Dramas I watched in 2022
This year I watched a lot of dramas, I began to watch BL dramas and a watched A LOT, I got addicted, so most of the list will be BLs. It may or may not be in chronological order.
1) My little happiness
It’s an almost enemies to lovers, but the “enemies” part is forgot right in the begining, so it’s an old friends that got apart to lovers. I really enjoyed, the actors are from one of my favorites cdramas “Put your head on my shoulder”, their chemistry is really good and I had fun watching. The 2nd couple is really good too.
Where to watch: Viki.
2) Semantic Error
Ok, here we start the BL fever. I LOVED Semantic Error. It’s my frist BL, and it’s on my top 3 dramas of the year. It’s fun, heartwarming, the main couple is amazing, their chemistry is great. After I finished the drama, I started reading the manhwa, and I realized that de kdrama is way more soft than the comics. Anyway It’s great!
Where to watch: Viki.
3) Be Loved in House: I do.
This one was a recomendation from a friend. I enjoyed, It’s not an amazing drama, but it’s good. The acting is ok, but not great. Its an enemies to lovers, boss/worker relationship, and a sharing house situation, so there’s a lot happening. I iked the main couple, but I don’t really liked the 2nd couple, and to be honest I think they made the wrong choice to dedicate the last episode to this specific character.
Where to watch: Viki.
4) When Your Eyes Linger
I don’t really know if I liked this or not. The 2 main characters were friends and one of them is like the body guard of the other or something like that. We have a problematic family here too, so there’s a lot of drama. One of the actor were great and the other not so much, and it was very evident in some scenes.
Where to watch: VIki.
5) Cutie Pie
Probably my first thai BL, and man...they don’t joke around. I really enjoyed, It’s a arranjed marrige situation, where the main character loves his fiancé, but the guy doesn’t really look like he wants to marry. And what I like the most is that the main character decides to break his engagement, bringing chaos to his world. It’s really funny, I laughed a lot, the couples are great, and I became a fan of Zee, he’s a great actor.

6) HIStory 3: Make Our Days Count
Well, we have here a complicated situation. It’s a high school romance, the nerdy guy and the school’s good-for-nothing. It’s a beautiful romance and everything, but to be honest... I hated the ending. Like, I just hate it so much. Some people might like it, but I’m not one of them. The positive point of the last episode is that the actor that does the main character is AMAZING, his acting is so touching, it made me cry. Another thing that I don’t like, I noticed that it happens a lot in tawainese drama, is the relationship between a teenager and a adult man. “ah, he is in his last year of school bla bla bla”, I don’t care, he’s a teen, and the other guy is like 30-35, it’s not right people. Ah, I amost forgot: the OST is INCREDIBLE, I got addicte to the opening song.

7) Why R U?
I LOVED IT. Tutor and Fight are one of my favorite couples of this list, I loved the plot, even with all the problems. Aparently they were not the main characters, it would be Zon and Saifah, but I saw on internet that the had an issue with the pandemic and they had to change the plot. But it doesn’t matter because I loved all the couples. The story is hillarious, the couples had great chemestry, and I recomend you not to watch on the tv, because there’s a lot of mature scenes. Ah, Zee and Saint are here.
Where to watch: Viki.
8) TharnType and TharnType: 7 years of love + TharnType Special
MY FAVORITE DRAMA OF THE YEAR. I love TharnType. I know they have this problematic relationship, and they do a lot of wrong stuff to each other and that they’re not the best couple of the dramaland, but I love the characters, what can I do? I had fun, I laughed, I cried, I got angry, it’s a rollercoast of emotions. I understand who doesn’t like, but I enjoyed a lot. If you want to watch I have to say that the drama has a lot of triggers (ped0f****, h0m0f0bia, abusive relationship, r*p*), and I recomend you to look for it before watching. The first 4 episodes are terrible, they do all the wrong things, but latter it get’s so good. I can’t help it, I liked. Ah, I love the OST, it’s great.
Where to watch: Viki (1st and 2nd season), Bilibili (special).
9) Love by chance
I watched this drama for 2 reasons: 1) they’re in the same universe of tharntype (the story happens in between the seasons 1 and 2), 2) Saint is the main character. Tbh, I don’t really liked the drama, I thought it was a bit boring. I know there’s a continuation, but I don’t really feel like watching.
Where to watch: Viki.
10) Why Women Love
This one is one of favorites of the year. The couple has a great chemestry, I loved how the relationship was developed. It’s a “noona drama” (the woman is older than the man), it’s a boss/worker relationship, but I don’t know if I can classify it like that, because he’s the heir of the company so... I really recomend this drama, the actress is amazing, and the ML is none other than Wang Zi Yi from Nine Percent!! (yes, the bg from idol produce s01).
Where to watch: Viki.
11) A Romance of the Little Forest
This drama is 50/50 for me. In a general way, I loved, I loved the main couple, I think they’re great. I am all for cientist that are make up bloggers and their high school crush. But the 2nd couple is horrible. I skipped basically all their scenes. The way their relationship was developed is just wrong in a legal way. Awful.
So this drama is a 5 stars for the main couple, and a 1 star for the 2nd couple.

