If you don’t mind if they are Korean or Chinese dramas, a few of my favorites are:
*** Scarlet Heart (BuBu Jin Xin), Chinese Version S1
1. Princess Agents
2. Tribes and Empires
3. Arthdal
4. Tale of Nokdu (funny & exciting)
5. Prince of Lanling
6. Gu Family Book

There are so many good ones, but these are a good start—Enjoy!

So good! “The Long Ballad” is worth re-watching all 49 episodes again. It reminds me a bit like “Princess Agents”—Almost just as good (Dilrabi is a lot like Zanilla)

I just watched this (“Mad About Each Other”) 3 times in a row. I obviously really liked it. I wish it was longer! It’s so hard to find other dramas as captivating as this one! I changed my 9.5 rating to a 10. I wish I could rate it higher.

I tried to watch this on Netflix, but it’s not really working for me. The actors are cute, but I’m not really a gamer. It might be better if I actually knew the game. It just seems like there are too many things going on at the same time.

She turns out to be so good!

I really liked the last two episodes. It was a perfect ending to the story. I was thinking at the time about how good it was.

you should mark this as a spoiler I don’t ruin it for other people.

I didn’t know what to expect at the start, but I loved every minute. The actors were amazing and the storyline compelling with several different aspects. I will definitely watch again with friends. It was good for being such a short drama, but I really wish it was longer! I rated 9.5 or 10.

I don’t know how she could be “underrated “since almost every one of the dramas that she is in have at least a rating of 8+ or above—way above! I think she’s a great actor, one of my favorites.

Why would you call that bittersweet? I thought it was good!

Took a break at episode 8. The second half was better than the first half. I wasn’t going to watch this at first, but I tried it and they did a great job with the concept. Much better than I expected!

Really liked this drama! Lots of humor and many favorite cliches cleverly put together to make this one of the best romcoms . Loved the actors, sound effects and comedy! I’ll always watch more like this!

I am looking for this drama. I will try Amazon Prime Video since it is listed. I recently subscribed to Viki again since I used to watch dramas there. I watched one successfully, but others I have tried to watch require a 100% upgrade of $50 or let you watch a couple of episodes “free” (i already paid for a subscription), then they make you do the upgrade to watch the rest of the series. It does not seem right and I am extremely disappointed in this setup!! I guess that I just have to “vote with my feet.” (which means walk away!)
sorry for the rant :(

I haven’t read any of these discussions that you mention, but one of my favorite discussion platforms has always been www.dramabeans.com

I love historical dramas and I have seen probably most of them. This one is a unique romantic love story. I like the storyline, actors and scenery, but the hardest part was that I almost constantly felt like trying to find a setting to speed things up by at least 1.5-2x (not something I ever do).. I still recommend watching. I rated this 8.5 out of 10.

I noticed that episode 6 is missing on YouTube. I’m not sure about other episodes that might be missing. Does anyone know where I might find the missing episode(s) on other Websites? Is dramacool a safe website to use? It keeps asking me to install Flash when I try other websites on the Internet. I’m not sure if I should do that. I use the iPhone and iPad. Thanks for your help.

I really do like a lot of rom-coms, but I have been trying to get through the last hour and a half of episodes one and two and I’m sorry, but this is just killing me. It is way too silly and slapstick and not really funny at all. I thought about going to the end of episode three as some have suggested, but I think I’m going to need to take a break. I have no idea how this could ever be rated a 9.0. Maybe i’m just not in the right mood for now.

I was not familiar with the term “single eyelids” but I have always thought that Asian people are so beautiful!

He is also really good in “Tribes and Empires”

That’s one of the things that stands out the most about this drama — The female lead is smart and remains strong to the end. She stands up for herself and others and she is constantly training to be physically strong as well as mentally sharp. There is no pretense. She is intelligent, loyal, righteous and she doesn’t give up. Ever. She decides what is right at every single moment and her character follows through to the end.

(I can also identify with Etnaa’s question. It has been a long-standing pet peeve of mine when I watch dramas that start out really good with strong female characters who somehow get dropped along the way as if they were not that important to the plot—then I lose interest and the credibility of the drama is lost. )
