My updated rankings/reviews of all the k dramas I have seen so far (up to 47 now). I would recommend any show I gave a C grade or higher, which is most of them. I bolded recently added shows.
1. Hometown Cha Cha Cha: An absolute masterpiece. It’s a heartwarming fish out of water story about a big city girl who finds herself in the quirkiest little seaside town. I wanted to stay in Gongjin forever. Grade: A+(Netflix)
2. Extraordinary Attorney Woo (S1): Delightful! Never have I ever rooted for a lead harder. She is the most endearing lead you will ever find. And the male lead is so so swoony. Grade: A+(Netflix)
3. Alchemy of Souls: The wildest of rides and the perfect blend of fantasy, adventure, mystery, comedy, and romance. The characters are just so lovable, you’ll never want it to end. Season 2 just as good as Season 1. Grade: A+ (Netflix)
4. Love To Hate You: New fastest binge of my life. 10 episodes and I didn’t fast forward at all. There were no bad/slow parts. Just watch it. You won’t regret it. Grade A+ (Netflix).
5. Business Proposal: It’s got every trope you can think of and it does them all to perfection. Plus it’s hilarious. Grade: A (Netflix)
6. Healer: This super romantic action mystery drama will keep you on the edge of your seat. Ji Chang Wook is equal parts sexy and adorable which is a seriously winning combination. Grade A (Viki). One caveat: I was very disappointed by a certain wardrobe decision in episode 3.
7. Her Private Life: Super funny and charming. The romantic leads have incredible chemistry. The premise is so good! Might be the one of the most rewatchable kdramas. Grade: A (Netflix)
8. Castaway Diva: Just utterly heartwarming. An instant classic. Ultimate underdog, redemption, story that teaches us what real love and family is. Also Ki-Ho is the new standard by which all men will be judged. Grade: A (Netflix)
9. Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung: Great strong female lead. Very good messages. Couldn’t stop watching. The most adorable prince I’ve ever seen 💜Cha Eunwoo💜 Grade: A (Netflix)
10. Bad Prosecutor: Absolutely thrilling and hilarious. It’s like a heist, detective, lawyer, action comedy that will keep you wondering who is outsmarting who? Super shocking plot twists. Amazing OST. Stuck the landing with a truly satisfying finale. Grade A (Viki)
11. Sh**ting Stars: Probable the biggest turnaround of any show I’ve seen (The “Africa” part was so problematic). However it turned out to be one of the funniest and swooniest KDramas out there. There are 5 couples and you will cheer for all of them. Grade: A- (Viki)
12. Strong Woman Do Bong Soon: The main couple is absolutely everything! Just fast forward through pretty much every side plot (they are not important) and you’ll love it. Grade: A- (Viki)
13. So I Married the Anti-Fan: It’s campy, fluffy, goodness, with a fierce female lead and a K-pop star enemy/love interest. 2nd fastest binge of my life. Grade: A- (Viki)
14. 100 Days My Prince: An absolute classic period drama romcom. Who knew D.O. could kiss like that? Such a great strong female lead. I LOVE a show with adorable, quirky, townspeople. Grade: A- (Netflix)
15. Romance is a Bonus Book: Might be the most romantic K-Drama I’ve ever seen. Nothing about the trailer or setup intrigued me but I’m so glad I watched it anyway. It was a truly beautiful love story. Grade: A- (Netflix)
16. Because This Is My First Life: This drama really does everything right for me… A slow burn romance built on mutual love and respect. Supporting characters who I genuinely cared about and had incredible side stories of their own. A critique of the patriarchy. Women supporting women. An adorable cat. Maybe a bit melodramatic at times but not too much. Grade A- (Netflix)
17. Start-Up: Exceptional acting, compelling storylines, intriguing plot twists, great cinematography, intense love triangle. It’s just all around high quality. Grade: A- (Netflix)
18. Run On: Cute, fun, silly and pretty light. I especially loved the supporting cast. Strange storyline but it was a fun easy ride. Grade: A- (Netflix)
19. Forbidden Marriage: This is a weird show, but weird in the best way. It’s like a comedy, horror, romance, fictional-historical. I don’t know how to describe it but it’s really fun. B+(Viki)
20. Soundtrack #1: Short and beautiful. I just loved it. No one does heart eyes better than Park Hyung-Sik. Grade: B+(Disney+)
21. Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-Joo: A bad-ass yet vulnerable female lead. The main couple just had a lot of fun together. Refreshing. Grade: B+ (Viki)
22. My Lovely Liar: Creative and engaging premise, intriguing mystery, and a swoon worthy romance. A very fun viewing experience. Grade: B+ (Viki)
23. King the Land: This drama pretty much has no stakes or conflict and the main couple has THE MOST chemistry I have ever seen in my entire life. So if you just want to turn your brain off and be happy, this is the drama for you. I absolutely loved it. Grade: B+ (Netflix)
