TOP 9 DRAMAS I WATCHED IN 2023
inspector koo (2021) - everyone here is a different flavor of fruit, crime show exclusively made for girls and gays and it’s the best thing that ever happened to me
when i fly towards you (2023) - this is what happiness is all about
doom at your service (2021) - “love me to the point that you want to destroy the world for me” that’s it that’s the line
love all play (2022) - wfkbj for people who aren’t annoying
little women (2022) - second half felt like a makjang damn the writers were spiraling and i couldn’t stop watching (gay little women i love you)
twinkling watermelon (2023) - worth the hype
bloodhounds (2023) - i remember my letterboxd post for this saying you can almost smell the testosterones through the screen but it was absolutely binge worthy, kinda homo if you ask me!
daily dose of sunshine (2023) - park boyoung is the loveliest human being
law school (2021) - is it insane to beg for a season 2 the chance is low but nonzero… right?
HONORABLE MENTIONS
hidden love (2023) - im tired of people saying the word chemistry about the main couple but it’s true they invented it
designated survivor: 60 days (2019) - maybe political dramas aren’t always badly written, also han nakyung please give me a chance
celebrity (2023) - user joanyio stop finding invisible gay subtext in every show you watch challenge failed
the good bad mother (2023) - such a gem *continues to ignore mommy issues*
time and him are just right (2022) - cute and perfect for mindless watching in the background while you do other work
the worst of evil (2023) - instead of forcing the love triangle turned love square the writers should have made all four hot main characters make out with each other it would have been perfect
and because of love all play (2022), see also:
castaway diva (2023), witch’s diner (2021), and unlock my boss (2022) (although i haven’t finished this one yet) chae jonghyeop is my new lee dohyun (read: male actor i enjoy watching multiple projects of simply because he doesn’t give me the ick). i also rewatched hot stove league (2020) for park eunbin and jonghyeop after castaway diva, still one of the all time best dramas i remember it used to be my twitter handle years ago baseball is so cool i wish it was real
DRAMAS I STARTED LATE DECEMBER 2023 AND FINISHED EARLY JANUARY 2024
shining for one thing (2022) - please don’t watch this show it was made only for me and i’d like to gatekeep it forever
reset (2022) - never watched a drama execute time loop plot device as perfectly as this did
UNFINISHED BUT PLANNING TO CONTINUE SOON
derailment (2023) - i was baited by a tiktok i thought it’d be a cute silly little high school drama but boy was i surprised
one day off (2023) - she’s living the dream

project update
The lore post is being delayed. I have been doing some major rewrites and streamlining certain lore and plot points. Things I had planned have been removed or changed. I'm trying to tighten things up and remove extra fluff that does not add anything but extra confusion with the only payoff of kinda cool and re-focus that effort into things that affect the plot more or feel more connected to the wider world.
If you're wondering what was removed, originally, I was planning on adding Powerlinx like the Energon trilogy, but instead of just minicons, other bots could also combine in a similar way. This was a really fun concept I really liked to explore. But at the end of the day, it often went underutilized in the plots I made, and as the AU developed, the lore and story I told became more and more complex and pulled itself away from normal tf lore, and the powerlinx concept got pushed to the side becoming an unnecessary underused blob of complexity instead of naturally fitting into plots often it felt stapled on, I do love this concept I really do, but it's become obsolete in my current draft.
If you're wondering about what the lore post was about, it was Powerlinx. I had some of the art done for it and all the text, but while making this, I started to realize how it dragged my work down instead of pushing it forward.
The plan now is to focus on the things I think my story does well plot-wise and lore-wise. The Powerlinx concept was added when things were much more bare-bones, but I have a lot of fun concepts now that fit together much better with each other and the overall plot; I am excited to share. I will be doing another lore post based on another thing from my AU that I am confident about, along with working on that mini-test comic. I'm kinda burnt out from working on that lore post I never finished, so I will be doing some random au art for a bit, taking a break from bigger projects.
If you would like to see some of the cut Powerlinx art and concepts, I have a link to some of it; not all of it can be shared due to spoiler reasons, but you can have a peak into what was to be but never was.

I need to give Aeryn more ritualistic scarring…
From Orin not Gortash, that’s important. Gortash is all about the mental scarring with Aeryn, The Physical Gort Scarification Incident was merely a reaction to The Orin Scarification Incident. a reclaiming.
So Orin doing the same thing back when she lobotomises that little freak feels very in character.
and then there’s Kressa Bonedaughter. I don’t even know what to say about all that. and the Emperor’s Astral Tadpole if we’re speaking a bit more metaphorically. (and you know Gortash is PISSED about the cosmetic changes that has on him)
my point is: can people stop using this guy as a canvas please.
(sicko voice: not really though. never stop. break him more.)
