#EYDC2025 Day 13: A drama you found boring

I always think that my being bored with fiction is on me, rather than the story. So this is a difficult one 😅. I will go with Thai GL drama Only You (sorry!), which felt basically like watching a series of very long (and pointless) ads.

Yes! I really wanted to watch it too but I didn't want to go grey (I think the subs weren't legit anyway so)!!! I'm so happy!

(NEEDLESS TO SAY, I am now down a nostalgic rabbit hole of early 2000s bangers.)

#EYDC2025 Day 12: A platonic relationship you loved

The sisters' relationship in jdrama #Asura. Compelling and thoroughly complex. (Who does siblings like Koreeda?)

"This sister thing is so strange."
Screenshot from episode 6 of jdrama Asura. Very dark scene. Medium close up of a dark-haired thirtysomething woman in profile. She's wearing glasses. There's a sad, contrite expression on her face. The closed captions read: "The envy and jealousy can be so strong." Continues from previous: "Yet..." Continues from previous: "when my sisters are unhappy..." Continues from previous: "in the end, it's unbearable."

#EYDC2025 Day 11: A drama that taught you something new

I don't know that I've really had that experience with any drama this year, but every episode of jdrama #ThenYouTryMakingIt has been like getting an extra therapy session.

#ThenYouTryMakingIt "Since then, there's only been this version of me who played the ideal girl."

I always know that when Kaho is in a drama her character WILL break my heart.
Screenshot from episode 2 of Japanese drama series Then You Try Making It! A thirty-something woman with a pink bob is looking down and thinking "Am I actually... quite the lonesome individual?" Screenshot from episode 2 of Japanese drama series Then You Try Making It! Two people whose backs are to the camera. They're in a park, the man is wearing a blue long-sleeved shirt and white trousers, the woman a dark blue t-shirt and a white skirt. The closed captions read: "I remember feeling lonely even when we were together." Screenshot from episode 2 of Japanese drama series Then You Try Making It! A thirty-something woman with a pink bob and wearing a bright yellow sweater is looking down, smiling sadly. The closed captions read: "And somewhere along the way, I've lost sight of who I truly am." Screenshot from episode 2 of Japanese drama series Then You Try Making It! A thirty-something woman with a pink bob wearing a red sweater. She's in the foreground and her back is to the camera. In the background, three more people are chatting away, looking happy. The body language of the woman with the pink bob conveys sadness and loneliness.

#BurnoutSyndrome STILL. *coughs (while covering her mouth)*
Screenshot from episode 3 of Thai BL series Burnout Syndrome. Two men on a couch shot through a glass window. The city lights are superimposed on top of them. Both men are brunet, one of them is wearing glasses and is touching the other man's thigh. Their faces are very, very close. The scene is quite dark and sensual.

Screenshot from episode 3 of Thai BL series Burnout Syndrome. A bespectacled man shot through a glass window. He's sitting on the couch, wearing glasses and a dark blue long sleeved shirt. He's staring at someone outside the window, off frame. His expression is quite frankly somewhere between starved and exhausted.

#BurnoutSyndrome Mutinous, maybe, but I appreciate *everything* that's going on all the time.
Screenshot from episode 3 of Thai bl series Burnout Syndrome. A brunet man in his late twenties is leaning on a doorframe. Another man is in the shower, its glass door clouded with steam. Screenshot from episode 3 of Thai bl series Burnout Syndrome. The man is coming out of the shower. He's fair skinned and black haired, obviously wet. His expression is somewhat unreadable. Screenshot from episode 3 of Thai bl series Burnout Syndrome. Close up of a hand drawing a man's hip area on a canvas. Screenshot from episode 3 of Thai bl series Burnout Syndrome. Wide shot through a sheer curtain. A man is sitting on the ground, crosslegged, drawing another man who is lying down on top of a bunch of laundry. The man lying down is partially hidden by a bed. The scene is very intimate and quiet.
