[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 24: Which Series You Wish Continued

And I end this amazing calendar with a post especially for Mila!!

I also want to thank Luthien for creating it - I had so much fun and it helped me get through December!

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 23: Which Character Did You Prefer?

 

If I had to choose just one - and now, people, just hold on to your hats - I would choose Jeon Nokdu. For various reasons.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 22: The Best Bed Scene

The king and queen can be only one and this year - it really is.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 21: Favorite Song

I actually presented some of my favorite songs from different soundtracks of this year.
But one is probably my ultimate - I listened to it the most.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 20: Which Character Would You Like To Meet?

I would lie if I didn't say Nokdu, but for the sake of keeping this blog diverse, I will play along and say it's someone else. See, this even makes me rhyme.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 19: What Drama You Wanted To Watch But Ended Up Disappointed?

 

The first place goes ex-aequo to two sci-fi shows. This genre is my favorite and I'm ready to stick to something if it engages me even a little. I don't really need for the show to be The Expanse level of complexity, real science and full bloodied characters, I just don't want to split my skull open every fifteen minutes. 

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 18: Whom You Identify With?

I usually don't identify with any character, not to the point I am trying to find my own reflection in somebody else. I may like somebody and understand their motivation but they are not my mirrors. If that was the case, I'd have to identify with THE horse Maximus from Tangled, you know...

But if we're talking about some similar feelings I see in a character (be it any gender, honestly. Or a species) then I think this year's winner is clear.

And no, it's not Nokdu.

But...

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 17: Series You Loved That No One Talked About

That would be without a doubt Elementary. I know only one person who watched it and loved it and that's it. 

But then again, I wasn't that much online so maybe some messages just went past me unknown.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 16: The Biggest Risk

In the series of my monothematic Calendar this year...

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 15: Best Bromance

I'm calling my cheater card and choosing the gang from Prison Playbook as the winner this time.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 14: The Best Kiss

No one should be surprised (except for Mila, I guess, poor girl) I'm picking Nokdu but not for the kiss you all think.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 13: The Best Villain

For a short while I was hesitating between Yulmu (Tale of Nokdu) and Homelander (The Boys), but after a careful weighting pros and cons, I'm opting for Yulmu.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 11: The Best Chemistry

That would be my laboratory classes during studies in which we...

Oh, the other chemistry. 

If we're talking about series, there was nothing better than Nokdu and Dongju chemistry on screen this year.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 10: Drama Crack

In the original Luthien's post it was worded so beautifully as "coup de cœur" so everyone is probably guessing which 2019 drama was worthy, for me, of this expression.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 9: The Best Womance

I was hesitating between Search: WWW and Tale of Nokdu and after a whole day of pondering over it I'm picking Nokdu as the winner.
At this point I should probably stop participating, right?

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 8: Characters That Gave You Thrills

Now, we have to separate two different kinds of thrills - the absolute terror and the rapture. 

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 7: Most Beautiful Realization

Granted, I did not watch many Kdramas this year, and having any sageuk in such category renders the competition moot. No one should be surprised (hi, Mila!) I'm picking Tale of Nokdu. 

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 5: A Drama With The Most Innovative Premise

Hands down - The Boys.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 3: A Drama You Loved Following

 

This is not going to be a huge mystery - Nokdu came and took me by storm from the first to the last minute. And even beyond that, because all of those "making ofs" and behind the scenes we were given.

[Advent drama calendar 2019] Day 2: Actor/Actress I'm happiest to see back on screen

Well, that's a no-brainer :)