24.Law Cafe: This drama has so much to love, a strong/fierce/brilliant and morally righteous female lead, lovable side characters, steamy romance. But what I loved most was how the show spotlighted important issues like consent and abuse in nuanced and progressive ways. Yes it’s a fun rom-com but it felt like the beginning of a new chapter of more egalitarian storytelling which made me really excited for the future of k-dramas. Grade: B+ (Viki)
25. Not Others: A lovely Gilmore Girls type show about the relationship between an immature mother and her very mature adult daughter. It was a pleasure seeing them grow in their relationships with each other, others, and themselves. I want more! Grade B+ (Viki)
26. Cheer Up: Sports, comedy, romance, mystery, suspense, coming of age, this show had everything. The female lead was the lovable, feisty, driven, and brave. The male lead was adorkable, considerate, and sweet. It’s all very enjoyable and wholesome. Grade: B+ (Viki)
27. I Am Not A Robot: Zany premise but it was surprisingly pretty grounded for how crazy the set up was. It’s funny, emotional, good story telling. Great character development. Grade: B+ (Viki)
28. See You in My 19th Life: The shared experience of watching this mystical mystery drama week to week made it a really enjoyable watch. Not sure if it was totally satisfying, or that any of the couples’ chemistry felt authentic, but it was a very interesting and creative storyline. Grade B (Netflix)
29. Summer Strike: This show made me cry a lot. It’s heartbreaking yet healing. I’m still not sure if I liked watching it or not but it was a beautiful story of found family. Grade B (Netflix).
30. Shopping King Louie: Adorable! So many light fluffy feels for this show but it does drag a bit in the second half. Grade B (Viki)
31. Fight For My Way: Such lovable leads. Love the fierce female lead and adorable himbo male lead. It’s like a coming of age story but for 30 year olds. Storyline was ok. Second couple was skippable. Grade: B (Viki)
32. What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim: More PSJ is always a good thing. This drama did all the tropes in ways that didn’t always feel fresh, but it was very romantic and hilarious. A true classic. Grade: B (Viki)
33. Touch Your Heart: If you can just stick it out through the first few very shaky episodes, you will enjoy this adorable, fluffy, series. Grade: B- (Netflix)
34. Doom at Your Service: It was sometimes real sad yet ultimately a heart warming mystical story. Grade: B- (Viki)
35. True Beauty: Fun, cute, teen drama however, it’s a little too “antsy teen” for me. Cha Eunwoo though💜 Grade: C+ (Viki)
36. Destined With You: The chemistry between the main couple was absolutely sizzling. Rowoon was both hilarious and next level adorable. However, the plot and the characterization of women occasionally made me very frustrated. Grade: C+ (Netflix).
37. Suspicious Partner: Great story, great characters, attractive actors, beautiful romance, interesting plot, sometimes funny, sometimes suspenseful, but with 40 episodes, the plot was dragged. Grade C+ (Viki)
38. Crash Landing On You: The first half is GREAT but the second half is way too melodramatic for my taste. It’s a very interesting storyline, the main couple has insane chemistry, and there are very lovable side characters. Grade: C+ (Netflix)
39. Secret Romantic Guesthouse: First few episodes were a fun scooby gang mystery, middle episodes were super boring, last 3 episodes were crazy fast paced and thrilling. It ended well- I’ll give it that. Grade: C (Viki)
40 Angel’s Last Mission: Love: This drama was very similar to Doom At Your Service but it was more a bit more redundant with all of the tragedy and crying. I LOVED the chemistry of the main couple but I found myself fast forwarding a lot. Grade: C- (Viki)
41. Our Beloved Summer: I LOVED V’s “Christmas Tree” OST however I struggled to keep watching. Boring storyline but great acting. Grade: D+ (Netflix)
42. Heavenly Idol: An absolute hot mess. It was completely convoluted and just low quality but I also weirdly liked it. I can’t bring myself to rank it higher because I know how bad it was but I actually enjoyed it better than many shows I ranked ahead of it. Grade: D+ (Viki)
43. My Secret Romance: The story of a total screw up female lead falling for a manipulative, gaslighting, hottie. It was problematic yet fun? So 🤷♀️ Grade: D+ (Netflix)
44. She Would Never Know: As handsome as Rowoon is, I found his character problematic at the beginning (no means no buddy) but he did get a lot better as the show went on. I just ended up skipping to watch just the scenes with the main couple, which made the show way more enjoyable. Grade D (Netflix)
45. My Love From the Star: I found myself fast forwarding a lot through all the parts that didn’t involve the main couple and most of the flashbacks. Grade D (Viki)
46. Goblin: The age gap is too disturbing for me, like call the police disturbing. However, the Grim Reaper who is one of the most adorable characters I’ve ever seen. Grade: D- (Viki)
47. Extra-Ordinary You: I have never felt so betrayed by a second half of a series as I did in this one. All of the character development that it seemed to be leading to was replaced by a pretty sickening codependent relationship. Grade: D- (Viki).
