favorite historical cdramas
welcome to renny's list of favorite cdramas in no specific order.
if you watch any of these cdramas and want someone to talk to, dm me on instagram @xinchxng !!
**note: if you see any random letter combos (i.e. dlc, aol, lst) it's usually me just making the name of the drama into a acronym. so pretty much, i'm just referring to the drama title.

1. Ancient Love Poetry
Chinese Drama - 2021, 49 episodes
idk what about this drama makes it like this BUT IT'S SO GOOD. i'm still not over it now. many people have left bad reviews for this drama but i honestly think it's such a great drama. the plot is amazing, i think it moves pretty fast but i've heard multiple people say that it's really slow. if you're looking for a cdrama to cry to and laugh to, i super recommend ancient love poetry omg.

dlc is and always will be my go to when someone asks for recommendations. this is also one of my alltime favs :)

3. Ashes of Love
Chinese Drama - 2018, 63 episodes
my first historical cdrama and i will never regret watching it. if you're new to cdramas, aol is a must watch. this cdrama will bring oceans from your eyes but it'll be worth it.

8. One and Only

the plot is amazing and it breaks my heart but overall the production and the story is amazing. this drama also continues into another drama titled "forever and ever" that shares the same main leads.