12) Mr. Bad
I love the sinopses of this one, It’s about a girl that acidently makes a wish to get a boyfriend, and brings a character of her fanfiction to life. It’s a enemies to friends to lovers. I love the character development that happens here, the way the relationship changes, It’s f*cking great! You know, I literally screamed when they hold hands for the first time, It was that good. Althought the story has this magical setting, this is an office drama, but without all the fighting that we usually get. I liked basically everything but the ending, It was not bad, It’s just I don’t usually like that concept that they used to fix everything.
Where to watch: Viki.
13) Business Proposal
I think it’s one of the most popular dramas of 2022, It’s a very cliche story, I think everybody knows about it alredy. I liked, I had fun watching, I loved that it was only 12 episodes, I think the ritm was great. The main and 2nd couple were AMAZING, their chemestry was incredible.
Where to watch: Netflix (Brasil).
14) My Sweet Dear
A really nice web drama, the episodes had 15 minutes each I think, it’s a cute story about two chiefs that are competing to be the main chief of the restaurant. The OST is GREAT, I got addicted.
Where to watch: Viki.
15) Roomates of Poongduck 304
It’s a ok drama, cute, the acting not so great, but a great way to pass time. I heard one of the actors, or both of them, will be on Boys Planet, I hope the do well there.
Where to watch: Viki.
16) Lovely Writer
Here we get back to the thai BL dramas world, I really enjoyed this drama. I think It’s a really down to earth drama. It’s about this guy that writes BL books, and one of them get to be adapted to tv, and in the casting day he meets this actor that is really atrative and really wants to meet him.
Where to watch: Youtube.
17) 2gether/Still 2gether/ 2gether the movie
For like, 2 days I thought this drama would be my favorite drama of the year, but latter I got to watch more dramas and I think 2gether got at least in my top 10. I think this drama is perfect introdution for someone who never watched a BL drama. It’s cute, the actors have a great chemestry, we don’t have mature scenes, it’s a college drama. Ah, and it’s a fake dating! We don’t have a lot of kissing scenes, but I really like this sentimental vibe that the main characters show. I really recomend.
Where to watch: GMMTV Chanell on Youtube.
18) Star in my mind
I enjoyed, I think it was a little bit overdramatic. It’s a college drama, where the main character was in love for this guy in high school, but he had to study abroad, so in his last day of school he confessed, and was rejected. Now in college, he participates on this talent show and have to share a room with his old crush. Everything in this drama happens because of misunderstandings, and we know this causes chaos.

19) Sky in your heart
It’s the continuation of Star in My Mind, and we have the older brother of the main character of SIMM as the main character of SIYH. Yes, you have to watch it in order.
I loved this drama, really, I LOVED. I don’t really liked the brother in SIMM, but here with the ML, he’s great. The story happens in this vila where the MC and his friends go to do voluntier work, there he meets this teacher that gets his attention right when he arrives. I love the chemestry between the couple, it’s soo goooood. It’s a 10/10 for me.

20) Fish Upon The Sky
It’s very similar with SIMM, here we have this situation that the main character is in love with someone, but he has to dispute the love of this person with another. Sometimes is very dramatic, but the comedy is really good too. The mc’s brother is so fun, he’s the best in this show.

21) 1000 Stars
People, you’re not ready for the greatness that this drama is. It’s so emotional, it’s so down to the earth, it’s so amazing and hearwarming. One of my favorites of the year.
The story is about this guy that recives a heart transplant from this teacher, and he decides to fullfill her last wish. So he goes to this village, and becames a teacher. There he learnings a lot of life lessons and etc. I really loved, It was a surprise for me. I loved the main couple, even if I got angry in a lot of scenes. It’s a 10/10.

22) HIStory 3: Trapped
I was really worried with this one after “make our days count”, but I had a lot of fun. It’s a mafia drama, and yes we have the mafia stuff, but what I liked the most was the comedy, I laughed a lot here. I think the couples were great, even with all the weird moments.
Where to watch: Viki.
23) Theory of Love
It’s a friends to lovers story, but with a very complicated development. For like 70% of the drama, I hated the ML, but the drama had this very smart idea in the half season that got me to like the couple more. I really liked the other couples, one of them made me really surprised. I recomend this one, but get ready to be angry.

24) Since I met U
Short c-drama with 16 episodes, each with 30 min, which tells the story of a pastry chef and a blogger who talks about sweets who are forced to take care of a child together. I thought it was ok, it's not a surprising story, it's that show you watch at lunchtime, you know? Lightweight, without many problems. I think it’s kind forgettable too.
Where to watch: Youtube.
25) En of Love: Love Mechanics
It’s a short drama, with 4/5 episodes I think, about two guys that hate each other, but one day they got drunk and sleep togheter. The problem is that one of them is dating a girl for years, and has no intention to break up with her. I should had watch Tossara first, because this is a continuation BUT the sinopses was so interesting that I couldn’t help. I really liked, we have a lot of problematics stuff, but in the end I enjoyed. After I finished, I found out that this drama has a 12 episode version that released in 2022, so I obviosly watched.
Where to Watch: Viki, Youtube.
26) Love Mechanics
It’s the longer version of En of Love, I’m so happy that they made this version. It’s really good and they fix a lot of plot holes that we had in the en of love version. I highly recomend you to watch this version if it’s possible. The chemestry of the main couple is 10/10.
27) My Love Mix Up
It's a really cute Japanese BL, adapted from a manga. This drama is a misunderstanding that became a reality. It's so fun, cute, soft jdrama. I really recommend.
Where to watch: Viki.
28) Ghost Host, Ghost House
I thought it would be about a "ghost hunter" blogger or something like that, the main character says he is a ghost hunter, but he's just tells stories about ghosts. And the plot does not even focus on him, it focus on his family. I don't want to give spoilers, but It surprised me a lot. The romance is very nice, but the family part is great.
Dramas that I have yet to finish: Today’s webtoom, Bad Buddy
Dramas that I gave up watching: Oh! Boarding House (It’s really bad)
