Daily Dose Of Sunshine - Tumblr Posts
Who the FUCK is doing the english subtitles for Daily Dose of Sunshine on Netflix?????!!! It's so freaking bad I want to scream, especially since it's a pretty good show. Why is a line as simple as "do you have a boyfriend?" translated to "are you spoken for?" LIKE WHAT?! If someone is saying "thank you," why is it translated as "I'm so happy?????" Netflix really needs to invest in better translators, or at least have them double checked because it's getting old and it's such a disservice to the actual writing of shows and how clever some lines are.

my bae park bo young ilysm
hiiii we’re back after a kdrama hiatus!! i finally found a drama that i wanted to watch all the way through.
i. the storyline was top tier. i felt so sad seeing that da eun was made fun of for her extra caring nature rather than being applauded but it’s really the sad reality of the medical profession around the world. the love stories felt so real and while it felt annoying to see deul re reject the doctor again and again i actually somehow understood it. even song yu chan, it felt nice how he wasnt ever sidelined, like i loved him as the second lead while still hoping she’d end up with the doctor.
ii. THE ACTINGGGGG omg fron the patients to the staff i LOVED everyone so much that it actually felt sad when the show ended. it felt like i was saying goodbye to friends. chang ryul made me miss his character in my name so i went and watched him being a crackhead as do gang jae then simped over him some more. he was such a cutie in this one and i loved it. park bo young served as always i saw some of the doom at your service acting here and it made me miss the good days so much. yeon woo jin was SO good i loved his character so much.
iii. everything felt so raw but at the same time it was so right, yk? like nothing felt forced but it felt like something personal is happening. it was truly painful to see what happened with kim seo won bec i really loved him so much.
this show is much like it’s okay to not be okay, in a way that makes you realise the tragedies that are so present around us, and the stigma and prejudice around mental illnesses still. please watch it.

2023 kdrama list
list of the kdramas i watched and loved in 2023
obviously this is quite late but to those who want to start a kdrama, this is it.
#10 - soundtrack #2
there is such a comfort in the soundtrack series. even soundtrack #1 was so good, but this new instalment, truly works on the og kdrama tropes. lovers to exes to accidental 'fate' encounter to forced proximity to lovers again. puppy dog male lead, angsty female lead, jealousy, wholesome second lead, it's got it all. and ofc, music.
#9 - king the land
many people did not like this drama. honestly, if you're watching a kdrama that is romance and comedy then why would be angry that it had romance and comedy. again, a true example of a classic kdrama, rich ceo guy with hardworking girl, mix in some trauma and employee-employer drama, and this is the perfect clichéd drama.
#8 - see you in my 19th life
honestly i just like watching ahn bo hyun. he is such a pretty man. storyline-wise, i feel like they did a lot of stuff, but the ending honestly disappointed me. shin hye sun, as usual, love the woman, what an actor, the second leads also did not disappoint, loved them all.
#7 - crash course in romance
such a heartwarming drama. choi chiyeol with the temperament of a wet cat, the stress of studies in all asian countries, not just korea. all the romances were so cute (barring the best friend and brother). one thing they could have done better was cast a younger actress for the female lead. even this love triangle was so cute and fun.
#6 - my demon
song kang and kim yoo jung really killed it with the chemistry. i mean, forget everything else, i'll just take 16 episodes of them hanging out. even behind the scenes reels will work. the plot was pretty solid, felt like a remake of doom at your service. song kang does a wonderful job at being both goofy and serious, and kim yoo jung did so good at the angsty ceo.
#5 - the good bad mother
am i surprised this ended up higher than my demon? yes. this was such a good show, the past and present layered together so beautifully. the villains seemed like actual villains, but you weren't sure who to hate until the last episode. really shows some aspects of motherhood through both the eyes of the kids and mothers. had a cute little romance as well.
#4 - the worst of evil
ji chang wook and wi ha jun. need i say more? i have said it once, and i'll say it again - so few do action like koreans do. i mean, vincenzo, my name, midnight runners, and now this, such action masterpieces.
#3 - daily dose of sunshine
park bo young wa sso cute in this one. i miss small kdramas with intense plots. mental illnesses were dealt with very well in this one. the romance was so cute, and chang ryul, my baby, i missed him so much.
#2 - alchemy of souls s2
i just. love. this series. so much. like, the characters are so well built, the storyline, the romance, the destiny, oh my god. please watch this.
#1 - welcome to samdal-ri
this comes as a surprise to absolutely no one. what a feel-good drama to end 2023. it was the perfect remix of hometown cha cha cha that we all needed. ji chang wook, my absolute gem of a man, and shin hye sun, queen of no shit given but too many shits given roles. adore the friendships, romance, calm setting, the love between everyone. please watch it.

I’d like for us to stop meeting like this. I don’t want to see you anymore. Why is that? It’s embarrassing. I’m embarrassed that you saw me have a meltdown, I’m embarrassed that you know that I’ve been to a psychiatric ward, I’m embarrassed that you know that I tried to harm myself, and I’m also embarrassed about sitting here, explaining everything to you. I also hate that seeing you will constantly remind me of all of this. So here’s the answer I didn’t get to give you back then. Please stop showing up in front of me.

Sunsets are my weakness 🤩
Jung Da-eun Headcanons (Romantic)
“🩺-nini: I just finished watching this amazing show and I saw no one writes for them :(
“tw: mentions of depression
“🩺-paring: jung da-eun x reader
Being in a relationship with her would be absolutely beautiful when da-eun is in a relationship with some one she loves them In such a intense way it’s honestly so cute
There are sometimes that she’s awkward around you but in a cute way not in an uncomfortable way.
Like in her mind you take her breath and words away from her because that’s how much she loves you
She would be such a good cuddler she’s definitely a switch, loves when she comes back from a long day at work and you just get her to lay down with you and gently massage her hair and cuddle her :(
karaoke nights with her as you guys dance in each others arms and sing the night away and kiss each other
gosh I’m getting so emotional :( at the thought of you being there for her when she’s at her lowest and is in a depressive episode
telling her all the right things and comforting her and also waiting for her to make a full recovery
you definitely visit her every day and at first it broke your heart to see your da-eun look so broken and torn apart but as time passes by she’s looking a bit better and once she’s okay to leave the hospital you and her mom and there for her :(
once all of this passes it doesn’t make you guys feel different if anything this has just made you guys even more closer and you understand her even more now
she knows now that it’s you that she wants to marry and have kids together and to also grow old with you :(
