To be honest, I’m surprised it took me this long to create a site dedicated to my newest TV love: Kdramas. It is now the only kind of programming I watch, and since I have previous experience reviewing Hallmark movies, it makes sense that I would also want to review the kdramas I have come to know and love over the past year or two.

It actually began in 2019 when on a whim I turned on Netflix sometime in late 2019 or early 2020 and watched a show called “Love Alarm.” While I liked the show and came to think the male lead (ML) was handsome (little did I know how much I’d grow to love Song Kang!) I didn’t become immediately obsessed. In 2020 I watched the movie “Train to Busan” (starring another ML I’d grow to love, Gong Yoo), and loved it. My daughter later convinced me, in late 2021 to try another zombie movie/series, “#Alive.” And then in mid-2020 I looked for another high school romance like “Love Alarm” and found “A Love So Beautiful.”

But it wasn’t until I watched 2020’s “Crash Landing on You” in March 2023 that I officially became a kdrama fan. Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin fell in love on screen (and behind the scenes!) and I was hooked the moment the last episode ended. Thereafter began my official journey down the Kdrama rabbithole, an in March alone I watched seven kdramas. By August 2023 I was in deep, having watched 15 series and 5 movies, a mix of Kdramas (Korean programming) and Cdramas (Chinese programming).

I eventually signed up for streaming apps like Viki and Kocowa, and surfed social media looking for recommendations of what to watch. I joined a kdrama meetup group in my town so I could discuss my tv watching in a judgment free zone. To my daughter’s delight I started listening to kpop music.

And all of that brings me to this website that I’ve just started, in the hopes of starting to review some of the 200+ movies and shows I’ve already watched and the many more to be released in the future. I hope you’ll join me as we Crash Land into Kdramas.
