Wang Yibo (from the untamed)

her fave tv show ever, seen it 5 times, watches at least once a year. Also her fave actor, Yang Yang (YY)  he's very careful with his dramas, they all have a good message, his dramas bring comfort

heavy focus on space engineering so also v interesting you kind of learn a few things about that and the ml fl chemistry is amazing!

same genre as the untamed (wuxia) + bromance

Fireworks of my heart, her second favorite cdrama ever because they gave a very big shout out to the Chinese firefighting departments (sometimes this live well do good Chinese communist-y propaganda is very obvious and bothers people but here I don't think that's the case and I also usually don't mind it) like they actually put clips from actual disaster relief actions and showed real firefighters I cried so much

King's Avatar was an interesting watch but if you like video games it could be interesting but even if you don't and just want something with no romance whatsoever and high focus on friendship and a lot of good quotes and messages about not giving up on yourself or other people then that's another 10/10

And a stample classic Chinese drama is Love O2O that one is a bit older and it's obvious and the FL actress is a bit problematic irl apparently lmao but it's a classic and very cliche in all the right cdrama ways

FL is from 'Who Rules The World" , Very unproblematic imo green flagged guy AND girl (rare to happen) just pure (unrealistic) love and one of the best brother sister dynamics I've seen on screen in a long while

it's the most drama-less drama ever like again, both lead characters are so incredibly green flagged and it's a high school drama but there are just No Conflicts it's so easy to watch doesn't cause you any stress but still manages to keep you at the edge of your seat I loved it so much

same actress from when I fly towards you starred in Excluisve Fairytale with Jun from SVT and that was also a good watch and I love Jun and he did great but she stole the spotlight from him imo

Stunning visually but frustrated the shit out of me tbh 

for some reason refused to watch it for the longest time but I'm glad I did, that was good, I'd recommend! 

your classic Wattpad fanfiction turned into a TV show istg

also really good and you learn a bit about navigation systems hahahahahaha

just the Reply 1988 of Chinese dramas

that's like... idk Chinese wuxia Frozen HAHAHAHA as in we love when two sisters don't betray each other even if everyone wants them tho