Currently Watching: A Good Day To Be A Dog (I’m obsessed), My Demon (so much fun), The Story of Park’s Marriage Contract (no promises I’ll finish), Welcome to Samdal-Ri (hoping this will be the drama of the year), My Man Is Cupid (enjoyable watch).
Dramas I’m Thinking About Watching: Gaus Electronics, Bad and Crazy, Hospital Playlist, Another Miss Oh, Oh My Venus, Dear.M, My Roommate is Gumiho, She Was Pretty, Crash Course in Romance
Dramas I just couldn’t Finish (I’m sorry I tried): Today’s Webtoon, Once Upon a Small Town, Love in Contract, Hotel Del Luna, Kings Affection, Record of Youth, Behind Your Touch, Sparkling Watermelon, Tale of Nine Tailed 1938, Strong Girl Nam Soon

pairing/characters: george x reader, fred weasley
description: during the war you were a secret keeper for the twins– fred and your boyfriend george. you were tortured for information, and ever since then you’ve struggled with how to express yourself and trust others. you find that the man who understood you perfectly before the war, can no longer understand why you do things.
a/n: so this is technically a series i suppose? but this is the last installment. i had a lot of ideas for this thanks to talking to the amazing @notstandingstill-imlyinginwait (go follow) and i wanted to get them all down and share with you. i hope you enjoy! this is super long i hope y’all love it
When Fred apparated to your apartment, he expected to see things the way they usually were. A little cluttered, but still fairly clean. What he didn’t expect, was to see it look like a minefield.
He’d come as a favor to George– and to check on you as well. Now that the war was over, between you and Fred getting hurt, George had found himself with quite the anxiety problem. After not hearing from you for two days, and three panic attacks on George’s part, Fred came to figure out what was going on.
Sure– you were quiet, but not this quiet.
“Y/N?”
Your apartment was very small, it didn’t leave much room as to where you could be.
If your living room was empty, and your kitchen was as well– that just left your room.
“Y/N– are you here?”
Fred felt tired. Very tired– he’d taken weeks to recover from being hit by the damned wall and even now walking around a little exhausted him.
Hopefully, this would be over soon.
He swung open the door to your room, and was surprised to find that something seemed to be blocking it. “What the hell?”
“Fred?” your voice was quiet, seemingly muffled from some place that Fred couldn’t see. “I blocked the door.”
“Why?”
“Someone was going to come in and hurt me again.”
A chill ran through Fred’s spine– that paranoid thought bringing back all the ones he now had when any sound remotely resembling an explosion went off near him. “I need you to let me in.”
He didn’t hear anything for a few moments, until the sound of shuffling furniture hit him and the door was able to be opened. You stood before him looking quite awful. Your hair was greasy and you smelled like someone who hadn’t showered in a day or so. Your shirt was dirty and rather tattered.
A far cry from the you he used to know.
He stepped inside and looked around and noticed a few things. One– the bedding from your bed had been removed and was poking out of the closet where you’d set up a little nest. Two– you’d moved all of your non-perishables into your room with you, and judging by the overflowing waste bin of bread and cereal boxes, Fred reckoned you’d been living sequestered in your room for a while. Three– you’d blocked all of your windows with blankets, leaving a little lamp in the corner and the wall figure in your bathroom as your only sources of light.
Four– and most importantly was that you were glancing nervously at the opened door, and taking small steps backwards. “Close the door, Fred.”
Without comment, Fred nodded and did as you said. “What made you think that someone was coming for you?”
Your hand twitched, “I woke up and saw them.”
“They were here?”
“No– I… I turned on the light and they were gone.” you seemed to crumple a bit before him, and quietly Fred opened his arms to squeeze you tight. “I saw them though.”
“I know you did. I believe that you saw it.” he petted your hair and looked around, “How about this– you come and stay with me and George? You can room with him and there’ll be two extra people with you in case something does happen.”
