1. The Good Bad Mother
Korean Drama - 2023, 14 episodes
Family, Life, Comedy, Revenge
Really good acting from both La Miran and Lee Dohyun in their mother-son relationship. The relationship between them is so pure and emotional, and there were also a lot of wholesome and lively scenes, especially with all the villagers.

3. Às Cegas
Korean Drama - 2022, 16 episodes

I really looked forward to watching each episode. It was pretty new to me with how the episodes were laid out and even the backstory behind the killings. Also I just like both Taecyeon and Eunji, and felt all 3 main leads fit their characters perfectly. -

Thriller, Romance

5. Responde 1988
Korean Drama - 2015, 20 episodes
Life, Family, Youth, Comedy, Romance
The writing is amazing, and focuses on each character/family in such depth. I initially thought I liked Reply 1997 better, but after finishing up Reply 1988, this was def the most thought out in terms of story and characters.

Don't get scared by the historical tag if you're not into historical dramas, bc this drama combines the modern age with historical :) I had a good time watching this drama; not only is it really funny, but Shin Hye Sun's acting was 10/10 and I esp looked forward to the cooking scenes.

11. Cachorro Preto
Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
Life, Drama
Really good drama with great chemistry between La Mi Ran and Seo Hyun Jin. I wouldn't necessarily label this as comedy because it's a lot more about being the underdog, overcoming problems and school politics, but it definitely brings some laughter and I enjoyed watching this.
