their drama). Overall, a very good drama. There is a season 2 coming since season 1 kind of ends on a bit of a cliffhanger but the season 2 doesn’t start till December of this year (sadness)
Evil Minds - I was a little disappointed by this one, not gonna lie. Everything was really good up until the last 4 episodes, where the drama was basically like “oh, everything you just watched up until now? It was a lie” and quite honestly, that made me a little angry. Also, this drama just kind of mind fucks you, so if you’re into stuff like that, then watch it. If not, DON’T
S.C.I. - I’ve watched this drama so many times don’t even get me started. It’s such a good drama, the chemistry of the entire cast is great, the two leads are just *chefs kiss*. So good. It’s based off of a BL but you know, China and their gay laws, so it’s like...not quite a bromance, but like an established relationship kind of thing, you know? I don’t know how to describe it, but it’s good
The Untamed - watched this drama in 4 days (i know, 50 episodes in 4 days...I was dedicated) I actually watched this drama during the school year but fuck, it’s so good. So fucking good, oh my god. If you haven’t watched it yet, FUCKING GO WATCH IT
Nippon Noir: Detective Y’s Rebellion - actually a really good drama. It’s like a mix of supernatural stuff (towards the end) and police drama. Really good. Highly recommend
Sherlock - It’s like BBC’s sherlock, but I actually like this version better, I don’t know why. The first two episodes are subbed and everything else is raw at the moment, but whoever is subbing is updating, it’s just taking a while. But still good, even if the episodes are raw
Suits - yes, the Japanese version of Suits. I’ve never seen the American Suits but I really enjoyed this drama. It’s very funny, the cast is good, would definitely watch again
Doubles - definitely a really good japanese police drama. The two main leads have really good chemistry and they also do a very good job at portraying policemen as well as the human side of things as well. Definitely would watch again
Chiisana Kyojin - y’all...I just finished this drama and it’s so good, oh my god. It does a really good job of show police corruption and how it affects everyone. The two leads are just *chefs kiss*. Good chemistry, bit of love-hate going on there, end up being good friends in the end. Highly recommend
Missing Noir M - another crime drama (you see a trend with the kind of dramas I watch) but this drama mainly deal with missing person cases. Still good. the leads are great, the drama kind of ends on a bit of a cliffhanger as well (i don’t know if we’ll get a season 2 but I hope so). Definitely would watch again
Vampire Detective - cheesy, I know, but it was actually pretty good. This one also ends with a cliffhanger but i enjoyed watching the whole thing. Kind of happy that the lead’s love interest died at the end (spoilers, sorry) because she was annoying and I didn’t particularly care for her character. Would watch again
So, overall, I’ve watched 9 dramas in total (S.C.I. and The Untamed don’t count since I’ve watched S.C.I. during my sophomore year and the Untamed last semester) and I still have more to watch. If you want to recommend me some stuff, please, hit me up! As you can see, I like crime dramas/shows as well as mystery, law, medical, and detective dramas. So, if you know any good ones, let me know!
