Day 4: Drama friendship

When I thought about Dramas that were really all ABOUT friendship, these two came to mind first, and both are easily the highest scoring Dramas that I've listed as having "friendship" as their primary theme

#cDrama #DearEnemy
#kDrama #DivorceAttorneyShin

Friendship is absolutely at the core of both these very different Dramas and what elevated them both.

Day 5: Villain
S1 of #ForestOfSecrets WAS my fave but I learned years later the actor was ALREADY a convicted sex offender then.

SO, onto happier stuff
Day 6: Family

The first #kDrama I ever felt moved to blog about, in a post longer than any of my current Drama blog posts.
#YeahThatsHowItIs

Everything about this family Drama was near-perfect Good luck finding it though: When I watched it, Kocowa had it, last I looked, no one did

Day 7: Revenge Drama

#MarryMyHusbandJPN
I didn't even CONSIDER this one until someone selected it for this day on bsky, but of course it is a revenge Drama. But so much MORE than a revenge Drama.

NOT strictly a remake of the #kDrama version - because both were in varying stages of production at the same time, this one ended up a co-production. And a VERY different beast by all accounts. A journey from revenge to personal growth.

Day 8: Enemies to lovers

The Song Joong Ki #kDrama #InnocentMan qualifies, as does the #twDrama #BehindYourSmile but since this is about favourites, the 9.9/10 I gave to #LoveToHateYou makes it a clear winner:

A FUN romcom with just about everything right - including lots of on point social commentary, and the complete absence of serial killers
