I need a recommendation for a fun #cdrama #kdrama #jdrama #ThaiDrama to watch. I am stuck with too many drama-dramas and need something fun. Otherwise, I will end up watching "Falling Into Your Smile" for the eleventh time this year (probably not an exaggeration).
Things I like: characters and their relationships to each other! "Semantic Error" has fun and doesn't take itself too seriously.
Things I'm not interested in: procedurals, horror, gritty violence (but "Alice In Borderland" was good)
@jillithd @geraineon Oh gods, I love this show.
Also, was it the staircase? Or "why did you smash it?"
@jillithd I've been slowly watching "Tale of the Nine Tails." It was originally recommended to me by @ChefWritesAllot a while ago.
It's not a comedy, but it's pretty light and focuses on character relationships. It sometimes veers a bit too far into the romance genre, but I can live with that. Each episode is at least an hour, which is great, and I'm just generally having fun with it.
Guas Electronics is fun & light
Fight for my Way is also fun, but does have some drama-y moments.
...and we learn a decent amount about sound engineering in the process.
I love that about kdramas. Learning about start-ups, weather forecasting, historical surgical techniques, the art of subtitling translation ... all with romance mixed in.
@jillithd Did you get a chance to watch Wedding Plan?
It technically has a spoiler for Love In The Air, but only technically. Shocker of shocks, relationship configurations happen in a show about relationships.
Anyway, it's much lighter than LITA, in multiple ways. It also makes cute, if arguably "silly", aesthetic choices, like stylized text popping up about how someone who is a character's type has returned, along with a cloud heart from his chest.
But it works! I like them.
@jillithd oh good. i wasn't sure what you've seen or not :)
do you have an MDL watchlist? i'm Elisheva there.
forgot to include Behind Your Touch. i haven't seen it but some people find it a good laugh once they get through the initial premise.
@emmaaum
Yes, I'm on mdl: https://mydramalist.com/dramalist/jillithd
I really enjoyed Behind Your Touch! I am a fan of SUHO, plus it was really silly between all the murdery stuff. ๐
@jillithd I think we don't have a single completed show in common :) Though I do need to get around to Hidden Love. I just keep ending up back in Thailand :)
We need more silly these days.
@emmaaum ha! I saw you have "Semantic Error" on your to-watch list. I really love that one. Watch the series, not the movie (which is just the series put in one, but some scenes were shortened).
I haven't seen much Thai yet, so there is plenty of new stuff to see. ๐
@jillithd gave Semantic Error a high priority :) I need to get around to it.
These are my favourite Thai series so far. I am new at this and slow.
Enigma is creepy supernatural so I thought to maybe try to organise a watch party the week before Halloween. Would you be interested?
I keep thinking to make a list of my favourite Thai series so I remember them better and so I can put Moonlight Chicken Not Me He's Coming to Me at the top. Perhaps a misguided endeavour but here goes :) GMMTV BLs were my start and well represented because they're often good for found family,โฆ
@emmaaum ooo, thank you!
Thank you for the invite, too! I have work visitors in town next week plus an Eric Nam concert, so I don't have time for a watch party. Next time!
Thanks for the recs!
@jillithd
Throwing in a suggestion for Light On Me

@jillithd Reply 1988 is one of the funniest #kdrama I watched
