it looks interesting. i want her to be a witch. it's nice to see jo bo-ah in stuff again. but im so behind on my kdramas!

was heartbeat, king the land and see you in my 19th life good? i think it's funny 2 2pm guys were in stuff at the same time. from what i saw, it seemed like king the land was most popular?

Haven't seen Heartbeat.

Watched half an episode of King the Land but idk it didn't grab me. I hheard it takes a few episodes to really get going though,

Watched See You in My 19th Life and thought it was cute but didn't quite live up to its potential.

Heartbeat - not seen

King of the Land - Junho is worth watching, but the chemistry with him and Yoona was off for me. But it is a typical KDrama, so no harm

See you in my 19th Life - I actually ended up liking it more than KTL. It had a better ending. The leads worked for me too.

I liked the leads of Heartbeat. I am interested to see who Won Ji A plays in the Squid Game sequel. I was a fan up until the last episode because the ending was...a choice lol The writing was a bit of a mess, but nothing too awful. They would have benefited from a good script doctor. If you're in it for the vampires, you'll be disappointed.

King the Land was cute. Both lead characters had good communication skills, which for some reason drama watchers aren't a fan of 🙃

I haven't watched the last two episodes of Heartbeat yet, but it does have hands down some of the most terrible CGI/SFX I've ever seen in a kdrama. Thankfully there isn't a lot of it in the series but DAMN is it tragic. Also the villains all have terrible motivations and are almost cartoonist, and there are three of them because the ran out of "100 year old adapting to modern life" plot ideas two episodes in.

But the leads are both good actors and do magic with the bad dialogue, so would recommend as a fun watch if you want something you don't have to invest in finishing right away.

King the Land was good fun, I watched for Junho and he delivered on every level. I'd never seen Yoona in anything until this drama, but I knew that her acting tends to get mixed reviews, so I was actually pleasantly surprised by her comedic timing and their chemistry as leads. The healthy communication between their characters was especially really nice to see.

I found See you in my 19th life tedious and it was only 12 eps. The first 4 eps were really good but then the quality deteriorated quickly

I loved King the Land!!
