So I noticed this year (and last year) that there's only lists for the Best of Korea/Japan site wide, and as someone who prefers Chinese dramas (even though I'm in the minority), I thought it would be fun to do a Best of China/Taiwan list as well! Even though C-dramas aren't as popular outside of China, I know there are still a lot of members who enjoy C-dramas as much as (if not more than) K-dramas and J-dramas! So I'm borrowing the list of categories from Skye-n-Rain (and a few small additions of my own) to see what people thought about this year for C-dramas!

Best Screenwriter (and for which show?): Yu Zheng - Yan Xi Gong Lue/Story of Yan Xi Palace

**Edit: I know about the plagiarism accusations that have surrounded Yu Zhen for years, and by no means do I think that plagiarism is ok, but honestly I normally really enjoy Yu Zheng dramas. Something about them always just hits the right notes with me. And especially Yan Xi this year was a HUGE success worldwide, so you have to give credit where it's due.

Best Director(and for which show?) ----

Best Chinese Drama of 2018: 
Story of Yan Xi Palace

Best Chinese Movie of 2018: ----


Best Mini Series/Web Drama: 
----

Best Romance Drama: 
Legend of Fu Yao

Best Comedy Drama: 
An Oriental Odyssey

** Not technically a comedy, but it had a lot of humor in it. Also I did weirdly enjoy it (again even though it had its issues), and I didn't think it deserved to win for best fantasy or best drama of the year.

Best Romantic/Comedy Drama: The Eternal Love 2

Best Historical/ Drama:  
Story of Yanxi Palace

Best Wu Xia/Xian Xia/Fantasy Drama:
Legend of Fu Yao

Best Modern Drama: 
Our Glamorous Times

**To be fair, I honestly didn't care for many modern dramas this year (or ever really. They just aren't really my style). Of the ones I watched this year, OGT was the best of them, but honestly I still had some big issues with OGT.

Best Family Drama:  ----

Best Action/Thriller/Suspense Drama: 
Bloody Romance

Best Melodrama: 
Ru Yi's Love in the Royal Palace

** If anyone knows the history of the Step Empress of the Qing Dynasty (or had seen Story of Yanxi Palace) it should be no surprise that this drama would have a sad ending. Honestly I think the story (even though really long) did a good job showing the rise and fall of the relationship between Ru Yi and Qianlong.

Best Actor: 
Wallace Huo (Ru Yi)

Best Actress:  
Wu Jin Yan (Story of Yan Xi) 

Best Supporting Actor:    
Zhang Yu Jian (An Oriental Odyssey)

Qu Chu Xiao (Bloody Romance)

Best Up and Coming Actress of 2018: 
Janice Wu (An Oriental Odyssey)

Best Villain:    
Li Yi Jun/Qi Zhen (Legend of Fu Yao)

Best Idol Actor:
----

Best Idol Actress: 
Ju Jing Yi (Legend of Yun Xi and Mr. Swimmer)

Best Couple:  
Ethan Ruan and Yang Mi (Legend of Fu Yao), Tang Yan and Luo Jin (Real life)

Best Bromance:  
Chen Bo Lin and Zhang Yi Nie (King of Blaze)

** I'm only about ⅓ of the way into this drama, but they have a really fun relationship. They're technically more Mentor/Student, but eh.

Best OST: 
Legend of Fu Yao

** There's only four songs but they're all power ballads and I listen to the OST daily haha.



**Note: I haven't watched Ashes of Love even though I know how popular it is. I have a weird bias against Yang Zi so I've been putting it off, but I'll probably end up watching it eventually. Otherwise I'm sure it would be up here in my nominations somewhere.
