Year-End Special: 2015 Drama Round-Up (Part 1)

I’ve been looking forward to writing this ever since I got the idea in my head. In this post, I’ll be writing brief reviews about all the dramas that I watched this year. So this doesn’t necessarily mean that the dramas were all made in 2015 as the title of this post may have suggested. This is part 1 out of 2 2015 Drama Round-ups that I’ll be writing.

My year in dramas is pretty colorful which I need to highlight: 1.) I watched a lot of C-dramas more than I intended to 2.) It was my first time to watch a drama while it’s currently airing 3.) I went beyond my habit of watching C/TW dramas by watching J-dramas (yay!) 4.) It also concerns going beyond my habit: watched a period/wuxia drama for the first time! 5.) I was able to watch some dramas which have been collecting dust in my never-ending plan-to-watch list already haha! and most importantly, 6.) I started blogging about dramas!

I’ll be dividing it into parts: STORY IN A NUTSHELL (without spoilers, I promise!), POSITIVE (+) & NEGATIVE (-) things about it, and my OVERALL RATING.

So are we ready? 😀

[Review] C-drama: My Best Ex-Boyfriend (2015)

Consider this as the condensed version of all the recaps + other thoughts that I wrote from before here 😉

It has hit 1.5 billion views in China, so why not try and watch it? :D

It has hit 1.5 billion views in China, so why not try and watch it? 😀

Just like my First Impressions post, I’m going to divide my drama review into different sections to make it easier for both of us!


DISCLAIMER/NOTE: Since this is a review, I definitely won’t be spoiling anything because I believe that a review is mostly used by people as their basis/reference for doing (in this case, watching) something. It may either persuade or turn you off in watching this drama but I’m just here to provide my own opinions and other thoughts about it.

[Recap of Episodes 41 & 42] C-drama: My Best Ex-Boyfriend

LAST RECAP POST OF “MY BEST EX-BOYFRIEND” EVER?! Wow, time surely does fly fast! Before anything else, I just want to thank all of you for patiently reading (and waiting!) my recaps and random thoughts. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have continued writing these recaps at all. I actually never intended to write one at first since I had no experience in writing one before and because I have also been very busy. But look where we are now, I’ve literally dropped anything else to watch and write about this drama all the way to its overwhelming number (42!!) of episodes!

Special acknowledgement to Viki for subbing this drama as fast as lightning! I seriously thought that Jerry Yan fans like me would have to wait for months or so before this gets subbed but wow, they managed to finish it even earlier than China’s release. So thank you so much, Viki!

Thank you to the production team of “My Best Ex-Boyfriend” especially the cast and crew for making fans like me happy! I know that they may never get to see this but I still want to thank them for giving us a very enjoyable drama to watch.

Most importantly, thank you to all the readers! It brightens my day to see the number of views increasing every time I would post a recap and much more when people would actually comment their own opinions about the drama. Xie xie ni! 😀Screenshot 2015-09-06 00.15.26Screenshot 2015-09-06 01.15.06

[Recap of Episodes 33 & 34] C-drama: My Best Ex-Boyfriend

This recap post probably wins for having the most number of photos/screencaps because of: 1.) both episodes 33 and 34 just gave a lot of reasons to screencap which you’ll know if you decide to read more 2.) we’re slowly approaching towards the end of the series so all the possible happenings in the drama are starting to reveal (or have revealed) themselves.

So are you ready for this long recap post? 😀

[Recap of Episodes 31 & 32] C-drama: My Best Ex-Boyfriend

My apologies for posting this late because my internet connection seems to disconnect whenever it’s time for me to watch/blog. How unlucky lol! Despite my unluckiness, good luck seems to keep showering on “My Best Ex-Boyfriend” as it has already earned 1.5 billion views for today’s episodes that I’ll be recapping yay! With this, let me share with you a photo that Viola Mi (whom we haven’t been seeing as Xiangnan) shared on her Weibo to celebrate this success!

Episode 31 started with the famous line that Fangsi said to Tang when the full trailer was first premiered! With two of our main leads out of the picture (Tang and Xiangnan), both of these episodes are centered on Fangsi, the heroine! Speaking of Fangsi, it’s Maggie Jiang’s 29th birthday today yay! She has already become my instant favorite by just watching this drama. Wish her all the best! 😀
