Editorials Light Dramas
Dramas that just aren't very serious. No need to worry about extreme angst or serious topics with these dramas.
Sometimes they're low budget, sometimes not. Most of these are cheesy or ridiculous and silly and sometimes just plain bad, but sometimes that's exactly the kind of content you need.
These are the kind of dramas I rewatch when I have too much going on and don't feel ready to start a new, emotionally heavy drama.

1. Bromance
Taiwanese Drama - 2015, 18 episodes
A little bit of angst because of the cross dressing secret, but mostly just fun / enjoyable and very over the top romantic tropes. The second couple deals with a health issue, but you can skip that storyline entirely and not miss out on anything important.

2. Splash Splash Love
Korean Drama - 2015, 2 episodes
Some very brief school angst at the beginning, but the story moves past that quickly. Some brief separation angst as well, also resolved quickly.

3. My Fated Boy
Chinese Drama - 2021, 29 episodes
-
4. The Eternal Love
Chinese Drama - 2017, 24 episodes
A few life or death moments, but I didn't take them very seriously given the tone of the drama. Near the end there's a brief amnesia storyline, but that doesn't last too long.
