POPULAR CULT FAVES I MIGHT WATCH
I've been watching asian dramas for a decade now and still haven't gotten sick of it. I've watched most dramas that have a serious cult following but the ones on this list are the ones I missed ( there's only so much a gal can watch). Nowadays I don't binge watch dramas and only watch airing shows cause I have to go to univeristy and work lol and watching a few eps a week keeps me going. But I'm going to use this list as a reference to watch dramas that I always get recommended ( I don't want to miss out on my next favourite thing, I'm bound to fall madly in love with something on this list!). I'll get through this list one by one when I'm on holidays. I'll probably have a lot I'll drop though ( I'm sure some of the older dramas have aged badly). I just wanna use the list as a personal guide but feel free to boost up your faves by voting cause it gives me an insight into how much people actually love and recommend it!
