Currently Watching ...

SMILE,YOU (Kdrama)

YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL (Kdrama)


Autumn Concerto (Tw Drama)



Loving all of it !
NO complains... episodes are all exciting !
Go watch it for yourself ~
Smile You + U're Beautiful are 2 of the better ones after Shining Inheritance !
super funny !!!!
Autumn Concerto pretty much has a predictable storyline
but its a tad different from the other tw dramas I've seen.
kinda old-skool 'feel' i get!
I'm still stuck with soo many 1/2way through dramas to add on.......
- Gourmet *3-4eps more to finale*
- Painter of the Wind *1/2 way*
- Vineyard Man *1/2 way*