George? How long had it been since you’d seen him– it was hard to tell now that you’d covered all the windows and hadn’t left your room. “Is George okay?”
“He’ll be a lot better with you there. And I think you’ll be the same.”
Glancing around your room– you tried to think of what you needed to take, but seemed to face a rather large mental block, “I need to pack…” your voice trailed off as your throat grew tight, and instead of agreeing with you like you expected, you felt Fred pat your head.
“Grab your wand, I’ll apparate us to my place, you’ll shower I’ll make us lunch and Georgie will come and grab your things.”
“I don’t want to put you two out–”
“Nonsense. You’re family.”
There was a long moment, as your brain seemed to fizzle out before you finally nodded. It’d be a lot safer to stay as a group, than just by yourself. You broke away from Fred just long enough to grab your wand, and allowed him to pull you close again to apparate you to his and George’s apartment.

I retweaked an original prompt set from V3 and linked my ancient Deviant Art in the prompt set and woah!
I never source any base images unless they're mine and none of my photography has ever produced results like this....
However, it also could have sourced my poetry since it's under the same name.🤔
Anyways... these are just blowing me away evolution by evolution.🤩

Summary: Everybody in the kriffin galaxy seems to know you...Except for Poe.
He's not really dealing with that well.
Pairing: Poe Dameron x Reader
Word Count: ~12.5k
Warnings: lots and lots and lots of pining, idiots in love, bit of grumpy x sunshine, angst, fluff, the reader is described as having scars, Poe being a literal absolute sweetheart about everything
A/N: My first star wars fic! Please be kind to me I tried my very best! If anything is inaccurate, no it isn’t and you don’t see it. And please, please, please (as always) let me know what you think! And a big thank you to miss @velvetofyourheart I’m glad you got to meet Poe through this fic, hopefully I did his character justice.
Poe would never admit it to a soul, but he’s a little bit obsessed with you.
The obsession comes on slowly, it creeps in and roots down in his veins before he really has a say in it, before he even meets you.
Maybe obsession isn’t quite the right word.
He has an interest.
summary: The one where the boys don’t know that Eddie Munson is dating the pretty assistant librarian that always helps them out. Dustin has a crush on her. Mike thinks it’s fake. Erica just wants to get home to watch Thundercats.
“Uh, Eddie?” Lucas started, voice small. “Do you have someone over?”
Eddie blinked. “Uh. Just my girlfriend,” he said flippantly, tossing himself onto the sofa and taking a slow drag of his cigarette. “Keep it down for a while, would ya? She had a long night.”
There was silence.
“Your what?”
warnings: none! wholesome fluff here lmao. a lot of d&d references – curse of strahd is a banger
This is an absolute religious experience that I was not prepared for
Whoever did the caps for this deserves an award
howl and sophie 👒
It’s finally here!!!! It took me literal months to compile this HUGE list of Bellarke fics but I felt like this was a good time to get it out to you guys. I feel like with the influx of canon bellarke information, we’ve gotten both validation and heartache. So here are some of my favorite fics (196 of them to be exact). I tried to group them first by canonverse/modernverse. Then by main trope (marriage, babies, canon divergent, roomates, etc). I also then put the smaller tropes in parentheses so you guys can find something specific you’re looking for like angst, fluff, oneshots or multichapter, bed sharing, smut, etc. I also wanted to write in trigger warnings (TW) when I could, though tbh there aren’t very many because most of these are fluffy. I also put a small warning when Bellarke is in other major relationships at any point during the fic because tbh I hate not knowing that.
summary: steve made promises he couldn’t keep, sam made you brand new.
pairing: sam wilson x fem!reader, steve rogers x fem!reader
warnings: angst, heartbreak, whole lotta sad - brief mentions of violence, like three curse words
word count: 5.3k
A/N: hi this is my first sam fic, I hope y'all enjoy it I got a bit carried away lmao
as always, feedback is greatly appreciated, tell me what you thought of this fic!
“You have my heart sweetheart, forever.”
“You are the love of my life, no question about it.”
“Until death do us part sweetheart, that’s the deal.”
You wanted to scream, bury your head into the gravel of the driveway and scream until the Earth’s core trembled with your rage. Bloody knuckles and tear stained cheeks were all you had given yourself, no rest, no peace - just anger and the most painful heartbreak any human being had even endured.
He promised to stay, to love you until you were both old and spending your days sitting on the front porch watching your grandchildren run around with the wind in their hair and no cares in their hearts. He promised to love you through sickness, through world catastrophes - God knows there was always more than one - through battles and wars.
He promised to love you until death did you part.
