Shorter CDramas
Many people are intimated by the 40 episode (or longer) length of standard CDramas. This is a list of excellent dramas with fewer episodes, ~15 eps or less. A good intro to CDramas without the intimidating episode count. And you may just appreciate the 40 episode length over time--many are excellent. Many of them are crime and suspense dramas that feature higher quality acting and production.
This does not include the ultra short mini and micro dramas China is also known for, with rare exceptions.
