Hi Bushy! I'd like to ask how did you get into k-dramas/ c-dramas and what are your favorites? I'm currently watching Love between fairy and devil and I'm so into it!

oh man i've been into asian dramas since I was a little teen. like while all my peers were into anime i gravitated toward jdramas, before eventually getting into kdramas and more recently this past year cdramas. I think I love the stories and that they're shorter overall than western tv, so I don't have to keep being engaged over the years.

Narrowing down my faves is soooo hard but for folks who want to get into kdramas my recs would be (under a read more because I used a lot of gifs):

Coffee Prince - all time fave, just the best characters and sweetest story. The ending was meh but I adore them all so much, this will always have a special place in my heart. Also the OST still SLAPS. Also also I know I used the term my best girl a lot but Go Eun Chan IS ACTUALLY the best girl she is like my dearest friend

Strong Woman Do Bong Soon - MY BEST GIRL (yes i know what i just said) and my best pathetic man, adore them and this story. Kdramas have this fun genre thats basically romcom with a side of murder and I eat that up. Also two of my favorite actors ever

Twenty Five Twenty One - I have to rec it because those first 12-14 episodes were the best episodes of any drama I've ever seen. Just phenomenal. Might break your heart but worth it tbh

When the Camelia Blooms - see: romcom with a side of murder genre. also just adore everything gong hyo jin is in

Healer - it's got its problems but the identity shenanigans are top tier just YEAH

Extraordinary Attorney Woo - I know western fans might not be so impressed with the fact that the actress herself is not on the spectrum, but I thought the portrayal was very well done and considering how this is the first kdrama depicting ASD characters as the hero, it's an incredible first step. Also it's just so adorable and wonderful I even put up with my hatred of legal dramas for it. Also whales.

Her Private Life - prettiest main couple ever i could stare at them forever. i'm not a fan of the childhood connection plot but i accepted it for this, also Sian my baby boy

Goong - SO DATED NOW but it's my first kdrama so i gotta rec it omg. But arranged marriage enemies to lovers YESSS AND MODERN MONARCHY YEAHHHH

Moonlight Drawn by Clouds - the crossdressing trope is a big one in kdrama and i always enjoy it look im a simple gal okay. also i adore the female lead so much

A Business Proposal - kookie fun, just so much fun djkfhsd. Wonderful friendships and romance. Thank god this aired while 2521 was on air cause i don't know how i would have survived tbh

Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo - JUST THE CUTEST MAIN LEADS LIKE GOSH I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

Those are the ones off the top of my head I have to admit I am BEHIND and i don't always finish a drama, because tbh it's really a mixed bag and they can be good or absolute garbage but depends on your interests. I tend to gravitate towards romance genres but theres a lot of intrigue and mystery and action and melodrama there's really something for everyone. And not everyone will agree with each other on it but still

I'm new to cdramas but I really loved Love Between Fairy and Devil, stellar throughout. I gotta rec The Untamed because my best boys but it might not be for everyone. I'm still working on New Life Begins but it's very cute and feel good.

Give me more recs btw! I love them!

#i havent watched jdramas in years so my recs for that would all be like ten years old at this point dkfjds #there's so many more i could have made an endless list i keep thinking of more but i had to stop myself sdjkfhdskj #asked and answered #Anonymous #kdrama #WHY ARENT THERE MORE GIFS OF COFFEE PRINCE FFS #looking for gifs makes me want to rewatch all of them ahhhh they are just so ahhhhh #i didnt put gifs for everything cause some of these i definitely have properly tagged so you can find them pretty easily i think #also disclaimer because they're mostly grossly heterosexual because good asian lgbtq+ representation and rights are still very much an #ongoing process but there have been a lot of good ones that have come out recently...i am just YEARS behind on my drama watchlist sdkjfhds

what’s your favourite piece of clothing you own?: right now it’s a denim jacket I got a couple weeks before my top surgery! (listen i’m bisexual i don’t know what you expected, it’s part of our Brand™)

what hobby would you get into if time wasn’t an issue?: god so many but the foremost would be rock-climbing/bouldering, swimming, aaand probably kickboxing. plus like, fencing and archery because I did two (2) archery classes a while back and it was so fun oh my god

what would your perfect room look like?: HM i’m seeing a decent-sized space with lots of natural light and those super delicate gauzy curtains. probably a big desk to write at and lots of bookshelves/storage space cause i’ve never had a big fancy desk before and also i’m Messy. i feel like there’d be a lot of yellow! not on the walls but in paintings and cushions and blankets and such - speaking of which, so much art on the walls. i like to think there’d be room for a lil settee too so i have somewhere to chill other than my bed.

who’s your go-to band or artist when you can’t decide on something to listen to?: hozier, most of the time! depends on The Mood™ though. sometimes it’s hozier sometimes it’s against me sometimes it’s the rat pack, it depends

which city would you most like to live in?: HM i’m not a fan of Huge cities but i do like to have access to mcdonalds at 3am. whichever city it was, it’d probably be somewhere warm because i’m a Delicate Soul. maybe italy if i spoke a word of italian sdkjfhds

What was the last thing you purchased?: i believe it was a copy of the first book in the raven cycle! i’m looking forward to it i’ve heard Good Things

dream job?: 👨‍🚀👨‍🚀👨‍🚀 astronaut! or honestly any job at the european space agency, i could run coffee at that place and die happy yanno??

This or That

1. solids // patterns

2. sneakers // booties

3. handbags // shoes

4. flower-print dresses// classic blue jeans

5. champagne // tea (i don’t drink but the Drama is too good to pass up)
