My Top 3 Korean Drama BFs

I thought I would have watched tons of new dramas when it was in lockdown. Turned out stressing about the future made me want to rematch instead of venturing into something new. I've started several dramas and couldn't commit to finishing it. Abandoning a drama was easier now. When I didn't like the plot, character, or when it was heavy drama, I dropped it. I value my peace of mind now rather than that sense of accomplishment that comes with finishing a drama.

I've always wanted to make a post like this. This was supposed to be for Valentine's Days, but I couldn't finish it on time. With the inputs from my sister, I selected my three best boyfriend materials from Korean Dramas I've seen.

There are ton of spoilers in my post, so if you haven't seen it, please be warned. All three are available on Netflix. New Journey To The West Season 7 and 8 are available on Viu. I wish all the older seasons are available there too.

January 2021 Wrap-up

Wow. I haven't posted anything in 2 years. To put it shortly, those 2 years were rough. Last year was COVID and more. The year before that was a string of events that bled into one another. But things are a little better now. I don't remember how I used to find time and write blog posts before, so here's me trying again with some stolen time.

But something's never changed. I kept on reading and writing. With reading, I managed to achieve my 50 books goal last year because I included volumes of manga and short stories. Broken Throne by Victoria Aveyard was the last book I read for 2020. It seemed fitting. The true end to the Red Queen Series. The happy ending I was hoping for.

For 2021, I'm also aiming 50 books. I don't want to pressure myself and just take it easy. If I surpass it then that's good. If not, then it's also good. 

I like planning what I read and how many pages/percentages I have to go through everyday. It's satisfying to hit those. I found that it's easy to spread out hard books daily and that I could finish contemporary/romance novels over the weekend.
