Plenty of time during quarantine,and a side of working from home...i know sometimes we get pretty bored and there's not much to do to entertain ourselves unless binge watching dramas/ movie. For  me, I just unwind myself with some Rom-Com J-dorama / Asian Movie or youtube travelling vlogs as if  i'm on virtual tour, haha. So here's the drama list of what I watched so far during self quarantine time. - ( i'll be adding more the list once i got something nice to watch.)

I'm happy to know that I've accomplished some of my j-drama bucket list. Now I can declare myself as a proud,devoted fan of Japanese dorama. I've stopped watching K- Dramas since last year and move on with J- Dramas (Don't ask, I'm total outdated with any recent k-drama lol) Particularly because I felt bit bored with their common plot and actor/actress. No offense tho, both has their own charms. It's just my personal opinion , I feel like J-Dramas plot ; idea is less complicated , more relatable in real life and seeing how the actor/actress dressed in such fashionable clothes is like gaining a new knowledge in j-fashion😊

What you've been up to ? I 've been very busy with work lately but it's okay , I  have the best solution ever to prevent me from stress. It's Japanese Drama / Dorama .Yeap, I'm so into them these past few years.Why on earth am I so late lol? I found the answer myself is maybe just because I'm too stuck with Korean Dramas till the point I'm getting bored but I still wanna fill up my entertainment needs so I decided to take a look at Japanese dramas.
And wow never in my mind ,I'm so hooked with Dorama! I still love Korean Dramas tho.. but IMO, I find Japanese Dramas is amusing .The plot is funnier and more straightforward. Plus I can always updated myself with current Japanese fashion trends just because mostly, every actresses dressed so kawaii!

Here I am gonna share my top 5 Favorite Japanese Drama (till now). Note that,it mostly in Romance - Comedy genre.So.. Enjoy~

The drama is literally the most unique romance comedy drama I've ever watch. Like how can, the main character itself is probably is someone who are considered as anti heroine in social life ( read; a nerd and a neet/otaku) but in the end,Love wins and the moral of this drama is to make us realize that there's many type of  person in this world and still you can be proud with your color and find your happiness and true love. The only thing that I criticized from this drama is probably the goes-back-and-forth plot in each episodes that got me confused if I skipped some part.Nevertheless,the fresh jokes inside never fail to make me laugh till cry !

It's the newest drama addiction just because the series is just got ended last December in Japan and everybody's been into this drama lately.Yeap that's maybe because the two main cast make a great chemistry.What a perfect match,I ship them so much! The plot is somehow resemble with Itakiss,an unrequited love that turn into happiness but in more realistic way.There's sure some bitter scene where Tomohisa character,Takane is annoying for being such a creep and too possessive over Junko  and I hate it but finally in the end I can understand why he did so.Ps. Somehow,Tomohisa Yamashita remind me of Jung Yong Hwa from CN BLUE. Anybody agree? kkk~
