😂😂 I loved watching this one so much... couldn't stop laughing. The bodyguard understood the assignment 😂

"Weekend-only contract lovers" my foot — they kiss every single time they lock eyes 💀 Chen Si keeps making moves, and don't even get me started on the finger-lacing detail... This isn't a contract, it's a full-blown love affair 💗

Wanted to watch this because Kim Han-young plays a dual role. It's a revenge romance: the heroine's life collapses after her husband's betrayal, and she marries a man who looks exactly like him to get her revenge. The two doppelganger-alike men and the heroine's emotional arc are the real draw, and the back half ties up every loose thread. Kim Han-young splits into the trash ex-husband and, post-remarriage, the wife's uncle-in-law — really fun to watch ^^

Gorgeous visuals, solid acting — it quietly grows on you. Highly recommend if you're after a comfort watch.

A warlord-and-adopted-daughter story. It's watchable, but the ending is loaded to the brim with China-hype.

'Your Highness the Crown Prince'... I was confused from the jump. The story keeps hopping between comedy, thriller, and romance. But why is it just not fun? Even the comedy bits aren't funny, and the female lead's a shaman's daughter, so if she shares a room with a ghost she has to receive her calling. What even IS this plot, and then at the end it's suddenly like 'it was Yeonsangun' with an open ending. Not fun. I love ghost stories, so this one was a disappointment.

The visuals early on are genuinely gorgeous, a real feast for the eyes... but that's where it ends — the story's just thin 😔

Romanticizing a literal stalker is a hard pass for me. Flat performances and a plot full of holes.

This is easily one of the better short dramas out there. The acting is way less cringe and the storyline isn't a copy of every other one made.

Yeoreum and Bada, childhood friends of 20 years. A dizzying, cheeky little love story about two people walking the line between friends and lovers. Watching it gives you butterflies for no reason and also makes you spiral about how, if you date and break up, you can't even go back to being friends. The kiss on the swing was great, both leads are gorgeous, so I had fun. Recommend it to anyone who loves that delicate friends-to-lovers gray zone.

Solid plotting since it's based on a novel, but a little bland — the male lead's abs, though? Nice 💀

The ending left a weird aftertaste, though.

Easily one of my all-time top 10 short dramas.

Handsome Jin Ju-hyung is in this~ Pale skin, and boy does he deliver a good kiss. It's got all the stuff you see constantly in Chinese short dramas — grandma's hospital bills, contract marriage, the swapped fiancé, meeting as boss-and-secretary and falling in love~ Seen it all before, but I watched for Jin Ju-hyung~ Total time-warp of a drama~ so much fun ^^

A steamy night with your dad's best friend? The title alone had me like... And he's 20 years older, so, uh, really? Our lead Hae-na gets burned by her boyfriend's betrayal, falls for an older man she meets by chance, then bam, turns out he's her father's best friend and the drama kicks off. The older-man/younger-woman angle plus the forbidden family taboo builds some tension, but honestly it didn't quite deliver on what I was hoping for. A bit of a letdown.

The title alone makes you go "okay, but what exactly do they only do on this island?"~ And yeah, I got my answer. Blew through the whole thing the second it dropped. A young shaman, an evil spirit, and souls, subject matter you just won't find in Chinese short dramas, which makes it even more fun.

Kim Han-young in a BL?? Wild. Honestly the acting was SO cringe I nearly bailed, but I toughed it out. There's a twist they saved up but it wasn't as fun as I hoped, kinda a letdown. Still — Kim Han-young doing BL? More shocking than I expected!!!

Title's "Sexy Marriage"~ already sold from the name alone. Comes in hot with a bold setup from episode one, and the leads have that bickering will-they-won't-they chemistry. A breezy grown-up comedy you can just kick back with. Lead reminds me of Chinese actress Cho Mo-an. Candy Kiss the kiss scenes in eps 27, 29, 35, 50, and 51 are worth it.
